What do you do when you will get 0 vp's?

If I got back-ousted, I transfer out. Of course this rarely helps my predator in the long run since there is usually a reason that my prey wanted him as a predator as opposed to me. Otherwise I act as a poolsack for as long as possible.

I transfered out at a recent tournament final when my prey assisted my predator in ousting me. Of course, I was going to stealth-bleed him to death in another turn. I told my predator that he should let me oust my prey because he could have gotten me whenever he wanted to with his rush combat, and I wasn't so sure he could get my prey, who had an Assault Rifle and lots of tricks. I gave my predator a couple of extra actions by transfering out. As I expected, he couldn't get through his new prey, and a third player won the tournament.

So I guess I try to negotiate, too.

Ofcourse, these instances do not apply to the first given. If you think you have a chance at vp's no matter how, you should go for that, instead of all the other stuff.

Anymore ideas? I also heard someone say that they will go for having some effect on the table, no matter what.

Then this.



Seriously, though, 99,7% of the time there's a chance to get into the game again, at least some kind of a. I'll usually try my beest to stay alive, bunker, keep my predator down and DEAL like no tomorrow. If it's up to others to keep me alive, as it usually is, I'll try to offer others as much as possible to help me stay alive, either by rushes, pool votes, whatever.

Someone said that people quit way too easily. That's very true. I never self-oust. To me it's one of the most irresponsible things to do in VTES, and it ruins the game for everyone very easily. It's kind of your reponsibility towards others to try and survive for as long as possible.
