It's because you were scum the last game both here and on CFC.

Yes I did actually. But Double A came in and chose to vote me over edse (when it was tied 1-1 between us), so that ship had already sailed.

Why did you not leave the vote on edse and try to convince Double A? Admittedly, he is a goof, but that way you had a chance… Double A wasn't much of a mafioso.

There were like 20 minutes left in the day and I had to go afk in less than 5. I already gave plenty of ammo against edse for Double A to consider -- not just the last day phase, but for a few phases before that -- and he chose to look the other way. He made his choice. And regardless of my feelings of double a / edse, any lynch was far better than mine.

I could've been convinced to not be a goof. It probably wouldn't have been that hard.

in fairness I was caught up in #implications

Got to hand it to edse, really. Given where we were the previous evening, he had to pitch his efforts just right to weasel out that lynch.

I understand Zack's decision. If the round is almost over, and Double A is not convinced after all the work Zack put into it, Zack's only option is to either be stubborn and get lynched, or to play the "if I am wrong" game and try to lynch anyone but himself.

In my opinion, Zack's choice is tactically correct, even if it doesn't win the game. He didn't have that many options left and he needed to make a decision to save the game, and his options were down to either stand pat and await his death, or try to lynch the only person available to him.

Under time pressure and having to leave, I think Zack can leave this game knowing he tried all the available options.

If he had time to sit and try to convince Double A more, then perhaps keep to your convictions is better. But, I've made decisions like that many times. In final 3, the other townie needs to vote correctly or I will self-pres.
