Welcome to Prey the forum game. The game will last between 25-50 turns, chosen at random via random.org. At this point if you have not escaped your predicament you will die.
WIN CONDITION:
Escape your predicament by the end of the game.
RULES:
The group controls one character.
After the start of the game, every post made counts as a turn. This includes posts that include directions that are not followed by me, the host. So, if after the host posts the first move (the start of the game) five people respond, then you are now on turn five when I post the second move. Make sense? If you wish to discuss strategy with other members you may do so in a variety of ways including: using the shoutbox, PM, or another message client. If you so wish, you may also make a new topic specifically for strategy discussion - make sure you follow SEN's posting rules if you choose to do so.
The only exception to this rule is if you wish to vote for a previously posted direction. If you do not want it to count as a turn, you must follow these rules:
-quote the original post in full in your new post.
-type "This." underneath it.
-do not add any further explanation. Do not add any other words. Do not add to or subtract from the post you wish to second. Do not use transparent text. Do not bold, italicize, or otherwise alter the original post. Doing so will result in your response counting as a turn.
I will not tell you how many turns there are on in the game. However, I will give you a couple of hints:
When you reach roughly the halfway (+/-3 from half way point) point I will punctuate the end of the post with "you feel the night is growing thinner. Perhaps you better hurry."
When you reach near the end (within 3 from last turn), I will end it with "you are quickly running out of the time. Perhaps you should do something drastic."
You are limited to the natural laws of physics, but impress me.
If you have any questions that you need answered after the game starts, PM me. In the following move post, I will post at the end any questions I was asked and responses (I will also PM you immediately when you send me a question, but this way the group gets to know).
The game starts at 6:45 PM MST, or in roughly an hour. If you wish, you may determine what it is you will be carrying to this dinner party. Oh, and Theo has asked you to bring some wine, so pick a good one.
