Game of Death continuation thread 1

I'm working on a film but I have internet access while working and I can take a break every once in a while, especially when I've got something rendering. However I suspect I won't be needed anyway.

Also, the gamers is a neat little movie and worth spending some $$ (or convincing a friend to buy it)

On a completely unrelated note, while Number 47 maps are the best thing since 3.0 Haste, Harm and Heal, do you think you could put in a link to the top of round 2?

It's just more convienient than scrolling through 23 maps.
I ended up just saving the Round 2 map onto my HD.
It's quicker than going thru the navigation, even though I like seeing the round develop when surfing thru the maps.
 


So we know you've done reaper's turn and Number47 and at least one other person's turn, so how close are we getting to some action? :)

Or at least some more tidbits on how things are advancing so we can get cracking on our personal maps or seeing Number47's maps start to get made? :) What's happening?

Sorry for the no updates. I'm down to Init 5-3. If you take a look at Init 3, you will understand ;). I'm having to double check conditions, etc., and make sure that I don't have all the corrections on charges, etc., that I had in the 1st round.

I will say that this round has been easier, if more time consuming, than the first round. However, I don't think I'll be able to hold to my 72 hour original projection until we get a lot more kills... Also, in the course of some people scrambling to get actions in by Friday, I'm reasonably convinced that 24 hours simply isn't enough time for y'all either.

I wanted to run a much faster game (24 hours for y'all, 24-72 hours for me) to get in 2-3 rounds a week, but I understand now that this was a pipe dream. At least until I can automate things better ;).

Anyway, I have about two hours tonight, and that should be sufficient to get everything done. However, that leaves the issue of y'all having time to reply... not to mention 4th of July weekend. (yes, some of you have no lives... can I envy you?).

So what I'll do is post the completed results tonight, OR post everything down to Init 5 tonight and the rest tomorrow.

Then, I'll give y'all a week (through next Wednesday) to get results back to me. If I get moves before then, of course, I'll crank out results earlier.

I think I can get us down to 1 turn per week (maybe stick to Wednesday results and Friday night move deadlines?) after the 4th of July weekend, but at least right now, I don't think it will go any faster.
 



That's good. 24 hours for us and 72 for you were a little unrealistic anyway with this many players, but at least your trying and sticking fairly close to the schedule.

As long as you can get in more than a turna month I'll be happy, and of course as there's more attrition, especially in my init 3 meatshield, things should move a little faster.
 

Posted. I decided to go ahead and finish Init 3 (making sure everyone I thought was dead was dead, etc.) since I seem to be insomniacing again anyway.

The final count of the dead? Eight...

Marius the Weathered
Emeldra the Mauve
Mr Gruffles (turned to stone)
Polar Bear 1 (turned to stone)
Polar Bears 5, 7 and 8
Thoramus the Puce

I'll calculate points, etc., later. Right now, I'm hoping a hammer will help me sleep.

Also, I expect that there will be quite a few corrections pouring in despite my best efforts, so I'll wait for that ;).

Also, a quick note: I list the damage done, not the damage taken. Folks with DR take less than what I post ;). Just so's ya know.
