To your list. Zeks obviously never switched his vote from StormTemplar to save himself, but he is at the top of your list for reasons already outlined. But the rest of your suspicions come from the Kenpachi vote list, and I'm wondering why deconduo, jcarlsoniv,Kavdragon, ShoCkeyy, seRapH, and Amber[LighT] were left out. Or perhaps you need to explain your methodology for including the names you did.
Once again, if you have suspicions, you must articulate them. Names aren't helpful, reasoning is.

iiiinteresting. It seems like town decided (again) to bandwagon onto an "inactive" then all went AFK and didn't switch onto a far more scummy person. Oh well, fairly standard for TL day 1, I guess.
I'm still torn as to whether an Alakazam should check zeks tonight, and report back. On one hand, we do want to be 100% sure. On the other, he's proven to be a decent lynch target already, and we really don't want to waste an Alakazam this early...
Gah.

Gah. Um did you even read the thread... Kenpachi was one of the most active players in the thread, but every single one of his posts seemed scummy, he didn't even defend himself once he was put into first place. There was also a very close race between him and Zeks where Zeks was also kind of active... we didn't go after an inactive at all, don't know where your information is coming from...\
Also if you look, there were like 6 - 7 vote switches near the end of the vote, as well numerous people were talking in the thread asking for kenpachi to defend himself... I'm lost as to where you came up with us voting an inactive and then going inactive at the end of the vote...

Last four mafia games:
Pokemafia: Kenpachi lynched as town for scummy posts Salem Mafia: Kenpachi comes an hour way from being lynched as medic Insane Mafia: Kenpachi lynched as town hero for scummy actions Haunted Mafia: Recieves Scummiest Townie award
If I were a TR and one of my buddies were in trouble, Kenpachi would be the first person I go after. He has a history of scummy town posts and the inability to defend himself (which usually results in him calling out his attacker). Day 1 is tough, but those who started the bandwagon need to watched.

I bet 100 esports dollars that in Kenpachi's first game as mafia no one will lynch him.

My problem is that I thought it was pretty obvious that Kenpachi was town BEFORE he flipped. Like I said, he posts like crap or "scummy" but "scummy" posting =/= scum. More often, it's townies who have contradictory posts and poor logic and all those other things (to an extent). It's better to look for people who say stuff like "This thread needs more analysis" and then they don't offer any of their own, or people who drop in and say "this person looks kinda scummy, this person looks kinda scummy" and then they disappear after that.
For example, I voted for zeks day 1 because his posts are. for the most part, neutral/non-committal. The "kinda sorta maybe" posting is the kind that I'd consider scummy. Also people who say one thing in the thread, but then "change their minds" at the end of the day and vote for someone without a solid reason.
The ordering of my list wasn't by rank or anything, just as the names came to my head. zeks I explained.

Okay, so he knows that Kenpachi is a bad poster when he's medic. Comments about Gabriel. (Note that bad poster =/= mafia. I hope we've all learned our lesson from lynching Kenpachi?)

One quote is a throwaway reaction to the day 1 post, one quote is asking about rules of the game, and the rest are useless but harmless posts. Like I said before, if he had taken even a second to look at ken's play in salem he would have seen that ken spammed like crazy even though he was medic. He might be active but he's certainly not helpful, and I think he knows it. Personally, I *do* think good analysis can be done day one. My vote's with gabe for now. Again, Kenpachi is town.

I don't understand why people are letting Kenpachi off the hook for bad posting. So what if he has a history of being less than stellar for the town. We cannot allow him to spam and distract the town because even if he isn't mafia, this helps the mafia. He is playing in a way that benefits the mafia, so even if he isn't (though I think he is), he is dangerous for the town. I really don't like the defense used by darth and meepak of "oh, well this is just how he normally plays". Townies don't intentionally hurt the town by doing what kenpachi is doing. I'll hopefully be back in a bit before the vote ends, but I feel safe in putting my vote on Kenpachi. Every vote on him is a vote to clean up the town. youre dumb. what if i happened to be DT or Medic? Zero response to DC's attacks, just semi-claims to be blue to avoid a lynch. Obviously he takes it back a post later, but I just can't get over how disruptive a move this is. Complete turnaround... starts the game off saying how he thinks Kenpachi is a bad poster. Then he changes his mind because Kenpachi continues posting poorly? Not to mention he's the last vote.
Brocket playing the newbie card quite a bit, which I don't like. But

If Gabe gave solid arguments that were easy to follow then I would honestly have not voted for him. It's like a vote for reason. As it stands I won't be changing my vote for this day phase but I admit it was too hasty.
I think it should be emphasised that any one of us voting for gabe could be mafia too (or people voting off infund for that matter) and with 31 players it won't be that hard to get gabe out of the hot water if we want to keep him.

Also the arguments for kenpachi/zeks are compelling. I think gabe is pretty glad that others are voting for these two so I have to ignore what gabe says honestly, for now.
I'm also more curious about whether kenpachi is a mafia than gabriel is. Because kenpachi seems to be more likely mafia than gabriel at this point (im putting gabe down as a quasi helpful townie for now) I will change my vote to kenpachi.
Please excuse my laziness to format the capitals/potential grammar mistakes. I came back from a party just now but my will to change vote is strong. Cool, so you've told us that Kenpachi more likely mafia than Gabriel. What about zeks? You read the analysis. You "took it with a grain of salt."

How do you know it was the mafia that framed Kenpachi? Why are you disappoint? A townie died.

Mafia please kill him or me. Kthx. tbh, I don't see what all the rage is about Gabriel's posting. It's somewhat hard to understand sometimes but it's not as terrible/lacking as some others in the thread, and he's made several good points during the first day.

Feel free to look at what I've said. I've mostly just been looking at what people have been saying and then briefly looked at 'analyses' of what people said if you want to save yourself some time. Start contributing your own thoughts to the thread. kthxbye.
--
I don't feel like explaining anymore~ the names on the list are just people who I've noticed after day 1. Let's watch who the mafia hit because it's always in their best interest to snipe people who are hot on their tails. Also in their best interest to kill off the active members, more so than blues I'd say. For example, I'd rather target a townie Qatol than a blue nobody, just because I think Qatol is more of a threat.
Again, these are just suspicious people. Looking back at that voting list, I think I'd throw deconduo onto my list as well. Haven't looked at his posts thoroughly, but I feel like he just came in, voted, and left.

Previous data from players is useless. Half decent players are able to get away with different playstyles. Im sure TL veterans dont look previous games unless there is a contradictory post from the accused in the active game (refered to the old game).

I wouldn't say that. It might have saved Kenpachi's life had more people taken it into consideration. There are very few players able to completely posting style on a dime, and most of those that can (*cough* ace *cough*) are already known for it.

Previous data is increadbily important to attempt to figure out differences in play. GGQ is inactive this game, and I've vertifying if he actually could play the newbie card. From the few pages I browsed, GGQ is a pretty active player. This is considerable different from what is happening in this thread.

Hey! I hope everyone else had a great weekend.
Ah well, lynching townie on Day 1 is not uncommon, in fact, it's somewhat expected. I'm glad we didn't get a blue though.
I was unsure about Kenpachi going into the lynch (while other people say they knew he was town 100%, well hindsight 20/20 and all that...) partly because as it was apparent he was going to die, his defense was awful and he was chainsaw defending. However, in retrospect, I guess he does do that in all of his games.
I also wasn't very inclined to vote for zeks, although I do find him very suspicious, because Gabriel was the one to really start the lynch on him, and I still don't trust Gabriel.
One thing that really jumped out at me was zeks' pre-goodbye post:
On December 12 2010 12:38 zeks wrote: I think I'm dead ?
Oceanic meapak Hesmyrr infundibulum
Please take a good look at these people especially infun. Votes came off him way too easily and the people who voted for him got mobbed immediately for the dumbest reasons.
Cheers and at least u didnt get a blue
He doesn't mention Gabriel on his "look at these people" list, even though Gabriel was the one to point the gun in zeks' face. Also (a bit of WIFOM here), if zeks had actually counted the votes, he would know he wouldn't be lynched, so he could post this and sort of get away with it, knowing he would still be alive.

Interesting point. It could be attributed with frustration, or to try to take off pressure from Zeks. On the other hand, lots of people were voting kenpachi, so maybe he went with the flow.
I don't agree with your analysis of Brocket though.
