Great googly-moogly. I got really confused for a moment there. I was catching up on the thread and got to the end of page 4. Then my wife called me and when I hung up, I turned back to the game and posted that I wanted to re-read on
Red Skeezix and
Moody Mitchy. When I refreshed the page, I couldn't find my comment. I hit the "Last Page" link, thinking I was going to page 5. I was astounded to see that I had missed all of page 5 and several posts on page 6. Then
Ed starts confusing
Red with
Romanic. I'm already confoozled,
Ed ... I don't need your help!

I did not like the early voting on
Idle because I thought the case against him was fairly weak. His claim (along with
Romanic's) are intriguing.
But first,
Red Skeezix.
Some of your behavior seems to be quite odd, as has been pointed out by others. The admission that you didn't look carefully at the vote tally early on does not play well for you. However, your saving grace is that you and I are on the same side of the whole
Idle question, and that diminishes the loudness of your pings.
On to
Moody Mitchy.
Now,
Moody, I have to say that I started off immediately biased against you, but I had to examine my motives and I came to the conclusion that my suspicions were a carry-over from the Dr. Seuss game. I immediately squelched those thoughts, because that's unfair to you. I think it was
SisCoyote that said something about not carrying grudges.
I am put off a bit by the backpedaling on whether your vote was serious, just a joke, or then it was a 60/40 joke (and actually, I don't know what that means ... are you 60% joking or 40% joking?).
It really looks like you were trying to stir the pot and the grease flared up and singed your arm and now you are downplaying the whole thing.
Very fishy.
One thing I have found is that I get a weird feeling when two people who are both pinging me rather loudly are involved in a public fracas. I find myself wondering if I am being manipulated and being forced to watch something that I normally wouldn't be watching. It almost feels like there is a deliberate misdirection going on. Thus, the back-and-forth between
Red and
Moody seems almost a little theatrical. I was not surprised when you removed your vote from
Red.
Anyway, of the two of you,
Moody Mitchy pings me most at the moment.
