You could also pretend like they've always been there. We've already had a few late arrivals so it would not reflect well to have a much larger group of them.

Oh dang, I should change my post then.

Either way will work. That's just my 2 cents.

So... what's the course like? There's a rock wall, sure, but what else? Stepping stones above some poisonous, or pirhana filled liquid? A thin wire the only bridge across a sea of spikes? A salmon ladder? (Those things are evil.) Come on, let's get all Ninja Warrior up in this piece!

Saarebas are you going to choose who wins?

I've never been good with those kinds of details, I wouldn't mind hearing some of your guys' ideas > Saarebas are you going to choose who wins? I was going to let you guys decided among yourselves, only stepping in if you couldn't come to agreement

I, honestly, would say to keep it simple at first and get progressively harder as we come back.

He had a rather pleased look as he stood, impressed with her. hagroden, everyone powers/abilities are being suppressed. He will not freeze anything.

Before we continue, we should seriously figure out who wins. Saarebas, I really think you should choose since you're GM. All of us would want our character to win.

I'm inclined to agree with Scarlet. The way I see it, either a majority of us will want our own characters to win, or we'll be indecisive because nobody wants to look like 'That Guy' for voting for our characters. Also, you want ideas for the obstacle course, eh Saarebas? As you wish. Though I warn you, my ideas for obstacles are a bit less "live or die" and more "Impede everyone in extremely aggravating ways". In other words, these are what I lovingly refer to as jackass obstacles. -Air cannons with trip wires filled with paint (or any other non-lethal chemical of your choice.) -The surface of one of the platforms is completely made of roller bars. -A few of the turrets are either loaded with shock rounds or nausea inducing chemicals contained in breakable pellets -Platforms that use optical illusions to seem much higher than they really are, thereby inducing vertigo in some students -Bolo launchers placed either before or after some of the jumps -Pistons built into the rock wall that will come out at random to hit people as they climb (you can thank WipeOut for this one)

I didn't know it was a straight race. I just thought they had to finish it, and whoever just blows it has to clean bathrooms.

Oh damn I really gotta check the OOC more often.

You write large posts. I do not have the creativity for such volume.

Yeah, I'm way behind. Can't think right now. Also, Jin would want to win, but she doesn't have the capacity to do so right now. Besides, if she starts out on top, then I'll have nowhere to go with her but down, and that's not the story I wish to tell with her.

I'm lost on who's who. :O

Leon is going to lose his powers...but the ability has altered his physiology to make his body that of an Olympic athlete... That being said I have no desire for him to win...

> I'm lost on who's who. :O Jin is the short, mouthy, telekinetic who's going through some gender identity issues right now. Well, to be honest, it's more other people's issues with Jin's gender...

Hopefully he will continue to like Jin when she starts revealing some things. That's WAY down the line, though, and will require a serious amount of trust for Jin to even broach the topic with anything other than 'fuck off'.
