The objective of the game is simple--survive, but how you will do it is up to you. This is an RPG that almost completely relies on improvisation. Making your character is simple, you start out with 100$. You can spend this by posting links to Amazon.com of the items you will buy. You can spend less than 100$, but anything that you do not spend will be lost. You will not need to spend money on basic clothes, you start out wearing a T-shirt, jeans, underwear and a pair of basic tennis shoes. Take into account that most of the enviroments you are faced with will be anyting but natural. You will recieve an additional 100$ for each day that you survive and 300$ for each PM challenge you complete.
Next, choose your profession. This can be any non-military profession that gets paid on average less than 80,000$/year in the US. Again link me a source for this one.
Finally, pay attention to your PM box. I may PM you with special challenges or cryptic messages that may give you an advantage. I will always be PMing you as some kind of character from popular culture, and if you can name who it is I will give you a piece of useful information.(Note: This does not complete any challenges, but I may give you a clue on how to complete them if you name the correct character) PM me back to respond unless I tell you otherwise Finally I will start the game when 5 people join, but more people can join until I post that the game is closed in this thread.
Edit: Very little information is given on purpose as information is an important commodity in the game. Do not form a character profile, your backstory will be revealed as you struggle to survive. No shipping and handling will need to be paid. Basic food and water needs will always be met as long as it is possible to acquire them in your current state and with the tools you have. In most days food and water will not even need to be acquired as food and water will be provided. There will be enough food and water for everyone to survive on every day. Some of it may be difficult to acsess; however, you will want to manage the food and water together among your teammates unless you happen to want your teammates dead. Teammates may actually not be a good word to use, keep that in mind.
Day 2 has started!
