Choose your CYOA

[Iron_Yuppie]

I saw this on another forum. We've got creative people, so this cooperative game should be fun.

The way this is done is that someone (in this case, me) starts off a a little situation that has a few choices for actions. The next poster picks an action and writes what happens next.

Example, first post:

_________________________________________________

Jim is playing Werewolf on POG.

A) Read the thread, and make an informed lynch vote
B) Fake seer
C) Turn off the computer and talk to the hottie sitting outside on the park bench

Health: Excellent

INVENTORY
$25
Copy of "Hold 'em Poker for Advanced Players"

__________________________________________________ __
Then another person will post a response to that choice:

C) Turn off the computer and talk to the hottie sitting outside on the park bench
__________________________________________________ ______

Then that person would do the next write-up:

__________________________________________________ ______

Jim goes outside and makes suggestive remarks to hottie. She seems unimpressed with Jim's pasty complexion and Stuey Ungeresque physique. The hottie's dog is making threatening noises in your direction.

A) Impress hottie by explaining the proper way to play Axs UTG
b) "Accidentally" let slip that you are actually a member of the Saudi royal family
c) Run away
d) Kick the dog in the face then run away

Health: Excellent (if pasty)

Inventory
$25
Copy of "Hold 'em Poker for Advanced Players"

__________________________________________________ __
And then the next person will go.

One request: Gentle ribbing is OK, but please no slamming of other POGgers in this game. Slamming celebrities, orphans, deities, and of course OOTers is perfectly fine.

And no one better give me crap about the title of the post.

I WILL START WITH THE NEXT POST

You stumble through a set of double-doors and find yourself in a rather large and crowded casino. To your left you see the entrance to the poker room, where you think you see, among others, Stu Unger, Johnny Moss, and Joseph Stalin playing No-Limit Hold Em. To your right you see the table games pit. At the bar you see a conspicuously hooded figure staring vaguely in your direction.

The air-conditioning does not appear to be working in the casino, as it is quite hot. You look down to your hand and see yourself holding a crumpled $10,000 bill, with what appears to be Oprah's picture on it.

a) Head into the poker room
b) Head to the table games
c) Go to the bar and talk to the hooded stranger

Health: Excellent

Inventory:
$10,000 bill (possibly counterfeit)

"Do I know you from somewhere?" you ask the strange looking man. He glances at you quickly, making eye contact for a brief second. He makes a low guttural sound and quickly looks back at the floor. He searches his pants pocket, pulls out a red chip and tosses it on the bar and darts away.

Do you:

A. Chase after the weirdo
B. Sit down and order a red bull/grey goose
C. Grab the mans $5 chip and book it to the parking lot.
D. Try to look cool and ogle women.

The attractive bartender takes your order as you attempt to throw out the vibe to her. She makes your beverage of choice, and sets it in front of you with a cute wink and says "That will be $6". You smile and blush slightly.

Do you:

A) Start a tab

B) Ask if she can break a $10,000 bill

C) Walk away without paying

D) Drop down the $10,000 bill and tell her to keep the change

Health: Excellent

You display some of your world-class charm by saying "Excuse me while I whip this out"; as you reach for your $10,000 bill from the inside of your jacket. While reaching, the bartender let's out a startled gasp and hurries to the back of the bar.

Normally girls don't run away from you in fear until you have talked to them for at least 30 seconds, so you are a little bit curious as to what made both her and the hooded stranger run off. As you look down, you see that the T-shirt beneath your jacket is absolutely SOAKED in blood.

You still feel fine, strange enough. You grab the chip of the bar as you walk away, you cheap bastard.

a) Seek medical help
b) Head to the clothing shop just off of the casino floor
c) Zip up your jacket, and get to GAMBOOLING.
d) Walk around with your jacket unzipped, and see who else you can freak out.

Health: Excellent?

C'mon people, are you really going to leave our hero here:

- in the middle of the casino floor,
- possibly bleeding to death,
- with $10,005 (possibly counterfeit)
- with totally +EV games like roulette and poker with Johnny Moss just a few steps away
- and a mysterious hooded stranger
- and an attractive bartender who seems to be into us but has a "thing" about copious amounts of blood?

The possibilities are endless!!!!!
