jaguars4ever Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Hey Jag, the party is at my "Best Website Ever" thread. You should totally check it out before it gets locked. But bring your own drinks and music. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm on my way. :D
thepixiesrock Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Well, my party got the big lock down. Lou Gutman, P.I.- It's like I'm not even trying anymore!http://theatomicdanger.iforumer.com/index....theatomicdangerOne billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.
metadigital Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Yeah, nothing but chillout on the beat box now, man. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
213374U Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Noooooooo! I so would have liked a game with Number Man the Tyra...Peace Lover! Tell me about it. In fact it was just a cheap stratagem to allow for more time to refine my Blitzkrieg tactics to ensure a swift and utter victory... *Palps cackle* Anyway, when are you guys starting? - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

That way you'll clock in some learning exp. for game 3, no?
thepixiesrock Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Sounds a little fishy to me... You wouldn't happen to be trying to pull one by ol'Lou Gutman Private Investigator, would you?

jaguars4ever Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Sounds a little fishy to me... As my fellow leaders from Game 1 will no doubt attest, Lord Jaguar is completely straight and by the book with absolutely no links to organised crime whatsoever.
thepixiesrock Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Good, because you can't pull a fast one on old Lou Gutman, Private Investigater...

I'd also suggest that we hold the six Game 1 players as standbys for each country except my own, to cover the possibility that someone will stop playing without warning, as people are occasionally apt to do when the going gets tough. Hawk! Eggplant! AWAKEN!
EnderAndrew Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 I will be a standby for whichever country is winning the game until I bump the player out with a mysterious accident.
Darth Launch Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 I'm afraid I'm going to have to give the Diplomacy game a miss since, not only am I completely unskilled at such games, but I'm going away to Vietnam this summer and I'd just be holding up the game in my absence... hope you find someone to play... have fun [color=gray][i]OO-TINI![/i][/color]
Reveilled Posted July 17, 2005 Author Posted July 17, 2005 Buggrit. Well, that leaves Shadow as the last of our invited guests. Surely there must be someone else out there! Hawk! Eggplant! AWAKEN!
Reveilled Posted July 17, 2005 Author Posted July 17, 2005 All righty then! Our seven players are: Nartwak thepixiesrock Aishur-Rim-Nisheshu Reveilled Darkside Deraldin JediConsular7 And our GM is Metadigital. Here is how country assignment works. Everyone sends Metadigital a list of the countries they'd like to play, in order of preference, e.g. 1. Russia 2. England 3. Turkey 4. Germany 5. Austria 6. France 7. Italy What then happens is that once Metadigital recieves seven lists, he will select one player at random, and assign them their first choice. Then, he will select a second player, and assign them their first choice. If their first choice is already taken, they are assigned their second choice, and so on until they get a power no-one else has yet chosen, and so on until all countries have been assigned. You can also submit certain countries equally, e.g. 1. Russia/England 3. Turkey 4. Germany/Austria/France 7. Italy If more than one of your first choices are available, the one you play is assigned randomly. If only one is available, you get that one, and if none are available, you get the next choice on your list, or the next, and so on. In this example, if neither Russia or England are taken, the player randomly gets either Russia or England. If one is taken, but not the other, the player gets the other. If both are taken, then the player gets Turkey. If Both are taken and so is Turkey, the player randomly gets Germany, Austria, or France, etc. etc. Therefore, if you don't care which country you get, then submit: 1. Russia/England/Turkey/Germany/Austria/France/Italy (the countries don't have to be in that order, the result will be the same regardless). Note that this is different from not submitting a list at all, which means you automatically be selected last and get whatever is left over. I would post meta's address here, but aside from the fact that I feel uncomfortable giving out someone else's email address, as a matter of curteousy I'm going to wait for him to say that he is ready to begin before I hand the game over to him. When he is ready, please Email him your list rather than PMing it, as he will need your email adresses so that he can distribute them to other players. Also, Mets, if you like I can send you the image I use for mapping the turns, or alternatively I can continue to do the mapping, simply mailing it out to everyone once the orders are published. Hawk! Eggplant! AWAKEN!
Baley Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 I would be an awesome DM. I'd have to read the manual,but nah.. Better yet I could change all the rules and proclaim Romania victor.

Darkside Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Oh hell, we're not using PMs? I could get in trouble for this. Is it too late to back out? I am deeply sorry, but the last thing I need is to be told I can't post here anymore.

I'm already on "probabtion" of sorts, I can't risk getting my only pastime I have right now taken from me. Again, I'm deeply sorry for doing this. I really wanted to play.
Baley Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Get a new email address. It's not hard at all. No one has to know.
