Yeah, I did like this format a lot better.
As for watching you all play, you're all very honest! From my experience, even as a good player, it can often be beneficial to lie about your role to begin with. Fun things you can do include being a seer, looking in the middle and claiming one of those roles instead (For instance spotting a troublemaker in there and claiming to switch players)
Lie about who you stole from as a robber, who you swapped as a troublemaker. This will force discussion.
Basically, not all lies are bad (But equally, continuous lying can be viewed as suspicious. As a good player you want to put pressure on the wolves by making them doubt themselves, and what their roles actually are.
Depending on the roles dealt out, they can either be in a very strong or weak position, being played online like this does make it easier for the wolves because in the physical game if at the very start someone points at you and says 'I was the seer, I looked at you and you're a wolf' that gives you a couple of seconds to react and try and figure out a safe counterclaim.
