A uPick of Ice and Fire (24/24) - Replacement needed!

Welcome to YouKnowNothingCon 2013. Where the biggest ASOIAF fans from across
mafiascum
The World have gathered. Surely when a bunch of mafiascummers cosplay their favourite characters nothing could go wrong? Right? Right?


  1. This will not be a Bastard game. However it may be Quirky/Vanilla/Otherwise. It hasn't been designed yet. Basically, you're signing up with the faith in me as a moderator to deliver a fun and enjoyable game. Good luck! You'll get a more complete set up of game specific things, in the game thread.
  2. This game is primarily based on the book series. However I may take inpsirations from the TV series if I so choose. I don't know, we'll see!
  3. Remember, a minimum of 5 uPick choices. No more than 2 POV characters. If you don't know what a POV character is check here. You can send any living or dead or undead or animals or whatever you want as long as they were alive at one point. (I.e. don't send in something like a "Door" or "Ice".)
  4. Once again I reserve the right to be quirky. If I am, you
    will
    like it.
  5. The Dragon may have three heads. Hydras are limited to two
  6. This game will be run Wisdom of the One. If you think there is a player who will be problematic, bring it to me and I can ponder it. It's not a popularity contest, but if you've a valid reason for me denying someone entry that's fine.
  7. FINALLY. This is a uPick. Replacements in a uPick are LAME. Not to say I won't find them, but it's not as fun for them. If you're not sure you can commit or feel you'll have to replace out don't sign up. I'm not saying to predict the future, but make sure you know what you're comiting to.




Some questions you may have had that I have foreseen for I am a prophet and a scholar.

Are alignments going to be randomised?

Probably! Maybe.... Hm.

Are there cults?

As I said, you'll get more setup information in the game thread. Patience.

How long will it take you to make this?

Well I have 10 days. And I'll probably use all of them. Basically, the quicker everyone gets their list in the quicker it gets done.

If a week from now the game isn't up and you think OH I WANT TO CHANGE MY PICKS TO-

Stop. Don't think. No more thoughts. If you've sent me picks before, you can change them, that's fine, half way through my alloted time isn't. Be considerate!

Will this be fun?

Yes!

Who would YOU pick if you were playing?

<redacted for metagaming> (I've no clue) (I do, actually...shh!)

I'll be aided by hito, Mina and Nexus in designing this so it should be AMAZING. Hopefully. No pressure. :shifty:

Confirm! (Avatar subject to change, if you have a good picture of a goat on a raft - and I'm sure you must have some lying around - then please do let us know.)

Actually, I tried that, but it doesn't look so good when cropped into an avatar. There's too much you need to fit into 100x100 to get the full effect.
