Let's look at faust's stances day 1:
first, his reads list pre-claim:
I feel like I need to organize my reads. They are al over the place. Let's see. Town to scum:
JReggie
Seprix
fontisian
cron
teamlyle
Jan
Chairs
iguanaiguana
silverspawn
RoadRunner7671
Cellovix
Haddock
Jan as the lightest town read.
Then the claim comes (not yet formulated). Whom he votes for-- no not Jan, it's RR.
Also, RR, I have to wonder: How did you perform a N0 action if you only read your role PM at the start of D1?
Vote: RR
I have no idea whatsoever what he's doing, but it is certain that he's lying and rolefishing.
Roadrunner, I will not vote somewhere else unless you full claim. Not saying that I will if you do, but at least there is a nonzero chance.
If this backfires... Well, we'll find out then, but I'm pretty sure RR is just an IC now?
I'm pretty sure he's not. Weren't you willing to vote for him earlier? What the heck changed?
So far, I also don't get the mechanical reason for RR to be able to perform an action N0. That is very unusual here, and I don't see a compelling case for a Rolecop to have that ability.
He did his best to throw suspicion at RR.
But that is not even the point. This is worse:
I cannot help but feel that Seprix's treatment of the RR situation is pretty scummy.
Not scummy. Just wrong.
Obviously lynching conf!town is bad.
But in the hypothetical situation where we can't decide which of RR and Jan to lynch (and I really think we have to lynch one of them today), Reggie's reasoning is as good as any.
PPE 3.
It is scummy. He changes his view as soon as he learns that RR saw that Jan has a redirective power. If Seprix is Jan's partner, he knows this information to be correct, so he knows RR isn't just shitting around. Form then on, he treats RR as conf!town.
You know what? Vote: Seprix
After RR claimed (according to faust, nothing had to be added), he decided to push Seprix instead. Obviously, it's in his interest now to pretend now as if pushing Seprix was not scummy.
He was the alternative to a scum wagon. Of course being on that is scummy.
In my defense, I did not know the information RR revealed would be so strikingly great for town.
And how did this influence your read on RR, exactly?
It would have been much better for RR to not say anything at all of course. And (I think it was your argument?) was somewhat convincing, but we have a chance to confirm once and for all whether RR's claim is legitimate or not. I think this is so important for D1.
Well, lynching RR also confirms whether his claim is legitimate. And you did not argue that we should lynch Jan because it provides information about RR, you argued that we should lynch him because RR is "basically an IC".
At #637 he decides to back off:
Lynching RR because you don't believe him sucks. Lynch Jan first. Then lynch me if I lied.
It's not usually better this way around, or every scum ever could simply take a townie with them before they are lynched.
That said, I don't think I want to lynch you today.
Oh, I had not even seen this:
Oh and faust, you do have something of a point, but voting Seprix is still insane. Your entire argument there rests on Jan being scum anyway...
Well one of RR and Jan is scum for sure.
Scummy because it is not true. It was absolutely not obvious that one of them was scum. It could have easily been Jan with a town redirection role (again, rare, not that rare) and RR with a genuinely "guilty" result.
But as scum you'd have known that one of them is scum.
I guess we're lynching Seprix then.
nice try.
And here begins his flip:
I can manipulate myself, but it doesn't protect against factional abilities.
Alright. That seems kinda arbitrary. Oh well.
I'd vote Jan now, but let's hear from him first.
If that is not late and controlled, then what is?
I may be OMGUSing a bit, but this just reads super-fake.
Unrelated but a red flag. It probably sounded genuine, since it was genuine. scum is more likely to say that it didn't.
and this is L-1:
Thus, it is time to Vote: Jan.
I would also point out that his reaction didn't feel genuine and that I cannot begin to understand why he, as town, would choose to reveal his Future Sight ability.
So yes. You are very much a suspect. Probably the prime suspect.
