Look, the scum narrative for Joseph/Faust is super clear. There have been shit claims (Joseph #1, the backpedal, admitting he targeted XP who died and was the key to our plan, Faust claiming to directly save him); they have been tied together for self-preservation (faust's non-stop, non-sensical defense of Joseph, faust's quick hammer of town, faust claiming a result to save Joseph after he's caught out -- which is why Faust wanted to go last, btw).
The scum narrative for me? You have to think I'm the biggest asshole in the world...fake fight, fake quitting, someone got Arch to fake seek a replacement, fake a result....all for what? It's pretty early to be suiciding.
And to argue it's mylo? No one, definitely not me, thought that at all. Faust, as scum, would see it, I guess. Sounds like a signal to his unknown scum partner.
(I will note on the record that you are insulting Archetype's integrity to think he'd help a scum player's ploy by faking a substitution search, and I am personally insulted on his behalf as a regular mod on f.ds and a mod/friend of him specifically.)
