You'll probably drag me into a third round, because I'm a sucker, but this seems to be a clear indication to me that, yes, you are just trolling.Some evidence of this?Huh, going from "stone" to "concrete" now. Which isn't stone. Sure, some forms of concrete were used in Egypt and in Rome. They weren't used in Medieval Europe, as the recipe was lost like so many other things. But, huh, it is funny how every time we look at what "medieval europe" really was like, you switch it up and start relying on it being fantasy. You can't keep a consistent line. Huh, you looked directly at your own claim that people would die in jail because no one cared for them and you'd be hung in a day or two anyways, and now that that isn't convenient you start talking about fair trials. I'd bring up the medieval legal system of magisters, but you'll either claim that Waterdeep is different (which doesn't matter because this isn't Waterdeep) or start saying how it is a "fantasy" game and therefor it doesn't matter. Because your own points don't even matter to you. And you'll dismiss your own arguments in favor of a new argument just so that you can't be wrong.Ah, I missed this the first time. Since I don't make up things just to be convenient and dismiss my own words, or make claims that are blatantly false then ignore that fact... no, you don't argue like me. And your attempts to just keep insulting me are just tiresome.I don't know why the constant veiled insults and put-downs give me the feeling you don't like me. Gosh golly, it sure is a mystery.Do you even remember the point I was making with this background? It was a super simple one, the whole corrupt sheriff thing was just throw-away fluff. The real point was making a character who came from outside the region that the rest of the party was supposedly coming from. Interestingly enough, no books tell me what region I can come from. I don't see how an "accepted guideline" for a normal game is that I'm not allowed to make my own backstory and decide my own hometown. You and everyone else gets to vote on where I can come from, which backgrounds are acceptable, which classes are acceptable, obviously which races I can pick. Where do I get to make a decision? And you've berated me again and again, not over my actual point which was the region-locking, but over how escaping from a corrupt official is impossible. You did this by changing the backstory (limited to barely a sentence) and then using the altered version to say my original idea was impossible. Based on me somehow joining your table and being subjected to votes that I've never been a part of. And then you dare to say that you are just "arguing like I do" as you increasingly just flat out lie and shift the goal posts to make yourself the eventual winner. All the while telling me how unreasonable it is I want to decide details of my own character's backstory.</blockquote>
