- MiX also ended on the EFHW wagon, setting up the hammer. He very well could've stayed on me or on Joth - both of whom were viable late-lynch candidates.
Note also that MiX was trying to argue against this interpretation by asking what use his Joth case would have been anyway when EFHW flipped scum, and yet was not able to offer a town motivation for why making his self-claimed "big pile of nothing" Joth case when I asked him about it later (see #1023, which he never responded to, and which nobody else seems to want to pick up on).
For if EFHW flipped town, of course, but you clearly didn't think that could ever be possible.
What are you on about?? You are just so blatantly stubbornly refusing to engage with my actual point that I feel like one of us must just be missing something huge, because otherwise you make no sense.
Here is the timeline:
1. You say at #1017 "Looking back, my joth case is a big pile of nothing if I knew EFHW would flip scum...". This statement was made when we all know that EFHW has flipped scum.
2. In the very next post, I point out that if you knew EFHW was scum (i.e. by being scum), then it makes perfect sense for you to have been trying to make a case on not-EFHW in the run-up to her lynch. What I don't see is a strong reason for town!MiX making that same post. You're now, in D2, trying very hard to argue that your D1 case was useless, but not giving me any feel for why D1!town!MiX would have decided to put effort into building a Joth case and posting it at just the last-minute point where people were converging at least on the EFHW wagon in lynch-sufficient numbers.
3. You respond at #1021 saying "Also look at the timestamp of my big joth case: less than an hour before deadline. It's useless." -- you're definitely trying to prove that your case is useless, but evidently also trying very hard not to own the fact that you posted it in the first place.
4. At #1023, I said: The question here is not "was the case on Joth useful?". The question is, "given that you were definitely pushing a case on Joth, what do we think your intention in making it was?". This is because the only reason I can see for posting a Joth case that close to deadline was to sway some votes onto Joth.
(There is a loooooong gap where you go on to other things and never revisit my questions. During this time Shraeye characterizes the above as a town-v-scum sort of interaction, and since he seems to scumread me for that, I address it and point back to #1023).
5. You finally appear to respond to #1023 at #1176 with "For if EFHW flipped town, of course, but you clearly didn't think that could ever be possible.", which doesn't seem to address anything at all. Are you saying that you just wanted to have a Joth case out there
in the post where you voted EFHW so that if EFHW flipped town people would just look back at it and give you towncred for saying you wanted to lynch someone else
while actually voting for her anyway?
Lastly, why on earth are you asserting that I seem to think that EFHW couldn't have flipped town at the EoD anyway? Would you feel your Joth case was suddenly great if she'd flipped town? As I pointed out back at #1018, there's nothing tying EFHW and Joth together in terms of alignment in your case, so I don't see how EFHW's flip affects how good or bad you might feel your case is, and if my reasoning is coming from a place of knowing she flipped scum, that's because I know she flipped scum, and I'm scumreading you for your behaviour in the run-up to that flip.
So anyway, what am I missing that makes MiX's response, or refusal to acknowledge the stuff I'm asking about, make any sense? Does anyone else find his replies just infuriatingly evasive? Or does this just make sense to everyone else, and if so, could someone explain to me what I'm missing it in more accessible terms?
