Its what you said, i feel like his priority is his position. Theres nothing inherently blatantly scummy about what hes doing and hes generally very careful, but if you think back to the last game, day 1 he wanted either gad or poyser dead day 1, he was very clear and firm about it
Here i dont get the sense he gives a fuck, so long as the horizon looks good - and it does. We could easily lynch any of gad, aurelian, luka, junk, soul, saber ... whats the chances even 3 ofcthem are scum?
We play scum quite similarly, which is why i think i have a fairly decent grasp. Not saying im guaranteed right of course.
This is a fairly good point - think what is missing from Ratchet's play here is taking potential mislynches off the table, he can be quite obnoxious in this regard as town.
