Well Firth, I'm currently also playing in the WWII Homefront game hosted by Balsiefen, along with some others playing here. You're welcome to check it out if you have doubts regarding my noobness
Maybe I'm the less experienced player here in terms of games played, but to use that as a reason to start a bandwagon (or try at least, since your vote was still on someone else anyway) in this particular game is pretty silly.
You said you thought there was little time left for a lynch. I can buy your "misread" reason, but even if we did have 24 hours this is a 7 players game, so how hard would it be to avoid a no lynch with only 4 votes required?
Scums would want an early lynch rather than no lynch in this setup I think, simply because they could bring forth a LyLo situation very quickly. Therefore Day 1 is more important in that aspect because the town can't afford a completely random lynch, contrary to bigger games.
With that in mind, the fact that you :
a) Wanted to start a bandwagon
b) Conveniently thought there was little time left
c) Targetted who you thought was an "easy lynch"
d) Defended yourself by wanting to avoid No lynch, while a quick lynch could be even worse, and not relevant because of b)
e) Also said that you didn't really start a bandwagon because you didn't unvote...
Makes you look pretty scummy to me.
