I'm assuming every stat starts at 1 and then you add 20 more points, because that's how the Perplexicon test and the anime fighting game went.

((So, we basically have 28 points instead of 20, or am I wrong?))The 1's that start in the stats can't be moved. Stats just start at 1 rather then 0.

Ouch. But yeah, when I say break, that is sort of what I mean. Not that the system can't handle it, but that any character with a 0 is just useless, for whatever reason :P

Ok, so in this game, one thing I'm gonna ask you guys to do is to post your character sheet with your actual action post. That way, I don't have to keep a separate character list, the info will always be there and easy to track between turns, and if I fuck something up, you'll be easily able to call me on it.
Oh, and if any youse guys put 0's as stats instead of 1's, change dat shit. Yo. P dog in the house. Etc.
Looks like we have our 8 starters, lets get this rolling.

Charsheet when I'm not drugged and tired.
Don't worry, just a nightly prescription to help with my super tense muscles, may cause dizziness and or drowsiness; the colored lines are an effect of the drowsiness and not of the drugs, trust me, I get those even without drugs.
Edit: That gives me an idea for a character. Might not wait until morning afterall.

As you know, our contestants are split into two teams, the BLUE BARBARIANS and the RED RAVAGERS! Our first contestant is on the blue team, He gestures at the first man in the line, his name is Cromwell, and he came here to Die a beautiful death. The host looks back at Cromwell and smiles even wider. What an admirable cause and a wonderful dream.
Next, on the red team, is Allen. Allen wants to murder is friends and never work again. A simple dream, but one I think we can all understand.
After Him, on the blue team, is Larry. He's here because he wants money for his cousin. Oh, how despicably dull.
Then, we have Mason, on the blue team. He wants to be a Magistar. Oh, such lofty ambitions. Such dreams of power. The Host's smile fades to a slight grin and his eyes grow wide as he glares at Mason. A man could do anything he wanted as a Magistar. No law, no social boundaries, no gods or reprisals. I wonder what this man would do in the privacy of his palace. And who he'd do it to. The smile snaps back like a beartrap being sprung.
Next, red team's Navarro. He wants a robot. What a simple thing he is.
Then, Piecewise on blue. What a familiar name. Hmm
After that, Magarth, on red. He wants, He double checks the card, Cabbage. Well. To each their own.
And last, we have Kriellya, our only female contestant this episode. She's here to escape her debts. Well, my dear, The host leans in close, with a distressing glint in his eye, There are always ways for a woman to make some money. But we're glad you chose us.
The host steps away, walking in his strange, scarecrow way toward the central camera.
When we return, it will be time for the first part of the show, the Team Challenge! Stay tuned!

Welcome back! The host shouts as the camera pans down and away from his face and toward a large, rectangular arena divided in half by black line painted on the floor. One half has been painted red, the other blue, and the corresponding teams are stationed in their color coded half. Placed carefully on the center line are 5 balls; one white, one red, one blue, one yellow, one black. 10 foot tall metal walls enclose the arena, and a cross shaped, clear plastic walkway hangs overhead. The host stands at the center of this walkway, arms spread in a wide, inviting gesture toward the stacked rows of audience members looking down into the arena from their seats.
Now, I'm sure you all know the rules already, but lets explain it to the contestants, just in case they've forgotten. Each contestant has what we call a Shackle. It's that black device on their hand. And oh, what a wonderful device it is. Not only is it a wonderful, multifunctional weapon that they can chose to use at any time to gain an advantage, but it also keeps track of how many points they've won so far! But of course, there's a catch. Firing the weapon costs points! He places his hands on his cheeks in an exaggerated expression of distress. And whats more, we don't tell them what the weapon does! All they know is that there's a trigger for each of their fingers, and that using them in different combinations does different things! Or maybe nothing at all. What fun!
Of course, Before they can use it, they have to get some points! And thats where these games come in. Today we're playing a fan favorite: Maul-Ball! A modified version of that hold schoolyard standby, dodgeball. But our version is a bit different, for reasons our contestants shall soon discover. Now, as always, the winning team will be granted 1 point each. The third place will be granted 2, the second 3 and the first place will get 5 points AND a prize! Such bounty! But the first one eliminated, oh, what misfortune! That unfortunate contestant will have to play a penalty game. But enough talk, lets get down to the action!
The camera pans down to look at the two teams, lines of colored men standing near the back wall, ready to run forward and grab the balls.
On your, mark! Get set! GO!

I'm considering instating some manner of betting system where the audience can place bets on contestants and, once they have enough money from doing the bets, spend it on things that effect the game, such as getting game modes implemented, or adding items to the vending machines (which you haven't seen yet) or buying a gun to shoot at the contestants if they get annoyed with them. You know, give people in the wait list or who aren't playing something to do.

(( PW, that sounds ridiculous. Clearly something this gameshow would have, then XD
So, does that mean the 'penalty game' is unavoidably lethal? Or are 'episodes' defined differently? ))
Oh no, the penalty game is very much survivable. In fact, they're designed not to kill straight now. Whats the fun in that?
No, after the penalty game for the loser, there's the individual challenge in which each side must choose one person to compete against each other in a mystery challenge. And then we tally up the points and the person with the lowest number of points is, well, you can guess the rest. The fun comes when there's a tie for lowest.
Sounds like fun.
Let's do that.
I agree completely.
Alrighty then. I'll draw up that system today and probably have it ready by next turn or before. Really just gotta think of things that can be altered or bought and set the prices. Simple enough.
Post by: piecewise on April 10, 2014, 04:41:47 pm
1. Say you want to be part of the audience. You can be part of the audience as long as you're not actually playing as a contestant.
2.Now you can bet. Betting is done with Deadman Dollars. You get 1d10 worth of them per episode. So you can get between 1-10, depending on chance, at the start of each episode or whenever you sign up to be part of the audience. You keep track of your own cash, but be warned, if someone points out that you have more then you should have, the bookies will come break your kneecaps and take all your money.
THE BETS
Survival:Bet that a particular contestant will survive the episode.Bets must be placed by the time the team challenge begins. 1.5x pay out.
Winner:That a particular contestant will be the winner of either the Team challenge or the individual challenge. Bets for team have to be placed by the time the team challenge begins. Bets for individual begin when the participants are chosen and close when the competition begins. 3X payout for team, 2X payout for individual.
Loser: Similar to winner, but bet on who will lose Team or individual challenges. 2X payout for team, 1.5 for individual.
Eliminated: Bet on who will be eliminated by the end of the episode. Must be placed before team challenge begins. 5X pay out.
What you can buy:
1. Items for yourself or contestants:
10 Deadman Dollars are worth 1 point or charge (Point and charge mean the same thing, they're used interchangably). You can convert your money into points to use to buy things from the same vending machine as the contestants. These items can be given to the contestants (via throwing them into the arena) or used by you to effect the games. Note: Sometimes an audience member may be brought in to participate in the game in some way. It can be used then too.
2.Adding items to the store
You can add an item to the contestant store by paying twice the cost it would be to buy it from the store once it is added. This is handled per item, of course, so talk to the show coordinators between episodes to set it up.
3.Transferring points
You can turn your Deadman Dollars into points at any time and transfer them to any contestant you want at any time.
4.Carry them over into the game
If you join the show, going from audience member to contestant, half your money is converted into points for use while you're a contestant.
5.New Game Types
For a price, audience members can get new types of event added to the show or modify the rules or items used in current games. Handled on a situational basis, talk to a show coordinator between episodes to set it up.
6.Bribes
Maybe...maybe you want something to happen in a show? Maybe you want to someone to catch a bad break, for instance? For the right amount of money, who knows what a stage hand might be willing to set up for the right price. Though, you should probably talk to them in secret (pm).

Spoiler: rolls (click to show/hide)
An air horn sounds as soon as The Host shouts go, and the teams spring into action. Navarro and Larry break into dead sprints, charging ahead of their teammates toward the center line with their hands greedily extended. They reach for the balls, but as they grasp them, they over shoot the line and start to step into the opposing team's area. The entire center black line jerks violently up into the air, a metal plate on powerful hydraulics, and catches the over eager contestants on the chin. They go tumbling backwards as the center line jerks back into place and the balls-bounced up with the line-go rolling. Kriellya runs in, jumps over larry's prone body, and scoops up the black ball before turning around and running back into the far end of blue's area. Piecewise, in no appreciable hurry, saunters over and picks up the blue ball. He holds it up by his head a moment, picking his target, and then hurls it at Navarro, who is still scrambling to get up. The instant the ball leaves piecewise's hands and passes the center divider, its round surface separates into dozens of small, hexagonal metal plates. The instant the ball makes contact with Navarro, the plates touching him jerk violently forward, sending him tumbling head over heels and the ball flying off in the opposite direction and smashing into a wall near Kri on the far side of the blue zone.
OH! It looks like we have our loser! It's Navarro of the Red Ravagers, taken out by the blue impact ball! Tough break Navarro.
Navarro, surprisingly unhurt by being flung across the room like a stone across a pond, gets solemnly to his feet and leaves via a door in the back corner of his zone.
While all this is happening, Allen gets his feet tangled at the start and face plants onto the hard metal floor, Magarth seems stands stock still and stone faced, Mason tries to run serpentine and just makes a hard right turn into the wall, and Larry just barely manages to scramble to his feet after that hydraulic uppercut.
The black ball is in Kriellya's hands, while the blue and white are on blue's side. Yellow and Red are on the Red side, but so far remain unclaimed.
Audience
A conspicuous man in flowing red robes, sitting on the extreme end of the red side of the field, shouts in a high, keening voice:You get 10 whole Deadman dollars!

Grab the WHITE ball and throw it at a RED guy, then retreat into the BLUE side.

The BLU ball is still at my feet? Grab it and throw it at whichever RED is closest to a ball!
"This all feels familiar. And too easy. I bet this will make a great RTD when I win!"
Magarth breaks his trance and sprints forward, scooping up the red ball and continuing on toward the line. He hurls the ball mid-run, the red sphere streaking across the center line straight toward Piecewise. As it travels, its surface shifts and splits, revealing rows of sharp spikes hidden beneath it's seemingly harmless, bouncy exterior. Piecewise, who looks to be lost in thought, catches a glancing blow to his chest, spikes carving straight through his jumpsuit and digging gashes into his flesh. He staggers of the playing field holding the profusely bleeding, though not life threatening wounds.
Allen and Kriellya both take several steps forward and, almost in perfect unison, hurl their balls at each other. Kri's ball sails over Allen in a lazy arc and thuds into the far wall, where it then detonates like a hand grenade, but fails to injure anyone. Allen's Yellow ball clips Kri in the left shoulder, barely grazing her but staying in contact just long enough to leave her laying on the ground, spasming from the electrical discharge it just unloaded into her. Stage hands drag her off the field.
Larry, his nose bleeding profusely, leaps back to his feet and sweeps up the white ball, which is laying nearest to him. As his teammates go down around him, he searches for a target and decides on Cromwell. He gives his ball a hard, two handed toss, straight at Crom's head. Cromwell, rather then trying to leap to the side, instead seems to try and do some manner of frontflip, hurling himself forward while spazzing his legs like a bicyclist having a stroke. He's about halfway through his ill-advised gymnastics when the ball just hits him and bounces off; it is apparently nothing more then ordinary rubber. Cromwell almost makes his flip, but just lands hard on is back, knocking the air out of his lungs and himself out of the game.
Mason, finding himself rather alone on the far end of the blue zone, picks up the yellow ball and tries to keep Larry between himself and the Red team.
The white ball is on the red side, while the Red, Yellow and Blue are on the Blue side. The black ball has exploded.
OH MY! What a flurry of action! Three more players have been taken out! The teams are now even, with two on each! We're almost down to the top three! It looked like Piecewise was the only one to sustain any sort of real injury though. The host shakes his head. I'm disappointed! Surely our contestants can do better then that!

((I'm still in the game? All I've done is run into a wall and fail to get a ball, and now I have one? As long as I don't drop it on my foot, this should be good. Even if I do, that would be hilarious.))OH NO, NO CHARACTER SHEET. Time to just roll as though you have no bonuses in anything.

((I was tempted to try and stay behind Larry and curve the ball, but that could have ended poorly.))
It didn't mangle him? Aww.
"Nice dodge!"
Throw the RED ball at Margath; clearly the bigger threat.Spoiler: Larry Sheet (click to show/hide)
Larry and Magarth, both keeping near the center divider, scoop up more spherical ammo from the ground. Magarth grabs the white ball while Larry gets the Red, and they face off against one another in a staredown worthy of any spaghetti western. But Larry is quicker on the draw, and sends his ball spinning straight into Magarth's face. The three inch long metal spikes of the red ball sink themselves into Magarth's face and tear away most of his skin and a good deal of flesh from the right side of his head. The ball rebounds off his skull and goes sailing away in a lazy arc, trailing blood and skin behind it.
AND THAT IS WHAT WE LIKE TO SEE! The Host shouts, stamping his feet and shaking his arms in barely contained excitement. We're down to the final three! Stage hands drag a screaming Magarth out of the arena.
Mason, until now cowering in the back, chooses this moment to go running forward and hurl the yellow ball at Allen. Allen dodges to the side, letting the ball sail past him, and then scoops it up off the ground and hurls it back at Mason. Mason just sort of watches as the ball sails high over his head and gets nowhere close to hitting him.
The red ball, and white ball are on the Red side. The Blue ball and Yellow ball are on the Blue side.

((Hooray for incompetence. Also, sorry about not having the character sheet. Got it now.))Spoiler: Mason Caldwell-Blue Barbarians-0 Points (click to show/hide)
Mason watches as the yellow ball sails over his head. "Thanks for returning that." He shouts over to the red side, before going to pick up the ball again.
Pick up the YELLOW ball and throw it at the last remaining RED guy. Try to time it so that it is thrown at around the same time as Larry if Larry throws a ball, but from a different angle.

EDIT:Hey, are there guns to shoot at the contestants?"Of course sir. The cheapest would be a revolver for 30 deadman dollars."
The fat man wobbles in excitement.
I'm glad customer service is high priority here.
Larry and Mason both grab their chosen ball and hurl them at Allen at the same time, but from different angles. Allen manages to dodge Larry's blue ball, but catches the Mason's yellow ball straight to the chest and contorts violently as it pumps electricity into his body. After a few seconds he finally collapses, still twitching, to the ground with a fresh electrical burn on his chest and smoke leaking from a black scorch mark in his jump suit.
A loud airhorn sounds and the center divider jerks up into the air, separating the two zones. The Host, high up on his vantage point, opens his arms to the crowd and gestures wildly as they applaud.
It's all over folks, and the Blue team has won! Thats right, with half it's members remaining, the Blue Barbarians have secured a tidy victory for themselves. And not only that, but two of their members, He gestures down toward Larry and Mason, Have won first and second place!
The Host vaults off the clear catwalk and drops 10 feet to land effortlessly next to Mason and Larry. At the same time, Allen, still looking only semi-conscious, is carried out by two burly stage hands, his arms around their shoulders and his feet dragging limply behind him. He is dragged over next to Mason and Larry so that they form a neat little line and the Host steps in front of them, still smiling up at the audience.
Of course, third place goes to Allen. He gets himself a whole 2 points! The Host pats Allen on the shoulder Good effort. Second place, and three points, goes to Mason here. He survived just as long as Larry, but wasn't nearly as proactive. Remember Mason, fortune favors the bold. And finally, in first place, He stops here for a moment to motion for more applause Larry! Congratulations Larry! You not only get a whole FIVE points, but one randomly selected prize! And that prize is... A drum roll plays and the Host contorts his face into an exaggerated mask of anticipation A BRAND NEW REVOLVER! He whips the revolver out of an inside pocket of his suit and holds it in the air for all to see.Yes, this chrome plated, double-action beauty comes complete with 6 hollow point rounds all loaded and ready for immediate use. And it's all yours, Larry. He hands the weapon to Larry. Use it in good health. He gives Larry a hard pat on the shoulder before smiling up at the cameras. Stay tuned folks, because after this commercial break, we've got Navarro in his punishment game!

Welcome back ladies and gentleman, To DEAD MAN RUNNING!
The camera pans out from The Host's grinning face to show a room that seems quite separated from the open arena of before. It's a long, brightly lit metal tunnel, with the Host on one end, in front of some sort of machine, and Navarro all the way down at the other end, standing behind a yellow and black line painted on the ground.
Now, before the break, played a nice round of Maul-ball and Navarro down there He points down the hall Was eliminated first. And we all know what that means: He gets to play a PUNISHMENT GAME! And today's game is called Glass Cutter! The premise is very simple: Behind me, here, He points to the machine behind him with his cane, Is a pitching machine! It is designed to use a pair of spinning wheels to throw baseballs for batters to practice their swings on. Well, our engineers have modified it a bit. Now, it throws these! He holds up a foot long, jagged glass shard, which appears to have simply been roughly broken off of a pane of glass. Fun huh? Now, when I press the start button, this machine is going to start hurling shards of glass similar to this one down this hall towards Navarro. And all he has to do to complete this game is to catch one! Simple, right? How he does it isn't important, all thats important is that he catches it and holds on to it for 5 seconds without it breaking or touching the ground. Now then, NAVARRO! he shouts down the hall, GET READY! GET SET! GOOOOOOO! The host presses a button on the machine and, after a few seconds of the wheels spinning up to speed, the first shard is hurled down range with a horrifying hiss.

Okay. Lay down flat on the ground, raise my left hand into the air, and dry to catch a piece of glass with it.
NO CHARACTER SHEET ROLLING AS THOUGH NO BONUSES!
Navarro raises his left hand into the air, which is the one with the Shackle on it. Catching shards of glass by letting them smash into a metal device at high speeds proves a less then stellar strategy and succeeds only in getting him showered with small fragments of exploding glass.
Gonna need a new strategy, there, Navarro.

I may just remove betting on losers.
You chug one of your beers. It, like everything else around here, has been branded with the Dead Man Running logo and name and nothing else. No ingredient information, no name, nothing. Judging by the taste though, it's about 3 or 4 times stronger then a normal beer.
Drink all the bottles at once. Still got 5 DD's.You drink all three bottles within the course of maybe 2 minutes.
You can already feel them kicking in. More in that you have to pee then anything else yet.
A thin guy who's spine is slightly visible under his belly scrambled out onto the bleachers, and collides with the guard rail. His lack of clothes beyond the classic heart-polka-dot boxers draws attention, knocking up a cloud of dust; the spectators within a few feet of him immediately fall into drug induced comas. Not really aware of his surroundings, he takes a seat, oblivious to the fact that it was already taken by some guy. He flops back into the dude's chest and stares straight ahead, pupils so wide there aren't any whites to his eyes. He sees the machine on the field warming up, and starts humming at the same pitch.

Navarro quickly removes his jumpsuit and, as best as he can, ties it onto the shackle, wadding it up on one side to act as a cushion. The audience applauds the entire time as he strips naked.
Several shards sail by before one hits his cloth target. It shatters the sprays glass down on him, giving him a myriad of small cuts across his chest and arms. A second smashes and and then a third sails low and catches him below the shackle, carving almost bone deep into the flesh just above his elbow. Navarro grits his teeth and keeps his arm raised while blood pours down his arm and pools around his shoulders and head. The crowd cheers louder. Finally, one hits the cushion and doesn't shatter, but doesn't stick either. It falls toward the ground. Navarro jerks his other hand up and just barely manages to catch the shard, cutting his hand slightly as he does. He quickly pulls the shard back and lays it flat on his chest, covering his head with his arms and waiting while the crowd slowly counts to 5.
And he's done it! What a cleaver lad too! Clearly, next time, we need to be shooting them down at about ankle height, eh folks?

Welcome back! The camera zooms out from the Host's smile and reveals that both teams are now back on the stage they played Maul-Ball on, though the pit they played in is gone, and they are now standing on a wide, empty stage. Each team is clustered on one side of the stage, some of their members with still bloody bandages wrapped around wounds. Magarth looks particularly bad off, with most of his head hidden beneath a mask of white, slowly reddening bandages. We're just gearing up for the Head to Head challenge as we speak. Bets are now opening and will remain open until the challenge begins!
NOW! Each team must select one member to compete against the other team's chosen combatant in an unknown challenge! The winner will net points for himself and his team! The loser will face shame, ridicule and whatever consequences there may be! He points at both teams at the same time. You have 60 seconds to decide who will represent you, starting now! If you can't decide, we'll let the audience pick for you! The clock is ticking!

The Host taps his cane and a trap door opens near the center of the stage. A strange sort of table and chair contraption raises up out of the hole and clicks into place. The object itself is solid metal; a combination of two chairs facing each other across a table with what looks like an open metal cuff on either side. The Host leads Larry and Magarth over to the table and has them sit in opposing chairs. He picks up their right hands and carefully fastens them together in an arm wrestling stance.
Today's Head to Head challenge is something we like to call Unarmed Combat! The objective is simple: Arm wrestle your opponent and force their wrist down into this cuff here. He raps one of the cuffs with his cane. That's all there is to it! He grasps their conjoined hands and carefully levels them, making sure they're in position.
We'll give you folks a minute to finish your bets, but don't dawdle now, these contestants are eager to begin, I'm sure!
You could, but it's a guaranteed loss for you since you only get back half again what you bet. You'd spend 2X on betting and end up with 1.5X.total.

You manage to catch larry straight in the head with a bottle! It shatters over his head and he doesn't even flinch. Or stop screaming. Guys got a strange pain tolerance. It's like some sort of bell curve.
IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE A GAME! The Host shouts as stage hands drag Larry away and shove the four unlucky participants over toward the area where the armwrestling table used to be. As they stand there, a section of the stage sinks lower, forming a small, square shaped arena with high metal walls on each side and 4 contestants in the bottom.
This one is so simple, even these uncoordinated failures can't screw it up! It's called THE BOX! 4 men enter, 3 men leave! Or two. Or none. Doesn't really matter to me! Here's the rules, so listen carefully. You four down there have 5 whole minutes to become 3 and a corpse. If you don't, then we kill you all! He pulls a large combat knife from his jacket The details are unimportant, it's only the results that matter. He tosses the knife down into the pit, where clatters to the ground between the 4 people.
Make it good and, above all, try to have fun with it!

Kriellya doesn't hesitate a second. Rather then sprint toward the knife she sprints straight toward Navarro and tackles him off his feet. The two fall to the ground and start to struggle, rolling and flailing. Navarro tries to jam the barrel of his Shackle into Kri's face, but Kri bashes it away with her own cannon.
In the mean time, Piecewise is sitting around with a stupid look on his face and Cromwell appears to have a charley horse.

Cromwell moves first, running into the center of the room and sweeping up the knife. He immediately turns and attacks Piecewise, who was also running for the knife. He jams the knife straight into Piecewise's shoulder, burying it to the hilt. Piecewise doesn't even flinch, instead he just draws is other hand back and clobbers Cromwell with a hay-maker punch that puts the man flat on his back and only half conscious.Spoiler: Piecewise Young - BLU team - 1 point (click to show/hide)

At the same time, Navaro jerks his head up and snaps his teeth at Kriellya's throat like a rapid dog, but she leans back and out of his range. In response, she tries to bash his head in with her shackle but misses and accidentally rolls off Navarro, losing her prime pinning position.

Kriellya charges forward and smacks Navarro in the head with her shackle, tearing a nasty gash across the side of his head and bloodying his nose. Navarro shakes the blow off instantly and swings a high kick for Kriellya's head, but just grazes it, scuffing her cheek and little more. Cromwell, apparently having not learned his lesson from Maul-ball, attempts a fancy flying kick at the dagger lodged in Piecewise's shoulder. Unfortunately he misses by a good margin and just lands hard on his back. Piecewise, seeing an opening, grabs the knife in his shoulder and, with a scream, rips it free. He starts to raise it, but then stumbles and leans against the wall, panting hard as arterial blood spurts from the horrible chasm of ruined flesh that used to be his shoulder. His left arm hangs completely dead at his side and he's looking pale.
Oh dear, things are looking bad! Piecewise! Hasn't anyone ever told you you're supposed to leave the weapon in the wound to stem bleeding? Kids these days, no common sense.

Like if Larry had kicked/shot Margrath under the table or slipped his revolver to someone going in to the penalty game.There are few absolute rules here. Backstabbing, betrayals, secret pacts, rigging games, interference by the audience, killing people with your cannon rather then challenging them normally, etc. are all ok. Just keep in mind that the show is there to be entertaining. If you just keep ganking people before games or something similar, the audience might get bored and start crying for your blood. And the host will be more then happy to give them what they want. Thats the biggest rule you have to worry about: Don't piss off The Host.
Also remember, points are currency, ammo, and the thing that keeps you from being eliminated. reckless use of them is ill-advised.

One of the contestants is selected at random and given a gun with as many bullets as there are other contestants. He or she is then placed into a small, enclosed stall like area. They are to shoot small drones that fly in front of the stall. There are as many drones as there are contestants, barring the one in the booth, and each one is hardwired to kill one of the contestants if shot down. Failure to hit any drones means that the contestant is executed.

One of the contestants is selected at random and given a gun with as many bullets as there are other contestants. He or she is then placed into a small, enclosed stall like area. They are to shoot small drones that fly in front of the stall. There are as many drones as there are contestants, barring the one in the booth, and each one is hardwired to kill one of the contestants if shot down. Failure to hit any drones means that the contestant is executed.

Secondly: 'what's cooking Doc?': flat arena. Big pot of boiling water sunk into middle (so that floor is at same height as top of pot). Round ends when one (or more) contestants are shoved into it. Also, the floor and wallsnare incredibly greasy.

Well, not quite like this. Obviously Piecewise the Young isn't supposed to be bleeding out on the floor right now, but to me the best plan configuration didn't involve setting up a 3 on 1. It involved setting up a 1 v 1 v 2, where the two 1's went at each other from the word go, allowing the 2 to attack at will. Either way, no need to trust the 1's and let them stab you with a knife. You're planning to betray one of them anyway :P
Relatedly, I feel Navarro's odds are pretty good no matter what he does at the moment. Speaking of, NAV, cease fire as soon as one of them bleeds out? Or while both of them bleed out? No hard feelings about bashing you over the head repeatedly with a metal cylinder of questionable origin :P ))

Suggestion for a game: Give the contestants spearguns and oxygen tanks, then dump them in a very large water tank with sharks in it. Loser(s) is/are whoever gets eaten by a shark/harpooned/kills fewer sharks, if the contestants manage to kill all of the sharks. There should be a 2:1 shark to contestant ratio, at least.((Seems good enough to me. Excitement! Death! Blood for the blood god and all that!))

Suggestion for elimination game: Target practice (name subject to change)Suggested modifications: First, the guns are full auto. If you hold the trigger too long at all, you waste bullets. Second, everyone is in the same arena.
One of the contestants is selected at random and given a gun with as many bullets as there are other contestants. He or she is then placed into a small, enclosed stall like area. They are to shoot small drones that fly in front of the stall. There are as many drones as there are contestants, barring the one in the booth, and each one is hardwired to kill one of the contestants if shot down. Failure to hit any drones means that the contestant is executed.
Last, the number of drones equals the number of contestants squared. Each drone has the name of a single contestant projected above it. Each drone fires at whichever contestant it's named after, with a weak gun that fires barbed darts which release poison after ten seconds. To avoid being poisoned you have to tear the barbed bugger out. Audience members can spend DD to increase the accuracy of the drones, and call targets for it (such as "right eye").
After a set amount of time, the game enters the second phase and the contestant's weapons are rendered nonfunctional (by suddenly electrifying the surface), but not the drones. The walls/stands/whatever's blocking the contestants from moving lower, and doors open to allow escape from the arena. After all contestants are out or dead, the game ends, and the contestants are ranked. The person who has the least drones with their own name flying around loses (and must play a torture game, like NAV did), and the people with the most of their drones still flying around win.
EDIT: Instead of a time limit, make it a percentage of drones shot down. Say, 25%, so that there's a decent chance of them succeeding before they run out of bullets. What happens when they're all out of bullets depends on how sadistic you are; you could either say that they have to resort to their arm cannons, or throwing their pistols. Or you could be nice and just enter the second phase then.
This way there's even more sadistic torture. The original isn't really so sadistic.

Navarro's attempt to do a running kick straight into Piecewise's temple fails and he does nothing more then kick the wall at full force and break several toes. Kriellya's attempt is much more successful, connecting with the handle and roughly tearing it down and sideways, spilling Cromwell's guts all over Piecewise with a hideous wet slosh. Cromwell somehow remains concious and continues punching Piecewise in the head, despite the fact that Piecewise has already passed out due to blood loss.

Cromwell drags himself and his trailing entrails off piecewise and sits against the wall, trying in vain to hold his guts in. Navarro staggers up to his feet and limps over to the knife, laying bloody and discarded next to piecewise, and picks it up. He lifts it in the air, holding it with both hands, and then stabs down at piecewise's throat with all his might...and he misses, stabbing himself in the other foot. The crowd erupts in uproarious laughter.
Oh Navarro. Always there to lighten the mood.
Kriellya, the only one who has somehow remained completely uninjured, backs off from the whole scene, but appears to be waiting for something. Perhaps she's waiting for the opportunity to attack?

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN! CROMWELL SHALL LIVE! For now, at least. The Host raises his hands to the crowd and waves on their applause. However, his fate will have to wait for another day! Join us next time on DEAD MAN RUNNING!
The camera pans out and over the stands, where two very fat men are rolling down the aisle, slapping at each other and screaming incoherently. The shot fades out as the sponsors list rolls.
STATIC
Backstage, the Host leads the surviving contestants down a blindingly well lit hall. Most walk, Some limp, leaning on teammates, while Cromwell is wheeled down the hall in a hospital bed. Eventually they come to a door, at which the Host spins on his heel and taps with his cane.
This is where you'll all be staying between shows. It's a comfy little room with 8 beds, a full bathroom and even a nice vending machine that will supply you with everything you could desire! Assuming, of course, you desire whats in that vending machine. There are cameras in the corners of the room as well, so our audience can watch you online 24 hours a day! Wonderful, isn't it? In any case, a new contestant should be arriving to join you shortly, and then, tomorrow, we record another episode. And so it goes! So simple even all of you could follow it, right? Good.
The stage hands herd everyone through the door and into the room. It's of reasonable size, with beds attached to the walls in a block two high and 4 long. On the other side of the room is a door labeled RESTROOM, and there are a few entertainment products down on the far end of the room, along with a vending machine that seems to be embedded- or possibly part of - the wall.
Oh, and Cromwell. The doctors told me they did all they could but that you're missing lots of bits. They say you'll need artificial organs within the next few days or you'll die! He points at the unnaturally sunken pit and recently sutured close gash that used to be Cromwell's stomach. You may want to do something about that.
And for the rest of you, one final thing: Your shackles will occasionally give you challenges during this down time. These challenges give you points. They're quite helpful. You can refuse to do them, of course, but there are punishments for that as well. All things in moderation, dear friends.
The door closes and locks shut with a heavy metallic clink. No sooner does the door close then Cromwell's Shackle Beeps.

Go look at the selection in the vending machine. Also, ask Larry about the revolver.
"Hey, this might be a bit of an awkward question, but since you are missing a free hand, would you mind if I borrow that revolver you got for the next round? I'll give it back afterwards, and I'll owe you one." He asks the one-armed Larry. It doesn't seem like he is bothered by the fact that all of the contestants are in this room, not just his teammates.

Yeah, I'm enjoying this tremendously. I also like this solution to the typical waitlist problem of 'No one is dying, so no one is cycling in, so no one on the waitlist is actually hanging around in thread and having a good time :P I also like the betting system that allows waitlisters to get some power before entering the game, so they aren't just thrown in with no points and no chance (at least in the later stages
Who would have thought guaranteed death would be a good thing XD Question on that though, will it always be the lowest point totals up for elimination, or was that just how this one works? ))
I wonder though, how will a winner be picked if people get replaced each episode? Or is there a set amount of episodes?
As either the OP or one of the following posts says, winner is first to 50 points!
((Who needs subtlety? Also, I'm assuming we don't need our character sheets in our posts between episodes. Should I edit it in anyway? Also, sorry about any typos, posting from phone.))
Ehhh, I'm posting it in. Better safe then sorry, since I'm assuming PW just isn't keeping the sheets locally for his convenience. (Which probably means he wouldn't notice if we slowly shifted our stats around as the game progressed :P I recommend not doing this. I imagine punishments would be swift and painful.)

Oh, and am I correct in thinking that simple stat increases are going to be hard (or impossible) to come by? Cause I like that the only reliable gain in player power is 1) consumable, 2) doesn't scale 3) is *also* the thing you need to collect to win. Very good system for an RTD, I think it solves a lot of the sort of traditional problems this game type has.

Mason glances around the room, taking in his surroundings. "Challenges, huh? I guess it wouldn't do to just let us relax in our downtime between episodes where we risk our life. Oh well." He murmurs, mostly to himself. He then goes to check out the vending machine.
Go look at the selection in the vending machine. Also, ask Larry about the revolver.

Back away from the beeping Cromwell. Go check what's in the vending machine besides food-stuffs, get a snack and a drink. Find a comfy chair and recover from not being beaten to death.Points is the standard. Though, sometimes other things may happen. Host may just ask the audience who they want to kill. Or he'll kill someone he doesn't like. Don't take anything for granted.Spoiler: Kriellya Niabs (click to show/hide)

Stat increases are, currently, limited to physical stats and even then only through the use of items, which you have to buy. People who decided rather foolishly to put all their points into luck, for instance, are probably not the best bet on survival.

Allen MarcYou head into the bathroom and wash the blood off before looking for something to eat. Near the vending machine is a refrigerator stocked with a wide variety of things, including things which really shouldn't be in a refrigerator. You grab a soda and some chips and sit down on one of the three big comfy chairs near the tv that's set up in the corner. It's not so bad in here, really. You'd expected much worse.

Mason watches Larry flail at the vending machine. One point to borrow it for the next episode sounds good. As long as you aren't going to charge me for any bullets used." Mason responds to Larry.You can exchange points freely by tapping the shackles together. Tap the top of his with the bottom of yours to give points to him. One point with each tap. Then authorize it by shaking your arm up and down.

I probably owe you a debt anyway. You do seem to be short a few organs. Mostly my fault, but when one of has to die or all of us do...
She reaches Cromwell and looks sad and distant for a moment, before handing the knife / bottle to Cromwell, handle first.
It's better to be certain then dead.

Larry shrugs. "Just don't use them all or I'll be annoyed. And you owe me another point if you lose it."You scan your Shackle against the vending machine and 5 points are deducted. It asks you to chose which limb and you select the Right arm, elbow down. A large, very classy looking piano black box is deposited in the slot at the bottom of the machine. Inside the box, sitting on a bed of crimson crushed velvet is a chrome limb, polished to a perfect shine. It resembles a human limb, though it has a distinct style to it, vaguely art deco, like something born of a 1930's Cadillac. You stick your recently sutured stump into the waiting hole and scream out in pain and surprise as anchors punch through flesh and embed themselves in bone and nerve filaments are roughly jammed into the stump and seek out their organic twins. Then entire thing hisses as it seals the stump in some sort of thick plastic coating and permanently affixes it to your arm. You flex your fingers. You have no sensations in the limb, it's just dead metal to you, but it obeys your commands like your old arm, so thats good enough. Perhaps better.
Rent out Revolver to Mason for a point. Buy another arm to replace the one I carelessly misplaced.

You flip on the tv and click around until you find some very old reruns (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP0MtMq0OM4).
The room, despite being relatively nice, all things considered, is built very much like a prison. There don't seem to be any sharp objects, no chemicals to fuck with, nothing anymore dangerous then the sheets on the beds. You suppose you might be able to buy something from the vending machine, or break a bottle or something, but thats about it.Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Search for anything to make a nice blade, spear, staff, or club. Purely for defensive purposes.
I have to ask though, how are you going to cut it off. You kinda need a sharp object for that, and I don't see any around :P(Shard of glass and hope, my friend. Beer bottles make great weapons!
EDIT: That reminds me.)
Look for a stick of some sort, about a meter long.
You're not even there. What are you doing. Are you hallucinating again?
(( I reallly don't want to do this, it could be mechanically incredibly bad for me. Thumbs are important, damnit XD ))You offer your thumb, the right one since the left is held in the shackle and you can't remove the shackle, for removal.
.... Great. Fine. Your shackle wants a pound of flesh, the shackle can have it.
Kriellya puts down her book and walks over to the kitchen to find a knife of any description. Failing that, a glass bottle from the fridge. She then walks over to Cromwell, picking up a piece of fabric on the way.
I probably owe you a debt anyway. You do seem to be short a few organs. Mostly my fault, but when one of has to die or all of us do...
She reaches Cromwell and looks sad and distant for a moment, before handing the knife / bottle to Cromwell, handle first.
It's better to be certain then dead.
Let Cromwell cut/rip off my thumb (ideally the shackle thumb) with whatever we find to do it with. Stop the bleeding with the random piece of fabric
(( So, directed at PW, on the subject of the shackles. Do they impede normal use of that hand? Cause right now I think we're all imagining them like megaman cannon's (replacing the entire hand and most of the fore-arm with a weapon), but I'm not sure if *you've* described them like that ))They completely cover your left hand and can't be removed. You effectively only have one hand. Because yes, they are very much megaman style.
Cut off her... Pinky. She deserves to at least keep the most important finger since she's being civil about it.Well, no one has a knife yet, so there's that. You could stab it off with TCM's ice pick. Or try to use some broken glass. Or something similar. Or you can literally try to bite and tear it off. Though I'd find someone with decent str to do that, unless you just wanna gnaw on her for a while. I'm guessing she'd object to that.
((Nice to see the two of you are being civil about inflicting bodily harm on Kriellya.))You watch tv while petting the revolver. Yes, whose a deadly girl, you are!
"So I'll owe you another point if I lose it? Sounds fair to me." Mason responds to Larry, before tapping his shackle to Larry's to transfer a point. After getting the revolver, he heads towards the fridge to get a snack before going over to the TV.
Do the point transfer thing with Larry for 1 point, then take the revolver. Get a snack and watch TV.Spoiler: Mason Caldwell-Blue Barbarians-2 points (click to show/hide)

Damn. Find and put on as many clothes as I can. Get a few beers, and get wasted....why the clothes? Like you want to just layer 15 t-shirts on and then get drunk?
Well lets see here, first the roll to see if you don't just horrible mangle your own hand attempting to cut someone with an unprotected piece of glass.Uhhh.... right then... try again or try and get his finger? Cause I might be willing to help with that... if you can convince me to get within a meter of him ever again..."If I fail, then I lose one of my own fingers, and probably one of the ones inside the shackle, which would be really bad since, you know, you need your fingers to operate all of its functions."
Say, what's your punishment for this anyway? Something horrible, I imagine...
Apologize to Kriellya for this, then tell her she deserves it for taking my guts.
Then chop her pinky off with the glass shard.
Ok, that passed.
Now the roll for you attempting to sever a limb with what little strength you have.
Well congrats, you manage to give her several annoying cuts but nothing else.

Yes, 15 T-shirts would be nice.Alright, you put on 15 layers and start chugging beer. I give you 30 minutes before heat stroke sets in.
"Cromwell, Kriellya, Let me do it. I am an expert at glass-based combat."
Help cut off the finger.
"Well, maybe I'd have the strength if I still had my internal organs!"The Combined strength of Navarro and Cromwell prove to be more then enough to sever the pinky of an non-combative woman! So hurray for that. Kriellya seems surprisingly unaffected by the act and just wraps her hand in the cloth without a word.
Help NAV to cut this bloody finger off.
5 points are deposited into Cromwell's Shackle.
Look at Shackle.It's a black megaman cannon that is attached to your left arm and extends up until just before your elbow. It has 5 triggers inside it, one for each finger.

The news talks about lots of local stuff, but nothing galaxy related. (Gotta remember, back before the UWM existed, the inhabited worlds of mankind, as a result of the rapid pace of the second expansion, were often quite isolated from each other culturally and politically. They were islands of humanity with rare contact with each other and almost complete indifference to the existence of others. It's what made the early days of the Altered wars such a clusterfuck, since no one coordinated anything and it was just the flailing of each individual world.)

Well, no right to free speech, at least not entirely. No right to assemble. Right to own weapons is strangely unrestricted. You can vote, though the effectiveness is questionable. You can do basically any drug you want. The laws of self defense are extremely easy to manipulate, if you catch my drift. Prostitution is legal. Digital piracy has a death sentence, the legal age is a bit murky but it hovers around 15-17, except in the particularly bad part megaliths down south where "Legal age" is more of a suggestion, and the life expectancy is often single digits.

Wasted Bastard. On a dose of red-orange fluids from a can that was probably made from lead and magnesium, he's possessive. His family heritage was showing through as he chose a seat, and then kicked up a cloud of whatever he's covered in. The seat was HIS, is his, and the ones around it are his too. Anyone venture too close, and they'd be twitching on the ground with pupils as wide as the moon.
His own pupils were invisibly small at the moment, focused on the thing that mattered: the door from which bleedy blue guy would emerge. Bleedy blue guy was his, his man. He would be the key to winning.

Bet 1 DD on Cromwell being eliminated.
EDIT: Oh, can we do multiple bets (not sure what's the English term for that)? For example, bet 1DD on one player winning AND another one loosing at the same game and we only collect if both of these things happen but if both of these things happen, we get a greatly multiplied payout. Not the best betting strategy but it could give you lots of DD if you're lucky.

To the stadium! DD dollars get?I'm gonna go with no. Otherwise yeah, strategic betting on various things could give you money regardless. In a perfect world, I would run the numbers for every episode and give different payouts for each bet (chances of survival lower if the player is injured, increasing payouts if they actually survive. etc). But I doubt my knowledge of statistics is good enough to do that without massive errors.
Also, could I bet 1 DD on Red team winning, and 1 DD on blue team winning?

Wasted Bastard. On a dose of red-orange fluids from a can that was probably made from lead and magnesium, he's possessive. His family heritage was showing through as he chose a seat, and then kicked up a cloud of whatever he's covered in. The seat was HIS, is his, and the ones around it are his too. Anyone venture too close, and they'd be twitching on the ground with pupils as wide as the moon.
His own pupils were invisibly small at the moment, focused on the thing that mattered: the door from which bleedy blue guy would emerge. Bleedy blue guy was his, his man. He would be the key to winning.Spoiler: Wasted Bastard: No Team, No Points, 0+?? DD (click to show/hide)

Go to the spaceport!Thing is you're not really even in the plot. Not that there really is a plot. You're just an audience member. You don' even have stats. I don't really want the audience running off and doing stuff that would detract from the premise of the game or the focus on the show. Thats more what ER is for, and more what it's balanced for. Here, you're probably just get killed and that will be it. And if you keep trying to do the same thing you'll just keep getting killed.

Did you ever get your payout for Kri surviving the game? I don't think so. It was 3 dd. so 12 all together.

Thats a bit more average.
Back to the stadium! Collect DD if applicable. Put 2 of my DD on Cromwell Jackson kicking the bucket this very episode! Put 2 more on Magarth doing the same!8 DD
2 on crom and 2 on mag to die. Not the same as being eliminated, by the way. Not 5x payout. It's basically the same as betting on survival. Elimination bets are betting who will die due to the elimination round. Thats why they pay off so much, they're difficult to predict.
Get DD.I believe that, in English, it's called a Parlay bet. I suppose...I really need to get someone who knows more about betting and statistics to work as the bookie for this. You know, handle the cash, betting, and run the numbers and such. Anyone want that job? I'd be willing to give you a cut of the total profits from DD betting, which you could use to influence the game. All applicants welcome.
Bet 1 DD on Xen being eliminated.
Bet 1 DD on Cromwell being eliminated.
EDIT: Oh, can we do multiple bets (not sure what's the English term for that)? For example, bet 1DD on one player winning AND another one loosing at the same game and we only collect if both of these things happen but if both of these things happen, we get a greatly multiplied payout. Not the best betting strategy but it could give you lots of DD if you're lucky.
2 DD
(2 DD)You'll have until the team challenge starts to make game long bets, as well as bets on the challenge itself.
Get more DD for this episode. Is this the ladt chance we hwve to bet? If so, et two DD on Cromwell dying.

Gooooooooooodevening ladies and gentleman and welcome to:
Dead Man Running!
Earth-3's most popular game show!
Our contestants come to us from all corners of the planet and beyond; destined for death, driven by desire or just plain crazy!
And here upon these hallowed grounds of sportsmanship they will compete for the ultimate prize: To have their greatest desire fulfilled, whatever it may be!
On last episode we saw our first four way elimination round AND Disemboweling in quite a while! You voted to let Cromwell live and he's back tonight to continue trying to reach his goal of 50 points and a wish for whatever his heart desires! But before we begin, there's a new member of The Blue Barbarians we need to introduce! His name is Xen and he's a long time fan of the show! I wonder if he's brave or simply foolish? We shall see, won't we?
The camera pans out from The Host, pauses to stare at Xen for a few seconds as he's introduced, and then pans up to view the line of contestants as a whole.
Our Team challenge for tonight requires a team leader from each side! Teams, pick your leader! And dear studio audience, now is the time to place your bets! Don't Dawdle!

I'm gonna go with no. Otherwise yeah, strategic betting on various things could give you money regardless. In a perfect world, I would run the numbers for every episode and give different payouts for each bet (chances of survival lower if the player is injured, increasing payouts if they actually survive. etc). But I doubt my knowledge of statistics is good enough to do that without massive errors.Understandable. Would it be ok if we betted on both teams winning, but used a different amount of DD? Or betted x DD on red team winning, and then y DD on red team losing?

Quote
Survival:Bet that a particular contestant will survive the episode.Bets must be placed by the time the team challenge begins. 1.5x pay out.
Winner:That a particular contestant will be the winner of either the Team challenge or the individual challenge. Bets for team have to be placed by the time the team challenge begins. Bets for individual begin when the participants are chosen and close when the competition begins. 3X payout for team, 2X payout for individual.
Loser: Similar to winner, but bet on who will lose Team or individual challenges. 2X payout for team, 1.5 for individual.
Eliminated: Bet on who will be eliminated by the end of the episode. Must be placed before team challenge begins. 5X pay out.
The first method, with betting the same amount on both teams to win, would mean guaranteed win, right? (due to 3X payout for team winner). Or does 'currently' not include that method which PW just outlawed?
The third one was more in terms of 'I bet a largish sum of DD on one team winning, then bet a smaller amount on the same team losing, to decrease the amount of tokens lost in case my bet of that team winning doesn't work out'.
e.g.: 4 on red winning, 2 on red losing
red wins: 3*4 - 2 -4 = 6 DD gain
red loses: 2*2 - 2 -3 = 1 DD loss
If I only bet 4 DD on red winning:
red wins: 3*4 -4 = 8 DD gain
red loses: -4 = 4 DD loss
This is not gaming the system, but decreasing payouts to also decrease DD loss when making the wrong bet. In this case, for two DD less potential payout, i decrease the possible DD loss by 3.
I would love to take the bookie position, if not for the fact I foresee a lot of school work coming up, and I don't wanna feel obligated to post. Sorry guys.

Ah, didn't get that later post apparently. I guess he needs to update that post explaining bets then, to avoid confusion. Or I should just refer to the wiki.
So basically, a contestant only wins the team challenge if he's still personally standing at the end, or if he has the most points where it is applicable (I could readily imagine contests where teams win or lose as a whole). I could see the logic behind that, but I find it rather ambiguously phrased in that post explaining the betting to be honest.

4 dd.
And we have our team leaders! The Host says as the camera zooms back in on him, catching a half second of the team leaders being caught by the stage hands and dragged away. This next game is a favorite in the home version of Dead Man Running, and a veteran from our very first season. We call it "CUTTING EDGE!"
The camera zooms back out to show the team leaders who have been strapped, spread eagle, to enormous rotating circular boards. Around them, radiating out like a dart board, are individually colored and labeled sections with point values written on them. The point values get higher as they get closer to the body of the team leader, and even higher around their head, neck and torso. The rest of the teams have been herded over to a small table that is a good distance from the rotating board. Atop the table are 10 throwing knives, carefully laid out and evenly spaced. The tables and the rotating boards set up for the teams are maybe 20 feet away from each other and parallel to each other.
The purpose here should be fairly self explanatory. You're trying to get those knives into that board and score as many points as you can! The team with the highest point count wins the challenge! The individual with the highest point count on the winning team is the winner over all, and the one with the lowest point count on the losing team is the loser and must participate in a punishment game! How you divide the knives up amongst yourselves if for you to decide, but keep this in mind: If your team leader dies before the round is over, then you automatically forfeit the match! Be careful! There's no time limit here, but the board will rotate faster the longer this drags on!
READY? SET? THROW!

"He'll be fine. Let's get some points!"Cromwell see's Mason whip out his revolver and aim it at Navarro. He seems to try and stop him by doing some sort of diving leap onto the gunman, but is far to injured to manage anything but a little hop and then trip and fall to his knees. Mason, his action unhindered, gets a bit caught up in the moment and shoots Navarro three times in the stomach. Navarro, bleeding heavily but seemingly unphased, just yells abuse at him, insinuating that he shoots like a "leprous prostitute" and that his mother was a "Quadriplegic pacifist coffee table substitute." His injuries and rage seem to be effecting his ability to think a bit. Allen grab for two knives from the table, intent on hurling them directly at the center of the board, right where Navarro is hanging. Luckily he misses with the first one and just cuts himself trying to pick up the second.

Xen Sweeps more then half the knives up off the table and hurls one of them at a space near Kri's throat. He luckily doesn't hit her, but the knife hits with it's handle instead of the blade and just bounces off. Kriellya, feeling a bit nervous about having people hurl knives at her, tries to squirm and dodge about, but find herself completely unable to move. Larry grabs the remaining three knives that are left after the rest of his team has taken their share, and hurls two toward the board. One sticks into the 50 point mark above Kri's head, and the other embeds itself into the 25 point marker between her knees.

(( Yeah, I was actually a bit unclear on whether points were scored by knifes in each board or by who threw which knife. I guess based on PW having blue team fling knifes at me and red team at NAV that it is the former.
As usual, IC complaining != actual complaining ))

Throwing knives at the other team leader is allowed, but if you hit the board, the points scored go to the OTHER team.
Navarro rolled really well on his end roll. Chances are he'll survive those gunshot wounds, assuming he isn't injured any more and someone can put some pressure on the wounds relatively soon.

"Just shut up and bleed out already!" Mason shouts towards the red team leader.
"Sorry, I got carried away there." He responds to Larry. He grabs a knife from one of his teammates and aims for his team's board, throwing it to try to get points without hurting Kriellya.
Get one of the knives on the Blue Team side, but not the one in front of the spinning board or either of the ones in the board. Throw the knife at one of the medium point areas. Try not to hit Kriellya.

As blue team is hurriedly murdering their team leader, the entirely of red team, save for Navarro, suddenly turn on Blue team's Mason. Cromwell raises his Shackle and squeezes an unknown configuration of triggers. The Shackle partially transforms, it's barrel shrinking down into a small nozzle that sprays out a stream of yellowish liquid. Mason stumbles out of the way of most of it, but a bit catches his shoulder and upper right arm, melting the skin off and exposing the muscle. Magarth and Allen both take the opportunity to hurl knives at him, Magarth sinking one straight into his thigh and Allen managing nothing more then a small cut to the side of his stomach.
OH DEAR! It looks Like Blue team is disqualified! Such a pity! And Xen, looks like you're getting a punishment game for murdering your own team captain!

He frowned slightly at the start of the round when the revolver came into play, but other than that his expression remained unchanged until one of the contestants fired a stream of acid from his shackle. As an ex-assassin who intended to participate in these games, he watched it intently, interested to know just what the weapons were capable of.
Tsafi managed a sympathetic wince as Team Blue took out their own leader, but remained silent even as the audience around him went into a frenzy when the host asked for their choice of winner. He looked somewhat uneasy.

He found it hard to enjoy watching such bloodshed when he knew he could very well be strapped to one of those boards himself before long. "Such is the nature of the game, I suppose."

Our penalty game today is a nice simple one, which I'm sure you're all familiar with. It's called hangman! And the audience is the one who gets to play!
As he says this, another spotlight flicks on and shows Xen, suspended over a deep pit by a set of restraints. There is one restraint for each arm and leg, and one for his torso. They're like rigid metal beams with clamps on the end holding his limbs. Just above his head is a glittering, silver loop of something very thin, like a noose made of piano wire.
Our dear audience gets to chose the letters, and for each mistake, we remove one of poor xen's supports. If we remove them all, well, at that point it's really just a question of if his neck breaks or if he's decapitated. Shall we play?

Drag NAV out of there, to somewhere safer and less prone to blood showers. Convince someone stronger and with more internal organs to assist.You're both off stage. You should be worrying about his bleeding out rather then carrying him away.

Soooo, does the order listed on the waitlist represent the order of when you get in?I put them in chronological order and usually that represents the order of when you get in. However, piecewise has stated that sometimes there may be "audience participation" which might mean there are ways to get in sooner.
Speaking of the waitlist, I haven't updated it since the team challenge begun, so not all info displayed there are current. I'll probably update it tonight.

Yeah, it means a 'name' of some description. I suspect PW mentions it because, if it *wasn't* a proper noun, then my original guess (S) was highly likely to be in the word (turns out the internet is quite good at hangman, when it puts its mind to it :P )

I've actually been a little unclear about that. I *think* you just win if he dies at any point during the episode, not if he is specifically killed in the elimination round, but I'm not sure.
If that is the case, elimination bets are going to start being ridiculously lucrative :D

((Too late to bet?))You can bet on who will be the victor of the Head to Head challenge. Red team or Blue team? Payout is 2x.
Or you can get piecewise to agree to some weird bet like "there will be a decapitation this episode".
Speaking of which, Harry Baldman has bet 2DD that there will be a decapitation this episode. Is it an acceptable bet? How much does that pay? Or is that a thing for the bookie to decide, if we ever get one?
It's updated. He had 9DD and bet 1DD on Cromwell surviving (hence his claim for 9.5DD). He gets paid at the end of the episode, correct? Cromwell can still die if someone decides to shoot him for some reason.Uh. Am I in, or does the waitlist work in strange ways?Paris may be behind in updating it. Also, round up if you're in decimals.
Also, I think I currently have 9.5 DD.
And new contestants get in at the end of the end of the episode, correct? So he's in the waitlist until then, right?

This next game is called "Silent Auction" and it's a bit different. Our contestants have been strapped into specially made auto-surgery beds back stage. The camera feed shows both contestants strapped spread eagle to large white tables. Overhead, a set of robotic limbs with various horrifying surgical instruments twitch like the legs of an eager, homicidal insect. Here's the rules. Each contest must wager one or more parts of their body as a "bid". Some body parts are worth more, some are worth less; your hand is worth more then a finger, and your arm more then your hand. These bids are done in secret, the contestants won't know what their opponent bid until after both bets are in. Each body part can only be bet once, regardless of if the contestant wins or loses. The losing contestant, the one who bets the lowest, immediately loses whatever parts they bid, courtesy of our auto-doc tables.
Now here's the fun part. We keep all those lost parts in a nice pile. The higher the combined value of the pile, the higher the prize is for the winner. The game will go for 10 rounds. Or until someone dies.
Do the contestants understand?

If it makes it ten rounds, I think it's who ever has the most bits still attached. But that's assuming no one bleeds out and dies, seeing as how there's no medical help this episode
I'm sort of assuming the auto-doc is going to put you back together on the fly for this one. Or at least sever the requested bits with a cauterizing tool, so you don't just bleed out shortly after the first 'bid'

Berius actually sent his already, and renegade set me several bids before hand, but I'm sort of inclined to wait for Renegade to get back since I feel he may have estimated some stuff wrong.

Let's take his head off first. With our teeth, if necessary. Then the limbs! And maybe rip the torso in half, for easier throwing. Then we'll be in business!

Well...Basically the entire studio audience, some of them wielding broken bottles, others tearing with their bare hands, leap upon one snooty member of the audience and proceed to bash, gash, rip and tear him to death right there in the stands.
Killing other audience members has no consequence for the murderer. However, for the murdered person, they lose all DD.

Pretty sure the DD go away so we don't form some huge audience-shanking conga line for infinity DD.In this case it didn't, but if you guys start doing that, it will.
(That's something we would definitely do, by the way)

Join the picture.This is gonna be a tight packed photo.
The purple-robed man starts as he realizes he'd not gotten his Deadman Dollars when he'd gotten in - how could he miss something so useful? On his way to the booth that handles the gameshow money - bets, payouts, and the starting amount at every episode - he notices a gang of viewers settling on a guy in golden robes, and... tearing him apart and tossing the bits into the arena. Upon seeing this, his robes faded from sight - along with the rest of him. Camfabric, itself a highly illegal commodity (unless one talked to certain people where the conversation took place as metaphorical large wads of money), can be very useful at times, though he'd not used cam-o mode before. Not perfect, but reasonable enough.The picture that does get taken, literally over GWG's dead body, is mostly normal, but there's one aspect that will leave paranormal investigators wondering for years to come. Near the right side of the image is what appears to be a man simultaneously being punched in the head at the exact same moment he's kicking something invisible in the crotch. It's a very odd phenomena.
So cloaked, he attempted to pick out the instigator by voice - some kind of orange or purple accent, and clapped him about the temples, hard enough to stun him, then shoved him bodily into the arena while he was still disoriented.

Allen has 3, Mason has 2. Moving into the 6th round, it looks like mason is starting to make a comeback, but can he keep it going?

(( I don't think it's negative, but I think internal organs are in general more highly valued than any external part (with the possible exception of the appendix or spleen)
My reasoning is that the basic value of the parts is determined by two factors: how important they are to function and how important they are to survival. In this framework, the 'fun bits' have essentially zero value, since losing them won't hinder the ability of the contestant to compete, and won't put the contestant at risk of dying. I assume they have *some* value, just because the audience wants to see them cut off :P (Though of course, if the objective was to ensure they'd get cut-off, then they'd be worth -infinity points, ensuring that if you bet them, you'd lose them)
This also means that limbs are probably worth less than internal organs, because loss of (most) internal organs essentially puts you on a clock to your demise. You bid 3 internal organs, 1 of which was redundant. He bid 1 redundant organ, 1 limb, and 1 useless bit. I think you were the clear winner here, even if the useless bit wasn't worth negative points :P ))

Allen:
Everything.
Mason:
Everything except his left thumb
My, but they are getting desperate now! Lets see... The host pulls out a clipboard and begins tallying bits from the pile. It looks like Mason, by virtue of simply having more to bid, wins this round! WHAT AN UPSET!
The host tosses his clipboard away and applauds as the machine descends on Allen, tearing out bits and pieces with reckless abandon. He walks over to Mason, still strapped to the table and leans down to talk to him, shouting over the screaming and gurgling of Allen being vivisected a few meters away.
You were the underdog the whole time, but in one swift move, on the edge of defeat, you snatched victory! Is there anything you want to say to the audience?
Mason seems to either be thinking or at a loss for words as the mechanical limbs deposit Allen's carefully removed brain into the pile of bid organs. All thats left behind on allen's table is a very specific set of organs and body parts: Loops of intestine, heart, one lung, both legs, a stomach...all still sitting in place but with nothing else around them but blood.
Ooh boy. Mason is gonna make some serious bank on this one.

Mason Caldwell-Blue Barbarians-2 points
Mason does his best to smile at the host, although his eyes show a mix of relief and sadness. "I guess it's a good thing I donated some little swimmers before I signed up for the show. I'm sure the donation center could sell them for a premium now that I can't make any more." He laughs a little, although it sounds a bit shaky near the end. "I remember back in the first round when you told me fortune favors the bold. It drove me to be bolder in the last round of the challenge. I'd also like to thank the audience for killing that one guy and throwing him on the pile. Their enthusiasm drove me to win this challenge. My opponent was bold in his bids, but when it came down to the wire, I guess I was bolder. It's not about how many losses you have. It's about how decisive the victories you do get are." He continues to manage a smile as he speaks, attempting to manuever his restrained hand to give the audience a thumbs up with his remaining thumb. "Also, I'd like to say now that I will painfully murder any contestants who attempt to make a joke about my lack of fun bits." He finishes his short speech with this last phrase. As he waits to be unrestrained and taken backstage, he can't help but think I miss my fun bits.
Wait to be unrestrained and taken back stage, unless the Host desires any more conversation. Miss fun bits and testosterone.
((Heh, I was kinda hoping some audience members would throw some DD my way for a couple of extra points. Also, I'm assuming that the vending machine backstage doesn't sell synthetic fun bits.))

The Screen above mason's head rapidly starts counting up from 1, spinning through the numbers until finally slowing and coming to a stop on 37.
THIRTY SEVEN POINTS! The host shouts, helping Mason sit up as the restraints release. Thats a pretty good prize for what? 40% of your fingers and one leg, wouldn't you say? WOULDN'T YOU SAY AUDIENCE?!
The audience applauds as Mason is helped off the stage by a stage hand.
Now then, on to the Elimination round. Lets see, who is on the cutting room floor tonight! Hmm. Oh, it looks like it's just XEN! Poor Xen, he just can't catch a break tonight, can he? I almost feel bad for him. Should we cut him a break tonight, Audience? Thumbs up, Thumb down?

Now, we've got a choice here. How shall Xen die? Shall we let A member of his team do it? A member of the other team? Or maybe, A member of the audience?

It seems to me that the audience character GWG is playing has nothing to do with his waitlisted character, since there is no way a character with the provided background should have access to secret teleporting technology :P ))

It would actually be a loss in the 6th round, since PW set it up as 'first to 6, up to 10 rounds'. Even if it went to 10, it's still a loss. If I get to round 10 and all you've bet is worthless pieces, *I* bet something worthless in round 10 and win without losing anything of interest. I don't win many points, but that was your fault for not playing with me, not mine :P
Really, the 'everything' bids are sort of a double edged sword. If it gets matched up against something really valuable, it's an instant win. But if you don't end the game with that bid, you lose. PW didn't say what happens when you run out of things to bid before the last round, but I can't imagine it's good.
It's actually a game that I don't think there's a clear way to 'win'. I mean, there are clear ways to not lose (yours is an excellent one) but I don't think there's any clear strategies for a 'win by knockout'

You know, I was going to make ask a question about the 'point of no return' being the point at which I can't stop reading because I have to know how far it will go, or if it is the point where the manga deviates from its current path to become simply bizarre.
I have encountered dinosaurs. I have the sneaking suspicion that they will talk and use psychic powers in the near future.

And now that I've read a bit of this, this manga *reads* like an RtD. I assume due to its influence, it really feels like one of your RtD's specifically, but it just sort of reads like the sort of story that develops from a good RtD. I can almost see the rolls XDThe forever war, Roadside picnic, Gantz, Biomega/blame! were all influences on ER. They resonated with ideas I already had and helped provide new ones. They're very much my style, and I am very much their style, I suppose you could say. I recommend them all, along with just about anything by Heinlein or Charles Stross. Particularly the collection of stories called "Wireless".
The influence on this game is obvious, but I can also see the influence on ER in general as well. The Gantz scoring commentary reminds me of a certain green speaking AI I know :P

Well, it looks like they've sent Larry to finish the job! the host leads Larry over to where Xen has quite literally been crucified on a T shaped cross, arms and legs bound by metal cuffs.

Larry runs the roller over Xen's limbs and then jams it in his stomach a few times. This draws plenty of blood and screaming, but isn't very effective at killing him. Xen just keeps screaming and swearing and biting at the air as blood hemorrhages from his belly and perforated limbs.

Assuming I get a gardening weasel of my own, charge him and then go low to dodge his swing - tackle his feet, then whack his face with my weasel.
If I don't get one, just dodge his swings and try to grab onto it.

Xen is released from his binds and immediately charges Larry, foaming at the mouth and chittering like a madman. Larry jabs the spikes towards Xen's throat but Xen ducks low and then pops back up, grabbing the handle of the tool. The two men struggle over the weapon, jerking it back and forth while tense music plays. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHAOkDamRzU)

Or maybe have a "melee weapon" item that allows the contestants to choose what weapon they want.
And then add an "advanced melee weapon" item that includes things such us taser swords or police batons with a spring that allows you to hit harder or nunchucks with a petrol engine that makes it spin.

As to how much Random should cost...it depends on what you put in the random slots.
Unless you're planning to decide that based on the cost, in which case...let's say three points. Three is a nice number.

So, for example, if we're sticking to Original items and not adding Random Only items, one buying a 5 point random item could get a shotgun worth 10 points.
The chances of getting something should probably be unknown, but could be affected by a player's luck stat if you feel like it.
There could also be a small chance to gain an item that is valuable, but not useful in the game unless you're really creative.
For example a day pass to the magister's lower palace or very fancy clothes.
Some of them could be inherently dangerous.
There could also be a very very tiny chance of getting something well beyond the price of the tier you're getting, like giving 5 points and getting an athlete suit worth 15 points.
To balance this out, you could force the players to complete a small puzzle or shackle challenge to open the box the random item comes in if it is really powerful.
The random items should come in a fun package. Maybe something gift wrapped with a ribbon.
Oh, or maybe you could have it be like one of those games where you pick toys up with that claw-crane-thing.
I believe it would be good to have some Random Only items.

Your wisdom in not murdering yourself via gravity is rewarded with having someone stomp on your foot and having someone else hurl peanuts at you.

Yeah, that would be the other interpretation. Though more accurate, I think it's that your audience character retains X/2 DD (and then vanishes for a while), and your player character gains X/20 points.

You give your points to cromwell.
Mason Caldwell-Blue Barbarians-39 pointsYou buy yourself a replacement leg and hand, shoving them into place and allowing them to affix themselves to your stumps.

Buy a replacement leg and hand for 10 points, an athlete suit for 15 points, and a Katana for 6 points. That should leave me with 8 points.
Edit:Oh, and give Larry back the revolver with 3 shots.
After a moment's thought you select the athlete's suit and press the vend button. The machine gives you a metal box the size of a briefcase.
The Katana that it produces is rather strange. The blade has an almost sabre like curve and no point, ending instead in a blunt, squared off end. The hand guard is larger then you'd expect as well, and is somewhat bowl shaped, designed to deflect blows away from your hand. The length of the blade is covered in a hexagonal pattern.
Your shoulder itches under the bandages.
Oh, I thought that meant that if you have X DD, then you get X/20 points.Lets split the difference and say that it converts at a 1/4th ratio rather then 1/2 and then 1/10. otherwise you'd need 20 dd to get 1 point. So you keep 25% of dd as points.

Why don't you just sell the individual shots? Say, ten DD and you'll fire a round at a target of the customer's choosing. Thirty, and you'll fire until the person's dead. You could even sell to contestants, because they can apparently convert points to DD, considering the one guy half-paid for the random option.))

Watch the 24-hour stream. Observe if the stream informs the audience of what the shackle told him to do. If it doesn't, go find a forum thread dedicated to guessing what the shackle's challenge is on the local networkAccording to the internet peoples, who clearly wouldn't lie, the challenges that the shackle tends to give out are often related to the needs of the contestant. The more desperate the need, the worse the challenge, and the greater the reward. It seems that whoever is posting the challenges really likes to fuck with the contestants.

Your shoulder is fine as it can be, for losing a lot of skin. The bandages just make it itch as it heals.Move away from the others and gingerly remove the bandages to check on my shoulder. If it is festering or for some reason the post-episode medical care didn't fix it and I can't get medical care, treat it with antibiotics or disinfect it with rubbing alcohol and rebandage it with stuff from the first aid kit I took from Kriellya. If I don't still have that first aid kit for some reason, buy another for 2 points and treat the shoulder. After treating it, or if it doesn't need treatment and isn't healed, put new bandages on and wear the Athlete Suit. Of my shoulder somehow miraculously healed, then forego the bandages and put on the suit. Also, if under attack for some reason, defend self with sword. Because paranoia is my friend.Spoiler: Mason Caldwell-Blue Barbarians-8 points (click to show/hide)
((That sword description makes me think it is some sort of saw or whip/chain sword. I hope it is. Also, I'm assuming I got medical care for my shoulder after the episode. And I'm glad I took Kriellya's medkit after shediedwas betrayed. I'm probably making too many assumptions, but I'm assuming I still have it.))
You open the case and pull out the suit thats neatly folded within. The suit itself is a single piece body suit which covers the entirety of the wearer, including hands and head, with the head piece being the only really solid part and the rest being flexible slightly rubbery. It's a dull silvery color and appears to be made of some sort of fibrous material fused with a black, synthetic backing. When you put it on, the suit molds to your body, compressing itself down until it's skintight. The helmet, which fits your head snugly within but is more rounded and spherical on the outside, displays the world to you via a 360 degree camera system that allows you to look anywhere you want without moving your head, as well as following your motions normally. Always hovering on the corner of your vision is the number 5, displayed in green system font. Inside the case, under the suit, is a small folded sheet of paper.

If 2 points (20DD) works out to 10 shots, that's 2DD a shot. I'd prolly price it at 3 a shot to make it accessible to more people.
Yeah, 3 or 4 seems reasonable.
"Ammo" is listed as two points in the machine, with no type specification.I know, but I think that's for the revolver (6 shots). Knowing PW, I think it'll be same price for this gun though.

Yeah, 3 or 4 seems reasonable.
I suggest five DD per shot. One point for two chances at instakilling someone of your choice is a real deal. Anyways, two DD wouldn't turn a profit, three and four would result in weird fractional point debts to contestants which would be a pain to keep track, and two point five would result in weird fractonal DD debts.
Wait why am I arguing for you to make it more expensive gaahh. SELL THE SHOTS AT ONE POINT PER TWO. YOU'RE TURNING A PROFIT, BECAUSE YOU GOT IT FOR FREE.

"Greetings contestant and congratulations on purchasing your very own Athlete's suit. The Athlete's suit, like the contestant's suit, is designed to increase your chances of survival in the game. It runs on charges, much like the Shackle, however, these charges are renewed at the beginning of each new episode. The suit has two capacities: Defense and offense. Defense mode is passive and is always active, while offensive mode requires your input. Defense mode allows the suit to protect you from harm as long as it has the charges to do so, and the force isn't too great. Offensive mode gives a temporary boost to your physical capacities such as strength, speed and dexterity, but only lasts for a short period of time. Use your charges wisely."

Mason, Katana in hand, calmly walks up behind Magarth. The Silvery fibers on the right arm of the suit sudden bulge outward, like some sort of perverse alien musculature, and his arm jerks upward in a casual diagonal slash so fast that the people around him only notice it because of the hellish hiss the blade makes as it cuts through the air. When they look over at the two men, they see Mason standing there, his Katana crackling with electricity and the hexagonal patterns across the blade slowly growing outward in crystalline formations. Magarth turns to see what the ruckus is behind him and suddenly finds himself on the ground. He looks around, confused, only to find his left leg is still just standing where he was a second ago, and whats left of his thigh is now spurting blood all over the floor.

Hold the bones together with dried ligaments and tendons (use a blowdryer, there should be one in the bathroom.) It's already in the shape of a leg.
Try to tan the leg skin (using a blowdrier and household chemicals) to create leather, then craft a leather cup and straps to hold the leg on.
And don't waste that meat, make some delicious leg jerky.
And also make toenail knuckledusters.
((Again, typing this on a phone so I can't copypaste my stats. Do you mind looking for and using my sheet? Just until I get my computer fixed. I'd rather not try to compete with no stat bonuses at all.))
Well, you succeed on making a rather rickety peg leg.
Leg jerky attempts go less well; just sort of end up with shitty dry, raw meat.

Stab random people in the streets with my official DMR katana.You gorge yourself to the point of near unconciousness. You smoke till you get lung cancer. You drink till your kidneys detonate. You play with the action figures until they explode into plastic shrapnel in your hands. And then you go on a mass murder spree with your katana before being gunned down by the police. So dead.
Do something useful.WRONG PLACE FOR IT!
Go to the nearest video store, see what new releases they have. Also look for space-Zumba DVDs.space zumba is basically indistinguishable from energetic intercourse with techno music in the background. You guess it was the logical conclusion.

And welcome, once again, to a new episode of DEAD MAN RUNNING! The Most Popular show on Earth-3! Now, our contestants had hard show yesterday, but one of them, the one over there in a shiny new Athlete's suit, came out with a frankly absurd amount of points! And Poor old Xen, he had himself a hard day. Strangled and shot. It was like an old country western, except everyone was "The Ugly".
Now then, before we begin our team event, I'll need one person from each team! A brave Captain who is willing to do undertake the very dangerous task of wearing this Captain's hat. Come on now, don't be shy. And don't make us chose for you! We chose by lining you up and letting the audience throw lawn darts!

ALRIGHT! Looks like we have our captains! The host says, placing a admiral's hat on Gilbert and Wasted's heads. The lights cut out on everyone but the host as stage hands drag everyone back stage again.
Now, we're going to play a game which pays homage to the great gladiators of the past, our ancient brethren in the field of honorable death sports. We're having a naval battle!
As he says this, the floor of the stage rolls open, peeling back to reveal a massive pool, which is hundreds of feet long and wide, though appears to be only maybe 10 feet deep. Bobbing at either end of the pool is a boat, a relatively small craft, maybe 20 feet long with low walls, a protected driver's cabin and all metal construction. Something like this (http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/01/f3/0a/95/vietnam-patrol-boat.jpg). Each boat is armed with two mounted cannons, one on each side. They fire tennis ball sized metal rounds, but need to be reloaded manually between each shot and cannot be rotated or aimed. It appears as though the teams have already been dumped on to their respective ships.
The objective of this game is simple! Eliminate the other team! How do yo do that? Well, there are two ways. First, anyone who falls in the water is immediately eliminated. So, if everyone on the other team finds themselves in the water, then you win! Second, kill the captain! If the ship's captain dies, the ship is considered eliminated! Oh, and the captain is the only one allowed to drive the boat. If anyone else tries to do so, their team automatically loses. You can help the Captain drive, but you can't do it without him!
Team captains, are you ready?

Shoot anything in range. If the others try to board us, use an offensive charge to board them, activate the sword, and make with the slicing of the captain. Don't activate the sword until I'm on their ship. Also, you know, 360 degree vision, dodge, hope a defensive charge can take care of anything else..

Doomblade187, despite your claims of having 8 DD I ended up with you having 9 DD.
And last second action because I noticed this while updating:
Also, if Xantalos' char somehow dies, claim his head too along with his DD, since I think there's a bounty (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=137730.msg5295612#msg5295612) on it...
If there's no bounty on it, then just get his DD.
EDIT: Added Holy in the audience because why not. Plus, I need to keep track of her beer bottles in case she starts throwing them.

Somewhere in the burnt out magpie's nest of frayed synapses that Wasted bastard calls a brain, a neuron fires up just long enough for the realization that he's doing something very stupid to pierce the layers of chemical addled idiocy. Unfortunately it doesn't stay active long enough to give him a good plan, so he just grabs the wheel and jerks it the other direction, mostly as a brain stem reaction rather then anything else. The blue boat lurches the opposite direction and grinds against the wall until it pulls free and chugs straight towards the reds. From his captain's position on the red boat, Gilbert sees the oncoming blue vessel and tries to take evasive action. Unfortunately he does this by rapidly jerking the wheel back and forth like an idiot, effectively keeping the ship on a wobbly, but overall straight course.
The two ships slam headlong into each other, their pointed prows crunching flat against each other, and their crew lurching forward into the walls and floor. They bob back, separating for a moment before the force of their engines push them back into each other, pinning them together.

Post by: Parisbre56 on May 22, 2014, 08:26:29 pm
As for whether or not the round up counts total payout or individual payout, that's simply a matter of ambiguity and I'm inclined to assume the ambiguity benefits piecewise until stated otherwise by him, unless you can cite evidence to the contrary.
And again, if you bet 2DD for survival and 1 on elimination, you get ||5*2*1.5+1*5||-3*6=2DD on the best case scenario while in most other cases you loose DD. You're probably better off betting a parlay if you feel like making multiple bets.
EDIT: Found it:
))Back to the stadium! Collect DD if applicable. Put 2 of my DD on Cromwell Jackson kicking the bucket this very episode! Put 2 more on Magarth doing the same!8 DD
2 on crom and 2 on mag to die. Not the same as being eliminated, by the way. Not 5x payout. It's basically the same as betting on survival. Elimination bets are betting who will die due to the elimination round. Thats why they pay off so much, they're difficult to predict.
Post by: syvarris on May 22, 2014, 09:02:32 pm
Ok, so here's how betting works.
...
THE BETS[/b][/size]
Survival:Bet that a particular contestant will survive the episode.Bets must be placed by the time the team challenge begins. 1.5x pay out.
Winner:That a particular contestant will be the winner of either the Team challenge or the individual challenge. Bets for team have to be placed by the time the team challenge begins. Bets for individual begin when the participants are chosen and close when the competition begins. 3X payout for team, 2X payout for individual.
Loser: Similar to winner, but bet on who will lose Team or individual challenges. 2X payout for team, 1.5 for individual.
Eliminated: Bet on who will be eliminated by the end of the episode. Must be placed before team challenge begins. 5X pay out.
This's probably what confused people. Especially considering that it was posted before we even knew 'elimination rounds' existed. Also the fact there's no option for a death bet.
My fault for trusting the wiki then. I thought I found a chink. Nevermind then~

It never reaches it's target though, instead coming to an abrupt halt in Mason's hand. He's standing on the prow of the blue boat, blade at his side, billiard ball sized metal bearing in his other hand. He looks at it for a second before dropping it, letting it clang dully against the deck. He takes a step forward, hops over to the other ship, and down onto the deck. He pauses for a moment, bouncing on his toes like a futuristic bruce lee as the strange metallic musculature of the suit bulges outward, and then swings a roundhouse kick straight through the Red ship's cockpit, tearing the thin metal roof clean off and sending it flying a good 15 feet. He spins back to a normal standing position, and bends down, looking into the cabin that he just opened like a tin can. Gilbert is crouched down low, one hand still on the wheel, the other covering his head.

I'm not sure PW has ever commented directly on what the 'purpose' of the betting system is, other than to increase audience involvement.
We had a discussion going earlier about the 'minimum requirements' of the system. I think the only solid requirement was that it had to be at least zero-sum, where no bet exists that guarantees a gain (such as what several people keep trying to do, and keep getting PW declaring bounties on them :P )
Other than that, it would be nice if the odds reflected somewhat the state of the game. So, if Blue team is fully equipped in olympian suits, and red team is a bunch of 0-point noobs, the odds should be setup so that a blue team win pays out far less than a red team win.
If you want some help, I could probably scrounge up enough time to make a simple program to calculate odds based on some arbitrary 'power' value. So, feed the program some arbitrary power level of each player, and it will feed you back an odds chart to use for betting.

So for instance, you remember the Silent Auction challenge where everyone and their dog bet on the wrong one, and one person bet on the right one? At the moment that was just a straight payout or loss, but in a more realistic setting the house would basically say "okay, everyone's betting on this, that makes them more likely to win/will be more expensive if we lose, so obviously it's worth less if/when they do." The lone guy who bet on the underdog, on the other hand, would have been rolling in it.

The advantage of this kind of a thing is that it's more or less automated. Disadvantages include less satisfying rewards if you guess correctly but aren't the only one (which isn't always going to be a function of picking the most powerful or maimed to win/die), and the fact that it works a lot better the more people you have wagering.
"Power" functions strike me as a poor idea mechanically, but a far more interesting one. The main issue I have with... actually, I guess you could calculate their odds to hit or something and get a nice spreadsheet of everyone's eventual odds of winning based on various criteria (rolling a 5 followed by them rolling a pair of 1s, rolling higher than them enough times that they're probably maimed or something, etc).
Anyway, even with that a "power" function would probably be a bit arbitrary, especially once we get into chunky salsa differences rather than numerical bonuses. That said, I do like it because it gives a nice shiny number to display in front of everyone, as opposed to just the current odds or something kind of clinical like that. Might go for something simpler, though, like their total useful actions minus their harmful actions, or some known-to-be-useless "+1 for having all limbs, +1 for having a weapon, +1 for killing intent" type thing.
I probably don't want to get fancy enough to give each contestant their owns stat card, but it'd be very thematic.

Yeah, we discussed the automated systems. They would be really easy for us to do, are definitely zero-sum, but kind of unsatisfying. Essentially no reward for guessing the obvious answer, massive rewards for betting on an underdog, but *only* if everyone else bet on the obvious answer. It also requires audience participation, which means it either works fantastically if everyone participates, or withers on the vine if no one does.
The 'power' suggestion requires fine tuning, but is probably the most flexible and useful. I intend (personally) for the power level to be a bit arbitrary, and for the variance in power to be fairly small. Like, if I wanted to make a more concrete system, say everyone starts at an arbitrary power of '20'. Having 10 points would increase your 'power' by 1. Having a suit of some kind would also increase it by 1, or maybe 2 for the best suit. Losing limbs would decrease your power by 1. But compared to the original power, this doesn't affect the power that much, and takes a particlarly massive mis-match (a person with 40 points and an olympian suit vs. a quadruple amputee) to significantly affect the odds.

Soooo yeah. This is basically an spreadsheet implementation of the 'power' idea, Irony. In the upper left, you have the power modifier, and then the modifier + base power. Everything that is bolded is the return from that particular bet.
It's open to editting, so feel free to play with the numbers and formulas or leave comments on it. I have no idea how good it is, but I don't see any obvious 'this is always a win' setups here.
Also, to avoid rounding malarkey, I would consider setting it up so that all bets are returned at the end of the episode, as has been suggested. They are then tallied with partial DD's, and rounded as a final total. This prevents things like all those 1.5 bets rounding weirdly to generate a return... Alternatively, always round down :P
Post by: syvarris on May 24, 2014, 10:17:08 am
First issue: It doesn't balance 'Powah' very well. There is only a .2 odds increase in the death chance of Mason, despite the fact he's in an athlete suit and can take five death blows (IIRC). I'd have to bet a large sum on his death to get any real benefit from the slight increase, and it's small even then.
On the same note, it's only slightly worse to bet on his survival than other people. If I bet ten DD on him, I gain three when he survives. If I bet ten on Wasted, who is far more likely to die, I gain five. That's only an decrease of two DD, for a massive risk reduction. I shouldn't be able to get much of anything for Mason's survival.
Also, Mason has a powermod of 2 for having an athlete suit and a katana. How about if someone had a contestant suit and an icepick? Swat gear and a rifle? Olympian suit, and fifty revolvers? 30 points, and intricate knowledge of shackle combinations? 30 points, and no knowledge whatsoever? 7 points, knuckle dusters, and an almost fully robotic body?
Also, there is no "always guaranteed a win" scenario in vanilla DMR. I just trusted an invalid source.
Post by: Kriellya on May 24, 2014, 12:36:31 pm
This is just my initial levels and formulas, its not intended to be a 'this is how it is' sort of thing. I'm mostly sharing it to continue my discussion with Irony about the topic with a concrete program to mess with.
The sheet essentially has two levers on it: The Base power and the power mod. Base power is sort of intended to represent the amount of power that having 2 arms, 2 legs, and all your organs gives you. So, losing limbs or organs might cost you power; gaining weapons, points, and suits might gain you power.
(I just highlighted both of these fields on the sheet. Mess around with them as much as you like)
The amounts are all just numbers I threw in while I was playing with the sheet. We could decrease the base power and allow higher power mods, which would affect the odds more. We could also just increase the amount of power things are worth. All very flexible, and sort of setup to be the lever of the bookie.
One change I might make is to kind of normalize how everything is calculated. Currently, some things are calculated in radically different ways, which can make for some interesting scenarios. I probably want to adjust it so that the returns are effectively capped at a certain max range from the base return. This is already true of some of them (the Team Win/Lose is capped at twice the base) but can probably be done for the others. Survival/death is calculated a bit strangely, and should probably be reconfigured such that it doesn't give quite as massive rewards for people with low power surviving, as it's possibly quite likely for them to survive as they'll have less opportunity to take risks.

RESPAWN6 DD
GET DD ONCE AGAIN
Begin breakdancing.Considering you're fat and laying face down on the ground, it's gonna be less breakdancing and more "Manatee like flailing".
Tsafi allows himself a satisfied smirk as he watches his victim topple into the arena, then casts a quick, wary glance around.2 DD
Nobody seems to be coming to avenge their bloodthirsty comrade, so he just shrugs, reaches into a pocket of his jacket and starts counting out a few coins, humming softly all the while. Nothing makes one feel so alive as ending the life of another!
>Get DD, make sure no-one's about to jump me.Spoiler: OOC @PW (click to show/hide)
AFTER RESPAWNING, IF I HAVE ENOUGH DD, ORDER HAPAH OR WHATSHISNAME WITH THE RIFLE TO SHOOT YOINK
Hey hap, I think someone wants you to do some wetwork.
You brace a the rifle on your shoulder and take a shot down at Wasted Bastard. The shot clangs off the roof of the captain's cabin, causing Wasted Bastard to scream something about Government satellites."Hey, guy with the rifle? Shoot the blue captain. Like, right now, before that guy in the athlete suit kills my bet.""You got it!"
"Sword" hands Hapah three Deadman Dollars.
If I can see blue captain, shoot from where I'm at. If I can't, move down to the railing to get a better angle and take the shot then.
Enjoy show. Put arm around Holly, but in that subtle way all the cool kids do it.
(I like how the whole 'naval combat' thing was immediately thrown out in favor of BOARDING HO!)
Speaking of Boarding Ho(e)
Sneak up on audience members and poop in their hair before bolting off.Oh you poop in their hats. You poop in ALL of their hats. So many fucking hat you can poop in, so much poop to poop.
The golden-robed man appears in the DD-getting area before appearing in the stands and trying to figure out what was and is going on.7 dd.

"Welp! Time to go out as an idiot or a champ!"

"We tried it the easy way, now we do it the Mason way."
Offensive charge. Bisect the Red captain symmetrically. Also bisect any Red who tries to stop me. As always, 360 degree threat monitoring.
Cover this man with the revolver. Still!
"Man the guns, you two!"Spoiler: Larry Sheet (click to show/hide)
Gilbert leaps up, attempting to tackle Mason off the boat. He slams into mason's upper thighs and bounces off like a small dog attempting to tackle a Semi-truck. Mason's suit distorts again, the muscles along his arm and shoulder bulging outward as he swings his sword vertically, attempting to bisect the Red captain. Gilbert throws himself out of the captain's cabin, rolling across the deck as the blade cleaves straight through metal and leaves a water-hemorrhaging wound in the metal.
Gilbert is dodging like a kung fu master! The Red Team's Captain is showing himself to be worthy of that title!
Navarro, high on painkillers and clearly feeling invincible, grabs another metal ball and hurls it toward Wasted, cracking the cracked out captain upside the head and sending him to the deck, unconscious. Larry squeezes off a shot from his revolver that clips Navarro in the arm, blowing out a horrible mass of blood and muscle across the deck.
"COME ON! YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO BETTER THEN THAT!" Navarro screams, pointing one thumb at his heart, "HAVEN'T YOU BEEN PAYING ATTENTION? I'M FUCKING BULLET PROOF!"
Magarth, in the mean time, continues to try and tear a cannon free.

Xan charges upstairs like an ambulatory whale carcass and the weasel charges down, both headed straight for Radio and his date. But Paris, having peeled himself off the floor and charged up the stairs faster then Xan (no surprise), intercedes. He snatches the weasel, which is leaping toward Radio butt first, out of the air and squeezes it like a tube of toothpaste, spraying weasel poop all over Xan's horrified face. Paris then tosses the weasel down the stairs while Radio stands up and casually smashes a beer bottle over Xan's head and then kicks him backwards down the bleachers.

The crew of the Blue vessel flee her like, well, rats off a sinking ship. Gilbert makes a flying leap toward the red ship and Mason swings, trying to catch the Red captain in mid air. The blow clips Gilbert in the hip and continues down, cleaving the entire front section of the blue vessel away from the rear. Gilbert, bleeding and flying off target, manages to just barely catch the side of the red boat, clinging there with one arm and one leg dangling off the edge and the others trying desperately to find a hand hold as he slides off. Mason just barely makes it back onto the Red ship, leaping into the air and landing awkwardly on the roof of the captain cabin, while Navarro and Cromwell go straight into the water.
Navarro and Cromwell are out!
Magarth, his bone pegleg clanking against the metal of the Red ship, charges toward the open front of the captain's cabin, ice pick stabbing at empty air and a wild scream about cabbage on his lips. Larry steady's his revolver and takes aim. Magarth leaps. Larry fires. The bullet tears through Magarth's chest at the same instant the icepick sinks deep in between Larry's ribs. The two roll cross the deck before Larry kicks magarth off of him. Magarth is back on his feet in an instant, despite the sucking hole in his chest, icepick still in hand. Larry is up on one knee, revolver pointed at Magarth with one hand, the other gripping his side and blood pouring between his fingers. He has one bullet left.

Start running after Tsari again. Tackle him to the ground and start mutilating his other ear if I get the chance. If he resists, just kick his head in.
After Hapah fires his shot, run towards Tsari and kick 'im in the balls.
Kick this man in the balls. Hard.
Then go back to taking cover behind whatever seats are between me and Hapah. Try and crawl towards the nearest exit to escape.
tsari and Dp run right past each other and then stand around, looking confused.
Shane-9DDHmm well you got a 6...and you only said "help"
Waking up from his apparent coma in the front row, Shane runs over to help defend Tsari

The guy with the gun. Xon's feeling suicidal.

Xon charges hap and tackles him to the ground, pinning the gun beneath his impressive girth and hamhand slapping him about.
Run back to the weasel nest and raise an army. Charge back into the arena.
Doomblade187- 8 DDThe weasel army is displeased by smurf's poo and eats him.

Doomblade forgets to wear pants.
Stand around near Hapah and protect his gun if he gets attacked, we need that shit in working order.You grab Xon and flip him off of Hap, if only to prevent him from damaging the gun.

And Welcome back! Today's punishment game is called "Pressing issues"! As you can see, we've strapped flimsy down to this specially made table with pneumatic crushing plates above him! There are ones for his hands, his feet, legs, stomach, head, chest, groin, The whole shebang! Now, normally, he'd be asked a variety of riddles and questions and for each wrong answer a random amount of pressure would be added to one of these crushing plates, but since he's a little bit quiet as of late, we've decided to let DP up in the stands answer for him. The game will keep going till DP has answered 10 questions correctly or until Flimsy is no more! DP, ARE YOU READY!?

EDIT:
Quote from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermiform_appendix#Maintaining_gut_flora
Although it was long accepted that the immune tissue, called gut associated lymphoid tissue, surrounding the appendix and elsewhere in the gut carries out a number of important functions, explanations were lacking for the distinctive shape of the appendix and its apparent lack of importance as judged by an absence of side effects following appendectomy.
William Parker, Randy Bollinger, and colleagues at Duke University proposed in 2007 that the appendix serves as a haven for useful bacteria when illness flushes those bacteria from the rest of the intestines. This proposal is based on a new understanding of how the immune system supports the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria, in combination with many well-known features of the appendix, including its architecture, its location just below the normal one-way flow of food and germs in the large intestine, and its association with copious amounts of immune tissue. Research performed at Winthrop University-Hospital showed that individuals without an appendix were four times more likely to have a recurrence of Clostridium difficile. However, other research showed that there is a greater rate of C. difficile infection among people with an appendix than those without.

Wait...I'm not a commercial...
....
When the show returns the Host is nowhere to be seen, instead he's doing voice over as the cameras look down on the two volunteers, who have been moved into what looks like a batting cage of sorts. Both men are affixed, spread eagle, to large metal plates at the end of long alleyways. At the other end of the alley is some sort of automated crossbow. Each man is wearing a helmet with VR goggles and a bit target affixed above his head.
This is a game we call "William Tell" and it's a good bit of fun. Basically, these VR goggles are linked up to those crossbows. They are aimed using the contestant's eye movements, and actions are taken using a little microphone by which they give orders. We go in rounds, and each round a contestant my do one of 4 things. They may fire the bow at themselves, attempting to hit the target above their head, which will win the game for them. They can fire their opponent's bow at their opponent, attempting to injure or kill them. Or they can block themselves or their opponent using a metal dividing wall.
If the contestants understand, they may take their action for this round now!

Gilbert, because the MVP is probably just as likely to be punished as rewarded, and I don't want Beirus' char to be punished.((Thanks. Although I think this vote is for MVP and the winner of 5 points. I think the second question is for who gets eliminated. Speaking of which, PW, I want to use the reward from my Shackle challenge earlier on Mason if he doesn't win MVP.))

He used his gun well and his fighting with Magarth was both valorous and entertaining even though he had no fancy Athlete suit to help him.
In other news, I updated my info (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=137730.msg5168744#msg5168744) again. I gave Gilbert the standard 5 victory points and his team the standard 1 victory point. As always, notify me of any mistakes.
In other news, looks like Hapah is making some good money selling bullets. He's tied with me for the title of richest audience member. Hey Hapah, wanna combine our vast fortunes and do... something? Invest in more bullets maybe? They seem to be a profitable investment. Maybe we can diversify our assets by buying special kinds of ammo? :P

Since I can't get at his throat, jab Wasted Bastard in the gut with the broken beer bottle. Cause as much blood loss as possible.

kick someone while they're downThe pile of flailing limbs and murderous intent that has coagulated around Wasted Bastard glows for an instant and then detonates, hurling audience members in all directions. Xan, whose big flabby guts take a great deal of the blast, busts like a balloon full of lard and red jelly, viscera splattering the stands like a Gallagher show gone horribly wrong. Darkpaladin flies back, smacks into the corner of the ramp with his spine and then thuds to the ground, paralyzed from the waist down. Swordsmith is picked up by the blast and flies in a surprisingly elegant parabola before landing, lightly, back in his chair in the audience box. He looks around, blinking and confused. Unholy lands 10 feet back, dizzy and sore but otherwise fine.
Wasted is still laying on the ground, bloody and bruised, with his shackle angled up toward the ceiling.
"Hey guys, the first person to bring me both ears of Wasted Bastard will get 5 DD from me! 5 DD for those ears! An easy paycheck, is it not?"
Yell at people to bring me body parts for money. 5 DD for his ears!

Quote from: http://einsteinianroulette.wikia.com/wiki/Dead_Man_Running#Audience
They can also spend DD to buy things from the same vending machine the inmates buy things from, at a rate of 10 DD for one point. These things can be thrown into the match, for contestants to grab and use, or used by the audience member themself (including guns).

Continue biting faces!
pick up a particularly pointy bone and begin shanking people.Smurf and Pariah, their brains running on a non-specific type of violence, immediately attack each other. Smurf bites out Pariah's left Eye and Pariah impales the weasel and the smashes him into the ground, killing the rodent.
Wipe fat guy viscera off my face and go buy some more beer. Pop one open and drink it while going back down the ramp. When I get to the bottom, introduce the bottle to Wasted Bastard's head.In terms of alcohol content or physical durability?
How strong are these beers, anyways?
Spoiler: Wasted Bastard: Blue Team, ??? Points (click to show/hide)
Stand my ground at the bottom of the ramp. If anyone comes down, wildly assault them with teeth, bludgeon them with the shackle, and try that combination again in case killing audience members earned me any points. Otherwise try to recover from being mobbed.
((I'm curious to know how strong these beers are, myself. Judging my the amount everyone's been drinking I'm gonna assume they're similar to normal beer in terms of alcohol per volume. Anyway, since my remaining bottle of beer probably ain't flammable...))

Doomblade187- 7DD
"Now I might have a shot... Let's give this a try."
Charge down the ramp and beat Wasted Bastard up.
Two men charge back down the ramp and engage Wasted Bastard in less then honorable combat. Wasted bashes one of them in the head with his Shackle and then starts gnawing on the others arm before he gets a bottle broken over his dome and kicked in the ribs.
And then a flaming bottle of highly alcoholic liquid arcs in from somewhere in the crowd and breaks across Wasted's shackle and suddenly the entire confused melee is on fire.

Stop, Drop, and Roll! Remove clothing if it's on fire.The beers are pretty strong for what they are, like 10%. But there's harder booze available for the same price.

You flop onto the ground and start rolling around, stripping naked as you do. You manage to put yourself out but get reasonably crispy in the process.
With my dying breath, call a swarm of weasels to avenge me!*Squeak*
It fails to summon anything, including pity.
Pick up dead bodies and snack on them while watching the fighting.
Buy three bottles and a lighter, unless I already have one. Light all the bottles on fire then throw them into the crowd of combatants. If I lack the means to light them, throw the bottles anyway.
Take advantage of being on fire. After all, it's a hallucination. Bash people with my flaming limbs. When my clothes burn off, scar people for life by running past with Flaming Glory. Keep biting people, working through the stands now.Wasted bastard breaks free of the two men grabbing at him and charges up into the stands, screeching and flailing his burning limbs like a mad man. He leaps onto DP and catches him in a burning bear hug before bouncing off and delivering a series of rapid punches to Xan's gut.Spoiler: Wasted Bastard: Blue Team, 0 Points (click to show/hide)

Assess flame damage to clothing. If it's too burnt to put back on, loot one of the bodies that is now lying around.

"Dammit Larry, it's my sammich. Git yer own!"Larry manages to get a hold of the sandwich with one hand and a very gentle tug of war ensues in which neither side wants to destroy the sandwich, and as such are very tender with their grip and tugging.
Keep Larry the hell away from the sammich. Maybe with some sort of chase scene with Benny hill music playing in the background. It's mine, dammit. Maybe if I happen to pass Cromwell's corpse while protecting my sammich, move his mouth while saying his name in a high-pitched voice so he can report for Roll call too. Could get a few laughs.Spoiler: Mason Caldwell-Blue Barbarians-9 points (click to show/hide)

Go to DMR site, search 'propose event' box. See if there's any sort of DD reward for useful ideas.Sure. We'll give you 5 dd if your idea is used, 20 more if it produces something tv worthy.
"Sandwich!?"You stand beside the sandwich tug of war and shout SAMMICH! repeatedly. If someone were to walk into the room right now they'd think you three belonged to some kind of sandwich worshiping cult. And they probably wouldn't be far off.

AND WELCOME BACK ONCE AGAIN TO DEAD. MAN. RUNNING! We've got a great show today, including a new contestant, which I'm afraid we don't have time to tell you about. Something about a national memorial for those lost in blah blah blah, the station is making the episode run a little short today so we've gotta get straight into the TEAM CHALLENGE!
The Challenge today is called Cheese Grater! Don't blame me for the name, I think it was thought up by the mistress of some channel executive when her mouth wasn't full of something else equally underwhelming and flaccid! Now the game itself takes place on this grid of metal beams here, over a pool of water. Red team starts on the left, blue on the right, and the last one still dry wins! Simple eh? But thats not all folks, Not only will they have to balance on the beams and avoid being knocked off by the other team, but occasionally we're gonna sweep the entire area with an obstacle bar! Sometimes it's a nice, padded, boring bar. Sometimes it's a single strand of piano wire at throat height! YOU NEVER KNOW!
Now, while the teams get into position, place your bets!

Have you seen this man? His name is Wasted Bastard. I'm trying to track down members of my extended family, and heard that Wasted was last seen here.
The man then looks about suspiciously before realizing something, and shoots out his hand to shake that of whomever he's speaking to.
Oh, yes, my name's Sneaky Bastard. A pleasure to meet you, and I hope if you met my second cousin, he didn't dope you or anything... and I hope I'm not too late, either.
See, every time I manage to track down a cousin of mine, I discover I'm too late and they're already dead. I've got a pretty extensive list of dead cousins.
He whips out a folded chain of photgraphs. It unfolds down to the floor, and the folded section rolls all the way down into the arena before it's fully unfolded. Sneaky Bastard grins.
I'm pretty proud that I found all these. I... guess it's sad that they're all dead, though. So, what's you're name?

Sexy's children each went on to form their own families. Me own pap is Long Winded Bastard, and Wasted Bastard was Sexy the Second's seventh child. Heh heh, do you want to know how many wives Sexy the Second managed to get? Forty five, not counting his half-sisters. Me uncle is one smoooooth Bastard. His own firstborn, Sexy the Third, though, is right here;
Sneaky points to his reel of photos.
Died when he tried to drug a girl at a party and would up taking them himself. Managed to produce one heir, not that that means anything unless your name is Lucky or Rich. Speaking of Rich, I heard that Rich Bastard the Thirteenth sponsors this show. He'd be me seventh cousin, twice removed, so he wouldn't be on me list of cousins, but I'll be visiting him one day for a loan, too. Most Bastards get loans from their generation's Rich Bastard, it's basically tradition.
Sneaky finishes folding up his photographs.
Nice meeting yo', 'Sword', but I smell beer now, and will be off.
And then he just seems to disappear from sight and is quickly forgotten.

You could say we're in (3 | 5) if we're in the third intersection from the left, fifth from the bottom and (3.5 | 5) if we're somewhere between intersection 3 and 4.
I could maybe draw a small map later.
EDIT: Start walking forward slowly, shield raised, banging the shackle on the shield for intimidation. Focus on getting ready to counterattack whoever is in front of me by shoving them off the beam with the shield.

Gilbert sits down on the beam and wraps his legs around it, crossing his arms and looking very sure of himself. Navarro and Destio both advance as one unit behind Destio's shield, with Destio in front and Navarro in back. Larry inches himself forward to stand at the intersection between two beams and DP doesn't do much of anything. Bubba makes a mad charge forward, hollering incoherently and almost immediately trips. He goes flying forward and slams chest first into a beam as he falls, his arms automatically wrapping around it.
Mason's suit distorts, arms and legs swelling with an odd, angular musculature and takes off across the beams, leaping from one beam to the next. He crosses the arena in 6 leaping steps, landing on the edge of the sixth beam with both feet, a few behind Magarth. Magarth, who was halfway to the next intersection, turns to face him, and sees the attack coming. Mason leaps off the beam, spinning as he swings the electrified sword straight at Magarth's midsection. Magarth can't dodge it, at least not completely, and sure as hell can't block it, so he does the best thing he can: He throws himself backwards. The Katana cleaves a deep gash through Magarth's side, but doesn't strike a fatal blow; instead Magarth simply drops into the water below, trailing blood and a litany of curses. Mason catches the next beam with one hand, jerks to a halt in mid air and yanks himself up as the suit leaks steam and the muscles deflate, two charges used up.

Mason's suit bulges again, and he takes off towards Navarro and Destio, but Navarro is faster. Destio throws his shield up, blocking the beam, but Navarro takes a snap shot with his Shackle, his aim dead on. The shackle releases an angry hum and transforms into a tube like shape that emits a beam of dull red light. He sweeps the beam across Mason and the man stops dead in his tracks, his athlete's suit tensing as it uses up it's last charges to protect him. Mason is left standing there, his suit venting steam, while the wall behind him has an angry molten gash a foot wide cut into it, with a small gap where the beam was block by his body.

The shackle changes in an instant and a two foot long metal spike stabs out of it like a pneumatic hammer.

"HA!" Navarro yells and fires again. The dull red beam of heat leaps from his weapon and he sweeps it in a wide arc, aiming slightly downward and trying to bisect Mason. Mason legs it, running down the length of one of the metal supports with the beam in hot pursuit. The beam cleaves through most of the bars on the south side of the room and the entire grid groans frighteningly and shifts, tilting to one side. Mason manages to escape his likely death, but the arena is looking rather poorly for it.
In the mean time, Bubba manages to climb back up and punch Larry in the back of the head, because he is being helpful. Larry doesn't get his chance to shoot because he is being punched. Destio keeps his shield up and pointed toward Mason, advancing slowly, but being a lot more careful because of the shifting environment. And Gilbert Clenches his buttocks fit to leave impressions on the steel.

Shield NAV from audience and enemy team while slowly backing off towards towards the West. Be ready to dodge or prevent any sort of obstacle from hitting me.About a half a second after the airhorn sounds there is a loud, metal clink and the sound of something being pulled taut. And then a small opening appears all along the wall and a thin metal wire zips across the arena at ankle height.Spoiler: Destio Dravani (click to show/hide)
((EDIT: Really, really, really thankful for that shield. Oh, and Reply #1 updated.))
Gilbert tries to hop up from a sitting position but manages only to levitate his butt maybe 2 inches in the air before slamming back down on his tailbone and then losing his balance and toppling over and into the water below. Mason sees the wire coming and leaps straight up as hard as he can. He clears the wire and then lands chest first on the metal beam, arms and legs flailing off on either side. His impressive bellyflop knocks the wind straight out of him, but he remains on the beam. Bubba doesn't even see the wire coming. It sweeps by him like a hot knife through butter and cuts him clean off his feet; quite literally, it severs both of his feet and sends him face down onto the bar.
Larry sees the wire coming and, from an almost laying position on the bar, pushes himself up into the air with both hands and feet and then comes back down after it passes under him, completely uninjured and doing fine. He takes Aim at Navarro, who has also just leap over the wire, and squeezes off his last shot. It goes wide and misses Navarro by more then two feet. Destio sees the wire coming and his feet clear it, but his shield doesn't. He keeps hold of the shield and the impact drags him off the beam and throws him several feet. His shield catches in the corner of one of the grid spaces, supported across the two converging beams, with him below it, hanging on for dear life.
look up.Yeah, there's definitely an airhorn somewhere up in the rafters.
The Chateau de Senor Ganesh looks pretty good. You reserve a table and send a message to Holly about dinner.QuoteThere's a few places near you, most of them fusion joints; Indo-mexo-venusian and Austro-martian and the like.
See if there's one that looks nice, but not excessively expensive. Check whether one can reserve a table online. Send Holly a message asking whether she's available sometime after this episode of DMR.
Fire another shot at Navarro. Try to figure out what the airhorn was all about.(I'm not sure how many more shots you've got.)
You fire again, and this time the shot clips him, raising a little burst of blood from his left arm where it cut a shallow gash. He screams and grabs his arm and then yells something inaudible up at the stands.

You can't enjoy your money if you're dead. That applies to all of you in the audience.
And Hapah can more easily run out of the Arena or pay someone to protect him from someone trying to hit him with his hands, while it would be much harder for him to protect himself from a maniac with an semi-alien artifact gunning for him.[/another thinly veiled suggestion]

Who do you think Hapah would think is more capable of murdering him? You don't even know any long range shackle combos. You have no long range weapons.
Plus, that move is cowardly and irresponsible and you know it. You're willing to threaten defenseless people to get your way. I'm threatening them in the name of justice and order, as a response to your threats. If we have it your way, then the audience will turn into a free for all where nobody is safe and everyone is trying to kill everybody else to get their money or get them to support one team or the other. Without some semblance of peace, the audience would be completely worthless. And you, sir and dear gentlemen of the audience, are trying to destroy that peace with your threats. Don't you see what this will lead to? Are a few DDs really worth causing so much chaos, chaos that will probably lead to you loosing those DDs anyway?
So please, stop your threats and let us do this like gentlemen, OK?
EDIT: I'd be willing to take that chance. I'd profit either way.

((That right there is bull. Justice and order? There were no threats until you decided "Oh hey, instead of trying to bid more I'll shoot the guy with the gun if he doesn't do what I want." I did it as a response to your threat, since you were the one to declare it fair game. I never asked anyone to threaten Hapah, they did that on their own. Nor did I threaten anyone defenseless at any point, since Hapah has his rifle and the rest of you I would target have Shackles. I was content to leave the audience to their own devices. How about you close the forums for a bit before this turns into some sort of homage to GWG, think it over, and then drop it so we can get back to the game and our various bids and empty threats made in good fun because it is, after all, a game.))And here we see the contestants lack of honor continuing, dear ladies and gentlemen of the audience. I'm certain that his campaing of slander against me, those vile attempts at misdirection won't confuse you, but just to make sure you do not forget the facts of the conversation, please read the below and judge for yourselves:
"I swear to the Host that if I survive, I will rip your fun bits off, feed them to you, and then cut your god damn intestines out for that comment, Gilbert."
((See that? Threat made in good fun. Unless Gilbert isn't there, at which point it wasn't said and they are totally BFFs. Gee, I hope Larry won't get jealous.))
((Plus, if you turn on me and I survive, I'll just offer a point to the first audience member to bring me your head. Which, coupled with the bets on me, would probably be a larger profit to them than they would get from you. Heck, you may not even get to keep a full point's worth of DD after paying off the mob, and you'll only have one more bullet to defend yourself. Not to mention the reds said they'd pay if you shot me, not shot at me and missed. Quite the conundrum.))Now is that or is that not a threat against Hapah, something that my dear opponent claimed he did as a response to my threat? As you can clearly see here, my threat was a direct response to him trying to use his superior firepower to intimidate the audience. What an audacity, trying to turn my own argument against me with such false statements. I'm certain that an audience as smart as you can judge this crude attempt at deception and reach the correct conclusions about who is in the right here, about who has your best interests in mind.
I'm really not being serious here (if it wasn't obvious from my tone). Because, really, what kind of serious person talks like that except politicians? I'm just doing this for fun.

We'll just give you those monorazor blades without costing a point. Alright, secondary space accountant? Man, this is gonna be really underwhelming if one of you botches and just dies instantly.

Mason and Destio's shackles transform, once again taking on the shape of the monoatomic sword. Mason moves first, taking a few hasty steps forward across the beam and swinging low at Destio's ankles. Destio leaps backwards and, in the same spinning motion, partially severs the beam Mason is on. Destio steps back, behind the cut line as the beam sags dangerously with Mason on it.

Mason leaps just as destio cuts the beam, leaping to the nearest bar and then leaping forward again, toward Destio's legs.

If it is a high obstacle, duck it and attack his legs. If it is low, jump it and aim for the shoulder of his Shackle arm or maybe diagonally through his chest.

You'll have trouble both dodging and attacking, but not as much as I would have if I did the same. If you succeed, you'll have a better chance at attacking me. But if you fail, you'll be open to attack, maybe with a limb missing or even knocked off. But you don't need to worry about limbs as much because you have the points to replace them at the end of the episode, so again, less of a risk for you.

My arm. Those sparks. thought Destio as he regained his balance. Some kind of vibroblade? But how can it be so durable? Perhaps it is a property of the shackle itself that keeps it intact... His eyes widened as a figurative light-bulb lit up in his mind. That's it! I just need to time this right.

"My name is Mason Caldwell. You killed my Larry. Prepare to be knocked off."Destio turns to look around for the incoming obstacle, but Mason doesn't take his eyes off his opponent. He charges and swings, slicing at Destio's shoulder. But he miscalculates and the swing is too early; it cuts a shallow gash across Destio's shoulder and left pectoral but does no significant damage. Destio staggers from the blow, but when the wire comes, this time slicing in at chest height, he manages to get his blade up and block it. The wire snaps like a high tension cable, but hits neither contestant as it whips into the walls and then continues, limply, along it's track before disappearing back into the wall.

Oh, I guess I got confused when you said he jumped back on the beam. That kinda ruins my plan. Well, screw it, I'll just go for a simple attack then.Neither fighter attacks outright, Mason waits for the obstacle to come, hoping he can take advantage of it to strike down his opponent. Destio waits for Mason to strike, hoping to parry and then knock his opponent off. So when the obstacle comes, it is a bit of a surprise. Not a fast moving wire intent on cutting off limbs, but a wall, moving in from either side, intent on crushing the contestants flat when the two walls met in the middle.

((I vote for ending the challenge and letting the audience pick a winner. I think we fought pretty well, and it should have served as good entertainment.))"I Think the Audience should decide!"
"Kill'em both"
"Yeah"
"Thumbs down, much squish"
"I retract my statement!"
"My name is Mason Caldwell. You killed my Larry. Prepare to die."
Finish him! Stand up and cut him in half. Or take his head off. Parry any strikes and go for the kill if I can counter. If all else fails, tackle him off the beam. Try to land on top of him when we hit the ground. If I still have to dodge the walls and they are only moving over the top of the beams, hang off the bottom if there is a grip. If not, wedge Destio between the walls.Spoiler: Mason Caldwell-Blue Barbarians-9 points (click to show/hide)
((The bloodthirsty audience strikes again. Plus, I don't think the host would let us get away with it. Sooo...))
Stab! Kill! Annihilate! Exterminate! Aim for the head and vitals.Also ask from R2 to shut down that trash compactor.
If the wall comes too close and I fail to kill the man in time, then try to use theforceshackle as a wedge to keep the walls from crushing me, knowing that this would probably lead to my shackle arm being broken.Spoiler: Destio Dravani (click to show/hide)
The walls that were slowly crusting inward suddenly rush forward and then stop, constricting the battlefield to an area just slightly wider then the men's shoulders.
No more running! NO MORE DODGING! FINISH THIS! Or I'll come down there and finish it for you!
Their movements restricted, the two men have little choice in how they fight. They both stand and bring blows down on one another, almost in perfect unison. The blades clash and they stand there for a moment, trying to overpower each others as the weapons vibrate against each other, trying to skip and ricochet off each other, filling the alley between the crushing walls with a spray of sparks and metallic squealing. Finally the blades bounce off each other and the two men hop backwards before charging in and making one last swing. The hum of their blades dulls just for an instant as it bites through flesh. Destio stumbles back, his shackle arm part severed, part torn off at the shoulder, along with his right ear and part of his scalp and face. Mason stands still, leaning against the wall.
"Damn." he says. "And I was so close."
And then a line of red spray traces itself down from his forehead to his groin and he falls, split neatly in two, onto the beam and then down to the floor below.
WE HAVE A WINNER! Medics, please see that our winner doesn't die; at least not till we can get an interview.

Navarro came in 3rd and got himself two points, Larry came in second, by a few seconds, and got himself 3 points! And you've come in First and netted yourself not only 5 points, not only one point for everyone on your team, but a special prize. Lets see what you've won!
A Chrome sphere descends from above and the host grabs it and cracks it open like one big Easter Egg. Inside is a slip of paper.
You've won a replacement limb! And none too soon! Is there anything you want to say to the crowd?
So Magarth is winning in the votes for punishment. I'm consulting with Radio about an idea he had for a punishment game, but assume that next turn the votes will be tallied and the game will begin! Lets just hope either of them are around for it.

Crew cage match. The other one seems too easy to game, at least for the first couple rounds. Just choose rock the first three times.I disagree. It's a 2/3 chance of being attacked and a 1/2 chance of getting hit. (Or less, if a previous hit has disabled them. Plus, Magarth already has a peg leg, which means less chances of dodging. And he can't know what the next attack will be so he can't prepare for it.) He has 2/3 chances of gaining a point and he needs about 5 points, which means he will have to go through the above at least 5 times. So depending on the lethality of the incoming projectiles, this could actually be much more lethal than other punishment games.

Corpse Mason: We've, through arcane, unholy, and mostly mechanical means Knitted the corpse of Mason back together and animated it! Mostly we use it as a security guard and delivery boy, but it's still got it's old katana clenched in one cold hand.
Senkoku: An old Genehack soldier from the Rat King Assassin squads. Looks thin and frail, but don't let that fool you, he's killed more people then the black plague. We use him to vanish annoying contestants!
Jal "The Black King" Koski:He came here after his notorious Gabled Doorway Motel Massacre, rose through the ranks and eventually won his one desire: TO KILL EVEN MORE! So we offered him a job, of course! Now he dismembers contestants with is bare hands and their own weapons, much to the delight of almost all involved.
Un-Uk: Captured from a clan of de-teched, evolutionarily divergent humans from an icy planet somewhere in the far reaches of the human domain, Un-Uk and his tribe laid siege to the forces sent there to retake the planet, smashing them down with nothing but their fearful brutish strength! Once the area had finally been cleared, we found Poor Un-Uk still alive and fighting, despite missing both legs, an arm and part of his head! So naturally we grabbed him, gave him robotic limb replacements and now feed him on raw meat and unfortunate contestants!

*Magarth walks into the fray with fireworks exploding above him, behind him is a mural of every president of the United States, with each of their heads replaced with vegetables and all of their hands replaced by Al Pacino. In front of the mural is a statue of Joan of Arc stabbing Babe Ruth in the face with a poisonous ball point pen. Joan is angry, Babe is in pain.The Host calmly walks over towards you and there's a loud clanking sound as a 20 foot cube shaped cage lowers down from the rafters and settles into place around the two of you. The cage is bright polished chrome, but the inside is lined with 8 inch conical spikes, which somehow undercuts all attempts at modernness.
"LEETLE BEETCH."
We're going to put 5 minutes on the clock. He says, carefully leaning his cane against one of the cage walls as he unbuttons the jacket of his white suit and hangs it on one spike. He removes his gloves, laying them on the same spike, and then rolls up his sleeves. If you are alive at the end of those 5 minutes, then you get to proceed. If not, well, then you don't. He picks up his cane and walks back out to the center of the cage and stands, arms spread, cane in one hand, waiting. The clock starts when you move. Lets try to make this fun for the viewer, shall we?

You run towards the Host and leap into a slide tackle at the last moment, trying to smash him off his feet. As you slide in, he brings the cane down and lifts himself off the ground. You proceed to slide, groin first, into the cane.

"YOU ARE [slur]"You punch the host in the dangly bits as hard as you can. He wobbles a bit with the force of the blow but doesn't flinch. Instead he just swings his cane straight toward your skull. You manage to dodge by throwing yourself down onto your back, but the blow still glaces off your scalp and stings mightily. You kick, rather anemically from your current position and the host counters hopping over the blow and off your leg.

Get up, assume proper fighting stance. If Host attacks, counter-throw him into the spike wall.The Host doesn't charge. He walks right straight up to you, right into your face. And then he takes an exaggerated baseball swing straight at your head with his cane. You duck, with relative ease and grab at his arms. You get hold of the exposed flesh and are shifting your weight to throw him when the exposed flesh gets hold of you. His skin and seemingly the muscle tissue under it has flowed up like little fingers and caught hold of your hands.

Take the opportunity to snatch his cane and beat him about the skull with it.You grab the bottom of the cane and yank hard. It comes away in your hands, or at least part of it does. The shaft of the cane splits from the head, sliding off to reveal something hidden inside it. It's not a sword cane, so to speak. It's more an ice pick cane: hidden inside the cane is a metal spike, a good foot and a half long and needle sharp, attached to the cane handle.
Oh my, and here I wanted to use protection! But I guess if you'd prefer it without, I won't complain.
His arm coils up, using the spike like a rapier, and he seems to be taking careful aim at you.

Point the shackle at him and pull down with the middle and ring fingers.You huck the piece of cane at the Host's head and roll backwards as he ducks under it. You bring the shackle up to fire at him as you come out of the roll, but get a bit too excited and squeeze the triggers while it's still only halfway up. The weapon discharges into the ground, firing some sort of grayish metal sphere thats covered in translucent green goo onto the floor. It sticks there, beeping. The Host raises an eyebrow at you.

So Magarth is dead. The Host is missing some parts but seems completely unperturbed, which is rather frightening when the pieces missing are a chunk of his head.
Geez it's been so long...we're on to the individual challenge now aren't we?

Anyway, I'm not part of the audience, but I say put them in. Yes, I know they are my teammates, but more injury=more fun and more incentive for them to do well. And, if they do well, maybe they'll gain some bonus points for their efforts that they can use to replace their missing limbs.))

Alright, here's the arena, and here is how this works:
Yellow are bumpers, they bounce you.
Gray are pillars. They stop or redirect you,depending how you hit them.
Purple are traps. They do unpleasant things to the person in the ball.
Black are the death pits. You want to get your opponent in there.
Each turn, one of the people in the balls controls the arena orientation, tilting it toward the left, right, up or down (the way tilted is the way it is slanted down towards. So tilting left would lower the left and raise the right.) and then the next person goes the next turn. The balls build up momentum if they move in the same direction over two or more turns.
Alright, lets decide who gets control first by....I know! Whoever can guess what I was doing this weekend, or get closest. The entire team can guess. Or anyone can, I suppose, just say which team you're guessing for.

You realize both the players are on the same team, right?I thought Larry volunteered. Toaster, why did you let this happen? It was Blue team's turn to win a challenge. Bad Larry, bad.
I'm gonna guess that you were shearing sheep.
Is a 10 yard penalty in DMR equal to a loss of limb, PW? Because it should be.

Hold on, hold on. We need Someone on red vs someone on blue. Or at least for one of these red guys to switch teams. What are you two trying to pull here. 10 Yard penalty.
Does it really make a difference if it's a fight to the death?
If yes, I'll freely back down, then! Death before joining BLUE, that's for sure.
In fact, I'll freely let someone from the blue team volunteer in any case. Don't put me in, PW.

Edit:
On the other hand, it is very dramatic because the last original members of red and blue team facing eachother in a challenge to the death. I'll do it, but it better have a good reward.
Post by: Beirus on November 10, 2014, 03:38:27 pm
Is it too late to back down? Because this challenge seems absurdly lethal, more fitting for an elimination round than a individual challenge.Did Navarro not have the guts to go through with the challenge at first?
