Well just look at the two posts he has made:
Leone wrote on 08/11/16 at 07:42:26:I'm not a fan of how Alaktorn is eager to throw someone under the bus this early on. Also, I don't see him putting a lot of effort into scumhunting. This is how he played in Brett's game, and he flipped maf. (To be fair, I didn't follow the game from late May so idk if this is how he usually acts as town. Will have to review that.) Might be something to keep an eye on; atm he's my strongest maf read.
Until further investigation on my part, [vote]ALAKTORN[/vote]
Out of all the posts before this one (it was post #48) he chooses ALAK as the one who sticks out most to him. The reasons for this vote are based off of previous gameplay. I actually totally disagree with him, because I thought ALAK was a lot mor low-profile in the first day of the game he was maf. Also, he fails to mention any other player.
Then 60 after the previous one he posts this:

I likely misread the first few pages' posts. Will break everything down later on and make a more informed vote then.

This is such a cheap way to do a complete 180° turn. "I likely misread". That's such a maf thing to say. Why would he bother to make a quite informed vote to start the game, only to remove it immediatly when someone calls him out on it? It totally feels like he realized that he was not in sync with the main stream and that he quickly tried to adjust so that he wouldn't stick out that much.
Anyway, I'm really curious to see what Leone has to say for himself when he comes back. I think this is where the pressure should be at this point.
