Re: ASWoT Omni-Festival

Bumper cars are fun. In another dimension I just hit Fourlegged. Actually, I should find some snacks first. I few years on a coaster can make you hungry.

Hmm, deep fried fry wrap deep fried ice cream dipped in chocolate and wrapped in bacon...

Yep, that's the healthiest thing on the menu, I'll have 100 of them.

Except for the bacon and the chocolate that sounds pretty good, actually...

Re: ASWoT Omni-Festival

Want one? You can scrape the bacon and chocolate off. Or just order it without them.

*The random objects once being juggled, finally giving up on someone restarting the ride, condense into Germ Ants, one of whom provides Taz with some coffee.*

You know, perhaps what we really need is to go back to some of the environments which went so well in the past. After all, most of the people who were there are gone now, so it would be new for most. I'll have to think on it (now that I've finally returned).

Re: ASWoT Omni-Festival

Unfortunately I think the forum isn't active enough at the moment to handle any sort of roleplaying.  Hopefully things pick up soon.

Thus my failure to act on my earlier statement. (Laziness and distraction had nothing to do with it! Why would you even think that? I'm offended!)

Re: ASWoT Omni-Festival

I hope that this whole forum gets revitalized soon.  Maybe if we do some advertising on other sites?  Rpol doesn't really have that many users.

There seems to be a systemic failure.  I'd hate to see it all go away.

My other play by post site has -- I kid you not -- about 1% as many active users as RPOL.

Is there funnel cake? You know about goblins and funnel cake. Wait, you don't know about goblins and funnel cake. Well, someone needs to buy me a funnel cake for demonstration and educational purposes.

Re: ASWoT Omni-Festival

for this 67500 game post i will tell you the tale of tropical chess....

Edit: the Rules of this game i made up off the top of my head

The pieces are all replaced with different remodels and texture changes:
King = Tikigolem
Queen = Fertility Goddess
Rook = Place of Worship (PoW)
Bishop = Kahuna
Knight = Dancer/Drummer
Pawn = Peons

The Tikigolem is purely a retexture

The Queen is similar, except before you begin you must choose one:
* Rice (if you choose rice you may create an additional Peon on your side of the board every start of each of your turns, king = 7)
* Cotton (If cotton, Peons may be dazed in order for you to create a Cotton Counter)
* Mango (If Mango, when you start the game, three of your peons are 2-units tall and are able always move as they do on their first turn)

If you still own your queen, you may discard three cotton to create a peon that is 5 tall

FUNCTIONS
Dazing - dazing a piece means to lay it down horizontally (facing one side of the board, but not towards you or yer enemy)
Height - this game is played in 3 dimensions, do height mattres, pawns are 1, knights are 2, bishops and rooks are 3, queen 4, and knight 5 (7 if you choose rice queen)
Things cannot jump things of greater height
Facing - all pieces may be changed their orientation after moving them spacially, one additional may be changed without moving per turn, change face only on your turn

Rooks must be all designated the first time you move one
designate them into either Churches, Synagogues or Mosques.
Churches work like a rook, except knights are 3 tall
Synagogues makes peons be 2 tall when they are within 3 paces of a synagogue (if they are closed to a mosque they must be sacrificed)
Mosques allow you to choose a direction, and whenever a piece of 3 or more height faces that direction, you may resurrect a fallen piece

Kahuna can be sacrificed to destroy two pieces of lesser height, and you can sac a peon to make it 4 tall until end of turn

when you get knights you must choose dancer or drummer, dancers can be dazed to make a peon 3 tall

drummers can be dazed by the doubles, to make two peons 3 tall and make one move once and change it's orientation

pawns can be sacrificed to make your king one taller, or dazed by fives to destroy a counter

If you own rice synagogue, or mango mosque or cotton church every three turns (starting on turn 4) you may create two peons that can be moved twice each turn, but are immune to buffs but not debuffs

a king being jumped lowers it height by 1
a king may not be killed until it's height goes from 1 to 0

Knights can jump if you own excatly two places of worship, jumping makes them immune to the next attcak, but also you have to daze a nearby peon (within 4 spaces)

the board is also 1 larger in each way, and you have an additional few peons to fill in that space

YOU MAY START THE GAME WITH A SINGLE KAHUNA IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MOVE ALL YOUR KNIGHTS TWICE, IF IT DIES before turn 7, YOU LOSE





...



im sorry

Very well young tanner, you shall become an adept soon enough! I choose mango church dancers, keep four kahunas. choose white, allows me first move.
