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.

I have won Secret Hitler three times as Hitler. People are quick to trust me because they know I hate lying, and the people who know I am decent at lying look to my fiancée to see if she is trusting me - which means i only have to work to fool one person at the table.

I mean, I get lots of practice because my Fiancée loves social games and I’ve never been anything other than a Lizard in that game

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.

My general vibe is too mischievous on a surface level to win most of the time. I’m very easily amused and my eyebrows move too much.

I’m able to win when people are actually trying to play the game and not just be fucking around. Like everyone agrees that Blue was seen venting or killing someone; but then they all vote to space Green because “fUnNi.”

It’s why I really hate these games. Any game where the rules are enforced by the players themselves fucking suck, unless you’re physically in the same room.

I had a slow stalky strategy in Among Us. I’d take my time and cause distractions. If the crew could focus on getting tasks done, they’d beat me by time.

I’d also vouch for other players if I saw them do a visible task (get scanned, clear asteroids, whatever.) Doing so often ingratiated them to me, so they’d think I was also crew

A lot of players were super suspicious, glad to airlock people in a hurry. Waiting for the crew to thin themselves out informed [my] slow strategy.
