Eye dee gee eye.
Why did i move my vote off you if you were scum? For that, we need to first now what a "vote" is and what a "lynch" is. Voting was first used in an official matter in Ancient Greece, used to elect officials into positions of power through the common folk voting them in, hence the name, vote. It was a shitty system, so the greeks made sparta and killed all the athenians. Lynching is when a group of people, generally holding the same ideals and higher in number, beat up slash kill slash torture a person or people for perceived crimes. The practice is not legal, but its still recently outlawed, as up until the late 40s lynching still continued to run rampant in the United States.
But why does all of this explain why i moved my vote off you? Well, its simple. Since if i vote you, i'll be electing to lynch you. But i dont want to lynch you, cause you're a pretty cool guy and doesnt afraid of anything. So i'll lynch gamma instead, and lynch you tomorrow.
