    Yeah, look what happened to me. They crossed me out.
  • edited March 2007
    ((Huh? Was someone here just now? I couldn't tell, because it wasn't posted by someone with a name that wasn't crossed out.

    I'll update the story when I get home tonight. If anyone else wishes to contribute actions along the lines of drinking or not-drinking, go for it!))

    ((The ship is now peacfully sailing acorss the waters, with the monster defeated. It looks like a great way to end our drunken sailors' adventures! But alas, a new challenger has approached! A giant underwater cave suddly pops out of the water in a fashion similar to the Woodfall Temple in Majora's Mask! *ahem* The cave is still half-under water, so you could sail into it.
    Do you:
    [T]urn around
    [G]o around it
    low up the ship
    [D]rink, then enter for some drunken adventures))

    It's impossible to enter the cave sober?

    Staying on the vague topic givien by the first post *Glares at pretty much everybody*, I say that Waldo is currently sneaking across the border to get to Canada. He's gotta stay away from the police, I mean why else would he be hiding all the time.

    Oh yeah, I forgot..... [D]. Yep, definately [D].

    ((Nobody’s posted for an entire four hours, so…
    All of the sailors enter the cave haphazardly because they are somewhat sloshed. “Something’s not right *hiccup* here…” says Ted, the head skipper. Suddenly one of the sailors finds a big X on the ground with shovels to spare! Should they:

    [D]ig for glorious buried treasure
    ing a pirate’s shanty for good luck’s sake
    [T]ake a nap to regain their HP and possibly sober up a little
    [Dr] Drink, drink drink!!1))

    [size=+3]Episode 1, Turn 4[/size]

    Several members of the crew decide they've had enough to drink for now(including geoko, who had initially requested another drink, then turned it down several times over). The rest of the crew, however, agrees that those guys are probably crazy, and distribute another round of lager. A few of the sailors appear to be so drunk as to state that they are initiating actions most unusual, like examining non-existent caves or attempting to attack the sea serpent after it has already left. The (relatively) more sober crew members shrug off this strange behavior as a common side effect of drunkenness. Amoeba Boy volunteers to man the helm, so they don't crash into a rock or something, because that would suck.

    Too bad he's still pretty drunk. The ship runs over some shallow waters and scrapes against the rocks, breaching the hull and stopping it dead in its tracks. The rocks are near enough the surface to prevent the ship from sinking, but it isn't gonna float on open waters any time soon. Luckily, most of the crew is still too drunk to notice or care. The rocks are shallow enough to traverse on foot, and deeper waters are within walking distance. The sailors that can see straight notice a larger rock not too far away that might have something of interest, because when there's only one place to go, it's usually worth going to. You:

    [G] et off the ship and explore your surroundings, especially that interesting-looking big rock island
    tay behind to guard the ship and protect the more drunk crew members
    [DR] ink

    X'o'Lore abstains from drinking long enough to enact a crazy half-baked plan to chase after the ailing maritime monster and steal the ale from its very belly. He takes a deep breath and jumps into the ocean, swimming downward for a few seconds before the oxygen in his lungs can be held in no longer. He quickly exhales, but rather than immediately suffocating, he finds that he has the ability to breathe underwater! Feeling the sides of his neck, X'o'Lore discovers that he had a set of gills there the whole time. He muses to himself that he probably should have discovered sooner in life the fact that he was part merman. Shrugging off this glaring inconsistency in his life, he presses onward into the shadowy depths.

    Soon he comes across a signpost on the ocean floor. It reads:

    [N] orth: to the drunken sea serpent
    outh: to the open ocean
    [E] ast: to a cave that might be worth examining, I dunno
    [W] est: to nothing interesting at all. For reals
    p: back to your now-marooned ship and crew
    [DR] ink

    "What an oddly-specific signpost", X'o'Lore attempts to state aloud, but as he is underwater, it only comes out as a muffled flurry of bubbles.

    ((Seriously guys, I'm the DM here. When this game's over, someone else can start a new round, but you don't get to take control of this adventure.))
  • edited March 2007
    You better listen to him guys he could totally poison all that alcohol you're drinking
  • edited March 2007
    Oh......... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
    I don't like being poisoned. It's hardly entertaining.
  • edited March 2007
    Guys, that totally wasn't my fault, those rocks came out of no where!
  • edited March 2007
    Hmmmm. I feel compelled to go weast. This does not, however, appear to be an option. What was I doing again? I totally forgot. Well, west is apparently not interesting at all. South to the open ocean? Bah! If I cared about the open ocean, I'd...I dunno, go to Disneyland or something. That cave sounds cozy. Maybe it'd be a good place for a nap. Still, a drunken sea serpent? That's so crazy! I gotta check that shit out! ...Maybe he's got some extra drink. Man I'm thirsty. Hey...dude. The air appears to be made of water!

    [Dr]
    *wince*
    Wow that's nasty. Maybe I'm gonna go hit up that serpent.

    There is no "CONFUSED" here.

  • edited March 2007

  • edited March 2007
    I'd prefer to low up the rock island and get on with whatever I was doing before the serpent showed up.

    [size=+3]Episode 1, Turn 4.1[/size]

    NoLonger activates a series of explosives in an attempt to blow up the rock island. Unfortunately, he forgot to remove them from the backpack he was wearing. A spectacular explosion erupts, sending little bits and pieces of NoLonger flying everywhere. Some seagulls descend to the rocks and pick at his charred remains, thus completing the circle of life. Because, I dunno, he ate a seagull once. He's weird like that.

    NoLonger is dead.
  • edited March 2007
    Nolonger dead?

    Thank goodness for that!
  • edited March 2007
    Aww. Could I get a redo? Eh, whatever I'll just plan my revenge in a seagull stomach. Revenge wil undoubtably involve pouring a rain of seagull stomach acid at "No one in particular".


    Edit: I was wearing a backpack? Cool, I wonder what else was in it. Maybe some rope!!!
  • edited March 2007
    Sorry, you're nolonger alive.

    I may be dead but I can still say this: My name makes me sad now.

    Geoko debates his options for a moment, and decides that despite the option to drink where he is, if he [G]ets off the boat, he's in for a drunken adventure, which is far cooler than just being drunk. Plus, he's a friggin mage. Even more plus, there's probably more booze around here than there is on the boat anyways. and maybe some fly honies. [G][G][G]

    After being shaken out of an oddly long nap below deck, I emerge onto deck and notice that the majority of the crew is either passed out or vomiting. Also noticing the ship is broken due to hitting some rocks (and realizing that's probably what woke me up), I decide to tay and take care of my fellow drunkard shipmates.
