Classroom Deathmatch - Battle Royale Forum PnP

Grakelin:
Not sure if anybody else has ever come across Classroom Deathmatch, the game put out by Atarashi Games (the guys who also made the hilariously named Panty Explosion). Basically, it's Battle Royale in pen and paper form.

It's also extremely free form. The players get to do most of the describing. The game is guided by dice, but only in terms of 'success' or 'fail' (similar to RtD, except less of the power is in the hands of the DM). The 'gamey' part is about resource management: Your stats are the amount of dice you get to roll. You can roll as much as you have, but once you do, they're gone (so if I have 9 in the 'Fire' stat, and roll 5 of them to try to punch you, I have 4 left). Any time one of the dice you roll comes up as a 5 or more, you have won a success. The details of your success is determined by your "Best Friend", another player chosen by you. If you fail, the task of describing it comes down to your "Rival". The sourcebook gave an example of somebody trying to shoot another character: If he succeeds, his Best Friend says that the other character takes the bullet to the head and dies. Victoly! If he fails, the particularly nasty Rival claims that the firearm explodes in our hero's hand, tearing it apart and embedding shrapnel in his chest and throat.

You are randomly assigned a student from a class of 50. The first one you have will almost certainly die. When this happens, a random (and still alive) student will be assigned to you as a replacement. Rinse and repeat until there are less characters left than players (at which point, it will be close to done anyways).

The class has been sent off to an enclosed location. At the end of 5 days, there must be only one student left alive, or nano-explosives will automatically kill everybody. If you are the last student standing, you win. Congratulations.

You can also win by escaping, but that's nearly impossible.

There are flashbacks and stuff, too.

I'm kind of confused with the player thing though.
What does it mean assigned as a replacement?
