ROUND 1 - RUBY

[ Once everyone is through the door it swings shut behind you. You find yourself in a narrow room, about two people across and eight people deep. On the back of the door is a stylized sun with six rays of light spiraling out of the center. In the center of the sun is a pair of lips and they begin speaking: ]

Each team is in a room like this. You will choose which teams to attack and which teams to defend. Tell me when you have reached your decision.

You have fifteen "points" to attack with. You may use these in bundles of five or more.

You have five "points" to defend with. You may use these in either two and three or all five at once.

You may not defend or attack yourself. And you may not decline to play.

(ooc: CHOOSE WHICH TEAM(S) TO ATTACK AND WHICH TEAM(S) TO DEFEND.

You can attack in any combination of points that adds up to 15 as long as the smallest amount you use is 5. (So, for instance you can attack Team A for 15 points. Or attack Team A for 8 and Team B for 7. Or attack Team D for all 15)

You can defend in either all 5 points to one team, or 2 points to one team and 3 to another. (Defend Team Z for 5 or defend Team Y for 2 and Team F for 3).

Number one, the--hooded figure expressed that a tie must be broken. Number two, having heard of this person's propensity for harming others in the course of these games, I do not think that a mass attempt to beat the system, as it were, in these circumstances, would do anything to mitigate the damage we receive, especially after receiving that warning. Number three, we have no reassurance that every other team will act according to this plan. If any team decides not to cooperate, the plan will fail anyway. I--cannot say that I know the nature of most of the people in . . . Aather. But I do not believe that every single one of them would act in accordance with--the wishes of one, or a few, or even the majority.
fairlyheroic: (But somehow I'll see it through.)

No, you're right, we don't know if every team will cooperate, and we don't even know for sure if this'll work.

But a plan is better than no plan, isn't it? And franky I don't want you guys to get hurt, and I really don't want to walk out there and see a bunch of people dead again.
unfortunateson: (you Howdy Doody looking motherfucker!)

[personal profile] unfortunateson 2011-03-07 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
I would appreciate not being hurt! But this isn't the way!

[personal profile] fairlyheroic 2011-03-07 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
I won't let you guys get hurt if I can help it. But there is no other way, it's not like we have a lot of options.
unfortunateson: (I'm more of a woman than you'll ever be.)

[personal profile] unfortunateson 2011-03-07 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
We can play to win.
unfortunateson: (It was for charity!)

[personal profile] unfortunateson 2011-03-07 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Why--after yesterday, being told that I had no choice but to accept these explanations and win these games, for the sake of my team and my own past, and to save this world--why now is everyone surprised that I would play--!
fairlyheroic: (You've learned to hide so well.)

[personal profile] fairlyheroic 2011-03-07 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
No one's surprised you'd play. At least, I'm not.
unfortunateson: (It's great. It's crack.)
