tie vote count, all the actives in the thread agitating hard for rayn to be lynched and you say it's likely that nothing would have happened? i'll grant that i'm biased because i was one of the biggest agitators but i really don't see how you can say that. i would bet everyone else itt at the time tells you that it was close all the way, even robik who was ride-or-die on the poofter lynch and Based God harubear who switched at literally the last second.

i would buy this more if you hadn't outright said

with one minute to go, i mean seriously, how can you act like nothing was going to happen lol. it was obviously close all the way through, you acknowledge it yourself with this comment, you can't tell me that scum in your spot would just be like "oh well nothing's gonna happen time to afk"

re: Robik, i agree that the "i don't even care if you are town" comment was bullshit and terrible but contextually it didn't/doesn't read like scum pushing it too hard, it reads like mad as hell Robik getting roped into a fight regardless of alignment. it's null to me. he was obviously just pissy cause i'm better @ pushing lynches than he is

and so what if he was pushing town hard over scum? also null, if he's town he doesn't know either alignment and is pushing on his best read and just happens to be wrong. if he's scum you could just as easily argue that robik is going to be hesitant to push so hard on town knowing that he's saving scum...

of course that ignores the REAL explanation which is that robik had pushed so hard the whole time on poofybunnies... which is not definitively a townie trait, but is certainly more townie than scummy. if he's town then it makes sense that he's going to push hard on his scum read and push even harder as it becomes less certain that his read gets lynched. if he's scum, then once it came down to rayn vs poofy he had already committed with a hard push and has taken an excellent weapon in this scenario, the bus, off the table. why, as scum, commit to poofy as a fake scumread from the beginning of the game if it could mean that you end up with your hands tied in the event that town figured out your partner and you needed to bus? robik clearly left his options about as closed as possible, which doesn't necessarily make him town, but would be a bad play if he's scum.

this whole post kind of exemplifies the problem i'm having with your team, artanis. you and koshi are good players. but i feel like this case on robik is weak... it's the kind of "he was vocally wrong! he must be the bad guy!" lynch that i expect out of newbie townies who don't think through a situation logically and run with the first strong emotion they feel about a major event. and remember that tell we discussed earlier about harubear that turned out to be right? the path of least resistance vs most resistance? robik is by far and away the path of least resistance outside of your slot right now because he got beamed in the face with a carton of ostrich eggs when rayn flipped scum. path of least resistance isn't always scummy but when it's coupled with, frankly, pretty crappy arguing? yeah it looks scummy to me.
