My Little Pony: Friendship is Mafia

So you're saying I'm a bad person because I actually was playing the game seriously as opposed to joking around and not trying to elicit any information whatsoever? What, as Town am I just supposed to vote to lynch in the dark?

I have no idea why you're insinuating that my actions led to Power roles revealing themselves. I never once actively attempted to out power. Like at no point did I say "If you are the PO or the Vig, please respond to this message in this way." I never fished for those roles. It's possible that the PO or Vig or whatever responded to a content-laden post I made in such a way that armed you with an accurate suspicion, but then whose fault is that? My only goal is to spur activity, and it's their responsibility to prevent leaking the nature of their power role in response to my inquiries.

But Snake, everyone is just playing for fun. Stop harassign everyone and criticising their games. We're all just having fun and your game wasn't great.

I like how your passive-aggressive insinuation here is that you're a far better player than I or anyone else here. I'm not harassing anyone. I've deliberately complimented everyone but Verified for at least improving as the game went along. Gem repped me for the criticism I've offered and Sifright seemed to appreciate my insight as well. Some people who play the game actually want to improve their play and be criticized for the mistakes they've made.

As for my confidence, holy shit, Snake doesn't think he's bad at something he happens to be good at, call the police! How dare Snake express an emotion like pride, he should always be self-deprecating! I'm not going to force myself to be modest. I'm a confident Mafia player who believes he knows what he's doing. If you don't like that, fuck off. Although it's really ironic that you of all people are criticizing me for being "arrogant," given that nearly every "serious" post you make in a political thread constitutes the very definition of that same kind of confident arrogance. In other words, pot, you're calling the kettle black.

EDIT: And how the hell am I being "super mean" when I'm doing the exact same thing Fenris and IHMN and others are doing in criticizing play? IHMN called Sifright "stupid" several times over; was that "super mean" of him? Nah, it was accurate. Insinuating that your Mafia play is "stupid" or "poor" is not the same as insinuating that you are stupid or a terrible person. It's like, Smarty, you have political opinions that I consider stupid, but when I half-jokingly mock you for being a communist I am not saying you, Smarty the human being, is an idiot simply for falling far left of me on the political spectrum. The same principle applies here. I'm criticizing people's games, not insulting their honor.
