Ok, so it would appear that I'm running out of time here. If only I could read faster!
So, I'll let you know my thoughts right now, continue reading and then add to my thoughts as I go.
At the moment, and throughout my reading, I've found Souji to be rather suspicious.

(SPOILER)

I have read the thread and again given it is Day 1 as usual not a lot to go on. But one thing that stands out to me is Teddie's post. He suggests a voting pattern (only vote active players), tries to back this up with a reason (don't allow the mob to easy night kill an inactive player). An inactive trying to steer town Day 1's vote goes to you buddy!

In a couple of days, I want ammo when I want to chase a suspect. People's previous votes will then matter. I don't want to look back and sigh, "Man, there's sure a lot of inactives dead..." That is not much use to me, kuma.

You're clasping at straws my friend, but aren't we all on Day 1! Despite the fact I voted for you I'm almost certain one of the more active players up until now is scum (not naming any names) & experience says when the mafia's "voice" in a game is taken out the others come out of the wood work. Then I'll assess the inactive. But until then Teddie crazy person you're my man

You're clasping at straws my friend, but aren't we all on Day 1! Despite the fact I voted for you I'm almost certain one of the more active players up until now is scum (not naming any names) & experience says when the mafia's "voice" in a game is taken out the others come out of the wood work. Then I'll assess the inactive. But until then Teddie crazy person you're my man

I'm sorry you're not thinking about laying groundwork for the future as well as the present, being mindful of what is to come is important as well, kuma.

Lynching an active means we have a chance of lynching an active mafia member. Scum have to scramble to save themselves or their friends then. There'd be lots of activity then, kuma.

In Mafia we only deal in the present due to the fact we are here one day maybe gone the next but at the same time planning for the future is smart.

You just repeated what I said but changed the way I said it, lol that's not weird at all

Teddie proposes that we vote for actives, as voting inactives won't give us any evidence to use in the future.
Souji thinks this is odd because Teddie himself had been rather inactive before that.
Teddie defends himself saying that it's a good tactic.
Then Souji says that we should focus on taking out the mafia's "voice" to make the others come out of the woodwork.
Which was basically Teddie's theory anyhow... So Teddie adds what Souji said to his own tactic, and then Souji gets up him for repeating what he said.
Seriously guys?

Do I detect a slight over reaction Teddie? Also I don't need a how too explanation of how the game works because I'm not new to this dance But senseless arguing gets us nowhere. I hope you're not mafia because the crazy person on Day 1 rarely is but until I'm 100% sure you're not vote stays on you.

Souji states that mafia aren't usually the crazy ones on day one, yet he decides to vote for the crazy one on day one... To me, it seems like Souji wanted to vote for Teddie, but cover his ass at the same time.

Then for both day one and two, Souji has stated that it's been another day wasted, before the day was up, as if he knew it would turn out so badly...

Looks like the bandwagon has switched to Mitsuo. I hope for the sake of everyone who voted to lynch him he is guilty or you are wasting towns time with a needless lynch.

Yet another wasted lynch guys

Another thing I didn't like about Souji was his "OMG SOMEONE MENTION A COP, THEREFORE THEY WANT THE COP TO APPEAR, AND THEY ARE SCUM!!" tactic, and I hate that move!

(SPOILER)

A living Cop may eventually come out and save the day with great results if you like those odds.

As helpful as the information from a Cop may be Morooka, the last thing we want after losing our Doctor so early would be for somebody to hint that they could be the Cop. With the Cop & Doctor gone we would really be up $h*t creek without a paddle. Unless there is another reason you'd like the Cop to show himself Morooka

I took a break from work and I am appalled again by Souji.

I don't want a cop to come out today. Rise says she's new and wanted to know what we could use to find mafia. The cop would be an example and I agree he's in a tight spot. You like putting words in other's mouths, Souji.

Maybe I can squeeze a lunch post in later too.

You're appalled by me? What for? I gave an explanation for voting for Teddie Day 1 & anything else I've said has been either relevant or me having fun. This is a game dude

What you see as me "putting words in other's mouths" I see as stimulating conversation. The only place more dead then this game at the moment is a morgue lol

I just find it odd you'd bring up the Cop so soon because with the doctor gone protecting the Cop's identity is a town priority in my opinion. The only reasons I could see for you even mentioning the Cop is that either, you're scum & you're trying to draw him out or you are the Cop & you think by mentioning the role any suspicion on the part of the mafia as to whether or not you're the Cop would be gone. Am I right or wrong my friend?

I also dislike this way that he and Kanji softly attacked each other day one, and then sort of buddied up after that. It feels like those two are trying to lead the town, and lead us bad places. In my experience, those are the people who are scum. I've got a hunch that if Souji flips scum, then I'd say Kanji would too.

To me, Souji has been making so many comments which just irk me, I can't not vote for him.

##VOTE:[M] Souji

Time to continue my reading!

[[M] Mom – Host]

Day 3 is coming to an end very shortly.

Votecount as it is.

[M] Souji (4) - [M] Naoto, [M] Kashiwagi, [M] Kanji, [M] Daidara
[M] Hanako (3) - [M] Namatame, [M] Mitsuo, [M] Nanako
[M] Kanji (1) - [M] Daidara
[M] Rise (1) - [M] Souji
[M] Naoto (1) - [M] Adachi
[M] Daidara (0) -
[M] Kou - (0) -
[M] Mitsuo (0) -

[[M] Al - Biker Dad]

So we're low on time, and it would appear I've broken the tie here, but I have a really good feeling that Souji is scum.
Though I will take my vote off if people want to discuss for a little longer.
Actually, Igor, what would happen if I removed my vote?

[[M] Al - Biker Dad]

I'd put it back on, as I get the feeling that from your post in discussion that Hanako really is an inactive, but more discussion is all the better.

[[M] Elize]

I feel Hanako is just inactive since she's made maybe two post and all of them on day 1. Honestly, their is nothing really separating her from Kou who has the same track record, so I don't really see the reason to go after her specifically.

[[M] Elize]

At this moment of course...

[[M] Mom – Host]

If you removed your vote, we will have a tie, and thus I would allow more time for further discussion and possibly have someone caste the final vote.

[[M] Athena]

Alright I have to disappear again shortly, but of the two on the chopping block, I find Hanako most suspicious.

[[M] Al - Biker Dad]

Oh, uhhh, I forgot to...
