TURQUOISE

INSTRUCTIONS

Each round you will be given a scenario and a task to accomplish. Assume any items you need to accomplish the task are present in the room. Your goal is to fail to accomplish this task, as elaborately and creatively as possible while still ostensibly trying to accomplish it. Do not ICly discuss and plan what you're going to do in each round. Just jump right in. Ping Raven when you need a new round.

This is a loser game, so the losers win, but there will be prizes for the teams that fail most creatively!

You understand the premise above, but at this point your room is empty. You can do any meet-and-greet or general discussion here before the scenarios begin.

Oh! This is going to be a fun game.

Oh . . .

Hello. Are you prepared to try very hard and then fail?

That sounds like fun.

. . . yeah.

[story of my life]

You are a suburban family attempting to prepare, serve and consume a simple spaghetti dinner.

The following unrelated objects are present as well:
a dish towel
a single tomato
one of those spray-nozzles you stick on a garden hose
a drinking horn
an ash tray
a steak knife
a glue stick
a pushpin
a cork coaster
a racoon

Ah...

[picking up this raccoon because that's wise]

I'm keeping him.

We do not need a raccoon in our spaghetti, anyway.

We could, however, use the glue stick! It would help our noodles stick together.

Sounds good to me. I bet we could work some toppings out of that coaster too.

If we shred the dish cloth, could that work as noodles?

Right! Save the tomato, I have an idea for that...

[oh my god]

What? Got a problem?

No . . . no problem.

Are you sure?

You should contribute as well! The best kind of spaghetti is the one that we all create together.

I wouldn't even know where to start.

Do anything you would like! Everything here could go into food.

. . .

[glues the bowl to the table]

Right! Smoky's already a member of the family.

[wiggles the raccoon at him!]

. . . everyone should call the raccoon "senpai" instead of Thunder and see how long it takes before he flips out.

--That's a great idea!

[nods wisely]

Oh! It probably wouldn't take very long. It may even only take a few minutes.

We can even do it at dinner.

Yep! It would be really fast.

[and also he is currently feeding the tomato to his new friend]

You are on an exciting outdoor adventure with your friends and/or family! The sun will set soon, and you need to pitch a tent and otherwise set up your campsite before it is too dark to see.

The following unrelated objects are present as well:
a stuffed snake
a canvas tote bag
Time Life magazine, August
a steak knife
a wooden spoon
a pair of nail clippers
three gallon-size ziploc bags
two tapered candles
a 15" length of cotton string
a bug zapper

[looping the end of the string around the snake's neck]

[attempting to pitch the tent and fasten it to the ground with the steak knife]

[attempts to help with... the spoon? yes, that could also make a good stake]

[gently tosses the snake towards them and drags it back with the string. oh nooo, snake]

...

[sets the canvas bag up open]

He can camp too.

Is he also a senpai?

Nah! Don't you think a senpai needs a cute kouhai to look cool?

That probably makes sense.

Exactly!

[meanwhile, trying to see if he can't light candles with a bug zapper somehow]

[nudging the fabric of the tent closer to that]

[I'm... getting sparks...

THERE WE GO]

Success! [at candles at least, he hasn't lit anything else yet] Now what?

[while you do that i will try to cut wood with the nail clippers :|a]

You are office workers receiving a shipment of documents in the mail! You need to sign for the packages, open them, and put the contents away in your filing cabinets.

The following unrelated objects are present as well:
Time Life magazine, August
a cork coaster
a pair of aviator sunglasses
a dish towel
a pillow
three gallon-size ziploc bags
a pad of sticky notes
a pair a black lacquered chopsticks
a pair of nail clippers
half a loaf of sourdough bread

[immediately holds the sunglasses out to Kida and knocks over a stack of packages at the same time]

[oops, dropping the pillow on shinji's head in her excitement to get to the packages]

[flopping back into another stack of boxes, raining paper on himself]

Ow . . .

I apologize for my clumsiness!

Here, I will use this to make it better.

[ > Nia: Apply sticky note to Shinji's forehead.]

[flops backwards]

. . . thank you.

You are quite welcome. It will make due when we have no bandages.

[sunglasses -> around his neck]

Why thank you.

[then he starts putting sticky notes on everything]

You did it wrong.

[puts the sunglasses on the back of Kida's neck]

Oh, right! Much better.

Good job.
