The Mole (season 1 of the original specifically) really stuck with me in a way I had trouble articulating, and the YT video and this one really puts those feelings to words. Thanks!
One topic I feel hasn’t really touched on yet is the possibility that one of the “players who don’t think like a probability machine” being correct and going way farther than they should based on the built in sorting system for the “best players”
I wonder if this is a solvable issue, or if it doesn’t necessarily need to be solved?
Has anybody across the different versions ever done this strategy? (I’ve only seen season 1 of the original) Act like a breadwinner for the early game, and as your first act of deception, confide in an ally that you’ve been voting one player the entire game so you’re certain they’re the mole. Then based on whether your ally goes home, you can make some deductions. Worst case scenario, you eliminate some competition and a suspect, best case scenario you’re accidentally correct and you can hop on that bandwagon. (Of course, this does put you in the risky position to be deceived in return)
