Curse of Ret-Talus Round IX Sign Ups

[Jebuh214]

Curse of Ret-Talus
Round IX Sign Ups

If you don't know what the "Curse of Ret-Talus" is, you should stop reading right now and check out the rules, found here (http://www.plaidhatgames.com/sum_forums/showthread.php?t=708), or the previous games, or better yet, both!

If you already know what you're in for and are still interested in playing, now is the time to sign-up. Registration will be open thru 11:00PM (EST) Friday October 21st. This round of CoRT games includes two game options: 'Basic' CoRT (mandatory for first-timers), and 'Advnaced CoRT (for those who’re more experienced)'. Identity PMs for all games should go out by Sunday (October 23rd), and the games will start Monday, October 24th (at the latest). I don't currently know how many caves there will be, but game sizes will be limited to 24 players maximim (including host).


GAME-PLAY TIMETABLES will be set by individual Storytellers immediately before the games begin. Games hosted by me (Jebuh214) will follow the schedule below, and I recommend it as a standard:

Caves:

DAYS will last 2 real world days.
NIGHTS will last 1 real world days.

...but again, individual Storytellers are free to set their own schedules, so long as there are at least 24-hours in each NIGHT and 24-72 hours in each DAY.

And now for the fine print. If all my typing puts you to sleep, just make sure you are aware of the SUMMARY in BOLD BLUE below. If you want to sign-up, you need to do 5 things (I know, it sounds like work, but bear with me...)

1) Decide what TYPE of game you want to play. Your options are: ‘basic’ CoRT OR the ‘advanced’ CoRT game. You may only enter the 'advanced' game if you have previously played in a 'basic', or 'basic+' game hosted here in these forums, no exceptions. If you're not sure you have the time or sanity to keep up with an 'advanced' game, then go with 'basic' CoRT instead. If you're not sure you have the time to play at all, please don't register.
2) Send a PM to me (Jebuh214 (http://www.heroscapers.com/community/private.php?do=newpm&u=132)) noting your desire to join, AND your choice of basic CoRT, or ‘advanced’ CoRT.
3) Unless you want to play a 'random' character, post your preference in this thread and PM me with the character you'd like to 'play'. Characters are first-come, first-served. If someone else has already 'claimed' a character you wanted, list a 'second choice' instead. Players who have not chosen a character by Friday, August 5th (or want a random choice) will be assigned a random identity by me before the games start, and will receive one extra end-game 'roleplay' vote.
4) I may need to move players from their first choice game type to a different game to meet minimum player levels and/or to ensure the games are similarly-sized. If you would be willing to volunteer to be moved from your 'first choice' registration into the other game type if the need arises, state in this thread (or your entry PM) that you are FLEXIBLE. If it becomes necessary, I will select the minimum number of FLEXIBLE volunteers and move them into the other game first; the rest will hopefully be left in their 'preferred' game(s). Though FLEXIBLE players will be moved first, be warned that I may still have to move others around if I run out of FLEXIBLE players. Any players (FLEXIBLE volunteers or otherwise) who ARE moved into a different game will receive one extra post-game vote in the 'most-fun' category for their game as compensation.
5) If you have regular, FACE-TO-FACE contact with another member of this forum who will be playing, PLEASE NOTIFY ME of both your identities so that I can try to put you in different games. You might think you want to play in the same game as one of your 'R-L buddies', but unless you are willing to be extremely careful to make sure that NEITHER of you CHEATS, you're just asking for trouble. If you plan on letting any other player(s) NEAR your computer anytime during this game, just tell me, and I'll put you in different games. If you choose to play in a game with someone else you 'know' in real-life, CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED. Anyone who flubs up (deliberately or accidentally), gives away their role or learns someone else's, and spoils the game for everyone WILL be considered CHEATING and will be PERMANENTLY BANNED from future participation in CoN games here in the forums. If you can be responsible for your actions and take measures to safeguard the game for everyone's enjoyment, you can play with whomever you wish, but you WILL be held accountable if you screw up. If you don't think you can handle it, it's much safer to just let me know so I can split you up. ...'Nuff said.
NOTE: Another registration option is UBER-FLEXIBLE. Anyone registering as "UBER-FLEXIBLE" is expressing no game preference whatsoever, and will be placed after registration closes into whichever game needs them the most. Such players will automatically get the one extra 'bonus' post-game vote in the "Most Fun" category, no matter which game they are eventually given. Furthermore, players registering as RANDOM UBER-FLEXIBLE will similarly get one extra post-game vote in BOTH the "Most Fun" and "Best RolePlayer" categories.
So, recapping:

Send me a PM, noting your choice of game ('basic' or advanced)
...then post your character pick in this thread (if any)
...then note if you are FLEXIBLE (in case I need to move folks around)
...then tell me what other players (if any) I need to keep OUT of your game due to privacy issues.

[Jebuh214]

Final Note: SIDEBOARDING:
As if registration wasn't complicated enough, there's also the SIDEBOARDING issue. First-time players can ignore this section, and veterans should know all about the purpose and function, so I'll not rehash it here. If you are an experienced player (minimum of 3 games played, one of which must be an advanced), you may volunteer as a SIDEBOARD potential to replace any players that drop out due to inactivity. Note this in your registration PM to me and in this thread, stating clearly if you are EAGER to play if the opportunity arises, or if you are just WILLING to play, but only if absolutely needed. Please, DO NOT volunteer as a sideboard candidate unless you are absolutely certain that you can handle playing in both games simultaneously, if needed.

If you are in the host queue (below) and want to be a Storyteller for the basic or Advanced game, post here or PM me to let me know. First choice will be given to willing hosts starting at the top of this list and moving down. If you want to play instead, or won't be in this round at all, also let me know, so I can skip your name and seek the next willing victim, *cough* I mean volunteer. You must have played in at least 2 previous CoRT games (of any type) before you may sign-up to be a Storyteller...






Top Storyteller Candidates: (In order)

the mouth of sauron
thenightshadow
the ranger's apprentice
That's all for now. Let the registration begin! I will try to keep the following list updated and fairly current. It is each player's responsibility to check this list and make sure they are registered properly. I have been known to (occassionally) misread players' intentions, so double-check to make sure your preferences were understood...

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN
Until October 21st, at 23:00hrs (11:00PM) EST

Random Uber Flex

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

I would like to story-tell, if I can please. If not, I'll send you my person later.:D

[Dysole]

Something. Something. And more Something.

~Dysole, figuring you probably all know the drill by now

[english_petal]

Random Female (or non-hero which Ican play female), Uberflexible :)

[Killer Lawnmower]

Random Male Uberflex And NOT Sideboarding this Round

[KCU Master 2007]

I'm up in the air right now. My inactivity last game tells me I may not have enough time this semester to really play.

Still not sure though. I'll decide over the next couple days.

[TylerStroud]

Something. Something. And more Something.

~Dysole, figuring you probably all know the drill by now

The drill being - you random a character at the last minute, RP it the same as all the others and then somehow leave with an 8 point game?

(Just saying - would be nice to see a NOT crazy NOT making up new names for every player RP from you... to show a little... diversity?)



Im in - uber flex random sideboard whatever. Sign me up for everything.

Apologies - Im feeling grumpy today.

Okay then. Something a little different will be in store. ^_^

~Dysole, with some ideas

[jsmkd]

Okay then. Something a little different will be in store. ^_^

~Dysole, with some ideas

But if you get another vanguard it will have to be crazy. Right?

[Dysole]

But if you get another vanguard it will have to be crazy. Right?

I can make someone entertaining without making them too far off the deep end. I don't think I've ever played a character completely sane however. I just have some general ideas that get expanded upon once I get a character.

~Dysole, noting that Kalon didn't really nickname everyone

[thenightsshadow]

I'll apply to storytell, and as last time, the title is Tundle's Counterattack.

Edit:
Forgot, it's an Advanced Game.

Edit2:
If I'm Storytelling, there are no Summoners, but Fallen Kingdom commons are among the playable options.

[esper88]

Uberflexible Random Female 16 Year Old Vanguard Named Sera

[Thing 2]

I think I'll sit this one out. October's not a good month for me. Here meaning that it is, but I'm very busy, and I just won't have this kind of time.

[esper88]

Just in case somebody doesn't get the joke, which sadly I think is an eventuality, I'll just state directly that I shotty Sera.

[Killer Lawnmower]

I'm not sure how well my participation will be this game as well, but I'll do my best. I hopefully can pull off my roleplay idea this time.

[prometheuslkr]

Hopefully I will be able to participate enough.

Uberflex Savager.

[thenightsshadow]

Uberflexible Random Female 16 Year Old Vanguard Named Sera

Oh right, forgot one more thing.

If I am storytelling, there are no Summoners, but you CAN be a Fallen Kingdom Common.

[KCU Master 2007]

I think I'm gonna try again. I should have enough time as most of my major assignments are done or will be done shortly.

Sign me us as UBERFLEXIBLE RANDOM.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Well, I guess I won't story-tell. That's lame. If the basic game is open, I'll go story-tell that one. But I guess I'll be a Flexible Scrapper.;)

[esper88]

Oh right, forgot one more thing.

If I am storytelling, there are no Summoners, but you CAN be a Fallen Kingdom Common.

If you do end up storytelling then I'll be a Zombie Warrior.

[draggash]

Zombie Warrior? Sounds pretty contradictory to me. Surely that would make all the debates awkward XD

esper is a zombie!
Yes I am.
No I meant a zombie zombie,
No I'm a warrior zombie...

etc.

[TylerStroud]

You signing up Ant?

[chardris77]

Eager sideboarder, uberflex random male.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Who's Ant?:confused: And I don't think there should be a Zombie Warrior or any FK for that matter.

[RoloCookie]

I'm in, Random Uberflexible, eager sideboarder.
You know, the works

[esper88]

Zombie Warrior? Sounds pretty contradictory to me. Surely that would make all the debates awkward XD

esper is a zombie!
Yes I am.
No I meant a zombie zombie,
No I'm a warrior zombie...

etc.

Muhahahaha! It's the perfect way to diffuse suspicion!

But if I do end up being a zombie warrior, I'd identify myself with as a Zombified CG Fighter named Joe or Zombified Kalon etc. so it would be slightly less confusing.

I'm assuming that if thenightshadow is allowing FK he's doing a slightly different spin on what it means to be a "killer."

[thenightsshadow]

Look over at Tundle's Event cards. That's all I'll say on the matter right now.

[draggash]

I managed to get my position in before jebuh got the second post up stroud, I had to delete it XD

[esper88]

Look over at Tundle's Event cards. That's all I'll say on the matter right now.

Illusory Warriors, ay? Vetty vetty clever. Perhaps you should also stipulate no champions? Maybe maybe not.

I still shotty Zombie Warrior.

[Killer Lawnmower]

Strictly speaking Fallen Kingdom units aren't supposed to be allowed at all except in Keep games...

Just sayin.

[thenightsshadow]

If it doesn't work out, KL, I definitely won't be including them again.

[Dysole]

Storyteller does have discretion about which characters are fine for their game. On Scapers, Utgar/Valkrill units aren't used except for Keeps but we've had a few (albeit unofficial) games where they were allowed.

~Dysole, contemplating asking for a random FK unit

[Infection Reflection]

Uber Flexible Zombie Warrior! I've wanted to RP a dead guy since the beginning! YEAHOOOOOO! Sideboard! Hi!:D

[TylerStroud]

Uber Flexible Zombie Warrior! I've wanted to RP a dead guy since the beginning! YEAHOOOOOO! Sideboard! Hi!:D

Just get killed in the first day vote. Job done.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Oh, I'll side-board too. Maybe some day we'll get enough people to play two games.

[jsmkd]

Really TRA not an Elf?

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Not today. I decided to be a guy this time, and a crazy one to boot.;)

[esper88]

Uber Flexible Zombie Warrior! I've wanted to RP a dead guy since the beginning! YEAHOOOOOO! Sideboard! Hi!:D

So how does this work? Does he get to be Zombie Warrior since I sent in my PM to be Sera but had to change?

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

I think you can both be Zombies. I mean, there's almost no chance that they'll be the same, right? Your people are always crazy and Infection's are just weird.

[thenightsshadow]

Since the PMs are sent in to Jebuh, I'm not quite sure. Definitely there won't be more than one Zombie Warrior, so...yeah.

[Dysole]

Priority goes to the first one to send it in. Other person has to choose a new character.

~Dysole, rulesmaster for now and forevermore.

[esper88]

Random it is.

I'll be sure to make him crazy just like Grognack was. Wanting to go home can land you straight into a mental institution.

[TylerStroud]

Random it is.

I'll be sure to make him crazy just like Grognack was. Wanting to go home can land you straight into a mental institution.

Crazy and homosexual like Grognack was? Until you bottled and changed your mind...

[esper88]

Crazy and homosexual like Grognack was? Until you bottled and changed your mind...

Yeah, that was his overarching theme: Confusion with sexuality. He was going after men and swamp orcs. I don't know if I'd consider that "crazy."

Gameplay ripped Grognack's RP to shreds. If I could do it all again, I would have given him a bit more depth, a few more motives. Se la se.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Soooo... does anyone know when the sign-ups are going to end?:confused:

[thenightsshadow]

October 21. Says it right on the second post.

[Infection Reflection]

If esper really wants to be a Zombie Warrrior, I could be some other dead guy. Like a Reaver. Or Reaper. Or Skelly. It's esper's call.:D

[Infection Reflection]

Haven't sent in the PM yet, so...;)

[TylerStroud]

I wasn't saying crazy = homosexuality or vice versa. Just that he was both - and that you seemed to lose your faith in it and then went from him being clearly gay, to having a wife and child at home which seemed like you backtracking and changing your story. Thats all. I remember it was the first time Rolo and I saw you in a game and we were like

"Is he making Grognack gay?!"
"Yes."
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA GENIUS."

[esper88]

Go for it, Infection. You can be Zombie Warrior. I'm sticking with random.

No, that wasn't backtracking, though I understand where you're coming from. He was experimenting with his sexuality in various ways, being tired of conventional monogamous life. It was all planned, but certain things fell into the background when Vargagg died.

Now I'm just trying to think if it's even possible to top Thomas... I'm going to be living in his shadow for a long time.

[chardris77]

So..., as far as we know, shadow is storytelling this round?

[thenightsshadow]

Only way I wouldn't is if 'the mouth of sauron' wants to.

Edit:
Or, if like last time, there's more clamor for a Basic/Basic+ game than an Advanced game.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Does anyone think we should stop the sign-ups early? Nobody else has signed up for a few days now... Oh, and take a look at the people who have signed up. Jeubh put something funny there.

[Killer Lawnmower]

Thanks Jebuh...:rolleyes:

Nightsshadow is storytelling, right? So what, do we need one more person. We only have 11, right?

[thenightsshadow]

The only off thing I can see is a misspelling of english_petal's username.

[Jebuh214]

[QUOTE=Killer Lawnmower;26586] Thanks Jebuh...:rolleyes: [QUOTE]

Anytime! ;)

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

When Infection signs up (I think he's going to) we'll have twelve. To Nightshadow, look at where it says KL signed up.;)

[Infection Reflection]

Go for it, Infection. You can be Zombie Warrior. I'm sticking with random.

Thanks, esper!:D

[pixlepix]

Holleas Uberflex

[Killer Lawnmower]

When Infection signs up (I think he's going to) we'll have twelve. To Nightshadow, look at where it says KL signed up.;)

Yeah I didn't actually think he would put that with my name...I just added it to the PM for no reason really...

[draggash]

It's worth noting non-female if you are happy to play things like the eater or demons :D

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Friday's so long away... I wish we could start sooner.

[Dysole]

Friday's so long away... I wish we could start sooner.

Patience, youngling. It will teach you not to vote quickly.

~Dysole, who alternately says you could just make sure you sign up on multiple forums so you always have some game going. ^_^

[Killer Lawnmower]

Someday soon I think I'll have to take a day and get organized for this game. I have not thought about it at all with school and sports...but no worries. I will find something!

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Yes, Master Yoda.;)

[pixlepix]

Hmm, my names not on the list.

[Dysole]

Hmm, my names not on the list.

Because Jebuh updates this thing as often as the Cubs win the World Series.

~Dysole, with apologies to Cubs fans

[pixlepix]

Okay, just wanted to make sure I was still in the game.

[Jebuh214]

Because Jebuh updates this thing as often as the Cubs win the World Series.

~Dysole, with apologies to Cubs fans

Hey! I take some offense to that! I am much more consistant than the Cubbies! ;)

[thenightsshadow]

I should have roles finalized soon, while characters have been rolled via VASSAL.
Yes, that does mean some streaks of numbers, so don't be surprised with your character.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

I'm not really sure what you mean by doing that. I'm not on VASSAL.

[Killer Lawnmower]

I think meaning he used vassal to randomize our characters.

[esper88]

Perhaps he made a deck of all possible characters, shuffled, and then drew out enough cards to match each random player. That sounds like a decent system.

[Ranior]

Or he's suggesting he used the die in Vassal, which is known to be kinda streaky. Its ridiculous sometimes actually.

[thenightsshadow]

A mix of both. I'm tempted to do it again, since really sign-ups aren't over and having 5 people from one faction looks bad.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

So when do we start? I'm eager to RP my peep. He's gonna be really strange.;)

[TylerStroud]

I just googled random number generator for mine. Randomiser or something it was called. :) Was pretty effective. I did Random 1-X for Faction then random 1-X number of characters and went down the list.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

I don't have to worry about that. I'm good.;)

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

So, when are we starting the new game? The suspense is killing me. I hope it won't last. ;)

[thenightsshadow]

The game starts tomorrow, but your roles will come on Tuesday. :P

[Dysole]

The game starts tomorrow, but your roles will come on Tuesday. :P

So I take it we get our characters sometime today or tomorrow?

~Dysole, extrapolating

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

So Pre-game RPing starts tomorrow, and the actual game starts Tuesday.Sounds okay to me, I guess. Ummm... not to be pushy or anything, but evening, afternoon, or morning?:o

[Killer Lawnmower]

Yay for roles! Time to begin...

[thenightsshadow]

Please check your Character Cards! They're located on the second slot of the...
Actually, never mind. They're in your Private Messages Inbox, whatever that thing is.

For those of you who have already chosen a character, the cards are just a reminder of who you're playing. For those that chose any sort of Random, well, it's up to you whether or not you wish to say what happened.

[Killer Lawnmower]

Darn slot machine. Studies show everything. Why he had to pair me with the lawnmower I don't know but he did. Nothing good will ever come of this. Mark my word.

Snag glanced at his ever-present clipboard, writing down notes as he spoke. The studies must go on.

[thenightsshadow]

As a note, we're going to try to keep things casual and mostly light-hearted outside of the game thread, but it's all business once we're in there.

Actually, you two won't be in the game thread at all.

What!?

[pixlepix]

Wait, am I not able to be a champion?

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

"What? You're paired with a Lawnmower?" A sword hit the ground right next to the Sand Goblin and a Scrapper appeared. "Cool! You can mow my lawn! Isn't that awesome?" He laughed before wandering away.
(Isn't Infection supposed to be a Zombie?)

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Whoops... I meant that to be in Dark Orange, not just plain Orange.

[Killer Lawnmower]

"What? You're paired with a Lawnmower?" A sword hit the ground right next to the Sand Goblin and a Scrapper appeared. "Cool! You can mow my lawn! Isn't that awesome?" He laughed before wandering away.


Snag looks wide-eyed over his bi-focals and the Scrapper. He takes the bag from his shoulder and drops it to the floor with a clunk. He looks in apprehensively and then dives his hand into the bag. He digs around, metal pieces and all sorts of things banging together. He pulls out a nice looking rock and smiles at it. Then he chucks it at the Scrapper.

Mow your lawn! Are you insane!

His glasses become slanted and spit flies as he yells at the Scrapper. He grabs his bag and runs off, quickly jotting notes on his clipboard, as usual.

[Sera Eldwyn's boyfriend]

Am I to late to sign up for this game, could I be a late sign up?

[thenightsshadow]

Send me a PM. I don't mind.

Edit:
I'm going to be pushing back the start of Round 9 until SEB sends in the PM, unless some of you mind.

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

The Scrapper swung around and caught the rock before it hit him. "Hey! Throwing rocks isn't nice! All I thought was since you were paired with a lawnmower you would mow my lawn for money. Apparently you don't have manners, throwing rocks at people you don't even know!"

[Killer Lawnmower]

The Scrapper swung around and caught the rock before it hit him. "Hey! Throwing rocks isn't nice! All I thought was since you were paired with a lawnmower you would mow my lawn for money. Apparently you don't have manners, throwing rocks at people you don't even know!"

At the Scrapper's words Snag swung around to throw one more jest at him.

What difference does it make if I'm throwing rocks at people I know, or people I don't know, dummy? Huh? Stupid...

He reached down to pick up a rock but his cumbersome bag got the better of him and the weight helped aid a finely executed faceplant into the ground. Snag got up with his glasses bent and stalked away trying to preserve the dignity he had just lost.

See you in the game, scum!

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

Reese turned to the rude Goblin who kept annoying him. "Game? I'm here for the candy, dummy! Who're you calling a dummy if you can't tell who's here for some stupid game and who's here for candy, dummy! Oh, err- speaking of candy..." Reese put his bag on the ground and opened it. As he was rooting through it he grumbled, "Stupid slot machine. I got thrown out... I hate slot machines... aha!" He held up a Reese's peanut butter cup proudly. "Eat this, stupid Goblin!" Whether he meant to or not, he threw his candy at the Goblin. Then he looked at his empty hand and groaned. "Come on, Reese! Why the heck did you do that? Why didn't you throw the stinking sword?"

[Killer Lawnmower]

For all readers, dont blink or you'll miss this one.

So now Snag was being called a dummy. How predictable. Snag took it in stride. He calmly wrote down Reese's name on a page on his clipboard and scribbled a 347 at the bottom of the page, crossing out the 346 that was there. The second he smelled the candy, his head shot up. His eyes bulged even bigger than his large glasses. His lip crept up and his nose flexed as he inhaled. Doesnt that give a disturbing mental image...? Anyway, so the chocolate missile was flying at him and his mouth opened wide and in went the chocolate. He grinned mischeviously at Reese, showing his chocolate stained incisors larger than steak knives. Freaky...yeah. So...The end. You know, lookin back at that Snag is lucky that Reese didn't swallow the sword...food for thought...

[The Ranger's Apprentice]

"You ate. My candy. How. Dare. You?"
