Its the problem with firearms - fire your pistol then discard and draw the sword...in the dark that can mean you don't get it back - though it was a bowie knife i had to go back and search for in the daylight.
Is a fantastic site though, harsh on kit and you take half of it with you, but good fun all round :)
Actually, it's a touch dodgy in terms of IC/OOC - because all the 'actually dead' people (in character) are also playing dead (out of character) it's a little unfair to 'play dead' IC. Might have to keep thinking about that one :)
To be honest, if it'd been light i'd have been 'got' as i was still moving and making noise (though not much), as it was dark it wasn't too bad - but you make a good point.
I'm told its completely banned at CP, though not by anyone 'official'.
The problem is that the monsters can't tell the difference between you playing dead with no injuries, and you with bloody rents all over your body. IC, the rents would be obvious. OOC, they (hopefully) aren't.
I think it's legit to stay down if you're down as a result of injuries, but I'd probably RP looking around a bit and shifting, to be fair.
Yes. It's a tactic it makes sense to use IC, but I don't want to do it unfairly OOC. I wouldn't do it without getting hit at all, but it's a 'take one hit, fall over' instead of a 'take three/four hits, fall over' thing.
