Clan House OOC: Discussion

[tomaszavenger]

As requested... OOC goes here.

[echoes]

Any particular reason why there's two of these, and that I can't access the other?

[tomaszavenger]

Hmm... server timeout Rin... there should only be one... try now.

[echoes]

Ah, I see.
Anyways...

[Yetisarge]

so how the heck are we going to go about playing Mao?

[charli]

Well, right now we're just playing it out in the IC thread. Unless Tom wants to move them into a new thread for this and other similar games that might crop up?

[TrickyLA]

Pick cards.

Stick with them.

Etc etc

[Yetisarge]

hmm ok then.. sounds like it will be a bit of a annoyance since we could just lie about what cards we got.

[TrickyLA]

nope, we display cards HERE

[tomaszavenger]

Guys, if you want random cards:

Dawww, sad faic.
Google it?

[Yetisarge]

yeah well there are multiple versions of mao.. and the ones that we have are very different then the ones you will probably find through Google.

[echoes]

Well then, Dan could help her cheat... =D

[Yetisarge]

yeah.. and if I find that out I would probably just quit and now I'm not risking getting more cards sara.

[echoes]

*cackles*
But you WOULDN'T find out =D

[Yetisarge]

no I would.. you don't realize the power that I truely have

[echoes]

yeah, whatever.
I doubt you would IC.

The way you guys are describing Mao is like a version of Crazy Eights I played with my friends years ago. You start off with an evenly distributed pile of cards, (sometimes with the Jokers, sometimes without), and then someone goes first, placing a card face up on the floor. At this point, it's a free-for-all with all of the players.

Say the first card was a King of Hearts. Depending on what version you were playing, anyone could put down either a king, a red card, or a heart. Card changes happen frequently depending on what you just put down (King of Hearts => Ten of Hearts => Ten of Spades => Ace of Spades => Ace of Diamonds => Seven of Diamonds => and so forth). Any eights that were put down of any suit were wild cards (Jokers worked the same way if you were playing with them) and play changed accordingly. The first person to get rid of all of their cards was the winner. The games that my friends and I played were insanely fast and would usually be over within 30 seconds to a minute in length, depending on how many people we were playing against. We never really had any special name for it; we just referred to it as our own version of Crazy Eights.

[TrickyLA]

Not Mao =P

[echoes]

And for once, Magic Fails.
*writes this moment down in a notebook*

[TheTimeSweeper]

I said it was LIKE a version of Crazy Eights I used to play, not the same thing.

*Rolls eyes*


@ Rin

"And for once, Magic Fails"?

*Tries to control laughter*

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

XDDDDDDDD

Dude, where the hell have you been? XD I've failed LOADS of times!

[Yetisarge]

yeah.. though I'm not sure how far we are going to get cause Leyla is probably going to be on restriction now cause of her grades.

[charli]

Meh, we can't really scrap the game, though.

[Yetisarge]

yeah.. but considering that it is just you me and Dan.. we would be playing out of turn each time cause we would be skipping Leyla.

[charli]

Not even Dan. It's you, me, and me/Eric.
