your perspective is really strange to me because it feels like you think I don't have worry about your scum!game being good enough to get away with this.
197 is asking "Should I not be concerned?". Absolutely, you should be.

My criticism is that you learned to focus on me first, to sort that first and force it through and leave the partner spec for later. You're mitigating this criticism by drawing a new distinction of "Well I'm not voting skitter". Maybe that's important, but I don't think it is. It feels like your intent with 155 was to try and hit tonal points, and let the claim do the work of pushing me for you. It felt very wrong to me.

I'm also concerned you expect me to townread picking a fight with me period because of a certain other game. I do not.
How is it not important?

The mistake I made that you were calling me out on was that I hardshoved your partner instead of shoving you.

I am not shoving you or skitter atp because I don't like relying directly on mech without letting the game progress naturally first.

Because if the mech is wrong or a red herring, we are missing out on a lot of actual dayplay.

Also it is somewhat unenjoyable for me to strictly play based on mechspec with a good playerlist - I don't think I would get any enjoyment out of catching a skitter/you scumteam strictly on mechspec.

I find it very hard to believe that you are bewildered by and do not understand my argument.

You understand enough to draw new distinctions that serve as possible mitigating factors, then act like that distinction itself was always at issue by putting them in question form.

Severely doubt that Ari's master scum plan is to pretend not to understand what's happening. She's better than that.

It sounded like you lost a previous game because you started hunting for a partner too early, so by trying to form a pair now you're outside your town range? It doesn't strike me as a very good argument.

in context let me explain what happened that game;


I was pushing Meg

Prism defended Meg,

I found Prism's defense scummy.

I hardshoved Meg through instead of pivoting for Prism.


I don't understand how this criticism applies to my actions this game where I am not shoving either Skitter or Prism.

That is not what i meant. I said it was weird of you to say "ngl" there when you could just say "vp these posts are suss".

There is a forced casualness to appending "ngl" on the phrase. So I asked why you would need to "lie" about calling my posts suss.

My argument is that you previously went on a snipehunt chasing my partner before me in the Mini Normal. I don't think you even start on that path again and just focus squarely on me.

Your response to this was that you understood the connection. However you didn't spend that much time on it, and you weren't actually voting skitter. In comparison, you actually wound up forcing my "partner" through first in the other game as you were already there. This distinction is a mitigating response with further depth of context, not a complete rejection.

Perhaps you are in fact town and this distinction critical. Acting like there's obviously no real connection and it's irrational from my end to expect this makes me suspect it is in bad faith.
