Why does this make me feel it was scum theater?
Let's see... Scum theater involves people going back and forth. Here, TTTT just added a metoo. So, it's not theater.

So, you say it feels like scum theater because you're scum under pressure and feel like you need to say something.

Milk and Slaxx is scum theater.

I quoted TTTT to show it working.

See my wording.

"It was" theater not "it is" theater. I'm talking about something that happened in the past. TTTT agreeing is the present

So...when you quote two people, mention no one else, and talk about scum theater...you're talking about someone else.

I like how you find this less believable than me thinking one post makes it scum theater.

My post was perfectly clear.
We can take a vote on it and see how many people understood it like you did and how many people understood it like I meant it.

If more people agree with you than they agree with me then I promise I will make my future posts excruciatingly detailed.

Ehhhhhh. If I be honest, I don't think anything I've done so far this game is outside my scumrange. So I think you're towning me a bit too easily there.

How easily it ended with a happy ending of both getting along and mutually townreading each other. That and you both seem kind of overly proud of that.

I didn’t TR him.

There’s plenty of pressure to go around so I switched.

Good decision apparently.

What even is this game....
Did the meta change and now people are supposed to unvote their scumreads?

You both scumread each other, said your interactions were productive and then unvoted.

But apparently it's wrong to think that means you townread each other now.

It's like everyone got sent into an alternate dimension where only what is literally typed out can be accepted as the truth and nobody can imply anything ever.

I'm not the one playing worse than I normally am milk, everyone else is.

Lol.

So many assumptions.

Not a scumread =/= a townread
Voting for pressure is a pretty common tactic
I didn’t say the interaction was productive Milk did
I didn’t just unvote, I voted you

Think I got it all.

I’ll start posting clifnotes of all my posts where I hand hold everyone through each sentence.

1. If it did not end with a townread there's no reason to stop pushing him/engaging him. You're not done sorting then. It's not like you waited and saw that the wagon was going nowhere and that people were voting others so you felt the need to stop wasting time on something the others won't join you in.

2. Yeah I'm sure he felt a lot of pressure there.. he was struggling for life at L-1 for days.. dayyyys.

3. Doesn't matter and you know it. I'm saying it felt like scum theater to me. You guys are not going to clone each others actions.

4. Not sure what difference this makes. End result is you laid off milk.

I think the problem is that people are making assumptions, which is okay. But then they make hard scumreads based on implications and assumptions instead of what was actually said and instead of asking forming or clarifying questions, they scumread irl townread first. The good thing about questions is that they pin people to positions, the problem is that people are able to paint a picture of what they meant after the fact.
