So, the idea behind this thread is that we are going to construct our own text adventure. What happens is, at the end of each post, a person leaves a prompt with a command, like so:

> look around

The next poster must then write the output of that command, and then write his own command to be answered at the bottom of his post.
There will also be a small set of generally recognized abbreviations:

> i -- > check inventory
> e -- > east (same for all cardinal directions, including stuff like nw)
> l -- > look around
> l <object/person> -- > look at <object/person>
> t <person> <words> -- > tell <person> <words>.

> w -- > wait

for clarity, please leave a line between your answer and your command.

This is a text adventure, no pictures please.

If two people post an answer at the same time, ignore the second answer and command.

No game overs.

(Regarding realism, this is a mixed bag. A realistic adventure is fun. But so is an adventure filled with cyborgs and random stuff breaking through half of the house. Just try to keep it to one of the extremes. A half realistic adventure is not fun at all.)

(Regarding reseting, try to only do this if the main character dies, or has basically no more options. Do not reset to arbitrarily end a story path you do not like.)

No unneccessary pain/death/injury. This is not "Bad Luck Brian."

(Suggestion, not required): Rolling a die or using an RNG can be a fun way to make choices, feel free to include the rolls and/or required roll to pass in the post. You can also ask the next player to roll a die and post the score, though I don't know how well that will work. Of course, no one is stopping you from making a roll up...

Now, let me start this.
