RAF Classic VII - Into the Black [Round One - Shoot!]

[Thanatos 51-50]

[Witty introductory post]

This game is identical with Silkenfist's game, “Ready Aim Fire!”. Thank you Silkenfist for the idea.

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

The theme for this game, is Firefly, for the uninitated, Firefly is basically a Space westren by Joss Whedon. If you're not framiliar, don't let that bar you interest to join!
Although framilarizing yourself wouldn't be so bad... its a GREAT show.

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

Spoiler

Show

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.

I will post the end of the round and start writing then, no PMs will be accepted after the end of the round post.

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

Not very Space-westreney, but okay.
Pleas expect all sorts of dubious cliches. 'Cause I hate Emo cliches.

I have watched Fire Fly Than i know what theme is going on here. I just wanted to be non conforming.

Aw, I didn't sign up as a 'Sapce Fish'

[Thanatos 51-50]

Aw, I didn't sign up as a 'Sapce Fish'

Thats cause I'm NOT Big Brother, and therefore, do make mistakes, unlink Big Brother.
I've been really stressed out lately 'cause of work 'n' such. My spelling and grammar have tanked.
I'm trying to fix it.

[Dallas-Dakota]

Thanatos, relax.

I'l take over the sign-ups for the rest of the weekend.
But thats only ten hours....
Shhh, you shut up.

If you're stressed.
I'l have a table with players and roles for you by the time I go to sleep this sunday night. Okay?

Because I know stress and hosting RAF classic is sometimes not a good combination. Speaking from experience.

[Mordokai]

Kid, you don't know the half of it. Try running a werewolf while being without(stable) internet connection, working 8 hours per day, having a DnD session twice per week, writing narrations on the run and still try to keep more or less to the schedual. All the while you are also trying to be an active member of household and helping with regular family life.

Stress? I laught at it

Oh, character? I guess I'll be generic Reaver, or what those space pirates are called.

Scratch that

[Thanatos 51-50]

Twelve hour workdays five times a week, with twice daily musters every weekday, effectivly extending my work hours to thirteen.
Random inspections, on which my continued carrear in the Military depends.
No liberty. Technically, its no liberty off-base, but I've also lost my civilian clothing privlages.
No alcohol. This isn't really a big deal, since I don't drink, but its included for completeness.

And I'm moving my room for the second time in as many weeks. This time, I'm without help.
At least I don't have a family, but unfortunatly, both my friends are away, one is deployed, whereas the other is on leave stateside, and my girlfriend is busy as Hades, and unable to come on to base without me escorting her around, would need to leave by 2200 anyway and we wouldn't have any privacy.

Fortunatly, theres only a fortnight of the really stressful stuff left.
I'm a bit stressed, but I shall run this RAF game!

[Mordokai]

Just make damn sure to empty your PM box before the game starts, or you're in for a heap of trouble I should know, I've ran one of these.

[Copacetic]

Can... can it be? It can! No one has claimed WAsh! Wheeeee!



In, as WASH



I think we should call it.... your grave!
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

[Uncle Festy]

In as GLaDOS, for no particular reason.

[Dallas-Dakota]

nd my girlfriend is busy as Hades, and unable to come on to base without me escorting her around, would need to leave by 2200 anyway and we wouldn't have any privacy.

Atleast you have a girlfriend. Lucky you.

[Destro_Yersul]

I'm not one to break a great tradition, so sign me up as Death.

With a six-shooter.

What?

[Recaiden]

I'll join this one. Sounds fun.

[Freshmeat]

I'm in as Mordokai.

Yes, this is going to get confusing.
