1 Gold Dubloom Pistol 1 Bullet Old sword Broken Compass Im up for preventing this from getting too silly too quickly but im not up for saying this cant happen and that cant happen. The thing i liked about this idea was that you had to make the best of what you got.

> offer broken compass for payment
You suggest to the harbourmaster that he might like your compass in return for being allowed onto the island. "You think I want that?" comes the reply. "That compass doesn't even point North!" Glancing behind you, you notice that your ship has now completely sunk beneath the water. The harbourmaster looks up from his book. "Hmm... you don't seem to have a boat any more, so I suppose you can pass. I'll need your name though. For me records, ya see..." > |

"That's Captain Karmillo O'Lacey" you reply The Harbourmaster writes this down very carefully and steps back to allow you to pass. > Quote:

You walk towards the town and end up in the main square. ON the main square itself are a pub, a blacksmiths, a sailmakers and a general goods store. Various other streets lead off the main square.
You also notice that the town has some sort of garrison fort built above it. Might be best to avoid that given your past piratical actions. >

You stroll up to the garrison fort whistling a happy tune. At the entrance a guard stops you with a hearty bellow:
"Hey, beardy! Where ya think yooooou'rrre going??"

The guard struggles to keep his eyes open "What!? Oh ok..." He squints his eyes in an attempt to identify you "A Lovely morning isnt it Maam?" You nod and head deeper into the garrison, picking up your pace before the next shit comes to releive the guard of his duty

Why are we not posting a response and a command of our own anymore? It allowed things to move quicker and for more collaboration. I agree with the direction the last one took being kinda silly though.

Because that way you could set out what happens and do what you were setting the scene up....which isnt really like a game but more like a colaborated story.
This way you dont know whats going to happen, it may go your way or it will most definetly go some way you hadnt even thought about and its allot more collaboration this way, as no-one really has full control over the events

After checking a handily placed dictionary to find out what a Boatswain is, you locate him and march up to him, humming a merry melody. The Boatswain is a short, stocky gentleman. He clutches a clipboard and is busy scribbling on it. He looks up as you approach.
"Hey, beardy! Are you a member of the crew?" he spits.

You aim your spit squarely in the boatswain's face. His surprised look quickly turns into anger.
"How dare you! You will hang for this! GUARDS!!" You quickly assess the situation. There's an angry boatswain standing next to you, and there are guards running towards you from all directions, guns drawn and swords ready. Time to get the hell out of here... or stand your ground and die. > |
