(Thanks to Seon for the concept, the rules, and his blessing for me to run this installment of the game. You can play Roll to Dodge on CFC in one of these two (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=377639) threads (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=348536).)
The rules are simple:
1. Post an action.
2. I will roll one of my trusty six sided dice and tell you the outcome of your action.

If, by some odd twist of fate, something is flying towards you, you get a free roll to dodge it. If you die, you lose the game. You win if everybody else is dead.

Here is how the die rolls work out:
1- Epic failure. You actually take the exact opposite action.
2- Failure.
3- Marginal success.
4- Success.
5- Perfect success.
6- Overshot.

You can virtually do anything, but be careful since you have a 50% chance of screwing it up. If you post multiple actions at once, only the first action will be taken. This will disregard all other actions and intent. Twisted Evil

Also, if you attempt to take an action without an intermediate action (example, you try to wear a shirt you are not carrying) the action auto-fails. You can't take the same action twice in a row, and only the first action you submit before I post the results of every bodies actions will be resolved.
ANYTHING GOES, so be creative!
Example:
You all are trapped inside a jail cell. What do you do
Player 1: I take out my laser cutter and cut through the bars
Me: Automatic 2: You rummage around in your pockets for the nonexistent laser cutter. You trip and fall on someone's foot.
Roll to dodge for Player two: 3
You manage to pull out most of your leg, but your toes got crushed.

Player Two: UGH! I kick Player 1 in the face.
Me: 6: You jump up and seem to levitate over the Player 1. You execute a perfect flip, your toes just brushing the roof, and snap one leg forward in time to connect with Player1's face. The force of your kick makes the room explode. People go flying out the cell. Roll to Dodge[5]. Everyone miraculously missed the glass of water.

Easy? Now go and play.
Starting situation: You all start in a dark, cramped box. You can't see anything, but you feel uncomfortably dizzy.

Also the threads over at CFC are hilarious.

How long is this planned to take or is it open end until everyone but one is still alive? And is it possible to join at any time?

It goes until only one player is left, and yes, you can join any time.
Now, remember players, you must post your actions if you want to play.

But doesn't that give an unfair advantage to those that join later. Or are you going to balance that? (I hope I don't sound to whiny :sweatdrop: )
BTW: I was wondering why you use a 6-sided dice and not a 20-sided like they do at CFC?

Well, it kind of does, which is why on CFC they give you extra HP for joining earlier. Since everyone has 100 HP, people who join in the first two rounds get 150 instead of 100.
And, about the die, the first four Roll to Dodges were with 6-sided dice. I started with that just so you can be introduced to the setup. If this goes well, the next will probably use a twenty-sided die.
Update commencing!

I search for a lightswitch...
(3): You find one, and you turn on the light. You find yourself in what appears to be a giant cardboard box.

I look for pills to get rid of the dizziness.
(4): You find pills and take them, giving you +1 to your next roll.

Using a Swiss Army Knife, Duct-tape and the other items around me, I construct an item which would save me in a life or death situation.
(3): You manage to construct a machine which allows you to re-do any previous roll. Unfortunately, it needs batteries as well.

My action:
I'm going to tickle Beskar until he let's go of his device and then steal it from him. :7ninja:
(4): Beskar squeals and backs away, while you steal the device. With your mad tickling skills, you knock 2 HP out of him.

I pack myself a lunch consisting of refried cow leather, consolidated bacon grease with extra rock salt, extra-crunchy birch bark, a pound of buckshot, twelve cuban cigars, and a Forty ounce of malt liquor.
(5): The lunch is now in your inventory! Eating it will restore 20 HP, and you may eat it as a free action. (However, you may not exceed your maximum HP value, which is currently 150. So, if you eat it with less than 20 HP lost, you are restored just to 150.)

I develop über 1337 skillz at roll to dodge.
(2): You fail. Now, the next time you roll a six, the die will re-roll until you get a five or lower.

ROLL TO DODGE! (3): You barely avoid his shot.


Anyway, I call dips on anything we find outside the box.
(6): The other players acknowledge your dibs so severely, that they can't collect any more items for three turns.

I transform into a dinosaur of some kind.

(6): He pockets it, and it explodes for -30HP.

I use my manly-vision to blast the guard into the water.
(2): You stare intently at him, but nothing happens. He decides to fire at you again.
ROLL TO DODGE! (4): The guard misses.

I locate the nearest weapons crate and take out everything I can carry, including a pin for my newly acquired grenade.
(1): You find a crate full of bombs counting down from five... four...
ROLL TO DODGE! (1): You can't get out of the way, and your arm is blown off, knocking away 75 HP, and leaving you bleeding (-10 HP per turn) until healed.

I attempt to ride the dinosaur.
(1): You hop on the dinosaur's back, and it bucks you off for -50 HP.

Right, an action:

I use my incredible mafia argument skills to direct Joooray and Chaotix into attacking each other instead of me. They find me very not suspicious now, and find each other incredibly scummy, and wish to kill each other.
(6): You succeed! All of Joooray and Choatix's action will now automatically be vetoed unless they involve attacking one another. They can't stop until one of them is dead.

I´ll throw Joorays dibs Machete to him, blade first! After all it´s his...
(6): Joooray gets another -25 HP, leaving him with only 20 HP left.

Engraged with Alan for his lacklustre service, I convert my engine to run on anger and other such negative emotions.
I look around to find a copy of every red-blooded Monster Truck's favourite x-rated comic book - The Erotic Adventures of Suzi BigWheels. Even a momentary glimpse of the carnal depravity depicted on its cover will be enough to get my motor running.
I use the giant leeches to create a living suit of armour for myself, which can not only protect me against attack, but also allows me to leech other people's health if they dare come close to me.
