Zell Wolf Discussion Thread Game 5

FYI when Christiana told us she told you everything and apologized for it I said this in response:

"I'm pretty sure yours is the way the game is supposed to be played with this role."

Yeah I mean ideally she should sell you guys out over time. Basically as you needed to be lynched. She needed to hedge her bets kinda like Vash did. But that's okay. She was new!
 
Yeah honestly the Lovers should ONLY get a win if they survive together.

But that's so ridiculously daunting that it wouldn't be as fun to play.

Like having all your wolf team blabbed to a townie.
Yeah that would make getting coupled a burden instead of fun. Also would be nearly impossible for villager-villager and wolf-wolf couples to ever win.

The idea of Cupid is you should pair people that you think are good / that you would want to win with.

The instigator, which is similar but has the ironclad "must win with your partner" condition, doesn't allow the instigator to pick his team. Also it's a forced wolf-villager couple.

I disagree. As the role and win condition had stated. My primary focus became the cupid win. Thus this kind of ends up working just like marriage. Never a good idea to keep secrets from one another. I became a wolf to the wolves, effectively. Without them being able to DM on the side, their jobs became super hard to be able plan anything around me. I guess I take the roles more like a DnD character role. Which is why I got upset at the end, because I felt others went against what their role was just to more real life kind of sort of get revenge for the what should have been inevitable betrayal.

No one seemed to suspect Christina as a wolf until Smacktard figured it out and even then it was just because of me. I maintain that she played things fantastically as a wolf.
She did quite well - she was also a great teammate in the wolf chat, I think kut, Alu, and I all sympathized with the position she was in at one point or another. Maybe that's also part of what made the initial reactions to it kind of "hostile".

Reasonable minds can differ. I'd think of it less as like keeping "secrets" and more like a birthday present. You're gonna get it soon, I'm just not gonna tell you what it is now :p

Full honesty about everything hurts the wolf in the wolf-villager couple, because if the couple does die the wolf half will never have a fallback.

Now if you were a RK-wolf couple? Oh yeah, share it all.

This is a great point and it honestly impacted how I played. I'll be honest, the night the shift occurred, I really really wanted to vote Vash but I honestly just felt awkward bringing it up in front of Christina and didn't want to deal with her reaction.

I just noticed I had an unsent message in wolf chat that was about being excited to get Christina a win as a wolf in her first game when that hasn't happened in a Zell game yet :(
I just went and looked at the chat.

This was my final message to you guys:

If I die- y'all got this. No one has really gone after any of you.

I still think we should tee up a time and play a few rounds of Among Us too. I'm about to head out for some groceries (making burgers) and then working for another two and a half hours, but I'll make a thread seeing if people were keen and when they might want to play. Less time to come up with convoluted plots, but the same sort of fun pressure that leads to excitement.
 
You may not even get 16, it was hard to this time.

I'll be out, I'm guessing Cole will be out.
We can wait a little longer for sign ups, we didn't have a few people in this game that have played: Raposa, Olga, FQ, canadaguy, Kat, Raine, Stalin, etc.

I'm so fuckin down for Among Us. That with voice chat would be a blast with familiar faces rather than randoms.
