Micro 1038: Brass and Shrapnel - Game Over

[Pavowski]

Yeeting me a pagetop on this slow day

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, I will probably still be reading thread tomorrow because I am an enormous scrooge

I'll even give you content, I don't love LGW's naked vote

[Little Green Wheels]

Merry Christmas everyone.

Even you, Pav, my ducky man.

[EdensFlame]

Merry Christmas!

[Pavowski]

Merry Christmas!

Even you, Pav, my ducky man.

Humbug!

[imaginality]

Happy Boxing Day!

The tone of post 72 reads scum to me, I wouldn't be opposed to an UNOwen lim, but I also still like my vote on LGW whose post since my vote haven't shifted my read.

[Flea The Magician]

Again, this is going to need explaining to me.

How is 72 tonally scummy?

[imaginality]

To me something about the wording of it feels like it comes from someone posting with a guilty conscience.

It's not much to go on, but we've only had 4 pages so it's not like there's a lot else to dig into yet.

[Flea The Magician]

So whats the difference between me asking about the votes and them asking about the votes?

[imaginality]

1. You weren't asking about a vote on you.
2. Phrasing. "Explain why to me" rings like someone wanting to understand the reasoning behind the vote. "What's the thinking here" feels a little more like what someone says when they know there are valid reasons to consider them scum and are wondering if the player is voting them for a good reason or is right for the wrong reasons.

That's my gut feel about the phrasing and since it is just an instinctual impression that's why I said it seems tonally scummy

to me

: I recognise it's possible others have different impressions of those posts.

I think there was a good or at least reasonable reason for LGW to vote me there.

[Pavowski]

The desire to hammer this just to juice this game is strong, but I don't think I'll actually do that

Instead I'll VOTE: UNOwen for so casually (and knowingly!) putting LGW on e-1 and putting this in lolhammer territory.

I thought Owen's first vote earlier could have been distancing, the E-1 vote is unlikely to be, though.
