Where is there time for me to wait for any of you to break the draw in Gazglums favor? I vote the second I see a post saying it's been drawn. I don't wait for reactions, I don't hold off, hoping someone will cross vote. I don't even just forget about it, pretend I haven't seen anything.
Fenn was always going to vote Gaz for self-defense, so in reality you had been waiting for hours for someone to break the tie in Fenn's favour (i.e. vote Gaz).
Pindicator, fair enough. I had forgotten how big a troll Bob can be. But I prefer playing under the assumption that the GM isn't lying. You can't play the game constructively any other way.
I could imagine a setup of 4 scum a + 4 scum b + 2 culties + 2 villagers.
of course it could also be 3 teams at 4 members each or 4 teams at 3 members.
I think the scumteams should be equal but maybe Bob had a different idea.

We've lynched absentee scum, village and maybe even third party before. You can't and don't assume that the vote is going to be cast.
But more importantly, the situation had changed. You weren't choosing between a Fenn and a Gaz lynch anymore. You were choosing between a Gaz and a no-lynch. In that scenario, there's a very high chance that villagers are prepared to switch, because the lynch uber alles. So I had a very good chance of saving him then, either with it staying as is, or even just pausing a moment longer and waiting for someone to break the tie.
Instead I killed him. And again I say to you, why would I push to save him and abandon just when it had a good chance of succeeding.
How would it have failed, after all? No one on Gazglum would have jumped off - Jabbz and Dtay were offline, Fenn was the other wagon. And, iirc, there was no one else online who wasn't voting Fenn. So it was no lynch or Gazglum lynch, unless I moved. So why would I move, as a fascist?
