I also really wanted to apologize to the oter players, and WAMD too, about my aggressiveness, and day 3 when I basically just insulted the other players in the game.
I went far too far. I had originally planned to apologize around the end of day 3, but then personal stuff came up that put me in a bad mood for the rest of the day. I'm glad I subbed out next day, probably could have survived the day, but I wasn't feeling up for mafia.
I'll give some insight into my more intentional and planned actions/behavior:
My plan coming into this game was to try and create a cycle of throwing people in and out of the frying pan, and getting through as many as possible. My 1st post mentioned this: I said I would deliberately work towards a more competitive vote. My overall strategy was to try and get out of the game as fast as I could, but make sure I could survive (feasibly) till around the end-game. Every single one of my cards would be used for someone who I thought was scum; if I lost the game because I burnt 3 scum, I would be fine with that, would practically be a god at scum tells XD. I didn't think I needed 100% certainty that one of my targets was scum, but I still probably would've waited, barring pressing emergency, till I was more certain
I was legitimately either trying to make day 1 better, or believed day 1 could be useful. Tbh, I'll credit it to the mafia universe games I was reading through, where, say in Sorian's game, day 1 moved along at a pretty steady pace. In this aspect I succeeded until I left the thread for a couple days. I had sort of wanted to get through everyone during day 1, probably could have had I spent the time on it. This also worked to my advantage in trying to draw up a list of scum candidates/targets.
My targets were generally people who I had previously suspected of being scum, but didn't vocally go after so much. I had though *Splinter was scum during day 1, and didn't plan to go after him that day (I mentioned a theory where *Splinter was scum, and he thought I was hidden partner. It was some series of posts that made me think that, in any case, I didn't mention it in the thread until I was actually going after him). Barrylocke had done something strange the day before that bothered me. Batsnacks, when I went back, had been in that group during day 1 trying to limit votes to a specific group of players, it just so happened that since the flood of TheExodu5 votes and *Splinter came later, I went after him instead. Cabot and Kawl also know that asides from my first night action, I sent my night actions about 1-2 hours before deadline, so I didn't put too much thought into them.
I think around the end of day 1, I sort of decided when going after Splinter that I would play it as if I was town, because I didn't have much confidence in my targets and sort of expected a situation where I was near the end game. However, the overly helpful thing wasn't really an attempt by me to look super towny, it was meant to look neutral (don't take anything significant from it). Was sort of disappointed by the amount of "feels sort of scummy for posting so much".
Day 3, my whole thing on risky and conservative play by scum. I explained this in the thread, but didn't really at the same time. I just sort of noticed that scum had made extremely safe kills 3 nights in a row. At first, I thought I could use it to identify the players in the game who I thought were more likely to play like that. However, about 30% through fleshing it out, I thought that scum could also be more likely to play that way is something risky had happened, and they were on the edge. This was one of my reasons to believe WAMD was scum. The other was something I had only noticed during day 3, WAMD had claimed spy, with flavor of being a patron, and then her fleshed out claim she gives the role name mysterious patron, and never really mentions the spy thing again
Also WAMD, you played great.
