Voting me here with no explanation? (or is the fact that I'm suspicious of you and your executive order process (not necessarily the final choice) enough to cast a vote against me?)
If my executive order process leads to the correct conclusion 100% of the time, then it is no different than your so called ideal view of the executive order process.
I'm voting you because I think you're scum: last time you were coasting and generally pushing bad ideas and things that hurt town to think and talk about, and I think you're doing the same thing here.
I disagree that even if it leads to the same result that it is no different. It could be, but the point is the opportunity to possibly learn something useful was there. And you chose to ignore it which to me feels anti town. But if I'm being fair, I don't think that means you're not town, because I would see you doing this and not thinking it was anti-town. So we'll just have to agree to disagree.
What ideas am I pushing that are bad ideas? or hurt town to think and talk about it? I call shenanigans on that.
My central idea:
Knowing flavor it seems to me at least very likely that being a Cylon is highly correlated to being scum, and being human is to being town. Obviously since species is separate than alignment, there will be some outliers, but that doesn't mean that known or suspected Cylons aren't more likely to be a threat. So expressing concern on ash (whom I do believe is currently town) and awaclus seems reasonable.
I just think that if both are cylons, then one will eventually be scum. So if Awaclus is in fact telling the truth*, then I can easily see ash eventually converting (involuntarily, maybe) to scum.
* I just don't see how given two choices that would be relatively equal, one would be penalized so much - making a difficult choice a virtual no brainer. Add to that that mathude was in fact not spared, something is wrong there. Maybe I'm on the wrong path, do you really believe it was all wrapped on in a nice little bow like that?
Of course there's a chance there both not scum. So I'd be fine scum hunting somebody else too while we wait to learn more. But as Dylan pointed out, it's really only the same people posting. So there's very little to go for jack, Robz swowl, WCD, space, EFHW, etc. the list goes on.
So without that, I'm still leaning towards reducing our risk with the probably cylons.
Do you disagree that ash and Awaclus are likely Cylons? or do you disagree that as Cylons that are likely to pose more of a risk than those with unknown species?
