To be honest, I find it odd that people are fairly blindly bandwagoning on Darkin without anyone giving any real reason to do so. In addition to that, you are claiming that people who go "no-lynch" are mutineers because they are bandwagoning that vote because the Darking bandwagon lacks reasoning. That is hypocrisy to a level I haven't seen in a while...
To me, that is highly suspicious. It seems you guys are saying "bandwagon Darkin or you guys are mutineers". I am not going to fall for that.
I'm saying that if Darkin is guilty, then mutineers would try to split the vote by voting no lynch. Normally, no lynch would make mutineers look innocent, however, if Darkin does prove to be guilty, mutineers wouldn't have just thrown him under the bus from Noff's random lynch starting, especially so early in the game where they could manipulate town.
If Darkin is innocent, I think there's a good chance this day might've been over by now. Mutineers would have gotten the lynch rolling and the pirates would have jumped at it as usual. Instead, it seems more like town jumped on the bandwagon and mutineers are trying to stop it by getting the rest of the town to jump on a no lynch bandwagon.
At any rate though, regardless of whether he's guilty or innocent:
1. We have no leads (this is first day after all)
2. Mafia already have the power to effectively block town action if they so wish
3. Not lynching will make their votes even more powerful (seeing as they'll be getting a completely free kill (or two) tonight
4. We still won't know anything about any of what happened today if we don't lynch someone. If Darkin is innocent, then we know that there's a good chance that Noff is fishy, and maybe the first mate will be able to confirm that. If he's guilty, we can begin scrutinizing who voted for what and see where things stack up.
Unless you have a better target for who to lynch, Brek, right now Darkin is our best target.
