Battousai replaces in and his second post puts Dark wingstalker at L-1. He states that, at that point, DWS, geraintm and I are his top three suspects—DWS for putting Wumbo at L-1 out of not paying attention, geraintm for misinterpreting posts, and me for telling Wumbo to claim or die (which I defend as my play style). I now think that this post saying that he doesn't want to lynch chenhsi despite a counterclaim is a breadcrumb to his also being a cop. He then goes off saying that neither maxwellhouse nor Dark wingstalker should be lynched Day 2 so maxwellhouse's sanity (if he is the cop) can be confirmed. After FoS'ing Inspector Godot for lining up lynches and then voting him for banking on maxwellhouse being a second cop, he decides to vote Dark wingstalker anyway, and DWS turns out to be the godfather. Battousai then votes Inspector Godot given the Dark wingstalker wagon, and he ends up also being Mafia. Votes me given my claim and his results so far since he hadn't investigated me yet. Mistakes my tracker claim for a reporter claim and by that reasoning questions why I targeted maxwellhouse knowing that he would leave his house—actually, since I am the tracker, exactly why I targeted him in the first place. Decides to leave me alive given that both claimed power roles should stick around and then votes Cass for his reasons for investigating her Day 2, then votes no lynch to prevent today from being lynch or lose. Investigates me and gets an innocent result.
This is the first mention of a scum roleblocker that we have—Cass claims Dark wingstalker hinted at it. (I got roleblocked twice, so the only way they can't is if I'm scum and lied about the blocks.)
Questions both my self-vote and Battousai's assuredness that I'm scum. I'm debating if this is fence sitting, but I am aware that neither action makes sense to her. I think she is the first person to guess, however, that Battousai is either naïve or scum (said insane, but corrected herself). We now know that if she is incorrect, then Wumbo is scum.
Votes Wumbo based on logic, which is starting to give me second thoughts.
My LoS runs Cass, Wumbo, Battousai, and geraintm in order starting with who I think is the scummiest. I think Cass is the best play today, largely because of her later Day 1 actions, but Wumbo's another possibility depending on what comes up.
FoS: Wumbo
