I see what you've been doing, and I've tried desperately to dilute it.

Jenny has a rather cogent point that you use methods rather inquisitorial in intensity; and I must say that your frequent disclaimers exacerbate them.

Perhaps I'm a peculiar case, but every time I hear a phrase like "no offense" in this game, my hackles rise. Lord above, we're accusing each other of murder, impersonation and Arda knows what; insisting that we don't mean no trouble, guv'nor, is quite, quite redundant.

As for your bizarre approach to the quietness of some; you suggest ignoring them and pretending they aren't there, all to gain a point about sportsmanship. I was merely attempting to make an illogical case into a logical one; don't pretend they're not there, ensure they're not there by hanging the blighters. If you think about it, the two cases aren't so diverse; it's just that mine is active and yours passive. I don't like or trust passivity.
