True American Sign-up Thread

Things have been a little slow on the Eyes on Final Fantasy front and I think it's time for a game.

The game is True American. The first rule of True American is that you do not talk about the rules of True American. If you know how to play, please do not discuss the rules in this thread! If you don't know how to play and are intrigued, sign up so you can learn! It's just like riding a bike. You either ride or you fall. Into darkness.

I'll be waiting for a minimum of six folks to sign up in order to start the game. I'll leave this thread open through Thursday, October 10th (don't worry about what time, just sign up before then, nerds). If you do sign up, please make yourself available to play until the game ends! Game starts Friday, October 11th.

Some of you might be wondering whether we'll be using either the Alben W. Barkley or the John Quincy Adams rules. Psyche! I'll be up front and tell you right now that neither of those arrangements are on the table and that Eisenhower rules will apply for this game, folks, in honor of his Interstate System, which we be utilizing as our map for the players.

This set of rules puts a spicy twist on the advancement of a player's ability to move. If a player has been involved with the Nacotchtank in any capacity, he is automatically disbanded from any of the Fort Jackson truces he may have made and must to do time out in the off-site Columbus Repertorium, therefore missing two turns and giving up any rights to partake of the Nationalism Chapters.

That's right, folks. Eisenhower rules, so brace yourselves. I'll go right ahead and state that if any of you try and pull a Nixon Nine with these rules, your player will receive a disclassification in the Third Right, because they don't smurfing apply.

Again, you'll learn the rules as we play. Returning members know the drill. Or if you don't have what it takes to be a True American, sit on the sidelines and weep.

(Note: You do not have to be American to play, and in fact, I would deeply encourage all non-Americans to sign up and play to win in order to bring shame to the actual Americans.)

Players:
1. Shorty
2. Laddy
3. Vivi22
4. foa
5. qwertysaur
6. Flying Mullet
7. Silent Warrior
8. Pantz
9. Psychotic
10. noxious.sunshine
11. Quint Eastwood
12. Jinx

I only play Teddy Roosevelt rules, but sign me up anyway.

What game is this?

Depending on how you play, you may have a chance to overrule Eisenhower and incorporate Roosevelt if you so choose.

This is the Rushmore Collaboration game. With Eisenhower rules applied, obviously, as stated above.

Sure, what the hell, I'll sign up.

OK PICK ME FOR A GAME I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT. I knew nothing about Settlers of Catan the first time I played and I SLAUGHTERED EVERYONE.

I'll bite. Just remember that I am a New Yorker. :bigsmile:

If this is like Mornington Crescent I quit now.

I'm not sure to what you are referring to, but don't be like that.

Texas represent!

I... don't... understand one word of the original post.

Oh, whatever. Sign me up! If the invitation is still relevant, of course.
(I'm going to regret this, aren't I?)

I was hoping the OP would answer this but it didn't, so how much time commitment is this going to require?

It depends on how available everyone is to play. We could knock this out Friday, Saturday and Sunday of next weekend if everyone is around. I'd prefer it not to drag on for longer than a week because that's how things like this lose interest.

I have no idea what's going on but I'm feeling brave. Asking me to donate a bunch of time to something on a weekend though? :erm:

I'd be interested if not for the fact that one of the three days just mentioned will be Internetless.

I would like to sign up Loony BoB, Mr. Shauna, Chris, Cuchulainn and Formalhaut for 17.76 people registered. (Cuch has so much Merican potential hidden in him he counts as 1.76 peoples)

Sign-ups will be accepted if you accept responsibility to act as an extension of the players should they not choose to participate.

I don't know if that's a concern for me or them!

(SPOILER)I just found out I will be in and out of pocket this weekend so I'm not too sure how much interneting I will be able to do.

Due to unforseen circumstances interfering with today's schedule, True American will begin tomorrow.

I had never heard of True American before this. I think True American is just this game where Shorty's like, "Sorry, we'll do it tomorrow/next week" and everyone's just like, "Okay". That's the game.

You just violated the first rule of True American.

What the smurf are you two birds talking about?

I win!

Game thread posted here. I have to do some last-minute restructuring of the map and it's past midnight, so it's getting done in the morning.

Mulley, I removed you, but let me know if you want to be added back in.
