I consistently lose and always fail the vibe checks. I have given up on trying to win and now I sow chaos for fun when people insist on playing them.

It's a fun trick to enjoy the game even if winning is off the table.

Whenever I play with other autistic people the game tends to just become a discussion of probabilities and game theory, to the detriment of all non-autistic people at the table. I'm always having a blast though.

I remember a game of Avalon where a fellow autist declared that the game was trivial and told us his strategy for deducing the traitor. His mistake was making a hard assumption on the players' risk tolerance. The round where I was traitor, I meta-gamed the shit out it. It was hilarious watching his confusion when nothing panned out the way he thought.
