Game will continue at 11pm EST Spiderday (Saturday)!

The Rules
- To sign up for the opening game/event, have your student take a seat in the train and post in bold orange "I would like to sink your battleship!"
- When the game is ready, a list will be generated and each student will get to attack in the order they are posted. To attack, simply choose a square such as J1, F9 or B3.
- Please give me time to announce if the square chosen is a hit or a miss before the next student makes a guess. This will increase your odds!
- No editing or changing the guesses! If you choose a square already chosen, your round will be forfeited. So please pay attention to all guesses made!
- When your turn comes up, you will have five minutes to post a guess. If you are afk and miss your turn, you will be moved to the bottom of the list and the next student will get to guess. This will give you a second chance. If you miss your second chance, your turn will be forfeited for that round.
- There will be one round of attacks per day to make this game more time manageable. This doesn't mean the game will last for days! It really depends on how well you play! At the end of the round, a new image will be posted to give you a visual of where the game currently stands. Keep in mind that I will only post where the successful hits had landed! I will never show you where the misses were! Dun dun dun dunnnnnnn!
- There's no limit to the amount of hits each student can land as long as they attack once per round!
- Game will end when all the ships have been sunk! Each ship will be allotted specific prizes so the more you hit, the merrier! Those that sank the Battleship will score the best prizes, of course!
-If you have any questions when the train is opened, post ((ooc)) to ask them, please!

((Whoops forgot to put this, I would like to sink your Battleship!))

Mandy made sure to get to the train nice and early to avoid the crowds and grab herself a nice spot in her car. She wasn't sure what to think of this whole train ride thing. Either it was going to be an incredibly long and dull ride or it could end up like the Student Council meeting. Which would be epic, especially if there was booze involved again. But she highly doubted it - they where off campus so they probably had to be on best behavior or something. Boring.

Giving a sigh she boarded and after looking over the other person in the car she quickly jotted her name down for this battleship thing, may as well do something to avoid dying from boredom. That done she skulked over to a seat in the back corner of the train, maybe nobody annoying would notice her there.

I would like to sink your Battleship!

Barth, who was fighting an unending struggle against gravity anyway, veered into the first available seat and collapsed in it.

His itinerary was as follows:

Sleep until they got there
Hide under the seat
Sleep until they got back

He might try some napping, snoozing, and dozing for variety. After arranging himself for the long haul (ie just staying in whatever position he had dropped into), he began to get a head start on itinerary item #1.

When she read the notice, Colette was quite curious and confused as to why everyone was requested to appear at the train station; but she wouldn't argue against a free train ride to.. somewhere. It couldn't be too horrible of a trip anyway, Hellma had been the one to issue the notice. A staff member wouldn't send students anywhere terrible or dangerous, right?..

The Reaper boarded the train and took a quick look around. It was perfect; not crowded or loud and she could sit where she liked. She only wondered how long that would last. Colette took a window seat around the front, near a.. lump that appeared to breathe. Was that a student? Either way to Colette, it didn't appear likely to bother her. She lovingly placed her two swords next to her and relaxed, cooing to them, "Let's hope this is fun."

(( I would like to sink your battleship! ))

Alessa didn't know why she was getting on board. She didn't hate trains, per say, but she disliked them enough that getting on of her own free will seemed strange. They moved too quickly and made lots of noise (perhaps not noise everyone heard but she certainly did) and the feeling of her body being both still and not still was unnerving. She supposed rabbits juts weren't meant to ride on trains.

She made her way down between the seats, looking casually for a place to sit. She honestly did not want to be near the windows. She didn't want to see how the world was passing by at a breakneck speed. She didn't recognize anyone, either, but then she didn't know many people yet so that wasn't a surprise. Distracted, she stumbled and bumped into one of the occupied seats.

"Sorry about that," she mumbled to its occupant.

(( I would like to sink your battleship! ))

With his mouth hanging slightly open and body in a state of relaxation only achieved by yoga masters, it was easy to make the mistake the demon for recently dead. As anticipated, he didn't bother Colette.

During Rain's aisle patrol, however, a clawed hand (not the entire arm, just the hand) gave one lazy wave before dropping back into his lap.

This might have been the extent of any and all activity for the train ride, except he suddenly found his legs were being relocated and more importantly someone had deposited a very nice blanket in his lap.

One eye struggled open.

Oh. Another student. Who didn't have a head. And was in-process of recanting the blanket (dress?). He examined the other student that had settled in next to him. She had brought swords, apparently in case something needed skewering. He assumed the headless thing couldn't talk, and supplied,

"S'alright."

Before closing the eye again.
