42 players remaining.


[You wake up in a temporary barracks set up behind an amusement park. The weather is chilly but pleasant, and there aren't any lines for the rides - in fact, it seems you have this place to yourself. The entire park appears to have been abandoned some years ago, and though everything is in working order, it is overgrown with plants and seems rusted and unsafe.

As for you, something has happened, though you aren't sure what. There's a throbbing pain in your head, and you can't focus, as though you're coming off heavy pain medications. However you think you should look, you look like a human now. Under the bandages wrapped around your temple, old and smelling like blood, you'll find a recently stitched up scar wound and the inability to focus on your memories. You have no knowledge of how you came to be here; you may even have forgotten certain aspects of your life, or feel confused about them. The fact of your missing memories is obvious, a dark blank spot. Under the bandages around your wrist, you'll find a brightly colored bracelet, decorated with the face of the smiling cartoon animal on your wall, embedded into your flesh. It beeps a merry tune and welcomes you to DreamLand Fun Park. Just then, a voice comes over the loudspeaker.]

"Good morning to all of our new guests! The park is now open! We'll get started later, but for now, have a magical day with your new friends! Oh, and there may be a few nasty side effects to your medical condition. If you meet someone having trouble adjusting to reality, please be polite!"

[In your room, you'll find a small box containing several personal items - no weapons, magical items, or technology advanced beyond the early 21st century, and nothing dangerous, but otherwise anything you would ordinarily find on your person is there. Of course, nothing with cell reception or internet connectivity can manage to pick up a signal.

If you swipe your bracelet against the steel door, it unlocks. You may now explore your accommodations, or venture out into the park.]

Oh, but of course. I wish to partake in every ride I possibly can and I would be happy to have a partner alongside me. I have fun enough on rides alone, but I imagine being with others would only make it even more fun.

[He makes a small gasp sound, realizing something.]

Maybe we can see if we can have our pictures taken on the rides! A snapshot to remember the experience.

Oh my gosh yes! [K, which one of you is the little girl here?]

We'll need a picture for every ride! We could start a scrapbook! Make a funny face in each picture too, like we have to be super serious going down the big roller coaster. Or we could look like we're having a tea party!

[Hey, she can just grab his hand and start dragging him (or trying to) towards the coaster, right? Is that something she can do?]
jingler: sprite (as i was split in half)

[Physically she can't, but he'll start to move along with her as she pulls on his hand. No time like the present after all.]

A scrapbook of pictures sounds lovely. Though I'm not certain if I can look 'super serious' as you say, due to the restrictions on my suit. I also don't think we could stage a tea party on a fast most roller coaster, due to the laws of physics making that task seemingly impossible, but if you can think of a way then I am all ears.

Suit? You mean you're not a robot?

[You look like a robot.]

We don't really have to have tea or anything though! We can just look like we're having a tea party! You know have our hands up, pinkies out, as if we are sipping some of the finest tea of the world!
jingler: sprite (human nature was what started me)

Correct. I am just a man trapped in a robot suit. Your idea sounds simple enough. Let us do it then.

[They arrived to the roller coaster entrance and he's already excited. Riiides.]

Should we sit in the very front, the middle, or back?
