As a side note, I also think this role was perfect for me. I didn't have to interact with townies, didn't have to argue against my scum reads, and I could just watch how people played independent of my opinion of them (for the most part). I still had relatively meaningful impact on the game as a whole, and as the game drew longer, my ability to influence and lead town would have gotten stronger. Being objective in a game has always been the hardest thing for me to do, and this role allowed me to do it while also actually being invested in the outcome and having a hand in it. I also didn't have to spend a ridiculous amount of time in the thread posting to get people to think I was town, the only time commitment was during the night phases where I could easily catch up and decide my night actions.

What I want to ask is, do people think I used the role well? I think the check was good, because reading Slam early is difficult for me and I did actually think he would live long enough for the check to be meaningful, and thus possibly take a bullet as a player who otherwise might not. The roleblocks I used obviously missed, but I used them on two different people thinking that I might get a chance to see one claim the block and the other not, sort of as a second cop check. If I had known there was an anti-Seldon role earlier, I might have used it differently.

As for the posts, I don't know what else could have been useful besides reads or claims. I had a very limited number of words, so clarity was paramount so that town wouldn't misunderstand me. I basically had to focus on talking about scummy people to point town in the right direction. Is there any other way to use the posts?
