Killing an innocent TP brings the benefit of removing his confusing posts from the mix, and clarifying the real status of his posts to date. Killing an innocent SpM carries no equivalent benefit.
Huh?

My posts are confusing?

You must be reading them wrong.

The arguments I've given in my defense have been 100% completely and utterly logical. Not confusing.

My attack posts on SP, Estel, Firefoot, and you were not as solid as my defense posts (obviously, since I'm not absolutely sure of anyone's guilt), but my attack posts were way less confusing than most of the ones gunning at me.

Other people seem to want to lynch me because of a gut feeling or because of meaningless circumstances- no logic involved. When they've tried to involve logic I've blown huge gaping holes in it.

Forgive my arrogance, but my reasoning is a billion times more sound than the majority of the stuff coming at me.

In addition, as Firefoot said earlier, I'm probably less tied to people than anyone else on here, so you would think that my death would be the least meaningful.

Phantom has certainly denied his guilt loudly, & that is partially what has gotten him to the top of most people's 'lynch list.' But it is sometimes hard to keep your voice down when you feel that other people's accusations of you are especially ludicrous.
YES!! EXACTLY!!

I don’t buy the phantom’s theory that a double lynching would not necessarily benefit the Werewolves. I think it likely that they would go for it if they thought that they could get away with it, since there will always be other villagers to subtly maneuvre into the frame the next day.
That's where you are wrong, SP. When there are two very easy to lynch suspects and no clear-cut favorites after that, it is NOT easy to just "subtly maneuvre" another villager in as the next victim after the favorites are gone. After the prime suspects are taken care of new ones have to be found and there is always the possibility that one of the new favorites would be a true wolf. The wolves want to keep this from happening, and so they take their time in lynching the guilty-looking ones and make multiple free kills during the night.

Take it from someone who has done it- that's usually the best way for a wolf to operate.
