I think this is dgb trying to overinflate his scumminess and force this wagon. He's at l-2, there's several irl days left in the phase, i'm not following why we're at the point where he needs to claim

3031 is an accurate analysis but takes no stance. 3032 is plausible and addresses why you haven't come into the day pushing my slot but isn't like particularly insightful.

They're fine posts but not beacons of town light. You came in a bit aggressive on Pooky early in the day and had an awkward engagement. I'm concerned about you standing pat for the most part and not engaging more directly with that read on me before I asked.

"takes a pretty neutral stance" might be a better description for 3031, which is different than no stance at all.

Correct.

Somebody has to shake up the game's lurkdom.

He last posted Dec 9. Maybe we'll get a replacement? We'll see then.

pooky came in saying that he never busses d1 (and is therefore town)

I'm not taking that at face value, since, if he were scum, you know, he'd argue the same, yeah?

You asked why I wasn't the biggest fan of the posts. How I feel in reaction to them is very up to me.

They addressed my questions in plausible but not particularly persuasive ways. I didn't hate them but what I took from them was that I was right to be concerned.

Can you be more specific?

At the risk of strawmanning, it feels like you're expecting that if I accept an explanation as reasonable/plausible that I have to accept you as town or your response as likely true. Understanding why you would have a reaction as town does not mean that I have to view it as the most likely option.

I appreciated you answering the questions but like, you don't become town to me for answering reasonably. We answer things reasonably all the time as scum.

If by "moving the goalposts" you think there's a conflict between my original phrase of "not the biggest fan" and later "They were fine posts but not beacons of town light", the latter is referring to the fact that while there was nothing blatantly wrong with them, they reinforced the concerns that led me to ask to begin with.

On a scale of 1-5 where 1 is hate, 5 is love, I'd give the posts a 2.

you didn't advertise any particular goal or trajectory here, so when you go "yeah that's plausible but i'm not convinced" or that you're "not the biggest fan" i have no idea what you mean, and i inferred from your response that you thought my answers were scummy and wanted to drill down into why you think that
