You sound frightened.

Working on a fakeclaim, perhaps?

You sound like you want to lure out VT claims to narrow down the player pool for PRs. Good job getting one already.

Nice deflection.

Goodness gracious. Every time I feel the slightest bit comfortable in even a fraction of my reads, someone has to scum it up all over again.

Hardly deflection, just didn't find it worth responding to. If you don't get why: I'm next in line regardless of if we do it now or tomorrow, and if I was scum (that somehow took several days to come up with a fake-claim) I'd simply not respond in the thread (I'm v/la).

So, tell me, why is it so important to claim right now?

Yes.

I was thinking NL then massclaim but I want the mass claim on a day where we nl and can discuss claims rationally. There is a good chance of my death. I was implying NL first but upon reflection, it should be hammerred like this.

Okedokie. I'm the Jailkeeper, I jailed Snifit N-1, Titus N-2.

2-st BP

Titus · Post Post #833 (ISO) » Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:35 pm

One of these two is likely a scumclaim. How are those two balanced together?

Each has their reasons to be worrying. Moving along...

Taylor is up to claim.

Tool and Taylor were prodded

I did promise a short bit on stereonets... I'll keep is very short as they're complicated and people find them confusing.
Basically they are a flattened circle that able to look like it is in 3d. The image below shows the stereonet with some data plotted on it. Each line corresponds to the strike and dip of some bedding plane. The dip is the direction the bed is angled towards with the angle as well, shallow dipping bedding is almost horizontal and will be quite a wide circular line on the stereonet whereas a steeply dipping bed will be almost vertical and the line will plot close to the center of the circle. The strike is simple 90 degrees from the direction of the dip of the bed.

Next stop is at a location called Lochranza, this is the first of our bonus extra stops. You deserve it after steronets.
Within a 5 minute walk of Locranza is a place known as Hutton's Unconformity. James Hutton is considered one of the fathers of modern geology and this is one of the locations where he found examples to back up his theories (another location will be seen tomorrow). Before Hutton people had a very poor idea on how old the Earth was, Hutton saw these rocks and deduced that because one set of rocks must be considerably older than the other set of rocks the Earth must be considerably older than was originally thought. The image below shows Hutton's Unconformity with 2 distinct rock types, the older has been tilted to around 45 degrees and eroded away with later rock being deposited at a much different angle as seen below

Scumclaim.

It doesnt make sense ti have a jk and a **2s** BP. He makes sure he has a reason why he isnt dead.

EspeciallyTheLies · Post Post #842 (ISO) » Thu Jan 16, 2014 5:30 am

So why are we no lynching instead of lynching scum?

JacobSavage · Post Post #843 (ISO) » Thu Jan 16, 2014 5:34 am

ATTENTION:

Please for the sake of sanity stop talking set up spec till weve finished the claiming.

It totally defeats the point.

I trust tool enough, lol.
ETL: we are not nolynching.

PinkMittens · Post Post #845 (ISO) » Thu Jan 16, 2014 5:43 am

While I also find JS claim very iffy I do agree that we should wait for everyone to claim first before discussing it.

toolenduso · Post Post #846 (ISO) » Thu Jan 16, 2014 7:41 am

I'm a VT.

shos · Post Post #847 (ISO) » Thu Jan 16, 2014 8:11 am

Kazekirimaru · Post Post #848 (ISO) » Thu Jan 16, 2014 8:11 am

So, I suppose Titus's claim is all that's left.

Titus · Post Post #849 (ISO) » Thu Jan 16, 2014 9:05 am

I claim very powerful townie who is conftown. :-p Seriously, I am not ccing anyone but I won't say beyond that.

PM, why did you always jailkeep me?
