I'm not sure what you'd have me do here, Nova, I'm really not. If I defend myself it's because I'm scum and worried about being lynched; if I don't address points against me, it's because I'm glossing over legitimate arguments because I'm scum and want people to forget them. Yr tunnlin dude
I'm mostly just going to let people decide for themselves whether the points you brought against me have merit (since I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't), but I am cocking a quizzical eyebrow at the suggestion that I should simply not have claimed at all. Should I have been able to predict how people would react? Regardless of how conniving scum-me is in this hypothetical, you can't seriously believe I could have singlehandedly orchestrated the conversation in a way that focused on my claim and the consequences thereof to the exclusion of everything else. That could have been my intention, I suppose, but the reason that the conversation dominated everything was because that's really all we had to look at given a janitored (or tempjanitored) kill and no day one lynch. Had I decided to sit on the information I had, what would we have discussed instead? What does your fantasy day two look like in which I didn't claim? Who would you have wanted to see lynched without my actions and posts that stemmed from the claim to consider?
I really feel like this whole thing is played out and you're beating a drum obody's going to march to, but... Hey, even if you're 100% wrong, you're wrong with conviction, and that's gotta count for something.
(Also continuing to intimate I'm scum because I started a no-lynch wagon continues to be adorable.)
To move on, I'll vote: Truegreen for all the reasons I laid out earlier. I'm not married to this lynch, but he's still my top suspect.
