It has happened to me that when I tried to lighten the mood as I was quite obviously dicing my opponent, by making what I thought to be clearly a sarcastic comment, they ended up being reeeally annoyed. Probably this works better in person than in chat. Anyway I think it's far more likely someone was trying to make a joke than that they were being deliberately unfair and mean. As a general rule if you're getting really wound up about something because you interpret it in a certain way, that should be a clue to question your interpretation.

As a matter of fact, saying "easy" when you succeed at some really unlikely move is something I've seen often enough on Fumbbl that I'd go as far as call it customary. Not sure what to make of the comment about culture and language, I thought sarcasm and English went pretty well together?

What I like most on the podcast is the PAUSES after someone has finished speaking. Usually on a podcast with 3-4 people everyone’s jumping in and not listening to each other. Feels like it’s got room to breathe. Thanks to the host and producer no doubt.
