SUPER GRAPHITE FIGHTERS

a pencil fighting AW hack for 2 players

If at any time the other player isn’t doing what you want them to do, you can ridicule or cajole them until one of the following occurs:

– they comply

– they sort of comply, well enough to continue

– you give up in frustration and move on

– someone walks away (ending the game)

When another player makes it clear they want to pencil fight, you can do one or more of the following things:

– refuse

– make excuses

– agree with conditions

– agree

When both players have agreed to begin pencil fighting, decide who will begin as the attacking player and who will be the defending player.

When defending player holds their pencil horizontally with both hands, the attacking player can do some or all of the following:

– talk trash and ridicule the defending player

– tell stories about this other time they were pencil fighting

– complain about percieved or speculative noncompliance with the rules by the other player: past, present, or future

– hit the defender’s pencil with their pencil

While this is occurring, the defending player can do some or all of the following:

– retract their pencil from a vulnerable position

– make some noise about quitting the game

– ask for mercy

– make some unconvincing retorts

– complain about percieved or speculative noncompliance with the rules by the other player: past, present, or future

– recieve a blow on their pencil from the attacker’s pencil

When pencils clash, test the integrity of each one. Roll+total harm suffered so far; on a 12+, the pencil breaks; on a 10+, the pencil takes 2 harm; on a 7-9, the pencil takes 1 harm; on a 6-, the pencil is unharmed.

If a blow is agreed to be properly struck, the attacking player is now the defending player and vice versa. If the blow is found to be objectionable, the roles stay the same.

If one or both pencils break, determine if someone has clearly and fairly triumphed. If not, replace the broken pencil(s) and continue.
