So should I start a new thread or just edit the OP and have everybody start posting actions here?

I think that if it is a new completely concept, then you should start a new thread. If it's the same character or universe, then you could have the last few updates be part of a dream sequence, make a time skip, or scene change.

(Dream it is then)

You look around the house, everything begins to fade, the edges of objects blacken, the wind outside the windows picks up as leaves and dust get blown into the air, a dizziness takes over your body, you hang onto he darkening counter too to keep yourself from falling over, outside is dark now, the trees and horizon lit in a dim red hue, the inside of the house is almost completely black now, you can just barely see the contours of the objects in the house jutting through the blackness. As your legs begin to wobble, the dizziness takes over, you hear a strange evil cackle in the distance just as your legs give out. Your head slams into the floor just as everything becomes pitch black and the world fades away.

Almost jumping out of your seat you awaken pulling your head off the table you fell asleep at. There's a pool of drool on the table, you feel cold, the faint sounds of a tv play as you stare at the table.

The best way to demonstrate it to him is take a save of 40 year old fortress with 150 dwarves in it on a good sized embark with a volcano that just breached the circus and install it on his gaming rig and watch it bring his rig to its knees.

Shaking your head you look around. The smell of cheap coffee seems to be the only smell in the room. You look forward and see that you are at an office meeting table of some sort, on the tv that would normally be used for presentations (you assume) your game console is hooked up and looks like the game you were updating is ready. The console sits ontop of a small cabinet, next to that is a refrigerator. To the left of the cabinet is a large strange metal device.

To your right you see a few more chairs and the other end of the table. A wall with the light switches and a door. There is also a small window on the wall that gives view to the inside of a large garage or storage area of some sort.

To your left you see the other end of the table with more chairs, a small counter at the other end of the room with a large coffee maker, a container of sugar, powdered creamer, and several small bags of coffee. Next to this counter is a 10 gallon water cooler about 3/4 full.

Behind you is a few foldable tables with chairs behind them and another wall with a closed white door at the left end of it.

You seem to be at your father's office, more specifically the not so often used meeting room

▲Think about this.
Other things to do:
-Check self.
-Check inventory.
-Drink some water from the water cooler.
-Peer out the window.

You remember you came here with your dad. Yeah it's your dad's work place. He brought you here to do some updates on your console using his work's wifi. You're not entirely sure how long ago you fell asleep though.

You check yourself (before you wreck yourself)* and everything seems fine. No cuts or bruises, not in pain, dry mouth and cracked lips but that's not weird for you, you're in black cargo pants [pockets: Cellphone, MP3 player, ear buds, half pack of gum], sneakers, (your underwear of course) your favorite band t-shirt, and you have a couple of your favorite band braclets.

You get up and grab a drink from the water cooler, the freezing water soothes your dry throat. You crumple up the paper water cone and toss it in a trash can.

You peer out the window but it's too dark inside the garage or storage area to make out anything more than a work truck and misc. Pieces of metal strewn about.

Try opening the east door, the door near the fridge.
