This could have been a fun game for all the players, but no, you all wanna shit in your sandbox and be insulting. I bet when you play chess (if you can) you just rush to take as many of the opponents pieces as possible with no thought to strategy. Yeah, you could have had me tell you who some definite villagers are by now, but seriously, why would I want to help people who are just being rude to me?
All the incredulous bleating about "herp derp I dont understand how keeping you alive can help the aliens, durrr" just means you dont really understand the mechanics of the game.
Nowhere does it say I have to be on the villagers side.
It says I may reveal the MIB and survivalist if I wish
If I can tell the aliens who the survivalist is, it is to their advantage
If I can tell the aliens who the MIB is, it is to their advantage
If I can give the aliens information on who these are, then abducting me is not in their best interest.
And similarly:
If I can tell the villagers who aliens or other villagers are it is to their advantage
If I can give the villagers information on who these are, then lynching me is not on their best interest.
If I get abducted by an alien because they know who I am, it means another innocent villager can live. It does not affect the total number of active lynchers.
This is not rocket science. Yet it seems people cant get it.
You know, I thought it would be fun letting some of my tinfoil info out for people to use and build their guesses. I was all up for helping the villagers. Yes, of course I realised it would put me at risk, Im not a f*cking idiot, I was prepared to "take one for the team" if necessary (to use a phrase from elsewhere in this thread) but also had a plan to protect myself at least a little. I figured even if I was abducted, I would have the reward of having helped everyone else with at least a few clues to assist the villagers. Its called teamwork.
But theres no teamwork here, nobody wants to work together, instead the participants decide to hurl insults at me for daring to fulfill the most directly useful aspect of the tinfoil hat role. So what if Im not playing the way you would? Youre not playing the way I would. Im the only person with certain information about the Fesville population and the reasons you are giving for accusing people have no basis. Look at your utter failure to bag an alien yet.
I was ready to die at the hands of the aliens if necessary, but not before I had given out some useful info to the villagers. Now it looks like I might not bother after all. Ill just throw my hand, and if the aliens abduct me or not it will make no difference, because I aint coming back to Fesville. This information is revealed thanks to all those who screamed at me. You made this happen.
Cheesus is the gun nut.
Spin on that.
