He screws up with #26, people gives him flak, he tries to pass that off as reaction test.
Fails, so he backtracks.
Like, it matches up wayyyyyy to nicely to be considered as just a possibility. The timing and everything.
This is bull. If I wanted to pass it off as a reaction test, I'd be calling it a reaction test. Show where my apparently subtle attempt to do so "failed", and why I couldn't have just said it was if I wanted to backtrack.
And
409, while true, was not my actual answer to question. The point of 409 was to say that you can analyze reactions to any post, not just ones that are designed to generate reactions.

I enjoy reaction testing a lot in the most perverted (No, not sexually perverted) way possible, but I can't seem to find the purpose of reaction testing with stuff like #26.
Like, if he was actually reaction testing with that post, what exactly was he trying to fish and what kind of reaction was he looking for while doing that?
Slayers gambit!!!!!!
Goddammit this confused me so badly. Not cool.

I asked him a question, and wanted to wait until he answered it. (He still hasn't fully answered it, but he kind of dropped what he was pushing anyway.)
Nope. What is off about them is, as you later clarify, are all vague “gut” reads that have nothing other than “I don’t like it” about them. Given that my reads don’t line up with yours and your reasoning is “gut” the first place my mind goes is scum faking reads.
Oh, I see. So it's not that my reads don't agree with yours, it's that I gave them at all, upon being asked, even though they weren't that strong. (Because I never have solid reads early day 1, and this wasn't even day 1.)
Nope. I’m pointing out that out for future analysis if you ever flip scum. Kind of absurd for you to claim I’m using that to “prove” you are scum.
Well you're at least making it look like evidence by pointing it out in the midst of an argument that I'm scum.
