This game of Multiworld Madness has grown too large for me to handle. What would you have me do?

Muster up remaining strength and complete the current chapter. Bring the game to a logical close, then reboot it.
- 32 (37.2%)
Same as 1, but a whole new game will be started instead, still Multiworld, but no longer Madness.
- 9 (10.5%)
Get just this last turn done and reboot the game. No point wasting energy if updating takes so long.
- 31 (36%)
Get the last turn done and start a new game project.

Keeping my stylish headwear on for now, I touch the X on the panel.

Rooster, andrea, and chaoticag still in que for turn 1. (turn 0 was the first)
I started to wonder if my dice even had any numbers but the highest three this turn, until the last action... hehe.

Another rule addition, in regards to game continuation: Any player that fails to submit an action within 24 hours from the end of the last turn is put on AI status until the player reappears. AI players are controlled by the GM and will do the most basic things more or less in lieu with what the rest of the players are doing. After an AI player has remained AI for two turns, he is switched to kamikaze AI for the following turns, to ensure death and open a slot for others to use.

Jay, I rather meant the current turn, but yeah, yours too. :) Alright, two players to go.

Btw, despite my efforts to keep this civil, two people are naked after the firstmost turn. Wow. :P

That's just how these people work. They make the choices that are rather stupid really, but not quite stupid enough.

And who controls when they get naked, hmmm?

Says the guy who's about to do the Hulk trick without the benefit of stretchy shorts. :)

I guess the quantum stockpile of underwear was a sound idea after all. :P

edit: I've looked at how often Rooster appears on these boards...  I think it's safe to say we'll have an open slot in a few turns.

[6] You create three lists full of random people. You are 6th in the first, 28th in the second, and last in the third. You do not know which list is the open slot que. :P

6 hours till next turn.

You'll probably want to know about some more mechanics I'm planning for this game.
- Joint Effort: You can waste your own turn to help another player achieve his goal. The best of your rolls is taken as the action's result, and your individual rolls determine what happens to you in the process.

I suppose you could. But how do I read the dice then?

Alright, let it be like this:

Joint effort - you can waste your turn to help another player achieve his goal. If your roll is higher, it is counted as the action roll.
Getting in the way - you can also waste your turn trying to botch another player's action attempt. If your roll is higher, its opposite is counted as the action roll.
In both cases, yours and the target player's actions are carried out at the same time, and the individual player rolls determine what happens to the players during the action.

The "opposite" in the second case could get fun - if the player epic fails and you fail to botch him, the end result is an Epic Success. I guess it's the law of math - minus times minus equals plus. :)

Alright, only one player left. Seeing as the average post rate of Rooster is 0.19 posts a day, and his last message before the one in this thread was 4 days before that, I think it's safe to put him on autopilot already (and I know just the action to make him do), but I'll give him the benefit of doubt and wait until 20.00 my time, which is in an hour and a half.

Btw, I am genuinely suprised nobody cared to actually press one of the nine large yellow buttons on the panel. You put it through quite the suffering this turn, I gotta say. Yes, all your actions are already rolled and your fate is sealed. Sort of. :P

Also, can everyone tell me the gender of your characters? (yours will also do, hehe) Some of your names are rather ambiguous.
