So, the Ultimization Game is on hiatus, so I figured we could try something different in the interim.
The premise is similar to the old game, but instead of trying to work pre-existing characters into the Ultimate Universe, the idea is to sketch out a new iteration of the Marvel Universe built around a common conceit, a la Gaiman's Marvel 1602 or Marvel 2099. You can either sketch out how the whole universe will work, or bits and pieces. Before we start the game, I'm going to use this thread as a barometer for interest in the game. I'll post the rules here, as well as a survey of five potential what-if scenarios. Check any that you realistically see yourself competing in. If we get a good enough turn-out, I'll start rolling with the game next Sunday. We can also use this thread to hammer out the rules in a fashion that will make everyone happy.
I figure, each game will run approximately a week and a half. Each new round needs to go up by midnight EST on Sunday. It will go for a week and a few days, with entries ending midnight on Thursday. Voting will open up as soon as the round is closed, and will run until midnight on Saturday. The winner will need to have the next round posted by that Sunday at midnight. Other than that, the rules will run pretty much exactly the way the ultimization game does. It will run for five rounds, at which point we'll move on to a different game. To start off, I'm going to put a few different options for ultimization, just to make sure that we can find a topic that generally interests people.
Edit: So.... err...... I forgot to post a poll. Ah-heh)
