it wasn't arbitrary to me. town!skitter pokes at anything that is of interest to her in the early game. scum!skitter hates her life. so one way of finding out which one i am dealing with is trying to see whether her pokes actually make sense and have solving intention behind them or whether they're there because they have to be there. and if i see her "poking" at something that really looks like a nonsense dead end, i'm gonna call it out because that would fit the image of scum!skitter more than town!skitter.
i feel like i have pushed at more miniscule things in my mafia career, but i don't know off the top of my head whether you've SEEN me do that, so i'll chill for now but

this game feels like mud currently in that i want to cool off from my skitter read but i'm not picking up strong scumreads elsewhere but also nobody is actually a strong townread either and fuck this game
i will attempt to get a better foothold in this game and figure out at least vaguely what is happening throughout this irl day
i said "fuck this game" which i say every game at this point
and it's because reads aren't coming naturally to me which means i need to start expelling effort to get them and i don't feel like doing that rn so i will wait a bit and hope thta something happens that enlightens me

Datisi, did I imagine that somewhere you said skitter bussed in a micro before? If I am not delirious, can you share that link?

His overall vibe is: fuck this game
And i'm trying to understand why
I dont think its too bad
And sorry for being so pedantic yesterday, i was getting annoyed
Pedit ok i guess

it's a bit of an oldie but skitt bussed her partner d1 and then won the game (granted, outed both pr's in the process but)
and @skitt, i'm glad the game isn't bad for your reads (arguably it is since you're scumreading me but whatever) but *i* am not getting reads therefore *i* am saying fuck this game
He's talking abt this one. I would again like to point out that its different from whatever he thinks i'm doing to you here, in that that one my partner was hevily under fire, so i just bussed hard (maybe after coming back from vla idk)
And this one if i'm partners with u i'd have just decided to randomly start bussing you as my first oush of the game, which i wouldnt do ...

Noted. I mean, I obviously know we aren't partners, so there is already a lack of merit there.
What I am looking for is the exact conditions the bussing started under. One of course busses when a buddy is going down regardless, which is definitely different than what datisi is describing, which is bus as an optimal strategy in micro games (which I don't agree with at all).
I'll give this a look later today. Thanks.

And I used the wrong buses. I believe busses means kissing. Fun fact to point out in all your future mafia games!

I'm p sure it was coming back after vla to see my partner widely suspected, i started mildly suspecting them, couldnt figure out a way off, so i ended up just going very hard and they got flipped nut we looked very unaligned
But take that with a grain of salt as it was like many years ago and its possible that i'm forgetting/confusing some of the details
