Thank you dear. *HUGS*

Contestant is accepted. That's three. One more and I'll invite you all into the Green Room (OOC Thread)

I'm sorry i had to turn down the first character. She looks like fun. I'm sure that I will have to turn down a few more celebrities, at which point I will start the Celeb Special. Until then, please keep her on hold.

Merci ma chère.

Thanks for approving Ophélie.

And sure, if you start a celebrity show, Felina will be part of it, and you'll see that she is quite skilled...

Awesome, thanks for the approval~ Game looks awesome and hope it ends up being a good time.
Been away, now i'm back. Updated based off changes in my life.

Ons and offs!

Ebb

Player Name: Ebb



Contestant's name: Nick Bertolli

Age: 35
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Job: Plumber
Nationality: Italian-American

Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 280 lbs
Stats: 58" chest, 43" waist. 8" cock
Natural hair colour: Black
Eye Colour: Brown
Distinguishing marks: Anchor tattoo on upper left arm. Heart tattoo (with "Lily" badly drawn over) on upper right arm. Nose has obviously been broken at least once.
Body hair: Basically hairy all over. Neither trimmed nor styled.

Close Friend or relative: His sister Denise. She's married to a dentist and has two kids, but she'll always be his kid sister.

Likes: Cheesesteaks, blow jobs (receiving), Sunday football, a thick roll of cash, cartoons
Dislikes: Politicians, fancy restaurants, most vegetables, higher education, computers

Personality: Nick is a "man's man", by his own estimation. He's a proud blue-collar worker, from a long line of men who didn't mind getting their hands dirty. Although his first and second marriages didn't work out, and he has no kids, he still considers himself a success. Nick owns his own one-man business, fixing plumbing problems throughout South Philly. Most of the money he earns either gets burned at bad sports bets or turned into piss, by way of beer. Nick is currently single but "enjoys the company" of a variety of lady friends, though none are what he would consider serious relationships. He has been told, and has no reason to doubt, that he's pretty good in the sack.

Nick's world is pretty black and white. There are things that men do, things that women do, and no reason to go changing the rules now. He's inherently suspicious of anyone who uses big words. Nick's not above getting into a fistfight on a Saturday night after a couple of beers, and has the scars to prove it. He is proud of his six years in the merchant marines and considers himself a self-made man: "Nobody ever gave me nothing." He'll do just about anything to avoid looking like a coward, and is prone to fall for stupid dares.

Reason to be here: Nick has a number of friends who seem to be doing much better than him financially. Some have mob connections, others are just much better than Nick at financial management and life in general. He's getting older and starting to worry about his future, but rather than putting together any kind of real plan he's looking for a quick fix. Gambling isn't working out too well -- he's further behind than when he started -- but this TV show looks like it could be his golden ticket. He might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but from what he's heard this isn't like those other game shows with all of those tricky questions. This one sounds like something a real man would be good at, though admittedly the details are kind of unclear.

Remember, many shows will film far ahead of what is airing, Like Chrystal pointed out. Also, even in later episodes, the contestants aren't told the name of the show or which show it will be until they're on stage. All your character knows is signing up is "its a challenge show to earn lots of money, will likely involve some adult content." They're just told its a TV show, and how bad can it be if they're going to air it on TV?

Me too. You can work in a little extra for your character too (did your friends get the application and talk you into signing up, downplaying the adult thing? is your character in denial 'well, they probably just put that there in case, it can't be that bad...' Or a million other excuses to surprise your character.

Thanks. Between your and Chrystal's answers, this makes things much clearer. I think that this being the very first episode makes a big difference.

Chrystal

You are most welcome, Ebb, dear.

I love the character. He is most definitely approved, however I will be watching him (and you) quite closely, because he is just the sort of contestant that the show's accountants will absolutely love!

I'm really looking forward to seeing how he reacts to certain of the challenges!

Chrystal

A rather harried looking young woman bustles in to the hotel and taps vigorously on the door of each of four hotel rooms. As each door is opened, by Jessica, Adam, Ophélie and Nick, the woman asks their name checks them on a clip board she is carrying and then asks them to wait by the elevator. She explains quickly, "I'm here to take you to the green room".

Once all four are gathered, she quickly checks and notes that as yet theseare the only four contestants who are scheduled to be in this episode. Of course there is still two hours to go before air time, so others could still be added, but for now this is the minimum starting line-up.

She opens the private elevator with a key and it drops swiftly to the basement level, where the door opens. The young woman quickly bustles away down a well lit and richly carpeted tunnel. She opens a green door (painted that colour out of tradition), and ushers the four contestants in. "This is the green room. Please wait in here until we are ready for you. Please healp your selves to drinks and snacks, complements of the management".

Thanks. Not that she's important, I'm just trying to get into the spirit of the thing... The IC thread(s) will all be dedicated solely to the action within the TV studio, and there won't be any real room for off-set action, so I'm giving you guys the chance to play that out in the OOC thread, AKA the Green Room.

Thank you. I'm looking forward to some fun square peg / round hole challenges as Nick gets his mind blown.

Chrystal

Cards are returned to the deck after each draw, so, no, the count does not go down. This also means it is possible to draw the same card more than once. This could be a good thing or a bad thing....

Autumn and I actually discussed the mechanics of the game at length, and we settled on the system we thought was best. If it turns out that it doesn't work in practice, we will tweak it for second and subsequent episodes, and players will be welcome to rejoin the game.

Jezabelle

Player Name: Jezabelle

Contestant's name: Juliana Ruiz Castro

Age: 23
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Job: Part Time Model, Most Time Bartend
Nationality: Brazilian

Height: 5'6"
Weight: 145 pounds
Stats: 32DD 29/37
Natural hair colour: Brunette
Eye Colour: Blue
Distinguishing marks: Tramp stamp of angel's wing's sprouting right from the top of her cheeks' cleft.
Body hair: None

Close Friend or relative: Sister Cecily, a 45 year-old Nun and her Tutor when she was very young.

Likes: Compliments, Boys, being Center of Attention, Fruit Smoothies, Exotic Dancing
Dislikes: Being told "No," Prudes, Celery, being called a "Cunt Wagon" because it implies her tits aren't important too, and Fake Tits because she thinks they're unfair.

Personality:
Inclined to appear vapid, Juliana has a certain degree of shrewdness that she employs as vicious leverage from behind a veil of innocent ignorance. Having worked her way from waitress to bartend in a Rio dive not only by having a superb memory but also by being good with her hands under a desk, her “modeling” career consists of infrequent risque posing in skimpy swimsuits on public beaches or warehouses.

Despite all of this she tries to emmulate the rich and fabulous people of American Reality TV, finding their endless vapid antics a good place for note taking on how to keep those around her thinking she’s nothing but a pair of tits. While all smiles on the outside she is cold and calculating on the inside with two exceptions: with close friends and family, with whom she is genuinely sweet, and with partners who are strong enough to control her, with whom she is submissive while tantalizing.

Reason to be here:
The money was enticing, and if the subject of the show was vague the resort they brought her to for the interview was superb. Finally feeling like the lofty levelof even the Kardashians was within grasp, she felt she’d go in for the money. At any rate, the room service would be nice, and she had earned a few “bonus” vacation days after sucking her employer dry-- literally.

However, she was also tantilized by the “Adult” nature of the show-- certainly nothing too terrible could be done on TV, right? But the idea of being naughty in such a public way was surprisingly tantalizing to her, and considering her “talents” she may well be able to make a tidy sum. Even coming away empty handed though, she felt the experience was a once-in-a-lifetime sort of deal that she couldn’t imagine passing up on.







Freshly approved  ;D

Chrystal

So yeah, this poor harried looking woman does her bit and escorts Juliana to the green room...

I see you've already found the thread so I won't bother linking it again! Please post OOC (or semi-ic, like some of the others are), and settle in.

Sethala

Hm, this seems interesting enough.  I've seen a few other games with the idea of "push people past their limits", so here's hoping this one lives up to it.

Shame that this is on plain Earth though, as I tend to prefer catgirls and elves to boring humans >.>

Working on a different game's character for now, but once I'm done there I'll make someone here.

Sarah Morgan

Count me as interested in this too!  Chrystal already knows I am, but I'm declaring it officially here.  I'll work on a character tomorrow, and catch up on both this thread and the OOC.  I've bookmarked the thread, but I haven't read through it yet.  If pictures are required, I'll need help finding one, but I can give a text description to help in hopefully finding a model to match.

Player Name: nailcrosser

Contestant's name: Lars Jenson

Age: 29
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Job: English teacher
Nationality: Norwegian

Height: 6'3
Weight: 180
Stats: 44 inch chest, 34 inch waist, 9 inch cock.
Natural hair colour: Dark brown
Eye Colour: Green
Distinguishing marks: Just a scar under his chin from skateboarding when he was younger.
Body hair: Has a fair amount of body hair, on his center chest, armpits, arms and legs.

Close Friend or relative: Lana Jenson, his older sister by 8 years.

Likes: The outdoors, a good story, a good mystery, nice clothes, his pet iguana.
Dislikes: The news, superficiality, parties where he doesn't know anyone, feeling inferior, feeling trapped.

Personality: Lars has a kind heart, but has a mean sense of humor and a slight pretentiousness to him. He likes making people laugh and feels awkward when he can't. Aware of his faults, Lars is always trying to better himself. He eats healthy, works out, and meditates on occasion. He is also very curious, reads a lot, and always willing to try something (or most things) at least once. He enjoys the simplicity of his life and tries to present himself as someone at peace, but always finds himself yearning for more.

Reason to be here: It sounded like fun and there was money involved. Lars has a dark sexual appetite that is rarely satiated. He definitely has limits, but could step over them if there was a reward. Sure, there was a chance that he'd be seen on the show and fired or scorned, but he felt that the chance was slim. The school he taught at was small, his friends were very open minded, and his family was very religious. Aside from that, who cared?

Chrystal

The same hassled looking young woman rushes along the corridor, looking for a particular room number. She pauses, and says into a headset, "Did you say 338? That room is empty... 336? Okay I'll try that one..." She taps on the door vigorously. "Mr Jenson are you there?",  When the door opens, she smiles her warmest thank goodness for that smile. "I'm here to take you to the green room".

She leads Mr Jensen to the elevator and takes him to the same green door. "This is the green room. Please wait in here until we are ready for you. Please help your self to drinks and snacks, complements of the management, You will find the other contestants waiting inside."




Hi Nailcrosser. Very nice character. Please join the others in the green room (link is in the first post here and in the other post featuring the harried Miss Clerk above.

Seems interesting, so I'm bookmarking it until I have time for an episode. Don't count me for the first episode though unless I post otherwise.

I'm starting episode one with the six players we have.

Sethala, Sarah and Rogue, please feel free to submit your contestant character sheets. Assuming they are approved, they will compete in episode two.

We need at least one more player for Ep 2, but I know of at least one person who is interested but waiting to see what happens - which is realistic as far as it goes, because Ep 2 contestants would probably get to see Ep 1 as I was imagining it would be broadcast live. We shall see.

"One thing you who had secure or happy childhoods should understand about those of us who did not, we who control our feelings, who avoid conflicts at all costs or seem to seek them, who are hypersensitive, self-critical, compulsive, workaholic, and above all survivors, we're not that way from perversity. And we cannot just relax and let it go. We've learned to cope in ways you never had to." ~Author, Piers Anthony

Chrystal

Welcome, Ember and Mysterica.

Please feel free to submit contestant profiles, either posted here or by PM to myself or AutumnRain.

You will be competing in episode 2, which will start as soon as two things happen: 1) I have episode 1 up and running, and 2) I have at least four character sheets for Ep 2.

If you miss the start of Ep 2, fear not, because I seriously hope that this will be a long-running game show!

Please be aware that ALL prize money is virtual.



That's a bit of a let down to be honest :D


I'm interested. How can I not be? Work is settling down in the coming weeks so plan me in for episode three or four or something. So I can read up on the others and think of a nice creative character.
Out here in the fields, I fight for my meals and I get my back into my living.

I don't need to fight to prove I'm right and I don't need to be forgiven.

*GLOMPS Dasha*

Hi babe. I was hoping you might show up :D

Which show you go in depends on how quickly your character sheet arrives.

So far, show 2 is empty, and the Celebrity Special has one volunteer.

AurelieCatena

Ah, politicians! What would they not do to gather more votes?

Mmmh, maybe you should play the famous lipsticked pitbull?

Chrystal

lol... You two really need to be locked in a small box together with a number of "toys"... *snigger*

What I'm after is fictional celebrities for the celeb special.

The idea came up because both Aurelie and Jez submitted characters who were in showbiz and wanted to use the show to further their own careers. Aurelie submitted a different character, while Jez toned down the minor celeb aspects of his and removed the bit about the agent wanting her to appear on the show.

If anyone else doesn't spot the very clear requirement for ordinary people that I added to the character requirements after those two characters came in, and submits a celebrity character (no matter how minor) I will give them the same options - edit or hold for the celeb special and submit a different character.
