A Game Of Gods

• Arc Fatigue: The Halo Reach challenge, big time.
  • In-Universe, Sub-Zero comes down with a case of this near the end of the game.
• Big Lipped Alligator Moment: The impromptu Futurama Christmas challenge, which suddenly occured during the The Way The World Ends challenge.
• Crowning Music of Awesome: "This is Halloween", with Eddie Riggs playing backup guitar.
  • Much of the songs associated in Endless Blue set the tone for the situations the group find themselves in.
  • Mostly anything put up on the thread. Seeing as this is mostly written by people with good taste in music. Including "Always".
• Drinking Game: Take a shot every time a link to Hand Wave appears.
• Ensemble Darkhorse: The Nomads are this, with their creation being easy, to being Original Characters and thus be characterized anyway the player wants without fear of derailment.
  • Their Darkhorsiness is recognized by a lot of people, as a good chunk of the Nomads made a Heel Face Turn, and that there's plans that AGOG:I is going to be about the origins of the Nomads.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: During the Christmas challenge, a letter to Santa was found that accused him of illiteracy and demanded to know why he never brought the sender the vehicles and ordnance he asked for, replacing them with socks and other Boring, but Practical items. Fast forward a few months, where a boy and a tiger enter the Common Room.
  • Also, the Magical Girl challenge. Darker and Edgier, a graphic death on the heroes' side, the heroes facing an Eldritch Abomination, and it started out on a light mood, then suddenly whiplashes into a dark one. A few months later...
    • Even more funnier is that one of the Nomads sent them to that Magical Girl challenge to break a loop in which the magical girls they possessed kept dying for exactly five loops, the same amount of loops Homura had to go through to bring an end to the cycle of death.
    • Even more funnier when you consider that Puella Magi Madoka Magica was going to be made into a challenge for Season 2.
• Nightmare Fuel: See here.
• Scrappy Level: Most people seem to agree that the HaloReach challenge was the least liked.
• Tastes Like Diabetes: The Magical Girl challenge qualifies.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Several times this happens when people playing decide to drop out, be kicked, or in one case, getting banned on the forums for something unrelated to the RPG.
• Unfortunate Implications/Values Dissonance: Tsuharu (A Genderbent Narumi) marrying her father has set off tons of these. So much so that even the person playing Tsuharu decided to play it for laughs.
• What Could Have Been: In Spades, granted. At some point, someone posts a character or challenge that will mostly be rejected (mostly due to how powerful or how evil said character is) or switched out in favor of an alternative. This results in missing out on having characters like Envy and Homura in the cast, as well as a challenge where the Champions are in The Room. (though given the rules of that challenge, everyone, including the creator of the challenge, thought it would fail and rejected it for the better)
  • There was going to be a Madoka Magica challenge, but the person G Ming it was kicked out, and his friend (Or some assume himself) took it off the Challenge list despite a Co-GM willing to GM it.
