You're a Pokémon in a Cool contest...

Sat Apr 4, 2009, 9:08 AM
:pokeball: You're a Pokémon participating in a Cool contest. You've got one shot at winning.

Tell me, briefly, in a reply to this journal:

:bulletpurple: What Pokémon are you (species, gender, and name)?
:bulletpurple: What single move are you using?
:bulletpurple: What makes you so cool?
:bulletpurple: How much hubris do you have (on a scale from zero to five)?

(Hubris is excessive pride or self-confidence.)

Here's the deal:

I'll roll six-sided dice equal to one plus your hubris.
:) Do I see at least a single one? You succed! You get a ribbon.
:( Otherwise, you fail! You're not good enough, you do not get a ribbon.
:noes: If you fail and I see a six, you screw up badly. It won't be pretty.

I'll describe how it plays out, in a reply to your comment.

When I'm done with this contest, I'll post the Pokémon with the lowest total score for each of the three categories. Perhaps I'm gonna draw them too, depends on the turnout.
:) Succeded with best score? You're best of show!
:) Failed with best score? You're crowd favorite!
:noes: Screwed up badly with best score? You're a public disgrace!

:plotting: Let's see who enters this contest...

Ermmm... wouldn't every one pick zero as their huber-wuzit, though? That's the only way they could possibly get a one. ^^;

You never really do know where your mind is capable of taking you until you let it drift on it's own.

Example time!

You say you're Fluffy, a female Eevee. You're going to use the move "Focus Energy". You're so cool because you're wearing dark sunglasses. You're full of hubris, so you have 5.

So I roll 1+5 six-sided dice. I get the following results: 1, 3, 3, 4, 5, and 6. There's a 1 among them, so you succeed! Your total score is 22.

So I describe something like how you're getting all pumped, being so damn cool in your sunglasses. The judges agree, so you get a ribbon. Yay you!

That's it.

Of course it's just an example. You could also fail or screw up badly. That's the thrill.

At least one of the dice needs to come up as a 1. That's all that matters. The more dice, the higher your chances of getting at least a single 1.

Hubris is excessive prive or self-convidence.
:) So, how much do you have?
:iconflamebunny700:
Ohhh.
What's a hubris? :iconnyoronplz:

Ohhhhh, I see, they're the number of dice rolled, not if it equaled... okay, I was thinking of something totally different. XD
