If it came down to half of the players voting no lynch and the other half voting someone, I see no reason not to give both sides a chance to try to persuade the other side of their case.


Yup, this is me. I understand that strictly speaking it's a degenerate case. In practice, the fact that no lynch people win a tied deadlock of no lynch vs lynch foo on evens is a rare enough impact that whatever. If you don't have compulsory kills, how often are people even no lynching anyway? I don't think it's worth the overhead of having another rule, I guess.
