CFUW 119 WOLVES

[cfuw_shepherd]

Hello, you lucky boys and girls! This is the wolf post! It's open only to the shepherds, wolf players--and it'll be open to mentors shortly, too. You can use it for planning stuff among yourselves, discussing who you think is getting close to suspecting your teams, et cetera.

You also get one wolf-only mentor, the lovely Impulse! He's here as a backup for you guys, in case you need a question answered, but all the wolf mentors and the shepherds have wandered off simultaneously. Do not mention him to the sheep, as he'll only be present in this post.

....ah, while we're waiting for everyone to get to know each other, would anyone like some tea?

*already has a pot prepared, even!*

[marypoopins.livejournal.com]

Yes, please.

Tea's boring. Don't you have anything better?

[pussyfortono]

I want chocolate milk!

[isdrivingbear.livejournal.com]

Tea sounds nice! Thank you!

[pussyfortono]

Woaahhh.

[itsstormmink.livejournal.com]

You need to start up our team post now.

*waves, he has a sign around his neck that says "Ask me about how you can be a better wolf short of getting fleas or howling at the moon because that's suspicious"

Hi guys!

[pussyfortono]

So. How can I be a better wolf?

[cfuw-shepherd.livejournal.com]

All riiiight, guys! Now you get to multitask. Tough job, but someone's gotta do it!

Like Labrador says, to only do you have to pretend to be sheep in the ousting post, defend yourselves and deflect suspicion off yourselves and your fellow wolves, you've gotta talk amongst yourselves and pick a team of sheep to eat before the end of the hour! Your mentors should be able to give you some tips to help you choose, but--generally it's not good to eat a sheep team from a clue unless they're confirmed sheep by process of elimination. Otherwise, you know, you make it way easier for the sheep to pick out their wolf!

Please have your choice ready by 8 PM PST; I'll be checking back then!

Okay, guys! Any idea on who we wanna eat?

[isdrivingbear.livejournal.com]

I believe that we should... eat... Tyki and Shigure.

I'm just following my gut; but I'm willing to hear other suggestions, of course.

[cfuw-shepherd.livejournal.com]

So who's getting eaten, guys?

[pussyfortono]

Looks like it's Tyki and Shigure.

[cfuw-shepherd.livejournal.com]

...so quiet...

[drapethuselah]

Indeed...I spy, with my little eye, a phrase beginning with "A."

[isdrivingbear.livejournal.com]

Ah! I'm sorry!

WHO'S THE MEAL TONIGHT GUYS

[marypoopins.livejournal.com]

YEAH GUYS.

Ah... since it seems there's a little confusion....

Just because you're wolves in the game doesn't really mean it's any harder than being a sheep. Some people might like playing one side or the other better, but both of them have their challenges. For wolves, it's pretending to be sheep, while deciding which sheep to take out from the game. This is why working together is so important for wolves, since otherwise the sheep might vote out a wolf just by luck.

However, it's also important to remember that however you play the game, it's best to try to participate. It doesn't mean much if you don't play in the first place, after all. Vote in the polls and talk to the other teams, usually people expect sheep to be helpful, after all, and every vote counts- sometimes it just takes one vote to keep a wolf from being ousted. If you have questions or aren't sure what to do, you can always talk to the other wolves here, and to your mentors. Just remember that asking questions and talking to people, no matter what you do, is better than not doing anything.

Finally, keep in mind that whatever happens, it's still just a game. Sometimes people get a little too caught up in things, or nervous about doing things right. But the point is to have fun, so don't worry and just play your best no matter what.

If you do have any questions, though, please feel free to ask.

Okay, and since I don't think I've been a lot of help one tip I know works, even for me, is knowing who you're up against! So maybe this'll help Saki if the Robins really wanna argue with her team.

...Dang.

[cfuw-shepherd.livejournal.com]

Who's your meal?

[notmakingout.livejournal.com]

This should be an easy one.

[marypoopins.livejournal.com]

Labrador, you're paying attention right? Looks like they're catching on.

Finally.

[profeseed.livejournal.com]

Ah... some of them, at least....

[cfuw-shepherd.livejournal.com]

You might win tonight, or you might go another day and eat another team! Just in case it's the latter, you need to pick a meal!

...hello out there~?
