OOC: Ok, this RP is a game show. The rules are as follows: I will post a question, and the contestants have 5 minutes to read and find the answer to said question and post it. If you post a correct answer, you get to give one of the other contestants a point. When any contestant has 15 points, I will provide three options to the last person to give that contestant a point. The options vary from time to time, but they are all ways to kill the other contestant. Once chosen, the option will be enacted upon the looser and he will be removed from the show. Now, if you get a question wrong or don’t post within the time limit, you automatically give a point to yourself. Read the questions carefully, because you only have one shot to answer each. If, by some chance, your contestant is the last alive, he (and by extension, you, the country) will be given the $10 million prize! In addition to that, they will become eligible for the bonus round, in which difficult questions are asked of the remaining contestant, and he must answer in only three minutes. If they get even one question wrong, they are killed in a manner of my choosing. However, if they answer all 10 bonus questions correctly, they win $1 billion! There are only going to be five contestants on this show, and two places are already reserved for Mini Miehm and Khiraebana, so hurry and sign up!

Contestants:

Michael Fonda representing Willink
Frohos de Locos representing Piglatnia
Spiffy Mcspifface representing Jenrak
Fen'Ris Sco'Lar representing The Fallen Races
Timothy Smith representing DMG

So five minutes RL?

I am in - Timothy Smith will participate

I am In !

Im up for a round of this insanity.

This looks...interesting...

I'm in!

Yes, five minute rounds. Sorry for the lag, I was on another site. So, Theao, since you posted first, do you want in or not? Otherwise ill sign The Fallen Races. Oh, and i forgot to mention that this RP should be started tomorrow and finish the same day.

Damn, too late. Oh well. I guess I'll just have to wait to get killed until next episode ;)

Not nescessarily. If Mini miehm or Khiraebana fails to notify me of their participation before the RP starts, then ill fill in their spots from the list.

I'll pass, don't think I could keep up with the sched

Ok, as it stands Willink, DMG, The Fallen Races, Mini Miehm, and Khiraebana are the nations involved. If you are still interested, please post the name of the contestant you will be fielding.

I edited post with contestants name

But what if the ppl are on a different times, i would do it now, while ppl are on, or find a sutible time today or tomorrow.

I cant do it now, becuase I have to leave for an hour in about 20 minutes. Do you guys have MSn messenger? We could work this out on there faster. However, if you dont, we could still arange a time on here.

Na, i broke all my IM's, we could just arrange one here.

We could, we could. I am on the west coast of the USA, so my time is a bit different than others. I believe I am 4 hours behind the state of Maine, and 3 hours behind the rest fo the east coast. Id have to check a time zone map to find out.

Hey guys, I have to go. Be back in about an hour. While I'm gone please post your contestant and settle on a time. Ill check it all out when I return. Please note that today is a bad day for it (ive got a lot to do).

My contestant:

Michael Fonda

Contestant:
Fen'Ris Sco'Lar.

Ok, I got your two guys signed up. Now we have to get a time frame set up. Ill try and get ahold of Mini Miehm and khiraebana now.

8-9PM Eastern Time works for me (that's 5-6PM Pacific, 1-2 AM GMT)

I can do that. Not today, but I can do it tomorrow. Let's see the other enterees opinions before making it final, though.

Ok, so is that time good for everyone? By the way, if Khiraebana or Mini Miehm dont show up, their spots will become open.

yeah, taht would work.

Righto, I'm in. My countries representitive shall be Lenard Hooligan.

I think it will work for me, as long as I dont forget :headbang:

Some time after 5 o'clock would be good for me.

Alright, cool. Ill edit the top post with your contestants as soon as I get this post done. Im gonna be on here for an hour, then check back on this thread every few minutes until 5. I just hope the RP doesnt go longer than that ;)

EDIT: MM, are you sure you want to submit a king as your contestant? He is liable to be killed, you know...

Hey, would you guys mind giving me a brief physical description of your contestant? Its not nescessary. but it would help.

5'11"
170 lbs
Lean build
Glasses
messy yet controlled hair (brown)

Can I submit Spiffy Mcspifface?

He's a short, 3 feet 5 inches bankrupt accountant who can't shut up. He likes anchovies on his pizza, and wears Emo glasses.

Sorry Jenrak, I cant do it now. The Rp starts in... 3 minutes, and I still have some questions to write up. If there is enoygh material left over for another round, ill reserve a place for you.

Guys, hello, its 5:00. Time to start and all.

i am on

Well, one out of five isnt... good, but at least its not 0. We need at least three contestants, however.

Ok... what went wrong? Where is everyone? Did you guys get the times mixed up? Is my clock wrong?

probably just forgot

You know what's kind of ironic? Your the only one to say you might forget about it, and your the only one who didnt, lol.

*Waves hand franticly !*

Im on im on, i wasnt home earlier, had to go to aunts house.

Bump... Shall we try this again?

Bump... Shall we try this again?

Ok, Miehm appears from nowhere.

Im here.

Ironically enough, Einhauser is the one offline.

I had school, so couldnt be helped.

I want this RP to succeed, as none of my others ever have. I'm going to blank the contestant sheet tomorrow. Then, I will ask for sign-ups once more. Once I get all 5 contestants, I will immediatly start the RP.

If you guys want to be in it still, you have until 5:00 my time (37 minutes after I post this) to reserve a spot. Jenrak, you can reserve as well, if someone doesnt retake their position.

I will be getting on at 10:30 AM Western Pacific time. To avoid further confusion, I will post a time table at the bottom of this post. Please look up your time zone and get on at the agreed upon time. If this time is no good for you, please post why, and i will see if I can change it.

10:30 AM Pacific time is equal to:

11:30 AM Mountain time is equal to:

12:30 PM Central time is equal to:

1:30 PM Eastern time.

If you live in England/ Western Europe, I'm guessing you are four hours ahead of me, and thus should get on at 2:30 PM.

I'll be in if I am not busy

Damnit, stupid timezones, i have school from 7:15 am to 2:35 PM eastern time.

I need to know whether you will be busy or not. For sure.

EDIT: Willink, I may be able to contort the schedual a bit. Im really loathe to start at 10:30, since i only get up at 10:00, so lets see what the other players are doing.

I'm not gonna be home at 1:30 Eastern, I'll be at Band Practice everyday except monday, and then I'll be at games until who knows when on Fridays.

well I probably wont be back until 6:45 pm EST

Ok, looking at your guys' scheds, I think I found a better one:

4:30 Pacific time

5:30 Mountain time

6:30 Central time

7:30 Eastern time

8:30 Western European time (???)

Work for everyone?

Every day but Friday, but that's unavoidable, so I'm cool.

Well, I only really intend for this RP to take a day, so it shouldnt get to Friday.

good with me

Might anything after 9:45 EST in really good, but that would work fine.

Your plan would work fine, what you said, but anything after 9:45 Eastern time would work great.

Is there any reason 9:45 is better?

Dad always hates it when im on the pc, then kicks me off, so 9:45 after he goes to sleep, so much better for me, so dont be suprised if i get off randomly.

(sorry I didnt reply immediatly. I had to go launch a missile. Unfortunatly, it crashed in the ocean and the entire program had to be flushed. If you know what I mean, of course)

Well, how does this work for the rest of you:

6:45 Pacific

7:45 Mountain

8:45 Central

9:45 Eastern

10:45 Western European

Of course, the RP is liable to run 1 - 2 hours in length, so factor that in to your descision.

fine, as long as I remember

6:30 Central time

8:30 Western European time (???)

Augh, now I have to go find it. Curse you Einhauser.

Oops, forgot you had already posted it. Sorry, hehe.

We can start with only three people, but I want to wait 6 more minutes for the others to show up. Then we will start, with or without them.

OOC: Oh, and Einhauser...Western Europe is UTC, aka GMT.
Which means:

Atlantic Standard Time is 8:30 PM

Western European time would be: 12:30 AM

Try and keep your time zones straight.

I could only find maps of the united states time zones, lol. Sorry for the mix up. You still in, TFR?

I need an answer. Yes or no. Quickly.

You bet I am.

Here's a descript for Fen'Ris Sco'Lar:

He's an elf, about 4'5. He has tan skin, and always has something to write with behind each ear.

Ok, im gonna go bump the thread and edit it. Just post that your charactar is ready and we'll start.

Fen'Ris enters the game show set and takes his place where he needs to be, signifying his readiness.

sry trade of noobs is my puppet and i logged on to his acount to reach a thread he was on and it switched this one to it too.

Oh, I see. That happened to me with several of my puppets. As time went on the computer recognized one account from the other (or something) and stopped doing it.

Timothy Smith

shouldn't there be some reward for getting the answer right, first? otherwise all the other contestants can just copy your answer...

Well, they have only done that on the Athens question. If i do a second round (some other day) ill rework the rules.

Good RP everyone. Im gonna log off now, so c ya
