Know that I am not your Enemy, and neither am I your Ally. I am but the Overseer of this Game.
Prevail, or fail - it matters not to me. It is up to you to survive these Trials, or succumb to Nonexistence.
Regardless, I am sure... You will make this an enthralling Spectacle.

tfw you want to work on a WIP game but have literally no time because of school projects and assignments
on the other hand i have all the game mechanics sorted out, all i have left to do is to make more puzzle rooms and add some prewritten story flavour text
https://ncase.me/trust/ Metrion posted this way back when ago. If want to know the dynamics of friend/betray, or generally how cooperation works, check this interactive site.
https://ncase.me/crowds/ Interactive site on how the effect of people's behaviors have on a certain group. This helps explain how groups form in VLDR and become resistant to separating.

Zero Escape: VLDR XXXI - The Golden Rule
Signup Date: Sunday January 27, 2019 (tentative, may be pushed back based on how far Nelly's game has progressed by then, or may be earlier if Nelly's game is going quickly)
Some game details: Spoiler:The game will have 9 players. There is a strong story component integrated into the game. Roleplay is strongly encouraged but will not be enforced. The puzzles are hard. You've been warned. This game contains many mechanics not seen in other games that I am testing in this game. If you are expecting a vanilla VLDR experience, look elsewhere. There are no pre-ins for this game. Do not ask for one. This is the same game that I announced in March 2016. It was canned and uncanned at least twice during development and has undergone many changes. Pretty much anything I said about this game when I announced it should be ignored. The only things that really remain from my original idea are the main storyline and the game title. But other than that, everything has been scrapped and redone at least once (even the story and main idea have gone through some changes in development).

✨ embrace reading ✨ After tossing this idea around for about two years, I'm pleased to formally announce details for this game. Please be aware of the notes below:
. Signups for this game will go up December 14th, 2018 at 7PM EST. . The thread will be posted an hour in advance. Do not post, or you will be blacklisted from the game. . This game has 13 players. . 3 slots feature players who have received pre-ins. . The rest of the slots are up for grabs. . Please be aware roleplaying is highly encouraged per the story of this game.
The signup process will proceed as follows:
. Instead of posting on the thread, you will private message me. . The subject of the PM must be "VLDR - Supernova-12 Signup". Your body should only contain a bolded /join. . Posting on the thread is prohibited, and doing so for any reason will get you blacklisted from the game. . The first 10 to PM me will receive slots. . This is a trial run to see if this method is better than public posting on the thread; as we know, the forums tend to eat posts when numerous people all attempt to post at the same time.

Signups date is TBD.
The game will be twelve (12) players.
A couple other things about the game I will host in the summer: -Hidden stats: Not as omnipresent as in VLDR IV. There might be some hidden stats (they might be shown to the players I havent decided yet). There will not be as many stats as in VLDR IV. -The game will have multiple possible endings, depending on decisions of the players -There may be role cards. Given the premise of the game, there may not be role cards. All players will be given a secondary objective. Primary objective for all players is to escape the facility. -Forum location: The game might take place on this forum or I might make a createaforum forum for the game. The reason that I would make a createaforum forum would be because it is easier for me to manage all aspects of the game as I would be able to make boards, and other things such as inventory boxes that only individual players can see. Also players may be required to not have their current forum username for flavour purposes. -Traitors: Not a thing this game. Not doing that again, that was a really bad idea last time.
(everything I said in this quote should be ignored, almost none of it still holds true with the final version of the game)

Some game details: The game will have 9 players. All 9 spots are up for grabs. The puzzles are hard. You have been warned. This game has a lot of ideas and mechanics thrown in. Expect this game to be very different from recent games. Role playing will be strongly encouraged but will not be enforced. There is a strong story component to this game. Game thread will be posted sometime (probably a day or two) before signups. Do not post in the game thread until the game has begun.
How to sign up: To signup, send me a PM once the signup time pas passed. The subject must be 'VLDR' and the message content should read /join. The first 9 players to PM me will be in the game. All PMs received afterwards will go into a backups list.
