    I understand, even if part of me wishes that you tied the vote and rolled the dice. Take a break as long as you need to, just know that we dont expect you to do anything more in these games than what you want to. Yes, at times, you put winning over others in this game, but please go back and find all the times that you didn’t. I am not saying that a break is not healthy, I just don’t want you to see yourself as a complete failure when you have inspired me to become so much better at this game.

    This is my thoughts on voting to tie it:

    Monty then wins or loses the single greatest game he's ever played, due to the outcome of a coin flip.

    If you were alive instead of me on final 4 it would have been a win, even if you lynch Csargo with Cuth. Gets the job done.

    Instead, he correctly killed the double voter, and survived attempts made by me and others to get Csargo lynched. He earned it.

    To me, if town earned it, they would have earned it by not lynching Xiahou and lynching even Csargo would have been fine, because it gets the job done. Town didn't quite earn it at the end.

    I allowed my townies to get lynched, in Xiahou and Cuth. I should have insisted, but if I do that, then I'm just the dick who cannot play mafia unless he always gets his way on every lynch.

    I ran into the brick wall several times of playing the game to win, or playing the game with friends I wanted to keep after the game.

    The only real rule: "Don't be a dick." I was trying not to be. Apologies to anyone who felt I was.
