i don't mind it if you note that he, in your opinion, "contradicted himself", but grilling him over it on a point so unessential, in particularly one that i'm fairly certain is mostly a misunderstanding on your point, seems suboptimal
he literally said he's played on the playground for three years, and one game on the org recently
so he played with a couple of players on the org, and apart from that unless you've played on the playground during that time span he's never played with you
i don't understand what exactly you don't understand, but i hope that makes it clearer

Questioning a contradiction is almost never suboptimal. Questioning contradictions and challenging people is how you play the game, you don't just wait for scum to hand you blatant slips and clear evidence.i don't mind it if you note that he, in your opinion, "contradicted himself", but grilling him over it on a point so unessential, in particularly one that i'm fairly certain is mostly a misunderstanding on your point, seems suboptimal

And when asked by novice, he didn't clarify that was what he meant, but continued to talk about himself:

So I asked him exactly that myself, and he hasn't responded as far as I can see while I'm typing this.I played precisely one game on the Org (French Revolution hosted by GeneralHandkerchief, where I somehow convinced a large portion of the playerbase that I was scum, when in fact, I was not.)

You're answering for him. I hope you understand why you really shouldn't be doing that.

By that category, I didn't mean people who were posting little, but anyone who I hadn't seen any real content from. You had made posts at that point, but none that I saw as having relevant, important content, like the others there.

Because the question was not where you played. His question was that it sounded like you were saying even those handful of players hadn't played with you.
And you could have answered that clearly by saying that you meant besides for those players, anyone who hadn't played on the Playground hadn't played with you, but you didn't.

Had his interpretation of my clarifying statement been incorrect or incomplete, I would have had been complled to clarify that the answer in no way speaks for me. In general, if someone wants to answer a question asked of me before I get to it, and the answer is not wrong and needs no clarification, then I only clutter up the conversation by repeating their statement as an agreement, so I am usually fine with letting the statement from someone else stand as is.

I guess you could call me an oversharer. I can't let things stand at a simple miscommunication, and I feel the need to explain myself all the time, even when not necessary, such as the context of a game such as this. It's a bad habit of mine. I would say ask the other Playgrounders, but I think Cuthillius is the only one I have played with any frequency to be able to vouch for this behavior of mine.By that category, I didn't mean people who were posting little, but anyone who I hadn't seen any real content from.

I have played with a small number of the non-playgrounders in a single game here on the Org. This is a condensed version of sentences 2, 3, and 4 of this quote:

But that's a good thing, as I said before, I will pursue any seeming contradiction or oddity from someone for as much as it takes for me to be satisfied, and the habit of being sure you're completely understood, I feel, is a good practice. If I don't understand you, you're likely to be a suspect.

I think that the conversation did accomplish something, at the least, I would say I got some understanding of you out of it.
Also, don't hold back from saying anything you honestly think for the sake of avoiding offending me, it can only hurt town. I will challenge you if I think you're misrepresenting me, but only because that's something scum do, and I want to find them myself. We both want to be understood correctly and find scum to lynch, staying quiet to avoid conflict goes nowhere.
I've been trying to break that silence myself, but so far nobody can or wants to bite, unfortunately.
Nothing wrong with some humor of any kind, I'd say. Well, unless it breaks site rules, in which case it's probably dark enough that I'd like to see it myself anyway :3
