Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

And, while I hate to do this, and I don't think that there is a way to prevent absent players:

PLAYERS WILL BE SELECTED BY THE ORDER IN WHICH THEY POST THEIR SHEETS, STARTING WITH THIS VERY SENTENCE.

And THIS is why I sometimes dislike my timezone... and sleeping "patterns".

PMed TURN: NOW WITH MORE GENIUS

Oh I pray for your sakes none of you have a hostile turn for me XD

PS EDIT: BTW, a big thanks to Tomcost! Firstly for being a kind and valuable ally for SCIENCE and for shouldering the burden of our morbid creativity by volunteering and becoming the new GM! Merry Christmas!

Tomcost, you should really start a new thread at this point.  Also, will I be eligible to play?

Give up, there's nothing that I, as a cloth doll lying on the floor, can do.

I will do so when:
a) I have my wordlist almost finished (I don't like to make people wait).
b) I think of a name.

I'm sorry if I'm cluttering this thread.

You will be eligible. Maybe you will have a prefered position in the waitlist, but just that.


And, about some sheets, the stats are still at 9.

You're not- I just thought it was odd to see sheets in this thread.

It was mainly because of the hype of the players.


I'm not going to take more waitlisters until I make a new thread, which I will post here. You may want to change your sheets once I set the rules for this, as some stats may be more important than they were before.

Well...what is going to be different between your game and the original Perplexicon?

Some things I would change if I redid this:

1. Your #1.
2. Nerf- or more likely outright remove- fullbody forms.
3. Not structure the wordlist like I did.  It was a good idea in theory but not in practice.
4. Better structure my "what is weak to what" list ahead of time.

Yes, there should be something more general in terms of weakness. If, say, arcane energy is weak to only one thing, then there is not a good probability of that thing being found. On the other hand, if there is a generic weakness, then it could be discovered and used with more flexibility.

The problem with fullbody forms was that there wasn't any weakness on many things. Yeah, you are made of metal, that's cool, but your joints shouldn't be able to bend so well now, effectively decreasing your dexterity.

When the temporary death-match is over before this thread dies someone PLEASE ask me what weaknesses I have found for most full-body spells...
Or you could take me on! I'll let you know of your weakness right then on the spot! ;D

I imagine that they are something like:
-Blackhole
-Blackhole
-Crystal
-Blackhole
-Arcane (or blackhole too)
-Silver
-Blackhole.

Keep this going until every possible combination can be countered by blackholes has a weakness.

Anyway:
