ANNOUNCEMENT: Event cut


    Original OP 
Hi, and welcome to the official reboot of the Hunger Games Simulation! Yeah, funny that the guy whose tributes and suggestions created a bit of a stir in the original HGS is making the reboot post, I know. Before we begin, here are the rules. And a link to the HGS wiki as that's where we do the editing.

Old rules snipped; please read the updated rules post.


And that should be that. Here's a save of the simulation, just so you know what to expect. Now's start the nominations for the first season of the reboot!

Karsh should watch out for Asmodeus(And DC). Funny that a snake wants to eat him, though, given Riddel, the woman he has a(non-mutual) crush on, has a snake motif.

RMS Mauritania is so damn insistent with Noelle. It's a ship, so it doesn't any life force for her to absorb. Although the nominator called "her" Mauri. Hmmm.... On the other hand, I'll thank Yian-Kut-Ku for giving special training lessons to Riel.

Doodle Devil, could you give me some of that hopium? I think I'll need it for these updates.

"It's a ship, so it doesn't have any life force for her to absorb." - well technically she IS sentient, as can be seen on my signup post here.

"Although the nominated called "her" Mauri." - ships are female by language tradition and mauri is just one of *few affectionate nicknames ocean liner fans give her.

Sorry y'all, but I'm gonna skip posting an update today for the sake of my sanity. No need to fear; about 45% of the next update is finished.

Good morning, and good night, I hardly ever sleep. With what I have, what else do you think I'd ever need?

Thanks for postponing the next update for me, I only got caught up with the previous ones just now because I was busy traveling home from the States...


WEEEEEEEEELP, RNG, are you sure you didn't make Toriel the first (goat) sacrifice just because I didn't nominate her this season?! Guess I'll have to settle with only her head being restored as my Consolation Prize...

But poor Tasque Manager, she wouldn't approve of that printer error!

[1] ~Ichigo Montoya , the first event is a sub-variant of the "tribute is inflicted with a random status effect due to a bloodbath glitch" event, while the second one is based on what happened to Wanda Banks in S265, where she, while stuck in Kenny's body after he died, beheaded herself in self-defense and somehow survived. And to put things in perspective for that cellphone event, we have one where the tribute causes the plane they're in to crash because they forgot to turn on Airplane Mode (when that is a myth, go look that up too). Don't question it.


Isn't Mary already kinda rabbitlike, though? And didn't SS Norway already wipe Coolio's memories? Unless... those were residual memories she missed!


Shipping a ship, eh? (Rimshot) Also... did Jumba secretly program Mary to be as Nigh-Invulnerable as Stitch?! Meanwhile, my Carnivine keeps on picking fights!

Mox said this morning in my timezone that the next update is still being written, she just overslept. However, she has been going through some personal issues IRL, which was why she postponed it. As a reminder, NTC is standing by as backup host.

OOC note and trigger warning: The "Prologue" and "Epilogue" of this post contain mentions of self-harm. Reader discretion is advised.

Unimportant sidenote: Accidentally forgot about that part, but Fras did remember to turn off his microphone last update.

Reboot S366 (part 4)

    Prologue (of this post) 
Frasier and Roz are still catatonic from last update. Both of them try to say something but are too scared to do so. Finally, Frasier breaks the silence after 5 minutes.

S-So, w-we're trapped here by four hooligans for God knows how long until this torture ends. I really need this to be a nightmare. Maybe we can try to optimistic? You know what they say, fake it 'til you make it! Y-Yeah, maybe all we need is put on a smile and hope for mercy.

Ah yes, hiding your mental instability under a happy faΓ§ade. What a healthy coping mechanism.

AH! Don't you dare use my words on me! Does this mean you could've just talked at any time instead of using the laptop?!

Well, yeah, but that was to give the illusion of normalcy.

Eh– ugh. By the way, just what do you mean that the people of the Arena are going through time dilation?

Notice that you interpret 24 hours worth of events in roughly 30 minutes every time? That's the Gamemakers tricking the tributes for the sake of the audience! ...Apparently. We've read up on the papers.

N-No! This has to be a nightmare! And when I'm in a nightmare, I shall find a way to exit it! [grabs pen and aims it at right hand] So what is stopping me from, I don't know, SIMPLY STABBING MY HAN–

A psychiatrist should know better than to be a hazard to oneself.

The pen is taken out from Frasier's left hand by a blue aura and is promptly launched into the ceiling.

Guess it's just... faking it 'til you make it and... hoping for mercy.

[turns on microphone] Welcome back, my dear listeners. This is Dr. Frasier Crane, hosting another update on the Hunger Games Simulator... I wanna go home already. We both do. Another correction: Rice Shower's name only has one "s".

Night 3

[center and right screens turn on]

Insert something witty about nighttime here. Why bother at this point?

  • Monica does the feat of saving a beached whale. Wouldn't it be too late to save a whale at that point? It's magic. She just used magic.
  • Yian Kut-Ku is the tribute sent to kill the boogeyman? You're acting like it still exists! You already saw many fantastical things this season. Stop trying to deny it.
  • Gema get a Stand after being stabbed by a Stand arrow and stabbing it again... This is making no sense.
  • Nanna gives the breaking news: Mr. Deeds is still dead!
  • "Choose wisely between Daniel, Carnivine, The Joker, and Noelle. One will protect you; the rest will kill you." I guess I'll pick Noelle. She hasn't really done anything bad.
  • DC offs itself by falling off its fighter plane and getting hit by it. That's it, folks. No more Batman or Superman or whatever characters are in the comics.
  • Barve Boy (who's no longer in a cage) and Marina (who has now re-fused) wear badges that say "Support Shoshenq I". What is there, an election going on?
  • Marvel would've certainly got along with its alternate counterpart... if it weren't for the fact that it's already dead!
  • Given that Sans!Ena seems to be part-skeleton, I wouldn't be surprised when she's technically undead.
  • You know what they say: "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me."
  • Solcito is smart enough to kill multiple people but not to pass a spelling test?
  • Vallis-Neria gives up and pees in a bush after waiting for too long in a line with Witch and Tasque Manager when Sheldon's taking his sweet, sweet time. Doing this in real life would probably get you arrested for public indecency, I warn you.
  • O'Neill remixes a song from The Amazing Digital Circus in the style of Stargate SG-1. What would that sound like?
  • A literal devil manages to pass a "vibe check". How do you define "vibe" in this case?
  • Pumpkin is anguished over a lost torta. Rice Shower finds out about this and tries to make a "correction", only for Grizzy to kill her for being annoying.
  • Static Miku creates a wooden sculpture of her original self, despite, y'know...
  • Werner gets scammed by Mepps by donating to his "GoFundMe". (A new charity site?)
  • When SS Norway says she doesn't understand Coiny, he proceeds to say hello in Japanese,note  Chinese,note  French,note  Spanish,note  and Korean.note  Wow, the last one was such a mouthful!
  • Jackenstein does something that should've killed him, but is simply knocked out instead.
  • Fukukitaru traps Karsh in a giant cardboard box by luring him in with a messy bookshelf! I don't remember him being a bookworm...
  • Do all Doctors have that every time they see a goblin?
  • RMS Mauretania somehow has a hat that fits her and pulls Mary out of it.
  • Auntie Ethel (the disembodied head) and Mount Doom get to pilot a submarine that fits both of them to remove a clarinet reed stuck inside Riel's esophagus. Have we heard of this before?
  • Three Dog buys a weapon from the ever loud Billy Mays! 1, he's dead by time of recording and 2, didn't he just start his career by your time?

Day 4

  • First, Nanna gets into a relationship with her fridge and then her pinky? What is with her and having relationships with inanimate objects?!
  • Sans!Ena uses her powers to see what happens in the short-term future... and dies from a stroke. What a shame, she was lovely.
  • The next event being... Solcito beating BombonBombin to a pulp for bringing her to this game in the first place. I would do the same if it weren't for the fact that I'M NOT EVEN A PHYSICAL BEING ANYMORE! (You really don't know what we planned for you after this...)
  • Karsh hires Shoshenq I to redesign his closet. However, Karsh hates the design and throws Shoshenq I off the boat they were on.
  • Static Miku, still... that, (She just gets creepier every time I look at her.) commits psychological torture by grabing Daniel's hand and hit his face with it, saying "Stop hitting yourself!" incessantly. And you know who's also commiting psychological torture? THESE FREA– [intense tightness goes 'round his neck] Want mercy? Then stop it. [stops choking him] Ow! T-There's no defying you, huh?
  • An 8-meter arrow of "Ultimate Obliteration" strikes O'Neill. Pretty uncreative name, huh?
  • Oh yeah, another fetch quest, this time with Kinich on a skateboard and a hidden tape. Unfortunately, he fails... nothing bad happens.
  • Isn't one of the "Magical Girls" here already a military weapon, Jax?
  • Riel gets a kill by tying up Monica and hanging her by the neck! She then slits Asmodeus's throat when he walks on her doing the act! This is getting way too gruesome for me...
  • So Mepps has his soul literally in a jar, and Doodle God tries to destroy that to kill him. But it decides to torture Doodle God by pairing up Marina and Coiny. What.
  • Vallis-Neria drinks too much coffee and sees multiple dimensions. Despite that, he does not die of heart attack or caffeine poisoning and passes out instead. It's pretty hard to die of caffeine poisoning just by consuming cups of coffee, after all.
  • SS Norway uses a bomb to turn Gema, Barve Boy, Ly'lac, Hibiki, and Sheldon into inanimate skeletons! IT KEEPS GETTING MORE FRIGHTENING EVERY TIME!
  • Yian Kut-Ku is forced to listen to Jomanda's mixtape while in the latter's car.
  • Mary tells a rude joke to Werner about Tasque Manager. He responds by calling her a pig. Not to be offensive, but that feels pretty apt. If I say the same to you, would it still count? Hey! There will be no fatshaming this season!
  • Jackenstein, 7th Doctor, and Marvel become ultra-realistic after entering a strange factory. How do you turn an already human-looking person into something from uncanny valley?!
  • Mount Doom is just about to kill RMS Mauretania, Grizzy, Pumpkin with an eruption, but Doodle Devil goes ahead and slices it in half!
  • Raphael accidently uses his demonic voice to kill the Joker... in an attempt to apologize. At least I don't have to deal with the Joker's obnoxious jokes anymore!
  • Three deaths in a row! After Carnivine frames Noelle for stealing a cookie jar, Auntie Ethel sews Noelle's mouth shut and mummifies her.
  • Maybe the pocket universe inside of Spoken For Teto is why she looks a bit underweight.
  • "Meme stealing license card"?! This game's making up more and more outrageous things!

Fallen Tributes Ugh, finally. Rest in peace for DC, Rice Shower, Sans!Ena, Shoshenq I, O'Neill, Monica, Asmodeus, Gema, Barve Boy, Ly'lac, Hibiki, Sheldon, Mount Doom, The Joker, and Noelle. Nominators Memer999, TheMemeMan, Justkong033, SomeLibre, JankyKong, NineTailedCat, and IchigoMontoya have been eliminated. This is Dr. Frasier Crane... dear listeners, I really hope you have better mental health than me at this point. [turns off microphone]
    Epilogue (of this post) 
Y'know, I just had a crazy idea. Oh no. Maybe this is a shared dream, and all we have to do to get out is hurt ourselvesβ€” ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING?! YOU WOULD KNOW FOR A FACT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "SHARED DREAMS"! ...Please, whatever you're about to say, don't do it. Have you gone insane? Yes, but it's our only choice! Quick, smash your desk in 3, 2, 1! [CRASH]

Frasier jumps and uses all his body weight to smash his desk into smithereens. It hurts. A lot. The moment he crawls out of the way, the desk immediately reverses itself back to its original state.

Alas, such action won't do anything. Even if you try to punch a wall, dehydrate yourself, or make your teeth rot by only eating candy, I will make sure everything returns to normal. So don't.

[raises a finger] A– [sigh] Or we just give up. Simple as that. Let's just lay down on the floor.

Frasier and Roz lay down on the floor in fetal position, the former of which starts to sob, even if he tries to keep it quiet.

Not exactly proud of myself for this, but it works. For now, I'm just gonna take a break and sleep. See you guys later. ...What exactly have we done?

Riel had a minor setback with the clarinet incident, but this isn't the first time she got something stuck down her throat. I guess her having a stronger mouth than Noelle made the difference. I wonder if witches and succubi really are that antagonistic towards each other.

Anyhow, I rolled for the random event that KO'd Jackenstein instead of killing him, and he luckily survived being attacked for being "ANNOAIYING"!note 

Also, how fitting for Mary to be pulled out of a hat since she's still in her redundant rabbit form, but welp, makes sense for Werner to defend Tasque Manager because they teamed up for that Dorito raid two days ago.
