##UNVOTE: EphraimOkay, it seems Yakumo's... calling me out in a subtle way to explain who I rather else vote. I'm terribly curious to enter the next day to see if any better suspicions arise, or if anything happens the next day that gives us a better shot at pinning the scum.
I've been reading Ephraim's posts a few times over again, and it still doesn't sit me entirely right to lynch him, even though he's acting hella suspicious and I still want that explanation from him why he said it was better to vote EvilTom off. I'm rescinding my vote for now to avoid someone from pushing him over the edge and KO'ing him, then, despite my anxiety to get this day over with. Scummy? I don't think so, but fact of the matter is that we're running in circles, analyzing every bit of anyone who's posted.
As far as the other people who I suspect.
---------
Carthrat: No matter what you say that he normally acts like this, I still feel very suspicious about Carthrat. I don't
care I'm a newcomer, and I don't
care whether I know how he plays or not. If my lack of knowing him is a serious issue for being able to suspect him, then the fault lies with you and not with me. I find his behaviour suspicious, starting with what the bad ring I got from the initial stage where everyone focused on me instead, and continuing on even now.
I will clarify my vote, at least; Ephraim's stance on deliberately attaching more suspicious to 'better' players, the ranting over how day 1 is a bad time to do anything, the encouragement over waiting for roles and day2 instead. In his latest post, too, the whole "I'll kill myself, don't worry," thing... do not like at all.
It is a given that one must be more wary of the craftiest players than the dimwitted players, (although I don't think the latter group is present in this game, unless I place myself in it). Are you, yourself though, not advocating
precisely the same? At least when everyone piled on me, the accusations against me were better grounded than lynching someone on account that he wants to move onward to a stage where we have a better overview.
This does not mean I am against your idea to lynch him; In fact, I still find his actions I previously highlighted and requested him on to be suspicious, and he's done nothing to alleviate that suspicion. But you attack him for a wholly different reason, and this I find suspicious.
If anyone comes out now and says, "That's how Carthrat always behaves!" ... Please save yourself the trouble, because if this is just going to be a game where it'll basically be, "Hey, you're new, so you don't know how everyone plays, and so-and-so isn't being suspicious at all given how they usually act", then you don't have to count on me to cast suspicions around a lot because I am getting a bloody bit tired about how everyone seems to jump on me for being "highly suspicious" in behaviour and analyzing every bloody thing I do, while disregarding any suspicion I make to someone
I feel strongly about. Seriously, stop using the argument "That's how he usually acts" and start using a bloody real argument.
Right, had to get that out for a moment. Next suspect.

EvilTom: Voted on Carthrat for basically the same reasons I did, but skillfully remained under the radar. At first he says, "Hey, that looks scummy to me... And it looks scummy to Bardiche, too!" And then the next second he accuses
me of being scummy after first sharing a suspicion with me. We both saw the same thing, we both felt the same way about Carthrat's actions at that point, why then suddenly do you find my accusation of Carthrat to be scum and yours to be free of it?
And as I type that, I remember that Bardiche hasn't actually said anything since the debate began. I find the sudden absence a bit disconcerting, so I'd like to hear from Bardiche on this. Come on Bardiche, your thoughts and opinions?
I was asleep, yet when everyone was busy trying to get you to explain yourself, you tried to get the discussion off on me, and succeeded. How is it disconcerting that someone goes away and doesn't even sign up to the boards? Moreover, if you recall, EvilTom never really withdrew his vote on Carthrat, either; He simply failed to unvote before voting Carthrat.
--------
Strago: Yes, you too. Your entire vote on me (In before "OMGUS") is based on two things: 1) The fact I remarked that I
could be scum because I have no way to proof I am not and 2) My personality in which I am simply not that strong in defending myself in excess. That seems like a wholly weak basis to vote, to me, and you didn't even mention anything about my admittedly badly construed suspicion against Carthrat. At first you say you don't want to vote me, and then cite Otacon's "pressure" of saying that terrorists grow stronger over time as being the deciding factor to vote me.
When questioned on it, you stick to your guns by citing, again, that I said "I could be scum", whereupon your entire vote on me seems to be justified by.
Miraculously, no one found this any bit suspicious. Seriously. What?

Posting more in a sec, don't want to make posts that are tl;dr all at once.
Also, got ninja'd by three people. Reading after this.
