"One Must Fail"

You awake one morning and find a ransom note for your love, who is being held captive in the underworld. You have the IBM 5100 computer the note asks for. The only problem is delivering it. In person.

"Dear_____,
I have captured your love, ______, and have taken him/her to the underworld. His/her only hope is if you deliver an IBM 5100 computer to me, personally. However, the only way you can get here is by dying, yet touching the computer, which must be unscathed.

Sincerely,
John Titor"

You quickly consult your Boy/Girl Scout Manual on how to enter the underworld and you discover that you need to kill yourself in 6 simultaneous ways (or nearly simultaneous ways), or 5 simultaneous ways if you have earned a Darwin Award.

Note: Darwin Awards are available in this game, but they are not set in stone. In other words, you have to be creative and surprise us with a way to kill yourself.

Not too hard of a task. You just need to find weapons and such. Too bad you live in Safety Town.

If only the computer could withstand falls, flame, and water. Where to go. What to do...



Moves will be conducted by round. I'll post a time-limit and anyone who doesn't give a move will not be moved. Moves will look like this:
Turn 1: Go to Walmart via Munroe to Carter. Go in closest entrance.
Turn 2: Look for ____.
Turn 3: Checkout.
Only 1 turn a day, however.

Post moves in this thread

When it comes time to kill yourself, give the specific order of attempts and keep in mind that some things won't work together, and you won't die without the proper number of deaths.

Stuff can be found EVERYWHERE, so be sure to tell me where you want to go (by road name).

There are a limited number of items, so players going for the same items will need to play ninja. Who ever loses will be knocked out and will not be able to take the item.

That's all I can think of. For now, at least.

Special thanks to Lepton, who helped with organization and will still be around for me to consult with.

You start in your house (it has a number on it corresponding to you). Then you can be like "I want to go to the playground via Main and Rawlings" or "I want to stay in my house for a turn and make myself a sandwich". You're running out of time! Hurry up!

Dethy: On South Trillibang you find a rusty knife. Do you stop to pick it up or continue to the fire station?

Note: Stopping ends the turn.

That's your turn.

Dethy successfully picked up a rusty knife. I changed it a little, Lepton, but not completely.

That's strange, Neo. I can e-mail you a copy of the map. It won't change during the game.

Right outside of his house, Chuck comes across a bag of a white powdery substance. [via AIM] Chuck decides to stop and pick up the bag... of flour?

Mole arrives successfully at the farm.

Remember, feel free to EXPLORE and DO things. You can take a turn to say "Do___." You might get a Darwin. Or find something unexpected.

Cruc: on your way to the amusement park, right before the construction yard entrance on Main Street, you see a vile of a bright green liquid. Do you want to stop and pick it up, thus ending your turn, or continue on to the amusement park?

RSA: On your way to FF's house, you also spot the vile of bright green liquid. If both you and cruc decide to pick it up, you will have to play a game of 5-point ninja. The winner will get the item, the loser will continue on his way. Otherwise, whoever decides to take it gets it. (If it comes to ninja, players will need to E-mail me their numbers.)

FF: On Iditarod Trail North, you find a rusty knife. Do you stop to pick it up, or continue on your way to Wal-Mart?

Neo: I need your E-mail address to send you the map.

FF picks up the rusty knife only to watch it disintegrate and leave her with only a dull, rusty handle.

RSA picks up the vile of lime green... Kool-Aid?

Neo notices a bright orange bag on Munroe Ave. Do you want to stop and pick it up, or continue on your way?

If Neo doesn't post his answer by the end of today, he'll just not pick it up and go on through. Then turn 2 can start.

"Yes" you pick up the bag, or
"Yes" you continue on your way, or
"Yes" you pick both nostrils simultaneously?
