Off Topic / March Madness 2013

« on: March 10, 2013, 04:54:58 PM »

The soon to be filled bracket.

(Selection Sunday will be on March 17, 2013.)

The NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship is a single-elimination tournament performed each spring in the United States, featuring 68 college basketball teams, to determine the national championship of the major college basketball teams. The tournament, organized by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), was created during 1939 by the National Association of Basketball Coaches, and was the idea of Ohio State University coach Harold Olsen. Performed mostly during March, it is known informally as March Madness or the Big Dance, and has become one of the most famous annual sporting events in the United States. The NCAA has credited Bob Walsh of the Seattle Organizing Committee for starting the March Madness celebration during 1984.

Forum Games / Blockland Aces: Fires Of Liberation - Mission 3: Sipli Field

« on: January 20, 2013, 10:11:38 AM »

A followup of Gojira's AC4 RP

Welcome, pilot, to the REAF! We need the best of the best of pilots, so use your training and skills. You will start out with an F-16C Fighting Falcon and as you complete missions, you get to choose your plane over time.

Rules

These rules are to keep the roleplay under control. Don't break any of these rules, or else your action will be voided.

I. Do not shoot down any "MiG-(numbergoeshere)". There are no MiG's in AC6. I may lift this rule after the final mission, when we get to the missions that I made up.

II. If you choose to be an enemy (you can), do not powergame when fighting in the skies. Powergaming is when you are God, when you are not. An example is that a missile ALWAYS hits someone no matter what. Sometimes they evade it.

III. If you choose to be an enemy, your first plane is a Sukhoi of your choice. Here are your choices.

IV. Sir Issac Newton once said, "For every action is an equal and opposite reaction". You must follow along with that action if it is something that can affect the battle (for example, reinforcements)

V. Listen to the moderators. _{(when they get here)}

And last of all, have fun!

Advice

To help new players have more fun, I have thought of a bunch of advice to help the newbies.

1. Be detailed with your shoot-downs. Don't go "i shoot down 3 f-14s". Try and make it look detailed. For example: I come from behind of the plane, and fire my machine guns. It hits the fuel tanks and the plane goes down in a black fireball.

2. Don't pretend you always miss the missiles, or machine guns. Try and get your plane damaged once in a while. You don't get kicked out of the RP if you die or get shot down. (If you die, you can make another character.)

3. There are ranks. But everyone except moderators and me start out as Second Lieutenant.
