I'm not playing games. they knew i was not interested and put the place up on the market before i even posted this. i was only asking if there was a way that i could legally not be responsible for the rent if they didn't find a replacement since they threatened to break the lease.
1- YES if you signed a lease, then then can hold you responsible if they DON'T find a replacement.

2- If you DIDN'T pay the deposit, they had to find a replacement because you didn't follow through, then YOU are the one who CAUSED the lease to be broken, not them.

3- And YES, if you don't pay a deposit, MAKE THEM cancel the lease, then say "look, they cancelled the lease", then you are playing games.
