That doesn't answer all of my questions, though.

AN EXERCISE IN LOGIC
By LR

Consider this post authored by Chason: http://www.smbc-comics.com/smbcforum/vi ... =30#p68058
Assume for a contradiction that it was written from Chason's account, and that Ed is not playing a trick on you.
It is dated to Thu Nov 12, 2009 9:49 pm, EST. HOWEVER, observe Chason's profile: http://www.smbc-comics.com/smbcforum/me ... ofile&u=81
Chason has last visited on Thu Feb 19, 2009 10:45 am. However, this date proceeds Nov 12 by months, and he could not have been present to make the post.

Therefore, to avoid a contradiction, we must admit that Chason did not write the post, and that Ed is playing a trick on you.

Simple!

There is also the possibility that either Mage or LR himself is perpetrating this ruse.

I don't have to prove that it was Ed. That was given in the problem. If the hypothesis is incorrect then it's the fault of whoever wrote it (Sahan).

No, I wanted proof as to whether or not it was Ed, that was my second question. Though, I knew it wasn't Chason, I still did not have enough evidence to suggest that it was Ed. I guess I should have stated that the events two do not contain the entire set of probabilities, and it was possible for neither to be true.

Now what threw me for a curve was that the change didn't show up in the Mod Logs. But I'm not a Mod here, so I guess that makes sense.

Anyway, well done on LR for his singular analytic skills, with which he has simply connected Ed to the Chason post, indicating that Chason's return was purely imaginary. It's good he did it in a timely manner, or else he could have made covered his trail, making the problem substantially more complex, and increasing its difficulty manifold.

This is a thing I do sometimes.
Police said they spent some time working out if they could charge the man with being armed with a weapon, as technically he was armed with part of a fish.

Well you only stated it as one question. It's your fault that you didn't check to make sure that your propositions were sound.

Great, now I'm GreenCrayon and Sahan? I'm like Dana fuckin' Carvey over here! And the forum plot takes yet another strange turn.

Fanfiction writers rarely worry about canon.

Mario fanfiction must be so exciting.

Mario leaped with all of his might over the gap, and then viciously stomped on the goomba's soft, squishy head.
