Alright, kiddos!! Gather up in the cafeteria for your first event!

[ The cafeteria tables are arranged differently now, long tables pushed to the edges of the room and filled with finger foods and drinks, and the center of the room open except for a bunch of tall, small round tables which are empty except for a stack of cards, but about the right size and height for two people to put drinks on as they stand around.

Vanilla is also standing on one of the tables with a bullhorn. ]


We're starting with a classic! Speed dating! You'll have five minutes each round! When the horn goes off, that's your cue to switch it up and talk to someone else! If you need some conversation starters, try one of the questions on those cards!

...Or don't! You can do whatever you want, I'm not your mom. I'm going with 'uncle' for now!

( The structure here is pretty casual:
- Make a top level
- Tag some people! Optionally, start off with a question from the deck of suggestions!
- Thread! You can ask more questions if you want.
- Try to keep threads around 10 comments from you maximum. This isn’t a hard limit, but assume a bullhorn goes off around there to signal a switch.
- Pace yourself, kids, this runs until Thursday. )

SUBMIT YOUR HOT OR NOTS HERE by Thursday, 6pm PST!

At some point during the day while you're getting settled into your dorm room, you might notice a rose and a chocolate left on your pillow. How thoughtful!

...If you pick the chocolate up, under it there appears to be a condom as well. How... thoughtful...

(General post for any other day 1 shenanigans and continuations if the first post hits captcha. Speed dating mingle event will be up around 6PM PST!)

[ Maybe you were going about your business and blacked out, maybe you were dead. Either way, when you come to, you are in what looks like the entrance hall to a school, except for the very well secured front door. Before you can really get your bearings, a voice rings out on an the intercom. ]

Welcome, kiddos! —How does that sound? 'Kiddos'? Too daddy kink? Eh, let's go with it for now. Anyway, welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime chance at romance and passion, with fabulous prizes! Find love beyond the boundaries of time and space! Original concept, do not steal.

Pick up your tablets and get settled in! A little later today, we'll have our first heart-pounding get-to-know-you event!

—Oh, also, no violence allowed! I know some of you kids are into the murder thing, but that's not the kind of game we're running here.

[ In fact, there are several boxes of electronic tablets around the room. When you pick one up, it displays the gameplay and rules.]

Premise


Can you make a knock-off of a knock-off? Or maybe it's just an extension of the theme? Either way, the setting of Nope's Peak returns... as a non-violent dating game.

You're still locked in a creepy school, though.

There is full game info now!

Mechanics


Each week, players will submit their character's rating for everyone in the game - HOT, NOT, or NO OPINION. These ratings will then be used to match characters for dates.
  • HOT-HOT pairings have priority.

  • If there is no available HOT-HOT date for a character, HOT-NO OPINION matches will be made.

  • NO OPINION-NO OPINION, HOT-NOT, NO OPINION-NOT, and NOT-NOT will not form matches.

Characters who do not have an assigned date are up for potential elimination. Immediately after dates are assigned, the list of elimination candidates will go up. Everyone in the game votes to eliminate, and the top two voted characters will be removed from the game and sent to a romantic getaway to try and get a little better at dating.

Characters who do have a date have one week to thread it out. Along with their hot or nots for the next week, each player will submit a rating of their character's opinion of the date from 1-10. Each character has a score which is the accumulation of the ratings they've gotten on all of their dates; however they can only get points from a character once. Characters can date the same person more than once, but the second time on will not affect their score. For this reason, we will try to match people who haven't been on a date together yet, but you may still be matched a second time if there are no other options (since at least you're safe from elimination that way).

Note that the ratings are an OOC assessment. ICly, your characters will be paired/scored based on ~apparent chemistry~.

The game will end after six possible dates, regardless of how many characters are left in the game. Though there may be an opportunity for bonus points at the end...

Any character who is still in the game at the end will receive the ability to freely travel between two universes of their choice! The top three scorers will also receive:
1st: 1 million dollars
2nd: 250 thousand dollars
3rd: 100 thousand dollars
... or an item of equivalent personal value as those would be to someone who cares about money. Lifetime supply of your favorite meal? Sure. Assume they were offered something good.

Schedule


The game will run for seven weeks, from 2/15 to approximately 4/5.

Thursday
- Your rating of the previous week's date and your hot-or-nots for the next week's date must be in by Thursday, 6pm PST.
- Date assignments will be out by approximately 9pm PST, and you can start threading your date together in private at any point.
- A post will also go up around that time with the list of dateless people eligible to be voted out in elimination.
Sunday
- Elimination votes are due by Sunday, 10am PST
- The week's mingle event will go up shortly after.

ICly, it alternates between "elimination day" (Friday-Sunday) and "mingle day". (Sunday-Thursday). Dates ICly happen sometime on elimination day, although they can be threaded all week.

Signups


Game start is tentatively scheduled for 2/15. Signups must be in by 6pm PST, Wednesday 2/14.

Who can play
This is invite-only for people on XL ([plurk.com profile] misailury) or Vector ([plurk.com profile] vectorspace)'s plurk timelines. Said people can also invite one more player each as a +1. People who were in Nope's Peak before are good too even without an invite.

What characters are allowed
Must be a fictional character from a published canon of some sort. Characters who were previously in Nope's Peak can carry over their experiences, but otherwise CRAU is not allowed. Also, don't app someone who it would be creepy to have date a teenager. I'm not going to set a hard age range, but please be reasonable.

Currently you may bring one character, but we may allow seconds if it doesn't fill up.

Character Limit
Currently we are allowing a limit of 40 characters.

To sign up, fill out this form and comment to this post:


Once you've signed up, please join the Discord, follow [plurk.com profile] murderparty, and choose an Ultimate talent!

[In the control room, the raccoons float quietly in their pods; none of the wild cackling from before, no raucous mocking—Where did those pesky animatronics go, anyway? Maybe not every question has been answered, but...how much does it matter? The lost souls are back, tangible and whole, though marked still by whatever's done them in. Maybe those scars and aches won't fade, either.

A metric fuckton of experimenting has gotten us to the answer of how to get back to where we belong: the first control room console makes it easy to find the thumbnail of your world, and, when selected, it automatically brings you to twenty two days from moment you were kidnapped from. It's easy to see an image where you should be there and aren't, and simply select it. The program confirms that you'd like to initiate the transport process, and directs you to stand on the glowing platform; have someone hit the button to shut the process down, or it will time itself out in five minutes.

Is the moment you were brought from not good enough? What about the rewards you were promised? It seems as though specifying those offers or threads isn't quite possible, but the console has two options, each manipulable independently of each other: you can control the date and time, allowing yourself to return as though you hadn't been kidnapped at all. You can also use a slider at the bottom to control the quality of the universe you're brought back to, sliding from the carrot to the stick side: A world where everything that possibly could have gone right for you and those you'd want it for does, where every choice and chance resolves in your favor...or one where there isn't a single moment that isn't conspiring to work against you.

It should be that simple, but...none of those are your universes. Trying to go to any universe but the one marked for you, and/or at any point but that three-week span you've been gone, prompts a warning message about a duplicate version of anyone belonging to that world. It asks if you'd like to proceed, and warns you once more by giving names of potential "doppelgangers"—but will not stop you from stepping onto the platform as it twinkles blue light, regardless. Is improvement worth interfering, maybe destroying, the life of another you?

That choice is up to you. For the first time in a long time, these choices are yours.

It's over. Happy graduation day.]

[So we sure the fuck are still here.

No one's heard anything from the raccoons since their last cackling announcement, though... Some areas have seen some changes, even besides the still-smoldering second library (looks like it was just allowed to burn itself out... the blood in the hall hasn't been cleaned out, geez), but there's been silence over the speakers and not head nor hide of any of our favorite animatronics.

Spooky.]

[After a grisly execution, eight remain alive.]

FINALLY, we have some winners! Kaiba, Mae, and Minako can now claim their carrots, dismiss their sticks, and retire from the game, which means that there are only four players left! Congratulations!

[Canned noisemaker sounds and a confetti effect on the tablets. Finally, the nightmare is over... or so the particularly optimistic or desperate among you might think. But when the intercom starts playing nothing but obnoxious raccoon laughter that goes on for about five minutes straight, those hopes may seem a bit more distant. Finally, they calm down enough to continue their announcement:]

As we were saying, four players left! Which means...



You dumbasses! You total shit-for-brains morons! Did you even read the rules? You win the game when there are ten remaining! Ten!! How are you supposed to get to ten now when you only have like two thirds that many players? You’re so stupid! Learn to math, dipfucks!

[More laughter ensues.]

Anywho, we haven't forgotten we still owe you guys for catching all those killers, so you can have an entire week off with no killing nights at all! Winners, you're free to hang out during this time — have a vacation! We insist.

Meanwhile, we’re gonna help you out by bringing in some more contestants! Kick back and relax while we go find you some new friends!

Or... maybe some old ones?

[The raccoons continue to laugh until the transmission cuts out.]

[As is about standard fare around here, the tablets come to life the next morning with the regular notification that they'll have to vote for someone today for tomorrow's execution. The bodies have been cleaned up by now, and the library is no longer flooded. The cat piano remains, unfortunately.

The tablets also display this ecard to everyone, dubious image quality and all, only the raccoons have photoshopped Will Graham's face onto it, except they picked a picture where he was in the middle of sneezing?? All victories must come at a cost. Anyone who tries to jump the gun and vote on their tablets will notice that Will is no longer a voting option. Guess we're gonna have to work together to pick a recent murderer this time!!! Boooooo.]

[Only 13 remain, and the killing night is coming.]

[The tablet has a few things it would like to tell you:

1. Since the snitch already let the cat out of the bag, we'll confirm that Akira Kurusu's prize will be granted at the end of the game. He had a special deal because we thought it would be hilarious if he killed somebody (we were right)! So when all this is over, we'll bring everybody back to life and send them wherever they ask to go.

2. But, hmm, we didn't really mention how we'd bring them back, did we? Or in what state? Or how many legs they would have? Might still be worth your while to live to the end! Just sayin'!

3. Also, that sweet deal is no longer up for grabs: If you want your carrot, you have to kill AND you have to avoid the following execution.

4. But don't worry! We'll remove sticks for anyone who kills OR dies OR makes six friends, without further conditions. We're so generous!

[That is, indeed, Raquelle's voice coming over the loudspeakers all up and down the school, a cheerful sing-song of nothing but pure delight. She spends a good few moments cackling, thrilled as can be.]

Wow, wow, you really went hard on this one, didn't you guys?! I was at the edge of my seat! I didn't know what would happen next! Nyehehehehe! Are you proud? You should be, you should be! Ahh, this is the dream of any teacher, isn't it!

[hey raquelle shut the fuck up and tell us who's getting executed???]

Nyehehe, lucky, lucky us! ...Lucky me, Tycoon's still causing problems.

[she's doing this on purpose.

ANOTHER FEW SECONDS OF CACKLING]

Anyway! Here are the resuuuuuults!

[And as promised, the results of the vote appear on everyone's tablets, slowly fading into view on the screen:]

RESULTS:
Will: 1
Rin: 1
Goro: 1
Seto: 2
Hiyori: 4
Akira: 7


So tomorrow we'll be executing our lucky-lucky winner Akira, and also Ichigo, for breaking chillaxin' rule number four.

Have a good night, you ba—shit, right—Uh! Sleep tiiiiiight.

[Most of the flooding has been stopped as well, though it's uncomfortably damp just about everywhere. Looks like the raccoons only half-assed their cleanup.]

[Speaking of half-assed, where's Tycoon? I mean, broken ones, sure, but has anybody seen him up and about? Looks like you guys might be flying blind this time around...]

Anyway, you're awake now, so, uh, better do something about that.]

((This investigation is going to work a little differently! There are toplevels for each floor. No one is allowed on the fifth floor until someone has tagged on the fourth, but no one is allowed on the fourth floor until someone has tagged on the third, and so on. The basement is excluded from this! Except in the case of the first floor and the kitchen, this does not include the toplevels labelled "INVESTIGATION." There should be some other generic interaction happening under the main top level before anyone tries to go any higher up, or before anyone tries investigating. Also, travel in between floors and rooms is going to be kind of important for reasons very soon to be discovered, so please don't make any assumptions about your character ending up somewhere in the first tag made! Give me an idea of where they're going and I'll set the scene for you. :)

2-3 people per investigation thread, as always, but do what you want for generic interactions.
