Glue Wars - An Introduction

Rick

Welcome to The Glue Wars Podcast, the only podcast dedicated to the greatest game of deception, strategy, and, well, glue. I am Rick Marquette.

Eric Marquette

And I am Eric Marquette. And if you are listening for the first time, you are in for a wild ride. This is your official introduction to Glue Wars.

Rick

Now, for those of you who have been here since day one, you already know how chaotic things can get. But for our new listeners, let us break it down.

Eric Marquette

So, what exactly is Glue Wars? Well, it is a game. A game of strategy. A game of alliances. A game where the goal is simple—hold onto the glue.

Rick

That is it. Just keep the glue in your possession. Sounds easy, right?

Eric Marquette

Not even close. Because everyone else is trying to take it from you.

Rick

And they will lie, trick, and sometimes even outright steal to make sure they get it.

Eric Marquette

And that is what makes it so good. It is not just about having the glue. It is about making sure no one else knows where it is.

Rick

Or making them think they know where it is. Because let me tell you, some of the best moves in Glue Wars are not just about getting the glue. They are about making other people think they are getting the glue—when really, they are walking straight into a trap.

Eric Marquette

Which brings us to the rules. Because yes, there are rules. Even in Glue Wars, chaos has its limits.

Rick

Kind of.

Eric Marquette

Sort of. But there is a system to keep things from getting completely out of control.

Rick

And that system is strikes.

Eric Marquette

Strikes are handed out for bad behavior. Maybe you stole the glue before the game started. Maybe you tried to change the rules. Maybe you just did something so out of line that it had to be punished.

Rick

You get eight strikes, and you earn yourself a warning. Not great, but not the end of the world.

Eric Marquette

Get twenty warnings, and now you have a real problem. Because that is when you earn something called a disappointment award.

Rick

And trust me, you do not want a disappointment award.

Eric Marquette

It is exactly what it sounds like. It is a formal recognition of just how badly you have messed up.

Rick

And if you somehow manage to get thirty five disappointment awards, well, congratulations. You are officially disqualified.

Eric Marquette

Which means you are out of Glue Wars for good. No more scheming, no more alliances, no more chance at victory.

Rick

And let me tell you, nobody wants to go out that way.

Eric Marquette

Now, if you are wondering why the rules sound so complicated, it is because Glue Wars is not just a game. It is a war. And wars have consequences.

Rick

And honestly, the best part of the game is watching how people react to those consequences. Some players play it safe. Others push the boundaries until they are one step away from disaster.

Eric Marquette

And that is exactly what we cover here on the podcast. Every trick, every betrayal, every shocking moment. If it happens in Glue Wars, we are talking about it.

Rick

So, if you are new here, welcome. If you have been here since the beginning, welcome back. Either way, buckle up. Because Glue Wars is just getting started.

Eric Marquette

And trust us, it only gets crazier from here.Thanks for tuning in and get ready for the glue.
