Finally Stefl. I really don't know what to think with Stefl. I've been trusting him mostly because Khan is still alive and his story hasn't had any contradictions that I saw, and he helped us find Yoshiya. However, the main reason I think spurge was lying is that stefl supposedly protected him from manipulation, and unless Khan doesn't actually target who he says he targets and just gets random reads instead, spurge can't be right about not tracking Khan anywhere that night. Further more, I've seen Khan move twice, and stefl himself says Khan moved last night. Which means spurge must by lying right? But what if he wasn't lying? I assumed he was because it was the only way the stories added up, but while it doesn't make sense for a miller to not say he's a miller, it makes even less sense for spurge to lie as town when he's about to be lynched. If stefl lied about his role, spurge could be telling the truth. In fact, there's even a way he could not be a miller. Hear me out.
Yoshiya said he "bussed" spurge with Astro, but that turned out to be a slip that led to us correctly guessing that Yoshiya was actually a redirector before he actually flipped as such. So it seems to me that Yoshiya at least tried to redirect spurge to astro. If Astro didn't move, then there you go, spurge is telling the truth, at least from his perspective as someone who was redirected to track Astro and not Khan. But this has a lot of implications.
If Astro is a princess, he wouldn't have moved, obviously. I don't think Astro had claimed as of Night 2, so scum wouldn't have known that, however. It could be a wild guess to throw off a town read, or if Astro is scum, it could have been very purposeful. Having Astro do nothing that night (or perhaps he couldn't do anything anyway, like a daytalk enabler?) would leave spurge to cast doubt on Khan. Yoshiya gets sacrificed, Stefl's role is believed, then the next night Stefl makes Khan think he's scanning spurge when he's actually scanning Stefl, so spurge gets lynched, but that puts suspicion on Khan, so scum can just sit back while town either lynches their own cop or stops trusting their own cop's scans. One scum sacrifice for two town investigative roles. If this is more or less how it went, then there you have your explanation for spurge's apparent hidden miller role and lying when he was about to be killed. But as Khan said, that would leave scum with seemingly two of the same role, right? Well, not necessarily.
Now Stefl says his role is a combination of a lighting rod that only affects actions against a particular target, and that it also functions as a watcher, and also as a sort of bodyguard. That's pretty crazy. I've believed it all this time because there weren't any glaring contradictions, his voting record was good, and Khan wasn't dead. But there's a much simpler explanation. What if he's not a redirector, or a crazy lightning-rod-watcher-bodyguard, but rather a DEFLECTOR. The difference between a deflector and a redirector is that a redirector picks two targets and the first target has all his night actions redirected to a second target, while a deflector picks two targets and all actions that anyone takes against the first target are deflected away to the second target. Sound familiar? Having another manipulative role like that would mean scum would be less hesitant to sacrifice one of them.
Now I realize that's a lot of speculation. I'm just trying to make sense of things. Hidden miller roles, cops that aren't actually cops, town lying at the hanman's noose, I just want a more logical explanation. Now one way both spurge AND Stefl could be telling the truth is if a redirector targeting Stefl's lightingrod-watcher-bodyguard target caused a paradox and prof solved it by allowing Yoshiya's redirection to go through while also allowing Stefl to still watch spurge. This seems really arbitrary however, so I'm not sure how likely it is. Another possibility is again, that spurge really was crazy enough to lie when he was about to be lynched, and either was a hidden miller, or really that fucking crazy as to not say he was a miller. Given Stefl's great voting record, the riskiness of leaving Khan alive, and lack of any other glaring contradictions, I'm still not 100% here.
