Backstory:

It is the year 20XX. The convenient replacement for Other Forum Members (hereby referred to as "Those Dang Newbies") has filled up all the slots in a relatively small RtD. This has alarmed the convenient metaphor for The Other Other Forum Members ("us"), who have sent a varying number of would-be operatives to wait in a line and a strange waiting room. Their mission?

TO GET INTO THE GAME.

Pain will not stop you. Lack of resources will not stop you. Morality will not stop you. All these things will merely make you stronger. You will not rest, and you will not be given rest until The Game is joined.

Starting location: A featureless, bland room with six bored people. The bored people will contain many destructive and useless ideas. After this new volunteers will be accepted as old ones... drop away. Maximum silliness is strictly enforced.

New Rule Discovered! Pre-Waiting List People Can Choose From A List Of Actions.

The list is, as follows:

1. Do nothing [Cost: -1 AP, autosuccess]
2. Shift own priority [Cost: 1 per position, can fail]
3. Shift other priority [Cost: 2 per position, can fail]
4. Secure own priority [Cost: 1, cannot fail]
5. Attempt escape [Cost: 3, can fail, can be fatal]

Y'all start with 3 AP, out of a maximum of 3. Idling is the only way to regenerate AP. Since you weren't aware of the risks before this, I won't start taking in actions before next turn.
