Just that, heh.
I say no-one. Why? Because it's too early for me. And if it's too early for me, the rest of you aren't allowed to log in :evil:
Seriously? Who knows. But how long do we have to survive for it to be classed we didn't die in the HRPT? the next day? the next week? the next month?
Let's say at least through that RL day. :P
:runs into the desert screaming
Shout: WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!!!!
Depends.
If it's going to be a scripted event then no more then 5-10, though if it turns out anything like the pre-Liurs HRPTs.... well, I'd say now is a good time to write up a new character.
My guess is it will be another NPC heavy/PC spectator RPT, but I'm looking forward to it all the same.
Bah. You guys have it all wrong. Tek is just having his "once every King's Age" backyard cookout. He'll roast 10 PCs or so (first marinated in Tek's "extra spicy BBQ sauce" - available at a merchant near you!) as the main course, and one or two more will drink themselves to death on "Tek's Totally Titanic Tonic". So my vote was 10-15.
I am thinking blood bath.. Why? We just haven't had one in a while.. And it may be coming to a doorstep near you.. I always say, expect the worst and hope for the best..
But yeah, spend the week writing up your new PC.. Cause we're all gonna die!
You know, they should bring Halaster our of retirement for these things. Then we'd have a death count.
It just isn't the same without Halaster wreacking havoc all over the place...
Bah...halaster can suck my hazelnut. We don't need that guy to see some PC deaths.
What I'd REALLY like to see is not a count of how many PC deaths there were, but what the total day count for those PCs was. So the 14-day guy and the 5 1-day guys add up to 19.
Or maybe that'd be too depressing. A posting from the staff saying "317 days of playing time were just flushed down the proverbial commode." Ugh. :wink:
Piles of dead pcs lying everywhere....SWWWEEEET!!!
:twisted: LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOOOOORRRRR!!!! :twisted:
Wow, you didn't just quote from that horrible song did you? Eek, we -are- in trouble!
Oh no, an HPRT and I don't have a rinther to loot all the bodies. I -SERIOUSLY- hope its not a total bloodbath, because my character is new and I'm scared for him, a lot. But the temptation to log in is too great, so I'm pretty sure I ain't gonna survive.
I'm on my longest lived PC to date, and seeing the letters HRPT make me think the IMMs have noticed and are trying to tell me I've passed my limit, time for a new one! :D
All I can say is that I hope it turns out like Luir's.. that was some of the best RP I've ever had. Even though my character is 1day old, I'm hoping to be right in the action.
