Roa I would love your help!! I don't know if letting outside votes count, I found in the Zoom challenge there were not many, but I think we could let the players vote if they like, if not myself and my co-mods can decide.

I still need co-mods though....Roa you want the job?

The game will only be no longer then 2 weeks, eight days at the least. I have worked out alot of the kinks now, I just need someone to go over them with me...hint, hint, co-mod....

Sure, I'll co-mod. Just let me know what you need me to do.

I guess I already posted you my "off-line dates", but if not, then July 18th -22nd + July 28th- August 4th I will not be online. If this game goes on outside these dates, you can count on me giving you all back up as a co-mod (writing the scenarios etc.).

But if this starts after the August 4th, I might be interested to play it too...

The game will most likely start around the week of the 13th of August. Also if players want to sign up or ask more questions, feel free to do them here on this thread. I will be posting a new one for the game...(with the right spelling this time!! )

Some rules and guidelines

While this is not a regular RPG, it is not as farcical as the Mount Zoom Challenge. we ask that though play remain light and creative, it stick to the realm of Middle Earth. (That means no attack hamsters.)


All players must complete their scenarios within a 36 hour period, that includes picking your direction and moving in to it. Anyone not complete in this period will not move forward.

The Days will be 36, nights will be 12 hours.

You can be most Races (no bad races though! )

You must submit a character bio the first day of play, We will however need a quick one containing your name, race, age and such when you sign up

Players should be able to commit to about 2 weeks or perhaps a bit more.

we will need at least 10 players

Given scenario and three questions, to be used via pm

Order of Nightly events

Players vote for best scenario (You cannot vote for yourself!)
Point tallies, positions, and state of players posted (start of next day)

The only thing that will take place in the public forum will be role playing and dealing with scenarios. If you and another player are in the same area at the same time, you may interact. You have the option of working with your fellows to solve the scenario (though you cannot post questions publically, you will be able to share the information gained from the questions.) You also have the option of working against your fellow players to move ahead of them.

Clarification on information sharing

You cannot state what questions you are asking. However, if you so choose, you may share the information gained from the questions with other players that are in your area. You also have the option of misleading other players by giving them false information. (Note: No pming each other: this must be done in the RP only.)

You may not interact with players outside your location. (Obviously)
