"Perplexing"

Can I get a link to that game Gova referenced?
I think it's this http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=300261

Uhg really don't want to have to catchup in this.

AA is town because he is ****ing town and this growing case on him worries me.
._.

@WL: Soup is town. Are you town that is somehow listening to Gord's blatant bull**** or are you scum? Serious question.
Yes, Soup is town. Maybe WL will listen to you.
I'm not sure what blatant bull**** you're talking about, but I may have forgotten because I don't pay a ton of attention to what I see as pointless bickering.

I'll do actual stuff after I go to the bank.

I tend not to apply meta if I can avoid it. You flipped scum in Toohoo (gasp ongoing games) but we lynched you because you were inactive, not because you were scummy.
If you want to follow up on meta read newbie 13 where I was reasonably active, not the game where I did nothing.

It's alright if you don't want to read through such a long game, but I feel that Soup's read (and maybe kuz's) are based on contrast from that game, because a lot of my play has been pretty poor, to say the least.

@Kuz, I'd have to say null. I thought Soup brought up an interesting point about how AA could be newtown because he didn't stay calm and collected or whatever but then I remembered AA flipped his lid at me in Newbie 12 when I had him pegged and started cursing at me and stuff lol.
That was because I perceived you to be pushing a tired, semantics-based point. Turned out that was only one part of the picture, but I hate it when people start using definitions to incriminate someone.

AA hasn't played town once, in every game so far he has been scum, so assert meta like i did with choice in Pulp Fiction (and i was right thank you very much!) this is the same ordeal.
You shouldn't rely on meta for people's reads. Stop looking at what they did in other games instead of what they're doing in this game.

That's like Broto saying "Asdioh is town because he's town" when he was scum in ****ing a Skype mafia game. Don't sell me that bull****. Explain the reasons behind it, sell me on it. Don't just come out of nowhere and say it.

I'm town that is somehow listening to Gorf's blatant bull****. Again, I don't think he's scum. Did you conveniently miss my response to your earlier post asking me for a read on him?

I'll paraphrase: "I'm okay with him but the buddying worries me."

you were all over yourself and constantly doubted your read. choice had legitimately scummy aspects to his play that should not have been ignored based on meta alone.

Soup is right this time too. He was right about me in FMP as well, but didn't follow up.

Reassessing all of my reads, there's a lot I need to go over.

Don't care. Strong distaste for writing passes for bad play simply because badtown is transparent but then again you guys have let Ran get away with it for so damn long.

If AA is not scum, who is? IR? Definitely. Asdioh? Looks better albeit he's still doing a whole lot of not-really-anything. Can't find any legitimate action to his posts, and outside of his reads on people on his wagon, questioning the AA lynch, and doing a quick picture response of the current wagons, I don't remember anything he's done that actually had some significance to it. His lynch shouldn't be off the table, I dunno why people are trying to take it off. Gorf? Why? Soup was still kinda vague about it. I'll have to reread both for Soup's case and to get a read on Gorf specifically. I still default to what I said earlier, need to read for his motive. His content's not bad, at least, not for what I suspect from him. Gova? What has Gova done? Both good and bad. Apparently Soup's town, don't like that he's more hellbent on finding townies than scum at the moment but whatever floats his boat.

EBR, where should I put my vote if AA is, in fact, not scum?

That's *** backwards. You shouldn't be looking for town reads because the only thing you get are the people who you shouldn't lynch. Which helps, to an extent, but no one gives a **** if you call one of the ten potential townies (depends on if there's an indy or not) as a townie. No one cares you got Choice right in Pulp Fiction. I care about what scum you get right. Scum, otherwise known as the people you do want to lynch. It's easy to call this player or that player as town, because you have a 9/13 or a 10/13 chance of being right. Lemme know when you hit 3/13 or 4/13 scum right.

So, Soup, who are those 3/13, 4/13. You have July and Gorf. You've explained Gorf, I'll go find that. Why July? And who's that unnamed third member?

sorry bro

ill start constructing an asdioh case tomorrow, right now im a bit out of it

Nothing? :/ it's frustrating how the deadline is rapidly approaching, and you haven't presented anything. I can't tell if you're just lying down and giving up, or waiting to the last minute to try to shift the lynch over to me.

If AA is not scum, who is? IR? Definitely.
Whoa, definitely? I might have missed something, but I didn't realize you were so confident on that read. Can you explain your read, briefly?

I feel like you can definitely say this about other players moreso than me.
*cough Gova cough*

I'd also like to understand Soup's read on Gord, but I think it's safe to say that we're not lynching Gord toDay, regardless.

Gova? What has Gova done? Both good and bad.
...yeah? ..

Apparently Soup's town, don't like that he's more hellbent on finding townies than scum at the moment but whatever floats his boat.
It's weird, but whatever works for him I guess.

Interesting how those are my only two options. Even so I guess the first is almost right, I want to put this day behind me.

From a brief re-read Asdioh looks better but I still don't see a lot of substance. Any case I make probably won't be on him. IR definitely looks worse than him right now, and I would prefer to lynch him. Nobody else stands out as scummy.

Town
WL
July
RR

Middle-of-the-road (from towniest to scummiest)
EBR
Soup
Gova
Gord
GLG
TPK
Asd

Scummy
IR

EBR and Soup feel town but it's for a similar reason they think I'm town, and therefore null-towny. Gova is null, but I don't like his passive stance, since his reasons for voting Asd are still passive. TPK is the middle of the road. I once called GLG town due to what looked like scumhunting, but to be honest he's so deviant that he needs to be looked into.

IR hasn't really posted in a long while (Ryker on V/LA?), so I'll just trust EBR for now. His #387 and #393 are a valid summary of his suspicions, and cover my problems with IR better than I could.

I've got no problem :179:ing when EBR really does cover the reasons I want IR gone.

Let's reassess that post which changed my vote.

What an inane accusation. How can you tell that it *ultimately* led nowhere? You act like JTB was supposed to know that Bardull would replace out of the game. And even if he didn't replace out I already explained how the knowledge could be useful.
I previously said this bit did not seem scummy. Meh.

It is a redirection of the problem with his play. Rather than addressing the fact that he did little else but pursue meta, he tries to portray me as saying 'looking for meta is baaaaad'. I did note this, but for whatever reason did not really call him out on it.

Now let me ask you this: if you say that obtaining meta-knowledge on a new player is useless [which I assume you're implying, otherwise you wouldn't have an issue with JTB asking about it] how is that a bigger problem than EBR asking Soup whether or not he knows the flavor?
More redirection of meaning. Also, EBR did more than just asking Soup about flavour and dropped the point rather quickly. IR maintained his pursuit of meta while not looking closely at other issues.

That's something that leads nowhere, wouldn't you agree with that? Hell, he directly asked you whether you're town or not and unless he earnestly expects you to answer the question with "no" then it's pretty feasible that this question would lead nowhere as well.
Sure, I'd agree with it, but that's beside the point. Bad analogies, still taking it as if I'm saying the act of pursuing meta itself is bad.

Once again I'd like to re-emphasize the point [which was completely ignored] that there would have been absolutely no issue had you just let Bardull answer the question and get it over with. We would've gotten the information we asked for, which could've helped us understanding how he'd act under pressure as the pretended [or not] newbie.
I counted a total of 6 posts which either asked why looking for meta was bad or emphasising that your reads will not be meta based. Up to that point, I counted one post that did anything other than look for meta. Up to the current post, I remember no posts where you even attempt to use Bardull's given meta (which is what you requested) or respond to my inquiry as to whether you have anything from it (I might be wrong on this).

But since you already tackled it: If you believe that this game has been led nowhere, wouldn't you agree with what I just said above? Because if you look a bit more closely at what's happening it's *certainly* not JTB's request on meta-data that led this game nowhere but EBR stubbornly pursuing the point as if there was a problem with it. If this game truly has been lead nowhere, I think that's pretty strong evidence that EBR's has indeed pushing a null-tell.
I maintain my previous point: that he is putting words in my mouth. This was the part of the post that did not ring right with me the first time around, since IR chose mostly to defend his decision to get meta and do little else. It was definitely not EBR stubbornly pursuing the point that caused IR to do very little. It also weakly implies that the game (ie hunting mafia) is lead nowhere just because IR has been sidetracked or something. Subtle and unbidden implications he is town, coming from what you'd describe as a falsified complaint against him. I don't like that.

Care to elaborate on that opinion then? How is neither "particularly good"? I am part of this player-slot - am I supposed to twiddle thumbs while people grilling the living hell out of JTB for something so silly? What's wrong with me speaking in defense of my own player slot? [These are not rhetorical questions fyi]
Of course I am going to cover for the bad aspects of his play, you act like I'm not supposed to do that. The problem is that most of you aren't willing to look beyond that to see what's actually *scummy* play and what not.
Implying that scummy play is the only scumtell out there or that you have not played scummily. If he had been more proactive this impasse, as he implies it is, would not have been reached. Only defending and pursuing information of dubious use can be categorised as giving insubstantial content.

I'm not pushing a Gova lynch. I never pushed a Gova lynch. There is no point at which I suggested Gova should be lynched over anyone else. Mentioning that 'I would be fine with his lynch' was intended as passive.
At that point I can't remember if your vote was anywhere, but with your read on IR making these random changes and this constant undertone of suspicion for Asdioh that never manifested into a vote, your intentions were unclear. While you may not have actively pushed a Gova lynch, you weren't pushing ANY lynches at that time so that Gova comment you made was significant because by just dropping Gova's name in their I couldn't tell what your intentions are and clearly neither could some other people.

I did not follow up Gova's admission of stancelessness and that was my fault. The response itself meant little to me because his posts told me he had read but not analysed. Not pressuring Gova was not related to the fact that he was not being pressured, but merely my oversight. My comment on 'outdated reasoning' was completely unbidden and I myself am stumped as to why I typed it.
Kk fair enough.

Of your two scenarios, the first is more correct. While I did mention the words 'policy lynch', it is to be taken with several shakers of salt, and not in the sense that 'he's not contributing lynch him'. He was not generating content but he had been posting, which I saw as anti-town coasting.

I'm fine with you not trusting my reads, it's too early for me to really back them up. The Asd/WL thing is barely defendable tbh, it's one of those weak, unsupportable gut feels, even weaker than Asdioh's first WL call.
The first part is alright, I don't like that it took one answer to a simple answer to a question to back you off Gova for the Day, and I still think that the pressure that you got from subtly slipping Gova's name into your lynch pool and getting called out for it played a major role in that. But at least it wasn't just a call for a policy lynch.

The second part is something you've done quite a bit, and that is you've had a lot of passive reads/suspicions. You keep these minor suspicions or leave passing comments that discredit your entire read, and that with the inconsistency of your reads, even for your top scum picks, makes it damn hard to believe your reads are genuine, or that you even believe the reads you are pushing.


WL went town on my town list after i chewed his *** out and he didn't do **** about it.
Is the first town supposed to be town, or down? Either way, can you explain how this works and why WL not doing **** about you fighting with him affected your read on him.

@WL, asdioh, July: Read on Gorf
Gord's leaning town for me, he's been providing his reads, and although he's been pretty blunt he has the reasoning to back up his actions. He's also asked questions that contribute to scumhunting in general, as in he's either addressed issues I also wanted to address or his questions provided answers that helped me and possibly others get a read on the person who answered.

Pointless buddying. Analyse the damn post and you'll see it is merely 'scumpick for these reasons x2', 'These guys are pushing me as scum', 'outroad to vote IR/Asd if these two get better'. It is notable that WL laughs off Soup's Gord scumread. It is also notable WL assumes I think he is scum when he is prominent at the top of my town list, which somebody should have picked up on if they analysed. The only thing that I've done to cast even slight suspicion on WL is throwing out that Asd/WL scumteam theory, which I have said is not to be taken seriously and based on the interactions between them, not WL's individual posts (as he is keen to have us believe is the only way to show scum). Soup has defended himself against WL's logic, which he seems to take as calling him scum. Overly defensive much?
However, the point is that those first parts are all good content, even if you disagree with him, he gave his scum picks, reasons, analyzed you and Soup's post for intentions, and explained his lynch pool. Discrediting his post isn't going to help. Neither will "noting" WL doing things that line up with his reads but which you once again passively suggest are scummy.

You also say that the Asdioh/WL scumteam theory is not to be taken seriously, but it is was definitely proposed seriously and you confirm that by saying that is based on the interactions between them, so clearly you do still think those interactions are significant. Actually, this whole thing which is meant to show that Gord is buddying (which is a decent argument) turned into a jab at WL, even though you vehemently assert that WL is "prominent at the top of your town list" :-/

If you claim that you're a mason with WL I'll take what you say more seriously - that is, pretend WL speaks for both of you since that's the bulk of your argument anyway.
This is just a weird jab at Gord, it's not so much scummy, just a strange way to say that you think Gord is following WL.

Can you tell me why Soup is more beneficial to lynch than AA? :3
If anything, your posts have convinced me more toward lynching AA than Soup. I'm not even sure why he's voting me, or what he hopes to accomplish with respect to either an Asdioh or IR wagon, when he's been wishy-washy about both, and doesn't seem to be trying to convince people to get people back on them. I personally wouldn't want to follow someone who says "I voted person x because of a coin flip." Take some hard stances, AA, and back them up.
This means you think both IR and I are "mildly scummy" right?

unvote
Vote: asianaussie


I finally understand the reasoning for wanting to lynch him.
Why bring these things up know, instead of when they happened? Your first part of the post I can agree with, idk what aa's case is on you. But the last part seems like you are justing waiting to set up your vote on him, like you've kept those points as ammo for a while just waiting to get on the wagon. And what made you "finally understand" the reasoning for the aa votes?

the point is, i see what AA is doing, i see the scumminess, i see it, but i just don't see the full picture, that's the same thing with you, i'm not sure if i want to FLIP YOU AS SCUM YET BECAUSE I STILL HAVE A TOWN READ ON YOU.
This wording makes me uncomfortable, flipping his as scum and such has such a dirty sound to it. Still, you've been playing like a frustrated townie so I'm thinking this is just an awkward choice of words, but it did stick out to me.

Too frustrated with my own play and people pulling **** out of nowhere to post coherently.

Look real hard at Asdioh when I flip town, because that jump was pretty calculated. Up till now he's had a lot of posts wondering why people don't like me, even when it's not necessary.

Everyone else on my wagon is pretty towny. If Soup, GLG or IR jump on my wagon they are probably scum. The only ones who can legitimately jump on my wagon now are WL and possibly RR.
That AtE is bad, but I can't deny that Asdioh jump onto your wagon was sketchy as hell. Why would GLG be likely scum if he jumped on your wagon?

Uhg really don't want to have to catchup in this.

AA is town because he is ****ing town and this growing case on him worries me.
You've been doing this ever since the IR wagon fell apart and I really can't stand it. Give me a ****ing reason why aa is town.

AA is town because he's town =/= valid argument

You are not helping us by being cryptic as **** about why your town reads are town, I'm not just going to believe you because you say it over and over again and you know that, I learned my lesson from Celeb Mafia when ya'll said Cello was scum completely based on meta. Have you even considered the case against aa, or do you just not care? Soup is being more convincing than you right now because he at least admits there is scumminess present in aa but he said there's a bigger picture he is looking at, which I'm thinking means meta, which isn't thrilling but its at least something.

@WL: Soup is town. Are you town that is somehow listening to Gord's blatant bull**** or are you scum? Serious question.

wtfamireading at the aa wagon. IR wagon completely collapsed within 2 days, ****s weird.
...
...

*sigh* Why is Soup town? Explain Gord's blatant bull****, and if its so blatant how are you and Soup the only ones who see it right now? And still waiting for your thoughts on GLG btw.

Covered what I could, EBR is prolly town but Kuz is making me want to hit my head against a wall, already have a massive headache, still feel good about my vote on aa.

How is July town? ewwwww
I think she's town because she hasn't shown me anything scummy and I rather like how she's responding, especially to me. She's picking up on most of the aspects of my play that I consider pretty patchy.

I suppose it's a null tell, but meh, I like her posts.

Need an accurate votecount so I can see where to go from here.

I might actually do something unthinkable soon.
I'll be mad if you hammer me.

At that point I can't remember if your vote was anywhere, but with your read on IR making these random changes and this constant undertone of suspicion for Asdioh that never manifested into a vote, your intentions were unclear. While you may not have actively pushed a Gova lynch, you weren't pushing ANY lynches at that time so that Gova comment you made was significant because by just dropping Gova's name in their I couldn't tell what your intentions are and clearly neither could some other people.
I believe I was not voting at that point. I was pretty passive at that point. If you choose to take it as significant, I'm fine with it, I got my Gova suspicions out of the way because of it, even though that wasn't really my intention.

The first part is alright, I don't like that it took one answer to a simple answer to a question to back you off Gova for the Day, and I still think that the pressure that you got from subtly slipping Gova's name into your lynch pool and getting called out for it played a major role in that. But at least it wasn't just a call for a policy lynch.
Mmhm. I was pretty damn nonchalant about anyone at that point.

The second part is something you've done quite a bit, and that is you've had a lot of passive reads/suspicions. You keep these minor suspicions or leave passing comments that discredit your entire read, and that with the inconsistency of your reads, even for your top scum picks, makes it damn hard to believe your reads are genuine, or that you even believe the reads you are pushing.
Ya, I was passive. I'll stop that now, vote IR for me please :)

However, the point is that those first parts are all good content, even if you disagree with him, he gave his scum picks, reasons, analyzed you and Soup's post for intentions, and explained his lynch pool. Discrediting his post isn't going to help. Neither will "noting" WL doing things that line up with his reads but which you once again passively suggest are scummy.
The main point of that bit was to push Gord into actually analysing, not typing weak one-liners. He didn't express what he liked about it, just that WL is an artist because he can construct posts, or something vague like that (WL could be an artist, dunno). I would've been fine with him saying what you just did, but no, I have no clue what he likes about the post. Look at the rest of the post in question, he doesn't respond with any particular detail or much original thought.

Maybe I was just pissed off at this whole sheeping ordeal, I dunno.

You also say that the Asdioh/WL scumteam theory is not to be taken seriously, but it is was definitely proposed seriously and you confirm that by saying that is based on the interactions between them, so clearly you do still think those interactions are significant. Actually, this whole thing which is meant to show that Gord is buddying (which is a decent argument) turned into a jab at WL, even though you vehemently assert that WL is "prominent at the top of your town list" :-/
You sure about the 'proposed seriously' thing?

For some reason I can believe Asdioh/WL scumteam even though I think WL is pretty towny...it just popped into my head...
Even I don't think the theory has credibility, especially now that I don't read Asdioh as scummy. You should accept my list of alignments over anything you judge as a 'jab at WL'.

This is just a weird jab at Gord, it's not so much scummy, just a strange way to say that you think Gord is following WL.
I don't think it, it's absolutely true. Gord has said more than once (two or three times iirc) that he is basically agreeing with WL all the way. One of his earlier posts said something to this effect as well. I don't like it, I don't think WL really likes it either.

This wording makes me uncomfortable, flipping his as scum and such has such a dirty sound to it. Still, you've been playing like a frustrated townie so I'm thinking this is just an awkward choice of words, but it did stick out to me.
It's Soup. I don't think it's special.

That AtE is bad, but I can't deny that Asdioh jump onto your wagon was sketchy as hell. Why would GLG be likely scum if he jumped on your wagon?
Look at what GLG has done. He's been so deviant I can say with certainty he's doing it on purpose, maybe to avoid sheeping calls or something. I'm the most likely lynch right now, if he jumps on the popular wagon, having not even mentioned me before, I would not look favourably on that.

Covered what I could, EBR is prolly town but Kuz is making me want to hit my head against a wall, already have a massive headache, still feel good about my vote on aa.
If it happens it happens. Just make sure you look at that AtE post seriously.

  • Don't like the overemphasis on meta early, especially as stuff started happening
  • Don't like the lack of proactivity after the initial meta stuff, it's mostly defence from there, and fairly meh defence (I looked at that one post again, respond if you'd like)
  • Don't like ghebhead misconscruing (thanks Gova) stuff (ie. implying I said 'you're scummy because you want meta') and posting it up as the real reason EBR doesn't like your slot (and the reason I voted you, though the wording of my explanation makes that slightly more reasonable)
  • Don't like the Asdioh jump or ghebhead trying to pretend you had particularly legitimate reasons to vote jump

I once said that you not going anywhere with the meta is scummy - I partially take that back, because Bardull would have had to post a bit more to really get a comparison. I still don't like how your slot defended the issue by saying 'this way we know if he has scum/town experience', when it really wouldn't have done anything. If you didn't defend like that, then ignore this bit.

Just look at the EBR posts I linked in #496. They cover most of what I dislike, and since I'm such a :179: right now (have i evolved :180:) I don't really care for that call anymore, since it is really why I don't like your slot.

Flaaffy would be a great symbol of fluffing, just as Mareep is a symbol of sheeping. Think about it.

Don't have a lot of time so I'll try to condense what I wanna say into a paragraph.

Kuz, it's you that says that you have the convincing skills of a guru but have the reads of a monkehh. Besides the fact that AA is town just cuz, tell me what about EVERYTHING in the AA case is wrong. Ya know, do something. I hate that RR only posts catch up posts, but the "buddying" he did of WL doesn't worry me, even though it was more than what I might have done. AA dead yet? Oh deadline's June 30th we got time. @Kuz is Soup scum upon an AA scum flip?

That's *** backwards. You shouldn't be looking for town reads because the only thing you get are the people who you shouldn't lynch. Which helps, to an extent, but no one gives a **** if you call one of the ten potential townies (depends on if there's an indy or not) as a townie. No one cares you got Choice right in Pulp Fiction. I care about what scum you get right. Scum, otherwise known as the people you do want to lynch. It's easy to call this player or that player as town, because you have a 9/13 or a 10/13 chance of being right. Lemme know when you hit 3/13 or 4/13 scum right.

So, Soup, who are those 3/13, 4/13. You have July and Gorf. You've explained Gorf, I'll go find that. Why July? And who's that unnamed third member?
it's called evening the odds, i look for town reads and then anyone i don't consider town or have some suspicion to them i consider scum, it's not like i read EVERYONE as town.

yeah, i do too.

July/Gorf - between GLG/TPK.

Not sure if i tentatively like the IR case from AA, but i'd need to look at it, and look at that slot.

There are some points against AA I agree with and I agree he's been playing scummy. I have the biggest gut town read on him though you don't even know. That post by Soup that you say 100% convinced you that he was scum, is pretty much a carbon copy of how I feel. I've never seen townAA but I will goddam tell you that I've never had a stronger gut read. As for my reads being ****, they're **** after I analyse things and try to piece things together. My gut reads are usually on point.

@aa: You best claim now so I can have time to get that wagon off you keeping your claim in mind. I'm still not in the right mindset to tackle this thread yet but I will soon.

Why bring these things up know, instead of when they happened? Your first part of the post I can agree with, idk what aa's case is on you. But the last part seems like you are justing waiting to set up your vote on him, like you've kept those points as ammo for a while just waiting to get on the wagon. And what made you "finally understand" the reasoning for the aa votes?
If it wasn't obvious, I had AA as null at the time his wagon was building up. I kept asking people for explanations of why it was building, because I couldn't see it. However, I eventually realized how noncommital he seemed, and when it culminated in his "coin flip" vote on me I just couldn't see him as town.

That AtE is bad, but I can't deny that Asdioh jump onto your wagon was sketchy as hell. Why would GLG be likely scum if he jumped on your wagon
...dunno what to say

This is why I can't by him as town right now, even after I read the game I was linked to. There isn't logical progression it's just gut feelings and meta to support a town read. I can sort of see the argument for it, but I can't sit down and accept it.

We need to look at what AA has done this game and evaluate it. Meta and gut reads should never be the basis for removing a read. You need to look at the hard evidence presented in the game itself.

And I support a claim, AA should do it

IF you are, then why is he town for you? Why is it so obvious he is town by just looking at this game?

Explain with reason, even you and Kuzi said he can agree he is acting scummy, but still you both list him as town so easily.

This bothers me.

GLG does not seem scummy. What he did was legitimately try to scumhunt, albeit with meh reasoning and conscious evasion of the big topics at that point. He pointed at who I would argue was one of the most prominent scumhunters at that point, calling him out. I don't think scum would do that.
Bull****. Scum has to pretend to scumhunt in order to fool town. He presented an extremely reaching case on someone no one had a scum read on while avoiding popular topics. This is exactly something I would expect scum to do. And your last sentence is just wifom.

I believe I said leaning scum when I read into him more.

For now I wait for AA to claim, otherwise I don't plan on moving my vote unless someone says, "I'm scum"

He didn't ask for his background mafia experience, he asked Bardull to literally summarize the games he has played in, in the BRoom. I already asked about his previous mafia experience in my first post of the Day and we established he wouldn't be getting any special slack for it either.

Have I not said over and over why I asked him for a summary?


This is so scummy it hurts.

There wouldn't have been a blatant problem with it, but we would have gained absolutely nothing from his answer and we could have been given information we could not verify AND its an excuse for your slot to generate faux content. Already stated this before, don't sidestep the point.

And I am fully aware of this now.

Are you actually trying to make a case for me being a liar for saying JTB was trying to generate faux content? Plus, I never said JTB has only had that meta discussion with Bardull. I clearly state in my 189 that even when he tried to switch gears and make attacks on others, they reaching pieces of garbage and certainly weren't genuine. You claim that JTB has had a plethora of good points against Asdioh, well I just read back through the thread searching for them and this is all I could find.

I brought up why I thought Asdioh was scummy in a later post.

I am blown away by the legitimacy of that accusation.
