TINY CAT: RISE TO THE TOP!

[cosmo]

tiny cat: rise to the top!
tiny cats compete for greatness in this exciting new competition!

rules

gameplay

• three rounds in a match, each round eliminates the bottom three tcps (in the even of a tie for 7th, 4th, and 1st place a straight coin toss decides the victor)
• tcp compete on a series of 9 obstacle courses (3 are randomly selected each match) 
• base roll for each round is 1d10 plus stats (including bonuses given by the course) 
• each tcp starts with 2 “features” (types, conditions, anomalies, and modifiers) 
• (designer modifier is not counted as a feature and all tcps are designer)

betting

• bet currency on which tcp will win each match 
  
• players start with 200 currency 
  
• get twice back the amount you bet if your tcp wins + the amount other players bet divided equally among the winning players 
  
• if your tcp is knocked out in the first round you get no payout, in the second you are returned a quarter of your bet, in the third you are returned half your bet (rounded down, returned currency is not counted in the winners’ pool) 
  
• players can bet on multiple tcps in a single match
  
• every match a player sits out for gives them 10 currency (must explicitly say they are sitting out before the match starts) 
  

shop

• players can purchase new features for their chosen tcp 
  
• blessings: players can purchase a god’s blessing for an upcoming match, they wear off after the match (not literal blessing but specific advantages themed after a morbit god)
  
• a competing tcp may only receive one blessing per match and multiple tcps can receive blessings from the same god.
  
• players may transfer currency to other players. they may not do this in exchange for anything outside of tc: rttt. the exchange may be a gift, or it may be the players pooling their money to purchase a shop item. the player doing the purchasing has the final say on what is bought, though a plan may be worked out with the transferring players in the discussion thread(s). do not loan players currency or expect them to pay you back.
  

other

• there is an in-character chat thread here where you can roleplay as morbitians following/betting on the game!
  
• the ooc discussion thread can be found here.
