Summer Tribe Award: Best Story

Breaking down the Summer 2009 "Tribe Awards" presented to KTDARPG players by the votes of their fellow players, with tributes to the show that continues to inspire us!

Category: Best Story
Winner: Joker vs. Hawk
Runner Up: The Summer Drought

All right, you have to start with your game storyline. We're usually juggling several at once so we asked, "Which current story thread do you enjoy the most?"

The answer was a strong one.

"Joker vs. Hawk" got 40% of all the votes. The plot is part of a more complicated assassins plot, but this scenario has very peculiar twists. Joker's told everyone he's an assassin, but he doesn't seem like he wants to do the job all that much. Soooo... Joker told the city kids one of THEM has to kill Hawk & bring him proof. Otherwise, he'll start blowing up bits and pieces of our city.

It's quite a dilemma. Hawk is a city hero. Who's gonna take her on? And yet if it will spare the city and other deaths, should she give herself up to fate? We will see...we will see.

The runner-up is more of an all-encompassing story. In the game, our landscape has been in a severe drought for something like 2 months. The drought's affected available water, food & other resources and created several different kinds of conflicts. It's not exciting and colorful but it IS something you can't ignore!

(Note: The drought recently broke and our city is currently having a great rain storm!)

When it comes to fascinating, interesting story lines, our game definitely has them. Assassins, the death of a river, new tribes, the intriguing return of past characters, grudges and plots...we can definitely say KTDARPG has something for everyone!
