OME... TOT... CHILLI OMMELETTES

[There’s room for seven in this weather-worn hut, with seven chairs around a table long enough for seven people.

The center of the table is adorned with wooden jugs of water and wooden snack bowls. It’s primarily fruits and nuts, although there are a couple brimming with Unidentified Raw Meat.]

TASK ONE (5pm - 7pm)

[personal profile] toomuchyakking 2014-01-31 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
☆ Task one is the objective portion! Each individual character has two hours to complete the tasks on this list!

☆ Everyone has their own list, so you’ll all be submitting separately. Do as many as you can, and turn in your task list here before 7:10 pm. You get 10 extra minutes to submit after this round has ended! Make sure to link and [x] mark those tasks you fully completed.

☆ I’m freezing the comments at 7:10pm, so though you can continue back-threading to your heart’s content, none of it will count for winning!

☆ Oh, and lying won’t work ♥ The echo has magically prevented you from lying.

If you are the only person representing your team, you instead will have to make a heartfelt speech about what you hope you’ll remember, what you don’t want to remember, and what sort of person you hope you are and submit it to turn in here before before 7:10 pm. You get 10 extra minutes to submit after this round has ended!

☆ I’m freezing the comments at 7:10pm, so though you can continue back-threading to your heart’s content, none of it will count for winning!

☆ Don’t get too distracted, because task two begins at 7pm, and you need to keep an eye out for the next task comment on your team post!

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-01-31 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah. . . um. . .

I do not make very good speeches. So I. . . apologize, in advance. If it is. . . rather stilted. But I will try to do so, because Omelette could use a winning streak.

Please forgive me. . . for saying that. But it is true, so I do not apologize for almost begging.

I suppose so. We can only ask each other.

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-01-31 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Should we try to win by listing as many as possible. . . ? I could go first.

Let us try that.
assimilation: (unsure • you pick up all the pins)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-01-31 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah. . .

[ '-'! ahem, here she goes ]

I would like to remember where I come from. I do not know. . . yet, but I would like to. The past is a blur. But I am worried that what I will remember is not pleasant, mostly, letting my brother down and running away. . . I do not want to be that sort of person, now that I have spent time here. I suppose that is my worry, as well. . . is to be too weak to be effective. Or to be left behind because I am not. . . good enough.

My secret. . . mm, I think, I am not fully human. Though I do not remember much, I remember that everyone I met . . . was hostile about it. And that somehow, something was supposed to make me "better," and a leader, but. . . I could not be that. I think. . . part of me is man made. Somehow.

I would like for the team to be more . . . optimistic. Though I do not. . . help in that regard. I can try harder. And I do not hate anything about our team -- except. . . mm, our patron, he could make the dorm smell less. And I have played so many board games. . . I am quite tired of them.

And I do not find people attractive. . . ah, mm, but you seem very intelligent, so perhaps. . . a 5. . .?
lucciola: (pic#4780819)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-01-31 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah...

[THAT IS A LOT TO TAKE IN]

Board games with our patron? [easiest to ask about sob]
assimilation: (Default)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-01-31 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes....I had to play a lot of them.
lucciola: (pic#4851494)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-01-31 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I see why that can be repetitive.

[thinks for a bit, looking at the questions]

I think... I would like to remember something that... is a little more, I do not exactly know how to describe it, but perhaps happy. I remember a few things that... that I do not think I like very much. It... is difficult to gauge. And I do not know what I would be the most afraid to remember. I think... I have already had a few... memories that have made me afraid. I am... perhaps a little afraid to remember more, but I cannot run from it.

I also worry that I will not be able to... to be enough for my team. There have been many situations where you all have done a lot for me, and... and I do not want people to get hurt because of me. It does not feel right. I do not want to be a liability.

My secret... I am not sure but, I have a memory of a secret, something I was not allowed to tell, because it was not allowed. It is a little... how shall I say it, strange to talk about. I needed to keep a secret that Lord Dio— [pauses a little, hesitant, searching for words and looking down] —that... Rook was secretly giving me food. But we could not talk about it, because it could get dangerous if the Maestro found out.

Aah... I... think I would like our team to be... optimistic is good... but we could probably get a little more courage. I could need to talk a bit more with everyone too... It is a little difficult to rate that kind of thing. I do not hate anything about our team either. It... I do not know. Our Patron is a strange man.

... I do not understand the scale, however. What... does it mean? Whether or not other people are... attractive? I am not sure I really think about that... though... but. I enjoy talking to you. [I think] A... 7?

TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[personal profile] toomuchyakking 2014-02-01 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
♥ You have ten minutes to finish submitting your first task list! Go! And when you’re done…

♥ Task two will be a semi-subjective design portion. As a team, you have two hours to write a smack-talking rap boasting about your own team, and disparaging the opposing team, their mothers, etc.

♥ The teams who will be rapping off:
Ratatoskr versus Amalthea
Epona versus Takshaka
Tiamat versus Barghest
Dawon versus Ometotchtli

♥ Points will be given based on your rap’s complexity! That means you get points for:
- Rhyming
- Length
- Strength of insult
- General hilarity

♥ You get extra points for every team task in the first half you can work into your rap! Your hotness ratings, team mottos, the gossip, the secrets, etc. all count for bonus points if used. O snap. If you solo’d it, you get extra points for doing the tasks in your rap.

Before 9:10 pm, someone from your team has to perform the team rap in public here. Make sure to do it before 9:10pm! That’s the hard limit.

♥ You can view, listen and heckle all raps from the other teams as well as your opposing team.

♥ The game ends at 9:10pm sharp, and scoring will begin at 9:10pm. If you don’t have both tasks completed and submitted by 9:10 pm, it’ll be scored on what you have done!

So...angry poetry....

[ uh ]

We do not know what a hotness scale is,
so please explain it to us

[ oh lord ]
lucciola: (pic#4851433)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Gus?

We need to make verses that rhyme? But making them insulting is... [NOT VERY PLEASANT??]
assimilation: (Default)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
I am not a very good poem writer. . .

I do not wish to insult them. They are. . . new.
lucciola: (pic#4851475)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
I do not wish to insult them either... And I do not know anything about them.
assimilation: (eating • guess what? i am not a robot!)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps. . this Echo will see it as a passive insult if we don't. . . mention them at all.
lucciola: (pic#4851457)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
... ah... perhaps. It could be a hit or miss...
assimilation: (curious • you are so magnetic)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Hrm.....

Dawon....go home...because we really need to win...?

Is that "smack talk"?
lucciola: (pic#4851603)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
It is a little mean... they cannot go home, can they?

[I'm sorry I'm completely missing the point haha]
assimilation: (unsure • you pick up all the pins)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
I think. . . we are supposed to be mean and angry, to make a point. Though I am not good at it.
lucciola: (seriously intense lizard footjobs)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
I do not think I am either. But we do have to try...

Perhaps we could use part of your first... verse, and add a little more. And that "go home" saying? I suppose we also need to, ah, "boast" about ourselves...
assimilation: (Default)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 12:41 am (UTC)(link)

I think everyone is ... nice?
assimilation: (eating • guess what? i am not a robot!)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Alright. . .

We do not know what a hotness scale is,
so please explain it to us
before we....begin to....rap....
We do not win much...but we are all very nice,
and we do deserve this....
Dawon....go home...because we really need to win...
you have not been here long...
so you should give up, and give it. . . to us.

[ nods ]

That seems. . . appropriately mean. But not overly so.
lucciola: (pic#4851472)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds all right... Does it say somewhere how long it needs to be?
assimilation: (hesitant • never committing to anything)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
I think we get extra points if we make it longer. . .should I add to it?
lucciola: (pic#4851459)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
It says we can incorporate anything we have talked about... perhaps something vague about memories? Or optimism...

[this is so hard]
assimilation: (Default)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Mm. Let's see. . .

[ it takes her several minutes to consider this, then: ]

We are trying to be more optimistic,
because generally, we are not...
Our memories do not really inspire that. . . sort of thinking
but we will give it. . . all we have got.
Because. . . our team is a good team...
even if our dormitory smells like wine. . .
and our patron plays board games
all of the time. . .
lucciola: (pic#4851524)

[personal profile] lucciola 2014-02-01 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
... I like that. It sounds good. We could combine both of them.

[looks thoughtful for a while]

We... could use happy memories
So let us win this game...
If you... please


... I am not sure what could rhyme with game... do we need more?
assimilation: (hesitant • never committing to anything)

[personal profile] assimilation 2014-02-01 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
We think the other team's rap is....lame...

I think that should be enough?
