This game is based on Silkenfist's idea. Thank you Silkenfist for this! This is RAF Classic, the original, free-for-all RAF game. You can find Team RAF, the team-based variant of this game in the Forums when Lord Herman decides to continue the series (or gives it to someone else).
The main rules (spoilered because I think most of the people know them already they are a bit long. There might be a few of you who don't know them given the last game happened over a year ago so don't hesitate, give it a look. The spoiler isn't biting.):
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. 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.
The theme for this iteration is the big gold rush in the Yukon area, you're all prospects who want to find some fortune, maybe even the famous goose egg nugget (which will become famous the minute you'll find it). Of course you have to overcome some obstacles first, the Chilcoot Pass, the cold, the rain, the mounties and of course your fellow prospectors.
Sign ups are starting now and will last a week till about the 22nd February 2012!
Although the auto-notify list is a bit old I will PM the people on this list when the thread is up (and they haven't already signed up).
Here it is:

(If you want to be on this list, too, just tell in thread, I think I want to make a game all two months or so)
PS: Roleplay is nice but not necessary. It just makes my work easier (sometimes at least).

I'm in, just like these other people. Even though you said sign ups aren't started yet. I guess....I'm camping out in front of the theater or whatever.

In as Frederich von Strafen, a German alchemist who is going to turn all his invested lead into gold. Or at least get an 1:1 exchange rate with the help of his new blunderbuss.

By the way, everyone who doesn't give me a role will maybe get one in the narration.

Lord Jin steps forward, a curious sight for miles around.
Despite the heat, he wears a blue trenchcoat, complete with hat and boots, an assortment of winter wear.
From his side, a sniper hangs from his belt, the shiny barrel reflecting off his gold tooth as he grins, boots kicking up dust as he walks through the plains.
The self-hired bodyguard/ gold prospector is in town.
