OMETOTCHTLI + TAKSHAKA

[soulping]

[ You're led through the TV into a...2-D looking world! The observant may notice that the world looks quite similar to the one you visited in her last game, although none of the prior landmarks are present.

In front of you are two trees, bearing fruit, and a sign-post. The sign tells you that there is a shop to your north, a museum to your left, and a town-hall to your right. To your south just seems to be grassy fields, with some strange star markings scattered throughout. ]

RULES.

[inbeta]

▶ This is a "grow your town" game!

▶ You will have three "days"/rounds in order to grow your town! Each round will last an hour and a half.

▶ You start with 500 bells and two full fruit trees.

▶ There is a shop to the north (where you can buy tools and sell things), a museum to the left (where you can check fossils and donate items), and a town hall to your right (where Game Freak is sitting to help you out).

▶ IF YOU WANT TO BUY/SELL/DONATE FOSSILS and I do not seem to be getting the memo, please pp me on plurk (seasidekingdom) or PM me! I am going to try to watch things so I can put up the scenarios for the museum/store/town hall, but if it's hidden in a tag I may need a head's up. I will also handle all the RNG-ing and pricing.

▶ Wins will be assigned for the wealthiest towns (most bells saved up), the most cultured towns (most donations to museum), and greenest towns (most trees/flowers). If there are wins left over, then the remaining wins will be decided on the entertainment value Game Freak got out of your experience or a second win for one of the previously-mentioned categories.

▶ Also, please note that skills are off!

OOC QUESTIONS

[inbeta]

I don't have IRC on this computer, so if you need to ask me any questions please do so here!

If for some reason that's problematic, you can also PM this account or private plurk me at seasidekingdom.

ROUND 1 - THE FIRST DAY -

[inbeta]

[ The day starts at 10 am. Your trees are filled with fruit, and there are fossils buried under stars around. You can also see a day-moon off in the distance, but you're probably not interested in that or the accompanying background music.

You can choose to visit the store, the museum, or the town hall, or you can wander around the fields. ]

DISCUSSION

[inbeta]

TURN-IN

[inbeta]

Please summarize what your team has done during this round (ex. planted two trees, sold a trilobite fossil for $3,000, etc.)!

Linking is not necessary, although you will need to complete the tasks in the discussion thread.

Re: DISCUSSION

[barrette]

[ well i'm going to wander around in the fields to see if i can find anything there! ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[inbeta]

[ The fields are pretty barren, just lightly covered with grass, but every so often you might notice a strange star shape on the ground. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[barrette]

[ hmm... making note of where the marks are, and then heading to the store! ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[inbeta]

[ When you walk in to the store, a raccoon comes up to you gushing about his "crrrrazy deals".

As for offered items, you see the following: a shovel for 500 bells and flowers for 200 bells. ]

Would you like to make a purchase, yes yes? Or perhaps you have something to sell?

Re: DISCUSSION

[barrette]

I'd like that shovel, please!

[ i'm going to dig up whatever is under those marks ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[inbeta]

That will be 500 bells, thank you! Good, good, the money's all here....here you go.

[ Your bank goes from 500 bells to 0. On the plus side, you're now +1 shovel. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[lucciola]

[... also wandering the fields curiously for now]

Re: DISCUSSION

[barrette]

Thank you!

[ back to the field to start digging at every last star shape...! ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[inbeta]

[ As Sparrow saw, the fields are pretty barren, just lightly covered with grass, but every so often you might notice a strange star shape on the ground. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[inbeta]

[ There are five total, so once you've finished with that you will have 5x Unidentified Fossils. Congrats. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[barrette]

[ hmm... she gathers them up and it's off to the museum with her! fossils and stuff are in museums, surely someone there will know wtf these are. ]

Hello!

MUSEUM

[inbeta]

[ Walking in, you see an owl....napping on the job. Huh.

Wonder what happens when you poke it awake? ]

Re: MUSEUM

[barrette]

[ . . .

prods with a foot ]

Excuse me!

Re: MUSEUM

[inbeta]

[ Startles awake in a burst of hopping and feathers. ]

Hoo! Hoo, hoo....

A visitor?! Oh dear, I apologize...I just get so sleepy, you see...

...Well, welcome to the town museum. We proudly display all the finest artifacts...or we will, once we find some.

Re: MUSEUM

[barrette]

Artifacts like these? Can you tell me what they are?

[ holds out her fossils!! ]

Re: MUSEUM

[inbeta]

Ah, you have found some! Certainly, certainly...

[ Taking those five fossils and giving them a good look-over. ]

It appears as though you've found an Archelon Skull, a Dimetrodon Torso, an Iguanodon Skull, a Parasaur Skull, and a Raptor Skull! Oh, my...these are all fine specimen that we would love to present in the museum.

[ Handing them back over. ]

I do ask that you consider donating them, for the cultural good of the town! But it is your decision, hoo hoo.

Re: MUSEUM

[barrette]

You can have four of them! I need the Raptor Skull.

[ to sell so i can plant flowers!

she hands over the remaining four. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[lucciola]

[what happens if I investigate these stars?]

Re: MUSEUM

[inbeta]

Hoo, hoo! Thank you very much for your generosity.

[ Pocketing those fossils. Your museum now has the following:

Archelon Skull
Dimetrodon Torso
Iguanodon Skull
Parasaur Skull ]

Re: MUSEUM

[barrette]

I'll be back if I find more!

[ TO THE STORE AGAINNNNNNNNNNN ]
