Calvinball

*Which promptly respawns, seeing as this is a game and all. But katt can't find the ball! d'oh!*

If you wanna learn to play it right, it's on the nuklearpower forums, from the 8BT site.

[Cobra5]

I'm just goin' with the flow, mon.

[Jalathas]

not you specifically, just everyone in general.

[Tassatul]

but what fun is playing the game correctly?

[Jalathas]

When the game is arbitrarily random anyway, it really doesn't matter.

[copyKatt]

yeah, but i think that your actions have to have something to do with getting the ball... not just nukeing the world for no reason.

[Jalathas]

but really, they're just starting a new round, try it.

[copyKatt]

lol, nukeing the world or getting the ball?

[Jalathas]

calvinball on nuklearpower.

[copyKatt]

yeah yeah, i know, i was just yankin' your chain.

but massive boards scare me... theres usually too much stupidity in one area for me. but ive never really been to the nuklear power boards, so i cant really say from experience or anything.

[BugHunter]

Yea, i think huge boards are more of a hassle. Its either everyone knows you or nobody listens to you at all, period. Thats why i usually find myself not going back to huge boards, cus whats the point if everyone ignores you. And not to mention the before mentioned huge amounts of stupidity and biases and ignorances and perversions on those things... Its like Disneyland...the horror...

lol

[Cobra5]

Thats one of the reasons I started this one.

[Jalathas]

I'll just cut-and-paste some ideas then.

Edit: Here is the opening:

Calvinball:Combat Evolved

there is a deadly alliance of aliens that threatens th earth. mysterious and powerful . . . the Convent.

their stronghold is on a desert planet, where their source of power is located.

in the heart of the base, behind rings of defenses, an item that has power enough to destroy planets -

THE CALVINBALL!

now, you must enter the facility, defeat the convent, and retrive the Calvinball!

go.

A few people post about how they're heading into the Covenant base. The starter posts this:

Mad Jack the Spartan Pirate watched as everyone made their way into the covenant base.


...which was on the other side of the planet from the convent base, center of operations for the evil space nuns that looked nothing more than like a giant 16 century monastery built into the cliff.

"stupid idiots. geerrrooonnniiiimmmoooo!!!!!" jumping from his orbital pirate ship, he landed before the Convent monastery-base, finding his way in.
