Winner: Schezo
The SDM is in panic. There is an unknown disease among all fairy maids, turning them even more useless than they were before. In this game, you become a servant of the mansion and try to survive your days as a sla?servant. You may have to respond to a call, or you may have to cook a dinner. Anything can happen and nothing will make sense in this game. Welcome to another Helepolis special. Good luck!

General rules
- Be active. Subscribe to the thread if you wish. I don?t expect you to be online 24/7 to play ultra active, but I don?t expect people to also slack/lurk. If you?re in, you should play. Because occupying a spot while not playing/caring is rude and disrespectful. Not only to me, but to others who wish to play.
- No drama in my games, period. Drama == Gungnir?d. Got an issue/conflict? PM me.
- Anybody is free to join, but I will backtrack posting history if you raise question marks.
- If you're an outsider/spectator or lost the game, please do not post.
- Player limit = 8
- Don't be afraid to point out mistakes if I make them. Ask questions inside the thread (if you need to) so we all can read them.
Game & rules
Game play involves a number of players, however, every person is an individual player and has to play for him or herself. Every round starts with a turn for all the players where actions can be performed or event being triggered. Here are the rules:
- Time limit to sent in commands: 24h using those online timer things.
- Every player plays for him or herself. Ganging is forbidden. Any signs will lead to instant loss and report to RPG forum moderators. We play to have fun, winning comes second in my game.
- There is no order of turn for submitting commands but there might be for execution/processing. Once the round is declared you may PM your actions.
- Most actions are announced in console so people can track/guess a bit what is going on. Certain actions might be hidden and therefore slightly tricky.
- Every personnel starts with 400 points. This is SDM budget, given to perform your duties.
- Every turn, you get +25 points added to your budget.
- Sometimes, bonus points are rewarded for being good boy or girl.
- If you want to go shop, you need to be at the gates and then use the ##Shop command. On your next turn, you may purchase and you are automatically returned to the gates.
- You got 10 units of life. Be careful. Life can be restored through items or effects
- Life is deducted by being attacked or unfortunate outcomes of certain events
- You may carry maximum of 5 items.
- Every players has CHA stat. It is gained or lost when you do something or something happens. It influences your game play if it is negative or positive.
- If you life reaches 0, you are fired/dead. You may not play/post any more.
How to play and map explained:
Every round, everybody sends in their commands. Dicing for movement is done last. This way we can create a movement -> action order for the next turn. For the first round, everybody will be random diced by me. You must walk if you dice, including in round 1. If you do not wish to dice after 1st round, you simply don't sent me a dice command. The goal of the game is to be a good girl/boy in order to earn points, survive and win. Doing good things earns reputation (CHA) or rewards (items/points). Doing bad things lowers your reputation and you might get hurt (--Life). If your life is depleted, you are fired/dead.
How a round flows:
1 - PMs are sent to the moderator with commands.
2 - Once all PMs are in, moderator processes the actions. (Calculations/processing movement etc.)
3 - Moderator performs AI processing (events, triggers, movement etc.)
4 - Results are declared, timer is reset.
5 - Round ends, next one is declared.
Sending PM
- Sent a PM with the title: SDMPC round X followed by your commands.
- I beg you to use only pure commands in the PMs to ensure smooth game flow. So please refrain from role play or story-based content. Example:
Title: SDMPC round 1
Content:
##Movement Gallery > L1 > L3
##Use <item>
##Socialize Remilia
Movement
Movement is done based on rooms or movement spots (circles). Lines between movement spots show the forced direction. You may move back if you wish, that is up to you. For example: Movement in living room has 3 circles but no lines, meaning you can free move between them. However, if you wish to pass to a room, you must be on the nearest circle (if present) else you may free choose.
Example of legal movement if you start on G0:
1) You have rolled 3 --> ##Move L1 > L3 > Kitchen (Living room has no forced directions, therefore you can move like this)
2) You have rolled 3 --> ##Move Gallery > F1> H3 (Stairway counts as room/movement spot)
3) You have rolled 3 --> ##Move Gallery > L1 > Bathroom 1 (you decide to only use 2 movement spots. Bathroom is only reachable through L1 (nearest))
Examples of illegal movement:
1) You have rolled 3 --> (if starting on Gallery) ##Move L1 -> Fun room -> B3 (you cannot reach fun room through L1, you must move to L2 first)
2) You have rolled 2 --> (if starting on G0) ##Move Gallery > L3 (you cannot reach L3 because you need to move to L1 or L2 first

Final info/tips
The mansion is large as you can see and lots of areas can be moved to. In each room or area, you may choose to perform commands such as ##Examine or ##use or anything. I am not going to reveal you what will work or not. It is matter of trial & error for everybody. Remember that you area employee, therefore need to mind the status of each room. Sometimes there will be a rush or race to conquer an area or earn reputation.
As a final note, 2 people in the same room cannot perform some social or chorus commands. Example: 2 people cannot clean a room, but can both use items or examine. Though this is written behind the commands so should be clear, hopefully.
