Alright, finally catching up on all of this. Biggest thread of the thread so far seems to be the Sorsha/Llama spat, and I'm leaning slightly bad on Sorsha because of it. I think JJJ's analysis of the response timing and nature is useful:
JaggedJimmyJay wrote: I can understand. It's jarring for anyone to be facing an accusation so quickly after a game begins. His accusation came two minutes after your post, as you said, and then your joke response to that came 11 minutes after
that. To me that looks a player who is briefly frozen by unexpected pressure searching for a way to approach it.
Sorsha wrote:All for one line and an emoticon? Seriously? How am I supposed to respond to that?
In terms of defense, you're probably not supposed to respond to that. Some accusations don't facilitate defense. It isn't ideal, but a civilian must still render them when they apply. Instead of a defense, I would anticipate a more exploratory response to llama than the one you provided -- even if you believed it was a joke.
However, I think JJJ got away with blaming Sorsha for the use of timestamps. Sorsha just used the phrase "literally two minutes" to describe llama's post. JJJ then emphasizes Sorsha's own timing on his own, and in a later post says, "I wasn't going to mention the timestamps until you brought them up first." That strikes me as shifty.
LC makes an interesting read about Quin buffing up post count through repeated pokes at the same idea (lack of overlap in JJJ's reads). Leaning slightly good on him for that and the follow up posts.
I disagree with INH that llama is pushing a narrative that benefits him. He left his own name off the blender/hunter list, and I don't think he made the strong claim to hunterdom that INH is suggesting.
Epi makes a simple but sensible read on DDL's inconsistency. And DDL has since posted, but not addressed it.
MM feels honest about his minor frustration over the state of game.
Will cast vote once things develop more/I drink it in.
