I don't think a FoS is more opportunistic than a vote in this instance, but I think it accomplishes some of the same goals (pressuring the target, pushing the lynch) without the culpability of a vote and is therefore more suspicious.

Oh come on. It was plain silly and unreal.
True, but silly and unreal do not tell me anything about his alignment.

You left out the part where he's jumped back on to Jahudo for the flimsiest of reasons.
My statement was unfair and my only excuse for this is that I was in a bit of a rush when I made that post. To clarify, your case was not pointless, but the bit about him knowing the set-up was. Its inclusion made the whole case seem somewhat contrived, like it was bad icing on an otherwise reasonable cake.
Goat's read of me in #316 demonstrates that he is a skilled player. It can be read as a gambit from either scum or town. I don't know that it indicates his alignment by itself but, coupled with the right card-flip, it would
nearly
confirm him one way or the other.
The accusations against Andy are intriguing to me, as are those against Cass.
