We will be more screwed if we wind up not lynching anyone, and then losing 3-4 townies at night.
Lynches always have a chance of hitting scum. Night kills (unless we have a vig, or multiple scum who cross kill) will generally never hit scum. You can't rely on night kills to win the game; you must lynch.
Thus, it's pretty clear to me that the more often the town uses its lynch power, the better off we are. However, we still need to learn role information on a least a few players to get our bearings, so we have to let the game go to night at least once. If possible, I would like to try to end this game on day three or day four - the longer we let it run, the better odds the scum have.
