The only way how I see ties can benefit town is if both tied persons are scum and someone else dies. I am sure though the scumbags will never let that happen; so tying is BAD. (hope this made sense )
My argument is that in the case of a tie, the person who survives should be placed in another tied vote the next day. If they survive that, it's probably reasonable grounds to lynch them (or at least tie them for a third day to be sure). That said, the more I think about it the more I realise it would most likely be impossible to arrange consistently. Never mind.
