Tasunke, I don't know why you'd need to have a conversation with the mod about a name claim. You could just make up your own name on your own initiative, like JKaen did.
I have to run.

Tasunke, you know that all of this makes you only look more like a wolf, right? First you have no name then suddenly Bigger tells you that you can have one? And you think that is because you have votes against you? I mean, honestly? If that would be the case then either you have a name you didn't want to tell to begin with and you just asked Bigger if you are allowed to make one up or Bigger is influencing the game. And somehow I doubt that he would do that. Anyhow, all that stuff just gives me more reason to stay on you.
Nonetheless I would like to back novice up on his question to Selrahc. As most probably know by now I am not a fan of people not voting for most of the day period. It just makes it to easy to stay below the radar imo and is all around in my opinion helping the wolves more then the village.
(Disclaimer: I don't mean that anyone has to vote on Day1 in the first post he makes. But by now there is enough stuff posted that even I with next to no time could make up my mind)

Can somebody who actually played this game tell me what talents are (great people?) and what a thinker one is (great scientist?)

Jkaen did eh? Perhaps that is why Bigger decided to give me the offer.
And yes, I almost did that, except that I had no guarantee that it would count as an official name (meaning in the death write up, and potentially in other write ups as well).
So as a power claim I'm a neighbor, and my neighbor thinks I'm a mindworm ... doh! 
Neighbor is Meiz by the way ... a very hairy and toothy and pointed ears Meiz!!! Alas, but I must test the fur samples to see whether they are Honey Badger or actual werewolf.

Yea, I think a Thinker is something that gives research points ... and yes Talents are like specialists (I don't think there are great people in Alpha Centauri, but there are certainly specialists)
A city can have Citizens, Drones, and Talents. Citizens work the land, while Drones and Talents are "in the city" (like Citizen, angry citizen, and specialists).
From what I can tell, Talents are specialists, while drones are a combo of citizen and angry citizen. Having too many drones is a bad, bad thing (from what I've read).

So you think Meiz is a wolf and he thinks you're a mindworm? What does a mindworm do?

Oh and since lots of people don't have a name, there cant be a name seer in this game, so I wouldn't worry about that

Now that's just insulting.
Anyways, ignore the "early" part for a moment. Yes, lynch is in about 15 hours, but things have a way of coming up and I can't guarantee my "logged-on-ness"
So if you can accept that premise, that its not "too early" at least for a moment, then bear with me for a moment.
If I died, then no one would know who my neighbor was.
Now, if I was a werewolf, then as my neighbor, Meiz would have to be Villager.
On the other hand, if I was a villager (which I am), Meiz has a 50% chance of being a werewolf.
This way, he can't claim any other bogus powers, cause neighbor power is what he has.

Well, a mindworm would probably be a type of wolf, dontcha think? Just like how a Devil is a werewolf that can scan roles, or whatever.
Still though, being a mindworm wouldn't necessarily mean that youre a werewolf, it'd just be freakin COOL.
Still, I am not one, and he thinks I am. Therefore, he just thinks that I was lying about my role to him (which is odd, as I'm not sure anyone has any power in "addition" to their Neighbor power ... I mean I'm sure its possible, just not something one would assume). So he threatened for me to stop lying about my role a couple posts after I stopped being cagey and told him my role .. so um yea ...
anyways, due to all the nameless humans out there (including myself, at least initially), I don't think there are any actual mindworms out there (unfortunately).
