RW: Go up to the pedestal and examine it in more detail.

FW: Get off of the ship and Put on me land legs. Also put kitty down.

[monk12]

Meta: DECK TWO

Fantasy: Help Frelock. If the natives do not worship the volcano, begin preaching about the infinite wrath of the volcano.

And with that, I'm off for the weekend. Don't wait up!

[HighEndNoob]

Meta: Drive in a circle
Fantasy: Yell at the noble to heal my leg again, than brace for impact

[_DivideByZero_]

Meta: Go and apply discipline to Kyle for this disregardful of the chain of command. You do not wrap your sergeant's head in gauze!
Fantasy: Heal Kyle then... uh... don't hammer myself for not fulfilling the mandate.

[Gatleos]

I had to leave for a while at the same time monk did. Seems the universe temporarily stopped the game for him.

Turn soon!

[Dermonster]

Oh no everyone panic, we haven't heard anything about this in a half-day or two. Quick there is only one thing to do, and that's to run around in circles, while we scream in fear about the end of the world. That of course is the proper panic maneuver. Of course while that one thing is the correct thing to do, there is of course alternatives, but I hesitate to even say them. One alternative is of course the non-screamer panic method of curling up into the fetal position, and muttering in a language only you can understand. Some people though prefer the proactive panic method, and for your knowledge that is the method that involves making sacrifices in an effort to appease the powers that be. In this particular case, the sacrifice will of course have to be the sacrifice of a sentient being that is dear to you, such as a son or daughter. There is of course the play it cool panic method of putting on a pair of shades, and just putting on an air about yourself that says "I'm to cool to panic" but this can only be pulled off by the ultra-cool, and in this particular case you'll likely have to also have to do something extra like do a rap about how you are so not the type to panic.

Lastly there is of course the bumping panic method, that I am doing right now. I've claimed this method in this panic instance, so you can't panic in this way. But for future instances, it involves bumping the thread in the hopes of getting an update. After I finish this method, I'll then fall back on the primary method of running around in circles screaming about the end of the world.

If I have forgotten a standard panic method, then I apologize as clearly I'm in such a state as to not be able to recall them all.

[Gatleos]

If I didn't know any better, I'd say I went to the same place as monk at the same time. Or it's just a coincidence. Either way, he screwed you over. Hee hee.

Current Soundtrack

Actions

Meta: Use uncanny prediction to predict what would happen if we got all 5 players near the pedestal.  Help round up other players.

(...) If all of you were to gather in the room, you have a feeling something would open. You try to get Monk to come into the room, but he runs down the hall before you can catch him!

RW: Go up to the pedestal and examine it in more detail.

(...) There isn't much on the face of the pedestal, just five LED lights surrounding a small hatch. Four of the lights are lit for a moment, then one goes out when Frederick leaves the room after Monk.

Meta: DECK TWO

(...) You begin running down the hall toward the elevator!

Meta: Drive in a circle

(...) You make a pathetic attempt at doing donuts on your floor buffer.

Meta: Go and apply discipline to Kyle for this disregardful of the chain of command. You do not wrap your sergeant's head in gauze!

(...) Kyle starts driving in circles, and you can't catch him!

Current Soundtrack
Clock Town - Day 2 Redux

Actions

Fantasy: Find volcano-worshiping natives, and barter with them to sell the mayor off as a sacrifice for their fiery god.

(...) You extend the gangplank and walk onto the dock, then approach the dock master.
Frelock: "So, you natives worship the volcano? We have brought you a sacrifice, the mayor of Westport!"
Dock Master: "Natives? We are no natives, this is the city of Helmath! Did you just say something about a sacrifice?"
Frelock: "N-no, nothing like that! We-"
Dock Master: "Wait, what was that you said about a mayor?"

FW: Get off of the ship and Put on me land legs. Also put kitty down.

(...) You begin to walk toward the gangplank. Suddenly, a seagull flies by and snatches the kitty out of your hands! It's flying away!

Fantasy: Help Frelock. If the natives do not worship the volcano, begin preaching about the infinite wrath of the volcano.

(...)
Edgar: "Is there a problem here?"
Dock Master: "I'm gonna have to search that ship right away. Check for contraband."
Edgar: "Oh, that won't be necessary!"
Frelock starts making a slashing motion across his throat with his left hand behind the dock master's back.
Edgar: "See, all we've got up there is the mayor of Westport! We were wondering if you could do with a sacrifice-"
Dock Master: "What?! Guards! Guards!"
Frelock facepalms.

Fantasy: Yell at the noble to heal my leg again, than brace for impact

(...) You hold onto the mast of the ship, bracing for impact! The ship gracefully glides next to the dock and Frelock extends the gangplank. So you decide to yell at DivideByZero some more.

Fantasy: Heal Kyle then... uh... don't hammer myself for not fulfilling the mandate.

(...) Your medical knowledge doesn't seem to be enough. You get a little more experience, but can't seem to fix it.

[monk12]

Ok, I'm back. Thanks universe, the game may continue now!

FAKEEDIT: DAYUM, that was fast.


Meta: To the pedestal! Hopefully it won't open us up to the cold vacuum of space

Fantasy: Find the highest building in town, then load my grappling hook in my harpoon gun and use it to climb to the very top.

[Frelock]

Meta: Get back in the room with the hatch and pedestal.

Fantasy: Convince the guard that we are all just harmless lunatics, and when we say "mayor" we actually mean "mayo"

[HighEndNoob]

Meta: More evasive-donuts!
Fantasy: Load the gun, than shoot the Seagull for the might of humans/keepers everywhere!

[_DivideByZero_]

Meta: Keep chasing him. Don't give up! He needs discipline!

RW: Spider, get the others and drag them here, if you would.

(...) The mecha-spider attempts to catch Frederick, but he jumps out of the way.

Meta: To the pedestal! Hopefully it won't open us up to the cold vacuum of space

(...) You have second thoughts, and walk back to the pedestal room.

Meta: Get back in the room with the hatch and pedestal.

(...) You dodge the mecha-spider and fall flat on your face. Luckily, you were already in the doorway and part of you is still inside the room.

Meta: More evasive-donuts!

(...) You perform a wicked donut and make a flaming trail on the floor! (...) John jumps over the flaming tire buffer tracks and lunges at you!

Meta: Keep chasing him. Don't give up! He needs discipline!

(...) You leap over the flames and grab onto Kyle, then proceed to backhand him. The floor buffer topples and you both go flying across the room, landing in a heap.

A small hatch on the pedestal opens, revealing a SHINY RED BUTTON!

Clock Town - Day 2 Redux

Actions

FW: THE SEAGULL WILL BURN. Catch kitty.

(...) The kitten and seagull explode spectacularly in midair, sending a shower of burning flesh in every direction!
Kitty Shrapnel?!

• dermonster: (...) The kitty's head flies past you, and you dodge it easily.
• Frelock: (...) A wad of flaming seagull innards whizzes toward your head, and you effortlessly move out of the way.
• monk12: (...) You hardly notice the guts raining down around you as you walk off to the town.
• HighEndNoob: (...) Enraged, you jump to your feet and swing your musket at the seagull's flying torso! (...) The spinning ‼seagull torso‼ strikes the Dwarf Noble in the head, bruising the eye and bruising the brain! Urist tumbles over the railing!
• _DivideByZero_: (...) You leap into the air to dodge a shower of kitty parts, and a burning seagull torso smacks into your face! You fly over the railing and belly-flop into the ocean.
• Dock Master: (...) A smoldering beak embeds itself in the Dock Master's eye! He writhes in pain and falls off the dock.

Fantasy: Find the highest building in town, then load my grappling hook in my harpoon gun and use it to climb to the very top.

(...) At the center of the town square, you see a clock tower. Loading your grappling hook into the harpoon gun, you run to the base of the tower and fire the grappling hook to the top! As the harpoon gun begins to retract the rope, you realize this probably wasn't a very good idea. The harpoon gun retracts far faster than you expected, catapulting you high above the clock tower!

Fantasy: Convince the guard that we are all just harmless lunatics, and when we say "mayor" we actually mean "mayo"

(...) The guard is underwater right now. Maybe you can talk to that nice group of guards coming toward you!

Fantasy: Load the gun, than shoot the Seagull for the might of humans/keepers everywhere!

(...) No more seagull. You fire a shot into the air anyway.

Fantasy: Hmm. Yell at him for getting injured like that then try to fish again.

(...) Well, you're in the right place to fish. A swordfish swims by and you bear hug the life out of it! Now thar's a fish!

I'll have to think of a system for using multiple spells in a single turn.

Also wheres noobs kitty shrapnel damage?

He smacked it into _DivideByZero_ because he rolled a six. I forgot to put the roll in there though...
