Default Ready Aim Fire XXXI - Yukon Ho!

Ready Aim Fire XXXI - Yukon HO!

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


Games so far:

Spoiler


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:

Castaras
Dallas Dakota
billtodamax
Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins
Diva de

(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).

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.
