This thread is for out of character discussion about the actual game, decision making, requests for clarification, etc.
See the separate logistics thread for discussions about the players...

Just to be clear: in the current scene outside The One That Got Away, Danny is being snarky and playful, not seriously confrontational. Of course, the other characters involved (Tab, Raven and New Guy) don't have to pick up on this.

Flirting is the vibe that I got.

Flirting is the vibe that I got. Shooting at me, as in with a gun, is the vibe I got. And as such, I very strongly felt attacked. I require an apology or I WILL take it to a moderator.

All I can say at this point is that Tab is coming off to everyone in the scene as a VERY unstable person. Really? Reacting to a cute girl spraying him with a water hose as if it were a dangerous attack? [Tab is acting like] a wimp!

Richard , I am not sure what is going on here, but calling him a wimp is IMO out of line, I agree with the rest of your reply. Jame Rowe is this really about the game or is there something else going on that predates this? Is it just this one thing or is this just one thing in a series of things for you, because this is rather sudden? Is there something prior to this that we did to offend you?

And now you are acting like you want to drive me away from the game. You aren't acting like Danny wants to flirt with Tab, you act like she hates him and wants to attack him. Since you are acting like this, I am going to contact The Perilous Dreamer and lodge a complaint about it, unless you apologize and delete the posts in question.

To All:
I regret strongly that Jame came to see me as personally attacking him (no matter that it took an astonishingly long time for all participants to realize that this is what had happened).
I regret VERY strongly that my expressions of astonishment that anyone could perceive matters this way - along with my growing frustration about NOT having deliberately attacked anyone to begin with - resulted in my crossing the line into actually personally attacking Jame.
In consequence, I no longer believe that I can fruitfully contribute to this game (should it ever restart), at least not so long as Jame and I will both be players. I simply can't be comfortable in a situation where sensibilities have to be so carefully protected as is apparently the case here.
Thank you to everyone for the excellent time I had prior to this latest unfortunate evolution. I wish everyone success in their future endeavors, here as well as elsewhere.
Richard

Respectfully, and I assure you I mean that in every sense of the word, Richard? An apology usually involves an admission of guilt, an offer of possible recompense when approriate, and a stated or strongly implied promise not to repeat the offense. What I read here comes across rather strongly as: "I called you stupid? Well, I'm sorry you're stupid." I don't have the same patience as Admin Pete does, so ... this is your one chance to own up to your part in this fiasco. You both believe you were wronged, you both believe you were provoked. Just let it go. We all value what you have to say and want you here, contributing to the community.

Thank you to everyone for the excellent time I had prior to this latest unfortunate evolution. I wish everyone success in their future endeavors, here as well as elsewhere. Apologies to everyone for the outcome (Emphasis added - Jame not excluded). ********************************************************************** Just in case this still isn't clear enough: I apologize for the posts I wrote - born out of increasing frustration on my part - wherein I finally did directly address Jame in a deliberately insulting manner. I continue to maintain that the initial "attack" was no such thing and was only perceived to be such by Jame. That's the last I will say on this matter.Addendum: You know, I could claim that Tab's actual physical assault on Danny was a personal attack on me (her player), with much better justification than her water hose "attack" by me was perceived to be so by Jame. I wonder what the fact that this only just now occurred to me says about how it all unfolded?

Ah, sorry, I thought I had indeed posted here...
So this game will take an indefinite hiatus. I will keep this thread unlocked for anyone who wants to keep talking, though I hope the conversation will stay calm and not blaming folks. What is done is done, and we need to let it go. I understand that one or another of you may not want to play in the same game and there's nothing wrong with that.
