Your certainty at the beginning of Day 2 began to look to me like werewolvery. I was going to be all after you on Day 3. In fact, Mr. U's case against you on - what - Day 5, was precisely what I had been ready to present on Day 3.

People ask why I commited suicide... Well...

Firstly, I worked out that double lynchings would help our chances of winning.
I continue to be against multiple lynchings. Here's why: all the mathematical working out you do cannot account for the additional days of discussion rendered by only lynching one victim per Day. The discussions and analysis, and give and take all add up to more chances for a werewolf to slip up or vote in a way that reveals at least suspicion, if not guilt. And as you later pointed out in the post I'm quoting, your conditions were not followed, and therefore your outcome was anything but assured; which of course is completely to be expected in the dynamics of a game like this.

Oh, and I'm against suicides. It's the easy way out, like multiple lynchings. So there's a good reason to keep the cobbler, or at least the suggestion of a cobbler's existence, in the game.
