This is meant to be a joke. But I did receive a formal request of admission from cubedbee. So, I have decided to follow through and post it here for everyone to vote on.


I formally request access to the ghost forum. Death cleanses us of all evil. By my honor, I will obey the rules as a ghost and will not engage in improper communication to my ex-partner. I promised my ex-partner I would not divulge his identity, but I see no reason why I can not drop hints.

How long do you think it will take for the ghosts to decide on my admittance?

I think we should ask him to clarify what he means by "imporper communication." Is any communication proper? Please have him provide examples. You can tell him that I'm unable to vote upon his request until I get this clarified. :)

ask him for some hints...as a show of faith.

also, ask him if the sleeper's alive...and ask him to get me a coffee (this may just work out!)...

Tell him we will admit him as soon as he demonstrably reveals the identity of his partner. :P

I'm glad my public complaint got you to let me in before a final decision on cubedbee. :)

Here are cubedbee's responses to your questions.


Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Can you clarify what you mean by "improper communication"? Is any communication proper? Please provide examples of what you consider improper communication and proper communication.

First, I would certainly not cheat and PM a living student. As far as game legal communication goes, I would not post any codes in the game thread nor would I make an overt statement such as “Avi is the slayer.” Proper communication would be pointing out valid clues that could lead to identifying the slayer. An example would be “RedSoxFan seems very unconcerned about his stapler vote for a student”

Can you provide some hints as a show of faith? Not now. I’m not going to outright betray my ex-partner, and the hints I can give that aren’t glaringly obvious are few.

And can you tell us if the sleeper is still alive?
My first act as a ghost would be to reveal this juicy piece of information. The strategic implications seem to be large, and I can hand this over to you in good conscious.

At least one member would like you to demonstrably reveal your partner's ID before we let you in.
That member must think I’m as stupid as EC1 pretended to be.

PM him back and ask where my coffee is :swear:

oh yeah, and my car keys...where the heck did I put them? :crazy:

I'm going to send cubedbee a pm telling him that are not accepting his application.

Are you sure? He was EC1. Maybe if we let him in he can figure out who his partner was.

Leela

That's why I set up the poll, which overwhelmingly decided that cubedbee should not be allowed in.

I received this pm from cubedbee ...

We have a secret EC forum safe on another site. I have moderator status. There is a grouplist, and I'm not sure whether I can hide the status of a person who has access to the forum. If there is a way, then since it is phpBB just like this site, I will allow you access to that forum in exchange for you allowing me access to yours.

I don't believe him. What do you all think?

Negative.

Deny with extreme prejudice.

Completely untrustworthy.

Why don't you just ask him for the location of the forum as a show of good faith. Then presuming that it exists, we can discuss the merits of exchanging access. :D

However, I expect that his PM is pure hokum. If there is an EC forum, and I were a remaining EC, I would certainly not allow B^3 to continue to be a mod there.

Trust cubedbee? I know how I would like to comment, but the mole does not have access here (and must not get it, as too many people know the password).

Is there a living student who is interested in postcount? We should PM B^3 that he has just told us his partner is not ___, since ___ is too interested in postcount to post anywhere except RF.

Although I completely disbelieve Cubedbee's statement (+5 on the roll against illusions ;) ), I WILL say that if your last statement is true it does segue with my belief that one of the EC is playing under a pseudonym.

Bleh, this is all bogus and a bunch of BS. I don't believe we should even spend any time on this.

Unfortunately, the picture painted by EK was head and shoulders about my feeling about Kaput, which appears wrong in retrospect...

I've been in favor of lynching Kaput for a very long time, almost from the beginning. Hence, my stapler vote. Two problems .... 1: The Slayer has not oked Kaput yet. We can do something about this. 2: The students haven't been voting for him.

Avi

While I have always been a fan of getting Kaput, there is one issue. That is that there are now only two of what I consider "pseudonyms" left; Kaput and jadzia. 4sigma is somehow convinced jadzia is innocent, although I'd like to see the reasons why. If it turns out that Kaput is innocent as well, I'm going to have to rethink a whole host of stuff.

Then again, y'all said the same thing about Sunny, thing, and me :P

PS.

Why don't we believe that EK has been pulling your collective legs the entire time, laughing manaically to himself?

Furthermore, I believe Jadzia is not a pseudonym; she is just a newbie. The only pseudonyms I have found are Will Durant=Yoda and Kaput=? (not sure who).

As for the bottom part, I would not be against lynching EK just because he is annoying and it would serve him right. Anybody want to do some research and find out when he started being extremely vocal compared to him being suggested, voted, or stapler picked?
