I didn't like him calling my questions not compelling and then he half way walked it back.

Look I can be right and I can be wrong but few have accused me of not being compelling in my thought experiments so like. Hm. Felt like he was trying to minimalize me.

They weren't compelling, with the exception of one. That's not me minimalizing you, it's you not asking good questions.

And I still answered them anyway. You're welcome.

All I remember thinking at the time was "If Sheep is scum, immediately murder Han for whatever the fuck this defense is"

I am resisting the urge to get catty here, so instead I'll just tell you to go back and read again. It's a pretty simple defense.

I defended a thought process that was somewhat unrelated, but that wasn't like, my direct defense of Sheep, so if you read the stuff that wasn't a defense of Sheep and thought it was a defense of Sheep, then yeah, that's on you.

I also dont think JC making a list is in itself a problem.
But I do think its odd for him to say he loves lists when, as far as I can tell in the last couple of games, he hasn't actually posted lists when he comes back to catch up on stuff.

Maybe you can correct me on the timeline. But last game, I feel like JC made a list post around the same time, where he said us badgering Isquen was dumb, and made a comment about thinking SBell was Town. Maybe this was on the last day rather than the night before like it was this game? Because I think I pushed Isquen on that last day and he didn't show back up in time for deadline.
Point being, not sure on your memory when it as a relevant topic of last game's discussion.

I mean, he wants to see more from Crescent and myself, ctes has negative points, death hasn't impressed... but no vote. No pressure for claims. What happened to the fire?

I wish I noticed this when Dumey was still around, whoops

Here's what I would ask MZero, what is inconsistent about what I've said? I said I had a specific outcome I was looking for with my Sheep vote. I said I don't like to vote unless I have built my own case on someone. I expressed that I didn't have enough to build a case on anyone yet. You can say I'm not fired up, but my hopes and expectations for the game don't mean I'm going to betray the rational game solving part of my brain. I would LIKE to put someone's feet to the fire if I catch them on something, but I have to first catch them on something, no?

Dumey why are you casting aggressive gameplay in a negative light after starting the game off saying youre fine with aggressively pressing for claims? I have zero problem with how ctes, or anyone, reacted to me about Ulti calling for a scan on me. Im pretty sure ctes dropped it after a single post, too. Granted there wasnt a reason for him to press anymore after I expressed being happily on board with me

I'm not casting aggression in a bad light! If you interpreted my question about Crescent as a criticism of her play, then I apologize for not being clear enough. I specifically said that I LIKED Crescent's early game, where she was aggressively grilling Sheep. What I pointed out was that after Sheep's claim, I felt like there was a narrative being spun that Sheep buckled under no pressure and didn't respond to any of the people voting for him. I made a post where I went through and actually found all the posts of Sheep directly responding to the people voting for him. It felt like to me that where Crescent was being righteous in her aggression before, when I saw her keep going on a narrative I didn't think was true, my sensors went off as "this person is still pushing when I don't think they should be." Crescent then clarified that it wasn't that Sheep wasn't responding, but the quality of Sheep's responses that she had an issue with. I'm not sure I agree with that evaluation, but it was enough for me to back off and watch for the moment.

Fine Chris exercise
