If anything, you should have hinted at this harder day 2, or outright said it, if not breadcrumbed something along the lines of "CK is totally town" after his name claim."I value knowledge, logic, and deceit.

First - Scum never tell the truth, ever? Kast hadn't claimed how much he knew, perhaps zdenek decided not to lie when the truth would work better. His d2 play doesn't contradict a bulletproof player. His d2 play contradicts a bulletproofThor665 wrote:
I'm in agreement with cow (presuming I'm translating correctly).popsofctown wrote:Is there seriously no one in this thread who is suspicious about the blinding speed with which zdenek achieved his BP status (if it works like he says)
First - if you believe his claim this is meaningless because he's town and is telling the truth.
Second - if you don't believe his claim this is meaningless because he's scum and is lying about the speed anyway.
Third - it doesn't even seem 'suspiciously' fast anyway.
Please stop burning your town points trying to get this lynch today. Pretty, pretty, please, with hot smooches on top.townie.
Second - Valid, the point of me mentioning the speed was <First>.
Third - How could scumZdenek trigger his vest any faster? Killing chesskid N0? I'm saying the day game does not support bulletproof-townZdenek at all, yet the night game supports scumZdenek rather accurately.

@pops: Even if Kast is right and Zdenek is SK, why exactly do we want to remove him right now? Starks have much more to fear from Zdenek-SK than town does.
I've never heard of appeal to probability. Wikipedia and the next two google links spoke of something with no clear relation whatsoever to my arguments.Wikipedia wrote:The appeal to probability (appello probabilitatem) is a logical fallacy. It either assumes that because something could happen, it is inevitable that it will happen. This is flawed logic, regardless of the likelihood of the event in question. In this instance the fallacy is often used to exploit paranoia. A second form of the appeal to probability is the appeal to improbability or an appeal to impossibility in which the odds of an occurrence are drastically downplayed in order to bolster an insecure position or brush aside something that is problematic. This form of the appeal often applies to circumstances where the actual odds are not known.
I already explained the SK nonsense, you can go read my post on this page about it."Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"-

Are you saying you have a townread on zdenek? If that's so, an you explain to me why?Thor665 wrote:popsofctown wrote:Is there seriously no one in this thread who is suspicious about the blinding speed with which zdenek achieved his BP status (if it works like he says)

@Raivann: Pretty much everyone else in the thread naturally reads that post the way Magua does. I don't understand what you're seeing, but you're probably imagining it."Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you?

This was your appeal to probability. Basically your argument is "look how unlikely this is to occur. Obviously it didn't". It's like creationists who argue that "it's impossible for all those amino acids to form the proper chain to create life". Just because it is incredibly unlikely doesn't make it impossible.pops wrote:Is there seriously no one in this thread who is suspicious about the blinding speed with which zdenek achieved his BP status (if it works like he says)
In other words, I find your argument that "well he met his condition quickly, isn't that convenient" unpersuasive."LynchMePls is more town than all the players I've ever declared to be townies. And that's never going to change." - Drippereth

If that's your only reason for voting me, and only did so because someone else did, you're either a terrible player or.... no wait, you're just terrible, town or scum.Raivann wrote:

@Locke - I'm probably just the dumb kid in the class, so now Kast can do a dance of self-rightousness and everyone else can stay perfectly silent and act like they "get it" but I really don't. Is it a scumslip accusation or something with how he phrased things? If so I think I disagree with how you're interpreting them - otherwise I just don't know where you're going with it so can't discuss.
No, I'm not saying that. That said - I am saying we shouldn't lynch him today.popsofctown wrote:Are you saying you have a townread on zdenek? If that's so, an you explain to me why?

I am happy with my current vote and I don't even know what Magua's case is.-

If you really need me to explain why I'm insulting Raivann's play at this point, you haven't been following along very well. I'd like LL to elaborate, not sure where he went. Let me word my last post as not an insult, maybe Raivann will understand it better;Nexus wrote:Resorting to insults, Shadow? How about constructing a decent defence?
Scum who are caught usually resort to insults. Convince me you're town within your next post or I'll vote you.
Raivann - Do you have any reason at all for voting me that doesn't involve something that happened 50 pages ago? That was discussed and is generally believed to be a town tell? If so, why did it take you that long to point it out? What other evidence do you have to support this? What other negative points might you have against me?
Which brings me to: Glorified, hidden OMGUS, because I've been on himall gamefor not contributing, for coasting by when Benmage gave him a free pass d2, doing absolutely no scum hunting, and ultimately sheeping. Would you have placed that vote had LL not? Probably not Raivann, though it's moot to argue now that it has happened. Anyway, go on and prove me wrong Raivann.
@Nexus again - I'm not worried about proving myself town, because if you seriously think I'm scummier than Raivann, you haven't been reading. Make me thinkyou'retown."I value knowledge, logic, and deceit. I love to pursue wisdom but also to manipulate and deceive. At my best, I am brilliant and progressive. At my worst, I am treacherous and cold."-

It's frustrating when I've been highlighting it all game, and he does something like that (which btw, is the same offense I caught Xtoxm for in his short play), and no one really listens.Nexus wrote:That's nice for you Thor.
Likewise, Shadow, I'm not too worried about proving myself.
You're right, Raivann is still scummy, but you're the one who's resorted to insults. That's pretty classless play."I value knowledge, logic, and deceit. I love to pursue wisdom but also to manipulate and deceive. At my best, I am brilliant and progressive. At my worst, I am treacherous and cold."-

ISO #153. You say OMGUS. Pretty sure that's a wiki term.
#141 Occam's Razor
#134 WIFOM
#10 WIFOM
Ok I thought there were more. But, you have used wiki terms
Definitely sure what they'll all mean, yes sir?
But yeah, your posts are generally one liners, and a lot of them aren't as constructive as they could be.Trans rights are human rights.-

I'm not saying it didn't happen. I'm saying it did happen, which suggests it was intentional rather than by chance. Of course it could have happened by chance. I'm not proving a theorem, I'm suggesting an increase in likelihood.LynchMePls wrote:

Creationism metaphors are probably not going to make a lot of progress, so I'm not even going to look at that."Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds.

Oh, I thought you meant quoting as in like, defining terms for other people. Yes I use terms when needed, I've never understood why people feel the need to point this out when anybody does it (and I'm certainly not the only one to have). And yeah, I post short quips. The fewer words you can get your point across in, the better. Otherwise you end up with fluff.
I'd say my first batch of posts were related to general d1 randomness and getting acclimated to this many people. Then my voice dies out as it gets washed over. I could scream "Lynch Raivann" every post and I'd still be put in the background. When people have an obvtown read on me AND are content to discard my thoughts for 'bigger fish to fry', it's not as much incentive to keep stressing things. I contribute where I feel I have something of merit to say."I value knowledge, logic, and deceit. I love to pursue wisdom but also to manipulate and deceive. At my best, I am brilliant and progressive. At my worst, I am treacherous and cold."
