I don't think there's really anything good about TWIE's play but I'm still having trouble letting go of the Blonde "I can make myself confirmed town" thing, which would be a pretty impressive play from newscum, who, in his last game as scum, just sort of sat around and let himself get lynched.
Nearly every role in this game has the potential to confirm itself as town. Mine does, for example. It's no great stretch of the imagination for Blonde to think the same and say it, regardless of alignment. This also raises the nasty little problem of TWIE not actually confirming himself and coasting like fuck. You would think he'd at least confirm himself and then coast, if that was his plan.
This alleviates none of my concerns.
It's actually a pretty big stretch to assume that Blonde, who again, is a newbie, would see a way his scum role could confirm him as town because that's impossible. Him faking a way to confirm himself as town seems doubtful because it's a ballsy move from a scum player to claim a power they don't have for absolutely no reason: on the other hand, it would make sense if Blonde interpreted his role wrong and was incorrect about what was "confirmed town" and what wasn't in this meta.
