TNP vs. Fulhead Discussion

Yes, I can see how the comment earlier in this thread:

Gracius Maximus:
Poltsamaa is correct on all counts.

To state otherwise is to be incorrect.

could be considered the opinion of an idiot.
 
Manipulation of the intelligentsia? Surely thats a euphemism for something...

*goes off to manipulate his intelligentsia*

:blink:

I do not agree with Poltsamaa that the jury need to be shielded from intelligent discussion outside the courthouse.

I am contemplating closing this discussion or masking the Jurors so they cannot see it, which would require this topic to be moved to a different forum. It is common in important cases that the Jury is sequestered to be removed from commentary that may influence their decision. I see comments in this thread that are subversively attempting to influence the thoughts and opinions of the Jurors. That is not the job of anyone in this thread, save Poltsamaa and AlHoma.
 
However, the jury is instructed to consider only that evidence which has been presented in the court topic. Anything posted here is not considered valid evidence, so why should it matter if it gets seen or not?

@ Polts:

I haven't seen any intelligent conversation outside the courtroom!!

Watch the flamebait. It'll be awfully difficult to interrogate me with a 5-hour mod preview.

My comment was no more flamebait than saying a comment could be contrued as a comment from an idiot!! But your selective views on flamebait are well known, Hersfold!!

Because we all know that humans are perfectly capable of removing any sense of, well, peer-pressure or being at all influenced (especially by those that could be seen as "senior" members of the region) by comments that they aren't supposed to be influenced by, right?

That argument is pretty bad, Hersiedear, sorry.

Thank you, Heft. Saved me some time.
 
If this proceeding is a criminal trial, and there is an automatic gag orer in place as to the parties. their counsel, and witnesses, why are any of them even discussing the trial while it is ongoing?
 
*wonders when people who claim to be acting only in their TNP capacity suddenly began claiming their links to other regions*

Who of the above mentioned people were discussing specifics of the trial?!
 
heh, I'm a gravedigger. :shifty:

He didn't state which Thanksgiving break.

(I'm working off the assumption that this thread is by all objective measures old, dead, useless, and irrelevant, thus constituting some definition of "spam", I am sure)

This is like some crazy soap opera. You don't watch it for 6 months, and you still know exactly what's going when you catch a bit while channel hopping.

*Namyeknom waits for the shocking revelation of Fulhead's moustachioed identical twin.

But you don't know that yet. See, you're still waiting on Fedele to return from the war, his plane was shot down over the Pacific, and everyone's telling you he's dead but you're still holding on to hope. You *know* he's alive because you can feel "his" lovechild kicking inside of you. But he's really quite very dead. Polts was wearing a mask at the time.
 
:rofl: :rofl:


This has been some of the greatest comedy I've ever read. Seriously, you guys should go on tour.

I'm not sure who to root for but I'm enjoying the festivities....er, I mean proceedings.
 
Poltsamaa:
The defence knows of no all-encompassing entity!! We know of Fulhead Land, leader of LexiconHead of the region The Lexicon!! We also, know of the nation Fulhead Land of the region The North Pacific!!

I seek clarification as to whether the prosecution is referring to The North Pacific citizen of Fulhead Land and wish the defendant to take the stand or if they are calling a witness from another region!!

It seems to me the crux of the trial is that Fulhead Land himself has made no such distinction.
 
I think the question is valid one. Since this is all taking place "in game", specifying which Fulhead Land you are calling to the stand is important. You cannot just say the Forum member because this is in game. The prosecution needs to specify TNP nation or Lexicon nation. If they are in fact calling the defendant then we know from whom the answers will be coming because I'm sure that answers from the TNP nation and those from the Lexicon nation will differ dramatically.
 
Surely the whole basis of this trial is that the prosecution maintains that there is essentially no difference between FL of the Lexicon and FL of the NP, since the same player controls both.

The minute the prosecution makes a distinction between the two, their case is weakened.

Nice one, Polts. Clever move.
 
I'm just hoping for a swift conclusion to this, and we can get the hanging out the way before Christmas.

Did I say hanging? Yes, yes I did.

:D

For all Polts posturing about TNP holding a kangaroo court, would you take a look at what he just sent hopping in.

The notion that there are really two Fulhead Lands is preposterous. It's a spurious defence drummed up in an effort to give him a leg to stand on. If the court allows this kind of shallow sleight of hand, it will be impossible to try any nation for anything. How easy would it be to dodge every piece of evidence by simply saying "Oh, that wasn't the Delegate, Great Bights Mum who said it, it was the GBM who controls Puppet X of Puppetland." Poppycock!
