FoU
Orange section: how will these things you've learned help the town in this game?
How will they help you determine a player's motivation?
How will they help you determine a player's alignment?
How will you put it the thing you learned to use?
I don't know yet.
So you're making things up as you go along?
Aspersions: attacks against somebody's reputation. Basically, ad hominem. How am I attacking ad hominem?
Three. Fish hasn't produced enough content for me to make a good judgement on him, but hector's leaning scum a bit more than Fish. Because he's jumping on the really little things in order to "find scum".
Where is the attack on my argument there? There was a distinct failure in your argument on how I will fail to find scum doing that.
What other things should I be jumping on at this point? Perhaps you'd like to point them out? With quotes.
2. What follow up have you done, son? None. See 4.
2. None? I disagree. Do you mean no independent follow up, or do you mean none at all?
Pedantry will get you nowhere.
You have asked 18 questions, prior to our discussion. (
7,
5,
1,
5) and the only time you followed up was when you suggested UXLZ ask you questions, and juicebox and fillipk when I pointed out you've done no follow up.
Why have you not followed up on the other 15 questions? That's a 1 in 6 hit-rate for you.
83.33% of the questions you have asked so far, you have ignored the answers.
4. You have five points from the orange section, and you follow up with two of them only because I made you address them, and then provide one instance of having done so with another player.
What did your follow up if UXLZ's questions bring to the game? Sweet fack all. You didn't even take the initiative and put pressure on TBF to be able to answer one of the questions he asked at your behest more fully. How does that generate conversation and/or content, like you say you wanted in the answer to another of his questions? You're coasting along trying to look busy. 'T ain't a townie motivation.
4a. Okay. There's worse.
Quote it for me.
4b. It's still content, if not in depth content.
No, it's not. It's content based on a situation posited by you that probably does not exist in this game.
Give me a read on all the players you've asked a hypothetical quest...
Everybody: Hypothetical scenario: One player is an assassin who needs you dead in order to win. You have a list of three players, one of which is the assassin. What do you do to find out the assassin's identity?
... oh. Oh dear.
I'll be gentle. Reads on TWS, me, juicebox, fillipk, fillipk (again? you asked one person two hypothetical questions? You beast!) juicebox (hm...) and Weirdo.
Cite the responses from your hypothetical questions.
5. [1]The devil's in the details. [2]In your particular case, you haven't done anything of note despite your excess of questions on situations that may or may not exist in this game. [3]It looks to me that you're trying to look busy, and your responses so far haven't done much to change that.
[4]A specific example of this being your assertion you're trying to generate content and conversation, and your actions not mirroring that.
5a. Everybody but hector: Do you agree with hector's statement here?
Which statement? There are four. Are you asking people if my scumhunting is good? Everyone has different methods. Note: if you use this as a defense, I will refer you to your 83.33% of ignored questions.
Are you asking if they agree you've not really done anything? Why should I allay my suspicions because they aren't shared by others?
This is a very evasive response. You know you haven't done anything, so you're appealing to the majority to defend you.
Why don't you defend yourself? You're wasting my time and your time by not addressing things directly. I might begin to think that's your goal here, man.
6. What context am I missing?
How do the little things that make up any given player's position and motivations fail to represent that player's position and motivations?
6. The whole is not equal to the sum of its parts.
Thank you for the philosophy lesson, Mr. Cliché.
Could you apply this to the situation we're in right now, please?
7. What about my play has been "scummy"? Why have you failed to pressure TBF in order to bring him from "no activity no read" to "an actually useful for town read supported with quotes and shit"?
7. Good idea. Also, refer to 6 of my previous post.
TheBiggerFish: please provide a commentary to this post and the one I'm responding to in this post.
... wow. Just... wow.
Are you continuing to wing it here, too?
