Solution: stop the wheel from turning.

Hmm.

The emperor's wheel ticks by somewhat faster, as if he was thinking.
(penguinofhonor)
Circular logic is banned in the court. Punishable by... something other than death. Boring.
(Xantalos)
So you seek compensation... As far off of an answer that was, it actually fit the puzzle. Go on then.
(Greenstarfanatic)
You've given me a short term answer... You did not seek an answer until I questioned, yes? I'll give you one more try...
(Doomblade187/Yoink)
Violence is such a dire thing to behold...

The Emperors arms extend grotesquely, revealing a multitude of wheels just like the one on his head but much smaller! They begin spinning at incredible speed before the Emperor strikes Doomblade and Yoink, grinding them into a paste!


You took an accepted answer by luck. The answer was "purpose", or "a reason to exist".
The emperor took the answer that Xantalos gave in a Freudian manner, which, in turn, gave the answer-er a purpose. To compensate. Well done.

The reward? Ah yes. It's roughly 8.777 rooms of more tasks for you to complete, and, then, something you'd consider a reward, possibly.

Note that I'll reuse a similar room when this is made, but not this exact one. Not the same question either. Psycho immortal statue emperor of the lost (object) tribe? Yes.

We actually have an RTD Testing thread by Draignean. I suggest using that, it was very useful.

Yeah sure why not. I lost half of the update earlier due to black magic, so I'll have to rewrite that. I'd rather have you just bump the thread than jump out at me here, though.

Oh... Sorry. :-[ Didn't mean anything by it, I was just excited and it wouldn't usually occur to me to bump the thread.
I guess I'll do that in future.

Okay, next idea:

The Great Interstellar Artifact Hunt - An RTD of Corporate Competition

The idea of the game is such - you play not as human beings, but as evil/greedy/altruistic/visionary/pragmatic/etc. corporate entities of interstellar proportions bent on finding ancient abandoned (or not entirely abandoned, or not entirely ancient, or not entirely either) alien installations and ransacking them as much as possible for any useful knick-knacks and gewgaws to further your own unethical/visionary/profitable research in order to realize your evil/greedy/altruistic/visionary/pragmatic corporate agenda or ideology, if applicable.

Spoiler: Corporation Sheet (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Research (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Victory Conditions (click to show/hide)

Okay, I just typed this up and it seems ridiculously complicated. What do you guys think? I'm not sure this should be an RTD at all, to tell the truth. It would definitely be enough to drive a normal GM crazy, keeping reliable track of all that information. It would be like Einsteinian Roulette on a different scale, but more lethal for the individual personnel members.

Once again, this idea is not one I am likely to realize in the near future. Any that want it are free to grab it.

I have another space RTD idea.

You see, beyond the reaches of human-populated space, there is the Dark Nebula of Peril. Why do they call it the Dark Nebula of Peril, you ask? The answer is quite simple, actually. The reason the Dark Nebula of Peril is called the Dark Nebula of Peril rather than, say, the Nice Nebula of Pretty Lights and Philosophical Contemplation is, to put it simply, you. Why? Well...

You Are All Horrible Space Monsters, Man!

Yes, that is indeed the truth. You are all space monsters that dwell in the horrid, terrible reaches of the Dark Nebula of Peril. Why are you there, you might ask? That's a very good question. You see, it all started with a technologically advanced race of smartass aliens that decided to experiment with things they really shouldn't. To make a long story short, you are the result - evil nanobots, space vampires, sentient parasitic bacteria, doppelganger aliens, malevolent electromagnetic phenomena, highly playful extradimensional beings and many, many more. After having your own brand of fun with all the silly alien buggers (and then eating them or depositing them in a safe spot for the more boring days), you are now largely bored and alone in the Dark Nebula of Peril (sadly a frequent consequence of being highly successful at what you do).

Fortunately, in the last couple of thousand years, aliens of many races have achieved successful FTL space travel. They have also developed an unhealthy fascination with Dark Nebulas of Peril the entire galaxy over. And the best part is, they send you steel-wrapped presents all the time! How amazing! You guess you should return the favor someday. Maybe take a ride on one of said presents back to them and have fun in their houses as well! Oh, it should be absolutely delightful there! If only your friends in the Nebula didn't always get in the way...



Okay, here's the idea - you are a space monster of your choice. You are powerful. You are sentient. You are bored! You need something fun/productive/*untranslatable* to do! And sentient visitors are the only thing that qualify as such, sadly. They occasionally arrive, looking to investigate the Dark Nebula of Peril, at which point the Race Phase begins. The Race Phase is the point in the RTD when the respective space monsters in a particular sector of the Nebula (the current players) trip over themselves (and each other) trying to be the first to take over the hapless alien visitors to the Nebula and use them to visit places outside the Nebula comfortably and without issue.

Of course, you could band together, forming some kind of Space Monster League of Evil and head to the hapless alien worlds all together. Your choice. I would love to see a Space Monster road trip through populated alien space, myself.

Now, be warned. Aliens are unlikely to take this sort of treatment sitting down. They may possibly figure out your Secret Weakness (sent in PM), they might prove victorious over your mind control with the Power of Love, really, depending on the particular race, anything can happen. But that's where the *fun* truly is, you know.

Finally, don't forget to *enjoy the sauce*.
