An ill-advised text-based adventure:

[Snakes]

Action: Examine bars

Action: Attempt to seduce guard when he comes back. After he unlocks the door to my cell, run out

If that doesn't work,

Action: Check if there is toilet paper. If there is, tear off half the roll of toilet paper, take one end and tie one end to the middle. When the guard comes by, try to lasso his key

[EspeciallyTheLies]

lol......... TP lasso

[Nicholas1024]

Enter action: Examine the ceiling and floor for any loose tiles, light fixtures, or other features of note. Check whether I also have a concussion.

[Jackel98]

Hello, people.

Action: Put underpants on head. Call for medical attention. Try to use psychic powers to lift player_Antihero

That works, right?

[KingdomAces]

Okay, this is ridiculous. Why did I not decide to look at this sooner? Anyway, as a test...

Personal Action: Attempt to go to sleep on the horribly mutilated bed.

And by personal actions, I mean I am invoking

they specifically state their action is theirs alone

because I can't think of a better short way to say that.

[Psyche]

Hello, people.

Action: Put underpants on head. Call for medical attention. Try to use psychic powers to lift player_Antihero

That works, right?

my powers aren't that special

[EspeciallyTheLies]

we should all try to use esp at the same time. maybe we are stronger as a collective.


heh


a collective

[beastcharizard]

I am curious to how much freedom we have. I am going to try some weird things here.

Self Action: Realize I am skinny enough to fit through the bars of the cell so I squeeze through the bars and then look around to see if there is a place to hide.

Action: Look to see if there are any empty cells.

Action: Summon a real life Charizard to come to my aid.

One of those is bound to work.

[beastcharizard]

Can we talk about this game outside of this thread?

[Blackberry]

Action: Examine bars

Action: Attempt to seduce guard when he comes back. After he unlocks the door to my cell, run out

If that doesn't work,

Action: Check if there is toilet paper. If there is, tear off half the roll of toilet paper, take one end and tie one end to the middle. When the guard comes by, try to lasso his key

I wanted to seduce the guard.

Action: Also attempt to seduce guard

"Hey stud, you been working out? I swear your muscles get bigger every day ."

[JDGA]

I think we'd have more success talking the guard into getting a sudden lifestyle change, but w/e.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

I think TTH should seduce the maintenance dude.

PROCESSING......

Many apologies for my absence from the game. I've had a VERY rough week and haven't been able to give attention everywhere, this game included. I spoiled you with updates every day, so I do apologize for probably making you think I had abandoned the game when the updates stopped coming in. As this shows, obviously, I didn't--I just couldn't get around to it until now.

So in the future, I suppose I can say this: when I can, I will update every day, but if I don't update for a while, don't lose hope on the game. Now without further ado...

ok, just for clarification, if i do something does that mean EVERYONE else does the same thing, or is it just me? i was under the impression it was the latter

It is both. Some actions are done by all, some actions are done by only the specific individual. Assume, however, that unless they specifically state they are doing an action that conflicts with your own, that they are unable to do your action, or you specify that it is just you, then the others will mirror your actions.

Can we talk about this game outside of this thread?

Though I see no reason why you would want to, there is nothing preventing you from doing this.

Player "vettrock" has entered the game.

enter game. Check out the door, the kind of lock, and the hinges.

Action: Study how the door works

The cell door is like this:


There is no door other than that which you can see, though doors may exist in the distance.

ENTER ACTION:

_____

---

action: loosen the screws in the bed "with a great amount of effort"

You diligently work to loosen a screw on the bed. Though your fingers become raw and bloody in the effort, you manage to pull a single screw out from the fastener, and now have access to it.

ENTER ACTION:

_____

---

Enter action: Examine the ceiling and floor for any loose tiles, light fixtures, or other features of note. Check whether I also have a concussion.

You do in fact have what may be a mild concussion. It is nothing serious, but it is painful. In this state, you observe the ceiling and floor, but find nothing but rock.

ENTER ACTION:

Player "KingdomAces" has entered the game.

Personal Action: Attempt to go to sleep on the horribly mutilated bed.

While everyone around you attends to various tasks, you rest your injuries by going to sleep, however temporarily, on the mutilated bed.

ENTER ACTION:

_____

(You do know that "I" is a personal statement, right? Just say "I do this", rather than action: this if you want it to be only you.)

---

Self Action: Realize I am skinny enough to fit through the bars of the cell so I squeeze through the bars and then look around to see if there is a place to hide.

Action cancelled: the guard is on the way! You do not want to be caught escaping, do you?

ENTER ACTION:

_____

---

Player "Jackel98" has entered the game.

Action: Put underpants on head. Try to use psychic powers to lift player_Antihero

You put your underpants on your head for whatever possible reason that you may have for doing so. Though you attempt to lift player_Antihero up, all you are able to make player_Antihero do is stand up and jump to the ceiling, touching it lightly.

---

Action: Examine bars

There is nothing to be observed in the bars. There is no visible structural weakness in the bars themselves, though the lock may be vulnerable if you have the right materials......

Action: Check if there is toilet paper.

There is none. You do not even have a sponge. Barbaric, is it not? Well, it is what you get for being a prisoner.

---

Request medical attention

Action: Say "I'm sooo hungry, can't I get something to eat?" and make fake rumbling sounds..

Action: Attempt to seduce guard when he comes back. After he unlocks the door to my cell, run out

Call for medical attention.

Action: Also attempt to seduce guard

"Hey stud, you been working out? I swear your muscles get bigger every day ."

The guard comes down with a maintenance worker in tow, heading to the cell with the leak. As you call out to him, he yells out, "SHUT UP!"

After hearing your requests slowly again, he responds, "One at a time. I'll deal with your issues one at a time. And..." Giving the...

oddest

of looks to player_Snakes and player_Blackberry, he continues, "...I'll save ~you~ for last." The weird, demented grin on his face (shudders run down the spine of all other inmates) makes you think that maybe, just maybe, seducing a GUARD, in a PRISON, may not have been the brightest of ideas......

ENTER ACTION:

_____

[AcRv]

I think that we should focus all of our actions to make the guard let us out using our powers we appear to have. I'll happily take all the blame if anything goes wrong and make the guard think I'm the threat so he'll go for me first and allow you all to escape. Either that or whoever's furthest from the end without the exit. Do we want to do this? If so, should we wait for all the doctors/chefs/maintenance workers to get out before trying? Should we try on one of them?

[AcRv]

Also, the computer responds to actions as soon as it can, so if anyone does make an action now it could throw off any timings for actions that NEED to be done now. Though we can make the action "All do this" so we won't have to wait for everyone to get online to do that if we decide to.

[Cheery Dog]

I doubt the guard is smart enough to fall for ESP powers though, maybe the maintenance worker?

[AcRv]

If the maintenance worker has a key, definitely. He can probably give us some makeshift weapons from his toolbox too.

Any other thoughts?

[AcRv]

Someone may have to occupy the guard as the worker lets enough of us out to overpower him though.
