Ahem. This is quite strange of an opener. However, Scorpious flipped traitor, and mafia didn't know he was the traitor from their role PM, so nothing suspicious here. But wait ...
Where did this come from??? He goes from not supporting a Scorpious lynch ... to supporting an Awesome lynch ... to stating he could push a Scorpious lynch?? This is coming with an interaction with Vedith .... who is the person who you'd like on their good side, I would say, as being pushed by him is quite weird. This also fits in if Mario was scum, as he knows Vedith is town, and wouldn't want Vedith to push him early game. Ok!
This comment seems to me like a way to counter buddying accusations and just float by. Like clearly he didn't make things hard for Vedith if he agreed that he could get a Scorpious lynch .. quite easily through. Although this could come from town, as there's really no right way to respond to this. But because of the previous interactions, I'm leaning this to come from a scum mentality.
While Mario is a shitposter, I don't see why someone as town would say this. Sure, it makes things lighthearted .. but it also helps the scum float by.
This seems like a really weak attempt at bussing. It's reasoning is too flimsy to catch on very quickly, but associates Mario with pushing Carc.
This was aimed towards Scorpious. It's blatant shading, considering at that point, Scorpious had done more to scum hunt than Mario, and Mario wouldn't know Scorpious is scum. He's chainsawing onto Scorpious .. and seems to be lightly attempting to pocket Alban.

But any attempt to stimulate discussion assists town in formulating reads. Mario seems to be trying to put that down, while at the same time, claiming he doesn't have solid reads, without actually doing anything to make reads. Mario isn't providing something for Scorpious to counter. It's just shading.

Your No-Lynch gimmick is mediocre and your insistence on continuing it when everyone ignores it is bad.
...? I love how Mario is forming reads off what others do .... maybe they do this so people like Mario can get reads! Another mediocre reason to push someone despite not actually doing anything to keep discussion going.
More banter with Vedith, to get Vedith to sheep him .. hmm

Do you think that scum always try to blend in?
Once again, this comment goes nowhere except for the fact that it casts shade. Mario hasn't said how this is scum indicative yet
In post 210, MarioManiac4 wrote:If you don't lean anything on him, why did you need to comment on people voting him?
Once again, trying to limit discussion. It promotes an atmosphere of "I am going to SR you if you're not certain of something, and it naturally slows down discussion and cause doubt. Mario should know that this isn't scum indicative, and that people can have opinions of someone's vote, without having a tangible opinion on the person being voted. It's called voting for BS reasons.
Soft defends Alban
Sounds like SvS because once again, it doesn't really do much to push someone, and just puts a little shade.
Continues to soft defend Alban, but at the same time not push Carca. He's making her claim of self-meta being doubtful yucky, which makes Mario look like he's trying to convince Carca that Alban is town, and it looks like he's making Carca vs Alban to be TvT. It also makes Mario look good, but I feel like at this point, Mario and Carca realized that Alban can be mis-lynch bait later in the game, and they could get town cred to soft defending him. This whole interaction with Carc/Alban/Mario looks forced on behalf of Carc and Mario.
This seems tonally fake
Once again soft defends Vedith and discredits TChill

Like, Steel votes no lynch, sure, w/e.
But when he does it again, that's just trying to force a reaction when none exists. It's not going with the actual flow of reactions, it's like "HI GUYS DID YOU REMEMBER I EXIST YEAH I'M GOING TO DO THIS REACTION TEST YAY PLEASE RESPOND SO I CAN GET THE TOWNCREDIT"
Yet Mario didn't have reads at that point. Isn't doing what Steel did helpful in forming reads and causing debate? Mario seems to be grasping at straws to keep his vote worthwhile.
Forcing the direction of the game. If Mario's town, he himself said he's not fully confident in his reads. Therefore, why should the game be pushed in that direction?
In post 284, MarioManiac4 wrote:don't really think you've done anything noteworthy and neither has anyone else, mostly i think voting or at least the suggestion of such may jumpstart the game
I feel like Mario knew Steel was mis-lynch bait at that point in the game, and was hoping Steel made some sort of "slip" while being pressured.

don't have any scumreads so i'm just going to not use my vote for now
???? I have no idea how town!Mario would say this. A) He continues to lightly bus Carc without actually making a half-decent push on her, or even following up on the lead when he has no scum reads. Then because he doesn't have scum reads, he decides not to use his vote ... despite the fact that he had no reason then to vote Steel. In fact, he's trying to exit the conversation! He uses the flimsy Steel comment to start a half-wagon on Steel even though he never gave how any of it is scum-indicative. Then, when he's a little more certain on Carc, but not positive on it, he decides not to pursue it??? This seems like bussing.
This seems like another fake comment
Bah. I originally on my skim through, tonally read Mario as town. BUT THIS SEEMS FORCED ;-;
This seems like partner interaction
and .... wait ..what? My wall ended?? NEVER FEAR I SHALL CONTINUE WHEN I HAVE THE TIME!
