Fighting "he could be fool" as scorned

#1

Just had a game where I marked two evils coincidentally but both time they got upped I saw the he could be fool remark popup. How do I go about convincing people they are actual evils and not a fool to get the exe I need and not left to prince?

#2

Honestly, I think the best thing to do here is to say something along the lines of “If we don’t lynch this guy, prince wastes a night jailing an evil we could have taken out in the day time and allowed the prince to jail another evil. The chances of this being fool is slim and I’m willing to bet he isn’t”

just make a really convincing arugment that he isn’t fool

Scorned - Gives people reason to more strongly consider evidence, As he’s the one evil that isn’t making an even trade by false accusing. Encourages you to scumread and measure behavior

Fool - Punishes you for reading behavior. Adds “playing just terribly” to the viable strategy pool. Also helps make gamethrowing harder to define. “Oh I wasn’t trying to get myself killed, I was trying to make myself look like I was trying too hard to get killed so I wouldn’t get killed”.

What people forget is that playing terribly is clearly a viable strategy considering that I’m one of the most respected FM players on this site :^)
