The only person whose actions have made me go wtf on more than one occasion is GGG.
1) He kicks off the name reveal, which can only serve one purpose, to identify abilities. Sure they are somewhat random, but does it gives the mafia a little to go on as far as picking targets. He even tries to reassure us that the characters and abilities have nothing to do with alignment, but doesn't point out that the flavour of the ability has everything to do with the character. The mafia has the ability to compare abilities with each other and have likely figured this out for sure.
2) Choosing squigggs because he hadn't revealed his character yet wasn't a huge thing by itself, but if mafia can pick someone 'almost at random' that isnt one of them, it seems like it might be a valid plan.
3) This detailed post on mafia behaviour was just off.
I have read it a few times and can't really figure out what he is saying or what basis he is using for his logic. Again, by itself doesn't do much, but it did make me question what he was trying to do with the post.
4) He thought I was suspicious! Actually this doesn't really mean much of anything at this point. I think GGG is more suspicious than everyone else, but when you have nothing to go on, you can really start to grasp at the minor things.
Vote: GGG

I must be terrible at explaining myself about the voting pattern or way off because it seems everyone has missed what I was saying.
3) Basically I am trying to decide which voting position causes the least suspicion. If you vote first you create a clear accusation that is traced back to you. Once someone gets 6 or more votes on every one on after looks to be just following along. Mafia members don't want to be seen as initatiators of actions or as followers. So where do you vote if you are mafia. My position is you try to get in early but not too early so looking at the 3/4 and maybe 5 spots of the first vote should net us a mafia member.
1) name reveal. There is no connection, what part of random number generator don't people understand. I think Mazrim wrote that it was easy to fit flavour in afterwards. You just take an attribute of the character and shoehorn in the role. Read Mazrims first post it makes this pretty clear.
Anyone trying to guess abilities based on attributes needs to stop now. It's not there yet people seem to keep suggesting it. This is going to be very bad for the town if it continues.
2) agreed, almost random voting will allow a mafia person to pick an innocent guy, this is true regardless of the method the first vote is cast as any type of random selection is subject to rigging.
4) I never know how to take the revenge type vote although yours doesn't really fall in the category as you do present some logic although flawed along with it
