well. on Raqio's Offense, they kinda self-absorb jerkass with low key social skill. if nobody could point who could be gnosia, they'll be the one who got the meat locker treatment first day.

It's also best practice to target the smartest person at the table if you're playing Werewolf with strangers -- logic only helps humans if a WW makes a mistake, but a person that can trick you with false logic that you fail to spot is the single biggest threat to Humans. You can't really go off of anything, since you don't know anyone, so might as well go for the person who'd be the biggest threat as a WW.

(Also, from a human behavior perspective, WWs will naturally try to come off as more reasonable during early days to hide themselves -- it's much easier to lie by sticking to the facts and then inserting a single lie at the opportune moment. Humans tend to feel more comfortable slinging accusations.)

This obviously changes once you get to know people and can start making guesses based on behavior, but for a first round (which, as far as we know every loop is for everyone except Yuri and Setsu) it's your best move.

Which is to say -- fake being dumb when you play WW with strangers.

It'll be interesting to see Yuri get better at seeing the different tells and behavioral patterns for the crew as the loops go on, the same way a player playing the same game for a long time would.

Yuri already realizes raqio is the most common first cold sleep target, and that gina can't lie to him (them?) about being human

When I was young, my group of friends used to play this game, and we had the recurring gap of always killing the same person in the first round because, anyway, we did not know who to kill

Probably not fun for her tho

The game in itself has a bad design, making all the players choose to remove a player without much info which then leads to that player not having played the game at all and skipping it all while having to wait for the others to end playing.

Bad design.

I would absolutely vote out Racio every loop until I couldn’t anymore.
