I agree 100% with everything you wrote! It sounds very similar to how I was roped into listening; even my initial reaction to the first episode and my eventual obsession of the series was the same. Blog-style-wise, you captured the reader's attention with the first sentence (thank you!), and have a distinct voice. Plus, you possess a solid grasp on proper grammar. Sorry...that's a huge pet peeve of mine. Good job! I can't wait to read next week’s! 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
I can post more cryptic comments, and here goes. No where in the series do we get a perspective from an omnipresent source. Someone who is outside the character's eyes and minds, with one exception: The titles. 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0

PS- so far in every prediction blog Kc has posted some cryptic comment, and I've done pretty well....except chapter 19. His silence is deafening me right now....I might have missed the mark on all these bad boys this time! 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
@Jeebogs- I believe your assessment of the chapter title could very well be true. Hence why I said I was prepared to be burned on my Rat Reveal prediction. I just feel like we're leading to it, and while this may not be the end of the storyline I feel like it's definitely the beginning of it.....or the...middle of it....or.....somethin'.... Thank you for using the spoiler tags! 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
This whole post may be a spoiler so... SPOILER The title, "Our Doubts Are Traitors"immediately said to me that it's not the traitor as a person that will be the issue in this chapter, more the doubts and paranoia of the characters. For example, I think you're right, Bricks will survive with Lizzie and Tar, but may have a change of conscience, and eventually, allegiance to the Mallers (his doubts , therefore, being traitorous to the Mallers) Or perhaps the paranoia of our friends in the tower, being so suspicious of Pippin (whom, btw, I think is innocent of being a spy but guilty of perhaps leaving his friends to die when he could have stayed and helped) gets the better of them and they end up treating him badly, maybe even casting him out, leaving him for dead, therefore being traitors to their morality.... 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
I was just joshin' with you about the caps thing. I figured it was to draw attention and nothing more about it. Hence me making the the Incredible Hulk reference. It's not that the theories are dumb. No theories are dumb....some just aren't thought out all that well, and obviously you've thought through yours and they can indeed make sense. I still just think the mallers sending in one of their own is not very plausible in any manner. For me, its just such a hard pill to swallow which I will should the two rat (with a maller plant) theory come to light. 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
When I put something in capps its not because I am screaming or yelling at you it is because I want you to pay special attention to it and so you, Nik, don't kick me out of the forums (which you have already clarified you won't. At least not yet). So when i say this: I AM SORRY IF YOU FELT LIKE I WAS YELLING AT YOU AND I HOPE YOU ARE NOT OFFENDED : I am merely wanting you to accept my apology, although you don't have to. You misunderstood me a bit as well, when I was suggesting the idea of two moles I was thinking of two possible ways that this could have happened. -1) The mallers could have planted two moles into the tower before Pegs dropped the pot and all the crazy things ensued. After all about 25 people did go to the tower to seek refuge and we have only heard the story of two of those twenty-five people. So you and, neither do I, have enough information to say that this theory is improbable or probable, we can only wait until Kc decides to reveal us who is the rat or who are the rats. I now ,after re-listening to some of the Chapters, accept how dumb this theory might sound although it is possible that it could have happened. As you said they could have only done this in a short amount of time and could be proven to be a weak decision. But it could also be proven to be a greatly strategic decision. What if the mallers, maybe not all of them, maybe just a group like a group of scouts saw that a few survivors were heading to this tower that looked really safe and even had a sign inviting them in that said "WE'RE ALIVE". So they decide that there mall seemed safer than this tower, but still decide to send two people in with the other survivors and have these two people send information to the mallers. And if anything goes wrong at there mall all the mallers have to do is go and fight for the tower. -2) Then I thought of another way they could have had done this. What if the mallers only sent one person in and then they have this person find one of the more gullible inhabitants of the tower and convince them that it doesn't matter if the tower falls that there is still a safe place they could go to and that all the person being convinced has to do to have a safe haven they can go is relay the information to the mallers. This is a simpler more easier and realistic way that there could be or could have been two moles although one of them doesn't necessarily have to be a maller. And convincing the person being convinced would not have necessarily been that hard since all of what has happened (all the "things" eating everyone and the possible deaths of loved ones) can easily make a person agree to the idea of sending information to another place in order to be safe. Kc is a spectacular writer and has his ways of slipping pieces of information under our noses. For this reason I will re-listen to all the episodes and chapters and try to find something and use it to back-up my theory. After all you never know whats really gonna happen until it happens because even if you think you know what might happen there are still many ways that something is gonna cause that happening to happen a different way. 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
You know, when you type in caps, I feel as though you are yelling at me. And I don't like being yelled at. It makes me angry. And you wouldn't like me when I'm angry!!!!!! Ok so stupid Hulk jokes aside: All I meant to point out when I said I think I was the first to bring up the two traitor theory is simply I can see how it could shake out that way. I'm not even staking claim in it, I'm just saying I could see how it could happen...but the how it could happen requires soooo much that (in my opinion) it's holding on by a mere thread. However, there's not nearly enough information to right now for anyone to settle the rat vs. rats debate. You misunderstand me. I agree the Mallers are spectacular planners. They prepared themselves well for chapter 12, and for this assault on the Arena. My point was: They cannot execute their plans effectively and they've proven it twice now. They attempted to overtake a secured and elevated position when they attacked the Tower. Luck or not in regards to the sweat bottles: The Mallers did not execute their plan A (sneak in silently, they tripped the alarm), B (come in through the windows via ladders and firetruck), C (enter through holes created by the pipe bombs), so they finally resorted to D (Burn the place down....and they didn't even do that right). Doesn't matter if they could have done, they didn't do. They had a plan for attacking the Arena. Plan A got screwed up by The Man in the Pinstriped Suit. There was no plan B. Plan B was plan A Lite because they didn't consider what would happen if they were attack en route to the arena. So since they attacked the Arena with Plan A Lite: The once again failed to execute a plan effectively. I have never said the Mallers are stupid. I agree it is shortsighted to say they can't plan anything. They are a real and very dangerous threat to anyone that they encounter, and I feel sorry for anyone they encounter that would think less of them and think they are bumbling idiots because they are escaped convicts. I think Durai is one of the smartest characters in the entire production, I just think that he's working with people who aren't capable of executing the mission the way it needs to be done. And when things happen in the field that change the equation, they are not capable of countering effectively. Now as for your two mole theory and the intelligence: I present to you Occam's Razor. Remember, the Tower didn't take in anyone else new after Chapter 3 (except Kalani who wouldn't really work into your scenario of two moles as you're presenting it I don't think. I might be assuming and you can correct me at your leisure). You're saying the Mallers investigated and discovered the Tower within three to five days of gaining freedom from prison, saw it was a safe place to stay, but decided instead of moving into the Tower en masse and maybe taking over from the inside, they stayed in their shitty mall set up (that is deficient in so many ways), and sent in two moles before Pegs dropped the flower pot and caused a zombie attack which closed off their front door to refugees and no one else came in. Possible? Yup. Probable? Gets a little more iffy. Again, we're talking on our own opinions and odds are we won't change each others. I still feel like the easier way there's a rat in the Tower is someone turned their allegiance. Hence Occam's Razor. I'm again going back to something I said on WND on Friday: The Mallers just escaped from Federal Prison. Some of them could very well have been in there for more than 25 years. They were probably acting reckless (like looting all sorts of stores and playing with material things) before the actual gravity of what their new reality was sunk in. That's why it's become their main goal to find a new place to live. Consequently, that's probably why they attacked the Arena. "HEY! I know a great place to live! There's a hockey rink up North and we live in California and no one even knows what hockey even is! They'll never think to live there!" *later that same day* "OK....who would have figured that a shit ton of zombies were hockey fans in real life??" SPOILER And Grammar is to say that the meaning to take from the title is the Traitors has an "S" at the end because Doubts has one too. Now, as for an actual double meaning (and the reason I am becoming more and more confident I'm gonna get burned by the Rat Revelation Prediction) is simple. Break the title back down into the singular version and it would read "Our Doubt Is the Traitor." Grammatically, you add "the" in for the sentence to work and suddenly that's a whole new bear all together. So we might get ourselves a red herring, or a dead director/producer because he's probably laughing his ass off at us right now 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
~SPOILER AGAIN AT THE END!~ @Nik Hey I'm sorry if you were the first one to have the idea of two maller moles in the tower and were the first one to post the theory on the forums and then I come along and post it here.As you might have seen I am a "New Comer" and This is the second blog I've read and posted in so again A MILLION EXCUSES IF YOU FEEL OFFENDED THAT I EVEN MENTIONED THAT THERE COULD BE TWO MOLES WHEN YOU POSTED IT SOMEWHERE ELSE FIRST You, Nik, have given me something to think about. You could be right and there could be no way there could be two moles becouse the mallers might be too dumb to even think to coordinate something like that. But then again what about Tardust or Durai? At least they seem to be at least a bit smart. And you say that they didn't execute a plan successfully at the War? But they planned it perfectly, men looking at the rear, men aiming at the tower, ladders to get up (and even a firetruck for PETE'S sake).I personally think that the mallers could have overun the tower residents in a couple of hours, but the tower folk were just lucky enough to have two extra sweat bottles to use to aid them. Until the past few episodes we have been given some insight of the mallers , and with that insight I have been able to see that some , maybe not all, but some can be smart enough to coordinate a large scale operation and plan ahead. For example, Tardust was the genius who thought to go and destroy the Arena with the tankers and scouts were sent to make sure that the road was clear. (coordination), he even gave them an extra tanker in case they broke down along the way. (planning ahead). With the little information we have on the mallers, since most of the story so far has been told on the towers prespective, I think it would be foolish to say that the mallers aren't smart enough to mastermind a plan, after all some very successful murderers and big time thiefs in real life have been intelligent and masterminded a murder or robbery and have never been caught, what if maybe one of the mallers could have had been one of these people. If you ,Nik, can 100% tell me that none of the mallers are smart or have no imagination to think of something like planting two moles or planting one mole and convincing some other resident tower to join them, then I will agree that you have soundly debunked yours/sorta mine theory of two moles in the tower. One last thing is that Kc sometimes has double meanings to his Chapter Titles. Whose to say that one of the meanings he is using is the Grammar thingy you mentioned, but the double meaning he could be using is that there are actually two Traitors!! 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
@Nik. Kinda like Kelly. She may have been for the mallers, but when her stupidity killed Tommy she was all sad and regretful. Why? Because she's a lying traitorous liar! 0 Likes, 0 Add to Bug Hunter, 0 Grammar, 0 WAPoints 0 0 0 0
