Tengaged Casting Strategy: A Field Guide (Part 1)

Dec 13, 2011 by pieknight
So I came onto this site searching for a Survivor-type game to pass the time but what I have found is a site that is as addictive as crack-cocaine. Here's a little form guide for the types of players you have based on my little experience so far.

'The Russell Hantz': The Russell is makes alliances left right and centre before the game even begins, occasionally in the public comments section. Willing to abandon alliances instantly to further himself one place, he's a very shady figure that's hard to trust.

TRAITS: Messages everyone, invites you to 3 separate Chatzys, a little too friendly to everyone before the game starts.

FLAWS: Being caught out in a lie.

STRATEGY RATING: 5/10. Ruthless, takes-no-prisoners style, and can yield both deep runs and instant exits depending on levels of sneakiness.

The Snoozer: The Snoozer thought it was going to be fun to play that game on Tengaged but then got tired. Or got called to dinner. Or had to alt-tab because he was doing homework. They are the exact reason why your game is taking soooooo freaking long!

TRAITS: *rotating clock when it's time to nominate for three minutes*

FLAWS: ANNOYS EVERYONE. >:C

STRATEGY RATING: 0/10. You have caused your own death and annoyed dozens. Too bad everyone's done this at some point.

The Socialite:

The chatty Kathy who manages to post in the comments sections for three hours' straight, collecting +'s and congratulations along the way.

TRAITS: Omnipresence in the public comments section.

STRENGTHS: A big receiver of the coveted POV trophy.

STRATEGY RATING: 6/10. A good way to make friends and alliances you can trust. Too bad they might be plotting to eliminate you in a Chatzy. What's that, the socialite asks!

The War Room General:

Deep in focus 100% on the game, The War Room General is unforgiving with his keyboard fingers of justice. Found in a Chatzy near you, he leaves no room for chitchat and all of his energy is focused on the next elimination. If found, he is targeted. If not, he has safety in numbers and can go a fair while.

STRATEGY RATING: 6.5/10. Ruthless concentration. Too bad there's not much room for trust through friendship. Cross him and he'll cut your throat.

The Unknowing Troll:

He got -3 for his last comment, but why?! Annoying everyone with his swearing/bigoted comments, the troll is looking for a pretty early exit. Or a final 3 berth for 3rd if he gets with the right people.

STRATEGY RATING: 2/10. The worst part is they don't know they're trolls.

The Experienced One:

She's been on tengaged for twelve years, is that even possible?! Anyone she doesn't know will be out because of her kick-ass professional avatar. And enormous friends list.

STRENGTHS: Experience, unpredictable hybrid strategy. Knows the ins and the outs.

WEAKNESSES: Double-guessing, overthinking the game and self-foot shooting.

STRATEGY RATING: 7.5/10. Solid player, but too can fall to a bunch of n00bs.

wrong wrong wrong, the russell hantz strategy is much more effective than 5/10, it's more like an 8 or 9 out of 10 if executed properly.

It sounds like this information is for fasting and not casting.
