Roll to !!Science!! Turn 1: 7s!
« on: June 10, 2011, 11:15:14 pm »

So, I had this idea. And then GlyphGryph pointed out Roll To Die. Consider this a version of that.

When you join, simply say you're in, and name any field of Science, SCIENCE!, or !!Science!! (includes fiction of course, but you'll need a different one if I don't know it and can't find anything about it.)

Here are the rules (almost all copied from GG's thread ;D)
- 5 people max. Possibly 6. Ended up with 7.
- 1 is critical failure, 6 is critical success, and the other numbers are everything in between.
- Your goal is to die, as fast as possible. Or ruin the universe into uninhabitableness, but that technically ends in a tie.
- You can't take actions in which a success would be fatal ( i.e. a suicide).
- You do gain experience. After performing the same type of action 3 times you get a +1 to all rolls in that action.
- You start with a level in Mad Scientist for your field. This is randomly -1 or +1 every turn.
- You cannot attack or deliberately hurt teammates or yourselves directly (includes sending your robothings straight after them. There are of course, ways around this.)
- Yes, Magitech is allowed, as long as you can explain how its more sciencey than magicky.
- The Three Laws of Robotics apply by default, unless you're good enough robot scientist to override them.

Guess I'll IN as Dr. SC specializing in wonky chemistry that does ridiculous things like make grenades that explode into sticky webs on impact.

Edit: Actually now that I think of it that's more like a gadget. So I'll do that instead then. ^^

Well, you do have a busy life, what with keeping tabs on wild, rough-and-tumble forum members while sorting out the drama between your twenty two inner lesbians.
Your drunk posts continue to baffle me.

Am I too late? Do I get to play, or do I end up on a waitlist?
