Gladiator (v4) | Game 5 | Sign-Up Phase

RareMeat · 2020-11-23 06:25:55 UTC

it seems the problems i thought we had don’t exist

which means i’ll start the game when i can, tomorrow

RareMeat · 2020-11-24 00:47:00 UTC

i’m now going to pair you all up as per the duos formation so that you can have discussion before the bloodshed begins.

you will be put into a realmeye dm with your partner. nothing from this dm can be revealed until after the game has finished. once i have put you with your partner, you may make a discord chat with them as well (which i must also be in, of course). the same rule applies to the realmeye dm. what happens in the dm, stays in the dm.

RareMeat · 2020-11-25 02:11:54 UTC

so.

turns out i can’t start the game because my computer won’t boot, like it turns on but nothing happens.

…

Rabcord · 2020-11-25 11:14:21 UTC

did you download too many things?

RareMeat · 2020-11-25 11:20:13 UTC

no?

TROLLDLLR · 2020-11-26 02:08:38 UTC

Finally xD

gl running the game rare

RareMeat · 2020-11-28 12:53:15 UTC

good news, my computer is back up and running again. this means i can actually start the game.

but tomorrow, since it’s nearly midnight.

i hope i’m not tempting fate too much.

Maddymoon · 2020-11-28 17:58:01 UTC

3 years later : oh, good, the apocolypse is finally over, i’ll start the game tomorrow.

Xaklor · 2020-11-28 19:16:50 UTC

at least he’s willing to sit on the game indefinitely, if this was realmafia I’d have canceled it by now instead of waiting for someone to summon the guts to sign up.

Platformz, Nameness, TROLLDLLR and Twitchystr are standing around inside the rainbow sphere when Carl approaches them. They show them what is seemingly a shard of a blue crystal.

“Hey, you guys wanna get out of here?” They ask.

The team nods and Carl tells them to hold onto the shard. The shard then begins to glow, making them glow as well. They disappear in a flash of light and a crackle of electricity.

The left avatar notices the combatants leaving and urges the other two avatars to hurry up. The right avatar’s cracked eye then starts to glow and a beam of light shoots out of it, colliding with the floor and shattering it.

Nameness opens up their eyes and finds that they are looking at a blue sky. They notice the rainbow sphere in the distance and sit up, only to find Twitchystr lying on the ground and the others no where to be seen. Nameness quickly stands up and shakes Twitchystr awake and pulls them to their feet. The two look around each other to find that they are surrounded by a thick forest of trees.

“Twitchystr, where are the others?” Nameness asks.

Before Twitchystr can respond, Carl reveals themselves from the dense gathering of trees and talks for them.

“The others are gone. You two fell asleep after teleporting, that happens to some people.” Carl looks up and sees the three avatars descending slowly down into the forest. “Looks like we have company.”

Nameness, prompted by Carl’s words, glances behind themselves and also sees the avatars. The three watch as a dome begins to surround the forest and trap them inside. “Darnit, we’ve been strung into one of their games again.” Nameness looks at Twitchystr and they both nod. They then both run, in opposite directions, into the forest. Carl continues to stare at the avatars, while taking a coin out of their cloak.

“I’m not letting all of those combatants escape.” says the left avatar, as it touches the ground and surveys the forest. The other two land behind it.

“You may be gamemaster this time.” says the middle avatar. “I’m going to have to keep a close eye on this one.” It turns to the right avatar, it’s cracked eye is now fizzling with sparks. “You do have some combatants within your pocket dimension to populate this forest, right?”

“As a matter of fact, I do actually.” The left avatar then opens a portal above the forest, a number of combatants fall out of it and land in the forest. The left avatar closes it and then turns around to find Carl looking up at it. “Oh, it’s you.”

“Yeah, it’s me.”

“You let them escape.”

“You guys weren’t doing much.” Carl looks behind it at the other two avatars, specifically examining the right avatar the most. “It looks like your friend there is having trouble.”

“Because of your fireworks.” The left avatar raises it’s hand threateningly at Carl. “Tell me why I shouldn’t vaporise you on the spot.”

“I didn’t set those fireworks off and your friend put themselves in danger in the first place. Besides, you need me.” Carl reveals their hand, which has a coin in it and flips it.

“Need you?” The left avatar recoils at the words. “How?”

“What if I told you that I’m able to fix up your friend?” Carl’s tone gives off the possibility of a smile hiding underneath the cloak.

The left avatar laughs at Carl’s claim. “What would you know about us? You’re but an ant to us.”

“You barely know anything about me, avatar.”

The middle avatar puts it’s hand on the left avatar’s shoulder. “Stand down. Carl is still useful to us.”

“Thank you, now leave me be so I can set up shop for this game. We shall discuss the crack later.” The middle avatar nods and the three walk away from Carl.

RareMeat · 2020-11-29 05:12:28 UTC

i don’t remember who wanted to be pinged at the start of each round so you’re gonna have to remind me

Rabcord · 2020-11-29 05:48:38 UTC

i think it was @Maddymoon, @Orsome, and @dbiz. i might’ve missed some others, but that’s about it as far as i remember.

Don’t forget me! Especially now that this isn’t one of the only threads I actively track anymore… -Book

right, i forgot about you @XBookwyrmX.

Xaklor · 2020-11-29 07:38:33 UTC

apparently chanting “now kiss” doesn’t work on these avatar things even when inside the gay dimension, and now they’re out. big sad.

Twitchystr · 2020-11-29 08:30:23 UTC

me

Gidey · 2020-11-29 09:09:40 UTC

Canonical reason the game took so long to prepare: It took that long to find a way out of that rainbow dome.

RareMeat · 2020-11-30 04:34:16 UTC

the following combatants have submitted death quotes:
nameness
rabcord

that’s it lol

RareMeat · 2020-12-01 04:16:44 UTC

i’m going to delay the beginning of the next round by 24 hours because of the large gap between games to ease everyone in and let them remember the rules and submit their actions properly

XBookwyrmX · 2020-12-01 04:17:46 UTC

Sorry… I posted mine in the wrong place, folks; don’t be like me!

Dbiz · 2020-12-01 17:19:44 UTC
