The thing is, we don't even know who's alive, who has ressurected, etc.
And you shouldn't, aside from those who have already posted to the thread. They are choice targets for the undead. If they turn into thread zombies or pretend to be dead, I'll give you a heads up.

Fine, then, TBF. If you say we shouldn't know who's a valid target to vote for other than the people who have posted in-thread in such a way as to confirm they're alive, then you would appear to be one of the few people we can actually lynch. (Note: I am not really suggesting we lynch the confirmed High Cleric, amusing as that might be.)
More seriously, no-one knows who can be voted for, so no-one is voting, so no-one knows who still has a vote, and is thus alive. Etc. So a player list is no more helpful to the wolves than not having one.

Bold is confirmed revived. Slashed through is died and not yet voted. Note that that leaves 12 people of whom there should have been no doubt as to whether they are alive.

TBFProgrammer sent out the call for villagers…
"Come on! Stake somebody!"
A few came… but no one really wanted to be too hasty… go around staking and burning people and suddenly you were staked and burned yourself… or wound up as a zombie. Not that being a zombie was entirely bad. No one would admit to it, but some thought it might be better to be a zombie than be.. well.. dead. At least you still had a corporeal form even if you did mindlessly roam the streets at night looking for brains.
TBFProgrammer thumped a well-worn book, the contents of which were not wholly understood by most of the village, "I say to the residents of Resurrection, 'Show your faces! Let no one hide!' If anyone is afraid to come forward, he may well wish he had when he's dead!"
A few more residents cautiously poked their heads forward, but no one moved with stake and torch.
"Just how do we know who is alive and who is dead?"
"Aye, that's the rub."
"To stake or not to stake?"
"That is the question."
TBFProgrammer was unfazed, "You needn't know whether your neighbor is alive or dead, but if he doesn't get up on his roof and yell a 'hi', then ask yourself, 'is he a neighbor worth having?'"
The crowd pondered his words as the sun began to set...
They were still debating his words when TBFProgrammer let out a gasp and looked down at his chest where the bloody tip of a pointy wooden stake emerged. A fae-like girl grasped the other end. "I'm not really suggesting we lynch the High-Cleric," Vsal Orianni joked. Then she set TBF on fire.
Spoiler
TBFProgrammer was slain. He was staked and burned.
Wait, what. I come back just to find the high priest dying to a joke vote by C'nor. Shame on you. Dominic is asha.....no wait, he won't be.
"Good going, Joves! I sense much talent in you! Would you care to join me in a game of fishing? We sit on the ledge -just right over there!-, and we take turns trying to fish the teeth out of zombies. It's a good way to make money too, off false teeth sales..."
...Well. That was unexpected. Doesn't it normally take at least two votes to kill someone?

The moans of the unliving could be heard across the width and breadth of Resurrection that night. Many residents were awakened by the volume of their noises. When residents emerge the next day, they can see the wreckage caused by waves and waves of undead during the night. Fences have been trampled. Houses have been broken into. Corpses litter the streets. The Nightly Chronicle arrived during daylight hours and consisted of a short notice:

Eventually, the remaining residents were able to sort through the carnage and discovered that…
Spoiler
Count Dingdong, Tom the Mime, and Robert Blackletter were slain. Their bodies were torn limb from limb and gnawed on.
Day 6 Begins Now
and ends in about 48 hours
edit: To Answer C'nor's question, only one vote is needed in Zombie Wars to stake and burn, but Zombie Wars is certainly not normal. See the rules on Basic Game Play in the opening post of this thread.
OH MY GOD!
I just realised that I'm alive again! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
Oh.
I just made myself a target, didn't I.
D_Lord as a distraction!
Ooh, an fun thing is:
I'm either a regular villager, and therefore useless, or a wraith as an Arch-Lich's target.
P.S:
Spoiler
I suggest doubting the Arch-lich thing.

In the besieged village of Resurrection, the Zombie War raged. Some could not remember what season is was any more. Would the war of living vs. undead ever end?
One such one was otakuryoga. As otakuryoga cycled about town with uncertainty, when Eternis stumbled out in front of him screaming excitedly. otakuryoga nearly crashed, but recovered just in time, "Whats going on?"
"It was D_Lord," Eternis cried. "I'm not an Arch-Lich... or a wraith. I'm alive!!!"
otakuryoga turned towards D_Lord. It was time to settle this chaos... otakuryoga pulled out a stake - a complimentary stake*. Then he realized that this would never do and tossed it aside. He located a nearby fence pole that had been splintered during the zombie attacks of last night and set one end on his handlebars like a lance. This was a stake.
kill Eternis no, must resist kill Gray Mage? yes, he is unkilled is he?
With so many of us walking around, otakuryoga had difficulty finding his target.
A ghostly form appeared not far away, "cape, scythe, and ... paaalllooor..."
otakuryoga steadied himself, "It should be Summer." He begin to peddle towards the figure when a fish hook dropped out of the sky and lodged in a nearby corpse! otakuryoga hit the line and was thrown from his bike. Somehow in the tumble he ended up landing on a long piece of sharpened wood... A good amount of cash and coin tumbled out of his pockets.
Later that day, someone dragged his body to the pyre where the other bodies were being burned.
Spoiler
otakuryoga was slain. He was staked and burned.
Mod Note: You guys do realize that Thread Zombies cannot win the game ...
Well, I don't know about anyone else but, I have no idea what I should be doing and felt it was better not to potentially screw myself up by voting randomly.

As night fell the groans of the undead rose. Marauding bands of undead roamed the village destroying random property, chasing cats, and seeking out living flesh to devour. Those still alive huddled within their darkened homes waiting for night to pass. When morning rose again and the groans of the undead subsided, the body of TigerFang was found torn to pieces and munched.
Spoiler
TigerFang was slain. He was munched and ripped to pieces.
"Oh my word, I'm still alive?" Eternis said as he awoke.
"Fantastic! Now, let's start the day off with a fun little lynch mob..."

Mkay, folks, we'll never get anywhere sitting around and becoming thread zombies. People are dying left and right, likely because of said zombies.
Let's look at what we know: The High Cleric is dead, slain by C'Nor. C'Nor was some sort of town at the time. He may not be any more, but for now, we'll say he's town. D_Lord was town yesterday, he may not be now, but he's also somewhat safe. Ramsus (as well as C'Nor) were confirmed by the High Cleric on the day of his death. May not be safe now, but that's what we have to work with.
D_Lord was dead at the time of the list posting, but has since been revived. Eternis seems to be in the same boat.
Now, a quick look reveals that Grue Bait and Grimmace haven't posted in a while. They're likely thread zombies. There may be others, but I'm on my way to class, so I don't have much time.

Day arrived and the residents went to work or repairing the damage from last night. They were so consumed with their work that no one bothered with stakes and torches.
It was in the hour before dawn that Vesth sat upon his roof flicking his fishing pole and hooking for zombie teeth or money, or whatever else might come out of the darkness enshrouded streets of Resurrection.
"It's all in the wrist and of course good equipment helps. This pole here is made from bamboo and I have the best braided horsehair in stock."
They sat quietly as the night waned and then both Vesth and C'nor snagged one. It was a brutal fight as the pole hemmed and hawed, but finally, they brought it in: genuine zombie teeth. The only problem was they got the rest of the zombie that came with it. When the sun finally made it up, Vesth and C'nor had been ripped to shreds and gnawed to the bone.
Spoiler
Vesth and C'nor were slain. They were ripped apart and gnawed.
The Grimmace, to put a place holder on a thread zombie, otherwise info is nonexistent.

Because I went to sleep before TBF posted the role list, and so I didn't have time to remove my joke vote before the day ended.

The residents of Resurrection showed signs of awakening from their lethargy. The Cemetary had grown large with graves, but the few surviving residents gathered to discuss just what should happen next. Some in Resurrection had kept detailed records of major known events. But despite the data many residents just had no idea what to do. The problem was people couldn't tell who was living (versus who was actually undead) and who was dead (versus who was actually living). It seemed that things really had decayed to the point of Zombie Armageddon. Who would the zombies get next when night fell? How many would the zombies get when night fell? This made everyone nervous, living or undead, because the zombies of Resurrection weren't docile like the zombies of myth. In Resurrection, they tended to be a chaotic unpredictable mass, lurching about with careless abandon and mayhem.
Despite the fact, that everything seemed to be falling into the Abyss, some intrepid residents made an effort to step forward. They stammered and stuttered, a natural reaction considering that Resurrection had a history of punishing the vocal, and made an effort to point at someone who might be undead or living. The Grimmace hadn't been seen at social events as far back as anyone could remember and seemed a prime candidate of mischief, but then again so did us. For we were often up to mischief ourselves. But the debate did not last long… it soon devolved into remorse over past deeds. Remorse was a powerful emotion that often brought ghosts back to haunt the living. When that happened, it was usually best to toast to them and light a candle for the coming night. A night that was coming all too soon…
Spoiler
No one, no way, and no how was slain. Not with torch, not with stake*.
@Cnor: Yeah, I don't care. Fact is, he's dead. And we now need EVERY CLERIC WE CAN.
REVIVE EVERYONE.
