I apologize if I’ve gotten any genders incorrect, please correct me in your round two email (if there IS one!).

**Sn-Man** bends over to pick up a shiny new sackie he sees lying in the dust. WOOSH!!! A bullet goes flying right over his head!!! As he looks around to find his would-be assassin. . .

**Fairy Princess Kitty’s** gun trembles as she slowly lowers her arm. The gun drops to the dusty ground as she draws her terminal breath and doubles over in agony from the bullet piercing her heaving chest. . .

. . .the bullet from the smoking gun of **lurkernomore** , who feels a sharp pain. Trying to find the source, he notices a bullet lying on the ground directly below him, and surely enough, there is a dent in his large belt buckle. He looks up to see. . .

**Mega the roo** staggering around on the balcony of the saloon. “It’s only noon! She can’t be drunk!” He moves in a little closer to listen. “I [gasp] must now declare. . .that my descendants [wheeze] and the descendants [cough] of **Sledman** will forever [groan] be locked . . . in an. . . eternal . . . . . .”

**Sn-Man** , feeling pretty lucky about now, decides to bet his shiny new sackie in a poker game, and to make sure he doesn’t lose it, he hides an ace up his sleeve. “I knows ya’ got an ace up yer sleeve, Sn, it th’ oldes’ trick ‘n th’ book!” says **Kat** , the dealer. She proceeds to whip out her two six-shooters and pump him full of lead.  
So, the death toll for round 1:

“ **I’m your HukleBerry!!!** ”  
My hit is 80 and my defense is 20 because I am too drunk to run away!!! I am shooting at all the bad guys 😃

How did I do???

BTW, I am wearing class four body armor, and it is impenatrable by your puny American weapons!!!

Is it okay to use other weapons? I would want to use things like:  
\*a water pistol full of ammonia  
\*a zip-gun  
\*the world’s biggest custard pie  
\*a special device like a slingshot, that fires a live skunk.  
\*a Johnson Smith crossbow. (WOW!)
