Talk out of character and ask any questions here.

Well, first roll went pretty well.

Totally, that is gonna be some good ass coffee!

Well when you can't make good coffee throw someone else under the bus I guess.

@ handle
Actually curious how we'll deal with Stress Explosion since it's play by post. Damage that transfers over for Stress Explosion is usually X Damage = X minutes. How are you going to deal with it for PbP?

I changed it from minutes to half-days, so like if you have an overflow of 6 stress it'll be 3 days of the explosion.

If it doesn't really work then I'll change it to something else.

I know what you're all thinking. Did I just stack another random event onto the pile?

Yes. Yes I did.

Go ahead and roll 2d6 for the random event table.

:0

Also, if you are at a loss at what to do just look at the daily schedule in the 'Hotel Tour' thread. Yay, activities.

oh boy oh boy what's gonna happen

Let's see, 61 is...

"Caught a glimpse of the master's..."

= w=;;

Well it should be easy to work in, he's about to take a shower after the gym.

Looooong post. Tell me if I forgot or overlooked something and I will address it.

Anyone having fun? Ahem, I mean: anyone having *~ F U N ~* yet? It's my first time runnin this game, and it seems pretty good if everyone is in to the campy anime style.

Shoot. I forgot the Affection roll from Roguelike. I am supposed to respond to that right?

I'm actually not super clear on how affection/cunning/etc. works in the context of interacting with other PCs. Figured I'd give it a shot and find out.

You guy's aren't really competing over anything, so Kohaku does not need to make a counter-roll for Saki's affection. If you want to flatter another maid you'll have to role-play it.

The closest thing to using affection on another player would be the optional seduction rules. One player uses affection/cunning in attempt to seduce someone, and the defender rolls their affection/cunning in response. However, we're not doing the whole seduction thing because it makes everything complicated.

Roguelike, here's your item. Looks like you just have to read a letter to yourself (or out loud) and you'll stop yourself from having a stress explosion. Since we can't actually 'give a speech', just write more than 3 or sentences.

Roguelike, here's your item.



Our 'session' is gonna be pretty long, so your limit on using it will be once a week. A seduction roll works like this: The seducer makes their cunning/affection roll against their target's. The seducer takes stress if they lose, plus the target is not seduced. If the seducer wins, then the target is seduced and there are some nifty benefits for both parties.



Basically: when seduced, the target wants to get favor from the person they like. The seducer gets to give out favor and orders to the seduced players.

@Remnant, I saw your post, and I think Saki will want some dialogue on the way, but I won't get around to writing one until later today.:/

No worries, if your east coast watch out for that weather (Groundhog you're wrong this is not early spring!).

Oh god, that is so thematically appropriate for a gift from a bunch of demons.

"She's upset that her chastity was threatened, what should we do?"
"Well, I could jam this imp into a teddy bear and make it ensnare the minds of those who oppose her."
"PERFECT!"

I've got to complete a research paper for my class, so I won't be able to post as frequently for the next week. Yay, higher education!

I think we all need to remember something about the rules of MAID-- you can roll anything with any stat, so long as you justify it. Fighting a monster can be athletics, skill, luck, affection, or cunning. Any action is any stat.

Yep, unless it doesn't make sense or the GM tells you to roll something specific.

Again, sorry for the lack of updates! Real life and stuff getting in the way. Should have something by the end of the week.

I'm curious how this is going to turn out.

I'm givin some time for you guys to do any last minute things before I layout everything. Also, I should finish my final by today, wooooo

Alright, I survived. Back to business as normal, I missed playing this game!

So how do we RPS again?

Roll a 1d3, 1 = Rock, 2 = Paper, 3 = Scissors!

A roll of 54 on the fantasy table = "The master drinks a potion that switches genders".

What a tweeeest.

It looks as though interest in this game has dried up. Still, it was fun while it lasted. This was my first PbP game, so I learned a lot about how to run a game like this - next time I'll make it shorter!

I'm gonna set the game to 'Retired', you are all welcome to join my future games!

I'm still interested just need to write something up. Going to try and get something up over the weekend.

It's been bit of time and it looks like we lost two players, so I'll retire the game. But before that we can have some fun with wrapping up the story, I don't just wanna cut things off.

So the story will end very shortly, but hope you guys had fun playing!

handle, I want to thank you for running a very entertaining game. I apologize for being unable to keep up with posting regularly. For me, timing was such that my job went full time a week after joining the game and got overwhelmed quickly. I would have liked to get back on track with it and play more. But I had fun, and the work you put into it is much appreciated.

Out of curiosity are we still playing? Akita unlocked an achieve also I think.

Yeah we are, I was just giving time for people to respond before I posted, but it looks lke it's just you and me? :P

We will have one big fight scene before it ends.

Aw, thanks. Sadly, not every game can survive in this harsh world. Hopefully we can play again in the future!

Dumb question were we going to finish this? I'm assuming Akita wins. Xq

Urk, yeah Akita wins. Sorry, I completely lost my motivation and this game got put on the back burner. Like waaaaaaaaaay in the back. I'll make sure to write an ending scene soon. :D

//Handle

No worries in the very least I had fun with Akita the Stalker.
