[PHALLA] The Court of King Phallis - SIGN UPS CLOSED

DarkPrimusDarkPrimus Registered User regular
edited June 2007 in Critical Failures
Greetings my noble Madame or Monsieur.
This letter express the great pleasure
Of our most wise and esteemed Majesty,
The great and benevolent King Phallis,
Who grants you the honor of attendance
To the royal ball, which is one week hence.



This game takes place at the grand palace of King Phallis, ruler of Phalla.

The game differs from past Phallas in a fundamental way- there are no guardians, no seers. Instead, there is a new bidding system where all players have a chance to seer an individual or gain protection.

The dialogue of characters in the narration will be written in rhyming verse. Because of how lengthy usernames can be, as well as for greater immersion, everyone will be given a pseudonym for the duration of the game. Please put your pseudonym in your custom title or location so we can keep track of everyone. There is a convenient list of French names available here.

I have also prepared avatars that you may use. Please post which avatar you are using and what your pseudonym will be in your sign up post.

    Do you require that we use an avatar and name from the provided lists?

    I do not require usage of an avatar.

    It is, however, preferred. ;-)

    For the ease of writing narration, I do ask that you pick a pseudonym. There are hundreds that you could use.

    Ah, good. The avatar issue was what I was more concerned about.

    I sign up as Yseult, pending a better name that I think of on my own. I will, of course, run it by you first if I do so.

    Hmm, two games at once. This should be interesting and very very confusing.

    I sign up as Lisette, with the avatar I've just changed to. (Fourth on your list)

    cheez is cruel...nothing rhymes with Yseult.

    The choice of a name is very important, and shan't be rushed by the clamouring of the Mob. (I go to work now, tonight I shall have a name.)

    In French, yes, being short for Guillaume. In English or German, it's "gye." I don't mind if DarkPrimus picks the French pronunciation in order to fit his theme. But if you ask me, I'm The Amazing Guy (skip to 2:00).

    It's just a video game character named Guy making a showy entrance. My friends and I were joking about his name even before that, but that moment was priceless.

    Anyway, consider yourself duly warned that I will be taking every opportunity to make Bad Guy puns.

    It isn't going to run for any longer than one week. Also, while I didn't pay attention to that particular Phalla, I can guarantee that my bidding system will make for a different game.

    The only relation is that it is french. The D&D phalla was unbalanced (even had a false start) and the GM basically quit out on the game.
