Title: The Roleplay Arena #1: Crossing the Chasm
Post by: Sir_Stabbalot on May 11, 2007, 01:45:34 AM
Hello, and welcome to the first (and hopefully not last) Roleplay Arena! I will present a situation for you, and you must pass it. The best answer wins the prize of ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! The rules are as follows:
-You aren't a Jedi. You have no superpowers. You're only human. -You have only the items stated. -You can't phone a friend. -Simplicity is best, but complexity is much funnier.
So, let's get started.
You've come across a deep chasm about 20 feet wide. You have a spool of Kevlar thread, some paperclips and a rubber band. Nearby you see a lone chicken. What is the best course of action?

Wot? No straw?!
Thread tied to paper clip that has been twisted into a harpoon. Fire harpoon at chicken with rubber band. Go home to eat chicken.

Fixed.
Well in Ocarina of Time, I grabbed the chicken and floated across the chasm.

ShyGuy took my idea.
Anyways, you tie the Kevlar to two paper clips, and then use the rubber band to launch one of the paper clips across the chasm until it sticks to something strong enough to support your weight. Then you throw the Chicken across, to save for later, and attach the paper clip with kevlar over on your end to something that can support your weight. Of course, these are industrial super-strength paper clips, those giant ones, since you didn't specify. Now you hang from the kevlar and go across. The chicken will be useful to make jokes and keep yourself entertained.

If you're looking to get across the chasm, just take the bridge man. If not, finish looking at the view and get out of the way of the bridge. Some of us are trying to cross it so we can use the garbage bin on the other side. I've got a bunch of junk in my pockets to get rid of. Some string, paperclips, a rubber band.

1. Strike up a fast friendship with chicken. 2. Name chicken ("Clucky"). 3. Make musical instrument from paper clips and rubber band. 4. Play instrument for your and Clucky's enjoyment. 5. Make hammock from kevlar thread. 6. Take nap in hammock.
...Who said you have to get across the chasm?

dammit khush, I was gonna say that.
So since I cant go with the Duh answer, lemme think..... Why do I need to get to the other side in the first place, this "Role Playing" lacks motivation.
Bah! I hope your precious bridge collapses and you fall to your death. Im gonna go to KFC and get a chicken thats already cooked.

Khush was close, but as a wise man once said, "YOU'RE WINNER". I deliberately left out any reason for you to cross the chasm. Seriously, who would trust their lives to some paperclips?
Zach has one point. Everyone else has a whole lot of nothing.
