But you're not even proving you're smarter than uncertainty. That's how you play the game normally.
If you commit to "everybody wins" you cease to give a fuck about your wincon because you're working with the players you're meant to be playing against, you cease to give a fuck about everyone's alignment because, hey everybody is going to win so what the fuck does it matter?
My issue is thus: webadict gave us some rules to play the game (alignment, wincon, and role) we play the game as it's meant to be played. Then, partway through, some of us decide that those rules don't matter, they're going to try to hack the game and break it instead, because somehow that's more fun than doing what they literally signed up for.
I don't play mafia to prove I'm smarter than other people. I play the game because, funnily enough, I want to play the game.

I read through 20 of Tir's 53 posts, I'm getting town feels from them, but it's less than half of her stuff. More later.
