The game?
Dodgeball with some of those quaffle.
1)Users enter the field and introduces him/herself.
2)Mod starts the game
3)players run for the 'balls', posting their individual actions aimed at another user.
4) The era? 5 years after Harry Potter left. The year is 2003. We do not have people playing who should be dead or non-existent.
The Rules:
1)You can't delete your post to change the result.
Those hit are out. You can be in the stands.
Those who are missed are still in the game. Keep at it!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The fun here? It's not serious. It effects no loop holes in time or serious world issues. You got hit? Turn it into a dramatic and long-drawn out affair, complete with swooning ladies and the crowd booing. You caught the ball? The marching band came though and the fans did the wave.
Will we actually commit to something that effects a worlds' fate? Inevitably. That doesn't mean today will be the day.
UPDATE:
Deleted profiles and edited the post where players are. It's a free for all and as such, there are no teams. That said, if honesty isn't your best policy, I've no idea how to solve that issue. Introduce yourselves back onto the field if you want to play.
You have a problem with a user who constantly avoids getting hit, ask why that's so first. Drag me in afterwards.

The players!Quote: World/mundo/monde:Name/ su numbre/nom:Gender/genero/sexe: *No excessive pictures, no huge pictures *No bright text. If we need sunglasses, it's too bright. *No song/flashing images/banner like things at the bottom of every post. *all players will receive one warning to change their post if they violate the Time/era rules or attempt to control other users. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ALL deleted rules no longer included: Teams, team profiles Ravenclaw-Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff-Slytherin
*other potential recruited other-worlders assigned to their team.*
Cast your die!___________________________________
Post "To be edited", with a 1-6 sided die.
1-2..hit. You've been hit with the ball. Get off the field.
3-4..miss. The dodgeball missed you. Pick it up and target someone else.
5-6..Caught the ball. The player targeting you is out.
4)Those being aimed at roll a six sided die with a "TBE" and react accordingly, by editing their post.
2)Accept your fate the die casts. Have fun with it.
3) It's a regular old fashioned quaffle. It's staying that way.
4) Natural or "unnatural" elements may send the ball in a new direction. Do not go beyond the norm. There is no tornado, flood, or torrential rain.
5) No wands. All offensive/defensive moves should involve your hands and the ball.
6)No summons that aren't naturally seen on a soccer field. That means the dragon stays home. Also, your broomstick, and Hippocampi.
....6a) tag replacements exception.
.......So you're going out of town for a bit, but your character isn't hit yet. You won't have cell phone service even, or the dice roll isn't an option. This is your solution if you know you won't be able to respond for a while.
A) Go back a few pages, or look in the stands.
B) Find a user who was hit and is out of the game.
C) If both you and the user agree, he or she can take your place until you return. If the replacement is hit during your leave, you're out of the game. If your replacement is fine, they go back up in the stands, and you resume your position.
D) Introduce the tag replacement. I don't care how. Summon them by portkey, throw them from the stands, force them out by a sudden tornado..
so long as the obviously freak event doesn't hit the field, they are playing for you. So long as me, you, and the user aren't the only ones who know, its cool.

Basic Dodgeball rules for dummies (or those of you who went to gym class after it was banned)
The scene: Two teams, even/ uneven..doesn't matter much.
The theme: Violence! Action! Targeting a player on the other team.
1)Throw the ball at the other team, while trying to aim at one user in particular in this case.
1a)You've been hit! Now what?
.....You get off the field. That's it. One hit, and you've 'died' as it were.
1b)You've been missed! Now what?
.....You stay on the field and pray you can keep dodging the ball.
1c)You've caught the ball! Now what?
.....You celebrate internally and prepare for your target. The one who threw the ball at you is out. They get off the field.
In this case, you quote the user you're targeting, and make a show of throwing the ball at them. You cannot tell them how they reacted or if the ball hit/missed them.
1-quote user/player
2-post yourself throwing the ball
3-react appropriately
A user, can in fact, be ganged up on. One of the reasons it was banned in gym class in the first place. It's no different here. A user can be targeted several times at once.
On the behaviors of the audience:
Yes, you can sit in the stands and roleplay your viewing. Just don't interrupt the players, ergo...don't quote them. Comment on them if you'd like, but if you need to quote someone, quote other other audience members in the stands.
1)No quoting players.
2) No throwing stuff at them. Players themselves will decide if stuff is thrown.
3) Judge the players if you'd like, but remember, it's a dodgeball R.P. game. We are playing a character. Do not use actual usernames, lest someone feels they're being spoken of in a manner that violates Terms of service.

Your example:
Team A-Bob-male
Bob threw the ball, with the intent to take out Wands. He saw his opening, ducked some players who'd chosen to jump over several heads to avoid the sudden onslaught of balls headed their way. Roaring, he only just avoided stepping across the line, watching it bee-line for Wands legs.
*No Cyan, yellow, or rainbow.

Example response (Wands was targeted, now she reacts.) Team B-Wands-FemaleWands dodged the ball, hearing it whistle past as she twisted in midair, the ground passing her head along with the ball. She breathed a sigh of relief and decided she'd have to get him back for that attack, but first, John. He'd been exceptionally good at dodging so far, it seemed. [500 x 500 image here.]

An scruffy Gym teacher in a stained shorts and a baseball shirt comes out to the field, a large area with four walls, a center line, and a fence to protect the audience in the stands from flying objects. The stadium seats plenty, but like all by-gone soccer fields, they lie mostly empty, with candy wrappers underneath, and dents atop.
The gym teachers puts the to teams behind their respective white lines, lines no player will cross if they want to keep playing the game. Dropping red dodgeballs on the center line, some abused..others deflating, he backs off onto a volleyball judges chair and prepares to blow the whistle. This is the one chance for all players to get their ammunition and return to the safe zone behind the line!!
Introduce yourselves!

The lanky teen approached his side of the field, a purple vest on his back. Looking at the other side of the field, his keen eyes picked up on several individuals, but he didn't recall seeing any one of them in his prior activities.
Having randomly chosen the Gryffindor team, he'd assume there'd be more on his side. He was wrong, as usual.
Doing some stretches, he noticed the stands almost devoid of life, short of two couples who seemed to be arguing and a kid who seemed to have bought out the candy kiosk. Walking to the center line, he bowed to the others. Green eyes searching their individual features, presented himself.
"I'm Ross, and I expect nothing but failure today."
The angry couple scoffed, but at least they were getting a show. He'd be slaughtered, but he'd go down fighting.

The slender blond strolled onto the field, hand shoved deep in his vest pockets, the chocolate brown eyes narrowed to slits as he looked around. There seemed to be only one person on the Gryffindor team, and including him, three people on the Slytherin/Hufflepuff team.
The tall boy on the opposite team walked over to the center line and bowed, introducing himself as Ross.
"Nice meeting you, Ross," he said politely, bowing in return and offering a hand. "My name is Shirav. Shirav Antounie. Slytherin and son of Apollo. I look forward to playing against you."
The couple in the stands moaned and booed. Shirav rolled his eyes. "Pay no mind to them. They're idiots, anyway. Just do your best."
Snatching up two of the balls in relatively good condition, he backed away to the safe zone, nodding to the rest of the players. "May the best man win."

The gym teacher looked at his watch from atop the chair. " One excused delay, but another? Melodramatic much, Girlie? Once the queen of England finally shows up, the game can start in earnest." Coughing violently, he leaned on his elbows waiting for the third individual to get this small formality over with. He wasn't paid to baby-sit, dern it! *Your intro is in Testing. In case you were interested, I'm not staying up 11PM.*

A beautiful lady goes to walk slowly to the Slytherin-Hufflepuff side of the field, knowing its likely she may have to expect another 'Maternal' cousin of hers already in the field.
Never wanting to brag about any connections her father may have with anyone, the most she'd hope would be noticed was her own innate powers, as she was never one to brag about her ancestry,'Father's ancestry included the likes of Herakles, otherwise known as Hercules to most people, on that list, I fear for father's safety so as a result, I intend to make this quick and pay for Ross's medical insurance for whatever injuries he gains,' as when the lady goes to step out and walk to where this 'cousin' in question of hers was at.
Checking to look up the blond fellow's Aura, she was able to trace a distinct
form of power, outlining that he has the blood of the gods in his veins,'Which god in particular?There's many and it doesn't seem likely its either Mother's or Selene's, former's my mother and I'd know if we're half-siblings and latter has been missing for centuries!' as the lady goes to look at the lad, only able to track that his father was mentioned,'I didn't go as to check which gods were in his family tree, because I wanted to help him keep his decency, but the fact he willingly stated which gods are in his bloodline on the open like that...'
The lady goes to step behind him, only aware that a lot of guys are staring at the screen presenting her.
The guys, mostly the ones who are single, were pretty much cheering for the lady's arrival, to a lesser degree as they would on Ross but it still exists,'I'm not even sure if its primarily due to my looks and these people are desperate, or they might have sensed my powers, either way I'm neither in the mood or the time for dates, perhaps when Father and the convoy's not threatened,' as the lady still hears a lot of other females in the audience on the verge of screaming in fear of her looks, as if they were weary on what she would do with their emotions or their minds, whichever gets attacked first.
'People fear that if people like me use our powers to enhance our messages, we can use their listening against them, to be fair they might be right,' the lady sighed before she looked at Shirav and then at Ross opposite the two.
'Pleased to meet you, I guess,' the lady said, before briefly shaking one of Shirav's hands.
She then looked at the audience and stated as much to the Audience aloud,I'm not much for formalities, but I'm Elissa Alvizu, Aphrodite's my mother and I'm assuming only people invited would have the audiences on board, with that, Elissa sighed as she goes to make distance, respecting the fine line between her side and Ross's own.
I admit its sort of funny, to hear how often Mother's case gets in the kind of predicament the Hufflepuff house gets caught with, isn't it?
as Elissa hoped to be brief about stating a fact, not only in doubt that Mother's bloodlines were the only ones hit by that, or at least with the more mortal groups, but that they were alone in this respect either.
I can't keep track but Hestia gets hit by that alot, Mother's lines might be 2nd or 3rd place in top 10, Elissa said to Shirav,I don't recall if we've met before by chance, we might be cousins but most of the ones I met on mother's side were either from America or Eastern Europe, rarely any British cases,
With that, Elissa goes to brace herself for what might be happening next.
