It looks like we're lynching you sooner or later anyway.
I haven't checked, but Tim's first three days were wastly different from both his town and franklin. I think the main difference between his normal style and franklin was amount of fluff in his posts. Tim's normal mode is paranoia and coming up with crazy theories. Also, he usually tunnels. There's a better post on that in mafia quicktopic we had I believe.
Here he managed to avoid multi day tunnels, that's something new and It's definitely an improvement to be able to reevaluate situation. I find it a good sign. The one thing I dislike is how he needs to dominate the thread. He did that in Franklin too. Tim's spent a lot of posts on literacy and while it might be a way to crack the game open, it's more likely not.
TS - in Franklin he often asked questions and he got called out for it. He posted smileys a lot, coasted and got townread a lot. Here he started little more active and got lot of early positive buzz, then heat from Visor. He stopped doing it and focused on self-defense and survival. He also posted way more opinions due to the pressure. Many of them aren't developed and he sheeps his townreads, but I'm not opposed to that.
So, I think that both of them play differently and that they have reasons for it, if mafia. I had Tim in my top towns for the majority of game and I still find it more likely that he's town. TS was forced to change his playstyle and he struggled a lot with it.
