I'll post my thought on this post by thrawn from the obs QT:
+ Show Spoiler +
As far as I'm concerned my first post says that I'm thinking about leaving, but it doesn't say that I'm planning to ask for a replacement. I was in fact thinking that since Lesrah hadn't been replaced yet, it was unlikely that someone would be available to replace me. I state that I'm going to discuss the situation with my coach (to try to find a reasonable solution).
The reason that I make a vote, is so I can avoid getting modkilled if I change my mind and keep playing anyway. I didn't try to find out if no-lynch is a valid way to vote. I thought that if it wasn't allowed, I would be notified so I could change the vote to myself (probably not good town play) or my biggest scumread.
The reason that I posted in the thread, is that I thought it might give town useful information in case they were planning to wait for me to address posts or if they were going to waste time asking me further questions that I expected not to answer.
I posted my reads because I thought some of them might be helpful to town. I also thought that my coach would discourage me from posting those reads if they shouldn't be posted (I didn't ask him directly. Maybe he didn't read my post in the thread).
I thought to myself that if a replacement couldn't be found, I'd stick around and vote and maybe try to make some posts now and then without putting a lot of time into it. I don't think that's how the game is supposed to be played though, so I did ask for a replacement between my initial post and the post containing my reads.
My motivations in those posts were to try to keep town as well informed as I could at that time, and to keep the options open in case you didn't have any readily available replacements for me. Does this alter your view of the situation, or do you still think it's bad form?

i'm kinda pissed that corrosion went ahead and made a post about wanting to leave and then dropped the no lynch vote without pming me first. saying you're going to ask for a replacement, voting no-lynch, and dropping a bunch of reads instead of just pming the host and not posting anymore is bad form. he basically wifom'd the crap out of the thread so he's gonna be a difficult guy to read, and then there's lesrah who has been completely impossible to read so that's 2 people that town can't really use as a part of their discussion. hopefully it will all come to a conclusion soon and they will either get replaced or modkilled/flipped before the deadline

You did great. If not for you, I would have had a much harder time finding SS town in n4
