When they are crossing a desert, they will be ambushed by Tusken Raiders.

The reason why I thought of such things is Lemurian once telling me what I would have done with my characters—giving them an open-ended conclusion so that way, people can draw their own conclusions from it. Needless to say, to me, I think it also applies to this situation at hand as well.

On another topic, what of the characters who don't want to race? Is everyone going to America now as the next location or would they come back to Tokyo after? I say that because I'm not all that into the race thing, so I'd like to know whether I should have my characters stay in Tokyo or find another non-race way to get to America.

I think I'm planning on Talking Guy/The Announcer being arrested after this race.

And sure, Gunthir.

Should have asked for participants.

Depends, Ozzy, I plan on teleporting them back to Composite Tokyo after the race is over, unless people want to go to Composite New York.

Have the characters that travel to Composite America take a complimentary plane ride back to Composite Tokyo.

By the way, Etheru, sorry for my positivity being so jarring...

Ah, ok. So I'll just have my characters hang out in Tokyo then. Works for me.

Don't. Apologize. For being. Positive.

Alright.

Will there be a prize? Or is it just a race for fun?

Depends, I guess, I'm making it up as I go along, racers are advised to do the same.

If there's a prize, there's a prize, but what shall it be? Something likely pointless.

The prize is a years worth of tofu?

The death of Midna's characters was poorly handled and only served to make things worse. What Lemmy doesn't get is that this stunt was completely in character for the witches to pull.

At least it's not as bad as my idiotic weaving together of why the WAOA universe is being so heavily subjected to Deus Angst Machina lately. That was probably the dumbest shit I've ever written.

Oh well, now to literally butcher the concept of Obviously Evil For the Evulz people in game for my personal amusement...you may all proceed to beat me with sticks now.

Then it seems I have succeeded, as I knew full well trying to explain anything about it instead of leaving well enough alone would have done nothing but made the situation that much stupider. But stupid is as stupid does, and it's preferable to characters feeling down 24/7. That, and I wanted to bring laughter to the thread again.

I guess it was also because...I really have noticed that characters have been getting really screwed over in the story...and it's almost unnatural how often they're being fucked with by fate.

That, and I didn't fully make up everything about Herr D. D. Drosselmeyer. He really is a shitty writer that likes screwing with his creations.

-Has all manner of shit thrown at him and is tossed into a pile of sticks a broken man-

...Maybe...a hay-penny..as a prize?

Not having anything to do with drama or the race or anything, but...

I had fun with the Vrischole thing. And to think I only chose Vriska for Nichole to look like as a troll because people thought her avatar looked like a human Vriska. But it worked because of the difference in personality, I think. I'd had her gradually becoming more and more Vriska-ish, or at least that was my intention. Like how initially she was saying "Oh no, I'm really a human named Nichole who got turned into a troll," then it eventually got to where she was trying to trick the other trolls into thinking she was Vriska, and picked up on her way of speaking and everything.

Frankly I don't think it would have been as interesting if I'd gone more personality based and done something like "Oh, she likes cats, and acting fits with casual roleplaying, so she looks like Nepeta".

Anyway it was one of my favourite things I've done in a while, and I'm rather pleased with how it went.
