His first post is saucy and seems like he's hinting as to what DK character he is. I don't get why anyone would do it (unless it's a joke), but since it's one of the few of the first posts of the thread I'm going to assume it was a joke post (like most of the opening posts of Day 1 are)
Yeah, I was just joking. I didn't think people would keep bringing that post to the Mafia's attention though.

these people need to speak up so we can get a read on them
i'll vote for the first on the list to get them started
Vote: Curly
His 2nd post and he is pointing out everyone who hasn't posted, seems a little odd to do that when you only have 2 posts yourself? I understand it's early in Day 1 though, and he's trying to get people to post so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt here.
I could've made a list of people under 5 posts or something, but that would've been over half the players. I was pretty much just trying to make sure everyone had checked their PM and knew the game had started

generally clues from day 1 don't seem to make sense until people have started to be eliminated (either town powers or mafia).
if we want to reach a majority vote on day 1, we should try to make it occur as close to the deadline as we can (but have an idea who we want this person to be ahead of time, so we don't do anything foolish) so we can take advantage of all the posting time we're allotted.
no one should be claiming roles this early, because that will only help the mafia.
Here he just states the obvious. People know guessing who other people are is helping the mafia, people know we have the whole of Day 1 to collect info, people know we should use the day to its full potential, people know claiming roles on Day 1 isn't benefitial ... so it just seems like a long post that looks informative but when you look at it closely it's just stating obvious points with no insightful information.
Just because one person thinks things are obvious, doesn't mean everyone does. Why do we type anything at all if everything is obvious?

If no majority is reached, the player with the most votes at the end of the day will be lynched. In the case of a tie, the day will continue until the tie is broken, with only votes and unvotes on the tied players counting. You may also vote for "No Lynch". You cannot vote for yourself.
Nights will last 24 hours. All night actions must be sent to me by message board PM by then."
where does koops say that day 1 is only 24 hours rather than 48?
Quite different from the last post, here you're just confirming that the day isn't about to end. It adds to your post count but it isn't really a contribution. Why do you care at this stage how long the day is? You haven't actually voiced ANY suspicions yet, you haven't voiced your opinion, you haven't questioned anyone, so why would you make a post which would be concerning to how long before the day ends?
I didn't see any red flags in day 1. I was hoping the 2nd half of the day would be less fluff, but the day was 24 hours short. I didn't want to accuse a stupid townie, like Ronald.

If anything, it would help us view voting trends. Is that site still up from previous mafia games that showed current vote totals and total posts by day?
Continuing on from the previous post and asking a question to see the vote count. You want to see the vote trends. You voted someone who hasn't posted. You haven't accused anyone. You haven't voiced a thing other than the obvious.
Voting trends help link people together.
Jack wrote on 04/12/10 at 17:57:28:Dwight wrote on 04/12/10 at 14:30:47:I've been reading through Marks posts, but I don't see any reason why the mafia picked him. He voted for both Lucas and Bob, but had no vote registered at the end of the day. Lets look closer at Bob and Lucas to see if there are any similarities. It would be a slipup by mafia is either were one.
Bob:
Voted Ronald
His mafia suspects are ronald, matthew, george, larry, and jack.
His town suspects are moe, harry, and fred
He's posted quite a bit and haven't seen any big red flags from him.
Lucas:
Voted for Curly and John (both for no reason)
Says George is definitely town, so hey have that in common.
Not many posts and none really informative.
George:
Probably most posts with 65.
Voted Harry, Mark, Florry, Ronald, Stan, Justin, and Tommy.
Claims Bob is mafia and thinks justin, tommy, fred, stan and harry are good targets.
I think anyone who is posting a lot should stay longer, because they have more chances to slip up. Quiet people probably won't post later either, so we don't lose much.
I'll place my vote the same as yesterday and hope he votes.
Vote: Curly
You actually have a good opening of a post here, trying and figure out why Mark died, which I approve of. You go into detail and give statistics for those who Mark voted. You then randomly throw George into the equation (unless there is a reason, apologies if there is but I can't see it) then you exclaim active people should be kept alive and people who aren't posting should go, and place a vote on someone who hasn't spoke.
I can't help but feel you're just copying trends of other people (e.g voting for Curly is what a handful of other people have done) and it seems that looking into Marks death was pointless because you ended up not using it and instead voting for someone who hasn't posted. Why would you bring up those stats if you clearly had no intention on persuing any of them?
I brought up George, because he was a common link of Bob and Lucas. I had thought I saw Bob and Lucas said he was definite town, but I had looked at it wrong. I only brought them up as a link to the lynched man of day 1 to see if there were any connections.

Dwight wrote on 04/12/10 at 16:44:35:Regarding Tommy that is
Some percentage as to what the chances are that someone can't be scanned (What is this I don't even) and then just stating that the scanner shouldn't claim ... again I can't help but feel you're just stating what appears to be obvious. You mention Tommy in the post but don't even mention whether you think he is suspicious or not?
None of your posts have actually pointed anyone out, and you haven't listed any suspicions of anyone. I would see no reason as to why anyone would do this, not mentioning even one person they found to be a little fishy, other than inactive posters. I have no problem with you finding people with 0 posts to be suspect (I'm suspect of them too, there is absolutely no reason as to why they shouldn't be posting) but you haven't voiced any opinion whatsoever on any of the active posters and this bugs me.
So I will be the first to ask you this Dwight.
Who do you think is suspicious at the moment? Who do you think is mafia and why? If you had to vote for someone to be lynched, who would it be?
Edit : Grammar Fails
Assuming there is a mafia role that appears townie in scans (like most other mafia games), thats 1 player out of 21 (thought it was 23 before, so I said 4%), so it's actually 5%.
As for a potential mafia list, John seems to be the most suspicious to me. Over half of his posts don't even relate to the game of mafia. They don't have to be focusing on certain players, but when all your posts are short (less than 10 words), and range from dissing Miley Cyrus to basically just saying how everyone's name is girlie compared to his own. He just seems more trollish than anything.
Vote: John
