Borderlands Mafia [FULL]

Legends tell of a magnificent Vault created by the long-extinct Eridians and hidden away on the lawless planet of Pandora. For many, the Vault is merely a fanciful story spoken in the bemused tones of a parent reciting a fairy tale to their children. But for those of us who have actually been to Pandora -- ah, we know better, don't we? The Vault is real, my friend. The Vault is very real indeed.

You may be wondering to yourself -- what manner of treasure awaits us inside this mystical Vault? Could it be riches beyond your wildest imaginations? Maybe it's filled with advanced alien technology that could change our pitiful civilization forevermore. Perhaps it's brimming with information, knowledge, and answers to all the questions that we were never smart enough to ask before.

What is REALLY inside the Vault? Nobody knows for sure. But then again, that's all part of the allure, isn't it? Those who gamble with their lives and travel to the untamed world of Pandora in search of this most elusive prize call themselves Vault Hunters. This is not just their story; this is the story of all of us who have ever been crazy enough to chase a far-fetched dream even though the rest of the galaxy said we were foolish to do so. This is the story of the Borderlands.

In post 4, YT2980 wrote:/in

In post 5, YT2980 wrote:/out, however, if not having the prerequisite, although in appearance somewhat lenient, 2-game on-site experience is an issue. I have some experience elsewhere if that amounts to anything. Also, the flavor is intriguing.

After some private discussion with YT2980, this /in is accepted.

As long as you can make an honest effort to try to post during that time, it shouldn't be a problem.

Sure, if you know someone who can cover for you during that week and a half when you'll be gone, that's fine with me.

Almost there! Are you excited? I'm excited. Let's see if we can get this game rolling by the weekend.

Noted.

In post 44, T S O wrote:Not not Varsoon means that he is Varsoon. Demanding alt checks.

I_Am_Not_I_Am_Not_Varsoon has confirmed their identity to me privately, so we're good.

Also, uh, just as a public service announcement to everyone: With so many different Varsoons running around, please be extra specific when voting. I can already see myself recording a vote for Varsoon just to have someone say, "No, no, I meant to vote for the
other
Varsoon."

In post 45, Almost50 wrote:P.S. No idea about the theme though.

Not a problem. Flavor knowledge is helpful, but not necessary. If you want a quick overview, try poking around the Borderlands Wiki.

You're free to request whatever you want. Whether I actually
grant
that request will depend on how outrageous the request is and how many Reese's Pieces you try to bribe me with.

Pshaw. You mean you're more concerned with responsibly continuing your education to ensure a better future for yourself and your loved ones than playing a stupid online forum game?
Somebody
needs to get their priorities straight.

Radical. Thanks so much for signing up, everybody! I apologize for the delay and for the drama from earlier. Again, if you have any questions or concerns about anything, please send me a PM so we can talk things over privately.

I'll create the game thread and distribute role PMs tomorrow afternoon. Get hyped!
