This game of Multiworld Madness has grown too large for me to handle. What would you have me do?

Muster up remaining strength and complete the current chapter. Bring the game to a logical close, then reboot it.

Same as 1, but a whole new game will be started instead, still Multiworld, but no longer Madness.
- 9 (10.5%)
Get just this last turn done and reboot the game. No point wasting energy if updating takes so long.
- 31 (36%)
Get the last turn done and start a new game project.

I experiment with my headband to enable a feature that shows the status of my allies with the aid of the experiences of my comrades.

I'll get on the truck and exhort my cohort to do the same.

So, if everyone can get on the truck, and it starts working again, can we switch to much longer turns? If Korora's stint traveling is any indication, there's much less opportunity for minor problems.

Also: is Gantolandon completely out, and if so, can we find out what happened to him?

Gantolandon is PM-playing, or at least is supposed to be. I'm going to do a big change and drop the player limit all the way to 9, so all the four currently AI-ed players will have to die off before a new one can join. Gantolandon is in a somewhat dangerous position, but it will mostly be Chaoticag and Rooster who will actively seek death. I still have that 'death by exposition' to carry out. It'll be easier once you're actually fighting something

And yeah, once you're on the move the turns will span many hours at once - 12 or 24, depending on rolls. You can't do much while travelling, mostly you'll just rest.

I'm not sure if I should fix the truck, noting my previous record with the business, but that'll still be my action.

Help is appreciated.

Unless Boksi manages to slip his action in, I'm starting the turn without him. Or rather, with him - on AI.

Uh, how about I try not to get in anybody's way or break anything? I'm feeling kind of pessimistic and can't think of anything useful.

You can help LASD. It's not like you can worsen their efforts, you can only injure yourself.

Yeah, OK, that then.

What's the worst that could happen? That's not a rhetorical question, by the way.

The absolutely worst? You get accidentally get sucked into the intake, cause the engine to overheat and explode, killing you and half the playing cast.

...Yeah, stuff like that is on of the reasons RTDs are so popular.

The other is the utter simplicity of the system.

What's the SECOND worst that could happen? And the third?

It's interesting seeing the potential destruction :)

Second worst? Well, he might accidentally stick his fire-halberd into the fuel tank, with considerable consequences. Note that if the other repair actions succeed, it won't have that big of an effect on the truck itself.

Third worst? I don't know, really. Too many possibilities here. It might involve the aforementioned "being sucked into the intake", except if the engine doesn't overheat and explode, you'll get some finely ground invisible meat pâté. Rich with carbon fibers.

In the future, it may not be best to ask about the worst things that could happen.
