I'm in the 3 boat as well.

My preference is option #3. 9k1 Zanreo has a very good point in that we can pause event suggestions for a bit to focus on cleanup of existing ones, but we don't know how long this glitch is going to take to fix. As such, it'd be a good idea to look for events that can be merged, removed from certain phases, or replaced. It'll give us a bit more to do in the meantime and give us room in case we have to split ambiguous events.

EDIT: Thanks for the clarification.

Edited by NineTailedCat on Sep 26th 2023 at 1:42:53 AM

I think option 3 would be best. I also think we should keep the current buggy regular safe, in case the bug has nothing to do with the number of events.

Actually, that was Zan's reasoning, I was speaking on behalf of all the mods who initially discussed it in the server.

Edited by TroperNo9001 on Sep 26th 2023 at 4:37:42 PM

Changed my mind. 3 seems better.

3.

The discussion is still ongoing, but the save is more or less ready for Kaf and/or Faith. We have 81 tributes this season.

EDIT: And Kaf has sent the save to Letooce!

Edited by TroperNo9001 on Sep 27th 2023 at 6:35:05 PM

Sorry for the double post, but after the discussion regarding the resim glitch, event suggestions will be suspended until it is fixed, starting next season (S297). We shall also be discussing on which events will be cut in the server (temporarily or permanently) to hopefully alleviate the glitch in the meantime.

Reboot Season 296: Update 1

A light blue fox and a white and pink sheep in wolf's clothing are talking to each other in the hosting booth.

This is so exciting! I've always wanted to host a Hunger Games!

Same. Thanks for inviting me.

Of course! You're perfect for- Oh, it's starting?! Sorry about that everyone, hehe. I'm Slushi!

I'm Cofi.

And welcome to Season 296 of the Hunger Games! You might remember us from Season 277... when we died in the Bloodbath.

...

That's not important though! What is important is that me and Cofi are back, commentating on this season's events! Who's competing this season? Let's see!

The Reaping

Many tributes from many different franchises have gathered here today to bring you entertainment, but only one will make it out! To do so, they'll need survival skills, courage, and most importantly, luck!

Here comes the Bloodbath.

May the odds ever be in your favor, and may the best tribute win! Are you ready, Cofi?

Mmm hmm. It begins, in three, two, one.

The Bloodbath

• Oh... That's... a bad way to start for Quinby. Yeah... note to all the other tributes: you should probably watch your step.
• "Kill every last one of them" includes you, you know. Hey, don't get mad at Keith for following orders.
• Awkward situation for Pixy and Saheeli... yikes.
• Oh, Gamemakers! 6k1 isn't supposed to be here, Derrick is! Phew! Glad I caught that early!
• I don't see how Poison Ivy would cause problems. I think the RNG just doesn't like it.
• Hey! Almost all the tributes just ganged up on Lae'zel there, that isn't fair! Well... I guess anything is fair here. Mount Kisokoma would rather not remember that.
• Aww, Feature Presentation is so tiny! I don't think the name "Flashbang of Doom" exactly fits it in this state.
• Bio-Con's ultimate grill? That sounds so cool! Wait, we can't be listening to ads, the Bloodbath is still going!
• Uh oh. Psycho dies and we don't even know how?!
• Ooo, Clinkeroth and Topper got tickets to MasterChef! You'll only be able to use it if you survive the Hunger Games though! And Metermann had to see it twice too. AND Damian is breathing hopium about it!
• RNG takes the life of another one. Omega didn't even get a chance.
• Oh, I recognize that flag! That's from Bikini Bottom!
• And so Digger kills all the remaining tributes and wins this season of the Hunger Games! Wait, that's not right! Nebula Gray killed Digger! What happened to the script? 6k1's the culprit. 6k1! Look, I know you're already upset because you've accidentally been sent to the arena, but you messing with the script ruins the fun for everyone else!
• Anyway, where did all this money come from? President Snow is wondering the same thing.
• Here comes Fulgore taking down Exigent!
• Oh, that's... a scary laugh you have there, Hibiki. Luchika understandably tells Swordfighter Peach about it.
• Oh no, Espurr! Not even being cute will prevent your face from being bashed in.
• Death Battle invitations too?! Wow, you tributes are really lucky! Take it as motivation to keep going!
• Seems Ralf is a huge threat. Yeah... good luck, Neuvillete.
• I wouldn't tempt fate there, Xavier. You saw what RNG did to those other tributes.
• Another tip for you, tributes: You probably shouldn't brag a lot. It'll put a huge target on your back, as seen with King Roland II!
• Ooo, that could have been a fatal interaction if ExileLord was angrier at Tsukumo.
• Woah! A President Snow death! He'll be back though. Yeah, he's the Kenny of these games, after all!
• I didn't know Anya wrote Dead By Daylight stuff! Sick. And now she finally gets to meet her.
• That's a good promise to make, Joe. Getting 4th place cursed would suck. Doesn't guarantee you'll be 100% safe from it.
• Aah! Spanish Inquisitor! I didn't expect them! Good job getting out of there, Grape.
• Usopp... dang, I feel bad now. I understand how nerve-racking these games can be.
• OMG, Robbie Rotten! You're iconic as heck, dude!
• Oh- uh- okay then! You didn't have to blow yourself up there, Bols, but- alright!
• That's smart, Sturm! Great on thinking ahead!
• Shovel Knight getting robbed by an interstate is something I didn't expect to see today. I mean, anything can happen here.
• Ninja Warrior too?! So many invites!
• Hey Elle from Elle May Cry!
• Di Lung is... threatening. I know, right?! He even took down Void without a sweat!
• Daniel has a minigun! Bang bang bang!
• Felidar Guardian, didn't you hear what I said at the beginning? That could have been Quinby all over again!
• That's... not that good of a goal to be honest, Tatsumaki.
• He really is an angel! He's the newest sexyman for a reason, you know? He's what? Well... he isn't on the wiki yet, but I'm sure he'll be soon! Huh?
• Moving over to someone who is on that wiki though- Uh... What's Trickster doing?! He's just sitting down! That's not what a killer is supposed to do! Now he's dead to Katze because of it!
• I can't believe you've gotten away with that, Golduck. Those peacekeepers are sure to be mad at you now.
• I get that it's Toad Circuit, but isn't that name a bit much?
• Fancy, Mob!
• Don't underestimate Pichu, ESPECIALLY not the Super Smash Bros one!
• Gasp! Poor Zelda! That ladder just turned on her!

Day One

• That's a horrible birthday present! I'm so sorry, ExileLord.
• Yep, just a dream! Nothing at all to be suspicious about, Neuvillete!
• Hahaha! I don't get it. Me neither.
• Oh, President Snow is back already! Not sure if kicking the Toad balloon in the groin is gonna do anything though.
• Too... much... Smash Bros fanfiction...
• Aww, tiny Joes!
• More Death Battle tickets! These people must really want the tributes anywhere but here.
• Well... that's nice, Feature Presentation.
• An art collab with the Interstates, a once in a lifetime moment! How do you feel, Sturm? Probably confused.
• Good, we don't want this to turn into Miitopia!
• I mean... SpongeBob is square, so it would make sense that the pizza would be square too. Would it also make sense for the pizza to have pineapple on it? Hmm, it would!
• I don't like the sound of a Krampus event! It isn't even Christmas!
• Does the technique even matter? I don't know, I'm not much of a cook.
• Ouch.
• Hey, stop that! Alex can't carry two people at once!
• Congrats on the sponsorship, Peach
• Gross! I can smell Elle's bad breath from here!
• To be fair, that isn't the worst thing Gigyas can do.
• Why would you lick a doornob in the first place, Luchika? Why would Topper put poison on that doornob?
• You can't trust beer in this game either! You can't trust anything!
• Come on Yun-Jin, don't take your anger out on an innocent cat! Heh, I kind of sounded like Bezel there.
• Can you rephrase that?
• Ooo, are we shipping now?! I love shipping! I think Kaya would be the best with- Slushi. Right, the game.
• Good thing Amelia stopped that possible disaster!
• Pixy's phone could be very useful.
• I don't blame Wriothesley for attempting that, considering how Hibiki acted in the Bloodbath.
• Wait, so who's important and who's not?
• Sick! We can always use awesome music here!
• Damian is so smart he can bruise Derrick with it! Literally!
• Oh, I thought Astarion actually got cut there for a second! Phew!
• Cool! Your very own self-demonstration page!
• And here we have SomeLibre appreciation!
• Your sacrifice will not be in vain, Left Paddle. Rest in peace.

Fallen Tributes: Quinby, Lt. Drebin, Poison Ivy, Lae'zel, Psycho, Omega, Digger, Exigent, Espurr, Kung Roland II, Usopp, Bols, Void, The Trickster, Black Knight, A mouse-drawn Zelda, Pichu, Nebula Gray, Tatsumaki, Luchika, Clinkeroth, and Left Paddle. 59 tributes remaining.

That's a lot of tributes out already.

With more soon to come.

We'll see you all on Night 1!

Does this mean we'll finally get Waluigi vs Robbie Rotten in Death Battle?

So this means someone surgically opened the body of whatever female Pikachu or Raichu Pichu was in before she laid the egg? Hope she's okay now, cause the Pichu is not.

And Link shouldn't be drinking beer.

And eliminated in the first update? Damn! 😖

Edited by CosmosAndChaos on Sep 27th 2023 at 5:14:42 AM

In Pingu, the doctor used a spoon to crack Pinga's egg, so that's probably the oviparous equivalent of C-section.

Also, I bet Peach is sponsored by the theater she went to— I mean will go to.

And...

6k1: I'm sorry, but it's already bad enough that I'm supposed to be hospitalized while there's still a Multiversal crisis going on!^note In ASAS, she got badly injured before the Voidlands Metroid invaded Panem, which caused said crisis

Edited by TroperNo9001 on Sep 27th 2023 at 5:18:31 PM

Who knew Fulgore was such a good obbyist, doing a difficulty that's only a few other difficulties before Supreme (which is literally the last physically possible difficulty, mind you)?

Edited by jtard on Sep 27th 2023 at 3:43:38 AM

Reboot Season 296: Update 2

So, who are you rooting for, Cofi?

I'm not sure. There's a lot of tributes doing good right now.

Hehe, yeah, fair. Who I'm rooting for is- Oh! Sorry again, everyone! I really have to get used to these timings. Onto Night 1!

Night One

• I guess finding a whole interstate would be too easy for Yun-Jin, heh.
• Well, Joe and Vinny don't seem to have any special abilities, as far as I know.
• It's just Feature Presentation. I'm sure it doesn't mind, O-Ren.
• Uh oh! Run, Bio-Con and Felicia, run!!!
• Oof! That's gotta hurt. Careful, Pechi!
• You sure you know how to use it?
• Ooo! I know this one! It's Elle's question though. Not yours. Right.
• Task failed successfully? Actually, no, this looks really bad... Hey! What are you doing with Topper's body, Mob?! I have to agree with ExileLord, things did escalate there.
• Now THAT'S some bar brawl!

• I know "DO NOT PRESS" almost always means something bad, but it's just so tempting! Good on Xavier for resisting to press it, because I might have.
• I would be scared too if a whole circuit was after me. Now that you say that, you're right! That would be scary!
• Ah yes, the powerful Uno Reverse card! If only it worked that way outside of the Hunger Games.
• Woah, CometBob?!
• Hummus? But that's not a we- Remember the beer? Oh. Well, at least Asterion didn't die to it!
• It's okay, Holly. Diamonds are pretty hard to break.
• That's one evil mountain. Glad it was stopped.
• Huh?! Do you WANT death threats, Alex?!
• And that's a wipeout! Are you two okay though?
• Hey! That's not real money, Keith! There goes some of your savings.
• That's cruel, Blanc! Legos hurt! I agree.
• Look out, everyone! There's a monster! Wait, that's just Robbie Rotten. Robbie Rotten? Oh you!
• Ooo, knockout!

Day Two

• Heh heh, that's a lot of Vincent cosplayers!
• But Pamtri SpongeBob never competed... if you don't count EVERYTHING. There's no need to ruin a friendship over that!
• Oh no! Felicia is stuck!
• Wait, I think I know the reference! Mad Rat Dead! Sliver is just like Mad Rat!
• New tip to the tributes: Don't make your meeting at Interstate 90.
• Piano-powered sausage machine? I'm interested!
• If what Tsukumo's writing is true, gross.
• Amelia got fired from being a detective.
• You're an intersection participating in the Hunger Games. You should know these games are silly by now.
• On the bright side, Toad Circuit, you, you won't remember being hit in the crotch!
• Woah! You think all that meat is for the feast? Who knows?
• Now THAT could have been bad. You're lucky you removed the explosives on time, Life Virus.
• Uh... what is this event?! I don't understand... Whatever it is, Aspheera isn't liking it!
• Shovel Knight has a napalm bomb! Three tributes are out from that one.
• Getting stuck in a tube slide sounds awful! Thank goodness you were able to get out!
• That Golduck must have maximum levels and stats if it could easily beat Peach!
• Only here can you say a Discord loading screen killed somebody.
• Dang it! If Robbie Rotten was in this event, it would have been perfect!
• A- poop watcher?! Don't think about it too hard. Anyway, Katze is banned for being accused of it.
• Please don't feed them all dog.
• There's Robbie Rotten! I don't think he's spitting facts though, otherwise he wouldn't be the villain of Lazytown!
• Mob is pleased at Pechi's violence.
• Why revive only one when you can revive both? Derrick does just that!

Fallen Tributes: O'Neil, Wriothesley, Topper, Anya, O-ren, Okina, Yun-Jin, Metermann, Interstate 95, Right Paddle, Neuvillete, Hibiki, Vinny, and Katze. 45 tributes remaining.

We'll be back with Night 2 in a bit.

See you there!

Edited by Letooce on Sep 28th 2023 at 10:26:05 AM

Welp, RIP Katze

PamtriBob, probably: I THOUGHT WHAT WE HAD WAS SPECIAL!!!

I just known Elle's also a fan of Spy X Family, good luck for the attempt to name every characters in the show!

But RIP anya, no mind-reading or peanut events interaction, oof'ed.

Ame, plz.

vincent pls eat someone

A bit late to this, but I thought the joke with the Black Knight and Pichu was that Pokemon hatch from an egg, so they're technically not "of woman born".

It's funny how Robbie Rotten is being in-character by disguising himself (or turning himself into one) as a monster to scare the other tributes. But I don't understand how promoting laziness and only eating junk food is "straight facts".

Edited by Dghcrh on Sep 28th 2023 at 8:05:13 PM

Wow, how good is that Golduck if Peach couldn't beat it in the game she was playing?

Reboot Season 296: Update 3

Welcome back, everyone! Yes! I finally got the timing right! Onto Night 2!

Night Two

• Why, SpongeBob?! We don't need more Giygas!
• Aww, that's sweet... unless Vincent doesn't like Grape.
• I never knew Peach could shred someone like that. So gruesome that the Hunger Games doesn't even want to show it.
• Mount Kisokoma must have been really attached to that toy. Dang...
• Maybe it could be possible if you sharpen the baseball bat. Wouldn't that just make a stake? Oh yeah, it would.
• T-t-t-t-t-that's all folks!
• I don't blame Kaya, ew.
• Interstate 90 killed 5 tributes already, so I get it.
• Ooo, I wonder what sort of hidden powers the other tributes could have!
• OOC: I literally can't roll this event since it doesn't list numbers for Arena Events, so just use your imagination, okay? Hey, that event's not supposed to happen like that! Seems an arena event was localized, and Ralf's the victim to it.
• Come on, you should know by now that if you say, "At least it's not raining," it's going to rain!
• Convenient.
• Dang! Feature Presentation infiltrating was the least of Bio-Con's worries.
• Once again, very convenient. This is exactly what V.IV Rusty needs!
• Silver, you realize that you killed entire universes' worth of life, right? I think he knows...
• Really? You killed Mob for that?
• That's one way to celebrate...
• What book did you borrow, Fren? I hope it's one you'll like a lot!
• Laughter really is the best medicine! Nice.
• I think Sturm's about to get in either a villain arc or a revenge arc. Either way, Joe should watch out.
• A train line is good! It can be useful for traveling around, moving supplies- Sabotage. Sabo- HUH? I'm not wrong.
• Heh, Robbie x Derrick would be a funny ship.
• Aah! Change his head back! Change his head back!
• The Peacekeepers have chosen violence! Lucky for Blanc, they don't have the best aim.
• Bottling up your emotions isn't healthy, Astarion, not even in a literal sense. You should always show your true feelings! Even in the Hunger Games? Hmm, okay I see why you would do that now.
• Fulgore x Holly! Now THAT'S a crack ship if I've ever seen one!

Day Three

• An Elle potato chip, cool!
• Is that a- Yeah.
• I didn't think water would ever be hard to find.
• Sturm vs construction robot! Go!
• Aww! Does ExileLord see Pechi as family?
• That's why you have to be careful with time travel. You can die as easily as that.
• Hey, what's Saheeli's Tumblr? Asking for a friend. What about Giygas? I don't think I want that one. Wait, Giygas doesn't even have shoelaces.
• Felicia doesn't need a bow for this season.
• Is it possible for an entire Interstate to get arrested?
• Michiko, I think Keith means it.
• What?! No! Fulgore, Holly is supposed to be your special one! Not Fren!
• Same.
• That's for the best, Toad Circuit. You don't want to end up like Pixy!
• Amelia not only got fired from her detective job, but now fails at fighting too.
• This is why SpongeBob still doesn't have his driver's licence.
• That sounds like so much fun! I hope Robbie doesn't ruin it.
• Hey Cofi, have you seen Tsukumo? No, I haven't. What's he doing? I hope he isn't sneaking around or anything!
• V.IV isn't that good of a villain.
• Into the cone of shame Di Lung goes!
• AI is scary! It can replace other tributes just like that! By paying others to get rid of the original.
• That was close! A little bit off and Mai and Satono would have died in space!

Fallen Tributes: Shovel Knight, Mount Kisokoma, Daniel, Ralf, Bio-Con, Mob, Pixy, Pamtri SpongeBob, and Felidar Guardian. 36 tributes remaining.

More than half the tributes are already gone, with more soon to follow, up next!

Edited by Letooce on Sep 28th 2023 at 8:22:49 AM

Jake rolled for the random AE that Ralf died in, and it was one of the dark castle AEs! I also rolled for the fatal sub-event, and he was clubbed by a skeleton for laughing at it!^note it's a bit slower to get the random AE because there are no more AE numbers in the new sim, but we still did it

But anyway, Derrick only pretended to fall for Robbie because the latter scared him with his monster form in that horror game.

Well, I rolled for a past tribute who possessed Elle in night 2 and it's revealed to be Lord Dominator from OG season 113

Either Fulgore is a cheater, or it's into polyamory, assuming Holly is fine with it looking for more partners.
