Barely Street Legal League [SURVEY ON PAGE 70]

[EnryGT5]

(ooc) Oh my... Enry's heading straight towards the fight between Kristina, Strop and the power tools, i wonder what's going to happen there

[strop]

[ooc] actually enry is headed in the wrong direction I'll set up a map to show everyone what's going on.

[8bs]

Man what a hellllllllll

[OOC: what a green helllllllllll]

[ooc] lol! with no offense to you and to skoda!

[strop]

[OOC] Okay guys, I had to take a bit of a break today from writing to get back to planning, because, as you know, things are complicated in the story right now

Here is a map of where everybody happens to be where last we left off the action. Apologies for the size, Nordschleife is a big place!

On the plus side, I have one more night of big writing to do, and then finally, I will be able to reveal the final results in the Crazy Wheels stakes, and therefore, the FULL results of the BSLL! (And then those of you who want to stick around for the post-league resolution, you are welcome to read the epilogue). How will it all end!?

[Pleb]

Damn! I was hoping I could simply run away from the German Police! Ah well, it had to end some way or another, at least I didn't end up like Roland and 8bs...

[strop]

[ooc]Technically there are a couple of slight inaccuracies or liberties in the map:

1) Pleb was last seen running away from the cops, but I didn't actually state he got arrested. For the purposes of the story, it won't make a huge difference either way.
2) I got Kai's location wrong, he's actually moving back in the right direction now, but I didn't suggest that in the story either. More on this later.

I've got like a 13 point plan set up for the resolution of this debacle, which will hopefully be posted Thursday evening!

[EnryGT5]

(ooc)I don't understand what happened to Enry, he avoided Kai and Sam, who where travelling in the wrong direction, and ended up chasing them? If that happened, the X90 should have passed on the straight maybe ten seconds after Sam, or did i get confused?

[VosNox]

[ooc] Where the hell is Vos on that map?

[Cen]

1) Enry was chasing Kai and Sam (arguably, if I saw someone turn tail and go the other way as fast, I would probably have joined too), and is now going the wrong way around towards the road block (as of snapshot of map)

2)

[VosNox]

[ooc] Nice catch.

[07CobaltGirl]

[OOC] Nothing else matters as long as the bitch and the moustache DIE!

[strop]

[OOC] that would be ex-moustache, seeing how Vos burnt it off earlier

Planning completed, writing commencing!

[07CobaltGirl]

[OOC] His name can still be moustache!

[VosNox]

With each passing foot, Vos' anger grew. Each rattle, each pop and each his drove him to madness. His ride was all but done. How, the name of all things holy it had not burst into flames and consumed him in one last hellish display of defiance was something he would never know.

While reloading and re-arming his arsenal, he heard a quick blip over his coms. "Sir...." -brief static- "We've picked up more incoming traffc." -slightly longer static- "...And... It's not just police..." Vos' heart sank. "I don't know if you're aware of this... But, apparently, there are vehicles spilling out all over the track. They have cameras. Someone leaked the story. This entire thing... This... Everything is being televised live..."

[strop]

[ooc] I probably should have set firmer rules from the outset, but as this was an impromptu exercise, I'm going to have to redact as I see necessary, which is always less satisfactory:

Nope, sorry, not allowing this to be televised live. That breaks the rules of the universe. Currently, Nordschleife is under military contention. Any civilian who is somehow in the area may be recording snippets of this as amateur footage, but the reason the area was eerily quiet (you may have forgotten I mentioned this in the story before), was because it was an international law enforcement ambush (with a very tentative cooperation that got completely broken when a lot of unauthorised parties started doing a lot of unauthorised things). And when something like that takes place, people in the surrounding area get evacuated. So those people will definitely be thinking something is up, but if a television crew even so much as approaches this area, they're going to get shut down very quickly. And aircraft will be shot down (since everybody is already trying to shoot each other down).

The overriding law of the universe is consequence. If this goes on the news, and people manage to put two and two together beyond unfounded rumours, then you would think that there would be legal consequences for all participants involved. That's too much, and I'm not prepared to foist that on everybody here. And it will completely screw up the bits I do have planned, and I'm not prepared for that either

Trust me, there WILL be parts of this that do get televised, but sufficiently confusing and disjointed such that this won't happen.

p.s. given that a BSLL 2 will happen, there will be just as much madness, but I will be setting actual universe rules, and they will actually be enforced. If anybody breaks those rules, they will face in-universe consequences with much more permanence, which may affect their tournament results. This will encourage people to think carefully with what they decide to do in character. For example, Tom adding those jump jets to the Brimstone after round 5? I'd go back and add about 250kg of internal weight to the model and alter the results from there. Flagrantly get into trouble with authority? You may miss any number of races or even, if bad enough, be ejected from the tournament. Rayyan hitting on other player characters, well, that won't necessarily carry any consequence on the results That kind of thing.
