Post subject:  Roll to Dodge-The Most awesome forum game,EVER.

I've found this game where people do all kinds of crap... let the copy/paste speak for me.

>>>Found out the game is called Roll to Dodge,and is sweeping the internet<<<

Goal - Fufill needs, being warm, not hungry, clothed, not deing. Then win.

Win - Be last one alive.

The rules are simple:
1. Post ONE action.
2. I will roll my six sided die and tell you what the outcome is.
3. If by some devine fate there is something hurtling toward you, you are given one free roll to dodge the object.

Here is how the die rolls work out:
1- Epic failure. You actually take the exact opposite action.
_Have you ever tried to do something and screwed it up so bad the the original situation is now 100 times worse. This is the Epic Fail. From setting off an alarm while trying to hack a computer to drowning in a glass of water you just tried to drink.
2- Failure.
_Whatever you just tried to do, you didn't.
3- Marginal success.
_You did what you tried to do. Sort of. You attempted to read the book, but spaced out for a bit and just flipped the pages.
4- Success.
_You did what you were trying to do. This is to the letter of your post, so it may not give you an effective result.
5- Perfect success.
_This follows the intent of your post. Bullets warp around you and the universe goes out of its way to help you.
6- Overshot. You complete your task with to much force and cause other results along with your intended.
_Hulk Smash! Your punches send people through walls. Whatever you wanted to do happens, but in the most straight forward way possible and with excessive force. Alternatively, it will be the most off-the-wall, reality-shifting thing I can think of.

Example:
Starting post: You wake up on an enormous bed. There are several other people here. Your mind is hazy, and you can't remember anything about the last few days. You are extremely thirsty. You notice a single glass on a table at the far end of the room. You are unable to discern it's contents.

Player1: I crawl out of bed.
Me: Roll[2]. You flop around a little, groping several other people on the bed.

Player2: UGH! Get you hands off me! I kick Player1 in the face.
Me: Roll[6]. You seem to levitate over the bed for a few seconds, then shoot straight up towards the ceiling. You execute a perfect flip, your toes just brushing the roof, and snap one leg forward in time to connect with Player1's face. The force of your kick makes the bed explode. People go flying all over the room.

Roll to Dodge[5] for Player1. You dive perfectly out of the way of the bed pieces.
Roll to Dodge[1] for Player2. You dive straight into the path of the fly bed peices, you are impaled.

Got it?

Remember you can do almost anything, Also remember you have a 50% chance of doing it wrong. Also, if you attempt to take an action without an intermediate action (example, you try to wear a shirt you are not carrying) the action auto-fails. I may bend the rules to some posts, If you try to throw a grenade it requires the pulling of a pin I may count that as one action. You can't take the same action twice in a row, and only the first action you submit before I post the results of every bodies actions will be resolved.

/ENDCOPY/PASTE

Now here is how joining is going to work,Seeing the original,well... it was very messy,hosts swapped places and such.I'm afraid I'll achieve a mental overload if I have more that 6 players.

So the first six to post a action gets to play!
Everyone else must either wait for someone to die and take their slot or just watch the carnage.
Players:
-
-SX
-Treadhead
-Bulska
-
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
:beginning-Your in a room of no considerable detail,no doors,no boundries.(walls ext.)
You are here with 5 other people,there is a refridgerator in the room,far away from the group.
You are hungery.

BEGIN!!!

Not to complain but,why not specify who with these attempts?
The reason I picked you for Treadheads girlatron attack was because you were nearest to him.

I'm afraid I have to step in here.

One forum game is enough. And even the previous one is spam in disguise as well. These games may be fun, but there is no point in them nor do they include any discussion at all which is what forums were intended for.

These games are best played on irc or on msn. You guys should add each other to contact list and play there. No waiting for replies nor any moderators to ruin the fun.

Anyway, this thread will now be locked. I'll keep the other one open for now.
