C'mon. A Wizard Did It.

I'mma go for an oversight by GMs.

I've just checked and if you tweet from twitter via the web on an iPhone, it says "via mobile web". Quixote's tweets say "via web".

Well, I can log into twitter from my Tablet's chrome and it'll say "via web". Then I just pop up the Twitter app and it'll say "via Mobile" Inconsistence is weird, but I think we can ignore this for now.

Yeah but he's said he's using an iPhone. It's not really a big thing it's just a bit of a blow to suspension of disbelief.

Unless of course it is a big thing, in which case feel free to panic like puny humans.

Well, I can plot this: His Techno wasn't an iPhone, just looked like one. Whatever method used, it was tagged as "from Web", Tripky tricked him into getting the Stalker-rigged iPhone and now he's posting from another Techno.

Dispproven: His tweet's from immediately after getting Techno back are from web in the same manner as the ones before having Tripky join the plotline. Therefore, the "phone switch" makes no sense.

If anyone get's a WMG good, but I can't see a workable theory right now.

It's just an oversight by whoever's running his twitter.

So... wait, what are we thinking here, that Don got a hold of the phone of a stalker, possibly the one who's after that actress over there, and the guy is worried Don will figure it all out? What did I miss here?

I'm about on the same page on this as you are, hun.

You're Pretty much right. But our current guess is that Tripky wants to frame Don for the stalking.

Now that I think about it - why would Tripky need to frame him? It's not like it's theft or a murder, where someone has to take the blame. It's stalking, and you don't get punished unless you get caught. He didn't. So framing Quixote sounds like a crime for the hell of it. Any thoughts?

Wait, someone said he was gonna frame Don?

Well, for any crime you don't get punished unless you get caught. It may have been that he was afraid that losing the phone and not knowing what was done with it made him paranoid, so he hoisted it off to the nearest idiot as soon as he knew Don wasn't going to go to the police with it.

It was a theory that popped up a few pages back.

But, since we're concerned about Tara's safety. The hacker threats and all... The stalking evidence could weight a lot if she was... I don't know... Murdered? by Tripky?

He has decided not to look at the blog. He also found some 'shameful' photos of her on the phone, which Tripky must've taken.

More evidence for the Mann = Tripky theory, then.

I'll try to convince him to read the blog. His argument is invalid.

One mans invalid argument is a crazy knights logical thinking.

I'm thinking you should drop the matter. I believe you're driving him insane. The plot's been determined. You can't alter it.

He is making a Suspiciously Specific Denial. I think I'm going to lose the argument, but, hell, I'm having fun doing it.

Argument lost. I don't get his reasoning, Goddammit!

Read his section quote. He's already insane.

Trolling Don Quixote, one of life's little joys.

Also, dryu, your smile is starting to remind me of Cheshie.

You do realize that you could have just told him that she was in danger and being pursued by strange people, and then said that he should read her blog to get the information so he could help her? He is determined now, so it probably won't work.

Basically, the issue is that the pictures in the background are making him uncomfortable, and all the other stuff was just an excuse, though now his nutty mind is emotionally committed to the excuse, so anything else is pointless. You needed to give him a reason important enough to ignore the pictures from the start before he could make excuses. To do this, you needed to appeal to his sense of chivalry so that it would be unavailable to make the exact excuse he just made.

META: Though he likely would have refused regardless because the PM's need him to go into this blind for plot purposes.
