When a giant magical screw falls out of the sky and impales you, be sure to blame everyone who lives on a tiny globe.
When a giant magical screw falls out of the sky and impales you, be sure to blame everyone who lives on a tiny globe.

When a wannabe e-detective blames all the usual suspects for an e-crime.

Process

  1. The accuser cycles through a list of his perceived e-nemies.
  2. One is picked at random.
  3. If accused is found guilty, end cycle until next e-crime takes place.
  4. If accused tries to defend his or herself:
    1. Suspect is automatically guilty, go back to step 3.
    2. Suspect is charged with an entirely new e-crime.
  5. If accused troll is proven innocent
    1. Return to step 2 and repeat ad infinitum.

The Circle of Blame requires sparse e-vidence and no legitimate evidence whatsoever.

Any mention of previous false accusations will be ignored, and will cause the person who brought it up to be added to the accuser's e-blacklist.

Basic Demonstration

Undirect blames indirect; indirect blames undirect. You should be blamed, but infortunately there was a musunderstoonding.

Argos' Axiom

As the Cycle of Blame continues, the probability that ghostlight will be named as a suspect approaches one.
