But the mere act of placing a vote for someone is game related. Arguably the most 'game related' act of the game. Savvy?

How dare I get into semantics with you...

Okay. Yes, voting is game related. However, the reason for the vote (in this case, because someone else voted you first) is not related to someone's role, or whether or not someone is suspicious - it's not related to the game at all. Get it?

No, I didn't. I'm honestly not sure what else to say here, other than that you're wrong.

So? Sure, I could be wrong, and the Bear could be just as powerful as a lone Morph. But given all the secret roles and power twists in this game, I sincerely doubt it.

The way you said this, was as if they started with more. 'only' specifically.

The Morphs started with a numerical advantage - I don't see them starting with anything else. If I was unclear in my wording, I apologize.

In a three-party game? Sure, why not? I don't see what's so particularly suspicious about it. Pitch was getting ready to have to leave, and in essence would have thrown away his vote - so I put it to use on my other suspect. Big deal. Yes, in order to get Pitch's vote on Paranoia, I had to vote before Paranoia could defend himself, and for that I apologize, but it doesn't change my suspicion of him, and he could very well convince others of his innocence anyway. Pitch already has more votes than he does.

But the fact that you mentioned it in your analysis of him; implies that you used it in your thought process.

Insofar as I was going through each of Paranoia's posts and typing up my thoughts as I thought them, stream-of-consciousness style, then yes, I used it in my thought process. However, I also recognized it for what it was and acted accordingly - you can feel free to disregard that statement if you wish. It doesn't diminish the validity of my other points.

That since Paranoia has not seen a WereBorg- would therefore by default fit the 'standardized' actions of what a wereBorg would/n't do?

In that one point, yes. I have plenty of others, I think. And has Paranoia been a lone baddie before? Yes, he has. That's not a point in favor of or against him, it's an answer to your question.

Because I thought it was obvious.

No.

I kind of translate this universe to Star Trek (even though I'm not familiar with it overmuch) and I seem to recall there being Borg in StarTrek... so was wondering if you had slipped.

I'll go ahead and do this because I've been unexpectedly called into work and may not make it back in time. Despite Shasta's amazement, I still think Pitch is not likely to be the Metamorph. Ascribe whatever reasoning for my thoughts you like.

I miss the old WW crowd... Barrowdowns WW just isn't the same anymore. Don't much care for you guys' new slang, either. "Very town"? "OMGUS"? Blah.

Very town? What the what? Where (and what) is that?

Triple post! If it's any consolation, I think "Omgus" sounds like the name of a Transformer.

EDIT: Had a triple post ruined by a dead person....
