Welcome to the new world my fellow pirates! I hope you are all ready for an adventure of your lives!
I am happy to welcome all of you to my crew and you all have the honor to board my biggest ship, Oro Jackson. Because I don't know any of you yet, I want to keep a close eye on you to determine who I can trust and who has what it takes to become the commander of your division. So don't be afraid to challenge each other in battles as soon as the journey begins as only the strongest pirate can lead others.
I also heard a rumor that despite my note in the end, some marines might have taken interest in my recruitment advertisement, so keep your eyes open and throw these imposers overboard! This will be hard enough journey without having the marine headquarters constantly on out trail.
Enjoy the journey and remember, everything is possible at this crazy sea!
You may start to challenge each other as soon as the first round is posted.
Edit: All pms have now been sent! (if you for some reason did not get any pm, let me know and I will send you yours)
wolf pms were sent as soon as I closed sign ups, forgot to mention v.v
Rules for the challenges:
- Challenges need to be announced at the round or hanging within the first 12 hours to give enough time for response
- both participants have to pm their challenge/response to the gm AFTER the challenge has been made public at the round
- The one being challenged can give in without a fight and become the challengers follower (if no choice is made during the same round, will become follower automatically)
- Challenger can’t back down after challenge has been made
- If both decide to fight, results will be posted in next hanging/round and both players will find out each others power
- one person can only challenge or be challenged once during a round/hanging, first come first serve
- The winner of a challenge will go up in rank, and loser will become winners follower
Followers:
o Followers will help their leader in battle
o If the leader is challenged, all followers will always help in fight
o If leader challenges someone, can’t use more followers than the one being challenged has
o If leader loses a battle:
- Followers who fought with him can decide to either stay under their former leader, or become new leaders follower.
- Followers who did not participate in battle, will become solitary players again
o If a leader is eaten, followers will become free again
o Other leaders followers can be challenged and stolen
- Players can form alliances with each other, when neither is a leader but they can help each other in battle to take down someone with followers. Both alliance members need to PM to the gm that they want to form an alliance
Powers:
There is 3 main category powers:
Devil fruit power (wins against normal weapon user)
Normal weapon (wins against seastone weapon user)
Seastone weapon (Wins against Devifruit user)
Everyone will receive a PM from me that tells them what their powers is in this game, and their additional strengths and weaknesses. No one is allowed to reveal their own, their leaders or followers powers at the round. Powers can be revealed in PM's.
You can overcome your weaknesses and develop your power by being active in the game. I will be giving you all activity points based on your activity and the most active people will develop their powers the fastest.
I will list here how I score activity so you can keep track if you want:
1 vote in the poll will give the player 1 point. a Ninja vote won't award any points.
A "Short" post (2~5 lines of text) in the round or hanging will award 0.5 points if it has something to do with the actual game. Troll posts and one line posts will never give any points.
a "normal" post (6~20 lines of text) in the round or hanging will award 1 point. If the post has nothing to do with the game or mini-game no points.
a "long" post (over 20 lines of own text) will award 2 points. If the poster uses quotes and still writes over 20 lines of their own text, 2.5 points will be awarded.
- quote won't be counted as text lines.
- short lines won't be counted as text lines if they could be fitted into one long line, unless at the end of a paragraph.
- after first round, posts that only talk about the mini game, will award only half of the original points.
