Laundry, you need to screw your head on tighter.
You spent like half this game literally begging Ryker for permission to lynch scum, and then following him on a ML instead. Stop justifying his play in this game; I'm not entirely surprised that he has managed to spin the events of the game into some bizarro **** and pat himself on the back, but seeing you do it is baffling.
Stop making excuses for his play, and stop making excuses for your support of him in this game. You were the one that could have made things turn around in the right direction on D2 and instead you spent your time as Ryker's accomplice in derailing the game. You have a huge lesson to learn and instead you're coming in hard with whitewash. Learn to think for yourself and exert yourself when you are ****ing right. It's written clear as day right on the wall. Sacking up and being your own man (Ryker be damned) would have won you the game. Think for yourself. Just do it. Learn this lesson. Stop shying away from it.
And while I'm at it, the marshy lynch was completely ****ing ********. His play to that point hadn't been stellar but there was a visible and understandable root to all of his scumpicks and they had internal consistency. Furthermore the events that carried on in D2 were ****ing horrendous, as marshy's play improved dramatically and the people dogging him down (particularly you, Wash) were clearly not even reading the **** he was saying sometimes, clearly having read each post from the frame of "how am I going to spit on this one" rather than actual goddamn evaluation. Throughout that day Kevmo was stalling and evasive while marshy's play improved after the spotlight was put on him, and yet people somehow decided marshy was the better lynch, on the basis of ****tarded rationale like "oh why is it you're so much more vocal now that the pressure's on you?!?!" (WHAT!?) and "oh why are you willing to see scumJ NOW hur hur" (WHAT!?)
That's all of course not even touching on the fact that the logic that narrowed it down to marshy/KevinM was empirically and completely wrong, since J apparently selected the nightkill with zero influence by Kevmo. There's plenty of advice I could give Ryker from this game to improve his game some, but God knows he'd rather carve out his intestines with a ****ing butter knife than listen to it.
Ryker, your lack of humility about how things transpired actually blows my mind. The fact that you "had the scum" is meaningless; everyone knows you get your small handful of townpicks and after that can and will openly suspect anyone and everyone else that is alive. What do you really have to show for this game? Factually, I mean. Here's what: You shot town, lynched town, lynched town, lynched town. Each call was yours. You literally didn't do one thing in this game right. I'm not sure why everyone in postgame has decided to hold your ****ing hand about it, especially given that you are obviously completely impervious to any sort of self-reflection -- and thus any possibility of taking offence -- but whatever. Maybe this will give you something to look back on. Maybe.
And as an unrelated, personal note, I'm ****ing disgusted that you can still stand by your shot and justify it with rationale like "with EE gone no one would question me". Right. Because people questioning you would obviously have poisoned this game, right? What this game definitely needed was more compliance to your demands, not people with the audacity to think for themselves and the ability to do it well. Jesus Christ, man.
And I'm sure since my blow-up you've set about to convincing the rest of your clique that I'm some kind of Bardull 2.0 and that's whatever. I just wanted to slip in here, since I didn't get a chance nor desire to earlier, that my fury about what transpired had as much to do with your pompous, insulting, douchebag tone throughout the affair as the shot itself.
So yeah, go ahead and fire off your comeback without considering what I've said. Tell me what I am. Tell me I'm worthless. Tell me I'm nothing. Tell me I'm wrong, buttsalty, biased, whatever. I had nothing to lose or gain by posting this other than getting some things off my chest and possibly getting Laundry to look at his game a little differently, which could help his play in the future. If nothing else I've accomplished the venting aspect, and I do think Wash's the type to take good advice when confronted even if he initially thought otherwise, so I'm pretty done.
