Well, they're not ALL available options (let's leave out OMGUS from the list this time, OK?), but they're what I can remember.
1) Code name and "an extra message if you want to". Helpful in finding scum on Day 2, but will not bring Day 1 forward, as I doubt we would want to decode on Day 1. (Do we?)
2) List 3-5 characters, one of which has to be you. Beet suggested this last game, I was against it then, as I remembered what happened to me the last time we did this.
3) Name a person who you would like to Lynch, and why. Not helpful as of yet, as we have not seen any behavior that may be analyzed.
4) Same goes for randomly assigning everybody another person, and having to build a case on it. Too little information as yet.
5) The questions mentioned above. I take it, that it's a variant on what we did in my first game? We had to answer three questions. If I remember correctly, they were basic stuff like "I wear green clothing". (Or am I remembering incorrectly? Anyone?)
6) Describe yourself a little bit. This may help identify the "flash of blond hair" or "dropped glasses" type clue that may come up after Night Actions. I think we must have some specific questions then, so it basically come back to #5. Or, if we don't have questions, the sheer amount of information given will (may) be a clue in itself.
Personally, I think we can give option #5 a chance. Everybody gets to ask one question, to be posted in a different thread. Once we have all questions: everybody answers them. We do need some pre-specified rules, like "No direct questions about Night Actions", can we do open ended questions or do we need a yes/no list, and what do we do if somebody does not want to answer (because pro-Townies can have legitimate reasons not to answer some questions)?
Also an interesting option: everybody gets to ask one yes/no question and specifies who has to answer it (for example starting in alphabetical order? - that would be ? Age?). This person answers yes/no, and asks another person the next question. This may lead to an interesting round-robin. We may catch somebody in a lie, or use the info Tomorrow?
I'm also willing to go with #2 again as I'm a bit more familiar with this universe than I was with the WWE wrestling association... The sheer probability of a too-much-out-of-line character for pro-Towners is a little smaller here.
Any other options?
Oh and my username is what it is because I couldn't think of a better username...I'm not trying to be obnoxious.
