I'm going to voice my concerns regarding a Trundle - It's day one and I have very little to work with but I feel like there's a couple of things I want to put forward nonetheless:
In my opinion, this fine Gopher Gentleman's meta seems to be to always makes more of an effort on day 1 when he's scum, to really make sure that people notice that he's 'going to be trying very hard this game'. When he's town, however, he's normally worried about getting killed if he speaks too much and is therefore far less aggressive.
In this particular game he was one of the very first to really call someone out, with this post:
At this stage it seems almost like a reaction test, because he's saying it an assertive and confident way despite how little anyone's even been posting. People quickly people start asking him questions as for WHY he would think Jacob is scum, and he goes through some rather decent effort with explaining himself:
Personally, I felt that his points could be valid at this stage. However, since then he's been tunneling on Jacob with a certainty that once again seems very uncharacteristic of Day 1 Trundle - Many times he expresses that's he's "more or less sure" that Jacob is scum. That's the most worrying part for me, because although there's definitely a chance he's correct, day 1 reads are normally inaccurate at best and being so focused on a single person at this stage isn't much like town-Trundle at all. If Trundle is Mafia however, it would make sense, since he said that Jacob might also be blue pretty early on:
From a scummy viewpoint, he might feel that it's worth being fairly aggressive in planting suspicion onto Jacob if he thinks there's a large chance we might mislynch a power role.
Anyways, I do not think that this is enough to go on to push for a Trundle lynch on day 1 - But I am curious if other players who have played previous games with Trundle also feel similar regarding his meta being off this game, if he's actually town.
Some other quick notes:
Ayaya and Alexi are both clearly trying to seem very pro-Town so far. Either that's because they are in fact innocent, or it's because they strongly want to be perceived that way. Overall I think it's good to have a lot of information and reads put forward by a player as it tells a lot if/once they die and their role is revealed - But if either Ayaya or Alexi would be scum I can almost guarantee that they've hidden a Mafia teammate or two in their "case posts".

Also, when exactly does the day end? How many hours do we have to vote? I'd really like a timer.
