It seems to me that reads either have merit or they don't, regardless of if the person tries to push merit on them or not. Is this correct?In post 899, DiamondSentinel wrote:Functionally? Very little.
To normalize a set of reads (or a stance) would just be to grant that it is legitimate and has merit.
Merit is that it's not complete bullshit and is worth discussing.
Legitimacy is that it is meant to solve the game and not sow dissent.
Yeah Cabd's a friend in real life, but that's not the issue. How is it any different than the reasoning you used to defend Diamond Sentinel earlier? When you know someone is getting attacked for their play style and not for something actually scummy don't you point it out?In post 896, SirCakez wrote:You seem to be very close with Cabd as a person and your defense of him mostly consists of "it's just his playstyle" when I feel like the case against him goes beyond thatIn post 889, Tammy wrote:?

how many surface level townreads do you have to give out for them to look fake af? I'm not writing a phd thesis hereIn post 909, SirCakez wrote:I need translators for Pooky and Cabd

What points of Diamond Sentinel's are not just play style or personality? And what part isn't weird narrative building?
(Note: I don't have a developed town read on Cabd, nor do I really have a scum read on Diamond Sentinel.)
My main point of defense on DS earlier was that he was trying to make the game serious while people were still having fun nostalgia-ing and people were using that to attack him. Not his playstyle although that was a part.In post 910, Tammy wrote:Yeah Cabd's a friend in real life, but that's not the issue.

what makes a person deserving of pressure, in your opinion?:In post 846, DiamondSentinel wrote:Syr I think just deserves a bit of pressure. Not a hard read on them by any means, but something's bugging me.
Oh, and Tammy should get some of the pressure pie. Kinda forgot about that read, but there isn't much to make me feel any better.
You said I'm "handing them out like candy" which implies a lot.

why did you even feel the need to defend him?In post 915, SirCakez wrote:My main point of defense on DS earlier was that he was trying to make the game serious while people were still having fun nostalgia-ing and people were using that to attack him. Not his playstyle although that was a part.
I have not dug into DS's case but I think his point that Cabd is looking for approval and validation holds water. What would you call weird narrative building?

I didn't read your whole ISO buddy, just saw what you were doing on the page and responded to it. 3 townreads, 30 townreads, ain't much difference to me when its surface level buddying.In post 917, SirCakez wrote:You said I'm "handing them out like candy" which implies a lot.

Surface-level whatever I can see how you'd see that.
this mindset seems valid. It's not a towntell, though.In post 852, Jake The Wolfie wrote:I fear that whatever I say will always be turned against me, even if it's the towniest thing that has ever been done before, and I'll end up as the first blood again.

More or less. Merit is a more objective measure of a read, but its recognition is subjective. People often won't realize that a person's reads have merit because of the fog and friction of the game.In post 908, Jake The Wolfie wrote:It seems to me that reads either have merit or they don't, regardless of if the person tries to push merit on them or not.
