Sorry Sandwolf, I started trying to condense the Rarity case to three bullet points but it didn't work, you're just gonna get rambling sorry

The main point though is weak superficial casing that pales in comparison to what I've seen of her previous town play, where she was light years ahead in high-quality active bulldog casing.

The vote on Hal would've fit right into jokephase as a sarcastic parody of an actual case, but she was pushing it totally seriously all "how can no one else see this?" then when she was getting heat for it she dumped out some quickie comments on super easy stuff like Squiggly and Chic. Then she made that similarly bad point against Steak:

which she's just abandoned and not mentioned again after people said it was crap. Then she showed up to very quietly agree with you and Amni on AC:

before abruptly falling in line with the whole stick-up-for-AC mood you bemoaned earlier once the mood shifted:

She's tried to make more effort in shading me, but it often comes down to just baselessly declaring my tone is a certain way. Which is pretty hard to argue against, and easy to use as a way to make my stuff sound dodgier even if she has no actual point.

Like look, seriously this is what gets me really ranting in Mafia the most, is not just being called scum, but wondering how the hell my tone can be that wildly misunderstood and if I have any communication skills at all ffs. You're already reading me wildly different from how I'm actually feeling and hearing my own voice in my head. So it's easy for someone to come in and just say something like this:

Like mate? You have seen me being a dick and being pissy. I hope you can see how this does not compare at all.

Or here for not having a tone... like what whole body of work is she expecting me to have the "nervous tone" in? I just said right then in that there post that I was just now starting to get nervous. And it's like, all I'm nervous about is that if I'm right about Rarity and wrong about Amni, it's gonna be super easy to get everyone swung over that way, so maybe that was going on when some people showed up to vote Amni instead of Rarity... but I do still think Amni is likely scum so it's not like some existential dread that infuses my very soul to be picked up in my writing.

Lol she says this while still agreeing with like every read I've had that isn't her

This is a slightly-long version of what most of us are looking at.

That said, a weekend deadline with 14 votes total needed to lunch and under four hours to go gives me pause about too much moving around. I�d like to make sure people are going to be around and/or enough people are in agreement before things get split up too much.

I will vote there to prevent a no-execute, but will not work to advance the case.

It�s not even so much that you mentioned me, but the bolded piece interests me. Especially since your vote is currently the only one on IA. If you aren�t willing to make a case on anyone because it�s late in the day, why aren�t you simply voting the vote leader and being done with it? What else is going to change minds besides casing?

Yes you are the IS I am referring to, at least I am assuming it's you based on the AV. And I'm not sure exactly what is pinging me about you, but I definitely noticed something off. With more days I'll dig deeper into the feeling, but right now I'm comfortable with saying gut.

Finishing up on Page 15, and while Rarity is the vote today, Amni is another poster worth looking at imo

Amnistar posted:

I don't agree that I'm ignoring posts. My primary read on AC comes from the fact that they immediately pressed for more information about a claim early in the day. My secondary reason for thinking them scum is that their most recent jump onto the Rarity vote, one of the two vote leaders, with a case that is...meh. Yes, I'm not talking about other posts, but that's simply because they don't make me think they are or aren't scum.

apostateCourier posted:

you still won't say why pressing for information is bad??

This is the "press[ing] for more information about a claim"

apostateCourier posted:

I know it's day 1 but is there a why?

Calling that a press about a claim is weird phrasing intended to get a reaction. Asking questions is not a scummy thing.

Amnistar posted:

without rereading the thread my opinion of Rarity is:

I don't know I haven't read anything they've posted.

Amnistar posted:

More specifically, it's a 24 person game and trying to keep up with everything means that I'm keeping up with no one, so I'm skimming right now and paying attention to people that jump out at me. Rarity has not jumped out at me so I have no current opinion, will go reread since you asked though Yami.

I also do not believe this to be true. While I'm not going to go back to count posts up to this point, Rarity is the highest poster in the game now and I'd be surprised if she hadn't been on every page, which would make it hard to not have an opinion on them! And like this

Amnistar posted:

Not because they voted rarity, but because they voted for the vote leader based on "new" posts, in an attempt to differentiate themselves from others which is a thing scum do to make it seem like they're not bandwagoning.

Just reads as a gotcha to me. If AC had repeated the previous stuff, I am 100% sure Amni would have called them out for +1ing.

Sorry Sandwolf, I started trying to condense the Rarity case to three bullet points but it didn't work, you're just gonna get rambling sorry

The main point though is weak superficial casing that pales in comparison to what I've seen of her previous town play, where she was light years ahead in high-quality active bulldog casing.

The vote on Hal would've fit right into jokephase as a sarcastic parody of an actual case, but she was pushing it totally seriously all "how can no one else see this?" then when she was getting heat for it she dumped out some quickie comments on super easy stuff like Squiggly and Chic. Then she made that similarly bad point against Steak:

which she's just abandoned and not mentioned again after people said it was crap. Then she showed up to very quietly agree with you and Amni on AC:

before abruptly falling in line with the whole stick-up-for-AC mood you bemoaned earlier once the mood shifted:

She's tried to make more effort in shading me, but it often comes down to just baselessly declaring my tone is a certain way. Which is pretty hard to argue against, and easy to use as a way to make my stuff sound dodgier even if she has no actual point.

Like look, seriously this is what gets me really ranting in Mafia the most, is not just being called scum, but wondering how the hell my tone can be that wildly misunderstood and if I have any communication skills at all ffs. You're already reading me wildly different from how I'm actually feeling and hearing my own voice in my head. So it's easy for someone to come in and just say something like this:

Like mate? You have seen me being a dick and being pissy. I hope you can see how this does not compare at all.

Or here for not having a tone... like what whole body of work is she expecting me to have the "nervous tone" in? I just said right then in that there post that I was just now starting to get nervous. And it's like, all I'm nervous about is that if I'm right about Rarity and wrong about Amni, it's gonna be super easy to get everyone swung over that way, so maybe that was going on when some people showed up to vote Amni instead of Rarity... but I do still think Amni is likely scum so it's not like some existential dread that infuses my very soul to be picked up in my writing.

Lol she says this while still agreeing with like every read I've had that isn't her
