Skimmed the thread, read Seamus's long post, and have some replies.

Seamus:

I dislike the term hunch. I prefer to call it direct esoteric knowledge that surpasses systems of logic and reasoning, language, and sense perception. Rest assured that you were not voted for by me because of reputation: I don't understand why you would knock reputation when you suggest that it is a reason why you are receiving votes and then go on and claim my hunch doesn't have reputation backing it. Sigurd claimed this reason before too, and again it was not true. I agree that it probably play a part in some peoples mind (in some cases mine as well), but you all know how I have notably been a victim of reputation. Also, I do believe that the differences between players is minimal. Also, on the issue of being known, recently I haven't played with "older" people like you and Sigurd much at all when compared with "newer" players like taka.

On khaan, I don't know the particulars of his case against you and will not comment on its value (though my not reading it may correctly suggest that I am not too fond of it - if it's not plainly apparent I am eschewing other people's analytical attempts at solving this case this game - feeling out another playstyle - if it appears I am using analytical methods myself, rest assured they are either ploys to articulate to the town in a manner more palatable to them or refutations of other analysis's for the same reason).

On White_eyes:D I have no idea why he and I have voted together so much together, but he and I are in no way associated this game.
