In this particular case I could, but for all other cases, I would estimate a (very slightly) lower chance of winning. My ruleset was designed to be marginally more advantageous to the AI, by removing the worst possible Gatekeeper techniques.

It doesn't feel that much harder to me - if you are good enough to win by arguing, all you have to do is keep them interested enough to get hooked. I know it would be hard for me to just ignore the AI because of the sheer curiosity.

I have a fair bit of curiosity, which is why he said that in this case it probably wouldn't make a difference.

Non-curious people seem unlikely to play this game, much less pay to play it!

True.
