I just looked through the TBF material, as
his reads (such as they were) had moments where they seemed quite real (the Tea nonread and confusion, in particular, feels like his actual position), and I had been thinking about this while away from the thread.
Not much on him (definitely has missed/skipped questions, aggressively unhelpful), but I did notice something.
I don't, haven't I explained that before? I got ninja'd by something that basically disproved the main cause of my suspicions, as I have explained, repeatedly.
You haven't explained that before. You explained the tone change, but neglected to mention that it was a read change at some point too.
This is strange from
hector. It's a gotcha moment that focuses on precise wording, but look at the context:
@Tiruin: I'm most suspicious of Pozzai. Refusing to engage and clinging to Tea just kind of make me think 'scum'.
I don't quite understand what you mean by that question. Yes, I' ve seen people commenting on my actions? Lenglon specifically, most recently.
Because I have something to actually pursue.
Pozzai:I wouldn't say it's that you are interacting with someone you know, it's that you appeared to be only interacting with the person you know. That said, you've stopped doing it, so Unvote.
Whoa there, Nelly.
You start this off with "Pozzai is most suspicious" and end it with "not suspicious enough to vote, however".
Can you talk me through this? Do you think Pozzai is interacting with these people actively - seeking out the interaction - or passively - reacting to something?
@hector: When I was writing that post, I was ninja'd by Pozzai having strong interactions with Tiruin. That's why it changed tone in the middle.
Hector requested an explanation of TBF's shift in one post from being most suspicious of Pozzai to unvoting Pozzai. TBF responded by saying he was ninjaed in the middle of the post by strong Pozzai-Tiruin interactions, leading to the aforementioned tonal shift. To jump on TBF for later referring to this as a shift in reads is a stretch. Nitpicky, the idea was implicit in the original response, and TBF is hardly known for precise wording.
hector13: Please give more detail about your thoughts regarding TBF's shift in wording.
TDS still has my questions to answer (particularly the Pozzai one).
what are you even voting for me over again? I can't even tell, especially in Doll's posts.
flabort: Quick summaries:
*
I'm voting you for selectively responding to questions, not giving promised responses, lack of engagement, lack of questions, and that strange focus on third parties.
*
4maskwolf finds your reads generally strange and manufactured-looking, highlighting a few he finds particularly off.
*
Doll is voting you (and voting you and voting you) for many reasons. Doesn't like your distrust of their claim, and there's a whole thing built on that and your redirect claim (overstated, in my eyes). Also emphasizes your lack of pursuit of suspects, lack of probing questions (quite a bit stronger)...
*Pozzai's on you for...honestly, I've kind of lost track myself.
*
Tea has a gut feeling, and finds your reads lack depth.
*
Lenglon finds the 4mask and doll cases strong.
I can't recall them ever making a power that kills the user as a side-effect
Doll's claim is to a great extent a variant of Darvi's role from
BYOR 7: a point-based system where spending points to act means spending your life. Also note Darvi's power Ice XI, which kills him as a side-effect.
Pozzai: Can you remind me of your reason for voting flabort, please?
