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.]

If the VIPs do kill, we will have no choice but to retaliate. There is no need for any bloodshed so long as no one feels the need to kill at all.

As for your first question -- before coming here I was in the middle of another similar game. Different from time one in a number of ways, but similar too. I was worried when I awoke here that this may be yet another game of murder, but I did not want to believe it. Until now.

That's understandable.

[About the whole "do not kill and you will not be killed" thing, that is.]

The middle? So wait, someone...kidnapped you from your kidnapper?

[Kidnapper rivalry????]

Yes. Silly isn't it? I would have been more thankful for the rescue, had this sudden introduction of a killing game never come to be. Out of the pot, into the oven, I believe is the appropriate saying.

Isn't it "out of the frying pan, into the fire"...?

[Eh, whatever. Still, this is interesting, and yet also sort of...disturbing.]

Are you, um, in the same boat as that man? Sigma, I think his name was. He mentioned something about being kidnapped, as well...

[Oh, is that it? Hm.]

Yes. Sigma and I came from the same place before we arrived here. Although he cannot remember it.
