Isleh Released MERCS 1
Kirt Released- Temple 0

Wait? So where am I, then? And what about these damned handcuffs?

BTW: I'm fairly certain I'm not in anyone's custody....

[Isleh]

Then Kirt Said Screw all this mickey mouse crap and found out through Fed where Ekade was and walked right into their hands . Cause im evil like that and have no problems gettng beat up now and then. Oh and more information was learned. Pretty much all of it since I was ALT+Tabing to make sure i had the correct Resources that the miners were getting along with all the other Crap.

Well Im saying I gave up the rest of the reasons as to why we went after ekade, I had to get the resources sames, crap like that. That way they were no longer in the dark. Information about it wasnt posted widely or even spread except through word of mouth cause we thought in the dark would be a bit more....Real since she wouldnt know crap till whenever but it just seemed to piss people off so I put it out there when I got captured ((my choice)) and went from why they were after her to them finding Rhian.

I think the phrase is "Catch 22" (Google it)

Key MERCS had information that Temple needed.
Temple could not approach said Key MERCS (See the cliff notes as to why).
Said Key MERCS would not let that information out of their possession

Any third party gaining the information was a dead end.
Novall tried later. In essence, giving it away.
Ekade's only option was to give up to gain it.

Then in addition to the breakdown of communication I have to add this:

"The misunderstanding that real does not always equate to fun".

Real is permadeath after the first deathblow.
Real is not letting your guard down and letting your prisoner escape.

The level of realism was cranked so high on this one point that realism in other parts of the story arc suffered.

[Aknal Dreidel]

rinna isn't captured. Rhian is.

[Rinna]

rinna isn't captured. Rhian is.

Whew! I was really worried there for a minute. I know I haven't been following the arc particularly well, but I didn't think I'd been doing THAT bad a job... Thanks for the clarification, Aknal. :-)

Now....about these handcuffs.... /wink Ekade

Rinna

[Ekade]

Yeah I need a box score summary

Rinna Captured - MERCS 1
Isleh Captured - MERCS 2
Kirt Captured - Temple 1
Isleh Released MERCS 1
Kirt Released- Temple 0

I think it was more like this:

Dasumi beat up MERCS 0.5
Isleh Captured MERCS 1
Dasumi captured MERCS 2
Isleh escaped MERCS 1
Kirt, Adunaphel, Jaminos, Ahnal, Zalimdor captured (overturned by instant replay) TEMPL 4.. err.. MERCS 1
Dasumi released MERCS 0
Batak changes jerseys TEMPL -1
Kirt, Adunaphel, Crystal captured (captives protest, intant replay reveals no infraction, captives go free anyways) TEMPL +3.. errr.. TEMPL 0
Isleh captured MERCS 1
Rhian captured MERCS 2
Batak captured MERCS 3
Dasumi captured MERCS 4
Yala captured MERCS 5
Jordyn captured MERCS 6
(Kiva logs on to find she is down 6!!! wtf!!!)
Yala escapes MERCS 5
Jordyn escapes MERCS 4
Dasumi released MERCS 3
Isleh released (or escapes? ) MERCS 2
Kiva captured MERCS 12 (+ 10 bonus points for Kiva )
Isleh captured MERCS 13
Kiva abused MERCS 753 (+500 naked kiva bonus, + 250 magic slave collar ingenuity award, heretofore known as the I-WIN award)
Batak "escapes" <-- selective removal from story MERCS 12
Kiva released MERCS 2
Isleh released MERCS 1
Kirt captured TEMPL 1 (Kirt is only worth 2 bonus points)
Kirt released <- when given the choice of death or releasing Rhian, chose death.. Since nobody can die = automatic release. MERCS +100 (I-WIN: "I'm a mandalorian" bonus)

Final score:
Rhian captured MERCS 1



BUT SERIOUSLY....

Minor "cheeze" aside this has been a very riveting and immersive event for me, perhaps a bit too much at times. I think everyone who has participated has done an awesome job. Yes, there are things we could have done better, and we will as we march on.

Kirt has done such a wonderful job with hounding me relentlessly. He is always very understanding OOC and always a complete ass IC. I could not ask for more. He is a great sport and tries to balance "fair" with realism, and is always making things happen. He will take the fall with grace.

RP on!!!

[KirtViza]

Actually I didnt Choose Death, I wanted to start alot of crap/Drama IC for you guys by showing dasumi that yala and you didnt care abour Rhian cause you would kill me befor atleast trying to get Rhian back. Dasumi During a heated fight with Yala released me from my binds and I was all (( DRAMAFTW!! PWN U NUBS)). Thats all I was really trying to acomplish in the ship. I wasnt do anything I know kirt wouldnt do.

And at halftime:

Alonzo shows up, and in a half assed effort solos both guilds and tells them to stfu



Seriously, this is like watching a slap fight between screech and urkel

[E-bo Obi]

NAH UH!

I am so dizzy from reading this thread I have no idea where my character would start as far as getting involved in concerned.

[E-bo Obi]

Its better after a few drinks. You find you just don't care anymore.

Jabe

I can understand because I don't even know how I escaped from the last capture...

Maybe we should just go back to the part where Ekade is chained up naked?

Jabe

[Shensen]

YAY! I mean yes, perhaps that would be best.

[warsloth]

Since I wasn't capped I don't seem to register on the score, but what about points for pistol whipping Batak after he re-shirted to the mercs team? then my subsequent reception of teh PWN?

in other words: where's my love?
