Theme Idea?
 
Anyone interested in a game with the Apprentice theme? "You're Fired" suddenly is going through my mind a lot.

See my initial reply to your last thread. I do not blame you, I am sure you did not realize how cruel and heartless your remark was.

if you are going to be hurt by jokes like that, i doubt you should be posting your personal life issues on the internets to strangers. trust me, i was joking, but youll certainly ruin across people who wont be joking and will say much worse.

i think we should have a scotthoward themed game, where everyone is a gimmick account of SH and need to adapt to various harshness levels of SH. and fight nazis. and vampires. in space. with umbrellas.

Look, now a days if you insult anyone or call them a _______ you can just go into rehab.

BTW. I was thinking about a Prisoners type game, only instead of two threads, do one thread, only half of the people are "east coast" and post between 10am-2pm and the other are west coast and post from 12pm-4pm.
total gimmick - but they could be your different teams, so you have an Excel Corporation and an Atlas Corporation each competing to get rid of board members or what not, and first team to do so wins - or you could put in other objectives, such as the side that does X the best on a day gets a 50% chance of no lynch.

I like it. Put a wolf or 2 on each team and we have something!

Re: Theme Idea?
 
oh, and not sure if that was clear, I was using two different time zones. Eastern and Pacific.

Ok, how about this. We can be co-mods, you get to play in both time slots, and don't know the roles, and are unlycnable. Sort of like a Donald Trump like character. You are in the game, and run the game, and someone else, like me mods it.

The unlyncable thing would be pretty important for you.

Another theme idea: Since we seem to be running through the books of my childhood, having seen CYOA and Encyclopedia Brown, we may as well complete the trifecta with Charlie Bucket vs the Vermicious Knids.

I'm debating running an Average Speed game this summer with a pro wrestling theme. Either Raw vs. Smackdown, or maybe Raw vs. Nitro going back a few years.

NWO VS NWO WOLFPACK...TOO SWEET

antidan444 05-05-2007 09:51 PM

Re: Theme Idea?
 
By the time NWO Wolfpak split off from the main group, that angle had so run its course.

Actually I could do the Four Horsemen against everyone else. That'd be pretty cool.

I got a good one

Mish-Mash VIII: Luckysville

Imagine a city in which all its citizens, good and evil alike, all share a common link: an "extreme creative" quality to them which some could label as genius, and the majority would label as "insaneiac." However, Luckysville now features a dilemna: an extremist extreme group known as the "FPS Squad" now seeks to topple Luckysville. In addition, the formerly Luckysville-aligned pumpkin, the mascot of Luckysville, appears to have broken off ties.

Welcome to:
Mish Mash 8: Luckysville.


coming soon?

One Luckay is enough for me, mmmkay?

(No offense, you're one of my favorite players to watch in long games ... but a game full of luckays ... my brain couldn't take that.)

2) Dr Who
3) South Park
4) Family Guy
5) Ultima- The computer game series
6) The Sopranos (wait, we did that one)
7) The Apprentice (I'm Fired!)
8) Animal House
9) A night at the museum (great movie if you have not seen it)
10)Monsters Inc (I have a 4 year old LOL)

Ultima???? How OLD are you????? Let me guess, played Ultima I while learning to walk??? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

How about a Half-Life themed game??? Make Gordon Freeman and friends the "Good Wolves" trying to save humanity from the large corporation/Combine (The village)....

I am old. 44 actually. I remember the very first Ultima game, before Ultima I even. It was called Akalbeth.

Hehe.. I remember Aklabeth. One time, I started the game, got "Kill the Balrog", Went to the maze and killed it, credits rolled. Total time from start to finsh: 5 mins.. LOLOL

If you were an Ultima fan, I'm assuming you also played Might and Magic and the Wizardy's....

We could have a Baddies from Ultima vs M&M vs Wizardry MishMash... LOL

BTW, I'm right with you... 42 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I went to college with brother of one of the authors of Wizardry (Werdna). I got one of the first copies out for my Apple II. I have played them all.

ultima v remains the highlight of my computing experience. I also did vi, but my (parent's) then PC was not up to the memory requirements of vii.

I've been toying with getting vii+ to work on my PC, but am wary of the fact it might mean divorce + career suicide.

the only way i finished v was by being led, slowly by the nose.

Ultima 7 and 7.5 are in the top 5 of my all time favorite RPG's... Good luck getting them to run on any hardware running win95 or later lol... However, google is your friend on instructions how to get them to run them using free virtual machine emulation software.
