Day 1 Round 1 begins now!
GAMEPLAY PREFACE
As a forewarning to all teams engaging in play, please remember that this is a survival game. That means that in order to have a team win, other teams will not survive. It is very possible that multiple teams will not even make it past the first few rounds of gameplay.
Some rounds are more realistic while others are random things that I come up. When I come up with a scenario and the options that go along with it, I pick some that will allow teams who choose that option to survive while other ones will cause them to perish. Those decisions are made prior to posting. When teams choose their options, therefore, the outcomes for those options have already been determined.
If your team perishes, it is not because I chose to intentionally kill off your team. It is because your team chose an option that was determined ahead of time to lead to death. I want to have fun and create the best game that I can without having people be offended that they did not win my game. Last round only one person won… Please keep that in mind.
DAY 1 ROUND 1 SCENARIO
For the past few days, things have cooled off a bit in the city. The majority of the survivors are keeping to themselves and staying in “their own areas.” Many have grown weary of the violence and death and things had settled down a bit. Until last night…
Last night the severe gunfire began once again. Either someone in town found another stash of ammo, or, even worse, someone new is in town. If it doesn’t stop soon, they will probably be sweeping the town and gather whatever goods remain while eliminating any resistance. Your team would rather not stick around to find out. At least the last shots fired were still a little distant.
Your stomach groans once again. You’ll need food soon. In fact, if you do not eat before the end of the day tomorrow (gameplay), you’ll wake up dead on day 3 (gameplay). To have enough energy to successfully flee town, you should probably eat first. Your team begins to research the building that you are in. You know every nook and cranny is empty, but you can’t help but hope.
In disappointed frustration, you both slump to the floor. Sitting there is the desolate silence, you begin to hear a slight clicking noise. As you listen, wait, and wonder, a creature emerges from under a shelving unit.
It’s a rat. It doesn’t look incredibly healthy, but it doesn’t exactly look diseased either. Between the two of you, there is a good chance that you could capture it and kill it. There is a slight risk of being bitten, but it could be worth the risk. The rat is big enough that you both could get a meal out of it. You still have some fluid in your lighter, so you could cook it. However, the smoke and smell may attract others. Could you just eat it raw?
Of course, if the rat has been eating well enough to stay alive, perhaps it knows where some food is. It may even have a stash of food hidden somewhere nearby. Could your team just observe it until it leads you to its food supply or hidden stash. That certainly is an option, but will it work? Maybe you should just move on and forget about the food for a while…
TEAM RESPONSIBILITY
Your team has four options this round. Choose one option and reply below within 24 hours.
- OPTION 1 – Try to kill, cook, and eat the rat.

GAMEPLAY PROGRESSION AND TEAMS
I’ll do my best to keep this game moving along, but I will need your help to do so. Please do your best to reply promptly. Some team discussion in the comment section adds a fantastic element to the game as well, but you may want to keep your cards close and not give out too much information to other teams.
I may reward everyone who participates even when they perish, just like I did last time, but I am not sure yet. A few more teams need to be formed and named, so please see the comment section below. There are three comments I will post below:
- FULLY REGISTERED TEAMS – If you show up in that section, please reply with your choice within 24 hours. That is all that I need from you at this time.
- TEAMS THAT NEED NAMES OR TEAM MATES – Some teams still need names of team mates. Please provide that information to me as well as your choice for this round. See the “Users Who Need Teams” comment below if you are still looking for a partner.
- USERS THAT NEED TEAMS – If your name appears on that list, please find a team mate and form a team. Then pick a team name and make your choice. Thanks.
Obviously, there is a lot that needs to happen on my end to make sure that this game can progress as it needs to. Make sure your team name and username is accurate below. I’ll tag these posts in #steem-pocalypse every day, so please check that tag or my blog page every day to participate in the next round! Who’s ready? I’m excited!
Until next time…
