re: @skitter
this isn't super convincing tho :/

i mean shit flip this around; i clearly saw the post i quoted where Prism decides to be charitable, why do i rock that fucking boat either (considering i know that empirically every time i do we get into it)
i don't know
maybe it just pisses you off as either alignment
to me it's more compelling to ask why he backed off yesterday

like i don't want prism to hide in all the other stuff: that very clearly reads to me as a tactical angle to get me out of the game seeing where i came out against this pseudo-olive branch that game out late and doesn't seem to be particularly concerned with what i flip

In post 4350, Prism wrote:Absolutely delusional.
Skitter asked me my perception of the argument of me/bork. I answered in the most civil but truthful way I could. In no way was that even meant to be responded to by bork.

I will stay out of the thread for the night. Engage with him all you want and I will not interfere.

I sat through all of Day 1 with the player list universally either voting me or calling me a toxic force not worth conversing with/needing to be policy eliminated, and gladly took it without returning the various kinds of vitriol thrown my way all day long.

I have no more nice words to say.

you're right, i absolutely did do that (and i'll admit a lot of that was fueled by my reacting to and I don't know what to tell you; I lot of what I read from Prism about me initially read to me like "maybe it is town but in order to townread here you need to assume that the braining isn't so good"; I realize communication is a two-way street and maybe I need to not react in the moment as so that my tone won't be as overly aggressive; even so, i still think my tone was sufficiently interrogative not to immediately get that sequence that i got

p-edit: @Prism: regardless as to what you flip i have no ill will to you

Edit, well now that I typed that out, if it's so easy why isn't it happening? But there can only be at the most 2 more scum? That's not a lot of pushing power, but maybe they are staying away? ARRRRGH
can you explain why this post is extremely townie bork?
tonal:
I think the last sentence in the first paragraph feels like a note of town-paranoia
I think the latter paragraph is a non-performative bout of double-paranoia that i am not reading as planned out
This is a further reason why borks town. Now is not the time to white knight, now's the time for scum to start/jump on a wagon.

also you voted me like before I made those posts so unless you're some kind of time traveler or psychic, you can't really use that as a reason.

I was so tilted I left a jacket with enough sentimental value to be my most prized possession at the park. Suddenly all of my irritation between this game, being kept up until 5am, and end of the year work crunch has paled in comparison to just the relief of finding it.

I probably would have deserved it had I actually lost it.

I've struggled to keep motivation/keep level all game. No excuse for losing my cool ever, though. Things aren't comparative like that.

I do think parts of this are legitimately +scum but I'll revisit it in the morning.
