Ah, well, yes that’s a fair point. Tho I don’t think it defeats the rest of what I’ve said being valid. Then let’s rephrase this as this being at least valid for the given situation we have, where there’s about 1/8 chances of obtaining 2 progressive policies.
@Wonderlander
I’m not really sure why I’m included in that group?
Its because between you me and picto we have 60% of the posts in the thread. 60.47% to be precise.
He’s mad because we’re talking more than anyone else.
As he hasn’t had such a reaction in previous games, this is out of character, adding to my theory of him being a likely King.
Sure is nice to know the identities of half of the Kings.
Too bad I can’t do anything with that info…
I guess I mean that I haven’t cast any clear suspicions on anyone, neither in text nor in my head. I’m still waiting for a bit more information and then I’ll play out a few scenarios in my mind and chose the most likely one. There’s definitively a lot of information coming out “right now” tho with knives starting to fly.
But I guess, it’s true we talk too much (ahaha, I remain myself… in the end… sorry for anyone I annoy) but I don’t think it’s fair to hold this against us. However I will fully agree on wonderlander’s suggestions in that I’d welcome other people beside the three of us to speak their minds/thoughts more if for no other reason than this game being more of an actual fun game if this was the case.
I would welcome more input as well, so long as it is well thought out and up to quality and based in fact and evidence rather than the rather sketchy reasoning given by wonderlander.
I am not really trying to throw knives really, I just find the knives being thrown at myself and Blackrune to be rather suspicious. Frankly, the only ones I can be certain about are Myself and Blackrune being Progressives and at least one of the two of akafa and picto being an OTK.
As for my categories I have outside that…
Likely Trustworthy
Usagi
Maybe Trustworthy
Star
Neither trustworthy or untrustworthy
Pocketyhat
thesorceress
Maybe Untrustworthy
Wonderlander
Rabla
I have nobody in the likely untrustworthy category, I just feel that we need to play it rather safe, so I cannot in good conscious extend any trust to those I cannot be reasonably sure of their trustability. It does not help that Wonderlander continues to seem to try to pit people against myself, usagi, and Blackrune, at least from the tone of their recent post. I want to be able to trust everyone here, but unfortunately this is simply not a possibility when the next OTK policy will put us into Oyashiro time.
I think that everyone’s paranoia is starting to run a bit high because of this, and that we need to take a moment and think about what has come up and try to find a rational and reasonable course of action.
If we do this and discuss, we can hopefully get to the bottom of this and see if we cannot discover the true identities of those who wish to overturn our vision for a better hinamizawa for all.
I’ll note that part of why I’m skeptical about this government is that there hasn’t been much opposition to it. I kind of wanted to gauge reactions by saying I’m opposed. The OTKs would probably really want to avoid a fourth progressive policy right now, and while they could bank on bad draws they’d still probably only feel safe if there’s at least one OTK in the government, so if there’s a chance they could convince some people to skip a 2-progressive-government, they’d probably jump on it. Looks like most people (well, those who post anyway) are fine with it. Maybe there’s just no good thing they could say without looking suspicious.
Now I guess I could interpret Wonderlander’s “call to action” as an OTK attempt to do just this, but I’m still unsure.
I didn’t even make the list!
Rest, you’re such a meanie!
Well, both @Rabla and @StarTurner are victims of australia time so they might not have seen whats going on for the most part yet, so theres that.
You have a point with Wonderlander’s call to action, but again thats not a sure thing. I do agree however that they may have realized that they don’t have a way of doing that without seeming very suspicious at this point considering the support that the government has for the most part. When that happens they risk being outed for nothing.
On the other hand Pockety could also be an OTK, sure, but we have no information either way on that and its just as likely that they just couldn’t speak up because of the pressure and are biding their time and waiting for a better opportunity either on this vote or another one to strike.
@pictoshark Neither did Blackrune or Akafa. You are in a separate category.
What, the “Schrödinger’s Trust” category?
That category.
Who in the hell hasn’t voted ye-
*checks PMs*
*realizes I haven’t*
Oh dear.
Well I’ve sent in my vote noooooOOOOOOOOOOooooooow, so…
No harm done?
Good job.
God damnit Picto.
I was wondering why it was taking so long, I didn’t forget to vote this time around, god damn it Picto and your memory.
(literally just peeked in before I can go back to my business, I just really wanted to comment.)
I think its more than just those two.
Who double checked to see if they voted following pictoshark’s comment raises their hands?
-raises hand-
Well, I was safe, but it did cast some doubt xD
-raises hand- Im safe too.
Worth mention that Karifean appears to be offline now.
Other than that, based on who hasn’t spoken since pocketyhat nominated me, it’d be rabla and/or akafa who didn’t yet vote, if anyone.
Probably, though I find it amusing we continue to post the most in the thread and basically none of the people Wonderlander tagged are really responding much to it. Just two unrelated posts from @StarTurner and @PocketyHat.
Oh by the way a question occurred to me while I was bored waiting. Were you the one who wrote the loli mustache OTK policy? I skipped the chance to write a policy so I was wondering if you wrote it or if you passed it on to Kari to write it.
