This No-Lynch streak isn't good. Each time we No-Lynch, it's like giving an extra kill-twice power power to the Mafia. We can't just rely on hard-catching Mafia via Investigations.
I think the unintuitive thing is that lynching a random player helps town. If we had half the players, but still the same fraction of Mafia, that would be a large buff to town. In the extreme limit where all but one player is lynched, town wins with high probability.
I know that lynch mobs have a risk of being skewed towards by Mafia influence towards lynching non-Mafia, but I think it's not that large an effect that we shouldn't lynch. So, unless something changes quickly, I'm going to jumpstart the process by throwing out accusations based on mild suspicions.
