Well, if you want to get on the waitlist, you'll need to change your character because at the moment he's not very appropiate for the context. Sorry for not telling you, I really should have said it earlier.

Ugh. Changed it. I was really looking forward to playing the non-serious route.

One of the plot threads is about a kid who gets shot. This isn't a comedy.

So? If the game isn't a comedy, I will be a comedy. Of errors. And stupidity. And hopefully quite a bit of death.

Barring a time paradox, there won't be another death until we dip into the waitlist.

Particularly with any degree of precision and usability that goes beyond .

That goes beyond what?

"Hm. Not aluminum or something so malleable...not sure why I would expect that, though."

Keep looking for bucket replacements or repairers.

"Really? You don't want friends or anything like that? Weird. I've always wanted friends...not that I've been very good at it."

"I was hungry. It had been a few days since I had eaten what could be called a meal...that's how it was, then, if you weren't lucky. I never was. Then, when I was going through town, I saw the store with no one in it and food ready to eat. Who could resist? Certainly no kid."

I have some questions.

1. Where do the characters come from and how do they get here? For that matter, are we all from the same place?
2. How about the loot? I think it was originally mentioned that it came from some kind of loot dimension, but why does it appear?
3. Most especially, where do the living and/or sentient loots come from?
4. Why are the initial loots formed from the waiver? Why aren't they from the Loot Dimension as well?
5. Would it be possible for the people who give us the waivers to transform them in their own dimension, creating a variety of magical items? If so, why don't they just do that? It seems like a much more sustainable venture than this.
6. What happens to our bodies when we die?
7. What happens to our loot when we die?
8. Is this world spherical, toroidal, flat, cubical, or what?
9. How much of the loot is determined by the generator and how much is left up to your interpretation? For instance, was Aurwyn's personality a lucky chance or something you made? How about the bookwyrm's growth? That one tentacled shuriken thing's tentacles? The boilingness of the boiling-mud-frog?
10. Do you expect to get access to your old computer with the old loot generator on it any time soon?

-----

And now for the action.

Pat the mudfrog on the head back to congratulate it. Back, to avoid getting eaten.

See if I can figure out what kind of magic the coin has. If I have no idea, or you have no mechanic for "guessing" powers (like TIoM has) , then pick it up and prepare to duck.

I'll have the Ted and Magnum accelerate (0,-1,0), or straight down.

Bouncer: Any time someone lands on this space from the left (ie from the 1 direction), one who wishes to win must make one additional lap, from 100 to 1. Any time someone lands on this space from the right (ie the 100 direction), one who wishes to win must make one less lap. (If this causes someone to be past the number of laps needed to win, he does so automatically; if multiple players have past the number needed to win, the one farthest along in the current lap wins.)

Going to have to nix that one.  No win-con changes.

Oh. I thought that was okay.

Hm...how about this:

"Sloth Demon"
A sloth demon resides here. Each turn, after choosing your movement number, 1d6 is rolled. If the number is lower than your movement, you move that number of spaces instead of the number you rolled.

Also also, can we make an effect that explicitly affects the player who created it?

No.

Anyone who didn't see it coming OOC is silly. It's the exact buildup from Paper Mario.

I didn't!
But then again, I never player any Mario RPGs. Or many Mario games, period.

Umm... Shoot the warship?!

Not enough dakka.

You'll be waiting much longer for that. See, there is a chronic state in the universe known as "Insufficient Dakka," which involves there not being sufficient quantities of dakka. Despite the best attempts of orks, this problem has never been solved, and said attempts suggest that it's best that way.
