So, why not correct the misconception right at the beginning instead of blowing up the thread? Or maybe I'm mis-interpreting this?

Cabd replaces AsuStuckey.
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

I have done so repeatedly, and immediately from the moment you made the claim.

The spoilered provides sample posts but they are often only a small slice of a much larger, 20-70 page back and forth, and I link to the games directly underneath the screenshots. Sample 3, Replica in Undertale, is a sterling example.

Would like to address this for the class though...

Caught for the wrong reasons is a syndrome of scum-not town.

Defensiveness is NAI, however OTT defensiveness I've found comes from scum-more than town.
What even is OTT defensiveness?

Also in response to , That's also probably the rarest case, and why no one ever quick hammers as town (especially in my past games). Even then it still doesn't ever look good, and always warrants attention to the person who quickhammered.

Okay, so.... going through StrangeMatter's ISO -

It wasn't terribly long or hard. I liked that they kinda went to bat for me against Prism but I think that's just me wanting validation more so than anything concrete.

I did notice that there wasn't and STILL isn't a clear vote for pressure or scum or anything really. There are a few reads put out there and a few comments, but honestly I don't see any or very little scum-hunting here. A lot of it is just sitting back and commenting.

This wouldn't be a bad vote for today and I could get behind it.

Wasn't that like after blowing up the thread? Saying something like maybe you missed this? What do you think my post here and here are doing?

And actually reading the room... I'm thinking about going here.

It was my second post after you made the defensiveness claim, 15 minutes afterwards because I had to screenshot and dig up links. What the fuck are you talking about by saying I should have done it sooner?

Go look for yourself instead of outsourcing it to me 24/7 holy shit dude

Apparently I walked into a bar, and by bar, I mean a heated back and forth between Hawkie and Prism.

I'm going to set that aside for now and start reading from the start.

We are talking about my level of defensiveness and hyperaggression in response to bad pushes on me,
not the initial vote on me


You imply that my defensiveness is scum indicative in Post 336. I ask you to make it explicit in 337. You do so in 339. I respond with 343

This entire sequence takes place in 22 minutes.

In case you somehow directly responded to this post without understanding what misconception I was asserting, I will make it extremely large for you.
In post 424, Prism wrote:You"re adamant I should have read your games looking for nothing in particular. Perhaps you should peruse the samples I linked and look for a very specific behavior.
This hyperaggression in response to inadequate or contradictory pushes on me is my bread and butter.


I am aware of my meta and can fake it accordingly, but this is a trivial misconception to fix, and you would be powering down the same doomed and easily preventable path as many players before you in pursuing it.
If you interpreted this as a response to the meta claim, rather than a suggestion to do a minimal amount of work, I again addressed this other claim immediately but am tired of doing your work for you. 343 is blatantly about my hyperaggression and not how I meta other players, and it is literally impossible to interpret it as anything else.

I just can't believe that ProHawk actually takes the time to think about any of the things he says or responds to. He does not read linked posts, he does not read for context, he does not do basic research. I am 100% fine voting him out for it.

Sorry I rushed that post.

My point is that that’s just how I play right now, and multiple people have pointed that out. Though those two were both Town (actually there’s another game where people literally accused me several times doing nothing), I feel like it’s something people constantly say about my slot and is very easy to latch onto.
