William has provided this list of typical excuses for stabbing an opponent in a multiplayer game:

Dave 'No it is a good thing, it is in your back to fix an itch you thought you had'
John 'I added it up and it was the only way I could win, sorry'
Wayne 'Hey, it was you or me pal'
Peter 'Sorry, but I thought it might help us both out, am I still losing?'
Steve 'Sorry, what am I meant to be doing with this knife'
Nick: evil grin, failed attempt at innocent look.
William 'I know I stabbed you but John's still the bigger threat'
