Setting and FAQ | Rules | Network FAQ | Game FAQ

NETWORK

So you've just found your CALL device and you're not quite ready to see what hitting the [TRANSPORT] button does. Instead, you start looking around on the messaging apps to see who you can talk to: the HERO Network for heroes, the CAD network for villains, and the CALL network if curious to see who might answer. Need advice? Want to see what other people feel about an issue? Go for it...



CITY OF NIGHTMARE

So you actually hit that [TRANSPORT] button and while you can't say that the City of Tomorrow where you started at isn't neat and all but there's just so much to explore. But as you make your way across the bridge, a sudden rainstorm begins. Through the gloom and the lightning, you can make out a single building in the distance. It's not particularly welcoming, of course, but it does at least look dry and reasonably sturdy. What could go wrong here? Hopefully, someone in there has an idea of when the rain might stop. Or... someone will come soon?



CITY OF ROMANCE

It is a singularly beautiful night out in the City of Romance, even more singularly beautiful than most of the nights there, which are usually pretty nice. The sky is clear and dark, and it's just the right temperature out for a late picnic or a night of stargazing. It appears that some enterprising soul has put out a number of blankets in the park, though there are a limited number of them so you may have to share...



CITY OF ADVENTURE

You've been in the wilds of the City here for the last few hours. Hot, sweaty, and more than a little uncomfortable given the number of mosquito, you would almost think that someone heard your silent prayers as you come through the trees and spy the most amazing looking waterfall. Obviously, you've learned that many things are not as they seem in this City and that the beautiful can hide all manner of mysteries... but damn if that pool doesn't look like it'd feel amazing to dive into.



WILDCARD!

Go wherever your heart leads you!

[tictacs]

I don't even know what a "deets" is

[ikols]

Just watch more Buzzfeed.
Deets are details!

[tictacs]

Is Buzzfeed a show about bees?

I can give you the "deets", though. Easy as pie

What do you wanna know?

[ikols]

I want to hold your hand and teach you about apps and things, haha. ;-)

"36/M/Single" doesn't tell me much about your 'FRIEND', is he brave and handsome? Heroic? Villainous?? Which is his fave city here? Is he brunette/blond/ginger? How does he feel about nachos????
You see where I'm going with this.

[tictacs]

I'm pretty sure you can teach me without holding my hand!

And I'll answer everything following that list of yours, just so you know:

I wouldn't know about handsome, but brave works. Wannabe heroic? He doesn't know what "here" means, but probably San Francisco if you asked. Brunet. Nachos are awesome, especially with gratuitous amounts of cheese

Uh. I guess he likes waffles for dinner

[ikols]

Get in the dating app spirit!!

[ Someone could tell him this isn't a dating app right now and he would push their face five thousand miles away. No one needs that kind of negativity. ]

Answers appreciated! :-) And now to commence with the requisite sharing of deets:
21/M&F/Single

[tictacs]

See what I mean? That is definitely an intense age gap

"Deets" completely gave you away

M&F? Is that male sometimes and then female the other times? Or am I talking to twins

[ikols]

Deets is a totally normal word!

[ If you're a hipster viking who has done all his cultural sponging off Earth since 2013, maybe. ]

Right the first time, I'm genderfluid.
Why are you single at 36?

[tictacs]

Well I was

I mean my frie

Y'know, screw it, yeah, I used to be married

Then I got sent to prison three years and she divorced me

I mean, it could definitely be worse! I still see my daughter pretty often, which is more than enough for me

When you're genderfluid do you tell people what pronouns you want them to use at what time? Are you feeling more male right now or female

[ikols]

It's nice you have a daughter out of that marriage, at the very least!
What did you go to prison for?

I'm male right now, yes. :-) TY for asking, no one ever does that where I'm from.

[tictacs]

This company stole money from their customers and I stole that money from them to give it back. But obviously people use the word "rob" even though I didn't mug anyone, sheesh

I've never actually met someone genderfluid before so uh

I didn't want to assume

I'm all guy, if you couldn't already tell

[ikols]

People try and lock me up for stealing things too, even though they don't really belong to anyone.
If I'm not hurting anyone or myself then I don't see why it's such a big deal.
Sounds like yours was a righteous theft!

I like guys, you're good. 'If you couldn't already tell'. ;-)

[tictacs]

Are you sure you're stealing things that don't belong to anyone? You gotta double-check that

Thanks for the ;-) and boosting my self-confidence! Being a guy is all I really know how to do besides breathing so it's nice to know it's appreciated

[ikols]

Yeah!!! 110%
or like 80% okay, a guy's gotta have hobbies and ancient artefacts don't come with receipts of purchase a thousand years old.

Besides breathing and stealing, you mean. Why don't you come to Shadows or Adventure? Come be Robin Hood #2

[tictacs]

Ancient artefacts sound a lot more iffy to deal with than uh... money stolen from customers

Is Shadows or Adventure some kinda gimmick

[ikols]

Money's easy. ;-D

Nah, Shadows is like the bad sister of Tomorrow and Adventure is like stepping into LOTR, it's good if you need to blow off some stress on the trolls.

[tictacs]

Ummmmm

( as someone who's yet to hit his transport button, scott presses his lips together and puffs up his cheeks as he tries to find a way to address this properly. )

Hey, do you come from a place with a funny dictionary?

[ikols]

??? :-/ I'm from Manhattan.

[ ... Well, it's not a total lie. ]

Why do you ask?

that icon

[tictacs]

I'm not sure I'm understanding how shadow can be like tomorrow and what adventure has to--well, no, I get why adventure and lord of the rings would correlate but that's still a very fuzzy message and I stared at it longer than I'm proud to admit

so many to choose from send help

[ikols]

Look, yeah. You'll get it when you GO there. You could probably skip around Tomorrow with your wallet dangling behind on a string but you're better off carrying it inside your socks in Shadow, understand?
Don't go to Nightmare or Sorcery, I feel responsible for putting that out there now. You didn't even know what Buzzfeed was, how would you fare against necromancers and witches? Yikes.

Trust me. :-)

[tictacs]

The smiley makes me wonder

Uh... these're places, then?

[ikols]

OMG have you not played with your thingy yet?
Press it now, you'll end up in Jetsonsville AKA City of Tomorrow.
Press it!!!!

[tictacs]

( for a second scott thought username horny was talking about his dick. then he remembers the device he's using and looks at it. )

The transport button, right?

[ikols]

Yeah.
Hold your breath. ;-O

[tictacs]

( should scott really be listening to an internet stranger? )

You've done this before right
