((In my defense: do you know how many times in the past I had to pm people so that they'd post? This doesn't come out of the blue, hell pw even warned people this might happen. It's just that I'm not seeing a lot of other options to still save this. And if I start to play other's characters, they might as well not be there. Either way, I'll be looking for a possible solution. Hold all of your various horses.))

Go check out the offices near the center. Take machete with me.

((Just to clarify:

I've decided not to continue on playing, but PW and Radio agreed with me to roll back the last turn and just leave Sam as a NPC.))

Follow along with the machete wielding guy. Make sure I have easy access to my baton; that hallucination may have been not real, but it still was unnerving.

Brian rubbed his eyes.  Did he... was he...

He looked around.  Everyone was alive, and no one was bleeding.  Could...

Brian shook his head and starting seeing what usable material was around.  He patted his pistol to feel its reassuring weight, then starting poking around to see what he could use to reinforce the gate.


See what's around that could reinforce the gate.  Big pieces of sheet metal, bars, the like.  Start a pile near the gates.

Look warily up at VW tower. Make sure hand is still bandaged, distribute food to everyone who wants some.

Here is the .rar of all the materials. There are surprisingly few.

The general idea for the rest of the game was going to be that I'd roll to get an effect every day and play them out. More then likely that junkyard of yours would be assaulted by something eventually, or reality would start to warp in ways that made hiding out there no longer safe (or at least made things less safe).  The idea was always just to keep making the world weirder and more dangerous till either the end occurred or you all died. Very simple, honestly.

At this point I ask if there was anything else anyone wanted to ask about this unfortunately illfated game?

It was fun while it lasted, and I hope you and the others enjoyed it as well at least.


Thanks for wrapping it up, now we have some closure.

I agree- interesting concept and experiment, sadly a victim of scheduling.

It is. Appear to be two:
Quote
Angel Fall: Giants of light fall from the sky, destroying massive areas of the city. Very little left.

Monoliths awaken: The monoliths open and unfold into grand alien machines. The world is sucked somewhere altogether more frightening.

I do wish this had gone on to the conclusion, even without me. Would have been interesting.

Also,
Quote
9. Time becomes distorted. Things run backwards and forwards: Glasses fall up from the ground and onto table tops, a man is trapped in a loop of being shot, though the attacker and his gun are long gone.
Eep.

Well, it was interesting to play, even if it did get held up and shot more viciously than Uncle Ben. Glad to have been a part of it!
