dramatispersonae

[ When you step into the room, you'll find it dimly lit once more, with a spotlight over a simple wooden table with chairs around it. On the table are three cards, one with a single word on it, one with a short phrase, and one with the rules. You can also hear Peter's voice, though you can't see him. ]

You can't just be strong and brave to be a good adventurer, you know. You must also be very clever. I'm so very clever that I can get other people to say exactly what I want them to say all the time. But I must know if any of you are as clever as I am. To make it much easier for you, I will give you a word and a phrase that you must get other people to say to you. Every person you trick will get you points and you'll get more points for phrases!

… Oh, and no cheating! If another team figures out your word or phrase and tells it to me, they'll steal one of your end points! Oh, oh, and let's make a bet if you think you are the most clever! If you tell me the name of one specific person you can trick into saying your word or phrase, then I'll give you double the points for it! But if you fail, you'll lose points. Won't that be most interesting?

Game Start

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

1) Your goal is to trick a person/multiple persons on another team into saying your word/phrase to you.
2) You cannot say your word or exact phrase to another team, but you can try to prompt another team indirectly into saying your phrase.
3) Your character cannot remain silent during the game. If they try not to say anything, they'll feel compelled to respond instead.
4) If your team figures out another team's word and/or phrase, they can submit it under "TURN IN" to steal up to two points from that team! (One for the word, one for the phrase)
5) You can also make a bet with Peter Pan. Under "THE BET," you can submit the name of a specific person (1 per teammate ie 3 teammates, 3 targets) you are confident in being able to trick into saying your word and/or phrase. If you succeed, you'll earn double points. If you fail, you'll lose points equal to the original value of the points. A team cannot all pick the same target.
6) Once you've succeeded in tricking someone into saying your word/phrase, submit the thread to "TURN IN"

Card 1: "sun"
Card 2: "calm down"

More tricks, huh...

Doesn't sound too bad, though.

No. "Sun" should be easy, especially.

For the other one, maybe someone could act all upset? I don't know. Probably someone who's a better actor than me.

I suck at acting. I can get mad, though.

That could work.

About anything in particular?

So it would seem.

Can you act?

Not in a way that would be useful for this.

Yeah... I can't really see someone needing to say "calm down" to you.

[exactly the problem, yes]

Yes, I'm better at acting calm than upset.

Okay, so I'm guessing we probably shouldn't bet. Unless you think we should.

Though Lloyd did just say he could maybe get a guy to say 'sun,' so I don't know.

Edited 2012-05-19 23:24 (UTC)

I wouldn't place any bets on "calm down" but if one of you think you could work with "sun," I don't have a problem with wagering.

Yeeaaah. I think I can try for 'sun' with Ven.

[nods]

All right.

Name your target here. You must pick a target before beginning play!

Betting I can get Ven to say 'sun.'

Betting I can get Shiny to say "sun."

Bet won with Shiny here!

And I think one of Coral's words might be "ocean." Kit keeps going on and on about the water.

[Ven sure did say sun. Bet won.]
