I'm going to dig up a post for you, which may contain some perspective on this matter
viewtopic.php?p=243721#p243721

You don't need to win an argument against Eden, just say enough that the conversation speaks for itself. Same with bozo

I think you attempt to outright force the other to concede some concept of debate when it was never about that at all
This doesn't help me.
Some people are just beyond help

See: ghug

I guess my point is that your towniness shines through when you're just being town, and a combination of both overthinking the matter (like when you said you were deliberately watching the proceedings of EoD1 but not posting for some nebulous end that conceals you as doc) as well as the insistence of trying to prove your towniness instead of just letting your own behavior speak for itself is actively detrimental

I suppose you might say that's just what you do as town, and that may be true, but perhaps now is a great opportunity to induce a paradigm shift given that you've been outed as PR and thus nobody can really overly accuse you of sudden changes of behavior, and you can take this new!worcej to future games without fearing then that that subsequent change will also bring you suspicion

I will ever repeat thus: *town has no reason to fear*

Just do what you would normally do, yeah? Which is figuring out who is scum. If your goal is to push Eden as scum (kinda doubtful, but that's your prerogative) you should be trying to induce words and actions from him that are indicative, not taking a point you already found scummy and ever building an endless tower of arguments over that point. That's just tunneling

Like I say in that post to ghug, if Eden did something scummy, he will have already done so at the appropriate time on the next day when you want to push him out for it, and you don't need to "win" that particular point this instant

Exactly. I'm really not enjoying this game.
You think Worcej was faking his anger?

(note how Bozo is completely missing out on the real reason that everyone thinks Worcej was for real)
I think Worcej is always faking his anger. He chooses to be angry because he enjoys it.
Absolutely not true here Bunny.

I hate losing my temper. I go to therapy explicitly to help control my anger.

I am not proud of losing my shit when I am passionate. I hate being looked down upon because of it. And I know that I am looked down upon for it in this community.

Just because you're bad at this game doesn't mean everyone is. Stop spewing your insecurity umbilical cord juice all over me

A lot of people flipped to "hey this is fun" after EoD2, why haven't you?
Your guys' scum theater is thinly-veiled
Really do hate that Chaqa's opinion actually matters now

Hold on I've got a meme for you

Im actually starting to worry that Jasnah just let Bunny cc her, take the PR claim, to see if scum would kill him.

Bunny feels so tone-deaf this game at times. Like he is completely out of tune with anything most people appear to feel?

(or maybe im just completely wrong about everything, but yo)
No, you're not wrong here.

I am holstering the real response I want to give Bunny for that take on my anger.

bozo, at risk of oversimplifying, a lot of what you’ve said is emphasizing that being confident in worcej’s Doctor claim will cost us the game, and not proving why we shouldn’t believe him. If you’re Doctor it’s true, but it’s notably the angle mafia would take in your shoes too—the implied takeaway is that we should kill both of you to be safe, when as the genuine Doctor I think you’d be focused first on proving worcej is faking.

Why should we believe you over worcej?
@Eden, have you understood my words on why you should believe me over bozo?

Let’s test that theory, shall we?

Because it’s fairly clear to me that all your arguments are forgetting that the goal isn’t to be RIGHT, it’s to convince the jury. And none of your actions or writings are meaningfully considering your audience. They’re designed to shout and be violent and loud.

But if you wonder why you aren’t heard as much as you think you should be, maybe you should consider your goals and general audience.
Uh... pretty sure my audience is everyone in the game right now.

I'm pointing out how bozo is incorrectly interpreting my intentions and framing up my position to everyone. He is explaining what worcej is doing in defense of himself, why can I not do the same? Why are you trying to shut me down right now?

This has nothing to do with me being right and you portraying this is an interesting move for you to make. Combined with these attempted shutdowns and soft character attacks, I'm growing rather :? of you.
Time for another “old man tells a story”:

Episode 4? Let’s say four.

I had a friend as a kid who loved to argue. He was loud. And he was RIGHT. And if you were wrong he’d let you know. Be it pedantry or general point, he’d argue with you.

Now, we were obnoxious and fairly intelligent and competitive teens. We all argued and enjoyed being RIGHT. But this guy needed it.

One day, my dad taught me the meanest thing you could do to this kid was say “I agree.” He told us this IN FRONT OF THE KID. Then when the kid tried arguing with my dad, my dad would just say “<kids name>, you’re right. I’m not disagreeing with you.”

But the kid needed to argue. He needed to be RIGHT! He couldn’t stop himself from trying to find another thing to argue about and show how my dad was wrong.

Needless to say, it was very funny. And everyone but the kid learned a good lesson.
Have you considered becoming a rabbi?

I don’t look down on you for it.

But as someone who has had a temper control problems myself, I found that learning that I was getting angry when I didn’t see any other way to communicate what I wanted as a tool I was using to compensate was a great lesson.

It was a semi-conscience choice—maybe habit is the right word— to access that tool.

And follow in my mom’s footsteps? No thank you.

I became a professor and enjoyed rambling at my class when I was still in my mid-20s. That was great.

Bunny, take your advice and please keep it to yourself.

I am firmly not interested in your opinions any longer after your take on my anger is 'fake'.

Superficially yes. Sometime well before EOD3, I’ll have fully processed it, probably today.
I’m still kind of in siege mode from getting blitzed for asking what I considered to be a really obvious yet pertinent question to start the night
