Strongandbig, get off your high horse. Nobody's breaking the rules by not following the alphabet game. Basically, you can post once an hour or you have to post using the alphabet game. The minigames don't have rewards, they're just played for points that don't matter in this game, and create a posting restriction. Choosing to be legible and have larger, non-alphabetical posts that have hour gaps in between them is an entirely viable choice. In fact, given that most people in this game have made ~10 posts over the course of 30 hours, I daresay it's completely viable to follow the 1-hour rule instead of the alphabet rule. The chief rule is playing to your wincon, and nothing else matters.
Since you're around, what do you think of Adam? You made a pretty useless comment about his self-imposed time out earlier, and asked me about his posting after I voted, to which I have responded. I'd like to hear your comments.
For anyone who thinks the Adam case is just meta, let me stir this in for you: we're 30+ hours in, and Adam has only taken one real position-- his vote on mementoss (link). He's backtracked everything else, and pulled away from any other statements he's made. And his case on mementoss? Pretty meek. Pretty lame. Especially the takedown of Mementoss' dj argument, which I found entirely convincing.
For gonzaw, you spend about 6-7 sentences flip-flopping about on your read on me. If you have something to say, say it-- I'll gladly respond. If you find me too diplomatic, that's fine, but don't end it with "meh". Not staking out a position isn't good for letting us know what you think, and it's not good for letting me respond in an adequate fashion. That being said, I like your pressure on Adam, and I find it telling that he doesn't post a case or push anyone until A) I have called him out for playing his scum meta and B) you also call him out for not making any cases 24+ hours into the game. And by "telling" I mean "Adam is scum"

Xcellent analysis, S&B. You did a good amount of work, and I can respect that. Zero days, a few hours left to the deadline approaching, so I'm willing to vote for BKEXE-- his placing a vote on obvious townie Hope1 with no reasoning makes no sense to me.
As far as Adam's backtracking, it's worth noting that changing your mind is not a scumtell, but arbitrarily shifting your views with no reasoning is. Basically anything that obfuscates town understanding what's going on is bad. Crossfire is guilty of this, but in my view his transgressions are not willfull, but accidental. Don't think he's off the hook-- I expect him to get more on the ball as the game continues.

When it was posted on twitter it was 3:20 AM PST - 31 Oct 12:
Xcellent catch, Hopeless1, not sure what to make of BKEXE, since 3:20 AM PST is 1900 KST, or forum time. You know, it's not at all lined up with what BKEXE claims. Zero credibility on this, BKEXE. Are you going to explain yourself?

Entirely your fault, BKEXE. Friendly word of advice is to post in the voting thread when you vote, as you have now done. Getting down to brass tacks: you need to vote for someone other than Hopeless1. He's not scummy and you're wasting your vote and hurting town. It's simple: vote for scum instead. Just at least make a case against someone else, cause Hopeless is NOT getting lynched today.

I see we are generally unconvinced by my Adam case. Just fine, we will be able to lynch him tomorrow, so I'm willing to lynch BKEXE or Gonzaw if everyone's sticking to the "we want to give Adam a second chance for no apparent reason, even though it doesn't make sense and he's playing to his scum meta" stance. Keirathi's addition to the Gonzaw case is highly convincing. Left with this choice, I hereby ##vote: Gonzaw, but will gladly vote BKEXE if Gonzaw is not a realistic lynch today.

Totally hilarious that Chez' defense for his inactivity is that since he doesn't have a defense, he must be town. Under normal circumstances scum would give a good excuse, so his lack of an excuse... exonerates him?

When it's a "ninja" that means the following player continues on as if it was correct with no delay, right?

Know I am here, Mementoss! Lo, I consolidate onto ##vote: BKEXE. My vote will prevent your horrible mislynch. No way is Mementoss Lynch a good idea today.

Really, gonzaw? So you "accidentally" made a mis-lettering with less than an hour to go? Scum. Totally scum. Unbelievable that nobody wants to lynch you.

Very well, to summarize at least since you can't response, there's a bad mementoss wagon, and you need to either self-vote or vote for BKEXE.

Xcellent play-- hen it comes down to it, you have a very very convenient timing to screw up your post and not be able to talk. You should vote for BKEXE.

Zero is the amount of willingness I have to interact with you, but that is a reasonable question. Actually it's largely because the case against him is somewhat nonexistent and although his play hasn't been great, his voting isn't wholly unjustified. Back when he had his ill-advised post, I spoke to him about it, and that's all I have on him for now. Can't you see this kind of last-minute wagon is exactly what scum wants? Don't tell me you don't see that-- or perhaps you are scum and want this.

just for a definitive re-question on ninja-ing, I can still post, right?

Even ninjas that happen at the same time, such that you refresh, see no posts, hit submit, and his post is above yours?
