It's time once again to say gently caress you to your e/n threads about FYAD meme Warhammer 40K self-insertion fanfiction, because welcome to Twenty-One Player poo poo-Talking Chutes and Ladders: An Exciting Up and Down Game For Little Goons Well, the first one seemed to go okay. Welcome! This is a thread where people play a boardgame. It is not a board game where the players have much, if any, input into their playing of the game. In fact, you are here mostly to talk poo poo about the moral fiber, gaming ability and general life skills of your opponents and shitpost your way to glory. Quite literally, this time, as the object of the game is to overcome the moral pitfalls of the life of a child of the late seventies and climb your way to Square 100 at the top of the game board, and to tell the thread exactly why your opponents can't. Before we continue and before you sign up, read the rules. Read them. Rules v. 1.1: 1. The players consist of twenty-one goons, divided into seven teams of three (Team Charity, Team Chastity, Team Diligence, Team Humility, Team Kindness, Team Patience, Team Temperance) 1a. In order to facilitate signups, please indicate your team of first choice with your signup post. If that team is full by the time your name is reached, you will be shuffled at random into one of the other teams. 1b. We are aware that the flags and colors provided for each team in this game are non-representative at best and nonsensical at worst. Generic emblems were used for several reasons, including the fact that flags can represent more than one thing. More will be explained about this as we go on. 2. A standard Chutes and Ladders board is used. In this case, the 1979 edition. It is sitting on my dining room table. Photos of the board and dice rolls will be posted to the thread to keep everyone in the loop as the game proceeds. 2a. Instead of the spinner included with the game (which allows players to move up to six spaces in a single unladdered, unchuted move) the distance each player moves will be determined by the roll of a twelve-sided die. 3. There are two goals: 3a. One, to be the overall champion, to be better than the other 20 chumps who weren't pure enough to make it to Square 100 before you. 3b. Additionally, the best team will be determined by seeing which of the seven teams can bring all three of its members to Square 100 first. 4. Because suffering builds character but makes for an incredibly boring game the official rules can get pegged in a room. 4a. Thus, the rule that one must land exactly on the Square 100 to have reached the top of the board can be safely ignored. 5. On a given turn, each player will be rolled a die and moved "simultaneously," that is, where each player ends their turn is considered to have been reached at the same point in time. 5a. This obviously leads to the concept of a tie. Two players can occupy the same space on the board without issue. However, there will be only one individual winner. 5b. If two or more players are the first to reach the final square and do so during the same turn, they will be sent back to Square 91. The first player to cross the line must do so alone. 6. Barring emergencies or the inability to give a drat, there will be 1-2 moves per day. Probably. 7. Each team will be granted certain bonuses to allow them to reach the top of the board more quickly. 7a. The first of these is the Joker, because I've watched far too many ridiculous British game shows. Between turns, any player may use their team's Joker by posting ##Joker in the thread. It must be in that format, or it will be ignored. 7a.a. When a Joker is used, it benefits the team who played it by doubling the values of the dice rolled for all three players for that turn. Only one Joker may be played for each team in a single turn. 7a.b. Each team begins play with a single Joker. However, when play begins, additional Challenges will be made available, allowing motivated teams to earn more Jokers. 7a.c. Trust me. You want to earn more Jokers. 7a.d. Additionally, in a fairly-sizeable change from the previous game, each player on a team may now submit a response to a challenge, resulting in each joker challenge being worth up to three jokers for your team. 7b. Secondly, each player may only encounter the effects of each individual penalty square once. If, for example, after I have landed on Square 64 and ridden my bicycle with no hands and a sweet Afro, thus loving up my arm and landing on Square 60, if I land on Square 64 again, I will instead remain there. I can, however, encounter the effects of any reward square as many times as the dice indicate, climb up as many ladders as I am able to. 7b.a. Let's call this the Plumpy Amendment. Nobody likes hangin' with Plumpy. 7c. Additionally, there is a bonus we're calling the Slot Machine Bonus, because I never rolled one in testing, and I'm interested to see if it comes up again. If, as in a slot machine that comes up 777, the three members of a team all roll the same number on a single turn, that value is doubled for those three players. If that happens to be on a turn where your team has used a Joker, those bonuses will stack, allowing you to move up to 48 squares in a single, ridiculous move. 7d. Furthermore and finally, as if all that were not enough, there is one further bonus. 7d.a. Look carefully at this collection of dice:  7d.b. These are 40 unique, individually-colored twelve-sided dice. Each player's die will be drawn from this collection at random each turn. Look now at this individual die from that group of 40:  7d.c. This is the Golden Die. As implied above, there is only one die of this color in the game. Whichever player rolls the golden die automatically doubles the value of their roll for that turn. If that happens to be a player whose team is using a Joker that turn, they individually receive the same 4x bonus as if they landed the Slot Machine Bonus with a Joker. Similarly, the player with a golden die on a team that rolls the Slot Machine Bonus individually receives a 4x bonus. 7d.d. If, somehow, a player whose team rolls a Joker Slot Machine Bonus happens to be using the Golden Die at the time, their entire team moves a full eight times the number of squares marked on the dice. A Golden Joker Slot Machine Bonus for 12 would result in a team moving a full 96 squares in a single turn. Which would be hilarious.  8. This is Rosemary. Rosemary is majestically fluffy. Rosemary is also kind of dumb, because like all cats, she has a brain approximately the size of a walnut. Rosemary likes sitting on things. There is a very good chance she will sit on the game board at some point during this competition. 8a. If Rosemary sits on the board and dislodges pieces or even knocks them to the carpet, the piece will be placed on the board on the nearest available valid square. This may be a help (if the piece moves towards the window) or a hindrance (if the piece moves towards the kitchen.) 8b. The Rosemary Rule applies equally to Meyer, who is smarter than Rosemary, but still not that smart. 9. There will be some setup time between recruiting all seven teams and actually beginning play while playing pieces are constructed. This should not exceed a day or two at most. 10. This game will be conducted in two phases. More information will be provided when the first phase is complete. 11. Posting "didn't read rules/thread" or some variation thereof when you attempt to sign up ensures you will not be assigned a team. If this has happened to you, you will have to apologize for your arrogance and ignorance in-thread to be assigned a team before they are all full if you expect to play. Also, naturally, you'll have to read the rules to see this rule. 12. Posting either the yarg or gary emote is a real bad idea. 12. If you do not talk poo poo about your opponents, you are probably boring. Don't be boring. 13. We know this game is broken as hell, just roll with it. Rules are, of course, subject to change if they are preventing the game from completing in a reasonable manner. TEAMS   TEAM CHARITY 1. MMM Whatchya Say 2. Alasdair Crawfish 3.

Preparations. Okay, let's get to work.  Hi, Rosie. So, let's get some tunes up while I work on this. What's seventies-ish (like this game) and features a ton of stories about people on the wrong side of morals and luck in life (like this game)? Keeping it to a theme, you see.  Perfect.  So, let me just make it clear, trying to clip the sharp ends of bamboo skewers generally results in flying shards of bamboo. Unfun.  Then we glue the sticks to blank paper to give a sturdy foundation for the avatars to hang from. Takes loving forever, though. First record's done, what's seventies-ish and features people relentlessly loving each other over and then succeeding based on bragging about it?  Yes.  Alright, glue's done. Now to wait for that to dry, and I can start on the bases. hexwren fucked around with this message at 02:00 on Dec 31, 2016 |

So, further assembly.   bowmore posted:plan post picture of your stereo  A basic Stanton direct-drive platter (it was the least expensive direct drive I could get at the time because gently caress belt drive forever) into a mid-90s Marantz receiver, which is sitting on top of the mid-80s Realistic receiver that looks cooler and has analog controls but stopped putting out sound on the right channel recently into a pair of  Cerwin-Vegas that actually are fancy. And because Station to Station is exceedingly short...eh, gently caress it.  And now these are in the oven. And when they're done, Turn One commences.

SLASHER HAWKE posted:the only thing missing from you collection Wren is an album which inspires good posts Imagine I posted a picture of "Album" by Public Image Ltd. while I had it on earlier because here comes Turn One Ready?  Let's begin.  Team Humility rolls 3, 7 and 11.  Team Temperance rolls 3, 10 and 11.  Team Diligence rolls 3, 7 and 11.  Team Charity rolls 1, 3 and 7.  and Team Patience rolls 1, 10 and 10.  Which means...  poo poo's loving crowded on a few really popular squares. Let's see what Team Chastity brings us:  6, 8 and 12, okay, I can live with that, how about  6-8-8. God drat it. Meanwhile, on square one:   Trip and Asiina take the lead.  And here's how things look come the end of the first turn of the game...   ...in a manner that says to me I need to figure out what the gently caress is up with this camera and it suddenly deciding to not focus on things or use the flash when I say to. MEANWHILE, now that the game has started, you may now play and earn Jokers. Playing a Joker and its effects are in the rules in the OP. To earn more Jokers for your team, you may complete any or all of the following challenges:  And, as indicated, here is an image of the game board, so that you may prepare for Challenge #3.

PMush Perfect posted:It may be difficult to believe, but my cat is the deepest, most platonic embodiment of Patience that has even been born. Of all of God's creatures, there is none greater. No tortoise, shelled and protected. No sloth, mossy and nearly dying every time it poops. It is simply a cat, my cat. And I'm sure this must be excruciating, to wonder why I can speak with such conviction about an animal I have yet to even start describing.  Non-extant pets are not eligible. In fact, rule addendum: photographic evidence of the pet's existence must be posted with the speech. Infinitum posted:To show just how loving terrible this entry is, I already drew my entry BEFORE the contest was even announced How is that a snake? You might as well tell me it's your drain person. Meinberg posted:So, let's talk about my recent pet. He's a gorgeous kitty that I've decided to name Blaze It, because he can shoot mad fire. But if you think about that, isn't that the great gift of all? He gives that gift of fire to all I meet, and some of the critters we come across that they decide to join my merry band for an adventure all over the islands! The gifts that he gives are so special and thoughtful, tailor made for each person we come across, be they preschoolers or grown adults trying to beat up school kids for their money in a blood-rage fueled frenzy. And through it all, Blaze It just gives fire after fire. That's not a cat, that's a professional wrestler.

Turn 2 begins. Here's where we left off.  No cat interventions as of yet.  The rolls for this turn, and...wait a minute.   It begins.   And bowmore breaks free from the pack.  chaoslord is too busy thinking about mowing the lawn to be anything but chaste. And so, with chores done, it is off to the circus.   Podima posted:Here is my take on Space 16, deep in study of the one true language:  But it's interesting that you bring up square 16.  Because you and Anon landed there.   and are made to be your own confederacy of dunces.  Meanwhile, pera and Moat have cared for the strange leopard-spotted hound of these bizarre 1970s and advanced upon doing so.   And out in front, Trip...   Has gone skating on the thin ice of modern life, leaving Asiina in the lead.  So, with everyone moved, let's see whose moral compass is pointed in the right direction, and whose is merely spinning in circles: Bringing up the rear, it's Infinitum, Alasdair, Pods, all of Team Diligence---Anon, UnCO3 and nazz---with EXAKT, BK and Gulag rounding the first corner.  Slasher, Keane and Meinberg are coming back along row two.  With PMush, AR and Krunge taking the second corner.  Trip and bowmore are neck and neck with one's bonus and the other's penalty.  CL is enjoying the Loneliness Carnival.  And out in front, it's Asii, pera and Moat.  The board now looks like this. A bit easier to parse than it was last turn.  You may now return to shitposting.

Meanwhile, Moat grabs hold of second place.   As it's slipped away from Asiina.   So how's it look right now?  Hawke and BK in the rear, Infinitum dragging his feet...nazz, Anon & Gulag getting into it, and Pods trying to get somewhere after the initial setback.  EXAKT and Keane loitering in the late teens...  Alasdair and Asiina in the middle twenties.  AR and UnCO passing the circus...  ...while bowmore, chaoslord, Meinberg, PMush and peramene try to get up into podium position.  Meanwhile, Trip, Moat and Krunge lead the way.

Krunge posted:I'd like to point out that the OP found what I said very helpful. I'd like to point out that YOUR MOM. Turn Five. Here's where we left off. Looks like someone's been snooping around. Anon's dislodged and Moat's fallen over. No change in position, though.  The dice.  Looks like a lot of teams are really close to landing that slot-machine bonus.     But not close enough. Let's check on some of the frontrunners, both these and those posted above:   Well.  Moatillata has been deemed the most moral amongst you. But do not be dismayed. We have not even finished the first phase of the game, yet. Now, we see which team is the most morally-aligned. Waitaminute, that's not right. Look at that picture again:   That's more like it. And, waitaminute, what did PMush roll, there?  24. 63 plus 24 is...  ...eighty-seven.  We'll see what happens to her in a moment. Meanwhile, Team Chastity can't keep their loving grubby little hands off the good china.  Absurd Revolver seems a good candidate for Team Gluttony, if there were such a thing, with this move here:  Following up breakfast last turn, it's time for an entire box of chocolates. And a wardrobe change to dress and knee socks, but that's beside the point.  Now, then, PMush...  ...done hosed up, as they say.  As did chaoslord.  But not as bad as AR, back on square 11.  So here's where we are after five turns.  Moatillata greets the dawn like a rooster, springs up and is just constantly nice to everyone and everything around him until it is time to sleep. Or something like that, I don't know poo poo about waking up at dawn.  Krunge looks to give Team Patience a foothold in the team competition, while UnCO, Alasdair and Trip remain in close pursuit.  Some distance behind, two-thirds of Team Kindness push past the halfway point, with Asiina lurking close behind.  And then there's Meinberg.  And BK. And I remember that this camera turns off macro focus whenever I turn it off and I have to turn it on again.  Inf and EXAKT are neck-and-neck.  Pods is not.  But Gulag and Anon are.  PMush is, surprisingly, not in last place.  Not with pera, nazz, HAWKE and CL looking at the low twenties.  Or with AR bringing up the rear.  But speaking of bringing up the rear...  Every single one of you that's posted less than me in this thread is really bad at shitposting. You may want to work on that or be branded loser lurker scum for the rest of your days. You may now return to shitposting.

Before I go on, I will first say that I have not properly participated in this game thus far. Far too many have not been properly verbally thrashed to call myself a true shittalker, and I must step up my game, as to best honor the man, nay, the legend that I am here to present to you. And Team Kindness chimes in for the first time this game to earn themselves a Joker. Fantastic. ....wait a second. quote:a viscous coyote you've been hanging out on furaffinity too much my good man In the meantime, we go to the board.

Moatillata posted:You have now gained +1 Karmic Points! No fake day actions. In the meantime, posts containing moves will, until further notice, consist of more than one move if the initial move does not result in at least one player reaching square 100. There are many things left to do, and little time to waste. Turn Six. Picking up from here:  You're breaking my heart with how no-one's landing the slot machine. This time around, FIVE teams got matching digits but failed to land all three.     Infinitum draws the golden die and zips ahead, putting Humility in contention for possibly the first time.  But Krunge puts Patience on the board.   But Patience's Joker play results in disaster further down the path:  Which we'll see the grim results of later. Meanwhile, EXAKT pulls past the midway point...  ...just barely.  Juuuuuuuust barely.  AR makes up for his gluttony with some animal care:   While Asiina takes the long tumble.   But...   So did Keane. So here's how it stands after six.  Alasdair, Trip and UnCO lead the pack at the moment, and I'm going to write out the current running order because gently caress trying to make this  visually legible. 1. Alasdair 2. Trip 3. UnCO 4. bowmore 5. Infinitum 6. Meinberg 7. EXAKT 8. Absurd 9. HAWKE 10. Pods 11. Anon 12. PMush (tie) 12. nazz (tie) 14. chaoslord 15. Gulag 16. pera 17. Asiina (tie) 17. Keane (tie)  2/21 players have completed the climb. 0/7 teams have completed the climb. You may now return to shitposting.

AnonymousNarcotics posted:I'm just gonna put a ##joker into every post jic Closer to doable. But I might start deducting the number of Jokers called for (you can only have one active on a turn.) Absurd Revolver posted:I hereby submit my Song of Kindness That...uh. Close enough. I probably should call a strike on that one since it's a person saying they're good and kind but not actually being so. Morals aren't ironic. But I'm lazy. Absurd Revolver posted:While I'm at it, here's a snek Okay.  And now I go to the board.

Turn 7. redneck nazgul has been replaced by dongsbot9000.    Close enough.  Let's see what's happening at the top of the board.    Bad times for Team Charity.   Better times for Team Patience.   And pretty good times for Team Chastity. But...much like good times for Team Chastity would imply, nobody scored.  Here's how we stand after 7. Turn Eight. Because it would be unfair to combine turns and just not use your somewhat-unreasonable stockpiles of Jokers, I've considered that every team that used one in turn seven would use one in turn eight. Except that Team Humility doesn't have any.   In the meantime, let's check in with Team Diligence.   Nice.  Not as nice for Asiina, though.  Or for BK.   And then...  EXAKT just can't stay away from the loving cookies.  So with UnCO safely across the line, here's what we've got.  Trip up front.  Inf, Meinberg and Hawke closing in.  bowmore, CL, AR, Anon and PMush about three-quarters of the way in.  Then  BK and Pods lurking just past the halfway point.  Gulag and Asiina a few squares back.  Keane, Alasdair, peramene and EXAKT bringing up the rear.  3/21 players have completed the climb. 0/7 teams have completed the climb. You may now return to shitposting.

Turn 9. A fairly quiet turn as these things go. However, interesting things happened. Here's the board. Still no cat incidents, surprisingly enough.   And we get our first Slot Machine Bonus of the game. Unfortunately, Humility was unable to capitalize on it, having no Jokers...  ...and with the golden die landing in Kindness's portion of the sheet.    bowmore has completed the climb to 100. Meanwhile,  Trip and Infinitum get the wrong idea about "pulling tail"   And stumble at the final hurdle. Everybody else moves to one neutral space or another.   Resulting in this clusterfuck of traffic.  Things are pretty open on the east side, though.   4/21 players have completed the climb. 0/7 teams have completed the climb. You may now return to shitposting. The next turn will be drawn sooner, rather than later.
