New LA Business - Opening Week Credit Bonanza Started by: Axel on Dec 19, '16 21:51

Hi all :)

I'm trying something a little different here based on some conversations regarding incorporating the dice system with role playing.

The business is in the LA Business District and the whole theme is to role play a bank robbery, yet using dice bets beforehand to determine your success or failure.

 

For the first week the successes will be issued credits instead of the monetary value listed in the BA thread (found as a clickable link in the business itself or below).

For the first 72hours all successful bank robbery attempts will be paid out with 2 credits.

All unsuccessful attempts will receive 1 credit.

(make sure you read the rules and FAQ first to understand what is successful and what is unsuccessful)

At the end of the week I'll gift the top 25% of all role plays (determined by an impartial voter, might be a fury animal's paws).

 

For those that want to know how it all works (rules and FAQ) before any possible flight attempts, click here for more info.

 

StripheGotti's Chicago newspaper team have also issued a rather seemingly impossible task to get the BD's pumping, starting with LA. This business is also an attempt to see if the criteria they have given is in fact a little too hectic, or somewhat doable :)

Hopefully this will help them indirectly suss the system further and potentially tweak it so the competition gets some legs, as I'm a big advocate of having a thriving BD environment across the six cities.

 

Any further questions hit me up via MM or reply below.

Cheers guys.

Ok, ok. Let's kick this up a notch then.

The first person to successfully rob this bank will get 30 credits. Win 3 consecutive 10k 'TOPS' dice bets against me, role play the successful bank robbery in the bank thread and it's all yours.

The current rules also state you can only attempt to rob it (dice and role play) once every 72 hours. Let's change this to 24 hours also till someone succeeds. 

If you don't win 3 consecutive dice bets and still role play the unsuccessful attempt in the bank thread, you'll receive 5 credits.

No gimmicks. No bullshit. Just a little dice and some LA role play love. ;)

Nearly!!

Still nearly a 2mil profit, if accompanied by a role play in the bank.

 

30 credits still up for grabs!

Another near successful robbery! 2 out of 3 bank personnel subdued. He's making away with 5 credits.

Unfortunately for Jaryll this is the worst attempt at a bank robbery so far. Fortunately for those that do visit downtown Los Angeles it's one hell of a role played attempt. If anything, check out the bank for a good read. 5 credits go to the man for his efforts.

Still 30 credits up for grabs for the first successful attempt. The guard's lazy as fuck. Just bring some cookies or biscuits and you're two dice rolls away from living the high life! (yes, I can be bribed with food)

Ohhhh. I kind of nearly shit my pants on this one! Another near successful attempt. Knowing Alex, an epic role play will follow and he'll walk away 5 credits richer! Maybe more, who knows, I'm just throwing these fuckers away!

Easy as pie folks. Easy. As. Fuckn. Pie. Now send those dice bets over and grab a fork, cause there's still 30 credits up for grabs for the first successful bank robbery attempt!

Oh snap this is crazy, 2 out of 3 again! She'll be receiving a 5 credit shuffle once the role play is dropped.

Who's going to break this curse and break the bank?! The bank really hates you, I suggest robbing it to teach it a lesson in tough love.

He stumbled, yet finished the job strong! 5 credits to the man. His second attempt in as many days. This guy should be front page LA news.

I feel like the next one is the one that breaks the 2 out of 3 seal, and the bank vault right open.

Simple as mother fucking pie! First successful robbery attempt to the one and only, Conn! As soon as he drops his illustrious role play in the bank in LA he's got 30 credits coming his way. Not a bad haul. Not a bad haul at all!

The weekly credit bonanza is still on! Although the big ticket has been punched, credits are still to be had for all unsuccessful and successful attempts alike.

2 credits for every success, and 1 for every attempt, as long as they are accompanied by a role play in the bank thread itself. Don't forget the role play guys, it's all about that sweet sweet LA love. Show the city you care, grow a pair, and let's dice baby!

Ohhh 2 bank personal weren't having none of it! I wonder what happened? Hopefully the story hits the tabloids ala a role play in the bank thread itself. If so, an easy 400k ish via a credit. Still easy pickings if you ask me.

Maybe a second or third time is a charm, like what happened to Conn, the first to successfully rob the joint blind. It took him a second effort, maybe this is the trick?

Christmas Update!

Due to the busyness of the holiday season an influx of money and gold made it's way into the vault at The Hollywood National Bank of Los Angeles.

Moving forward and until things simmer down, attempted robbery payouts will be as follows: 

  • 3 credits per dice bet won (bank staff subdued) in a robbery attempt (1 dice win = 3 credits / 2 dice wins = 6 credits / All 3 dice wins = 9 credits).
  • A bonus gift for all Successful Bank Robbery, on top of the 9 credits.
  • These payouts are on top of and in addition to what's listed in the rules.

 

Rules are basically the same yet have been updated slightly.

Click here to read the rules or click the hyperlinked text The Hollywood National Bank of Los Angeles in the first post of the bank thread.

It was a great start to the attempted felony, yet something went wrong. An injury from a previous attempt, perhaps? Who knows, hopefully the local LA gazette can clue us in on what actually went down.

Still, I hear this Vegas real estate mogul is sitting pretty, walking away with a bit of moolah and the heart of the women behind the cashier counter. 4 credits if the story drops.

She came, he saw, she maybe got the wrong address? Who knows, something went wrong. Maybe she'll share the story and it'll reach the local business district.

Still, as it's the holiday season a nifty 4 credits in the stocking if the story does circulate.

Good effort, maybe next time and a reminder to all you can try again after 24 hours has passed. It took Conn a couple tries to hit the mother load, now he can buy that pimp cane he always wanted.

Ohhhhh! So damn close! This is when you blame the bank for being corrupt or run by gangsters, oh wait... I do wonder though, was it a broken heel or a jammed gun?

7 credits in the purse should we catch wind of what transpired.

My man! Two out of 3, ain't bad. Still a nice little profit from the bank if the story drops.

 

Not sure if you crazy donkey fiddlers actually read this stuff, but if you do, be sure to check out a joint in New York called 'When Symphonies Attack!'

It's more dicing fun combined with even more epic role play. Do it! And leave those poor donkeys alone!

Dalora the magic explorer! Out of the top hat with something Houdini like, or maybe it was destined as the second time was more than a charm. Just like Conn, she's going on the bank wall as one of LA's most wanted criminals.

Epic is as epic does. I would offer congratulations, but she just robbed a bloody bank! Shame on her!
