    I mean, when have CFDs ever helped anyone. They always seem to exchange a reasonable lynch option for one that is essentially rand.

    Your team literally just got destroyed by a CFD in a game where you were a wolf.

    I seem to recall you being the successful target of one in Jabbz's game.

    And I don't think this is something you would forget either.

    In all seriousness he's been on the business end of CFDs at least twice, one of them directly and he still pulls out that line.

    The Logic lynch was never in doubt from very, very early in this game.

    Refusal to move off. Resistance to counters.

    If he's town, wasted 72 hours.

    If he's a wolf, he was bussed into the ground.

    Ok, and because it worked a couple of times I'm supposed to love them? You bring up examples when they have worked while forgetting the countless times they didn't.

    I just can't believe you'd ever actually have that thought considering your own personal track record.

    This argument makes no sense.

    Of course if you ignore the times they worked as huge successes, it looks like a bad strategy.

    Moving votes around at EOD puts wolves in awkward, uncomfortable spots and forces people to put their money where there mouth is. I don't understand the stance you're taking here.

    I am saying that CFDs for the sake of CFDs are a poor idea that doesn't lead to good lynches. I'd much prefer to actually lynch scum through a sensible and reasonable method than suddenly switch around votes and kill town just for the sake of "reactions".

    Change the lynch to someone else at the end of the day.

    Chinese Fire Drill - last second lynch on someone who previously wasn't in contention, usually because you don't have a good feeling about things.

    Or if somebody slips up.

    I never said it was for the sake of anything.

    You and Monty are both better lynches than Logic.

    Your oversimplistic reduction of my argument is nagl.
