Hello fellow members of the Forum Games community. I think I have established myself well in this section of the forum, as I post here more than any other section for several years. I have brought you several tournaments, polls, took part in many games, and hosted a mafia game or two. Some of you might know my life has been really out of whack as of late, which is leading to inconsistent posting of my polls. Things seem be settling down now and I am ready to get back in playing games. I am actually about to host a mafia game with my friends in real life, which I introduced to them and they loved. But as I have been following the mafia games here, I realize I am not really needed to host mafia games. Also, I am not the best mafia player either, so I figured I would try something that I do in my real life, and bring it here.
All four years of my high school (And two years of my middle school), I was known to tell horror stories to my friends. These weren't normal stories, they were kinda like roleplaying stories. I would get my friends into the story, and I would set up a scenario. I would offer them a few options to act on, and their fate would be decided on a decision they made. These decisions had pre-determined results. So...I am bringing it to you here.
Oh, THE HORROR! Game 1 is here. Here is what you need to know:
The number of players is not set in stone. I will take in as many as needed. I will have sign up last for a day and a half, maybe two days. If we have 5 players, I do the story with 5 players. If we get 15, I get 15.
The poll above is a story setting/conflict that all of you are to decide on. Choose whatever stories you want to be in. The stories are:
1. A cabin by a lake, deserted from society. A group of teens go there to party for spring break....unfortunately...they encounter zombies! (A pretty generic plotline)
2. A group of marines are sent to Mars to become the first pioneers of the planet. Unfortunately, they figure out there is an alien among them....
3. A group of vacationrs in the mountains of Colorado get hit by the worst ice storm in the history of mankind. Not only do they have to deal with the storm but they unfortunately have to deal with an...an abominable snowman!
Here is how it goes:
Players sign up to be in the story. I record the list of players and put them in the story with certain characters. I then begin to tell the story through several posts. In these posts, readers and players read the stories. I will reveal decisions that a certain player needs to make. For example:
"Notorious, you are standing in the kitchen. The vampire is walking closer to you and back into the fridge, running out of room to escape. Do you shoot him the head with the last bullet you have? Or do grab the kitchen and go for a stab to his chest?"
Then, the player will PM me her/his decision, (there will be a deadline on decisions) and I will then continue the story based on the decision. I have to point again that the results of the decisions are predetermined.
Here is the sign up list:
1. Strong Brad
2. Sloth Spartan
3. Dammit Cageking!
4. stinger4christ
5. Lodi "Wyatt" Rulz
6. Notorious
7. SAVE_US.GDR
8. Zack Morris Is Insane
9. Waffel113
10. Hollywood Hawkeye Jefferson
11. Mr. B Natural
12. J
13. Anonymous GM
14. Wolf Hurricane
15. Spiked Mohican
16. Orange
If this fails...oh well. If not, you guys will have fun!
