Note that i am definitely NOT blaming you gor his death in the slightest. I take full responsibility for that. i want to know exactly why you hammered. Oh, and i know why fyi. This is your chance to explain to me why i shouldnt vote you. Theres one other person i need to question after you, then i can start my day. You are not in nearly as much hot water as my other target, so im starting with you. |
I unvoted moreno about 13 hours before time ran out, because I wanted to give both linkz and supermario a chance to post. moreno was at L-1 at this point, so if for example linkz posted first and chose to vote for moreno, the day would have been over without getting to hear from supermario. What really happened is that both came to post and linkz put moreno at L-1.
But right up until (almost) the end I wanted to give moreno a chance to prove his worth to the town, because I wasn't 100 % convinced that he is scum. I put a vote on you (which could have been anyone, really) as a sign of goodwill for moreno. If he came back to this thread to post and place a vote, he would not get lynched, unless I found it suspicious and hammered him. It looked like the other ten people wouldn't change their mind anymore.
I didn't want to wait until the very end, because he kept completely silent. I thought if he says nothing, then it's probably because he is mafia and sees no chance to survive anyway. I could also assume that at least three townies had voted for him (if it is nine townies and three mafia in this game) and I didn't want to make a mistake by having moreno not lynched and keeping a very suspicious person around for the next day, making myself suspicious in the process too (because I would get asked why I didn't hammer moreno). I had to undo my vote on you to not leave a door open for moreno. If I did nothing, moreno could have casted a last minute vote to survive. It would have made him very suspicious to be mafia, of course. But it also would have meant that the town wasted a day, because I wasn't consequent. So ten minutes before time was up, I could either unvote completely to have moreno lynched or vote for him to have him lynched.

That answer is satisfactory for me. Thank you for taking the time to write it out, though it is a little unnerving that you wrote so much....sounds like you feel really guilty about the lynch.
No worries.
Also, you said earlier "this has ended up being a disaster for town".
Again, no worries, it's really not a disaster. Perhaps had he had a major role...perhaps had he been a contributor...perhaps had he been both....perhaps had he received special information and taken it to the grave. None of those things happened, and trust me....those things WILL happen.
Instead, we're missing someone who was a big question mark, and NOW, we get to look back on the day and read what everyone said about moreno and ff. We get to see who was silent, who defended, who assaulted, who voted, the order, who cast suspicions, who they discussed with, who they agreed with.
I'm sure you can see already that yes, despite ff being a pretty obvious town (I thought so simply because of his play, not the 12th man theory), everyone we lynch and everyone that dies starts narrowing down the suspect list.
Yesterday, it was you vs 11 people (if you're town). Today it's you vs 9. You went from 25% chance to lynch a mafia, to 29%. Right now we have another one more mislynch possible, and then we could still no lynch, let mafia take out another town (reducing the suspect pool further), and then lynch. We have a good 3 days ahead of us at the very least. Not a disaster in the slightest. It's all part of the game. Town has never won without a mislynch.
