WILD CITY

You and your team find yourself chilling inside of an elevator!

There aren't chairs or anything to sit on, sorry about that. I mean, it's an elevator okay, not a fancy restaurant, geez.

However, enjoy the elevator music. Sometimes it gets interrupted by another song (OOC: but really, that's for my own satisfaction so you can choose to ignore it..

Elevator bad.

That it is. All bad games are terrible, but I really don't like the looks of this.

Mm...it's tough to say how it will shake out. It depends on who is playing on the other teams.

Right... I have no idea if my brothers or partners are involved this time. Ugh.

Certain people play really hard too. So we could be up against people who play gently or people who go all out to win.

Lots of graduations and the like lately too, I don't have a read on as many of the teams as I used to.

Mm, I have to get back to doing lives.

How did you want to handle this?

Tough to say. If we play too hard in the first round, we can cause a feeding frenzy for the other rounds. Without knowing who all is playing though, we don't know how hard other teams may be playing right out the gate.

Maybe just a few then... don't need to hit the max, but you're right. If one unit plays hard everybody is going to start following suit to mitigate punishments.

It also depends....on how likely we think are sins are going to get picked.

Probably pretty likely depending on what they've chosen for me, but I'm more concerned about you guys.

Some people might choose things that don't seem so "bad" just to be contrary. So having "lesser" sins doesn't mean protection.

Got any feelings on how you want to play?

Sounds like experience.

Buckle up, we're in for a ride.

Yay.

[The most deadpan.]

Well, I ain't got much opinion. Long as we're not being overly cruel.

I think everyone will feel out the first round, but I could be wrong. So we could play lighter this round and play catch up in subsequent rounds if we have to?

If that's your strategy that's fine with me.

All right, I'll talk to the others. Is there a "sin" that sticks out to you?

Has something like this happened before?

Mm, there's been a few games like this. Punish others to save yourself kind of things. Not playing can wind up hurting more people though than just picking some.

Yes. They said something about a random number of people being hurt--up to 51? It doesn't seem worth the risk. Especially not when I'm sure we'd rather avoid dying.

What strategy did the unit use last time?

Usually depends on if we know who else is playing and how hard they're known to play.

7 seems to be the magic number here. People will shoot for that because it gets punishment lessened. However, with the option to choose less, people might aim for hurting fewer people. I guess it depends on how bad everyone's sins are.

I think we can afford to play light this round though and feel things out. Any thoughts?

Not really. I'm fine with us adjusting how we play as we figure out how everyone else is... but if we start too soft we might not be able to make up for it later.

Looking at this list, I can't really identify anyone that we might want to avoid--although Hardy said he sees himself there. I'd thought they wouldn't include our own in the list, but it seems like that's not the case.

We can start with between 3 to 5? I think the people that play hard will hit at least the 7. And the people that are going to play light will do 3 or less. So if we go in that middle zone, we won't be at too much of a risk later?
