Byzantium

Rules:
-Each team is dealt a hand of four cards. Each card has a point value between 1 and 10 and an attack.

-Each team will pick one card to play, and their first, second, and third choice of which team for the card to be played on.

-There is a 12 point limit on what cards will actually be accepted. Cards with higher values will be accepted first. After 12, the only cards that will be accepted are one with a matching point value. (e.g. if the highest card submitted is an 8, it will be accepted. If the next highest card submitted is a 7, and three 7s are submitted, all 7s will be accepted, but nothing lower than a 7 will be accepted).

-Only cards which are accepted will have their attacks carried out.

-Teams that have their cards accepted are protected from the attacks of other teams. If a team's first choice is protected, the card goes to their second choice.

-Teams whose cards go through also will not have to participate in the possible second round, should the game require one.



[You find that once the robot has moved away you cannot see or hear the other teams.

Your robot hands you four large, heavy stock cardboard cards, each with a point value and attack on it. You also get a black card, and a sharpie to write your choices on.]

C-can we just hold on a minute and talk about this like rational people?!

The higher the number, the better the chance that ours is selected and we are protected from others.

You're talking about cutting off someone's arm...!

No. I am talking about keeping our team safe.

That is all that matters to me.

(Is that a trick question?!)

Yes! Look, I'll take whatever we get hit with! Then the team is still safe!

We cannot be sure of that.

You mean we might not get to choose which of us is the target?
hyanaimne: Blood-stained. (Agarwaen.)

[personal profile] hyanaimne 2013-02-23 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Would they be that kind? No.

And what if we are hit with more than one card? You cannot take it all. Nor will we allow it.

[personal profile] rewrightable 2013-02-23 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
Why don't we ask? That would at least clarify the first part for us.

Even if the choice is ours to make, we will not allow you to take all of the damage for us.

[personal profile] rewrightable 2013-02-23 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
W-well... since everyone else wants the high card, if we went with a lower one, it would only be fair for me to take responsibility.

[personal profile] hyanaimne 2013-02-23 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
[scoffs]

We need to choose the highest card, for our safety. That is our priority. Choosing the low one will only put us in danger.

[personal profile] rewrightable 2013-02-23 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
Will it? If we play like that in games, doesn't that just earn us a poor reputation? People might target us more often.

It is only a fool who would say that without considering the consequences.

Okay, maybe I didn't consider them, but I can't just go along with the other option!

Goddammit. Look. I know you haven't been here for that long, Phoenix, but to even imply that we would let you take one for the team or whatever the hell it is you want to do is fucked up.

That doesn't make it any less fucked up. None of us want to watch you get hurt in front of us, especially when there is a way for us to potentially prevent it.

[personal profile] rewrightable 2013-02-23 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
Well, honestly, I don't want to be hurt either, but I can't let someone else deal with the results of my decision.
