If you're going to lynch me, I'll try to make my point one last time before I hang and then I'll shut-up about it.

I don't think our first lynch was of any practical benefit, unless we just got lucky and hit one. If we had lynched a lurker, I think we would be seeing the benefit right now, with added discussion in this thread.

It may seem a bit cold-blooded, but I think these early lynches should be based more on practical reasons than on suspicions, until those suspicions can be backed up with evidence.
