Random voting scum in a game with only one scum is an awesome feeling!

If you wanted lotsa discussion, you done signed up for the wrong game. Less talking more lynching.

We shouldn't be lynching randomly, we should be lynching based on low information.

For example, maybe 3 guards or 2 guards and an assassin just vote for 3 random different people, then everyone else just piles on votes wherever they feel like and eventually just lynch one. This way the majority will never target the king, and you will never have a case where the assassin chooses the king for lynching and gets voted by rest of town.
theoretically this gives the assassin more information.

This information is weak if the town is being quiet like they should, and I seriously doubt the assassin's EV gain from such information is even close to the assassin's EV gain from random strategies targeting the king for lynch.
