Okay, so the gist of the hate for my slot is that I'm a) Pawn's slot, and b) my hammer sucked, just like Shenan said on page 30. I've already talked at length about both but I'll put answers to both issues here.
A) I can't excuse Pawn's play but for the sake of avoiding more pressure on it, I will simply continue to point to KvK, where he played like ass, was considered scum by most of the roster, got lynched, and flipped town and hope that one of the multiple people still in this game will remember that and take that into consideration. Marshy won't because he didn't play that game, so if he's willing to sit on that point, that's fine. I wouldn't blame Gheb either given that he also replaced out. Anyone else, I'm a little bit more expecting of you than them.
B) In terms of the hammer, it was an accident, but one I don't wholly regret. I regret the fact that he flipped town but that slot was going to be a crapshoot to read. He wasn't going to get shot by the mafia and even if a vig had existed (which I doubted), he still had to choose between he, vinyl, and nabe, who still had yet to commit to the game after replacing a surprisingly inactive and unhelpful Joey. I disliked his play in thread. I literally quoted all of his posts and said I disliked his play, particularly his switch from Soup to my slot, and his reasoning for Soup only made sense after he posted an explanation of it after he had been hammered. I'm not sure what the hell he was waiting for but his play simply was not good. This was the best opportunity to remove that slot and so I ultimately signed off on that lynch, even though early in the phase I did say I didn't wholly agree with it. I don't like lynching inactives, and I never have. I wasn't certain that he was going to flip scum either but I felt there was a good shot he would. Both of these factors turned me off the lynch, but I ultimately joined it because that slot simply had to go due to it not being removed by other forces (roles) and I recognized that the more I read YOLO/Cream Team's interaction towards the end of the day. Mix that with how much the game had slowed down and I lost my reasons for not joining it. I didn't mean to hammer but it's done and I can't take it back.
yolo you asshat you even liked my explanation for hammering wtf
I still think Shen is scum. I still dislike that slot in particular. I don't like how Nabe responded to me calling his slot out, nor do I like the lack of presence from Joey before him (something I don't expect from Joey at all), nor do I like his lack of presence now, something I don't expect of Nabe.
#HBC | Laundry Why didn't you get JTB's votecount before voting? Why didn't you ask people to push Shen more?
