Event and Virus Suggestions mk II
RULES AND INFORMATION PLEASE READ
» Please be as detailed as possible so everyone can understand. A virus explanation that isn't clear is liable to lose that virus votes during polling.
» IF YOUR VIRUS NEEDS TO BE SCHEDULED AT A SPECIFIC TIME, CONTACT A MOD AND IT CAN BE PUT ON THE CALENDAR. OTHERWISE, IT WILL BE SUBJECT TO POLLING.
» Please don't just suggest a virus on a whim, make sure you've thought it through! We end up with such a massive backlog that we'll never get through them.
» Yays, nays, and suggestions are okay, but in-depth plotting should be done elsewhere. Please take personal conversations to IM, to stop page cluttering.
» The virus with the lowest number of votes during polling will be removed. There's no rule against re-submitting it (if for example you know it had support and it was just that specific month was bad timing), but given the amount of suggestions we get, it's just not feasible to leave them all on the poll.
» The mods reserve the right to veto or edit any virus or event.
» Any event that the characters themselves will be orchestrating, such as Death's Picnic, a Halloween party, or a bar crawl, are NOT events for the purposes of this post. Permission is not needed to run such events. However, if you know the event is going to be of a considerable size, please avoid scheduling it alongside other viruses or major events to prevent comm flooding.
» Any event or virus (NOT a personal event or virus) that would require mod approval for sensitive subject matter also goes here. It will be treated as its permission comment.

Golden Duck of Drama
Duration: 4 Days
Description:
Long ago, an ancient kingdom was lost to all the worlds when a great disaster slipped it into a pocket world inaccessible to even the great and powerful community of Drama Drama Duck. It is said every thousand years, when three unknown planets aligned in all worlds, a door to this pocket dimension appears and takes in chosen individuals to allow its quest for three days.
Here, in this Temple of the Duck, lies a mysterious treasure. There are rumors of a duck made of solid gold, its eyes encrusted with many rubies and its wings littered with a rainbow of precious gems. A divine treasure bestowed upon this universe by its long-missing gods, it is rumored to be capable of granting a single wish when the pocket world is touched by life from other worlds-- but beware! The temple is riddled with danger and stealing any other Treasures of Duck may have quite dramatic results.
Community members are mysteriously transported into an ancient temple, booby trapped to the teeth-- the classic boulder in a small hall to arrow darts, boxes rigged with poison, creepy ancient big-as-shit bugs, spiked walls, falling ceiling, rooms that fill up with water if you touch anything but the Golden Duck of Drama, etc. There's a whole treasure room filled with gold but upon arrival, each individual (characters may start in groups) ends up with only a brown satchel with one water bottle, a note that states the legend of the Golden Duck of Drama (above) and a warning not to touch any other treasure, and a totally random item (like a big list of items, then everyone who wants to participate gets one randomized by the mods or something so it's fair-- some cool/useful, some like. Empty Pez canisters. Characters can keep the items at the end of the event?)
Anything else: Uhh. IDK PROBABLY PUT PEOPLE IN GROUPS TO START WITH, then they can switch off as they please. Randomized maybe? Oh and there are torches in every room that mysteriously light as you approach them, like the refrigerated section at Target. Oh and if anyone actually gets the duck of drama, it can grant a wish but it only lasts for like one day and then everything goes back to normal.. and it's usually a messed up version of the wish (like in that movie Bedazzled).
