View Full Version : The Lost City of Meiwo [Concluded]
This is the sequel to "The Lost City of Tikkal", the amount of players I hope to acomodate is 15-20, though less than that is also welcome. This game will be a lot more focused on exploring than on killing unlike the predecessor as now after a kill attempt, you have a "cool down" period, where you can't kill. Likewise, players will now be able to gain several secret abilities by exploring certain squares, which the only one I'm going to reveal publicly is gaining the ability to kill the attackers if the attackers attempt is the one which succeeds.
After months digging around Xi'an in China, the expedition composed of several explorers, visitors of the .Org find Meiwo. The vast city, long thought having been razed to the ground, had been underground for millenia and hasn't been seen by human eyes for thousands of years. More interestingly than that, they find that the city is actually gigantic, being several dozen miles long, which makes the explorers think this was to be the capital of Dong Zhuo's dynasty, who was one of the most powerful people in the fall of the Han Dynasty in China, intending to mirror Chang'an or Luoyang, former Han capitals, in their prime. But the explorers aren't here on an archeological expedition. They intend to loot the city for everything it's worth. Following the main road, they reach the main Palace at the heart of the city. In its Inner Quarters they discover a gold and jade statue covered with gems, estimated worth $20 million. They have lost many men on the expedition and every night they spend underground is dangerous. The sensible thing to do would be to leave now with their winnings. But will their greed send them on a different course?
********************
A mini-game with threachery in the mix. The final objective is that everyone must be unanimous in deciding to leave the city.

Here is the map of the City. The main palace is E5 and cannot be explored. Throughout the map treasure is laid out in a battleship-esque manner (in fact exactly like in battleship. Most squares will give a small amount of loot, on rare occasion single squares will give more (though each square is different) and very few ones will render much more, though any of these former ones do not match the main loot complexes, arranged in straight lines of 5,4,3 and 2 squares).
There will also be an undisclosed amount of squares which if explored might give the players which explore them secret abilities among other things. But not all of these squares give boons. Be wary that this city is a mystical and dangerous place, and wandering off into certain places might have dire consequences.
Each day, individual players make one of three choices, privately (pm's sent to me).
1) Explore the city
The player picks a few sets of coordinates and sends them to me. They get any loot from those squares (if more than one player visits it's split between them. If the loot is shared than I will say so, but not who you're sharing with).
2) Kill somebody
Ah, greed. With each person who dies, your share of the money of the Statue will increase. Those who do the killing divide up the individual loot of the deceased as well. Not all attempts succeed however, as the commotion of a kill will put everyone else on alert. Whoever has the most people try and kill them dies (and if there is a tie, they all die). But bare in mind that once you have attempted to kill (Whether it failed or succeeded), you will have to wait three nights before attempting another kill.
3) Leave the city
If everyone decides to leave the city, then the game is over and everyone still living is a survivor. Whoever has the most money is the sole winner and champion of the game however. If future games are held, a champions list will be posted, and the highest scoring champion will be know as grand champion.
Any sole survivors get to describe themselves officially as being the "Greedy conniving seahorses".
Each day will be 24 hours.
You are free to pm each other, form groups to cooperate and share information, secretly share that information with the group you are really working with, post pm evidence that someone you are working with is betraying another group...etc.
No screenshots, no chatlogs, and no revealing anything once dead.
After each day I'll post who (if anyone) died, though I won't reveal who or how many tried to kill them. I'll then send night result pm's and the next day will start. If I get pm's fast enough to do a 12 hour period and if I'm able, I will.
I think it could be interesting, post if you want to try it out. Rule suggestions are welcome as well, as I just thought this up a few days ago. Should be an exercise in trust and betrayal.
If the survivors of the last game do join, they will each recieve a secret ability in advance, as part of their experience in surviving through "The Lost of Tikkal". These are the reigning champions of greed and betrayal:

Well, I've not been able to achieve the minimum of 10 players that I wished. I'll allow the sign ups to remain open until tomorrow when I will start the game. If the minimum hasn't been achieved, as a deterrent against the rapid disapearance of players, every player will have a successful defence chance percentage from the beginning. I'll elaborate on it later if need be.
However, if you suspect that someone might want to play this game, do try and invite them. Bear in mind that most recent Gameroom regulars (I haven't asked Proletariat though) have already been invited by myself.

Day 0
All the explorers were absolutely elated by having found such a valuable Statue. While they spoke about what to do next, while some argued that it would be best to leave the city and report the find and collect the bounty on such a marvelous statue, others dismissed it by saying most of the city was still unexplored and it could render significant wealth for all involved. In the end it was decided that everyone would spend the day still in the city.
With all 12 explorers alive, each member's share of the Statue was valued in $1.667.777. An hefty amount of money indeed, but who knows if the share of each will increase as accidents underground are known to happen!

Day 1
After everyone had slept for a while and a new day dawned outside, the explorers decided each to go off into the city and bring back what loot they could. Several hours later, they heard the screams of several people who found atheotes crushed by a stone pillar which apparently collapsed under him. Only a few items that he had looted remained.
A few minutes later, from the other side of town, screams were also heard, as Reenk Roink had apparently triped in a small hole in a road intersection and fatally banged his head several times against the pavement. A pity indeed, as it appeared that Reenk that been lured by the screams and was heading to see what was happening. The explorers were shocked by what happened, yet they collected both bodies and buried them.
Back at night in the main camp, at dinner time, the remaining explorers noticed that Sasaki wasn't back yet. Some explorers told the story that Dong Zhuo, the leader responsible for the construction of the city, had cursed it as he died, but only in a few places did really the curse manifest itself, and everyone who wandered into those places never managed to leave them. That story was apparently given as the cause for Sasaki's disapearance. The explorers shook their heads the accidents from Day 1 and went to sleep to decide what would be done the next day.
With a new day, everyone was more cheerful than in the past, night as they remembered that now with the apparent death of three explorers, each individual's share had risen from $1,667,777 to $2,000,000. Quite a win for a day's work.

No worries. Do I get a role pm?
An heads-up for all players: I've just updated the rules regarded the "Cool Down Period" after an attempted kill. Previously I didn't specify the period of Cool Down after a kill attempt, but now it has a specific period of time.
But bare in mind that once you have attempted to kill (Whether it failed or succeeded), you will have to wait three nights before attempting another kill.
No worries. Do I get a role pm?
No Role PMs. Yet I shall also make you one:
You are Beefy187
You are an intrepid explorer who is stuck in an underground city along with several other unfortunate people. If you come out, that means you're a very rich man. The catch is that, that task is most difficult. Though you are a senior member now and worthy of the utmost respect, the fact is that nobody cares about that, and chances are that title will have you killed even faster then when you were a member.

Day 2
As soon as the explorers had their morning meals, they set off each in their own direction, hoping nothing would happen to themselves (The same can't be said about others). All was peaceful until several hours later when some explorers found the reknowned Dr. Slashandburn hanged off the top of a tree, with a letter of suicide. Apparently he was claustrophobic and couldn't take being for too long in underground cities. Unfortunate indeed. The loot he carried with him had mysteriously vanished as well.
Still that was the only death, which made the individual shares raise from $2,000,000 to $2,222,222.
The explorers joked that even in his death, Dr. Slashandburn managed to be as profitable as he was in life. After all ate their dinner, each retreated to their own tents to get some well deserved rest after a busy day for some.

The replacement issue has been solved. I am hungry for both food and knowledge, and as such I'm gonna go to the nearest mall and eat some fast-food and stay until late reading books I like. As such, write-ups and results will come only in a handful of hours.
Write-ups and the result will begin being dealt with now.

Day 3
The third day was unarguably a lot more quiet than the previous ones, as this time all of the explorers rose early, ate their breakfast and only returned late without incident. It appeared that the majority was a happy bunch, and now that the killings were over, most of the explorers did really begin thinking that the death of the others were really only unhappy accidents.
When night came, the explorers were startled by someone. Apparently Sasaki had finally reappeared from his exile. Closely inquired by his fellow companions as to what happened, where he was hidden or how he had survived for so long without food, Sasaki replied that he had entered a cave and had fallen off an endless abyss while combatting a Balrog. After Sasaki and the Balrog fell into the abyss in the said cavern, they fought long underground and then climbed the Hidden Dragon Stair to the peak of the Nine Springs where Dong Zhuo's Tower stood. There on a narrow eyrie they fought from Day 1 to Day 2. The Balrog, whose fire had been quenched in a subterranean lake, burst into renewed flame. The sun shone at first, but as the combatants struggled thunder boomed and lightning flashed, vapour and steam rose, and ice fell. From a distance it appeared that a storm was raging over the Nine Springs. At last, "I defeated the Balrog!" cried Sasaki in great excitement. Some of the explorers faces were of true disbelief. Most thought he had inhaled far too many substances before coming underground, while others thought he had took the time to loot around day and night by an unparalelled greed, and it was all the greed and excess work together that made him wild. But Sasaki interrupted them to continue his tale; he threw the Balrog down from the peak, and the mountainside broke where the Balrog landed. Sasaki then died from his wounds and passed into darkness out of thought and time, but was sent back to Meiwo as Ganryu Kojiro to complete his task. When Sasaki awoke in the morning of Day 3, he was lying naked at the bottom of the endless abyss. Dong Zhuo's Tower had crumbled and the entrance to the Hidden Dragon Stair was blocked, and Sasaki was trapped high on a mountaintop until a Chinese Dragon came at mid-day and bore him to the entrance of the cavern.
While many explorers laughed at the story, others faces were more disturbed, as Sasaki's reappearance meant their individual shares had fallen once again. Tratorix also laughed and mocked Sasaki a lot, so much that he decided to emulate the tale of Sasaki falling off the cliff, with what he had around him. Saying he was going to be just like Sasaki, he went running full speed to throw himself into a well which was nearby the camp where the explorers were. The explorers warned Tratorix that the well was obviously dry from so much time of unuse, but apparently Tratorix was by then too far away to have heard them. Some explorers began going after him, but others who were unhappy that Sasaki's arrival meant the shares had fallen, managed to convince the group that Tratorix was only joking and wouldn't really throw himself off the well. Either way upon arrival, Tratorix promptly tossed him into the well and was still laughing when he saw that the well wasn't bottomless, but unfortunately for him was also waterless. The result was that the shares remained unchanged despite Sasaki's return. And a great many were happy again. To them, it didn't really matter whether it was Sasaki or Tratorix who were dead. At least now, they were sure that Tratorix was really dead.
Despite Sasaki's strange reappearance and Tratorix's strange death, the mood was clearly much higher among the explorers, but something kept the explorers from staying awake until late. Phreaps a number of them discovered vast riches within the city? Maybe they still hadn't found the riches the sought for in city? Or was it Sasaki's epic tale of struggle which disturbed them? Who knows if it was Tratorix's death that had really unsettled them?
After eating dinner, and having a friendly chat, the worn-out explorers went to bed, awaiting another day of toil and loot.

Well, you could try using your kill ability, but will you be able to bring it to a tie, or above the number required?

As White_Eyes:D put it, I am not kidding.
Though I be honest, the only reason I would kill you is because I don't trust you. Last game, I was the innocent searcher, I suggested people work together to get lots of money.
Want to know what happened?
I was killed.
Yup, that was the case. I suggest systematic serious stab at the game, even to discover the lost Amazon babe temple, and I got killed.
If you look carefully, look at who got killed.
If you didn't know, Slashandburn and John were working together again this game, they even tried to invite me and White_Eyes:D, they confessed to killing Atheotes, and they were going to kill White_Eyes as well. So what did I do? I killed Slashandburn and was going to take out John.

Wait a minute. If beskar was part of the Slash and Burn hit then how is he going to kill us? he can not kill till next phase..... :inquisitive:
I have no clue.....I know I plotted with a few people to kill slashandburn.....in truth...I can't kill anyone...:sweatdrop:
one vote was all that was needed though....:clown:
I think Beskar killed someone on day one?:book:

I told White_Eyes:D about Slashandburn, I told Atheotes too.
Slashandburn and John tried to recruit me, Sasaki Kojiro and White_Eyes:D.
So on the event of my death, and deaths continue... remember rule #1.

You will be surprised.
:bounce:
As White_Eyes:D put it, I am not kidding.
Though I be honest, the only reason I would kill you is because I don't trust you. Last game, I was the innocent searcher, I suggested people work together to get lots of money.
Want to know what happened?
I was killed.
Yup, that was the case. I suggest systematic serious stab at the game, even to discover the lost Amazon babe temple, and I got killed.
If you look carefully, look at who got killed.
If you didn't know, Slashandburn and John were working together again this game, they even tried to invite me and White_Eyes:D, they confessed to killing Atheotes, and they were going to kill White_Eyes as well. So what did I do? I killed Slashandburn and was going to take out John.
I am going to kill you all, all you murderers!
Me too! I got well over 100k, but I got killed.

If Beskar kills you Beefy....I will personally make it my mission to make him ground beef:whip:
5 hours to go. Not many players left sending orders. Providing those remaining players can send their orders before deadline, we might have ourselves a shorter turn, and moving the game faster.
Don't worry Jolt, I am going to kill them, so we don't have to wait for their inactive behinds.
Got all orders. Will allow 5 minutes from now for last minute changes should anyone want that.
Day 4 over. Results and Write-up to be delivered.

Day 3
Once again, the explorers rose up early, ate their breakfast and after grabbing some thing each left in their own way. One of the explorers had made some threatening remarks in the morning to the rest of the group, which unsettled some of them. However soon enough after each left, Beskar suspected he was being followed so he stepped up the pace and after a while entered an imposing building with thick walls. He was correct in his presumption that he was being followed, as Double A and Centurion1 were both on his tail. As soon as Beskar entered the building, the pair knew their chance had come to strike at the foul-mouthed man so both entered. Three steps into the buildings they stepped upon some caltrops that were beneath a small silk carpet, which made them scream in agony and only confirmed Beskar that he was followed as he thought. Both attackers pulled out the caltrops and went in with great caution as they were sure their victim was now aware of their presence.
Unfortunately for them, as they arrived in a great hall, where a myriad weapons were stockpiled, Beskar called them from a second floor. "So you wished to kill me did you? This is really the worst place you attempt to do that." As he finished speaking, he pulled some sort of lever which made Crossbows's on both sides of the walls around Double A and Centurion1 fire several bolts immediately. Double A and Centurion1 then knew they were in a trap. Both men were hit by several bolts and presently duck to escape further punishment. But by then they were bleeding heavily from everywhere and screaming in agony. Still both found the strength to crawl forward and rose up once again to climb the stairs to where Beskar was. Sadly for the pair, who were armed with only knives and clubs, Beskar was much more well prepared for the confrontation. As the aggressors painly climbed the stairs, Beskar drew a well preserved "Liu Zing" and swirling it in the air at the top of the stairs he tossed it against Double A, hitting him on his arm and throwing him back down the stairs. Centurion1 however, climbed only with greater resolve and once he was within range, he tried to thrust his knife into Beskar's abdomen.
Beskar only smirked and drawing a "Jian" sword from his hilt, he parried the blow and quickly chopped off Centurion's hand. Centurion screamed heavily, but that would be his last noise, as Beskar pulled another sword known as the "Dao", which is similar to a Falcata and beheaded Centurion. Double A, with one less working arm and seeing his colleague being killed with great ease, thought it wise to try to escape. Beskar could only smirk, and as Double A began heading for the entrance, Beskar grabbed a handy Chu Ko Nu (Automatic Crossbow) he had lying near him and discharged several bolts at the fleeing target. Fleeing is used only as an expression, as Double A was barely moving, such was the state he was in. Most bolts hit Double A in the head and back, killing him easily. However swift the defence was, the armory was a mess and Beskar returned back to camp.
In due time, all other explorers returned where they heard Beskar he killed Centurion1 and Double A in self-defence. While the rest of the explorers doubt such a claim, they knew it was so because they saw Centurion1 and Double A following Beskar, but then again all the explorers knew that Beskar had threatened them all. Still Beskar claimed that without those two phreaps the deaths would stop.
With two less explorers, the remaining 7 explorers individual share rose from $2,222,222 to $2,827,142.
They went to bed after dinner, awaiting a new day of work.
Deadline for Day 5 is 8 PM GMT/3 PM EST

hoping for a bigger group to attack you weren't you? :laugh4:
Ahhhh, so that was your plan
Image if you all sent in orders to kill me. I would have become the sole survivor, and I would be swirling around my "Lui Zing" in glee.
However, in a serious note, if you weren't prepared to kill me when you could have done easily in a group, you must be some what trustworthy not to kill. However, if you do intend to kill me, you will receive the same fate as those above.

Other then that, I've been a nice good boy, just looking for treasure.

The ironic thing is that was my first kill attempt.
Some info on the weapons used:
The Liu Xing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteor_hammer) is known in English as the "Meteor-Hammer" which is basically a rope with a mace's head on one end.
The Jian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jian) can be said to be a regular sword.
The Dao (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dao_%28sword%29) is a saber.
The Chuko Nu/Zhuge Nu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_crossbow) was a repeating crossbow which had gigantic effects in a pitched battle.
52 minutes left to deadline.
Day 5 is over. This one will take some time as my game spreadsheet somehow corrupted itself. Luckily I have the spreadsheet of the same game I'm doing elsewhere, so all I'll need is to track back each order and remake the total net worth of each. Unfortunately, tomorrow is the day I probably move to the college dorm, which means I'll be very busy and can't handle keeping up with the game. Thus, quite possibly write-up & results coming in two days. Some people who couldn't send their orders in time do get leeway and can send their orders for day 5.
Well, unfortunately, the game will take an even longer while than I originally anticipated to restart. As of now, I'm bogged down with a myriad of college essays as well as trying to get a job as my situation here where I study (Far from home) is quite precarious.
That, coupled with the fact that not only I forgot the pen which carries all the information about the game at home, AND my college dorm is currently out of net forces me to put off this game a few more days.
