The day had already been extended several times, desu. The day couldn't go on forever, and Leafsnail thought Pandar was scum, desu.
The general explanation, desu. This was the short and simple response, desu.
And then it changes into "Pand might wiggle his way out"
This was one of the reasons, desu. Leafsnail's main worry was that webadict would say "Sure, have a 2 hour day extension" due to the already extended day, giving Pandarsenic time to land a vote on AN, causing a No Lynch, desu.
And then it becomes "No, it wasn't a hammer, even though I want to end the day after this final vote, which is the DEFINITION of a hammer vote"
The post Leafsnail made makes more sense when put into context, desu.
You're missing my accusation. I'm not blaming you for trying to lynch Pandarsenic (which is not scummy, since Pand was acting scummy), I'm not a fan of the way you jumped in, put the hammer vote in at the last second, then asked for the day to end without giving anybody else a chance to talk or Pand a chance to claim.
This post's accusation is different, desu. You're not accusing Leafsnail of getting a town PR lynched, you're accusing Leafsnail of deliberately landing a hammer blow on Pandarsenic, desu. Thus Leafsnail pointed out that he did not land a hammer blow at the last second, Leafsnail's vote came 4 hours before deadline, desu. A different accusation will get a different response, desu.
Again, Leafsnail fully admits to screwing up royally, and agrees that, with the benefit of hindsight, it would've been better to push a NL or extend the day, desu. However, messing up badly does not necessarily mean Leafsnail's scum, desu.
