Read 'em and weep

SO. I’m not off hiatus yet, but… if you missed my post on the CR Meme last month, Tonegawa’s staying true to his word and holding that poker game after all. I just thought I should gauge interest again and see if people are still up for it.


FOR THE NIGHT ITSELF: He’s going to be keeping things low-stakes to try and keep the peace a little, so there’ll be no minimum bet. That said, as I mentioned before, Tonegawa will be cheating towards the end of the night. He’ll be using his powers (convincing people that whatever he says is true for around fifteen seconds) to make people believe that the trash hands he claims to win on are actually of a much higher value, then reshuffling the cards before it wears off. The more he does it, though, the weaker its effects will be, so anyone and everyone are free to call him out after a few rounds!

If anyone else wants to pull something off as well, you’re very welcome to! Just say so here so anyone who could figure it out/ who would like to be tricked/ whatever can know about it.

ALSO: any idea of how to set things up? I’m not sure how to go about it without everyone having to play through a whole game. Sub-headed threads, maybe, with different things happening? Or like a pre-post mingling thing?

If you didn’t say anything before but want to get in on this now, you’re very welcome to just sort of turn up. So long as you aren’t obviously just trying to start trouble and call him up before hand, Tonegawa’ll probably let you in. I’ll be putting up a log on Wednesday or Thursday!

EDIT: I totally forgot about the outbreak, so I'll be pushing this forward to early June. Sorry about that!

Yessssss. I think early June is a good time, Raul is planning another NPP fundraiser type thing once the Outbreak begins to clear up, so he'll be able to talk about it to his fellow Poker buddies. Which sounds so awesome, god, yes.

WELL. Once the effect starts to weaken, Raul might take notice. And he'd be pissed. Mostly because he's not that great at poker, and if someone starts cheating, he'll really lose a lot of money.

As for setting it up, I think having sub threads would be good? Sort of like how we did the NPP meetings.

Sorry about the confusion there! I took my hiatus before the Outbreak plot started, so I completely forgot that it even existed, haha.

He doesn't have to worry about losing money, btw, unless he's really going to be betting a lot? After making an ass of himself with the whole Pride thing Tonegawa's going to be keeping his own bets relatively low.

BUT YEAH that would work for sure! I wasn't sure if it was going to be big enough, but awesome. B)

It's okay! I keep forgetting it's going on for awhile, so I needed to rearrange a lot of plans, too.

BUT YEAH UH. Raul would bet a lot. Unfortunately. He'll be losing a lot of money by the end of the night.
