Is everyone pumped up for the Capture the Flag that will be taking place very soon? Well I have typed up a small how-to-guide for everyone. The rules for Capture the Flag are going to be different from ordinary roleplaying.

THE STEPS BEFORE THE GAME
A few days before the Capture the Flag starts an announcement will be made that says the time and date of the game. A thread titled 'Capture the Flag sign up sheet' will then be posted in this sub-forum.
To be part of the game, simply post the name of your character(s) in the thread. Sometimes the number of players will be even, sometimes they will not be. However, we will try to make the teams as even as possible. (:
Sign ups are usually open for 5 days, and will stay open until two days before the game. After that, the sign up thread will be locked from further posting. This is so that we don't have random people popping in on the game without being on a team. It can confuse a lot of people. If you are too late and the sign up sheet closes, then you will have to join next time.
A day before the game, the Captain and/or Vice-Captains will have all the characters in teams. A thread for each team will be made to discuss strategies, or you can just chat. As for team leaders, those will change every game, and will be decided by the Captain or the Vice-Captains.

DURING THE GAME (I just lost the game. ;D )
Capture the Flag will be roleplayed out like the rest of the guild. However, to make sure that both teams do not cheat, and to make everything fair, the dice system will be incorporated into the game.
To Attack a Character: ■The user will role one ten sided die. ■If the number is 5 or over, your attack hits. ■If it is 4 or under, your attack misses.
To Win a Fight: ■Whoever gets a 10 first wins. ■The other way to win is if someone admits defeat.
To Capture the Flag: ■You must win three fights. ■No exceptions.
■To Bring the Flag Back to Your Side: ■You must win three fights. ■No exceptions.
■If you Lose a Battle: ■If you have the flag, and you lose a battle, the flag automatically goes back to the other team. ■If you do not have the flag, nothing happens. (:
Cheating Will Not Be Tolerated! The crew members will be keeping a very close look on people cheating. If we catch you cheating, your team will automatically lose, and you will have to face the anger of your teammates. If we catch you doing it a second time, you will be automatically banned. Cheating is something that will not go unpunished!
To Finish it Off Whoever wins four fights will win their team the Capture the Flag title. (:

AFTER THE GAME:
The winning team will earn bragging rights. The losing team will have to be the winning team's slaves. No, no, I'm just kidding. But the winning team does get to rub it in the losing team's face! However, please do not be rude when you brag, or else we'll take those rights away from you. O:<
FAQ:
Q: How do you use the dice action? A: Easy! Just hit the reply button, and on the right hand corner, there will be a drop down menu titled 'Post Action'. Click on it, and then click on 'Roll Dice'. Wait a second or two, and then a purple box will appear. Click on the drop down menu and select '10 sided'. Then, enter the number '1' in the 'Number of Dice' bar.
Q: Okay, so we roll the dice to attack. What about roleplaying? A: After selecting the dice options, just reply and roleplay like you normally do.
Q: How do we keep tabs on how many fights we have won? A: Please keep count in your posts!
Q: I still don't get it! A: Scroll down, I have an example for you.

Alicia smiled as she ran through the trees, she loved the feeling of wind through her hair, and the effort it took to not make noise as she stepped on twigs and rocks. Suddenly, her eyes widened as she saw a familliar looking boy walking slowly towards her team's boundary line. It was Henri. She smirked and placed an arrow into her bow. Knowing that she wasn't allowed to kill or maim, she aimed for his shoes. Taking in a deep breath, she let go of the string, and grinned as the string of her bow shot back to it's original position with a quiet twang.
Fights won: 0
(You do not post if you hit or not. This will all depend on the number of your dice. Also, when attacking someone, please make sure to include their name in your post so that there will be no confusion. Also, please put the number of fights that you have won in your post. )

(Since the number that was rolled for Alicia's post was 3, the attack missed.)
Henri heard the arrows before he saw them.
Letting out a small grunt, he rolled over so that the arrows planted themselves two inches beside him. Henri let out a sigh of relief, and scanned the area, looking for the camper who had shot the arrows. His eyes landed on a girl with long blond hair and aqua eyes. Henri smirked, he should have known it was Alicia. He took off his ring, and the item immediately transformed itself into a sword. Smiling slightly, he crept up to her, hoping that he wasn't make a lot of noise. Then with a battle yell, he jabbed his sword's flat side at Alicia's helmet, hoping that the impact would be enough to knock her out.

Henri's sword missed Alicia by a lot. She had heard him coming thanks to her heavily trained ears as a child of Apollo. With a smile, she dodged his attack and shot another arrow at Henri, hoping that she would not miss this time.

Henri let out a yell of pain as the arrows that were shot by Alicia impaled themselves into his shoes, and scratching his skin. He knew without having to look that the arrows were probably already causing his feet to slightly bleed. Henri grimaced slightly and sat down, taking a closer look at his foot. He was no longer fit to fight Alicia. He stuck his tounge out at her, and then started pulling the arrows out of his shoe.
Fights won: 0 -BATTLE ENDED-
((After you lose a battle, please put -BATTLE ENDED- at the end of your post so others will know that you are open for a fight.))

Alicia smiled, truly delighted with her victory. "Sorry," she said, as she started running away. Alicia couldn't help it, it was part of her nature to apologize when she hurt someone, even if it was a game.
Fights won: 1 -BATTLE ENDED-
((The winner should also put -BATTLE ENDED- in his or her post. Also, the winner will update their 'Fights Won' with one more point. If the winner would like to fight someone else, they will do it in another post. ))

...AND THAT'S IT! If you have any more questions concerning Capture the Flag, please PM a Vice-Captain or a Captain! It is suggested that you read through the whole guide before each game because Captains and Vice-Captains will be editing this thread with changed or added guidelines when they see fit.
