[********. Yes.
Do it, Sher. I will love you forever if you do this
xDD
EDIT - Idea! To make it like Hunger Games you could intentionally have us meet up - like you're the Gamemaker - and then the contest is a series of 1 v 1 contests. Maybe you could predetermined partners by numbers and we could roll every round? For fairness of randomizationation.
I'm not entirely sure what you mean.
Okie. Start with a larger number of contestants. Let's say 24 - just like Hunger Games. Instead of 24 competing and two or three being eliminated have everyone participate in a 1v1 contest with another player.
Course, that eliminates half the contestants. And the contest would only be four rounds.
But, you could always have ways to extend it, if you wanted . . . hmmm, I'll have to think of them though xDD
Am I making more sense yet? ^ ^;;
Ooooh, I getcha. Nevermind then xDD
Alright, but how do they battle?
It sounds a lot different than the free range story based idea I had in mind.
Hmmm, well, you would choose some sort of situation for them to be in - based on the strengths/weaknesses they sent in the beginning - and they would create avis and stories to match it. Like, "Contestant X and Contestant Y both come to the same small lake. How do you overcome the other contestant and secure the area for yourself?"
Though, thinking about it now, I guess there'd actually have to be a lot of collaboration between the two for the stories, huh?
This is completely off that topic - but you could also do rounds where no one is eliminated. Rounds where the contestants are basically "collecting supplies" or trying to find ways to better their situation. Depending on how well their entry scores they'll get a certain number of bonus points for the next elimination they take places in . . .
Well, to be honest, I hadn't imagined it'd be a round based contest.
I figured it'd just go day by day,
and people are eliminated whenever they happen to die,
whether that's because of another character or because of starvation or whatever.
I do plan to have disasters and stuff happen, though,
much like in Hunger Games, just to keep things interesting.
I did imagine there'd be a lot of collaboration between contestants for the story, though.
It'll be very complicated and hard to coordinate.
But it should make for a pretty cool game.
I dunno when I'd want them to make avatars for the contest.
I don't think I'd judge off of them or anything,
beyond to discern their strengths and weaknesses.
Maybe an avatar before they got isolated,
and an avatar shortly after they get isolated.
And then just make a new avatar when something important enough happens
that might change the way a person looks
(such as starving or getting wounded or something),
or maybe avatars for the scenery or something they encounter.
But again, I don't intend it to be an avatar-intense contest.
It very well could be like only 2 avatars that people make.
But the story will be based off those avatars.
edit :: I think I'm just gonna go ahead and do it actually.
Gonna go make the thread.
