Meh, would have happened eventually.  That hunter was just too buffed up (I mean, +1 to dodge, +3 to accuracy rolls, -2 to death rolls, +2 to quick thinking rolls, and the police and hunters at his command?  I know the game's supposed to be unfair, but the guy was practically invincible).

Oh, it's easy enough to kill them. You just never face them head on. You snipe them, you trap them, but you never let them get the drop on you. Because if they get the drop on you, they fuck you up, and if they screw up, the backup Hunters are waiting.

By the time the Head Hunter is taking shots at you, you're pretty much fucked unless you get GODLY rolls. The trick is to kill him, because there's only one Head Hunter a game.

Are you not impressed by my amazing bio?

I've played some mafia.

Most of the time when someone is described as politically correct they are simply correct.

No, not commiting suicide, sorry.   ...Through that money is rather tempting...

Picked it up from a little old lady who helped me out :D .  I was going to take it to the games building, but made the mistake of going back to my apartment for my suit.  Taking it with me and using it in case of imminent death was the extra action I amended.

To the next batch of players, I say-

Make peace with the fact that your not in control of anything. If you try to think of this as a competitive game that you can "win", you'll get angry when Little nukes you. You'll enjoy the game more when you realize this. I know I did  ;D

I was going to but got sidetracked.

Name: Nist Carpath (I just finished reading Nist Akath today, and need something, so it's a semi-tribute)
Age: 46
Gender: M
Height: 5'7
Weight: (generic)
Health/Mental Defects or Conditions:
Unstoppable grudge bordering on insanity against 'Sudsy'(If it matches a real company, it was not intentional) and all who use it/may be using it/have used it(See Occupation)
Occupation(or former occupation if currently unemployed):
Soap maker(Created/ran a soap factory until ran out of buisness. Got plenty of excersise keeping it running with few other employees. Ran out of buisness when 'Sudsy' moved in with it's fully automated were-barely-making-a-profit factory across the street last year)
Reason for joining The Running Man:
Vengeance funds.
Plus vengeance on those supporting them, as 'Sudsy' is popular among police and others in the upper-class for their quality line, and the lower classes for their economy line.
Other/Bio:
Um, none? (If this app doesn't work out, I may add something here, if I can think of anything suitable)

I, Nist Carpath, officially want to join The Running Man and have signed liability forms 3-B, 4-C and 5-E. Note that at the conclusion of signing these forms, you are bound to them until you have been booted from the application progress or have completed your duration on the show.

Name: Blake Raln
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Height: 5'10
Weight:180 lbs
Health/Mental Defects or Conditions: Paranoia, ADHD, and borderline OCD
Occupation(or former occupation if currently unemployed): Former engineer
Reason for joining The Running Man: Wants to get therapy, get out of the slums
Other/Bio: Blake was a rising star in the science world, having a great head for numbers, and inventions, promising to make quite a few weapons for the police state if things had gone well. Unfortunately, he got addicted to push, and his life spiraled out of control. A case of mild paranoia developed, causing him to always look over his shoulder and spend quite a few hours plotting out whatever he was going to do in any situation, sometimes leading to a lack of sleep. By the time his life had hit rock bottom, he'd been fired, and had no skills for down in the underbelly he'd never belonged to. Then he heard about the running man, and he felt that if he could finish it, he could get out, and stick it to the man, who was out for him. Or he would die, but he figured, since he was likely to die anyway, what difference did it make.

((hope I can still get in. and hope this works too.))

I suspect you've never tried doing many illegal things yet in your game. The second the CCS knows you're "active", they'll come down on you like the hammer of God.

Imagine a combination of power goals 44 and 45: The ruler convenes a council of the nobles to appoint you the high priest of the nearby towns. Instead of waiting for them to finish their drinking session, you walk in and crush a goblet while berating their disgusting behaviour and general incompetence.
