Dan Maruschak​ that I think gets back to what Brand Robins​​ was saying about being so on the nose. I agree that it sounds like a raise! And you know what would happen next, maybe necessarily? One player or the other or the facilitator would need to pipe in with “that’s a raise, right?” Because resolution demands clarity. And then all the air is let out of the moment.

I have no idea at all how to build up subtext so that it’s functional useful. Maybe an audience driven system, where players other than the arguers privately decide on what moves are being made.
