Nah. I don't take things personally unless you get actually personal. I understand issues and that's why I quit playing mafia for quite a while. When irl starts to bleed over into your game attitude it's not a good thing. It defeats the whole purpose of playing because it ceases to be fun. And
that
is what it should really all be about.

I am glad you were scum, not someone who actually believed those arguments. I don't think you made great choices and found you very frustrating to play against, I think most towns would have lynched you faster, and that's about all I have to say on the matter.
Here's the kicker. When I got my role pm there was no red so I skipped all the part I assumed was flavor and just looked at my role. I genuinely thought I was town until T-bone PM'd me to direct me to the scum topic I hadn't touched. Those thoughts were 100% genuine and whether you
realize
accept it or not, you played with the motivation of scum. I wasn't the only one to get that from you, I was just the most vocal and persistent.
Also, when I play as scum I put myself in the mindset of Multiball and genuinely hunt the other scum team, whether they exist if not, because it naturally comes off with the right mindset even if the reads are wrong. In short I "believed" everything I put out there so to speak, even after discovering I was scum. If that frustrates you, sorry, but you're directing your frustration in the wrong direction.
