Rachmaninoff

[QUOTE=Allamorph][FONT=Arial]No. I don't. (And here I thought people would remember how to play Clue....) Following that line of reasoning takes approximately half a second. Go figure.[/FONT][/QUOTE]Then please tell what title you are referring to since I thought you were talking about the one for this chapter. I have no clue what you mean. Also...I've never played Clue. :animesigh So yeah, thanks for making me feel stupid since I still don't get it. [QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed] :animesigh Okay then. The rp is under your guidance, I'll just throw out cards once and a while and tell you when you've found the exit. I'm not even gunna post in the main thread anymore. If you want, I can even delete that whole section where they have sex, then just back away completely. EDIT: thank you for understanding, Allamorph[/COLOR][/QUOTE]Just forget I said anything. I don't care anymore. Post whatever you want. It's your RPG. So Lucia and Sastasha banged each other, both of them are probably going to end up dead anyway as well as Nadia so who cares? I give up. EDIT: To be clear, I just wanted to address things not make you feel like you have to quit. Or alter things just because I or someone else thinks it doesn't fit.

[quote name='BKstyles][font=tahoma']Let's all try to be a little more civil about matters concerning the game, there are ways of clearing up and solving everything without the usage of defensiveness or accusations. That is what makes all the drama and tension happen, and it's what makes everyone feels isolated from the game. Everyone should be in the loop here.[/font][/quote]I can't help but think that this is directed at me since no one else has been accusing. However I do thank you for your post since you put into words what I was feeling but wasn't quite putting together the reason's as to why I was feeling it. Namely, the degeneration of Lucia's character. The sex scene was jarring and did not fit. Secondly, Nadia's behavior and to be fair to DB it never occurred to me that he was completely unfamiliar with Tolkien so the way she behaved was jarring as well. And even though DB is saying the psycho-killer could be anyone in the third group, as SunfallE Already pointed out Brittany was the only one who had been newly programmed. So naturally I assumed that it was her and not the other two. The whole thing annoyed the hell out of me, enough that I was ready to simply walk away and be done with things. It comes across as manipulation even if that was not DB's intent. Personally I've enjoyed the game even with the issues. But that last post just had me seeing red. And obviously, even though I tried to tone it down I failed. So for that I apologize.

[quote name='Allamorph][FONT=Arial]Look to [COLOR=DarkRed]Darren[/COLOR']'s title and Chillax. Let's not have a repeat of the previous soap opera, shall we?[/FONT][/quote]Don't you mean DB's title? Either way, it's still a contradiction and frankly, it's annoying the hell out of me since I feel like on some level DB's manipulating things to have them go the way he wants instead of leaving it up to the players. I'll put it more clearly...First he insisted Brittany wouldn't harm anyone and guess what? Now she's a psycho waiting to kill...no surprise there. Then he has Nadia acting like nothing happened after she was assaulted for two hours. And then we throw in the 'consensual sex' which was really just 'fan service sex' for the sake of having it in there. So honestly, telling me to chill is irritating as well since it's frustrating to learn one thing and come back to the damn thread only for it to have been reversed completely. Which is why I was saying I was going to step back for a bit, since I'd rather expose my characters and simply pull out. So I'm already trying to chill. :animeangr

I hate to bring this up, but DB your post and BKstyles contradict one another. In BKstyles he indicated that Nadia had been caught for over two hours as you can see here:[quote name='BKstyles][FONT=Tahoma][color=darkslategray][B]She hated every moment of what had been happening to her since she got caught two hours ago.[/B] Two hours...it seemed like she had almost made it, but at the same time thinking about how much can happen in two hours, it didn't seem that way at all. [/FONT][/color][/QUOTE]The you came along here and basically said nothing happened.[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]Nadia felt depressed, but strangely enough, her physical pain had vanished. She felt completely rejuvenated - like she?d visited a spa or something. She closed her eyes and nearly began to cry as she recounted it. [B]She?d only narrowly escaped in time.[/B'] She had started to feel it already - the man coming down over her. Thinking about it made her cringe.[/COLOR][/quote]No offense, but just which is it? Maybe you can clear it up BKstyles since I got the impression that what Nadia narrowly escaped was being killed. :animesigh Sorry DB, but seriously, this is irritating. Since that's a pretty big detail to mess up. And at this point after everything else I'm just too frustrated to even care about posting. I'm going to back away from this for a day or two since at this point the game has become more irritating than fun.

Here's [I]That's Love...[/I] [URL=http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/9308/thatsloveua1.jpg]That's Love[/URL]

Well BKstyles, even if indifference started it, you certainly finished it! Damn if this one isn't as sick and twisted as the Maze got near the end. o_O All because I had Nadia save others from being crushed and they still ended up dead anyway. It's still cracking me up since the concept of helping others out only makes sense, but I guess unlike the religion rule and the putting yourself in danger to help someone else, the other rules must be quite different since no one has stumbled on one yet. I'm worried that one of my own characters will end up getting nailed. o_O Part of me is curious and the other is cringing at the thought of what indifference will do next if it happens again. I swear Crystia! You're a little [I]too [/I]good at those sick posts! And no playing innocent! After all you [I]were [/I]responsible for some interesting posts in the Maze too! :p

[quote name='2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]Also, I'm mad that I may have ruined Brittany's chances. She's not a psycho damn you! In fact, she's the opisite. She is experiencing perfect mental stability. There's no way in hell she'd kill anyone.[/COLOR][/QUOTE]What did you expect? Since the nature of this game is we can develop the characters in any manner that we see fit. I don't like the idea of you coming along and telling us what the characters are like, since you didn't specify that from the get go. That she wouldn't 'harm' anyone. In fact as you can see here:[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]Meredith smiled gleefully. She had already been happy to be alongside the beautiful Delilah, and now this other girl looked to be a wild one as well. [/COLOR][/QUOTE]You referred to her as a 'wild one' If we don't have the freedom to develop them then what's the point? Besides you did put this in your post:[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed][B]?You know what you can do now??[/B] he asked, his voice now almost completely having fallen. Brittany nodded. She didn?t understand it, but [B]she could feel that some dark power had been placed within her. Not just a power to control the darkness? a power to create it?[/B][/COLOR][/QUOTE]I mean,[B] hello[/B], if she got the memory from Deoky then it was a logical conclusion that she could have gotten his power as well. And that's something you yourself stated here, that Deoky was involved, even if it was just a memory:[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]So, [B]Brittany's [/B] back. Only now, the [B]Panopticon [/B] used a memory of [B]Deoky Shilos [/B] to torment her and show her the fall of [B]Christianity[/B], removing her faith entirely. Now she sees things in the eyes of the [B]CCC [/B'] and has become what they deem a 'perfect' being.[/COLOR][/quote]And correct me if I'm wrong but the CCC isn't exactly very nice. lol And you never clarified just what CCC deems to be a perfect being. Also this part here:[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]Nonono! She killed him though! She made him loose his powers and disentigrate! You should be happy at her for getting rid of him forever! As fro why he did it, we'll have to find out as the plot unveils...[/COLOR][/QUOTE]I can understand if you have a plot in mind, but I sure as hell am not going to hold back since that would be unfair to the other players. Even if it was mine, if you start giving the impression that we can't kill just for some plot you have in mind, then what's the point? If it makes you feel any better, the next time you post in a manner that has me instantly wanting to kill the character I'll just keep my mouth shut. :p Also try leaving this kind of stuff out too:[quote name='2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]Darren, I LOVE what you did with Meredith! [strike]She better survive, dammit! >_

Hehe, I didn't know what to expect from the list and it ought to be interesting since other than to follow along when the Otaku Idol 2 was going on before I joined OB, I don't know a lot about White. And seeing that the first duel was not what I was expecting at all it has me supremely curious as to what the duel will be when we get to that point. I'm both nervous and excited to get to that point. Anyway, seeing that you are up first SunfallE I'll be cheering for you. Since I know that regardless of who Sandy finally chooses, you'll do an excellent job. ;)

[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]So, [B]Brittany's [/B] back. Only now, the [B]Panopticon [/B] used a memory of [B]Deoky Shilos [/B] to torment her and show her the fall of [B]Christianity[/B], removing her faith entirely. Now she sees things in the eyes of the [B]CCC [/B] and has become what they deem a 'perfect' being. Bet you ALL saw that coming XD[/COLOR][/QUOTE]*shakes fist* Now you've gone and made sure that there are two characters I want dead the next round. I swear, anything tied to Deoky in any form needs to [I]die[/I]. Still you gotta love it, gruesome deaths at the hands of the Golem, I could easily imagine Claire's head going flying when her body got yanked through the door. o_O And then that psychological one where the assassin died because he killed. Ouch! I like how the deaths are varied instead of all being the same. And I liked the rather tomb raider feel to your death Allamorph. Sometimes simple traps are the best. lol

I hear you Sandy...Especially since we still have a ton of characters even after three were erased and a bunch have been killed. And speaking of killed, lists etc. Here's the status quo after my post. [SIZE=1] [SIZE=3][B]Group One[/B][/SIZE] Sastasha Sandares Mary Winters Lucia Travera Katar Dakit [SIZE=3][B]Group Two[/B][/SIZE] Moatilliata Graden Merik Jeffers Kayrel Malone Oromis Tu'wail Julian Marx [SIZE=3][B]Group Three[/B][/SIZE] Eliana Cedes Uriel Blaine Delita Lytle Alcuin nó Prideux Dafine Hecata Etamet Penelope "Penny" Archess Serena Scarlatti [SIZE=3][B]Group Four[/B] [/SIZE] Meredith Taylor Delilah Rousseau [SIZE=3][B]Imprisoned[/B] [/SIZE] Brittany Cossentine Nadia Dylenda [SIZE=3][B]Dead[/B][/SIZE] Angela Godspeed Eloris Renten Shilos Krieger Lillathica Desmond Sykes Marius Stratums Claire Montoya Marcus Fenix Damian Legion[/SIZE] And now that I spent close to two hours writing my post I'm gonna go and get some sleep. :sleep: [B]EDIT: [/B]Oh and before I forget. I say that we [B]imprison DB[/B] if he decides to use a life card this round. ;P

[SIZE=3][CENTER][U][B]Group One[/B][/U][/CENTER][/SIZE] Katar watched until Meredith and Delilah were out of sight. There wasn't much they could do anyway. The cavern was enormous and the chasm easily close to a hundred feet wide. It wasn't like the two women could jump to reach them. When they had first entered the area one could see that the walls, floor and ceiling were made of metal. The wall on the left as well as the high ceiling that seemed to be shaped like a dome was clearly visible, making it was obvious that they were near the side since once they had walked a short distance, following what had seemed to be a path due to how worn the metal looked. The wall to the right sharply angled away until they could no longer see it. When they had reached the narrow walkway going across the chasm to what appeared to be the exit as it led to a small ledge along a massive wall that also went to the right as far as they could see. It was apparent that unless they wanted to follow the edge of the chasm and look for another walkway, they were better off crossing and going through the doors on the other side. Lucia had taken Mary across immediately, and once Sastasha had followed, Katar had done so as well. After all there was no point in sticking around. After what had happened he didn't trust the walls to keep the Golem that had killed Marius, Claire and Marcus from smashing through them to get to them. The more distance they put between them the better. And if the Golem did find it's way in here, they would have no where to run if they were following the chasm. Going through the doors on the other side seemed liked the best path to take. But even Katar had not expected the walkway to collapse, it had felt just fine when he had walked across it. But there was nothing they could do and unlike Meredith who could look for another way, they were standing on a small ledge protruding from the wall. The only way they could go was through the doors. [I]I wish this fool would wake up.[/I] Katar thought as he shifted Damian on his shoulders a bit. And then turned to Sastasha. "[B]Well, what are you waiting for? Open the door already. He's not exactly lightweight you know.[/B]" "[B]Ah, sorry,[/B]" Sastasha said. He stepped forward but the doors opened automatically. Revealing what appeared to be a classroom. As they entered the room it was clear that it was a type of room for lectures. The group was near the back of the room and as soon as they stepped through the doors closed and vanished. Rows of tables with chairs were set up on levels that sloped downward. Cautiously the group started down the stairs between the rows of tables, heading towards the front of the room where a giant chalkboard was up on the wall. On each side of the board was a set of double doors. Katar could feel Damian starting to stir and set him down, a moment later he finally woke up. [B]"It's about time you woke up.[/B]" Katar told him as he got up and looked around. Damian looked around wildly before turning back to Katar. "[B]Where are the others?[/B]" "[B]They're dead,[/B]" Katar said bluntly, ignoring how Damian went white as a sheet. "[B]The monster dropped down after us. I'm afraid the others weren't quick enough.[/B]" "[B]I'm sorry.[/B]" Damian stammered.[I] If I wasn't so weak I would have been able to help them![/I] He thought. But even though he could cast spells, he was still learning. And when they did work, the spells tired him out to easily. [I]I'm so useless.[/I] Lucia couldn't help herself since Damian seemed so distressed, without a thought she instantly moved forward and placed her right hand on his left shoulder to console him. "[B]Don't be,[/B]" she said kindly. "[B]If you hadn't helped us, we all would have died. Besides two of them didn't die,[/B]" Lucia shot Katar a stern glance for not explaining to Damian that the other women were alive. For letting Damian think that all of them were dead. "[B]We got separated, but they were just fine when we parted.[/B]" Lucia patted him on the shoulder and then let go. Stepping back a bit. "[B]Yeah, don't beat yourself up over it,[/B]" Sastasha said. "[B]Besides, we need to decide what to do next. Even if that thing can't get over the chasm, we still don't know which door to take.[/B]" Damian turned to look at the doors Sastasha indicated. Oh if only he were more than an apprentice. He could have used his power to try and sense what was behind them. But he was still too tired from what he had done earlier. Finally he shook his head. "[B]Perhaps we should go through the doors on the right?[/B]" Lucia suggested. "[B]The others sort of went in that direction. Maybe we could...[/B]" "[B]Shut up.[/B]" Katar said, startling the others who turned to look at him. "[B]Other than this guy,[/B]" he indicated Damian. "[B]The rest of you are pretty damn useless, and even he can't keep it together to well.[/B]" Lucia stepped back, reaching up with her right hand to cover her mouth. In all the confusion she had forgotten about what Katar had done when they first met. She took another step backwards. [I]How could I forget?![/I] "[B]Oh stop that.[/B]" Katar said with disgust. "[B]I already explained that you'd do better to just stand there and look pretty while the men discuss things.[/B]" He rolled his eyes. "[B]Even if there aren't any real men here besides myself.[/B]" "[B]Now just a minute here.[/B]" Sastasha started to object. "[B]No you listen, if we try to meet the others, its possible that the creature broke through the walls and followed them. Do you really want to meet up with that thing again?[/B]" Katar just stood there tapping his right foot impatiently. "[B]Well? Do any of you even know how to fight?[/B]" When there was no reply he continued. "[B]I thought so. Well I do. I'm a mercenary, before I was dragged to this hell hole I was working on collecting bounties. So even though I don't have any weapons with me, I do at least know how to fight. And if we want to survive, we'd be better off taking the left doors.[/B]" Damian turned and walked over to the doors on the right. "[B]How about I just take a peek?[/B]" He said, eager to help out. "[B]One of you could do the same for the other doors.[/B]" He didn't wait for an answer. Damian reached out and opened them, only to give out a startled shriek and stepped backwards, stumbling before falling backwards. With a loud thud the back of his head connected with the closet table and he slid down, unconscious yet again. A split second later the party saw what had frightened him as a huge cat like creature leaped into the room, landing on top of Damian and then sinking it's teeth into his head as it picked him up like a rag doll and shook him. Lucia started dragging Mary who was screaming towards the other door, barely registering the moment when the huge creature tossed Damian's lifeless body aside and leaped to attack Katar who was the closet. But Katar had not been lying when he said he knew how to fight. He had already picked up one of the chairs and swiftly rammed the bottom metal legs of the chair into the face of the creature as it attacked. One of the legs piercing it in the right eye and going deep into it's brain with the impact. With a primal how the creature backed away and thrashed madly. But quicker than Lucia, Mary or Sastasha would have thought possible, Katar had grabbed another chair and moved in to impale the creature yet again, this time into it's chest. Then he pulled free and jumped back out of range of the creatures death throes as it thrashed wildly before finally becoming limp. "[B]Well that was fun.[/B]" Katar said sarcastically. "[B]Still think we should take the doors going to the right?[/B]" He waited for a response and then continued when he got none. "[B]Good then lets get going before more of those things show up.[/B]" [CENTER]***************[/CENTER] [CENTER][IMG]http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b269/MetalSonic700/untitled1ad8.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b269/MetalSonic700/deathcardpanopticon.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER]

[QUOTE=Darren]Whoa there, tiger! :animeswea What's with the hostility? I didn't mean to offend; it was simply a comment... But just so you know, I do read every post before I make a reply unless I'm really pinned down on time. (which I wasn't) And when I said everybody, obviously I wasn't meaning [I]everybody[/I] since we have 10 players, and two aren't going to be posting about themselves... The only ones who even had a chance to say something were Sandy, Allamorph, Rachmaninoff, SunfallE, DB, and myself... Soliel and BK hadn't posted so yes, it was exaggerated. :animeangr Also, I dind't mean to imply that everyone was being mean to both Prem and HellsMinion. What was I supposed to do? Make a list of the people who had a problem with Prem and a list of those who had one with HellsMinion??? [/QUOTE]Well just as you were not trying to imply everyone was being mean I was not trying to be hostile. ;) And like SunfallE said, it's harder to know intent with just words. I suppose since all of us are getting so worked up it just shows that on some level we are really into this, even if it does seem a bit wacky with so many characters at the moment. So meh, don't take it that way since it wasn't how I meant it.

[QUOTE=Sandy]I'm sorry, but this game is a mess. People don't seem to be following the characters' actions and motives and personalities, and the locations switch without a mention. Where's the consistency, guys? Is this game [I]too[/I] much for us to handle? I think we all should try to stay more focused, so that this game won't take a dive to the dumpster. :/ Again, sorry to sound a sour-pus, but I wish I could find this game more enjoyable. Maybe it will be, after we get rid of all the dead-weight characters...[/QUOTE]Sandy! Generalizations like that are useless! You're essentially accusing everyone of being a mess and lacking consistency! :animesigh How about some examples? I'll use SunfallE as one, perhaps you feel like she didn't describe the underground cavern well enough, or the metal room where Claire died? If so can't you just say hey SunfallE, could you describe it better? [And by the way that was just an example] But seriously, we can't read your mind so would it be [I]TOO [/I]much for you to be clearer? And in case you've forgotten, in the Maze, people weren't consistent with characters personalities at all. Eflair was weak and timid and others turned her in to far more later on. I can't imagine someone's personality being 'consistent' in a situation like they are in. So yeah, there's my two cents on it. Not that I don't think you have a valid compliant Sandy, but without some direction it comes across as[I] all of you suck[/I] instead of being helpful. Oh and for the record, other than Prem's posts, I haven't had any trouble keeping up. *sigh* And one other thing, I do think that thirty characters was just a bit too much to keep track of with everyone being able to control them.

You and I have the same ride desertphoenix. Unless my parents are being generous and letting me borrow theirs. Though I also use the light rail system we have here in SLC, UT as well. I suppose it would help if I hadn't used my savings to buy a really nice cello. I could have bought a car with what I spent on it! Well an older used car that is. And it doesn't help that I'm looking into eventually getting a better instrument in the future. So hurray for public transportation!

[quote name='MistressRoxie][color=#9933ff']And do us all a favor, and don't pretend like you don't have cool away messages. Because I know that, in fact, you actually do. :p [/color][/quote]Yeah, as much as I'd like to pretend I do have an away message...I don't. About the only thing I've bothered with is a picture. So in fact, I do not have an away message. Because it never occurred to me to add one. And honestly, other than to chat with a few people I don't give much thought to messing with how it looks or what sayings it has. lol

[quote name='Darren']Well seeing as how you've all attacked the newbies and such, I just won't say anything because I'm kinda liking Hell'sMinion's posts... I just won't say anything about Premonition...[/quote]Try reading everyone's posts, not everyone had a problem with HellsMinions post, only that we thought part of it was a bit unbelievable and SunfallE didn't even mention him at all. Also...Premonition is not a newbie their user profile shows that they've been different names since they joined on 06-14-2006: Ålpha-Æpsilon, Split Keyblader, ForgotteÑ-HerÖ... Maybe new to RPG's but not a newbie... :animesigh [QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]Damn, you guys are good at guessing the punishments >_< I guess I gave a bit of a big hint. Honestly, I was surprised how fast 2 were broken - I knew some of them were simpler, but most are gunna have to take an extremely rutheless, cold-blooded inhuman rampaging psychopath to be executed by XD for the record, i gave Indiff no directions for the posts. They were 100% her ideas. I've just called 'dibs' on one or two people, and also if it's one of my characters it happens to, it doesn't get run by me beofre hand - that way I'll be surprised too, lol. [/COLOR][/QUOTE]Well, you didn't have to confirm that we managed to guess! :p I figured your rules were sick things so I never expected to encounter one by having a character be nice instead of a sicko. lol It surprised me as well since I didn't expect any imprisonments until much later in the game, you know like the final round of mine where things got a bit crazy! lol Meh, why am I not surprised about indifference? But then I know her. *pokes Crystia*[quote name='BKstyles][FONT=Tahoma]*sits in the corner throwing popcorn at Sandy* :([/FONT][/QUOTE]*joins in* After all where else can I get the chance to toss popcorn at Sandy for no reason other than to support a fellow player? :p[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed']Okay. so Prems out, hopefully order has been restored[/COLOR][/quote]That's too bad, though I'm glad it happened before I used my death card since I was going to kill off Shilos. lol Guess I need to pick a different character.

[QUOTE=Sandy][FONT=Century Gothic]I got the reference the first time you mentioned it. ;P Besides, I love the mythology behind the sunflower, but even you have to admit that considering [I]this[/I] game, the other team picked a more suitable name. Yours was more original, sure, but since both of them were so good, it had to come down to petty details. It only shows that the competition is getting more serious by every passing challenge. ;D[/FONT][/QUOTE]I'm getting the distinct impression that the competition is going to get pretty damn fierce if were are down to nitpicking the details. What makes me laugh is until Kathy mentioned it (in a pm while we were working on the flags) I hadn't thought of the reference. I was only thinking on how the characteristics of sunflowers being bright, bold and so forth really fit my fellow team mates. lol As well as their cheery natures. ;)

[QUOTE=Sandy]I'm sorry, [B]Premonition[/B], I know I'm sounding offensive, but that last post you wrote to the game... it was one of the corniest posts I've ever read. I mean, [I]come on[/I]! A hedgehog alien just [I]happens[/I] to know about his cartoon-lookalike invented in a whole other planet in a whole other time?! And Brittany just [I]happened[/I] to resemble Desmond's long lost sister who died an hour after they first met?! That's just overdoing it. Even in the game like this, there are limits to what's believable and what is outright ridiculous. Sorry, but I had to get this out of my system. And [B]Hellsminion6676[/B], godmodding much?[/QUOTE]You took the words right out of my mouth Sandy...Good grief! Though I'm not so sure on the godmodding, but still that was a bit unbelievable [B]Hellsminion6676[/B] And how about actually posting with a different group and different character [B]Premonition[/B]? Right now I have the urge to step on the hedgehog and kill it and shove Desmond over a cliff without a parachute. Just to get both of them out of the story.[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]As for Prem, I agree, that's really ****ing corny, and also you realize you're not supposed to use the same main character in every post. Your practically putting a target on his forehead, and i'll be pissed if someone dies just cuz you overused them. You're on the edge, Prem. Don't make me push you off. I know none of these guys will wait at the bottom, and I'll laugh as i watch you hit the ground. Oh yeah, and the killing starts now :D[/COLOR][/QUOTE]I'll do the shoving DB if you want to be the one to laugh when he hits the ground. Sorry [B]Premonition[/B] but with four posts and all of them on Desmond? :animesigh Sorry DB, but like Sandy I found that highly annoying. As well as the near godmodding since even though Deoky was a pain in the ***, we did have him balanced out by other characters who were equally as powerful. So it wasn't quite the same thing. Anyway, I'll be back later today to decide on who to take out. [B]EDIT:[/B] I almost forgot, at least indifference's post was sweet. I loved the anticipation since my first thought was hell! Who violated a rule this time?!? I read her post before I went back and read the others. LOL Anyway, since the rule was listed as six instead of four like last time I figure it's safe to assume that it was not religion that nailed Nadia since she didn't speak out loud about being a Druid. Knowing you DB *pokes* it was probably due to her risking her life to save someone else. Figures! We can have our character cruel and sadistic but the moment they are nice they get nailed. *dies laughing*

[quote name='BKstyles][font=tahoma']P.S - Woot @ Hellsminion for posting. Looks like that's everyone now.[/font][/quote]And now that I've posted with Nadia that means everyone has been either introduced or described in some manner. Though I'm going to wait on DB before I whip out my death card. Since I don't want to get clobbered for killing someone I shouldn't have. lol

[CENTER][SIZE=3][U][B]Group Two[/B][/U][/SIZE][/CENTER] Nadia Dylenda was shocked when the girl named Brittany had been taken. She hadn't known her really, just as she didn't know any of those who were there with her. But unlike Kayrel who seemed to go from confident to terrified or the stealthy Moatilliata who moved like a trained hunter or even the strange Oromis, Brittany's movements had been those of an innocent. She had not cautiously watched the others, nor had she panicked like Julian had when they had been caught in the trap of blood. All it seemed that she had done was to openly admit that she was religious. [I]Does that mean if I admit that I am a Druid I will be taken as well? [/I]She wondered. After all many considered the teachings of a Druid to be a type of religion. [I]I had better keep my mouth shut,[/I] she decided. Unwilling to risk the danger. There was no telling what the penalties would be for breaking the rules, even if they didn't know what the rules were. For all she knew Brittany's punishment could have been execution. But what bothered her the most was that other than Desmond, none of the others seemed to care. Though Merik seemed to be shocked and Shilos confused. She decided at that moment to stick closer to those three since out of the group, Desmond, Merik and Shilos seemed to hold the least secrets. At least based on how they behaved. Julian seemed to unstable and the others...Nadia just shook her head as she followed the group back down the hallway and into the next room listening to Desmond as he railed against those who had brought them here, furious over what had happened. But then even he fell silent as they entered the next area. "[B]Lovely,[/B]" Nadia said. Speaking for the first time and causing the others to turn and stare at her. In front of them was huge cavern, but what she was looking at was the huge stalagmites in the ceiling. Massive blocks of stone that looked just like a simple word would bring them crashing down. Moatilliata just gave her a measuring glance before with a fluid movement that the others couldn't follow he tossed something at the closest stalagmite. It didn't matter that the object was small, the stalagmite broke free and with a huge crash came flying down, smashing into tiny pieces that showered all of them. "[B]Shit! Shit! Shit![/B]" Julian said. "[B]What's with all these crazy rooms! Well there's no way I'm going through that![/B]" He turned to leave and halted as the doors slammed shut behind them and vanished. "[B]Just put a sock in it asshole,[/B]" Oromis said in disgust as he started across, avoiding the falling stalagmites. Julian started to yell only to halt when Moatilliata shot him a glance before following Oromis, the rest doing the same, sticking to the path he was clearing. Furious Julian followed them. The were halfway across when an entire section of the roof broke off and a shower of huge boulders came down towards Desmond and Shilos. With a startled oath Nadia quickly shoved Desmond and Shilos out of the way, barely avoiding being smashed herself. Desmond got back up from where he had went sprawling when Nadia had shoved him, intending to chew Nadia out for it and then stopped, his eyes going wide when he saw the huge pile of rocks where he had just been standing. "[B]Uh...Thanks.[/B]" He finally stammered as he realized that she had just saved his life. "[B]Yes, I thank you as well.[/B]" Shilos said. "[B]Forget it.[/B]" Nadia said as she walked past them and joined the others who were about to open the doors leading to the next area.

Darren was feeling pretty pleased for a change, even when Jared had told him the other day about his being required to stay on the Creator he had not been upset. And it was, in a small way, gratifying to see the puzzlement in Jared's eyes when he had not gotten upset. But then in all this time it was rare for him to have the upper hand, usually it was Jared who had it. Though in the end Darren would have been happier to never seen Jared again. A moment later, right on time the Creator along with the Conqueror dropped out of hyper space. And then a few minutes later as they passed by Reflection on their way to achieving orbit around their home world, he couldn't help but smile at the thought that Kerstin was there. Even when the message received chime sounded and he checked it to see that he was required to attend a meeting with the High Council tomorrow at 0600, it wasn't enough to upset him. It was pretty obvious that sooner or later he would be required to. As soon as he was done with the meeting he would contact Kerstin and talk to Jared about arranging things for him to either visit her on Reflection or for her to visit him on the Creator. Darren turned from the view of the home world now that the ship was in orbit and looked back on the open space of his quarters. Even with the meeting tomorrow he had already prepared reports for the High Council so there was nothing at that moment that he needed to do. He stood there for a while before finally fixing himself something to drink, he had only taken a sip when yet another chime sounded, the one indicating someone was at his door. Surprised he set the drink down on the counter in the kitchen area and walked back out into the main room before issuing the order for the door to open. It was a toss up as to who was the most surprised, Darren or his sister Kerstin who was standing there with one of the day officers. When neither one spoke the day officer did. "[B]Just be sure to escort her back to transport room three when you're done sir.[/B]" He said even as he gave Kerstin a gentle push. Then the door shut behind Kerstin once she was completely inside. Darren was speechless, wondering who had contacted Kerstin and arranged for her to be brought on board, but only for a moment. Only Jared and Sandra had the authority to approve a civilian being transported to the Creator. Before he could decide to respond Kerstin beat him to it. With a shriek of joy she flew across the room and hugged him so tightly that it felt like a rib was going to break. "[B]Whoa! Easy there![/B]" Darren laughed as he hugged her back. Then when she finally pulled back he was surprised to see tears in her eyes. "[B]Hey! What's that for?[/B]" He said as he brushed the tears away. "[B]You bum![/B]" Kerstin said even as she hugged him again before letting go. "[B]I've missed you![/B]" She mock glared at him before turning serious again. "[B]Besides for a while there, when you were kidnapped by the Resistance I thought I'd never see you again.[/B]" Darren shifted a bit uncomfortably since he had been thinking the same thing, that he would never see her again. "[B]I'm sorry.[/B]" "[B]What for? It's not like it was your fault dummy![/B]" Kerstin said even as she poked him. Then she hugged him again. "[B]I've really missed you.[/B]" She said again before finally pulling away yet again. "[B]Now, you have to tell me everything,[/B]" she demanded. "[B]You promised me an explanation as to how you ended up here and accepting the position to be the shipping expert for the High Council, so start talking![/B]" Darren just laughed at her mock serious expression before inviting her to take a seat on one of the sofas or chairs. God he had missed talking with her. Then once she had settled in he began, answering her questions as well as asking her ones about what she was up to. About the only thing he did not cover was some of the harassment he had endured from Jared. Sister or not, he did not want to discuss that with anyone.

[quote name='2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed']That's all up to you - Indifference is only in here for 1 post when a violation happens. brittany's fate is up to you, and besides, it's already been almost 12 hours. I think I'll go for longer sentences in the future >_

[quote name='2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]*points to edited post on last page* did yall miss the explanation?[/COLOR][/QUOTE]You mean this part?[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]It created [B]Cicatriz ESP[/B], a second entity that shared all the knowledge of Inertiatic, only it was crafted from the soul of the original winner of the maze, [B]Davis Henderson[/B'].[/COLOR][/quote]Since Davis Henderson was indifference's character in the Maze and he was the sole survivor? I'm in agreement with SunfallE, any character that indifference gets a hold of is completely screwed. LOL Still... it was a funny 'WTF' moment when I realized that she had posted... That's for sure, especially since she didn't sign up so I never expected her to sail in there with a '[I]Violation Detected[/I]' post and put Brittany in that hopeless situation. *thinks about it* Yup, Brittany's screwed.

Haha! SunfallE may be brave enough to poke you Sandy but I sure as hell am not! lol Still I find it rather ironic that even winning the challenge still means they don't know what the duel's will be. So if they match people up incorrectly it may not do the Aces any good. Now that the flag part is done I am supremely curious as to who I will be matched up with. And I dare say that after seeing what happened with the Story contest as well as the debates when I was no longer a part of this...underestimating us would be a grave mistake. ;) Though the same goes for us underestimating them as well. With that being said, I'm looking forward to the challenge.

[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkRed]>_< forget the list. I'm getting up at 5:30 AM tommorrow. I will read whatver posts you guys have done, and any characters I have not dee,ed introduced, I will introduce. No more confusion - before i got to school tommorrow everyone will be fair game, and Hell's better get the HEL IN HERE! *has an ulcer*[/COLOR][/QUOTE]I thought you said everyone had six days? :p Sounds like your more impatient for the killing to begin that we are. lol As for the intro's I agree with making shorter ones acceptable. I had everyone introduced in mine, but it was also a lot less characters and I introduced every creation character making them eligible to die from the get go. This time, even though there are more players, there are a lot more characters too. As for us killing people's character who don't post within the deadline, I though DB was saying that the CCC would deal with them? Though it would be fun to kill them. Personally I'm more interested in seeing the imprison card come into play since it's got my curiosity going as to just what would trigger it. lol Oh and I like the religion bit too. LOL! And for the record BKstyles, I thought you were turning Katar into someone who takes what ever he wants (as in a pervert) as well as a ruffian. :p
