Thanks! looking forward to it

RPI-Fan · 01-22-2006, 01:38 PM

Just want to confirm before the game starts:

I can't be online b/w 7am and 6pm (EST) on Weekdays, but can and will at most other times. Is that acceptable?

hoopsguy · 01-22-2006, 01:51 PM

RPI, I think you will have plenty of time during the 24 hour "day" cycles with those time restrictions. The "night" cycles may be a little more challenging if/when they fall during actual daytime hours. So that would require a little planning on your part (or your teammates) if you have a role that requires something during that time.

Bottom line, I'm fine with it if you feel that you will have sufficient cycles to participate.

SirFozzie · 01-22-2006, 01:56 PM

just assuring you I'm in

Grammaticus · 01-22-2006, 09:40 PM

If I end up getting in this game, I have dibs on the "Fish" style!

I haven't seen the rule set, but I would love drunken master style.

Raiders Army · 01-22-2006, 09:47 PM

Interesting group of guys. This should be a fun read.

Grammaticus · 01-22-2006, 09:48 PM

I actually don't have any idea of the rules set either, just kidding around with Kung Fu cheeseness.

hoopsguy · 01-22-2006, 10:09 PM

I am all for having people get into their martial arts characters within the constructs of this game. I'll do my best to integrate your contributions into death scenes

Ya but, how do we do our really bad subtitles? Leave a blank message and then our lines???

hoopsguy · 01-23-2006, 08:29 AM

I'm planning to bring back the timestamp bug for this thread to accomodate that, Mustang.

hoopsguy · 01-23-2006, 07:30 PM

The summons went out across all corners of the globe to the greatest practitioners of dozens of martial arts. Each of you left everything behind to come to this desolate Chineese village to answer the call of a living legend, Chuck Norris. The instructions said to arrive between 4:30 - 5:00 AM at the bonfire in the middle of town (very loose interpretation of the word, more like a hovel).

Some of the other faces here are known to you, while others are a mystery. But each man possesses the confidence of one who is unequivocally unthreatened by his surroundings or his fellow men.

The disappointment is palpable when it is revealed at 5AM sharp that the hooded man near the bonfire is not the great Chuck Norris, but a younger, 30-something American who doesn't even have a respectable beard. And based on his lack of athleticism, this whelp wouldn't be capable of delivering a roundhouse kick to save his life!

"Greetings to all of our visitors here today. I am Hoopsguy and I am acting as the agent of Chuck Norris on this evening. You will not see me again after this meeting - from this evening forward you will have to deal with Chuck Norris. But since I am here now, I have instructions for you. Chuck Norris has discovered a mystical treasure that would elevate an accomplished warrior into the 2nd most deadly man on the planet. This item, and the understanding of how to release its power, would grant the ability to utterly annihilate every other man around this fire.

For those of you who stand for good, the samurai gathered here today, you have an opportunity to protect this item and to ensure that it does not fall under the sway of those who would abuse it. For those of you who embrace the ninja culture, you are close to holding a tool that would allow you to crush your foes.

Each passing day, as night falls, you will again gather here to face Chuck Norris. You will need to select a warrior to answer to his fury. Chuck will continue to visit you each day until every last ninja in the village has been rooted out. If a time arises where the ninja have equal numbers to the samurai then Chuck will personally destroy all remaining samurai for failing him. The item will then belong to the ninja. Do not force Chuck to do this; he has great faith in the samurai assmebled here tonight.

One final note - the smoke coming from this fire contains a chemical that both heightens and dulls your senses. For some, it will open pathways of thinking that you have never before possessed. But for all of you, it will prevent you from recalling any events prior to tonight. Although you may have encountered others in this group in past lives, none of this will be known to you now. Some of you may have the ability to recall critical details more quickly than others ...

Finally, please speak with each other in English so that all may benefit from your wisdom. I will now begin preparing in advance the graves for those who will ultimately prove to be unworthy of this honor.

I'm planning to send out roles sometime on Friday, depending on Internet access (likely afternoon, possibly evening). That should provide time for an extended Day 1 (no Night 0 in this game) over the weekend and through Monday to get things going.

Also, I would like to emphasize that no roles will be posted prior to the start of the game. The tie-breaker rules are not posted. The reveals on death will not be nearly as complete as they have been in the majority of other games on this board. Finally, don't count on the same roles that have been in just about every werewolf game, because some of them are not in the game and others have been tweaked. For those of you who like to play fast-and-loose with your werewolf games, I think you will have the ability to do so in this one.

Poli · 01-23-2006, 07:50 PM

I knew this was coming after the conversation at the Silo.

I'll definitely be watching.

hoopsguy · 01-23-2006, 10:09 PM

I would have opted to start this earlier, but I knew my Internet access was going to be limited this week. And I felt that it was going to be important to be around as much as possible during the first couple of days, just in case

By the way, is everyone OK with starting the Day 1 on Friday afternoon and running through Monday night at 8PM CST? If those dates/times are going to present issues please let me know either in this thread or via PM. Since no one has their roles at this point, I know that there isn't any angle-shooting if someone really does have issues with the (potentially) modified starting time ...

SirFozzie · 01-23-2006, 10:10 PM

I'm cool with it.

dubb93 · 01-23-2006, 10:11 PM

I'm OK with the start time, but my character is to constantly have alcohol and to use the drunken master style(see Jade Empire). I'll just need someone to toss me the drinks while I'm fighting.

Role information has been sent.

I'm looking at a deadline of Monday night at 8PM CST. From that point on, I'm gearing for a 24 hour daytime schedule and a limit of 12 hours for night actions. I will process night actions earlier if I receive them and none of the people with night actions PM me with objections to proceeding - will obviously randomize the time from getting the final night PM to protect the innocent and the guilty.
