Event: Wheel of Misfortune

[avibusraris]

WHEEL OF MISFORTUNE


[ After the morning announcements, something exciting happens! Yes, yes, yes-- there's flashing lights, a live studio audience..! And a rather infamous wheel that made its name into gameshow history center stage next to a large holographic board with a green backs and white blanks on the board. As the first group of inmates are escorted to their positions behind their score podiums, the crowd simultaneously chants "WHEEL... OF... MISFORTUNE!" oh-so-cheerfully!

That's when the famous Deadman Wonderland announcer speaks up... ]

Ladies, gentlemen, and all those kind enough to join us tonight: The President aaaand The Director!

[ The twins walk out onto the stage together, the Director dressed in a crisp suit and the President in a nice dress, though her hair is down as always. They literally look like they could be hosting the Wheel of Fortune TV show-- except the Director heads over to the board while the President heads near the contestants. ]

Hi everyone, I'm the President. If you're unfamiliar with the game, each pair gets to guess one letter per spin. You can only guess consonants for free, vowels cost a price. You can solve the puzzle early if you know the answer to end the game, but you will cut off chances for more CP if you do that. If the letter you guess isn't in the puzzle, the next pair gets to play. Each pair can split the CP they earn here at the end of the game.

[ She yawns for a moment, glancing over at the Director. They have some kind of weird non-verbal communication, then she turns back. ]

Let's introduce our first players...

{{ OOC: There will be individual threads for each game! Each game will have one pair threading with the President at a time. When the pair changes, the President's subject line will change with the name of the next pair up! I will also try to remind the players in each pair when it changes. There will be individual threads for each game. Do decide which pair goes first, each pair needs to reply to the President's first comment with a number 1-10. Whoever gets the number or gets closest will be the first pair to go first. One number per pair, whichever character within the pair replies first represents the pair.

Please use this if you need reference for what your character can see on the wheel as they spin it, but all spins will be RNG'd by a mod for fairness! Any special cards will be explained ICly as they appear in-game.

Three.

JOHN+LEVI

[deeplove]

The number was 9. John and Levi are up first. The category is "Around the House."



Spin, buy a vowel, or solve?

[captainapathetic]

[ a brief pause and he spins ]

Y.

[starcharted]

[ John raised his eyebrows. That was a strange choice to make. ]

SATORI + NONON

[deeplove]

[ The wheel lands on 40,000CP. However, the buzzer goes off as soon as he says his letter. ]

No Y, which means it's Satori and Nonon's turn. Do you two want to spin, buy a vowel, or solve?

[symphonyregalia]

I...I guess spin.

[deeplove]

Bankrupt... Sorry to say, but you both have 10 seconds to pick one of you. First name said goes.

[openedeyes]

Satori.

[...personally, she figures she knows what's coming. She's not in a very optimistic mood at the moment.]

[deeplove]

That was a quick volunteer. Sorry about this.

[ After a couple of seconds, the guard comes over and starts tying her wrists up. This definitely isn't the President's style, but it's showy and that's what they said they had to do. Once Satori's wrists are tied up, the ends of the ropes are tied around pulleys and she'll be pulled up above the podiums and slowly have her limbs pulled in separate directions. ]

[openedeyes]

[...well. That's not what she expected. Though, well, she guessed that it was going to be some kind of torture. She'll apologize to Koishi later.

Oops.]

[deeplove]

Nonon, you can continue. Spin or do something, I don't care.

[ She's totally paying no attention to Satori's plight as they keep getting pulled until her limbs pop right off in a spray of blood. ]
