Hello!

Forget your silly robots, this is the game this forum is really about! If you dare doubt its greatness, I urge you to take a look here, http://s10.zetaboards.com/Drowning_City ... /807371/1/ , and you will know this is the greatest thing ever.

EVER!

I decided to go rogue and start a brand new topic, for a number of reasons.

A) The rules as depicted in the opening post there are not how we played the game recently, and I think the new way is an improvement.
B) The topic suffered from stolen posts syndrome (Nick!), which means people going to the last page will see emptiness. Which is ugly. As fuck.
C) The title was vague (unlike the one of this topic which is fucking brilliant).
D) This game needed a kick in the butt to become active again, and maybe a new topic will do just that!

Now, how are we gonna do this?

I will need an even number of people saying YES I WANNA JOIN THIS.

Out of these people I shall randomly make 2 teams, and I shall randomly put these 2 lists of people in a random order (so fucking random), 1, 2, ..., N. Now, this is where it gets slightly tricky, because in the events that shall occur, every individual will be involved twice. If the groups have an ODD number of people, this will happen thus:

1, 2, ..., N, 1, 2, ..., N

If the groups have an EVEN number of people, this will happen thus:

1, 2, ..., N, 2, 1, ..., N, N-1

Then, in each group...

A) Player 1 shall create an original sentence and send it to Player 2 (through private message, Skype, mail, doesn't matter!)
B) Player 2 shall capture the sentence he has been given into an image of his own making, and send this image to Player 3 (make this image in any way you want, be it Paint, a 3D rendering program, Photoshop, or even good old fashioned pen and paper)
C) Player 3 shall capture the image he has been shown in a sentence of his own making, and send this sentence to Player 4.

AND SO ON. In short, sentence>image>sentence>image... until everyone player has produced one sentence and one image. The orders that I have shown you before, a variant for odd numbered groups and one for even numbered groups, will ensure that everyone will in fact make a sentence and an image. As opposed to two sentences or two images.

THEN, after the final person in a group produced his final product (always an image), he will have no one to send it to. Instead, he posts it, here, and the number 1 of that group will see it, and he will think, "that has nothing to do with my initial sentence!", and hilarity will ensue. At this point, there is a will be a large number of sentences and images spread across a number of people (each product in the possession of 2 people, the sender and the receiver), and together, we shall publicly reconstruct the route from initial sentence to final image, here, in this topic.

WHO IS WITH ME?!

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.
