WW 201: Oops All Cupids III (Day 3)

Spring 14

You wake up precisely at 6:00 to the sound of a rooster you’ve never seen. Another day in the beautiful Wolfdew Valley begins.

It’s Haley’s birthday today. The Statue of Fortune vomits out a pink cake. Inside the pink cake is a note.

You march toward the cabin of the fax machine which calls itself your senpai. You want answers, but inside you find two solar essence. Raven has died. They were a Cupid.

You see if anyone else is missing and find fiber and a truffle in the cabin normally occupied by bacon. Indy has died. They were Vanilla Town.

The world is mysteriously silent this morning. Where is the soundtrack that usually begins playing as soon as you wake up? Goat has died. They were Vanilla Town.

Now isn’t the time to turn toward the fourth wall. It’s Haley’s birthday today. She’ll be wanting this cake.

Somewhere out there you hear two people holding hands. A shiver runs down your spine.

Cupids may now discuss their Lover picks.

[spoiler title = “Special Game Mechanics”]

Non-Standard Rules:

• Every wolf is a Cupid who is able to select two players other than themselves who will be in a Lover couple together on Night 0. The twist? They won’t know who their fellow wolves Cupids are until the game starts on Day 1!
• Couples formed by Cupids will be placed into paired chats upon the start of the first day. Couples will not know the identity of their patron Cupid. Cupids cannot disclose their players they chose for their Couple until certain conditions are met. If one Lover dies, the other dies too unless…
• Polyamory! In the event that a Player is involved in more than one couple, the death rules change. If a Poly-Lover who is the central “node” in their poly relationship is targeted, all of their connected Lovers may die. Any Poly-Lover will stay alive if any of their other Lovers are alive! Poly-Lovers will all share a private chat.

Win Conditions:

• The game is over when the number of wolves makes up half or more of the Player population, or when all scum are killed.
• Wolves win if they make up half or more of the Player population.
• Town Wins if wolves are all dead. UNLESS!
• A Couple and their patron Cupid will share a victory over the traditional winning faction if they are the sole remaining couple alive when a traditional town or wolf victory is reached. A Cupid may still achieve victory from the graveyard if they bet on the right couple. Multiple couples still being alive will result in a Town or Wolf victory.

[spoiler title=Roles & Death Flips]

• ≤11 7 Vanilla Town
• 1 Private Investigator (Town) may each night learn how many couples a targeted player is part of
• 1 Paranormal Investigator (Town) may each night learn if a targeted player is Human or Cupid
• 1 Doctor (Town) may each night choose a targeted player to protect from death. Doctor may self-target, but may not target the same player twice in a row. The Doctor cannot save a Player from dying if their Lover is killed, but will prevent the Couple from dying if they protect the targeted Player.
• 3 2 Cupids (Wolves) each picked a pair of players they think can make it to the end together.
• ≤6 Lovers in ≤ 3 Couples.

≤ should be read as “up to”

Death Flips:

• All roles (VT, Lovers, Private Investigator, Paranormal Investigator, Doctor, and Cupids) will be announced at death and tracked.
