After you claimed lover and it was clear we weren't lynching you ever, you spent hours doing analysis including that on potentially scum-reading your lover partner. Which, if I called your bluff and insisted we lynch, you lose.

You didn't have to do any of that, you'd have likely won with less. So you cleared the hurdle by the height of satellites in orbit around Earth.

If you hadn't done that on that day, then I would have had you and Csargo about equal and made more of an effort to convince him to lynch you, and vice-versa, as opposed to only trying to convince you to lynch him.

I can cite the post(s) in question, but I already have when I was trying to convince you to lynch him. When you put Csargo's behavior as potentially villainous many times, I thought you don't do that unless you're town.

That was when you finally got really out of the way of my suspicions. Had you not done that things may have gone differently.
I said this a lot in the chat (to myself), but I really did want to vote Csargo at several junctures. You had a great case, even if it was misguided. Before the time when doing so would actually have amounted to throwing the game against my team - this was when I was still treated the game as unwinnable - I thought to myself how great it would make you feel, if you managed to convince me to vote Csargo and thereby lose the game. 'Pizza's so good he can convince a mugger to hand him a 20, a supervisor to endorse his promotion over them, and final scum to lynch themselves!' Same thing with Slaan, though I felt like I had to push back because the case was ultimately too ambitious turning on small points.

How could Town Monty resist the lure of such a detailed case against Classic Org Lurk-Scum Archetype? Really only the network impulse. If I'd had to claim D4 or earlier, I probably also wouldn't have been able to justify avoiding pro-Town self-sacrifice in the face of such good casework.


How about earlier in the game, D1 through Manasi's lynch? Something about the way I was interacting with Zack, among other things, led you to publicly declare an explicit townread on me.
