No, I think it's a valid point.
I love Chickadee as a person, but here's the reality: There was a meet at which a few users played a lot of lasertag, something which they heavily enjoy, and now they want to make this a title. But a lasertag-related title absolutely does not reflect Chickadee's presence on this site as a user. I've heard Chickadee's lasertag stories -- on Discord. What have I seen on MafiaScum? A great personality, enthusiasm, lots of posts concerning her art -- but very little about lasertag.
I wasn't meming when I made my post about my username. You can literally do that with almost anyone's username. skitzer is related to the Pokemon Skitty, give that account a Pokemon-based username! Everyone has a story for their username, so we can't really use that as evidence for the basis of a title.
To Maruchan, Majiffy and company, I get that you liked your time at Toronto Meet, and playing lasertag, and that one funny time when Maruchan lost her passport, and all that. I've had fun at meets too, but I didn't nominate vonflare for his really bad setup, or Shadoweh for sleeping, or Katsuki for being really good at arcade games. Because in the end, it was a meet held because of this site, one that only involved 16 people of thousands. And you can say "well yeah, but that's so many titles", but the thing with those titles is the evidence relating back to those is on-site. Not everyone plays Survivor, so not everyone's going to know why hiplop got Jury Darling, but you can link back to it. Oman's NK-Immune Miller Vig stemmed from 1 mafia game, but you can go back and look at it.
I'm happy for you, to have this newfound enthusiasm for laser-tag, and people who share this enthusiasm. But I don't want to see Chickadee shoehorned into "the lasertag girl" when that's simply not at all been her presence on MS.
