A discussion on iam:
Okay. So I am fairly confident in two things: A. retro is scum (99% sure) and B. far is town (85% sure).
So I went back and read mirth’s and then iam’s posts. The first thing that struck me was that mirth attacked retro right away at the beginning. It really seemed to strong to be distancing and there was no reason to be bussing at that point. And then Iam chimes in ever so softly AFTER I have made a stand
for
retro that he agrees with me. Notice how he says “I’m with sekinj on this one” (iam in isolation Post 2) rather than simply making a stand on his own for retro. He is sure to pair up with someone in order to make his opinion less forceful, yet still he evens out the retro argument making it 2 on 2, rather than 2 on 1. And then, while I get sick of Retro’s newbiness, Iam continues to defend it (iam in isolation post 8). Then two posts later he makes it clear his los is mirth, az, strife and that he is getting “a pro-town vibe from the other three” which would be far, retro and me (iam in isolation Poat 10).
He then starts out today declaring that no one should vote AND pushing the deputy to claim. He also has one post suggesting a mass claim (18).
His posts in isolation number 7, 17, and the first part of 18 feel like retro coaching to me. And next he begins his attack on me even though the day before he was getting a pro-town vibe from me. Interesting that he stops getting those vibes immediately after I made a case on him. His suspicion of mirth fades quickly as well. He then begins his pbpa by putting in lots of doubt about mirth (isolation post 19) saying that he doesn’t think she is scum because the person iam thought was her partner the day before was lynched turned out town. Now, that is very interesting, because most of Iam’s case against strife the day before was that mirth was scummy and strife was the partner. So now that strife is town, that suddenly makes mirth not scummy? He is reasoning in a circle. It seems like an easy out and an excuse to switch his case to a more popular one. Did you also notice how WEAK Iam’s “pbpa” of retro was? He only points out one post retro made, and he was sure to agree with someone else about that post rather than make his own stand. Iam is perfectly confident enough to voice his singular opinion about everyone except retro. Whenever iam mentions retro, he always mentions who he is in agreement with.
He makes 5 points against me:
- I don’t like the random voting stage
- I defended retro (which he thinks is fine) but didn’t defend Az --- I already explained this twice
- One of my posts didn’t seem sincere…
- My retro vote “came out of no-where” ---- ironic, because iam’s sekinj vote is REALLY about to come out of no where.
- I didn’t hammer Az ---- btw, I still haven’t seen an example of where I supposedly “nudged the Az wagon along”.
Now, after his thorough discussion of far and mirth, I find it odd that the above case against me gets his vote. His excuse is that he can see me as a scum partner with either mirth or retro, so I am a better vote. Now, let’s hold on a second… When in the world did he become suspicious of retro?? Suddenly retro is in one of Iam’s 2 most likely scum pairs?
Iam almost completely clears mirth in post 29 citing her response to iam’s big post… (weak). I also thing Post 32 is Freudian slip.
Ends by bussing retro without presenting any kind of case.
