Also, I too am suspicious of Powder Miner's disappearance, but it isn't as important as your scumminess.
Are you now?
Interesting that you FoS him after I vote him.
You've really got it out for Mindmaker, don't you?
If you can't see the difference then you have serious tunnelvision. Mindmaker asked and answered more questions and in greater detail than mipe9.
Bold part added by me. Stop throwing up your IC-asshole-shield and deflecting my posts. I'm clearly analyzing your behavior right now; Mindmaker just happens to be part of what I'm probing you about. About the bolded part here, maybe you can go back and show me what I missed, because a large part of why I was focusing on Mindmaker in the first place was exactly that he wasn't asking questions.
You think what I've been doing is me being an asshole? Ha, you don't even know the tenth of it. This is me being nice.
I'm tired of justifying my vote on mipe9. I stand by what I said. If you can't tell the clear difference between their playstyles then you're tunneling.
I never said Mindmaker's play was flawless but it was certainly better than mipe9's.
But again, I'm not calling into question Mindmaker's play per se, but your analysis of it. What kinds of progress are you talking about? Going from not scumhunting to ... more not scumhunting?
It's not your job to rate another player's performance. That's mine. So how about you quit giving me shit for doing my job, you smug little prick.
I don't have to explain my thought process for what state I think a player is when all some newbie who thinks he's hot shit wants is for more material to take the worst spin on to justify a worthless vote.
You know, there's always one player who decides he's got the skillz to take on the ICs and give them a run for their money. This game it's you. How about instead of trying to prove that you're hot shit by trying to knock me down a peg, you focus on improving?
Don't bother denying it. I know it when I see it. There are many things I can notice immediately, and little newbie hotshits are one of them.
Re: Powder Miner - Are you really serious, Jim? I don't exactly have any love for the guy myself, but come on. The lurker tracker has him as posting 22 hours ago ... only 2 more hours than IronyOwl. And I know I've seen you go 20+ hours without posting at least once before, if not more. If this is what the experienced players do for scumhunting, then it must obviously be way over my head. Maybe you can throw me a few crumbs of wisdom about why Powder Miner is getting a vote for something you've done yourself.
Oh, is all we're looking at the lurker tracker here? Well, you make it sound like I should be giving IronyOwl shit for disappearing for twenty four hours too.
Maybe when
this post starts to look like
this post I'll think about it.
I couldn't remember seeing any notable contributions from Powder Miner for a very long while, so I voted him for it, partly because I find it suspicious and partly to get him to post some more.
Also, why are you so quick to condemn powder miner? None of your recent posts have been hammering away at him, and you haven't shown any attention to him at all recently, which makes your sudden change of heart very suspicious. Given how close we are to the day's end, I can't believe that this is a simple pressure vote. You seem very keen for powder miner to hang for a mild case of inactivity, and I don't like that at all, Jim Groovester.
See the answer to Shakerag.
I guess you're right that it is close to the deadline.
Extend.
