spacing in vienna posted:I can't tell if this post feels scummy to me because I disagree with it, or if it feels scummy to me because I'm not sure that you believe all of it. But it's ringing some bells. How are words alone pressure when there is zero threat behind those words? It annoys me that Amni is pretending like I couldn’t possibly just go after Steak because I thought something was there, no, it has to be because of the immense ~~pressure~~ I felt from his case which boils down to making some jokes

Bifauxnen posted:Thank you for showing up and demonstrating how it's possible to actually describe a difference of opinion on a case in a rational way. Dragon however, was not capable of this, only going "man Bif's early D1 case is just so crazybad and totally unbelievable and unconvincing and not even a case" Btw I didn't respond to it specifically but this was why I went back and refocused on you vs dragonatrix. I don't think dragonatrix being scum hinges on hum being scum, though. Coming in and saying that you worked up a huge case but you're definitely town, but so is hum -- a scum dragonatrix could do that just to be on the "see, they were town after all" side of any townie flips, and use that to talk himself back into buying you or hum as scum once the other flips.

Townies and scum make cases, people are swayed, and then lunches happen. I wasn't talking about pressure in the context of whether or not you were feeling it, as amni implied, but rather whether or not words count as pressure, and I think they do.

Townies and scum make cases, people are swayed, and then lunches happen. I guess in my mind, there has to be some effect on the recipient for it to be pressure. If I had announced at the beginning of day 0 that I was a n0 cop and I had a scum result on Amni, there’s no pressure even though I said words that could conceivably result in Amni’s lunch. The game literally doesn’t allow for that claim, everyone knows it’s false. There’s no pressure But that has nothing to do with actual scum hunting. What do you think about Amni’s case on me, semantics aside? I think Amni fabricated the case. Compared to Sandwolf’s suspicion of me, which I believe for now, I just don’t see how someone could look at the posts in context and think that I was setting up outs for myself.

Those posts aren’t the reason I’m slightly suspicious of you, YPM, and I do agree with you that I think they’re a little bit extrapolating from your posts. Though I think in total this attempt to figure out what pressure is is largely a waste of time

let's be real there probably isn't enough people active to get to fancy with voting solus is a nothing vote and I don't think scum would do something so brazenly dumb as that, so maybe steak and etr are ok unsure. hum or AA gang

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to suggest that you agreed with Amni’s case, I meant that I believe you when you say that you find my posting style in general is scummy. When you say they are extrapolating, are you referring to Amni? And do you think it’s a town or a scum extrapolation?

The thing is, I liked his posts more than yours at first read, and went to read your posts alone to find direct quotes for what I thought he was calling out ... And when I did that, your posts seemed fine and I couldn't find what I was looking for at all. So I'm rereading now and trying to figure out wtf. So my answer to that is "please hold" and is also going to hinge a bit on what amni says to my question.

Your Personal Muse posted:I honestly think this is a scum post. Note that at the time Steak wrote this, two people had voted him for saying he wanted to wait (hum voted him earlier for running grudge reasons I guess). It reads as scum who is over exaggerating the danger they are in. Amni, did you miss this? Because this is pretty clearly ypm going "... Hang on, I was joke voting steak, but now I want that to be a real vote, because I think that's a scum post from him." I don't know that I buy that you were confused about this.

I don't see where the confusion is. My entire initial case is that the post about steak and gamer both have just enough of a joke vibe to them that they can be excused and discarded or referenced as an actual case.
