MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[principals]

Ahem! Ahem, ahem! The changes to the rules are simple:

1: The rule against consecutive hits has been abolished. If you targeted Team A in the previous round, you may target them again in this one.
2: You must play at least two cards. No less than two, no more than three. All cards must still target different teams.
3: The block system has been altered. Should two teams play against one another, the cards will only be negated if they are of exactly equal value.

If one card is higher than the other, the effect of the higher value card will go through. The successful team will also receive orbs equal to the difference between the two cards. For example, a ten against a six will net four orbs.

Oh, and I suppose that this is the final round.

[The intercom clicks off.]

[dereban]

Well, that sure just happened.

[ That's definitely interesting at the very least... ]

[endsintheocean]

...Ah.

[and that's all he has to say about that]

[anoblecaws]

Welp. I guess everyone milked the block clause for all it was worth last round.

[barrette]

[ fffffffffuck ]

Ooooooooof course he had to screw everything up.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

Mmm... more changes than the one I thought there would be, but it is there all the same.

I suppose that this likely will be the last round.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

Think of it as a challenge.

[dereban]

Looks like it, though I'm actually interested in these rule changes.

[anoblecaws]

You are? Why? All he did was remove the weirdly cushy rules. [Was the principal trying to make them despair??? But it was kind of obvious to Henry that the rules wouldn't last forever, because they were pretty compassionate for a murdergame such as this.]

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[hardertheyfall]

That's good, isn't it? It means we're almost done here.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

Not necessarily. Simply because the game is over does not mean we will necessarily go home.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[anoblecaws]

Oh, good! It's been a while, I'm getting kind of bored.

[evenimprobable]

Well. That's nice.

[and not a surprise at all, though the extent is, a little]

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[hardertheyfall]

You are good at a lot of things, but lifting spirits may not be one of them.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

I am sure that you are.

Hmm... since this is the last round, the block on speaking about the game should be lifted after. I would like for all teams to compare notes then.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

I would rather provide clear, accurate information than needlessly raise spirits.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[endsintheocean]

I wonder what will happen next.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[anoblecaws]

You know me that good already?

[He shrugs.] Tactics aren't my thing, but it might be cool to listen to.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

Indeed. Call it pooling our notes.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

The final round, of course.

Then, we should compare notes once done with the game to see what may be learned.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[anoblecaws]

What would you use 'em for, though? Game's over.

[rippers]

...the final round? Hnn, somehow I expected this to go on longer. At any case, I suppose it is a stroke of fortune.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[goodbyenurse]

Multiple things. I always like gathering all the information I can after a game, to see what may be learned to refine the play of myself and others to ensure minimal impact.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[endsintheocean]

Good idea. ...It'll be quite a relief to be able to speak more freely about the game.

Re: MINGLE / ANNOUNCEMENT

[experiencepoints]

Seriously? Fucking piece of shit.
