Ready – Aim – Fire Classic I: The Giant Playground

To avoid some confusions (which already occur):

This is RAF Classic, the original, free-for-all RAF game. You can find Team RAF, the team-based variant of this game, here.

This game is identical with Silkenfists game “Ready Aim Fire”, I tried to get his permission to narrate this game but didn’t get a reply till now. So if he don’t want me to run this game I will stop it.

The main rules (spoilered cause I think most of the people know them already):

Spoiler

You have to decide between three actions:

1) Shoot the air –> Nothing happens. If you get shot you die.
2) Shoot [insert player name here] –> [insert player name here] dies if he did not shoot himself.
3) Shoot yourself -> if no one tries to kill you, you die! If someone shoots you this player will get killed instead of you and you live!

For better understanding here is a link to Lord Herman’s “comic for better understanding the rules of Ready Aim Fire.

You have about three days to PM your action to the narrator (=me!). I will announce the submission date in the Narrator Posts.

If you miss a date once you shoot the air. If you miss a date twice in a row you get autolynched.


Roleplay rules:

This game takes place in a giant playground. This playground is designed for human kids aged 3-6. You can see all equipment you expect in a playground like sledges, swings, sandboxes and so on.
I don’t know all the english names of these equipments so I would be happy if you describe them if you want to take a specific action.
When you sign up (or later in the thread) you may pick a race (human, elf, dwarf, ork…) and an age (human: 3-6, elf 20-50, dwarf 5-20, ork 1-2 for example. If you want to pick a other age please explain why) and you can describe where you want to play. Or you just sign up and I pick a specific race, age and playing place for you.
Of course there may be animals in the playground, too (Llamas for example hint hint), I know that kids can be very cruel to animals (and vice versa).

I will post the end of the round and start writing then, no PMs will be accepted after the end of the round post.
Sicne it’s my first game of this kind so I don’t know how much time I need to write the story, I would say it shouldn’t last more than 24 hours.

Sign up ends next week on Wednesday, 09:00 PM GMT+1

I think the name of the kid is "Gilphie" or something like that.

And DLD, I'll take that as "I sign up", shouldn't I?
