It's Block Party time! June 7th to June 10th!

[rapturescreed]

Who: Siren's Port and You!
When: June 7th to June 10th
Where: The block outside the Newcomer Community Center
Summary: It's a Block Party!
Warnings: Possible language, nothing worse then that.

The block outside the Newcomer Community Center had been bustling ever since the block party had been announced little less then a week ago. There had been much to get done, and there was little time to waste. With the cure being distributed, the NPP's stance on everything was very clear: they would find some way to put a smile back on the peoples faces. There were stalls set up next to each other, one or two each for a different company, business, or an individual who set out to be enterprising and had wares to show. Many booths were selling different foods or drinks, while others had games for people to play. Some stalls were handing out fliers, trying to promote their business. Each stall had a sign hanging from if that proclaimed what they were, and what they were selling. There was a large stage in front of the center that was for entertainment; they had all kinds of shows for the people to watch and listen to as they milled about.

Most games didn't cost much, or they were free, as long as the person understood that a small donation would be appreciated. All proceeds from the block party were going to help those who had been affected the worst by this plague; some were still in the hospital with crippling medical bills, and the NPP was determined to help those less fortunate. Security was milling about, just as a standard precaution against stealing, or some kind of protest, and each protester was given something to eat, drink, and an invitation to join in the festivities.

The block party would be happening from Thursday, June 7th, to Sunday, June 10th. It would open at 11:00 am, and close around 5:00 pm. This was to ensure that everyone has plenty of time to get their stall up and more then enough time to take the stall down before sirens. Nothing would be left outside in the darkness, but also give enough time to let people have fun. Especially those who wanted to dunk the NPP members in a big tub of water.



OOC: Everyone can make their own thread! If you are a company or a person who has rented a stall, you can make your own thread, and it will be linked on the main post. Entertainment will be taking place throughout the day, and anyone who signed up can make their own thread or comment around. All games can make their own thread as well. Alcohol is allowed for anyone of the legal drinking age (which is 17, for those unaware!), and security will make sure nothing gets out of hand. There will be protesters on the edge of the block on Friday, but there will be no violence tolerated.

All threads will be linked on the main post for easier navigation. This post will serve for the entirety of the block party, which is from Thursday to Sunday. If you want, you can put the date in the subject line, otherwise it is up to you and your threadmates to decide when things take place. All stalls are set up for everyday of the block party. Don't forget to tag yourself in.

Have a good time!

[Watches in some interest as he gauges the other's moves, smiling a little too freely.

He simply was having fun in all this, so don't mind his whimsies! ]

Well I do try to make my card game fun for everyone, for people of all ages.

[Iroh considers the cards in his hand, he didn't really have a fantastic grip of the rules, but he would build a small basis to defend his life points, and send in some lesser monster to scout out the trap]

That is a good way to conduct business.

My apologies for the late. Work has been making me tired orz

[mister_foppish]

[An excellent plan, one he would counter by adding to the defense on his own side when he turn came around next round. However, he's half-focused on the game as he was very much interested in speaking to this man, so feel free to turn over his "weak points".

He does focus on the field to see what it was the other was doing...]

I do heartily agree, good sir Iroh!

Now, have you decided on your move?

Thats cool, my eyes are all like tired due to being up and having so much to do today.

[tea_lover64]

Yes, I have.

[He places toy soldier in attack mode]

I am going to attack with this monster.

[Sometimes you had to spring the trap]

Late again but hopefully not next time 8(

[mister_foppish]

[He flips it over with a careful smile in place, tilting his head. It's Hane-Hane, a beast-type flip effect monster.]

Oooh, good show! You're a natural! Toy soldier has 800 attack points and 300 defense points, making it stronger than this one...

[He gestures to Hane-Hane, who only has 450 attack points and 500 defense points...Making the difference in life points that he loses to be 300.]

However: I'm afraid that Toy Soldier will have to be returned to your hand, given that is his effect, even as a result of battle. Some monsters have such consequences, I'm afraid.

[tea_lover64]

Hmmmm, ah I see.

[He takes the card back into his hand]

Very interesting.

[mister_foppish]

You see, this is a strategy that could be used for when you have multiple monsters on the field and your enemy has a particularly strong one that you want to delay the attack of.~ And then once the monster is returned to the player's hand the opposing player that has Hane-Hane is free to exploit the field in whatever way he chooses.

Of course, you are still free to counter with anything you may have…But, really the point is the flip effect monster can be used to one's advantage quite readily, I'd say.

[Gesturing to the field, where neither of them have monsters at the moment...]

Then after we exit the battle phase we enter the end turn phase...Which means it would then be my turn.

[tea_lover64]

I see. By taking a small loss, you enable the field to be opened up for offense, allowing you to strike for more damage.

[He was generally pretty quick when it came to such games.]
