The 75th Annual Brontogames

[Friday]

yes. both of you are now in the Cornucopia.

I may as well remind you of the rules for alliances:

Now that you're in one, you and Kazz are free to talk as much as you want, on irc, in pm, email, whatever.

You move and track as a unit. You can sleep and hunt for water/food separately.

You cannot split up as long as you remain in an alliance.

You cannot "guard the sleeping guy." If you both sleep, anyone who finds you may inflict auto-injury/kill on both. If one sleeps, the other is gone for the fight, off hunting.

If you are both hunting, anyone who finds you finds you both. Even if one is hunting for water and one is hunting for food.

Yes, none of that makes sense. GAME BALANCE

You may now trade items as you see fit. You cannot do this during combat.

[Friday]

Tweaks are coming in.

Already I've noticed several things that need to be addressed, so:

1. The max injuries is now 3 again. (4 kills you.)

(Niku is healed for 1, and is still 1 injury away from death.)

2. If you are caught while running and attacked, you cannot run for 2 rounds instead of 1. (Your pursuer gets 1 free attacks, then 2 rounds of normal combat.)

3. If an offer of Alliance is made, and the other person runs, he does not learn that Alliance was offered. This isn't a change, just a clarification.

[Mongrel]

Kazz is sure putting the effort in.

[Wheels]

I send explosives to Kazz.

[Z%rø]

I will not stand for the competitor Kazz using outside resources to give him an advantage and dragging the honor of our most prestigious and honorable Brontogames through the mud.

If the Master Of Games allows, I would like to sponsor a trigger.

Send a medkit to the one who kills Kazz.

Frocto walks into Beat's camp... and runs.

Beat chases him... (50%) and catches him just outside of camp.

"You done fucked up now," Beat says, brandishing his knives.

Whirirlrirlrir. (35+8+3%) He nicks Frocto's cheek. (47 rolled.)

Frocto raises a hand and dips his finger into the blood and stares at it.

Yo Froc, you gonna nade some bandits? You're stuck in combat for two rounds.

(Also, Beat, you could yourself run at this point now that your free attack has been used and you're facing a possible Nade. Both of you PM intentions.)

[Kazz]

Wheels, thank you for supporting the cause. *illegal salute*

Ziiro: you're a bourgeois prick and your kind is doomed

[Friday]

<beatbandito> hey, listen
<Friday> sup
<beatbandito> Can I choose to attack but not pursue if he runs? I think it was alreayd answered but I'm lazy
<Friday> yeah
<beatbandito> okay cool I do that
<Friday> alright, you've got two more rounds of combat first
<Friday> then if he runs you won't chase
<Friday> i'm still waiting on if he decides to use his nade on you
<beatbandito> oh so I can run now for regular run roll, but otherwise it's two round of combat?
<Friday> yes
<Friday> you know what
<beatbandito> okay so reading the main page
<beatbandito> He is basically forced to make an attack this round whatevre I choose
<Friday> if you want to just let him go and negate the orignal chase i'll allow that
<Friday> since you're still learning how it works
<Friday> do you want to do that?
<beatbandito> oh, that works though. That would be cool
<Friday> kk

so yeah, from now on though, I'm gonna be more clear when it comes to confrontation actions.

Basically, you'll need to specify what you do if your opponent runs when you give me an action. (unless you're running yourself.)

I made a thoughtless assumption that Beat would want to chase Frocto if he ran (I don't know why I made that assumption) which he didn't want to do. He was only attacking if Frocto was.

So since the fault is on my end, I'm rewinding and Frocto just escapes, with Beat choosing not to pursue.

Which means...

It is now Night 1.

Everyone, send actions.

Hunt, Water, Sleep, Move, Track specific or random.

[beatbandito]

Sponser Beat: I'll deny you explosions at every opportunity!

[Friday]

Kazz that Q in Kazz Q Tawdal is a motherfucking lie

[Esperath]

I send Frocto a medkit.

[Sharkey]

I send explosives to Romosome because fuck it.

[Frocto]

God bless Esperath. Now I don't gotta blow nobody's heads off.

[Friday]

Waiting on Doge, Grath, and the Clazzic Alliance.

[LaserBeing]

*shiver shiver*

it s-s-s-s-sure gets c-c-c-c-old out here at night... I should have worn a warmer c-c-c-c-cape

if only I had a jacket... or something to start a f-f-fire with... that would be (sniff) t-t-t-t-totally rad...

[Friday]

for just 38 cents a day, you can send shivering anime girls in the cold a jacket or a flint

act now and we will only embezzle like 80% of your donation no seriously it's a huge fucking problem with charities

anyway we're down to waiting on doge

Night 1 (A 10% penalty to all non-combat actions is in effect except sneaking, which is now 10% more effective.)

Newbie goes to sleep at The Lake. As he has no jacket or fire, he is at 40% risk to take an injury from exposure. But he curls into a ball and stays warm.

Mongrel moves to the Cornucopia.

Mizore searches for water. (25%) But finds nothing.

Mothra searches for water. (25-4%) He finds puddle, but, having no way to carry the water, can only prevent thirst from accumulating this cycle.

Laserbeing tracks Niku. (30+10-20%) He tracks that wily cakeman down! Confrontation.

Niku goes to sleep! Having no fire, but a jacket, he runs a 20% chance of taking an injury from exposure... but doesn't.

Frocto uses his medkit to cure his serious injury, care of one Esper-R-Mona, and then hunts for food. (25+20%) He finds and kills a Deer! Deer fuckin' all over these woods.

Beatbandit sleeps through the night. Having no fire or jacket, he's at 40% risk to take an injury... and does. Ouch, that cold has fangs.

Grath sneaks to The Lake.

Romosome sleeps through the night... with no fire, or jacket, he's at 40% risk. But his fur keeps him warm, of course. He receives a blinking package with a grenade inside. There's also a note: "Use this to fulfill your destiny."

The Klazzic Alliance attempts to track down the wily Niku. Kazz rolls... (30-20%) and fails. Classic rolls... (30+10-20%) and succeeds! Kazz also pockets his Grenade, alongside a note: "best place to watch duck dynasty"

****************************

Confrontation phase.

Grath has encountered a sleeping Newbie at the Lake. He may attempt to inflict an injury, (50% chance Newbie wakes up) ignore and just steal one free canteen from the Lake, or roll his sneak check (60%) to steal any item he wants from Newbie. Failing either roll will force a normal Confrontation.

Laser has found a sleeping Niku, but so has the Klazzik alliance. Meeting just outside Niku's camp, this encounter will be resolved first.

Grath, Newbie, Laser, Kazz/Classic, send me your actions. (Niku, you too, since you'll be confronting somebody.)

(Mongrel, you've taken control of the Cornucopia. You may take up to two rations.)

[Friday]

Grath opts to just take his free Canteen. He moves back to The Open.

Newbie remains at the Lake, unaware anything happened until the morning Holoboard report.
