K, we need to think this through. No hasty orders. It's fairly clear we can't get at him, and he can likely get at us. We want to stall, probably.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #162 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:31:02 AM »

Jesus, and here I was trying to make it as obvious as a monsoon that I was trying to avoid those types of questions.

Ugh.

I'm fairly sure that Guy's obliviousness would miss Hurricane Katrina. I'm only guessing that Purvis answered quickly because it didn't irreperably break things.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #164 on:** August 06, 2011, 02:12:37 PM »

Frustrating as things may be, I'd rather not delve into insulting other players.

Time to enact Serp's Law of Mafia: When you fuck up, the best recourse is to dig yourself deeper and go completely insane.

It was merely an observation. Looking forward to where this goes.

So I'm bad with that sort of thing. So sue me.

And no, I don't find this statement insulting. It's true that I have problems like this, after all (it comes with being autistic).

UncertainJakutten · « **Reply #167 on:** August 06, 2011, 08:27:24 PM »

I was still unnecessarily harsh. I apologize for that. I can also see where you're coming from with the autistic thing. Either way, my conduct was unnecessarily mean so...I'm sorry about that.
