No, I agree. But bad thought processes are still bad thought processes.

There's a certain pompous precision to it.

Anyway, in post 158 you state smith seems town to you. But after a supposed misrep about your meta, you vote him. Was this your first suspicion of him all game? Was there any progress to it or just a sudden jump?

It's kinda hard to put into words?

As you've surely seen by now, Smith is a very detail-oriented player... so when he starts deliberately ignoring details to favor his narrative, it provokes my suspicion.

Are you just as detail-oriented? You've been in two big spats already which both went on for a while. Are you naturally argumentative about details?

Not really, just a last word kinda guy.

You know the type, I'm sure. Obnoxious. Self-righteous. Unyielding.

In post 358, -Grey- wrote:when he starts deliberately ignoring details to favor his narrative
for the record, the accusation based in fact was that I didn't do the necessary work to validate Grey's meta comparison and was like "well this doesn't look right, explain". This, while accurate, is non alignment indicative (for what I think are very obvious reasons)

Grey's accusation in that post, that I deliberately ignored details in order to further a narrative, potentially is alignment indicative, if it actually happened. It did not, and indeed Grey has found himself unable to actually explain in any kind of clear manner how said action actually occurred. You can tell by the fact that it's unclear what details I ignored in order to further what narrative, and that he seems to be unable to actually explain this in a clear manner.

You can put this to the test by filling in the blanks on "Smith in post X ignored detail Y in order to further narrative Z". Anyone who can do so based on what Grey has been saying gets a cookie.

PS Some simple counters to attempts to fill in the blanks there
1) I speculated on Grey being a possible partner of oldwino when this whole thing began. No details were ignored at that point (it's also unclear what narrative I'm trying to further, as a "well I guess these are possible partners" is pretty weak as a narrative to begin with, all the more so from a perspective of townreading oldwino, as Grey claims to be doing)
2) I asked Grey to explain what looked like a questionable meta example. This is where I supposedly ignored details, but it's fairly clear that this was not done in order to further any kind of narrative, especially since I was literally asking him to explain as opposed to a "aha! grey's meta example is wrong therefore he is scum" or the like kind of narrative.

How did you "bus the hell out of him" exactly?
It's clear to anyone that has been reading that my gripe is about you pulling this irrelevant shit out of the game I linked instead of taking a few minutes to actually understand what I was actually driving at.

Pasting a wagon where I was not bussing does not even negate a little bit the fact I bussed the shit out of my team.

Which is NAI as I've discussed. And certainly was not done to "further a narrative", as you so nonsensically accuse me of doing.

Grey, for those of us having a hard time following this, how does your admission to bussing relate to 332 where you say you don't bus? I know you were trying to make a point but it doesn't look like either smith or myself are getting it.

As a general rule, I don't bus.

However, in that game, I was pretty much boxed into bussing because of reads I formulated as town that I was locked into once I became scum.

So while it was technically a bus, it didn't start out as the intention to sacrifice my team when I developed the scumread.

Clear as mud?

What narrative was I furthering, and how was I furthering it? You very much seem to be taking a "screw you for not engaging with my meta example as I wanted you to" perspective and conflating it into some sort of ridiculous scum strategy and conf!biasing the hell out of the whole back and forth. I suppose I should look at whether you're good at making bad cases like this as scum, though my gut says that you're simply being derpy town rn.
