A real life example happened with Mr. W, who managed to archive binge through the thread in two days. When no one else who attempted could bear to finish.
Bilingual Bonus: Otaku and Firestarter have a conversation in spanish. Then Queen chimes in with latin. Eventually we're all discussing in various languages and how bad we are at them.
Channel Hop: A particularly sudden example, the thread was quietly moved to the Role Playing section. See the entry on They Changed It, Now It Sucks for more details.
What made it worse was that Gold asked the mods to move it with out consulting the others first, leaving most people confused about where it went.
The thread's activity dwindled as a result of this.
Character Development: Many of the tropers end up much different from when the entered.
Chaste Hero: So far, only Mr W, Anomalocaris, and a few newcomers have remained this way.
Early Installment Weirdness: Inverted... kind of. It starts out as a cliche Sex Comedy sort of sleepover, but then it quickly derails into the the quite insane form it is today. On the other hand, for people more used to the insanity, the game's early format would probably be... strange for them.
Eldritch Abomination: They appear from time to time. Most of them are friendly. The rest, not so much.
Eldritch Location: Anom and Megamagikarp once got stuck in alleyway that was one of these, with a very strong rainstorm and brick walls that closed in on them when the weren't looking at them.
Gender Bender: More than a few participants had their genders switched when the avatar curse came along.
Recently, Katana Cat was turned into a boy by an evil wizard. (S)he almost immediately complained that this would "make my singing Hikaru Michi sound completely wrong."
Inner Monologue: Black Hole has these from time to time. Mostly during stressful situations, like when she was being chased by the cops with Tre riding shotgun.
At times, her inner voice isn't very nice.
Tre himself has one just after his Heroic BSOD / Not Himself moment with Queen, and it isn't very nice toward himself.
In-Series Nickname: Anom, Fire, Black, Queenie,and most other names are shortened.
Jade-Colored Glasses: Particpants that don't end up completely bonkers from the insane happenings end up cynical.
Kissing Under the Influence: Gold and Queen almost sleep together after getting ahold of W's distilled wheat alchhol. Luckily, Gold sobers up and refuses before anything happens. Then Queen rapes him.
And later on a trip to Egypt, everyone gets one after eating some cacti. Mega attempted to solve the problem by feeding those still afflicted mushrooms, but he only made things worse.
No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: What happens to poor Mr. W and queenofdarkness when they provoke Anomalocaris.
No Periods, Period: Subverted by queenofdarkness, who apparently turns into a tree every month.
Only Sane Man: A lengthy conversation is had determining who is and is not sane. It's eventually decided Firestarter and Black Hole are the sanest, followed closely by Mr. W and Sadist.
Yuri Fan: Mr W, Compassionate Sadist, queenofdarkness, and Anno.
Artistic License - Biology: At one point, Black Hole was afraid to burn a sack of cupcakes, because she feared the sugar will get into the atmosphere and make every one diabetic. Somewhat justified, as the cupcakes were so sugar-loaded they probably would somehow.
is a Play By Post Game created by Suke Sho. The premise is simple: the participants are at a teen sleepover.Okay, that doesn't cover even half of it.The thread quickly derailed into a mishmash of insanity and randomness, involving giant hands, truth or dare, thaumilogical waves, Eldritch Abominations, and the lack of Folgers coffee, with the current plot (if it can be considered one) not resembling the original premise in any way.Well, what are you waiting for?
