I think you're being kinda obtuse because it's obvious what part of the post I'm referring to.
"I don't like this one bit, especially coupled with *unvote post*"
As in you said "I don't like this" and followed that with his unvote post. I don't know why this is so hard

First of all, this is bullshit: Show nested quote +Dirkzor, Risen, Sloosh, Rayn and Oats (clarity has been mentioned too) should be eliminated 1 by 1 in terms of rating of their overall posting to determine who is the optimal lynch for day 1 and ultimately who will be most useful in an endgame lylo scenario. Why would you say this? Also why did you hide your vote on Oats behind RNG as it was not RNG for you?
I, um, might have coached holyflare in a previous game and taught him indirectly that one of town's goals is to eliminate LYLO Liabilities: (link). Granted, in that game he was the cop, but he's probably just parroting things he's learned from me.

So hey guys. I gotta go in appoximately 1,5 hours and i can't be sure if i am back before the deadline so could we just decide the lynch to some extent so i can be a part of it?
Holyflare: For what i said.
Dirkzor: To me it seems like he is really wishy-washy about everything everytime he posts. Only when he is "pushed into some direction" he makes some conclusions.
I dunno which is worse?

No no, I think you're misreading, I said especially with - the vote dirkzor bit and the bit in the spoiler underneath.

I'm still catching up on the thread, i haven't read everything yet. HOW CONVENIENT that you're leaving now!
So. Why the sudden activity burst? Is your only excuse for posting tons of crappy oneliners that you somehow couldn't post? How were you planning to help town for the first 3/4 of D1 with your level of activity? Why shouldn't I lynch you?

Cool shit. Rayn, it is a random lynch.
No it's not. It is not. If you know the target before you say if you agree/not with a random lynch it's no more a random lynch. I was about to tell you you're being silly, then I suddenly understood what you meant. The fact that I was confused for a moment suggests to me that there isn't that much to be made of the point, though. Now do you think Blazinghand is stupid enough to not know this in the first place? As he proposed the shit. I don't think that much of it. It *is* a conversation starter, and what was the agenda? Random lynches never go through. Generally I find random lynch stuff really null, because I never really get any decent reads out of either the proposer or the followers. You know, to me it did not look like a conversation starter. BH never said it was, at least before someone else (Clarity) said so. To me it looked more like "let's gun for Oats as he was randomed" and then BH developed a shit read on Oats.
the #1 way to kill a conversation starter is call it a conversation starter (just like calling a vote a "pressure vote" makes it much weaker). town 101

rayn, I think whatever you've found, you haven't found.
The reason I was struggling so much with HF is that I generally found him reasonably townie, but I thought what you pointed out had merit. All his explanations make sense to me now though and he's stuck around and defended himself and pushed his ideas.
Added to this, the fact that in some ways he didn't "get" the suspicions to me is a bit of a towntell.
