No! I think it's fine just the way it is, and to hell with all who dare say otherwise!

1 (6.3%)

Yes, and I know exactly how it should be done! (elaborate below)

2 (12.5%)

Yes, but I have no idea how it should be done!

3 (18.8%)

Yes, by setting a base limit for the amount of time that passes per update. (specify limit below)

1 (6.3%)

Why yes, DZA, I am indeed well aware that I am wasting my vote by selecting this completely useless poll option.

I am the ninja reader. You cannot escape me.

Well, I decided to come out of my lurker shell when i saw read through this epic forum game, and decided that I couldn't pass this one up. Applying for once in my observant life. I'm thinking of a Druidic type character who can call on the aid of nature/shape-shift/manifest spirits of the land, though this is quite rough to be honest. I'll see if i can come up with a more written up character App tomorrow, as well as toss around a few other ideas when i am not in dire need of sleep.

[Xantalos]

Ooh! Always good to have a new prospector on board!
...
You probably know already, but beware of the wait times.

[Xantalos]

This deserves a GIF.

Now's your chance to make up for lost time Xantalos! Get out there and up the ante!

Slip into a movie theater from the projector area and eat everyone while they're distracted! Whoops that's been done.

Maybe slither through the sewers and climb up through people's drains to suck them down. Dang that's been done too.

Okay how about you just go out there and roll over everything to absorb it all. I mean you're pretty much invulnerable anyway...

Actually forget everything else. Your first mission should be to tactfully eliminate all the world's fire extinguishers. They are by far the greatest threat to your victory. I mean god forbid you get frozen and trapped in the Arctic. What are the odds that the Arctic will ever stop being cold...

PS: I'm sorry. I used to love watching the blob as a kid and I've been dying to make some of those lame jokes for a while now.

Time to get serious. I need a cult. And fast.

(Damn it, I'm always late responding to new participants...)

First off, I'm simply flattered that this game is what convinced you to finally join the forum community, and hope that your time spent here as an official member of Bay 12 will be nothing short of wondrous (of course, what with me being here, I honestly don't see how anyone could possibly find their time on these forums to be anything other than absolutely euphoric).

I greatly look forward to seeing what sort of character(s) you come up with, and even more so to seeing them raise hell on Earth as humanity saving/annihilating badasses. We're not exactly dealing with any shortage of Chosen Ones at the moment, so feel free to take your time.

Keep it up, and The Entity just might end up taking my place as adviser for Chosen Ones. 

[gman8181]

Haha, don't tempt me.

It's hard enough already to stop myself from making more of my lame jokes advising all the chosen ones on a more regular basis.

[Xantalos]

Oh, you don't have to worry about that.
Thanks to my eatings, I now know about the nervous system.
Gehehehehehehehe.

[Kestrel_6]

back after my second Cadets exercise interrupted my playing of this game!

jesus fucking christ this thread is indestructible!

[Xantalos]

Well, my overly complicated action is posted. If you need clarification, DZA, let me know.

[King DZA]

Haha, don't tempt me.

I'm not at all sure why you'd want to stop yourself. I mean, considering that I regularly see you on TV giving out useful advice to whole crowds of people already.

jesus fucking christ this thread is indestructible!

Damn straight.

Well, my overly complicated action is posted. If you need clarification, DZA, let me know.

If I'm understanding everything correctly, then basically you want TorZon to discreetly seek out and infiltrate the bodies of unsuspecting hospital patients, finagle its way into their cranial cavity, and then somehow hijack their nervous systems and start reading their memories by enveloping their brains in its own gooey self. Is that right?

[Xantalos]

And have them act as they regularly would by carrying out any 'normal' commands their brain gives the nervous system, excepting those that have to do with pain responses to TorZon taking over said nervous system, alerting people to pain responses, that sort of thing. Essentially, play it discreetly, and have the fragments travel all over the hospital to do this. Sorry if I didn't make the going all over the hospital part clear, but yeah that's good.

Oh man, it's awesome to be back in this thing. Note to self, hope that this action won't take too long.
...
Wait, did we agree that we were going to have a 'beginning the action, but it'll take a while' post if an action takes more than one update? I forget.
Also, I think this is suitable for an addition to your sig, DZA. The game, I mean.
If it's too much, you should take a post in the sig thread.

[King DZA]

Oh man, it's awesome to be back in this thing. Note to self, hope that this action won't take too long.

Nah. Certainly not near as long as your previous action took.

Wait, did we agree that we were going to have a 'beginning the action, but it'll take a while' post if an action takes more than one update? I forget.

Yep, I now acknowledge all actions that are posted in the update that follows them, even if just to let participants know that their actions will take more time to complete.

Also, I think this is suitable for an addition to your sig, DZA. The game, I mean.

I had sort of decided against doing so when I first created the game due to the fact that it wasn't originally intended to be anything more than a neat little experiment, but I suppose one could say this game has since then reached the required level of epic to be worthy of such a privilege. Perhaps a little later, when I feel like less of a procrastinating asshole, I shall go about making such an addition.

[Xantalos]

Ah, excellent!
...
Would it be too meta to include the approximate time the participant's action will be completed at in the notification action?
