More like I strongarmed bfdirty into not voting against what turned out to be our strongest asset. I mean I see how you're painting it but in this case I think the ends totally shadow the means. And there was no colluding with kt on this point.

yes and no, if there'd been any urgency (i.e. a five man strong bandwagon on you; if it had mattered at all) I'd have changed back to Kt, if Kt had been bandwagoned to death I wouldn't have changed back. I didn't want a death but if I had to kill someone it would have been kt as I think a cursory glance at my posts will confirm. As for the checking her reaction bit, absolutely true (if not the whole truth about my objectives).

For a mafioso she was pretty convincing on the suspecting-me-of-being-in-collusion-with-bfdirty front, and there were lots of other "villager tics" so to speak; I may have overestimated how difficult it would have been to pepper a post with some of these, but they were the sort of things someone would have to take care over. I mean really in hindsight maybe I should have just stuck to my guns but hell I didn't want to hand the mafia an advantage and my suspicion seemed to melt pretty fast when I really thought about it. It was better reasoned than most but ultimately it still seemed like mostly overblown self-convincing guesswork on my part.

I hope you're not suggesting that this is how I thought of it.
Yes I mobilised voters, yes I tried to prevent the death of a villager, yes I wanted clues from the mafia's first night, no I didn't think the realisation that we'd bandwagoned a villager would help us much. Strange what language can do to a statement of fact, huh? (also, it's minor, but odd numbers during the day ain't a bad thing for us)

Believe me, Kt wants me dead a lot more than you do.

On the other hand objectively I'm only one of the two, and although I would say this, really really really it's the former.

I confirm this.

I told him I wasn't really voting for him, I would change back to Kt, and that I was testing her reaction. If you add a moderating clause to the second part of the sentence (i.e. "if it really mattered", which it isn't unreasonable to tell yourself is implicit) and you note that the last part isn't a positive lie but one of omission (that's not all I'm doing), then I think you'll agree that "Think's pm was a lie" could be a little disingenuous.
