The thanks I get for saving someone's neck!!!
rofl!!
It was a joke. How can obv-sarcasm be missed so easily. Notice the bold part? I've already stated that being HoH puts a bullseye on your back from the people who disagree with your actions. It is the nature of the position. I won't be the last HoH to get a bullseye on their back based on their actions, just wait and see.

You may not agree with my methods, but I have done nothing other than try to put scum on the block with each of my 3 nominations.
As long as I am alive in this game, you can rest assured I will participate in every phase that is happening, unlike what you have done. Non-participation has someone on the block right now based on the reasoning of majority suggestion, keep up your non-participating ways and you may find yourself on the block as well. Let's not forget that you have had a few players looking your way suspiciously, too. Your choice to not participate in phases of the game is not helping your safety in any way. Non-participation, as the majority suggestion reasoning suggests, = anti-town.
Ever watched BB? Things can change in the blink of an eye from what everyone is expecting. No one is safe from eviction, including me, you and everyone else. There is still a POV, and the coup d'etat left and you never know who the evictee will put in power and who the new HoH will put on the block. Just because they say something, doesn't mean that is how it will end up.

Sly, so we agree that the veto being used quickly was probably wrong, correct?
Yes. It was a hasty decision to use at that point and it killed discussion.

Because I thought your issue was the fact that it was used. If it was the speed of it, I can see that. Although that seems more like a playstyle thing than a scumtell.
The discussion of kmd vs. Sens would have made it more clear if it needed to be used at all. If the discussion made it clear one of you were town and the other was scum and the scum was being voted out, there would have been no reason to use it at all, unless of course the POV holder was scum and had to get their buddy off the block. Calling the quick use "playstyle" could be a cover for Paltry. Paltry had POV at the start of the game. Assuming Paltry is scum, the plan of using it quickly if any buddies were put on the block to prevent such information being revealed, could have easily been discussed with the person being saved from the block instructed to present the exact "playstyle" argument that you have presented. Not likely, but it is possible. There are some very smart people that play this game and they just happen to be thinking ahead scum sometimes. If the discussion revealed you were both scum, there would have been no reason to use the POV, unless, like stated before, the POV holder was scum and using it to save a buddy. If the discussion revealed you to both be town and the person the POV holder was planning to save was not getting the votes to evict, there would be no reason to use it.

Sly, how the hell have you "saved Hewitt's neck"? You nominated him (well..Sens) for eviction.
See above. Hewitt is on the block now, he is far from safe, but I will be surprised if he is voted out over DisCode the way he most likely would have been if I put him up against Llama.
