@Perpenheimer i'm lazy and i can't do photoshop magic

[Perpenheimer]

@Zoey White Just takes time and practice.

[Zoey Boey]

@Perpenheimer

but you said lazyness, not time and practice

that's the opposite of lazyness

:(

[Perpenheimer]

@Zoey White Takes time and practice to get to the point when you can just pump these things out when you're bored or lazy.

I'll be writing up a CS. I have a few questions. What happens if a player kills someone who isn't their target? Will everyone start in a random spot? Do they know the stores hold weapons, and are the stores a no-kill zone?

@Zoey White Never underestimate the ingenuity of a lazy person.

@Perpenheimer

A truer word has never been said.

OOC, it will happen just like any other death. IC, if a characters kills a different person, the killer will technically have completed the experiment. The character who was assigned to the killer will be assigned to someone else, and the character who was assigned to the killed character will be assigned to someone else as well. No one leaves until they kill someone. Killing the wrong person will, in a way, unlock a secret ending for that character. So if you kill the wrong person on purpose (there won't be any accidents), your character will be done with the experiment. It'll end a bit differently for them, though.

Everyone wills start by waking up in the very center of the map in a large room.

They will be told about the stores, and the stores are indeed no-kill zones. However, camping or hiding in them is not going to work.

[Mattchstick]

@PerpenheimerYeah but how do I make them appear as an image?

EDIT: Nevermind figured it out.

[Perpenheimer]

@Mattchstick Press the image button at the top bar of where you write your post. Put the url of the image between the two [url] brackets. You can do this with the map too.

[Mattchstick]

@PerpenheimerThat didn't work, so I just added .jpg to the end of the url and used [img] code instead of [url].

[Perpenheimer]

Yeah sorry, I'm tired, my bad.

[Mattchstick]

@PerpenheimerI'm not going to use a signature. I've never liked sigs much, they cause too much visual noise and distract from the actual story.

Speaking of distractions, you are all free to use stuff like colored text for dialogue in your IC posts, as long as no two people use the same color.

[Zoey Boey]

@Perpenheimer thank you mr wizard

[Mattchstick]

Alright, so we're holding at 4 people right now. I want to start with at least 5, preferably 6, but I'll start pretty soon after a 5th person joins.

[Forgiveness]

your 5th had arrived.

[Mattchstick]

Get that CS up in here then.

Probably won't start it tomorrow. It'd be late evening if at all. And Thursday is Thanksgiving, which I will be celebrating with family in a different state. I plan to get this thing running by Thursday evening. It'll give me a chance to decide who gets paired with who and send out all the PMs, and it'll give any potential new players a chance to join.

By the way, I'll be marking the GM private messages as "IC." Those will be texts from my character to yours. Don't bother responding to those. OOC questions to me go right here in the OOC. I look forward to driving all of you a bit crazy knowing that I'm giving other people life and death information and you'll never know what it is.

@PerpenheimerFour skills is too many skills. Reduce it to two. "General survival" for example is not a factor, since food, water, and supplies are all free and accessible. Same for "cold-weather survival."

[Perpenheimer]

@Mattchstick Done.
