[ Suddenly you find yourself on top of a large, team-colored tower -- the ones in the center of the lake, to be precise. Inspecting closer you’ll find that the tower is actually made of removable blocks: large, brittle candy blocks.

Looking around you, all of the other teams’ towers are visible to you, in a circle around the wide lake. But although you can make out the number of blocks in each tower and which team they belong to, it is impossible to yell between towers. Huh.

On top of your platform is a set of three objects on a table, with a sign that says “Eat one and win!”: a Jawbreaker, some Peanut Brittle, and a small cup of Whipped Cream.

There are no handrails or edges, and if you peer over the side, you can see that your tower is standing in a lake made of jello. . . ]

ROUND 1

[soulping]

ITEMS:

JAWBREAKER: cause two random blocks to be shaken out of an enemy’s tower, and a 1 in 3 chance of them losing a random block the next turn (roll a 3 on a d3)
WHIPPED CREAM: become disoriented, losing the ability to decide what blocks you pick for one round. Effects stack if multiples are played on the same team; does not affect special attacks.
PEANUT BRITTLE: removes two blocks of your choosing from an enemy’s tower.

How strange.

Re: Discussion

[listentomybardsong]

It's an actual game!

One that appears somewhat fun, even.

Re: Discussion

[bloodbiter]

It does seem like it'll be an enjoyable time. Now, let's decide what we should do first.

Re: Discussion

[listentomybardsong]

Hmm. . .

Going for the blocks in the center may be best.

Re: Discussion

[bloodbiter]

That seems wise to me as well. Would you use any of our items yet?

Re: Discussion

[listentomybardsong]

Whipped cream could be a good start, unless it'd be better to wait until towers are weaker. . .

We could do the jawbreaker first.

[LOOKING EXCITED]

That stuff looks delicious!

Re: Discussion

...

This is different.

Re: Discussion

[listentomybardsong]

It is?

Re: Discussion

[nodo]

I don't have too much experience with things like this.

[ he means the sweets... ]

Re: Discussion

[listentomybardsong]

Hmm, I guess, to be fair, there are rarely situations like this.

[including the sheer amount of candy]

Re: Discussion

[nodo]

It isn't a bad thing necessarily...

So how are we thinking of doing this?

Re: Discussion

[listentomybardsong]

I believe that we decided on the jawbreaker first—and we can, perhaps, remove the blocks from the center.

Re: Discussion

[bloodbiter]

At least it seems different in a good way.

Re: Discussion

[nodo]

That's true, but I wonder if we can manage to eat all of what lies ahead.

[ clearly #firstworldproblem worthy ]

Re: Discussion

[bloodbiter]

Hydra can, if nobody else is up to the task.

Re: Discussion

[nodo]

Oh. Well that's good... I'll eat anything that doesn't have bread if it helps.

[ That's still potentially a lot... ]

Re: Discussion

[bloodbiter]

Do you have an allergy?

Re: Discussion

[pawper]

I can eat it!

Re: Discussion

[nodo]

All of it?

Re: Discussion

[pawper]

All of it!

Turn-In

[soulping]

[ please select blocks based on their number; the numbers are on the spreadsheet provided. Ex: 10.1, 3.3, etc ]

[ Add any special items here too! ]

Re: Turn-In

[bloodbiter]

Taking blocks from 9.2 and 8.2 in their own tower, and using a jawbreaker against Ratatoskr!
