Lilis & Taisho Roman Revolution (Day 1)

[idolpro]

[ Standing on the deck of a grand galleon rocking in the midst of clear, turquoise waves. In front of your boat is an island--deserted, of course--and next to the steering wheel you'll find two large chests, one filled with bags of gold and the other filled with dark, round, innocuous looking balls, as well as two maps--one clearly depicting the uncharted island in front of you, and the other--a treasure island. And apparently just for shits and giggles, there's a pile of pirate-themed accessories in your unit color(s) you can put on--eye patches, plastic swords and water pistols, fake stuffed parrots, bandanas, a Captain's hat--even a peg-leg or two.

Your phones chime and instructions to choose where to hide both the treasure and traps on your island based on your map appears. ]

[ Players, note that you have until 6pm PST/9PM EST to make sure your unit's card is completely filled out and ready to go! Feel free to thread out burying the treasure, just selecting the spots, or fighting over the accessories, whatever floats your literal boat. ]

A warning whistle resounds from the boat signaling game start, and the ship pulls away from the shore. It steers itself to a new island--one that looks just like the one on the bottom map/grid. Your phone updates with new instructions now:

Avast! Find as much booty as ye can while avoidin' the traps set by other scallywags. Six be the magic number o' plots ye can search each time.

Why do they call it a 'booby trap'?
