Now, I wasn't around D1 so there is some missing context there, but I want to ask another simple question. How much of 2ndchosen's independent thoughts have come from a decision without an alibi? Maybe that doesn't make sense. How much of his decisions are made surrounding context already provided. How much of 2ndchosen's thoughts actually reflect on the thread and what is going on right now. 2ndchosen has intentionally chosen a thinking man's position, but what exactly is he thinking about? It has no variance. It has no meaning. Dann, you say 'well, it looks like they're considering the options' but that in itself is just decision paralysis. Something I believe 2ndchosen is very afraid of. Stopgap-- The only,
only
reason that 2ndchosen has decided that I am scum is simply because I was the first to do it. Go look at D3. Go look at D2 and how he townleans me as long as I leave him alone (hint: my focus was on Gamma that phase). Hesitance shouldn't come at the expense of simply not doing anything. I've considered the thought maybe we don't agree but I feel like Kaz has a point actually, that the attempts to interact were meaningless. A complete disconnect. I do however think those questions and things he was waiting on clearly show he has waited on nothing, which is why I chose not to directly respond to them.It's a bit intentional on my part. I wanted to see if 2ndchosen would pursue these thoughts without being spoonfed, but instead all he has to show is how much of a perpetual catch-up he's stuck in. I'm very tired of it. Let's rewind again.
Alchemist clearly got wagoned and clearly died. What did 2ndchosen get out of his Alchemist vote on D1? Who knows, not even himself. There is no willingness in their words, there is no call to action. They're each made from an outward perspective,
almost as if he doesn't really have to care what he says
. This feeling is exacerbated by his only
vote that day. He made this vote at #299! Literally didn't move it and just happened to be on the wagon of choice. I mean, that in itself is not scummy. It's the intent behind the lack of motion. He had a clear directed read on Alchemist and just never did anything with it. The one question he made towards Alchemist is so milquetoast in his #820. This becomes a trend the more you pay attention. Let's look at D2. Refer back to what I said earlier. Where is 2ndchosen now? I'll spoil it for you. He's saying a bunch of shit he'll never follow-up on in his #911. He places a vote onto NSG and does almost the same fucking thing he did with Alchemist. Just. It's all (hopefully) implied passivity.My argument is not that you need to be aggressive or confident to be town. Scum can very well push mislims or pretend to under the guise of confidence. My argument is that he has done nothing to be considered merely passive or thinking about the gamestate. I am willing to go further than this but I almost lost this post as my computer just about crashed on me, but luckily Firefox saved my ass so you there you go. Not a very dramatic finish.
