how to play
Please read these instructions carefully.
You will not be penalized if you count your
moves wrong because I will be checking them, but
you will not be awarded a prize if you do not post
your minisite username or if you do not cross the finish line.
1)
Roll 1d4 to see which car you will race in.
Post your minisite username in this first post as well.
Car 1: +1 space every three turns
Car 2: +2 spaces every five turns
Car 3: -1 space every four turns
Car 4: no effectYou only get one car for the duration of the race!
2)
Continue rolling 1d4 in every one of your subsequent posts, moving forward the number of spaces you roll, plus or minus any spaces determined by your car on the appropriate turns.
(Add the car modifier before you move. Do not add it at the end. See Turn #5 on the second example below.) Follow the instructions on each space you land on until you have reached the end of the race. You may not roll multiple dice in one post (unless it's a mistake, in which case just count the first die and move on) because you don't want to overshoot the end by more than one roll. I probably won't penalize people for overshooting because this game is running for such a short amount of time, but I will make a constipated face
that you will never see.
3)
There is no need to RP in your posts, although you can if you would like!
Anyone can play. I don't know why these things have their own number.
4) I know this car modifier stuff is a little confusing, so please ask questions by PM if you have them. If everyone messes it up, there will still be prizes for effort. EXPERIMENTAL GAMES FTW
Depending on how many people participate, the players who reach the end in the fewest number of turns might have prizes just thrown at them or those prizes might be raffled. If there are more than 10 players, some participants might get silver seeds instead of pets.
