Thinking it through, I'm standing with my vote for Starseed. Even if he is town, his reveal will give the town the most information without the risk of forcing another major reveal today.
Right now keeping starseed around would almost force to have the cop investigate him over the next couple days. There were powers in the first game that allowed a mafia member to scan as town and townies to scan as mafia. It's less likely to be used to our disadvantage on random targets, but if we're putting starseed on a short list for the cop they can use it to their advantage. A more random target from the cop would leave less room for the information to be 'tainted.'
Right now the absolute worst thing would be starseed to scan as mafia, the cop reveal himself saying so, we lynch starseed, he flips town and that night the mafia kill the cop.
So I don't like the idea of keeping starseed around and having the cop have to confirm what he is when the mafia already knows our plan. If we want to find out what starseed really is, to find out whether all the information he has said is true, I think there's only one option and that's a card flip.
I do think starseed has brought up some good points, like on formulate playing a similar game to him in the first game, so I think we can go back and look over his posts without doubts that he was just trying to cause a ####storm with the MOT but was actually trying to help us.
