There is nothing you need do, skitter. It is okay. All is right in the world of mafiascum.net.

The variety of criticisms, encompassing both broad commentary on holistic play and targeted responses to specific posts, signaled by a spread of quotes, post links, and descriptions, are unimportant in the grand scheme of things.
All that matters in life is NASCAR, my happy place.

I picture myself in Daytona. The year is 1981, and I am a young child. I am enjoying the atmosphere: the people, the lightning fast cars, the sweet food, and the great American spirit which binds it all together. Richard Petty's baby blue and red Buick, #43, is a blur every time it comes around the track. I am so enraptured and youthful that the scorching sun does not deter me from jumping with excitement every time it comes around, nor from dreaming that I might be allowed to ride in it...or drive a car of my own one day. I enjoy my vanilla ice cream, and feeling my heart race next to the cars as I watch him cross the finish line.
I am happy. I will not mald. There is no mafia game. Richard Petty is the GOAT.

I think contextually it should be very obvious, first given the substance of your post, and second my more direct response of 1777, that I think you have not actually read the posts I made on Cakez whatsoever.

I do not encourage engaging with me now about it, because I actually
will
mald instead of shitposting about it. I much prefer to just accept that you will always do shit like this, preemptively dismiss things without paying them any attention because your own instinct is more important, and just get over it in 10 minutes.

I can definitely elaborate more later, rather than count on players to link descriptors to posts that aren't within 10 pixels of each other, but it will wait.

sorry, i am only able to connect meanings to posts if they're 5 pixels or less to each other, can you please include some arrows or something for me too

oops reasons probably imples that I actually have reasons. but my reasons for voting you are mostly that nobody really seems to scumread you (which I find odd because I don't think many people are townreading you) and I have disagreed with a lot of your takes this game

i mean, ok:
- why does nobody scumreading me mean that you should vote me (kinda just trying to understand this thought process here ...)
- which takes do you disagree with?
- in general, do you have any spicy reads you'd like to share?

Faker, I looked at the quotes from Cakez surrounding Mare and I do agree that him pivoting off of Mare into Pooky so quickly is a little questionable. But his explanation later on that it felt manufactured makes sense, and it also makes sense that he would jump at something smaller given that he just played in a game where Pooky was scum. In general, I don't think Cakez has had much of a scum agenda this game. He doesn't seem to be trying to build connections with others which is what I would expect him to do as scum. Your insistence that Cakez is scummy shifts him down to null-town to me while I do think his posting aligns with town Cakez, the content is generally lacking. It's unfortunate game start coincided with the holidays.

I think you're a bit out of order here; Cakez was voting Pooky, went on a posting spree about Mare's push on him being terrible and her feeling fake, and then explained that
Pooky was definitely scum for the vote on me and thus he did not want to move his vote. That justification for not voting Mare is what especially stuck out to me and instinctively made me want to flip both Cakez/Mare, though I do not believe in preflips.
I believe someone asked why Pooky's vote made sense, and the answer is that twofold: First, Pooky has legitimately never seen me be so friendly and sociable in a game, and he's seen
plenty
of towngames, and second, in my mind at the time (though Pooky voiced a different opinion recently), Pooky's takeaway from a prior game was that pressuring me yielded a stronger read.
I do not expect Cakez to know the above, but I felt that his vague criticism that
the vote felt manufactured did not really resonate with me, and even in a world where I accept that it might look that way, it is unclear why Pooky is "definitely scum" in his eyes and worth more of a vote than Mare who has been shoving him in bad faith, bad votes on Skitter, fake reactions, etc.

It feels weird because most people in this game have received pressure. I think all townies go through suspicion at one point or another, so you sort of remaining on the fringes of that is weird. That part was sort of a gut thing so idk if I explain it too well.
Some takes were: Datisi early game was "cool", SA beetlejuicing was scummy. I know it is only two though...
I gave my reads yesterday. I think my most spicy read atm is that you are scum. Also, I read 1705
I don't read your quoted portion of SA's bigpost as backwards justification. Although I do agree that the reasons given weren't that scum-indicative (for IV), I think it is a reasonable belief to have as town. Ok, the stuff on IV later isn't too great either. I don't really understand why you called him out for his nsg section either.
It just seems to me that you can't really read SA based on his takes because he is perpetually behind. So I would read him based off his real-time interactions and, again, I don't think scum is that open about "beetlejuicing" which makes him a town lean for me.

BTW, I didn't mean that you(skitter) can't read SA. I mean that this town as a whole should put less factor into SA takes when reading him.
