Dr. Mr H. Andwhy:

Prepare to be destroyed.

...That is all.

Sincerely,

Wik (A.K.A. Your Worst Nightmare)



(let the trash talking begin!)

Hey! I'm 0 and 3 in these competitions, so take that!

Uhh, wait. Trash talking?

Expect the unexpected.

 

[Iron Sky]

Garbage. Refuse. Litter. Waste. Flotsam. Filth. Compost. Junk. Jetsam. Debris. Wreckage.

Beat that.

 

[CleverNickName]

You forgot detritus, rubbish, and rubble.

Bilge, midden, slag, spoil and discharge!

(Yeah, I'm starting to stretch here! Being the first one up is a bit on the daunting side, but I suppose I can't get any worse than my current 100% losing record...)

Actually, looking at the scheduled time for my round, that's going to be really difficult. Any chance I could swap out (any non-Tuesday day is ok), or even better, delay the start of the round by 6 or 8 hours? In my timezone, 12pm PST is 5am Wednesday morning, and Wednesday night is a bit of a write-off for me since I'm GMing my regular game. A few hours later means I can at least have a go at things on Thursday morning.

Round 1, Match 3
Saturday, June 5
MortalPlague vs. ender wiggin
Judge: Pbartender

Exciting! Thanks for putting me on the list.

On that note, is it possible to switch me to a different day? The only day I work this week is Saturday. If not, I can swing it. I'll just have my mind elsewhere while at work.

 

[CleverNickName]

Hrmm....I'll see what I can do. MortalPlague/ender wiggin and Sanzuo/humble minion: would it be alright to switch you two around? Please let me know as soon as possible; the first match starts in less than six hours!

 

[humble minion]

Cheers for that. If you can't organise a change, I'm ok with keeping the original schedule. I'll still be able to produce *something*, it'll just probably be rather poor and rather rushed.

Thanks for understanding. If there were only one person in each match, it would be easy to swap them around. But each schedule change impacts four different people, so it can get complicated.

As for the "rather poor and rather rushed" product, remember: the Great Iron DMs of Old only had one hour to produce an adventure. Just one hour! So working against such a tight deadline, scrambling to condense the ingredients and bind them together in a story...it's probably closer to the heart and soul of the Iron DM Competition.
