There's a PSA going around about how good CABL's music is.
TricMagic killed Doomblade187 and took over his kingdom.
Egan_BW burrowed into the Earth for a long nap.
Its now raining again.
Its November 1, 8:00 P.m.
Dustan Hache left the game so no action.
Yoink didn't post for the forth time so random action.
Smoke Mirrors didn't post for the second time so random action.

Just live there now helping people that Come to the fortress (unless they want help for evil deeds)
(Living in the fortress = 5) Everything's going good for you at the fortress, you and yourselves just hang around for the most part.
(Helping people that show up = 3) After several days one dude showed up and you give him directions back to his house, but other than that nothing happens.

Make a PSA advertising the high quality of CABL's music.
(5) You spend several minutes writing a PSA about CABL's music being the best, then you send it out all around the world.

Burrow into the earth's crust for a nice little 5 millenia nap.
(4) It takes a few minutes to get back to the Earth, then another couple of minutes of searching you find a nice cave and you go to sleep for quite a long time.

Declare War against Doomblade's Tyranny. Take the Fight to him, kill him, separate his soul and body, then seal the Soul in Pluto and the Body in Mercury. Seal Doomblade's Actions in the Moon, where he cannot reach them in any way. So long as I live, my power will contain them.

Dino's run a Peacekeeping Campaign extolling the virtues of TricMagic, bringing all dinosaurs of land, sea, & sky under my benevolent rule.(roll d6 for number of dino actions this turn.)

((Just going to mention that I'd wouldn't let this action use guaranteed 5's if Doomblade was still playing.))
(Declaring war on Doomblade = 5) It doesn't take much effort on your part to declare war on him, you just walk up to him and say we're at war now.
(Fighting him = 5) Then you immediately start punching him in the face with your magically enhanced fists before he can even do anything about it.
(Killing him = 5) You keep punching him until his host body dies which causes his true form to appear which is a ghost carrying its own severed head.
(Separating his soul and body = 5) It doesn't take much effort to separate his soul from his body since the body wasn't his to begin with.
(Sealing the soul in Pluto = 5) You then grab his ghostly soul and throw it all the way to Pluto where he smashes into the ground and becomes trapped deep underground.
(Sealing the body in Mercury = 5) Even though the body wasn't his and is now dead, you decide to get rid of it anyway, so you throw it all the way to Mercury where it slams into the surface and explodes into gore.
(Sealing his actions in the Moon = 5) You then seal his ability to do anything away from him in the center of the moon.
(Using power to contain them = 5) Then you expend some of your power to make powerful wards to trap the pieces of Doomblade trapped on the celestial bodies you threw them to.
(Dino's running a peacekeeping campain to bring all the dinosaurs together under your rule = 5) After some speeches from your Dino's they finally convince Doomblade's Dinos to join your group, this even includes the ones that would have stayed loyal to Doomblade mostly because they are afraid of what you could do to them after seeing what you did to him.
Your kingdom also gained all the materials, buildings, and research that Doomblade's kingdom had such as a working economy, stone coins, several stores to sell stuff from that are fully staked with workers, some Dino's can breathe air and water,  cotton farm with wall, Knowledge of how to make ink and paper,how to make playing cards, know how to play some card games including solitaire, go fish, black jack, Texas holdem and poker, knowledge of how to make alcohol,  a casino with dinosaurs working at it, tobacco farm with fence, knowledge of how to make cigarettes and cigars, a second casino with staff.
(Mining = 5) After a lot of work they mine out some more copper and stone.
(Building a public pool = 5) It takes a long time but they finally finish the indoor public pool.
(Building a school = 5) It takes a while to build but it turns out really good.
(Figuring out how to make paper = 5) They end up not having to do anything when they find out that Doomblade's dinos already figured it out.
(Figuring out how to make ink = 5) They didn't have to do anything here ether as it was already figured out by Doomblade's dinos.

Compose a song for the upcoming live tour, showcasing that we'll gonna go heavier in the next album.
(3+1 For recent PSA about your music) It takes a bit but you finally finish the song that showcases how much heavier your next songs will be.
You also hear a PSA about how good your music is which causes you ticket sales to skyrocket.

Expand, make more costumes, and make a flag for the UK.
(Continuing to Expand = 6) Your kingdom continues to expand with new stores and houses, but some of them are built on unstable ground and they collapses as soon as there finished.
(Making more costumes = 4) After a lot of work they finish making even more costumes.
(Making a flag = 3) You spend several minutes trying to make a flag, but none of them are really that good to you, looks like you'll have to keep messing with the design.

Sure. Why not.

> Establish a nation of beasts (mammals and marine life) to rival the saurian kingdom.
(Welcome back to this crappy game I'm running.)
(4) You wander around the big city gathering up random animals and bring them together into your kingdom, its not that big but its a start.

Quote from: Smoke Mirrors
Search around for any kind of threat to the Earth.
(5) After flying around the Earth several times you can't find any threat to the Earth its self just some small conflicts all over the place.

Quote from: Yoink
THE PARTIES NOT OVER YET, KEEP IT GOING.
(3) Even though you tried to save the party its starting to die off.

Quote from: Outsider The Kamen rider
Keep looking for crime to fight.
(Fighting crime = 5) After along time spent wandering around you finally find a crime to stop, after a short fight you keep the thief from stealing the old woman's purse, then you take criminal to the cops so he can be arrested.
(Lizard thing helping = 3) It only finds some rats stealing some corn from a store to stop.

Quote from: The_Two_Eternities The Captain of Halloween
Continue with the looting of the city.
(You looting = 2+2 For lots of loot) After some searching you find some valuable stuff to take.
(Your crew looting = 6-1 For no cops) They find a whole bunch of valuable stuff.

Quote from: Ama the werewolf
Me and the other werewolves will go explore the mine.
(Ama exploring = 4) After a bit of exploring the mine you find a temple hidden deep within the mine.
(Original werewolf friends exploring = 6) They disturb some zombies that were sleeping in the temple.
(Werewolf friends exploring = 1+2 For being a group) They don't find anything or do anything interesting.

NPC stuff:
Quote from: Dustan Hache's kingdom
Keep everything running.
(5) There's no trouble at Dustan's kingdom everything's going just fine.

Quote from: Yoink's small army of volunteers
Do some random stuff.
(Stuff = 4) They keep having fun even thought the parties slowing down.
(Stuff = 3) They stopped having fun awhile ago.

Dino actions, so many dinos~


And yes, figured that since an active player could tip the scale themselves. Having a 5 as the base would have made it a lot more successful though. The Tyrant is dead!
