TIAMAT + GARY

[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.

How many flowers do the flower packets give us?

Re: OOC QUESTIONS

[inbeta]

Each flower packet counts as one flower planted!

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. ]

[relaxfriend]

You lucked out.

[Oh hai.]

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

Turn-in is due by 3:30pm PST.

[hyanaimne]

WHOOPS they went to buy a shovel and planted the two trees they have. Progress!

ROUND 2 - THE SECOND DAY -

[inbeta]

[ And suddenly, it's 10am again! The fruits have regrown if they were removed, fossils are buried again, and any new trees have grown to full trees (although bare).

Also, maybe it's just you, but the background music has changed and the day-moon looks like it's gotten closer.... ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[that went by fast . . . she's immediately plucking any fruits from the trees that were already there]

We need to work more quickly this time. Perhaps if we split duties?

[relaxfriend]

[totally noticing the music change, sigh.

was also picking fruits.]

One of us can go sell off some fruit while the other puts that shovel to use?

Gary dug up five fossils! Tempest went and sold all their fruits and bought first one packet of seeds, and then (hopefully) three more! MORE PROGRESS. And Gary was on his way to the museum to check into what to do with fossils.

ROUND 3 - THE FINAL DAY -

[inbeta]

[ And suddenly, it's 10am again! The fruits have regrown if they were removed, fossils are buried again, and any new trees have grown to full trees (although bare). Any trees planted on day 1 have begun producing fruit, however.

It's also worth noting that the bgm has changed again and the day-moon is so close, you can almost touch it...somehow.... ]

INVENTORY

[inbeta]

Bank: 200 bells
Flowers: 4
Trees: 4

But okay no time for bitching he's heading for the museum with his fossils.]

MUSEUM

[inbeta]

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

Wonder what happens when you poke it awake? ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[hyanaimne]

[she's going to plant some flowers :B And then collect those fruits (6 of them) and go to sell five of those for more flowers (6 more packs) SORRY GARY.

Though she'll save a fruit to see if she can't just plant that, too]

So they planted 6 flower packs, a fruit tree sapling, Gary took the fossils to the museum which he ended up selling for 20,000 bells, bought 4 flower packets, ended up with 19,200 bells, and planted the remaining four flower packs!
