The last branch was one that Ella made up, called The Operative Unit, or TOU for short (The agents are called TOUs, as in twos). It’s basically spies and a undercover government agency, kind of like the FBI or CIA.

How does everyone feel about the name Crystalbolt Hunters for the Jedi-police?

If not that here’s a few more: The Elite Unit, the High Patrol, Recon Force, the Silent Guard, The Watch Circle, the Circle of Hunters, the Watchkeepers, the Crystalbolt Circle or the Crystalbolt Keepers, or Crystalbolt Guards.…[Read more]

@melodyjoy

Oh, sorry!

I think that we should just post it, once we get the name for the Jedi-people. We already have so much up it won’t make to much of a difference.

@melodyjoy

You asked if we should have 1 or 2 judges for the individual games (Sorry I’m not exactly sure how to blockquote…), so I’d be fine with two, even three, because it might be better to have more than one person deciding who wins, but I think that one might be easier on everyone else.

@melodyjoy @wingiby-iggiby @joelle-stone

Here’s a High Judge idea I’ve come up with, please let me know if there’s anything you think I should change!

Maxwort Jargaun, age 48

He is very political and professional in almost all of his views, and is strictly by the book with no exceptions whatsoever. Having grown up in a high class and a…[Read more]

@melodyjoy

So, basically I was saying that even though a player won last, they don’t get eliminated because the Judge thinks that they played well. Sorry, I phrased that whole sentence kind of weird!

Also, the idea that each game should have an aspect of the government branch sounds great! I can work on integrating it into the games, or w…[Read more]

@wingiby-iggiby

Sounds good!

Maybe only the captains of the organization have laser swords, and the rest have a different type weapon… I had an idea for like a blaster that shoots black crystals, but that might be a bit much.

How do you feel about Black Hunters for their name? Maybe Dark or Void Hunters, or Elite Police?

@wingiby-iggiby (aka the Blurter)

The animals can be anything you want them to be, but it would work best if they were at least somewhat smaller than the stadium… no flying orcas whales or planet-sized… monsters. I was picturing each them slightly larger than a tiger, and each a different species (birdlike, catlike, doglike, lizardlike,…[Read more]

I may have forgotten to tag you guys, this is for the above posts.

Sorry if I tag you twice!

Another thought to add onto this, could a player potentially win last in the game, but because they performed well the judges eliminated a different player that won a higher place but played poorly?

THE RACE
The government provides hover boards, hover-blades, hover bikes, and a few other small vehicles. The track may work well in the Desert biome, but whoever picks this can decide. Weapons and combat are allowed, but sabotage is discouraged. Points are determined by which place you win, but also collecting several items scattered about the…[Read more]

@melodyjoy

Yes, I can do that. I’ll write them out and get them up here as soon as I can!

I can design as many games as needed, as I already have an idea for each of them… let me know which ones you all want and I’ll take the remaining ones!
Btw, Infection was something that I played with a few friends where a tagger touches other players and they become taggers, aka infected, and get other people until everyone is out… an idea I h…[Read more]

@melodyjoy

I believe that it is for the group of eight winners who decide to go free the losers who are being held captive for some reason. I think it was mentioned in an earlier post, I’d have to go and find it to be sure.

@joelle-stone

I have two. I originally had three but I changed the character and still didn’t like him so I just gave up on having a third. I’m pretty sure that we all have two, but it’ll be good to confirm with everyone else.

THE CULLINGS

A comprehensive guide

One player is selected from each country and sent to the Arena, a large space station that orbits a different planet each game. As it has been for past centuries, the Resilience will host the Cullings this election.

Once the players arrive they are settled in the dorms of the host ship. After a tour of the…[Read more]

@wingiby-iggiby

We could add another character, or just use a non-POV character… we should probably each develop a few of those for the games because especially at the beginning of the games there will be MANY other players that need to be written in.

Lol, I really like both of those! I think that Menace 64 might be easier to say quickly, though.

@wingiby-iggiby

You can definitely let your characters stick around. I don’t think that really many people will die, but the eliminated players won’t be allowed to compete. They can definitely still play a role in the story, though!

Maybe that little team can have a cool name, just something to call themselves. I was thinking the Uprising, but t…[Read more]

Oh, yes, we should definitely make up the judges. Originally there were only three altogether, but it’d probably good to increase that number.

@joelle-stone

Thanks!

Yes, I really like Mechanical/Living battle.

I don’t really have a set number for the games, we might need more or less depending on how many players there are. Eight was just in my mind because there are eight branches of the government, so eight winners, and I think I may have done it subconsciously…
