The Fate Algorithm ~A Dystopian Role-play~ discussion

I know you have them!

How on earth did you get that chart wit the symbols! I nearly fainted. For your first group, you thought of everything!

Ikr?^ My first group was trash. This is amazing, Charlie.

Ditto with the group thing.

I had the chart already as a word document I took a screen shot, saved it as a jpeg uploaded it to the group and put it in as a pic.

Thanks guys. I had already spent hours pondering the world of Fotavis for my book, so this was just an extra step.

Thatll start soon, I promise.

We can get people to play the other roles perhaps.

where do you apply for being a scientist?

I will make the folder today, I promise :) sorry I've been lazy.

Hey Charlie! Question! In just about each "Character Application" place you say "If you make two or more characters you have to make at least one ______ (teacher, sentry, etc)". What exactly do you mean by that? Also who exactly are YOU, Charlie, in this? Are you a scientist Drudger, kid, Elitist, WHAT?

Okay so let's say you make two drudgers. The next character you make MUST be a sentry. I do this so some sentries/teachers get made at all.

It would be weird if someone made a bunch of one type of charrie, but none of the other. I'm just trying to spread it around a bit. Make sense?

Also, I am whoever I want to be. I can jump in the story as a supporting character if need be (a cashier or waitress etc)
I will also be filling in leadership roles that I need to control, especially in the spy rp, very soon. I can make my own characters if I want.
It kind of says this in the rules.

Ahhhh that makes sense... Thanks!

Another question, how many teachers are there per subject? For the trainee teacher, do they choose the subject they will eventually teach?

Yeah, for now there'll be one teacher per subject, but if you have a trainee, then they shadow/apprentice to a senior teacher

Okay then!

Awesome!

Where is Fotavis located in today's terms? I mean like how *the place hunger games takes place in" is America. How are the days measured? The way it is now (hours minutes days etc) or a different way? If it is still measured in years, are the years stil divided BCE (BC) and CE (AD) and the year is some crazy large number CE (AD)? Or some other way?

I based NAC off of NYC so it's safe to say that's in in America, like Panem.

Years? Humm.....
I'd say they started over at some point but don't have a 'name' for them, like CE or BCE.
They just...are.
I don't have a specific year, but if they started over when Fotavis was created it would probably be 400-500.
And days/minutes/hours/years are the same as they are now, to keep things simple.

THANK YOU!!!! As the "Old World History" Teacher I needed to know that. And is it okay I added an extra World War?

Are there other countries?

That's fine.

Tabitha wrote: "Are there other countries?"

None known to the public, not even the mayor.
Very few people have been outside the city at all.

Thank you and history wise, am I supposed to just focus on American history etc not European?

History itself American is good, but for the end of the world type things, go global.

Your course has a lot of warnings of what not to do, and a lot of propaganda on why Fotavis is so great.

Thank you for that

Glad to help! You're making me think! :p

And as two different teachers in this I say that is a good thing. Another question, if there are no other known countries how can I talk about global end of the world?

There are no known surviving countries, but they know of other countries that fell, (China India, etc) and they assumed that Fotavis was the only country to survive.





Oh and I originally intended Fotavis to span the entire globe! But it doesn't seem to be working out that way.

I think it might work better this way.

Okay.

How long are average classes?

Didn't you say you'd be in the spy room in 30 minutes an hour ago

Thnx

Is there a PA system, or something similar, in the presplit area?

Yes.

What exactly does rule 1 mean?

No playing other peoples characters or changing the plot yourself.

Good rule

Yeah. Thanks.
