Rody barely wins the fight, but then rolls a 2 and dies of imaginary nom poisoning!

[Hahahahahahahaha!]

[Wouldn't a "nomer" be the one who is doing the "noming," and the "nomee" being the one who is "nommed?" That's how I read it literally. The suffix "-er" is a noun that does a verb. Therefore, as per Warhead's wording of the rule, the creature not the player would have to make the save against nom poisoning, no?]

Well, my psychotic rage just went up a notch.

@IVHorseman, take two more steps back. It still counts.

[If Warhead and others, wrote rules that were more clear there wouldnt be any problems ]

[When nomed the nomer (anything, player or creature) must make an allergic nom-poisoning test (4+ on a D6) if failed the nomer (this includes a player who just nomed a creature) succumbs and dies, remove from play. ]

[Warhead managed to write a rule that killed himself]

[Even if it meant the opposite, it would have no effect on the game state since there is an unlimited number of creatures]

Rody is wearing a nice fedora and smoking my new pipe, rest is still the birthday suit

He proposes that at an for now unknown location there is a pharmacy selling nom antidote that renders the player using it immune against nom poisoning for 1d6 turns.
Antidotes can only be purchased at this location, and it costs $100.

Orders: Rody wants to move towards the nearest brain and attack the person owning it if possible.

This is basically the situation. I had to read back through the rules carefully when I was applying it, and I decided "When a creature is defeated, the player has consumed the naughty food item" counted as noming. If there wasn't anything about consuming creatures, players would be fine, and the only one in danger would be Blitzen since she causes you to lose a nom and there are not an infinite number of her or her rule. I'm sure she won't last much longer, unless somebody makes a rule specifically protecting her.

Rule; blitzens are a protected species and killing and eating of one results in being told off and being sent to the naugty corner.

orders, buy "GO".

[a rule preventing that you eat blitzens wouldn't logically mean that they can't get nom poisoning right? I mean they can still nom players and maybe catch the poison from them...]
[also where is this naughty corner? we might be tempted to kill and eat.]

Wearing: a Green hazard bandanna

Rule
The rule about nom poisoning is deleted.

[If we keep it all the players will die from creature victories or victories vs zombies. The living vs zombie exchange rate favors everyone becoming zombies and having no reason to play since they can't own anything. They will just shamble around the Gocialism space waiting for a new player to nom. "Hail comrade Tzanski the creator of Gocialism!", is what the zombies would say if they could talk.]

Move Back 2 spaces to space 15
Gain max health nom

[Nuts! There goes my last bid at game domination from the grave, I almost gotcha' too.]

[Well, people who get nom poisoned are "removed from game" until a rule is made to put them back in the game, they aren't able to make new rules, as they aren't part of the game.]

OneEye589 is wearing nothing but some funkadelic boxers.

He is proposing the new rule that the player named "OneEye589" is the Gatekeeper to the land of ONTOLOGICAL LIMBO.

He is staying put and doing nothing on space 15.

[Zombies only move is to become living again anyway. Which they still can do, with the new rule. Hard to dominate the game when everyone is dead. ]

[If someone wants to reinstate nom-poisoning they can, I wont delete it again. I have a plan for that.]

[soo.... is this still going on?..]

Post by **stubby** » Sun Jan 10, 2010 3:27 pm

Sorry, I was away on vacation, I should have warned you. Just getting everything back together now.

Although... if someone wants to propose some aterations so others can keep the game going when I'm not around, I sure wouldn't mind.

I'm working on changing the board to use a table instead of a photoshop file so it'll be easier to edit.
