"Chance."

"Whaaaaaa"

"Chance, get up."

"But the submarine..."

"GET UP."

Chance groaned at the thought of moving. This morning was not unlike any other. Slowly, but with deliberance, he flopped out of his bed and onto the floor.

"You're gonna be late for school if you don't get up soon," called out Chance's mother. Her waking words echoed about the house as Chance gathered the strength to lift himself.

"I'm coming, I'm coming..."


A senior at Herpal High School, Chance is essentially the definition of your average student. Average marks, average size, colour of majority (white, in this case) with a handful of close friends.

However, nothing is set in stone. This seemingly normal teenager is about to embark on an epic journey guided by fate, and guided by you.


Finally on his feet, Chance held his palm to his forehead, trying to clear his head. He needed to wash up and get moving, or he'd be late for school.

[Suggest a general action for Chance to take. A random number generator (0-100) will determine how it goes. GLFH.]

Your roll: 33


Annoyed at his mother's incessant whining, Chance decided to once and for all end her life. After procuring a knife from the kitchen, Chance began creeping ever so slowly towards his mother, patiently awaiting the perfect moment to wrench her neck to the side and plunge the blade in. Carefully and quietly, he edged closer and closer.

A loud squeak erupted from Chance's foot. He had stepped on a dog's chew toy! This struck Chance as odd, seeing as their family did not own a dog, but it also startled his mother. She turned to Chance to see him crouching behind her with a knife drawn.

"Chance, what are you doing?"

Speechless and without a reasonable excuse, Chance sputtered a few arbitrary syllables before running out the door.

"Fuck this shit," said Chance to himself. "I'm scoring some fucking coke."

Chance pulled out his phone and dialed a local drug dealer. He recieved no answer.

Frustrated and standing in the middle of the road, Chance contemplated his next action.

Who wants to play a game where all our actions fail? A chew toy for a dog they don't own? Cool story.

If both failures were due to the random numbers, then I'd like to know how they are used to determine what happens.

Yeah shouldnt a 58 have been reasonably successful?

I'd like to invest all our initial stat points into Luck.



None.

Killing your own mother is such a fucking retarded idea that it would've taken a roll of 95 or higher to succeed.

No stats or anything. Everything is arbitrary. Gogogo.

Chance, distraught at his inability to find cocaine, decided it would be a good idea to stand in traffic until he was hit. However, being early in the morning on a sunny day, most of the street's traffic drove around him.

However, just as Chance was going to give up, he managed to hurl himself in front of a slow moving bicycle.

The biker, a small child, began crying and ran away.

If the kid's bicycle is still there, steal it, take it to the nearest pawn shop and see if it sells for anything.



None.

Chance, seeing a child's misfortune as an opportunity, attempted to climb onto the bike. Upon realizing that the toddler's mode of transportation was far too small for him, he picked it up and started walking to the pawn shop.

A dirty looking man greeted Chance from behind a dusty counter. The small shop was littered with odds and ends, though nothing seemed of particular interest to Chance. The shopkeep, acknowledging the stolen nature of the bicycle, gave Chance a cool $10.

Chance looked at his shiny new ten dollar bill. He smiled, pocketed the cash and left the store.

Checking his watch, Chance realized that he was beyond late for school.

Because a forum game about a fictional character should be serious business.

So basically we can suggest anything, but if it's not within the parameters of what you consider acceptable activity then you'll skew the odds to make sure it doesn't happen. Sounds like a really fun game.

NudeRaider -- Dem0n
Dem0n shouted: who said you were crossing a line
NT kinda did Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet shouted: I always thought it was kind of messed up to impersonate someone without their permission, but I guess that's artistic license for you. When you get into the realm of using AI to do it.. it seems even worse to me, but I'm not sure why
[2023-12-08. : 8:38 pm]
Zoan -- and tbh no, this is exactly the type of thing ai should be used for. Now if you were monetizing it, I would say you should emohasize you used ai for the voicelines
[2023-12-08. : 8:29 pm]
Zoan -- he asked if "am I now crossing a line"
[2023-12-08. : 7:43 pm]
Dem0n -- who said you were crossing a line
[2023-12-08. : 2:24 pm]
Oh_Man -- but if i want to make a LOTR map and use AI generation to give aragorn etc more voice lines am I now suddenly crossing a line? wen did we get so snowflakey
[2023-12-08. : 2:23 pm]
Oh_Man -- well we been doing dodgy stuff in SC for ages playing resident evil and helms deep maps - we dont own the rights to them
[2023-12-06. : 8:46 pm]
Ultraviolet -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Ultraviolet absolutely. You can count me among those folks. ;) But I understand it. It's a silly name only kids find funny. However to know that and still own it that would be the manliest move in my eyes.
Yeah, I can appreciate that perspective. I've used so many handles over the years, I think I had less attachment to NerdyTerdy than some of the folks here. Just never changed my name much here cause it was expensive :P I still kind of like the NT name, but definitely prefer Ultraviolet. I think UV has been my handle for around half my life at this point O.o
[2023-12-06. : 6:34 pm]
NudeRaider -- So the question is will we as a society become resilient against these forms of attacks? Either by detecting or accepting? Find new ways to deal with it? I guess we will have to wait and see.
[2023-12-06. : 6:32 pm]
NudeRaider -- da real donwano
da real donwano shouted: Society is not ready for the AI power we're being given. I'll die on that hill.
"social media" is imo a much better example for "society was not ready for it". We haven't seen yet where AI will lead us. It has a lot of potential for good, but then again, so had social media. For now the only potential for abuse in AI that I see is in forgery of various kinds.

NudeRaider -- Oh_Man
Oh_Man shouted: guys what are your thoughts on AI voice cloning vs someone doing impressions. why is one moral and the other immoral? or do you think both are fair game
For me it's the intent that make the difference, not the method. If you copy someone for profit or harm, then that's immoral. If your goal is satire then all bets are off. I think people are just afraid to be deceived because AI removes skill from the equation and painting AI usage as immoral is their weak attempt to defend against it.
