Pusan, 2130. The EAEB (East Asia Economic Bloc) faces horrific economic depression. The poor, numbering around 450 million in Korea alone, are starving. Choking. And... angry. Massive riots are cropping up. Something is needed to calm them down or the power of the priveliged few will evaporate.
The solution? You. You are a clone. One of thousands. Your job: to run across a massive, sadistic game show field risking your life to keep the crowd happy. Lasers, machine guns, you name it, FOBG has it.
But anyway. Here's your sheet.
Name:
Health: 100/100
Stamina: 120/100
Clothing: FOBG fodder jumpsuit (red and gold, black and pink, green and brown or blue and silver)
Inventory:
Left hand:
Right hand:

Stats

Charm:
Strength:
Agility:
Perception:
Stealth skill:

Attributes: fresh meat
Med. status: fine
Location:

Types affect your stats. Here are the Types:
Runner: +10 agility, +50 stamina
Crumpler: +10 strength, +10 defence
Tank: +10 defence, +50 health
Ghost: +10 stealth, +10 perception
Blank: +18 extra stat points
The attribute "fresh meat" means you are less likely to get shot at, even when wounded. You get 30 free stat points to use wisely. Locations:
Pusan: Skyline Arena (arena on the skyline)
Outer Tokyo: Half Mile High Arena (epic flying arena, but prone to tubulence)
Sea of China: Aquadome Arena (underwater arena, with lovely views. Isolation makes it easier to spot care packages being dropped)
North China: Geo Arena (underground arena, with dangerous stalactites. VERY easy to see care packages)
Gobi desert: Sandpit (SAAAAAND)
Siberia: Winter Wonderland Arena (cold, but easily escapable like the Sandpit)
Unfortunately, Pusan is the only one available as the show still needs to get some money. Also, no joining mid-game. Book ahead. Or you die.

I turn and straight punch Daivd in the face, and flee, heading towards the Panorama Zone.

I try to dodge the punch, then get my breath and continue, now more aware of the sensors.

Sorry, my WiFi is down. We have dial-up, but I'm in a bit of a hard place all the same. Try to do it one post per turn, please. No, wait... two phases. First phase: Action Phase. Second phase: Reaction Phase. It's like this:
P1: I swing a punch at P2.
P2: I leap over the mines.
Nerdsoft: I declare the Action Phase over! Begin reacting!
P2: I twist, mid-jump, to dodge P1's punch.
P1: I dive to intercept P2.
And so on. One post per phase. I'd like it if you tried not to let other actions affect your actions, but they can affect your reactions.

So, is we in an action phase now, or a reaction?

Action, so that you can adapt to the new system. Sorry, but your past moves do not count and you're all in the black pod. It's dissolving fast, so get ready to run.

I go up to Dave and propose an Alliance of the Dave's. He'll sneak past and dodge stuff which involve sneaking and dodging, and I'll charge past and break stuff which involve charging and breaking. We can decide on our general strategy later, but I'm in favor of using the other players as human sheilds and test subjects.
