Slap Trevor for acting like a girl before following those on the other side. ''It's way too crowded in this pool.''

(damn, minus 2 hp from sucking my finger. Hoped by not gulping it I would have lessened some of the effects XD (probably have mind you))

Thinking back on it, Viktor realizes that he really should have paid better attention to what the other contestants were doing.
Even though nobody got fucked by a black tile until this turn? :(
((That was in reference to the spikes coming out of the walls when someone steps on the north or south concrete border. A lead-in to the next roll. ;)))
Actually, I thought that only parts of the concrete border contain spikes, since the guys to the north and south managed to get a different distance before getting attacked.

((Note the different rolls. One had a [6] and made it a decent distance before being forced to dodge away, while the other rolled a [2] and only made it a couple steps before being impaled. It's an RTD, not a Flip Coin to Dodge; there are different degrees of success and failure, and things won't be exactly the same for everyone unless they get identical rolls. Even then, I'll vary the flavor to make it interesting. Incidentally, Viktor wasn't the first to discover that the black tiles had their own dangers. I know it seems obvious, but if you only pay attention to your own rolls and results, you're going to miss a lot of useful information that your character would be privy to.))

Jack tries to reach the door, making sure to step only on tiles that have not harmed anyone else.

Georgio hops out of the pool, heading for the "door".

[5]

He makes it there without being hurt. He then pulls on the doorknob.

[6]

He successfully removes the doorknob from the block of metal, falling back onto the white tile behind him.

-[2] HP

((Five actions in one turn? I think not. >.>))
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Belili decides to help Georgio.

[2]

Belili makes sure to stomp on Georgio while walking over him, but slips and falls on the same white tile.

-[2] HP

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Malcolm tears at his shirt.

[2]

He completely shreds it, leaving him with nothing useful. What a shame his body isn't a very good one for television. He notices that Georgio has already pulled the doorknob off. The metal block has raised into the ceiling, and a real door is now visible in the wall.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Viktor twiddles his thumbs.

[5], [5]

Ladies and gentlemen, the hands of a champion!

He notices the block raising into the ceiling.

[3]

Viktor pulls on the handle of the door, but it just won't open!
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Trevor starts splashing the others with the "water".

[1]

He gets everyone in the room wet, soaking them with the liquid. What a shame that the contestants are all pasty 30-somethings. Except for Dominic and Jack, who're pasty 20-somethings. Ratings plummit.

Trevor now has -150 CASH MONEY.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Dominic

[5]

slaps the shit out of Trevor.

Trevor loses [4] HP

Dominic has just become the Fan Favorite!

He tries to follow that up by reaching the other side.

[2]

Dominic slips on a puddle of liquid, falling on the white tile next to Georgio.

-[1] HP
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Jack

[5]

 8)

books it across the room, skidding to a halt on the far side. Dayum.

Get to a safe spot and try to regenerate SOME health by will alone before following the first person into the door.

I lol'd. Bolded shit was a nice touch. :D

Viktor retreats to the tile he was on before the block rose. He twiddles his thumbs. If someone opens the door, he slips inside BEHIND the person who did it.

Also, how did Jack get across the entire room in a single turn? o_0 Also, is it me or you are actively trying to murder Georgio?

((Jack got a perfect roll, and Diabolus specified that he was going for the door while using tiles that he knew were safe.

As for the latter? Making stupid choices gets a character hurt, and getting bad rolls gets a character hurt. Both together? Yep.))

I just love killing my characters. Assume this was my experimental round.

Oh, CRAP! Really?!

Also, I'm surprised the ratings haven't skyrocketed from my character being like this. I mean, they skyrocketed with Survivor with Russel. I mean, they kept bringing him back! Everyone seems to love the jerk.

Follow everyone else (basking a little in the glow of being the fan favourite). It's a boring action, but after slipping up and faceplanting, I'm sure everyone'll understand caution.

"That's assault. You'll be hearing from my lawyers after this."

Walk across safe tiles to the door.
