Gather around; there's a few changes to be made.

Starting today the winner of the game gets a real prize, accommodated by yours truly. This can be in the form of a detailed story on common trivia, a shiny toy procured, or something else altogether. The prize is a secret--winning depends on your luck and intelligence. And to up the stakes, you get no passes to assist in your survival--so do try hard, now.

Show me how the game is played, now that there's some incentive to win.

--Oh, and darlings? If you translate my words correctly, I'll consider giving you two presents instead of one.

I'd say it wouldn't be fair to attempt a prize when I suggested the idea.

But fair isn't very much fun, is it?

T.

[purgatio]

All fair in love and war and all. And it's not as if you're providing the prizes. Enjoy yourself.

And correct on both counts.

[lovecraftcomplex]

Hm. etaoin shrdlu is less useful when the language isn't english.

G.

[purgatio]

Already chosen and incorrect.

Though, what, exactly, is less useful?

[lovecraftcomplex]

Letter frequencies. It's the most efficient way to solve such a puzzle.

[rocksthecourt]

Oh how wonderful. And what brings about this bout of generosity?

[he'll give the benefit of the doubt]

[purgatio]

And who's to say I'm not ever-so-generous, hm?~

[riiight, we'll just go along with that then...]

[rocksthecourt]

Who knows? Maybe you are, maybe you're not. But people aren't usually in the habit of giving out "prizes" in this place. Let alone mystery ones. Color me surprised.

[oh, mystery person, you really are a dull bulb....]

[purgatio]

Color me bored. This was getting a bit tedious as it was, and apparently prizes are the normal outcome of such games. I cater to my players' needs in all things.~ As long as it suits.

[oh, generous OP, you're so absolutely obnoxious ~]

[rocksthecourt]

Heh. This is true. I've noticed a lot is willing to be done "as long as it suits." I guess that means you're just going with the flow along with everyone else. Kudos.

But it's still kind of funny. You're not going to give us even an itty bitty hint to what kind of prizes you're offering? It'd suck to play along just to end up with a bowl of dirt or something. Know what I'm saying?

[stlg13bomber.livejournal.com]

E!

How do we find you to get the prize?

[purgatio]

Correct.

Are you so confident in your skills, or just curious?~ By any matter, it'll be revealed to the winner after the fact.

[stlg13bomber.livejournal.com]

S

Oh, I don't know if I'll win. But I'd like to play anyway.

[purgatio]

Incorrect.

And I won't stop you. If you win, I'll be pleased.

[stlg13bomber.livejournal.com]

Great. Then R, please.

[hairraising]

Oh! This is something I played a lot with my chameleon friend at home!

A

[purgatio]

Correct.

...As in they shifted to fit the mood?

[hairraising]

Oh no, as in he was actually a chameleon.

H

[purgatio]

[ . . . . . . Congratulations. You out-trolled the troll. ]

Oh. Of course.

Correct.


[ Added after: ]

A chameleon? The lizard?

[hairraising]

[Woo, without even trying! (rock)]

Yay!

I

[Added after that response.]

What else would I mean?

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Still playing this game?

-R.Aoyagi

[purgatio]

Of course. Would you expect anything less?

Not playing today?

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Guess not.
Having a hard time concentrating so I stayed out of it today. Sorry.

-R.Aoyagi

[purgatio]

[ .........Scream. T_T ]

...Don't apologize to me.

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

[ :( ]

It isn't your fault. Don't worry about it.
