If you already know what the Sleepy games are about, then skip on down past the second header rule, please. happy

I hope to get things under way ASAP, when I determine we have enough players.




The Sleey series is basically a Murder-in-Mansion mystery game, but in post-by-post thread form. The game will begin with a certain amount of players and after a certain period of time all but two of those players will be eliminated. The last two remaining are Winner and Murderer. The winner receives a one-week VIPship! The Murderer is a player predetermined before the game's start who periodically offs players throughout the course of the game. Throughout the game there will be challenges and clues. Challenges will provide successful players with such rewards like temporary immunities from murder, limited VIPships, etc... Clues will be laced into everything. They will be in challenges, murder events, the murderer's osts, my posts, etc.... But beware red herrings! Remember!, being eliminated will result in a 24-hour ban. But you can, of course, post under a sock. happy




The sixth Sleepy game will only be in play for approximately two to four days, depending on the number of players that sign up. A player will be eliminated anywhere from every hour or more or less that time. During the time the game is in play, players are expected to post heavily in the game thread. The game will take place sometime in early to mid May, but definitely before Celebration IV.

Unlike past Sleepy games, this time around there will be an entirely new edge. You, the player, will not create your own character. Why? Because they're already made for you! They're in history. You can choose anybody who is dead and well-known. You can be a person you love, or a person you hate in hopes of seeing that person face a grisly end.

You can be anybody from Jesus to Julius Caesar to Adolf HItler to Ronald Reagan.

Also, keep in mind, that the personality you choose may end up also serving the role of Murderer. or.... murdered (most likely the latter).

You may not be a fictional historical character, e.g. --- Mel Gibson's character from The Patriot. However, I do plan to host a Sleepy after this one, in which fictional characters (e.g.- Darth Vader) will be chosen and played.




The Game will occur in an alternate fictional Area 51 which at the beginning will be isolated and its inhabitants sealed off from the outside world by an as-of-yet unrevealed plot device ( tongue ).

I am the Game's sole Host. The Host, however, occupies a distanced and detached role from the game's progress and is purely there for the mechanical purposes of posting the Murderer's latest offing, challenges, etc... the Host's only creative aspect and hand in the game is that of making the challenges and providing the setting. The Host is also of course Game Master- ensuring that offed players do not continue to post in thread, etc... the Hosts's own character also shall enjoy no privilege in being that. As character, he is another player in the game (my character will be eliminated fifth to last).

There will aslo be a Co-Host, to help me out when I'm unavailable. That co-host is harpuah! Between the two of us, all bases should be covered.




Before I end my post, I would like to ask that should you decide to join this game, you must know that you are a JC poster, through and through. When the game begins, "idle-bies" will be eliminated off the back one by one or even en masse. This is purely to get the game and the murderers to the players that are actually playing.

I also ask that you be ready to devote a goodly amount of posting to this game. IT is only in play for a very short time. But that time must be intense and worth it for the game to be a success. I will counsel all recruitees further in this regard.



With that.... here's the list of players:

Username - Historical character

1. Coruscant -
2. One of Earwen's sock - Emily Bronte
3. Sith-Lord-Gunray - Rasputin
4. Grand_Admiral_Grant - John Lennon
5. Angel_Jed_Master - V.I. Lenin
6. GrandAdmiralJello - Divus Julius Caesar
7. _princess_leia_ - William Shakespeare
8. PrincessChattyCathy - Helen Keller
9.
10.
and so on...

Most probably before then. The early part of the month, certainly. I want to get this off the ground fairly quick.
