Made a thread about an idea for this months ago, and now I've more or less had the time to think of how this can work. Forgive me if this sounds confusing, since this is more or less my first time doing such a thing. If you've got any questions or suggestions, ask.
-contestants will be placed in a... let's say 30x30 grip/map/thing. Each one will be placed in random locations, and the killing won't start until one contestant runs into another (more on that later)
-on each turn, each contestant will have three points of action, which is basically movement. One point of action equals one point of movement; so a contestant can go north, south, east, or west (and NW/NE/SW/SE). This will be sent to me via PM, and the turn will end once everyone has sent theirs.
--that said, if two contestants end up on the same place, we can do the battle royale thing going on. Of course, it doesn't have to be all bloodshed. Perhaps a temporary alliance, maybe a sudden backstab on the next turn, who knows? Some of these will be done via PM, but there posting roleplay or somesuch of the results on this thread is encouraged.
--also, while the three points of action can be used on movement, it can also be done for other things. Interact with the surroundings! Maybe gather up some rocks to throw at people, or be on the lookout for nearby enemies, or hide. Use your cleverness to make use of interacting.
-As time passes, the grid will become smaller and smaller. Areas will become forbidden to stop in... take note of where you are, or kablooie.
-Each contestant will be given a random item at the start. Could be a weapon. Could be an item. Again, a bit of cleverness can help you out in the long run.
That's about it. I'm not sure if I made a thorough job on explaining the rules and whatnot, but again, if you've got suggestions or questions, post here so we can improve on the idea before we get things started.
