The Amazing Race Through Time!

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Sun Aug 25, 2013 2:25 pm

Post by CuddlyCaucasian »

I'll be running a game of The Amazing Race, mainly casual and just for fun!

To enter, /in in-thread and name the user that you want to be your partner. That player must also confirm they want to play, but the first player's /in will secure that team's spot. I'm planning a 12-team game, but I'll take slightly more or less based on interest.

Much of the game will be based on dice rolls and simple challenges (no live stuff sry) but skills on your application will play a role as well. Applications will be due 48 hours after sign-ups have filled up, but if y'all could send them in faster, I could make stuff happen sooner and yeah. ^.~

Spoiler: Application
Team members and Relation


Navigation Skills – 150 points allotted for team


Map Reading – Decreases chance of getting lost in populated area
Intuition – Decreases chance of getting lost in rural area
Driving Speed – Decreases amount of time to travel, adds chance for law enforcement tickets (penalties)

Foreign Languages – Choose two for team


Spanish – Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in Spanish speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in Spanish speaking countries
French – Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in French speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in French speaking countries
Italian – Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in Italian speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in Italian speaking countries
Chinese – Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in Chinese speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in Chinese speaking countries
Japanese – Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in Japanese speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in Japanese speaking countries
German – Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in German speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in German speaking countries
Russian – Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in Russian speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in Russian speaking countries
Arabic - Decreases chance of getting lost in taxi in Arabic speaking countries, Increases chance of receiving correct directions in Arabic speaking countries

Conquering Fears – 150 Points (for each member)


Heights – Increases speed of completing tasks with heights
Animals – Increases speed of finishing tasks with animals
Stomach – Increases speed of completing tasks with food

Skills – 300 points (for each member)


Strength – Increases Speed of finishing tasks using strength
Speed – Increases speed of finishing tasks using speed
Dexterity – Increases speed of finishing tasks using dexterity
Intelligence – Increases speed of finishing tasks using intelligence
Memory – Increases speed of finishing tasks using memory
Artistic – Increases speed of finishing tasks based on art
Sports – Increases speed of finishing tasks based on sports
Aquatics - Increases speed of finishing tasks in or on the water


Order of teams will be revealed at each pit stop and at important checkpoints (
but sometimes I'll keep things secret
) (implying most of the time) (
oooh suspense
). Each leg will eliminate the pair that gets in last place.
OR WILL IT?!
Yeah usually

Teams:

1. Keybladewielder & KingdomAces
2. JasonWazza & Blackberry
3. Marquis & D3f3nd3r
4. Fuzzybutternut & DiplomatDC
5. RedPanda & Lord Mhork
6. TS & Snakes
7. Puzzledan & TheBadOne
8. Lyrebird & Columbine

I would have guessed siamese twins, but I guess it's possible to be both.

Hey too bad fussy, you get another guy :P
But I can personally speak (although I flunk all my relevant tests) a bit of Chinese, guess that's a plus.
