Resident Evil: Discussion Thread [Concluded]

[atheotes]

I certainly think so. :)

How many vitality points did we have left among the three of us by the time we left? Five?

I am just glad i could contribute a point to that total

[Csargo]

Well done to the Escapee`s, though I think Atheotes should hang his head in shame, so-called Town Defender escaping whilst half the population still require defending.

As to the suggested rule changes, I Vote : NO. I like the game the way its working, just being able to jump around instantly to the main locations seems a little lame to me, you may end up with people just hopping around behind each other, and it completely negates the advantage people with high movement stats have.

I vote no as well.

[Askthepizzaguy]

It appears as though we won't get the votes, which is fine.

I am just worried that some of you guys will be all... "why isn't the game ending" two months from now.

[johnhughthom]

I votes yes.

[Frozen In Ice]

I don't think you'll have to worry too much about that. I basically agree with Wishazu that the rules work fine now and there's no need to fix something that isn't broken.

[atheotes]

I can understand why people dont want to change rules.
@ ATPG - i thought you had biological clock within every character that to prevent the dragging (they need to get out in x phases...no? am i dreaming stuff?
you more concerned with the omega vs zombie type end game perhaps.

Because some people still want to play?

Honestly, though, if there are only like 3 guys left and they all hate each other you could just make them have a Battle Royale. And by the time there are very few people left you'll have a lot more time freed up from writing character cards and such.

[Askthepizzaguy]

It may simply be my vantage point as the game host which suggests that the game wouldn't be impacted much if it were sped up a bit, and my perfect knowledge of the current setup of the game which allows me to sense that the game might begin to drag in the next few phases.

However, I agree that there isn't enough demand for the game to be changed to warrant such a move. And it is everyone's game, not just mine, so I am perfectly happy leaving it the way it is.

[Splitpersonality]

I'll vote yes for changes.

[Stildawn]

how much longer we got?

[Askthepizzaguy]

how much longer we got?

Ideally you should know what you're doing by now, and should send in orders. You have until 11:59PM on the 21st of March, which is less than 33 hours from now, by my estimate.

[Wishazu]

I managed to get my orders in earlier than the deadline this time, woot!

[Askthepizzaguy]

If your orders have not been sent in yet, they are late and you cannot use stealth mode.

I urge all zombies to review the zombie quicktopic and make sure all the zombies have some kind of default order if they didn't send in their moves.

I'll get as much done on this as I can while people's orders are missing. As usual I will contact the late people and remind them.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Missing orders for most of the Zombie horde (not good...)

Missing orders for Centurion1. Everyone else spawns as a zombie this phase, who was dead last phase.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Here's what I've done for this phase so far:

• I have accepted all your orders and added them to my files.
• From your orders, I have moved everyone that I can move, and made a map for phase 13.
• I have randomized your item and weapon drops.
• I have randomized an event.
• I've reminded the zombie horde to send in orders and I now have default orders for the horde. Thanks, Diamondeye.
• Those who didn't send in orders but have allies will move with their allies, in default mode (defense mode).

Still to come:

• I need to set up and roll the battles. One of them will be rather large, but still easy to roll. The other will be a difficult battle to roll.
• I will send out character cards after that. Should be easy to send out character cards from now on, due to the dwindling numbers of living players.

Estimated time to completion:

I will try to roll the battles tonight, but I am being held up. Give me between one and two days to complete this. I'm aiming for the 24th, but if I spill into the 25th, it happens.



EDIT: Nevermind, I now have all orders except for those moving with their allies. Centurion1, that means you....



EDIT EDIT: (At 9:56 PM, I can say that there have already been 17 deaths this round. And I haven't even done the Tyrant battle yet....)

[Askthepizzaguy]

Okay! Lots of death this round.

Battles are all rolled. Major events happening everywhere.

I want to get you your results ASAP, so I am just going to give you QUICK RESULTS, then I will do the public writeup, then I will do Character cards as fast as I can. Ok?

I won't begin the next round officially until everyone who needs a character card has one, but you will know what happened and you'll be able to begin next-round discussions. I am aiming for being done with everything but the CC's tonight.

[atheotes]

hmm...there were 25 people listed as alive... i hope when you meant 17 deaths and more, you included a lot zombie deaths

[Askthepizzaguy]

I guess you'll just have to feel the suspense...

[Captain Blackadder]

Oh dear 17 people dead this game really has hit a sudden curve in the numbers of deaths.

[Double A]

That just means MOAR ZOMBIEZ TO BURN!

[Askthepizzaguy]

Ok, at 8pm today I have sent out "quick" results to everyone. That only took me a couple of hours.

Now, I will do the public writeup and then I will send out character cards to people. This phase will be a disaster for me, character-card-wise. A lot of people are getting updates to their inventory, alignment, or item trades and such.

You're killing me, you're killing me. :sad face:

[Double A]

You could always reintroduce El Gigante. That would kill them faster than them kill you.

[Amsel]

Dead zombies so far: (44)

Backwards Logic (1 time)
Crazed Rabbit (1 time)
Chaotix (1 time)
Sigurd (1 time)
Cultured Drizzt Fan (1 time)
CCRunner (17 times)
22 NPC zombies

ohpleaseohpleaseohplease

[naut]

Must include Zombies. But, that's some good carnage. Looking forward to it.

[FactionHeir]

A lot of people are getting updates to their inventory, alignment, or item trades and such.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Nothing like a little paranoia to throw a monkey wrench in people's plans....


Give me an hour or so to do the writeup. Check back tonight, it will be written and posted.

[Double A]

Pizza, are there ninja zombies yet?

[Frozen In Ice]

Pizza, are there ninja zombies yet?

Look, this a serious game, please don't make such silly statements. We all know that pirate zombies would be much cooler.

[Double A]

I haven't found any cutlasses or blunderbusses (or Somalians) yet, but there are katanas and wakizashis. I'm gonna guess that it's a lot more likely for there to be ninja zombies than pirate zombies.
