I am frustrated as all heck with coreyants right now because he has a problem, on top of all his other problems, called selective listening. I told him TWO DAYS ago that I had to do some real life work tonight and I gave him an approximate time that I'd be done, making very sure to add that I needed time to get home. I asked him to please be considerate of those facts if he chose to run a mini tonight. I don't know if it's just when I talk to him, but coreyants needs to learn consideration for others.
In the middle of my work tonight, I suddenly get a text from Hash that coreyants is running a mini that is scheduled to conveniently start while I am still working. I ask Hash to see if he can convince coreyants to move it back half an hour so I can finish my work and get home and Hash promises to try. I also ask coreyants if he can move things back half an hour so I can finish my real life work up and get home. Well... coreyants makes me send in game information via Messenger and he knows I don't use Skype on my phone, but I ended up nominated and subsequently evicted without a chance to play for my own safety.
I feel like coreyants decided to purposely be mean and get me into a mini with no chance of success because he knew I was doing work tonight and didn't have access to the tools I needed to play the game successfully. When others playing his minis need time to get home from work, HE WAITS FOR THEM AND MAKES A BIG DEAL ABOUT MAKING THE REST OF US WAIT. I got home shortly before the time I asked coreyants to move the game back to, so if he had actually listened to what I said two days ago and been considerate to my request tonight, the issue would not exist at all.
I need thoughts on this...

Did u fix your Islamophobia and racism problems? If not i should worry about that before worrying about some selective listening
Coming from my experience hosting many skype games, I see Corey's perspective on this. A lot of times, if you have a cast lined up waiting to play at an earlier time, you'll start without waiting for people who may or may not come on later. That being said, having someone selectively listen to you can be very frustrating and he should have told you that he couldn't necessarily push the game back an hour to accommodate you.
Aquamarine I told Heather before the game started I could not push it back 30 mins just for her. BUT I did let her play for the first 15 mins off call and send her info beforehand. It's not my fault they targeted her. The world does not revolve around her.
