Both, and more. We shouldn't bother with the small things. Unless it's HIS small thing. We need to bring out the big guns; Fast, Flashy, Driving Straight Through. This is how we must play the game! Overwhelm them with the sheer horribleness that is life, and let it run it's course. On a balance, bad things are much more plausible and infinitely more powerful than good things. We should use this to our advantage, pushing disaster after disaster onto Bruce before his little mind explodes with rage, grief, and the weight that is the Failure of Life!

Deep.

Too bad you're going to lose, PANCAKES.

It's fine, It's fine. Take all the time in the world. I'll work on balancing us out and countering their efforts. Fail on, Brother Taric.

Oh, and Krath? Keep thinking like that while you can. Even if you give our friend Bruce all the pancakes in the world, his life will still burn as horribly as I intend. *insert evil laughter here*

INITIATIVE
choobakka: 44
Krath: 34
Dwarmin: 43

Taricus: 3
wolfchild: 51
Talarion: 52

TURN 1/25

Bruce and Tina arrive at the party to find it in full swing. They split up for awhile so Bruce can speak to the President of GenCorp, JK Woodward. (Talarion: Difficult Event=4: 4) Tina socializes with Bruce's coworkers and ends up talking to a charming younger man named Drew. (wolfchild: Medium Event=3: 2) The drinks are kept in bottles and poured directly to the glasses as this is a fancy party; no chance for spiking the drinks unfortunately. (Choobakka: Medium Event=3: 5) For a corporate party, this is lively! Everyone's having a good time. (Dwarmin: Medium Event=3: 2) Tina is quite taken with Drew and begins flirting openly. No one notices them head to the coat room, or come out an hour later. (Krath: Easy Event=2: 5) Bruce and JK are on friendly terms, and JK made sure to order a few bottles of Merlot for his VP. Bruce enjoys himself thoroughly.

(Taricus: Difficult Event=4: 4) Back home, the babysitter takes her eye off of Anna, giving the mischievous young girl a chance to get into her parent's medicine cabinet and cut herself on her dad's razors! Fortunately the bleeding isn't too bad, but the babysitter still has a hard time explaining what happened to Mr. and Mrs. Halford when they get home, and most certainly will not be hired again. >:(

TEAM SUCCESS: 5 points
TEAM FAILURE: 4 points

NOTES: Team Failure has sleeper event 'Wife having an affair' in play; it is worth 4+0 points at the moment.

Congratulations Team Failure, not even one turn in and you've already humiliated the babysitter and set Bruce up for a fall later on, assuming Tina doesn't get busted. :p As for Team Success, good work in general, congrats on having the lead so early. ^^

-------------------------------------------------------------

2nd half of January - Halford Residence situation

Anna has developed an infection from her cuts, but otherwise nothing is wrong with Bruce's life - that he knows about.

Tina and Drew will continue talking, but only in places that seem casual and where Bruce cannot find out. Meanwhile, there will be numerous jams and failures in the manufacturing of GenCorp.

@Wolfchild: Very Tactful, sad that it failed.

Man, it's going to be hard to keep that kid alive. :/

And is it wrong I''m already considering killing the wife+friend? At least at which point, it would be less devastating than him finding out they were cheating with each other.

Also, this turn you should defend the company Choobaka. DEFEND THE COMPANY!

Bruce buys some over the counter baby medicine from a nearby corner store that clears up daughters infection nicely!

EDIT: Do Talarions action count as a double? He's trying to blow up the company and progress the cheating relationship at the same time. Or can sleeper events be manipulated seperate from your current turn?

It's an infected wound, not a fever. Fever might be a symptom, but such a simple action will only clear it for now. It'll get much worse in the future... and I probably shouldn't be counceling my enemies, but YOUR LOGIC IS FLAWED! I must point out how evilly evil we are. Engaging cocky, self-righteous evil genius mode. Apologies in advance for the commencing evilness.

Talarion can talk about the sleeper event all he wants, but if he springs it then it'll override any other actions he posts. ^^ I'm only counting the factory for his event; basically I'M running the sleeper event until one team tries it.

Ooh okay then. Interesting. Are we allowed to try and counter their attempts to spring it?

Yes indeed. When you counter it you can choose to either spring it yourself or keep it hidden. >.> I'd better add that to the rules.

Go ahead and ask me questions, sometimes I forget to do stuff like that. ^^;
