Uuughhh... the stuff that you just said was... just weird. Like, I'm not even going to say your response was that scummy in particular, but goddamn, I feel as if I'm obliged to reply.

Sure, but if someone decided to hammer so early in the day then it's a safe bet they're not town; unless the player lynched is scum, of course.
Some of the players in this game have innately shakey reasoning, even if they might turn out to be town, such as BRBP and Tanz (though we don't know if Tanz is scum or not). It's because of this that I really simply don't trust them to not hammer, even if they may be town. In other words, the person to throw down the hammer is ambiguous.

and it turns out that everyone's completely wrong because you put on too many votes on RB before he could even say anything.
I'm not clear on what you mean by this.
Stating a hypothetical situation where RB flipped town from a quickhammer where there wasn't enough evidence. Which would be incredibly stupid, especially given my above point which states that the person who hammers isn't guaranteed to be scum.

Also, are you saying you're okay with risking a mislynch while we're already 3 down?
Yes, if we get scum. I'd much prefer a mislynch over no lynch, at least we gain info that way. We're already in a bad spot, we can't afford to play it safe.
I don't know about you, but I don't think I would be that okay with a mislynch at this stage. I would be okay if we lynched scum, and only scum. You even said it yourself, we're in a pretty bad situation right now, but then suddenly your reasoning falls apart and you say we can't afford to play it safe? I'm not even sure if that makes sense? Usually when you're in situations where you can't really mess up, that's when you try to play safely, so you make it out okay...?
The only thing I can see as what you were trying to say is "we don't really have the option to play it safe anymore", which I wouldn't really consider to be the case, as that would be LyLo.
