@mod, if multiple daykills are done in a castle, are they resolved all at the same time?
It's not stated anywhere in the rules. Since it's a single action, I'm going to rule that they all occur simultaneously, and if the mafia would achieve parity via one kill and then lose it via another, they do not win.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

Also, after reading up on the pledging rules, I'm modifying my previous statement somewhat: Porkens has become Auro's
3rd
. Auro still retains his 2nd. This grants Auro an extra action each phase, but his action carried out by Porkens must be submitted publicly. If Auro is the target of an assassination, his 2nd will die, and Porkens will become his 2nd.

Yes. A noble kill action consists of simultaneously killing any number of players who are staying in your castle.

why would I do that?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

So sounds like Auro will just be here regardless, no?

I agree, but Auro is worried that the scumteam could be Nero and me and we would win the game in that case.

Maybe the best alternative that leaves us in the best position with no chances of losing is no killing today; if Nero leaves, scumclaim. If I don't go to Auro's castle, scumclaim. Tomorrow Auro kills everyone in his castle but you, and then execute maxwell.

Auro can't die, I think you can travel and be safe? To avoid the nightkill I mean

I think this was accurate all along and if you guys think that I push both my buddies right out of the gate then lol

It's annoying to me that Auro was meta town reading me the entire game and now he's not as if my meta suddenly changed.. I don't really know if this is some kinda revenge for being suspicious of him or if he's just scum that needs a new town player to push on. Auro's played poorly and done nothing but push town and defend scum so if he's town and he's going to use his power to get us all killed then he can redeem his slot.
