Fooruman: Megawarp to 1320,23 in Sector X.

[Lem_Gambino]

Uh, no. I'd rather not have our party die again. Unless you know where those coordinates take us.

[Violet CLM]

That's either Fanolint or Megairbase. JJ1 doesn't make it very clear which.

[Lem_Gambino]

From the JJ1 manual:
Episode 3: RABBIT'S REVENGE

Jazz receives a fax from Princess Eva in her cell: "JAZZ: LUCKY I BROUGHT
MY PORTA-FAX WITH ME, HUH? DEVAN IS REGROUPING TO 1320,23 IN SECTOR X!
YOU'D BETTER GET HERE RIGHT AWAY!"

Jazz discovers the location of Devan's destroyers! Hurry, before Carrotus
becomes space dust!

FANOLINT -- Beneath the harsh surface of this wasteland is a thriving
arbitorium in which the turtles are breeding Flowers of Death to feed their
soldiers! Destroy them all, but watch out for Super-Tanks and plant life.

SCRAPARAP -- This is the junkyard of the universe. Here, the turtles are
stealing metal and parts for their battleships with robotic droids. Destroy
everything that moves, beware of the electro-magnets, and you might survive
to find...

DEVAN'S MEGAIRBASE -- Oh no! Devan has built an airbase! Jazz *might* have
a chance at destroying the two areas if he avoids the tanks, missiles, and
super sparks!

Since he's building destroyers, I think it's safe to say that we'll wind up at the Megairbase. Of course, that's up to Radium, since he's in control of this game.

EDIT: I just realized something...Star Fox and Star Fox 64 have a Sector X level...
O_o
...I'm just lost. Come on, Rad! Wake up so we can play is game plzkthnx! XD

[Radium]

<b>Sorry, I forgot </s>you guys existed.</s> And the gate is immortal, Xi.

Megawarp needs an X, Y, and Z (all as numbers). Anything less and it'd be a unseful enchatment or something.

[Radium]

<b>After you get into Unfooruman's fortress, I'm thinking about continuing it in a new thread with a really big recap, some new systems, and some better DM'ing. It'll help Win3.1 get back some of its players who got lost earlier.

[Lem_Gambino]

Ah. Didn't see that. *pokes Rad, because he's probably asleep*

[Radium]

<b>No, just busy.

It seems as though someone has already sewed up the hole in the ceiling.

[Lem_Gambino]

Stack all party members minus Fooruman, with Faw on top. Give him the knife and use it to try and cut the stuff (fabric?) that's keeping the hole shut.

If that doesn't work, then:
Go: South
Pull lever
Go: Down hallway that is lit up

That'll be East there, I believe.

[Radium]

<b>Unfortunately, the roof is not made of fabric. It's just more earth and metal, sewed shut with six inch thick steel cable.

You go back to the lever and go east. There is another lever in this room, and exits are north (to the monolith), south (to the dial), and west (back to the lever).

[Lem_Gambino]

I assume someone is trying to trap us with this puzzle-lair thing. I don't think there's anything else to do at the monolith now (unless we missed something), so:

Go: South.
Examine Room and dial.
List exits.

[Radium]

I assume someone is trying to trap us with this puzzle-lair thing.
<b>Or at least slow you down... *still has to draw sprites*

You go south. This room has four exits: back north, east (to Fox and the cold-feeling machine with the air vent), west (to the warm-feeling machine and bars), and south (to the burning hot furnace room). The dial in the middle of this room can be turned in any of the four directions.

[Lem_Gambino]

I sense a battle ahead...but maybe it's just me.

Shuri says, "Everybody, hold someone else's hand, so we won't get lost." You all hold hands, but Araches holds your hand rather tightly. You fumble along until you reach Fox's room, but the loud snoring tells you that he's still asleep. What other crazay thang do you want to do now?

[Xion]

...North always has been lit.

North is where we came from.


Anyways, since we're in Fox's room...Lets' drag him back to the Dial Room. For fun.

[Ekardnamal]

Grope North Wall

[Lem_Gambino]

You drag Fox back, but since it's so dark you can't set up the Ballista properly. You lead the party north and grope at the wall. The icky rust that has been accumulating on the wall for a very long time is rubbed off into your hand.
Leetzan says, "I don't think we should waste our time with this wall."

"I don't have a fortress; I was stuck in a trench for four years!" grumbles Fooruman. Leetzan still thinks attacking the wall is pointless.

Exits are south. It is pitch black.

Apologize to Fooruman
Say: "I meant Unfooruman."

Go: South, West.

"Sorry, I meant Unfooruman," says Shuri. "Of course," Replies Fooruman.

That dial's just begging to be turned. =)

[Lem_Gambino]

You turn the dial southward, and the south hallway lights up. So does the uber-hot furnace. It's even hotter than it already was; if you enter the room you're going to get BBQ'd for sure. >)

You turn the dial west, making the west hallway bright enough to see. You head west and save your game. GAME SAVED! You then go south, and end up back the bars. Araches is fed up with this pointless wandering and forcefully drags you back to the dial. You then look south, and see the dull red glow coming from the furnace room, just bright enough to see. You can feel the heat coming from the furnace; it's not as hot as it was before, but it's still not safe to cross yet. The dial is already pointing west.

Whew. Exits are North, South, East(dark), and West.

[Xion]

hmmm...

Turn Dial: North
Attempt to travel south

[cooba]

Stole : CrazyT from Fox
Use CrazyT on bars

[Lem_Gambino]

Argh. The last week of high school is ALWAYS the most difficult.

Anyway...you turn the dial north, and the south hallway goes out. It's lit up by the flames emitting from the furnace. You try to go south, but the intense heat is too much for your feeble party to handle...themselves. You cannot steal the CrazyT because Bill Gates aleady bought it from Fox. >=)

Exits are north, south(not), east, and west, both of which are dark.

[cooba]

Turn Dial : West

Awake Fox
Ask Fox : "WHICH WAY BILL GATES WENT OUT OF THIS ROOM AFTER HE BOUGHT
TEH CRAZYT?! WHY DIDN'T YOU SHOW US THAT WAY???//!!!11"
Try to say : ">((((((("

[Lem_Gambino]

You turn the dial west. The south hallway goes out while the west hallway lights up. Fox is not in this room. You try to say ">(((((((" but end up saying ",9999999" instead. Keep practicing! ;)

[Xion]

POV: Shuri
Take team of females and go south

POV: Uberbob
Take team of whatever's left and go north

[Lem_Gambino]

Shuri takes Araches and Leetzan south, but the furnace's intense heat makes it impossible to get far into the furnace room.
Uberbob leads the (fairly insane) party north. There is a lever here.

Team <s>stupid</s> Uberbob exits: North(dark), South, and West.
Team Shuri exits: North, West(no).

My page, not yours.:p

[cooba]

POV : Uberbob
Pull lever

POV : Shuri
Turn dial : East

[Xion]

Shuri: Turn Dial North
Uberbob: Pull Lever (North room lights)
Shuri: Go: North
Rejoin Party
Go: North
Analyze Monolith

[Violet CLM]

Organize morale building Capture the Flag game between Team Shuri and Team Stupid.

[Ekardnamal]

POV: Shuri

Action: Ask Araches and L33tz4n what we should do next

[Lem_Gambino]

I...LIVE.

Uberbob pulls the lever, causing the north hallway to light up.
Shuri turns the dial east. The west hallway goes dark while the east one lights up.
Shuri turns the dial north, plunging the east hallway into darkness.
The north hallway is already lit, but you pull the lever anyway. The north hallway is dark while the south lights up.
Party regroups. Much celebration. :D
You take a look at the monolith, but you can't see it in the dark. It's suspended above a bottomless pit, however, and any attempt to tamper with it will cause you to fall to your DOOM.
You try to organize a CTF game, but since you have no flags, you can't. =O
Shuri asks Leetzan and Araches what to do next. Araches says, "The ratio to light against dark is too unbalanced here. Let's move someplace lighter." Leetzan says, "There must be a reason why there is hot machine and a cold machine in this place...Air Conditioning?"
Fooruman picks his nose.

You're standing in the dark monolith room. Only exit is south.
There, happy now? >=/

[cooba]

Turn Dial : South

[Xion]

Go: South
Pull Lever
Go: North
Obsurve Monolith
Obsurve Room

[Lem_Gambino]

There is no dial to turn.
You go south and pull the lever, then go back north. The monolith is hanging over a bottomless pit, and any attempts so far to mess with it have resulted in death.

Araches looks like she'll strangle you if you keep trying to mess with something that has no apparent purpose. Exits are south.

[Xion]

Look at Araches
Say: "Well, if YOU have some idea on what to do, why don't YOU do it?"
==Emphasise the word "You"

[Lem_Gambino]

"Because you haven't told me to do it yet XD," replies Araches.

[Violet CLM]

"You can't act without instruction?"

[Lem_Gambino]

"I don't know what you're talking about," says Araches, and goes south to the lever. "Coming?" The rest of the party members follow, leaving you behind. Shall you join them?

[Xion]

Follow Araches

[Lem_Gambino]

You and the party are back in the lever room. Exits are north, south, and west. Now what?

[Violet CLM]

Make Araches be the leader for now.
Do not shift POV.
Follow the leader's instructions until everyone is out of this underground area.

[Lem_Gambino]

Araches is now party leader! However she has no idea what to do next. >=D What, did you think Rad would make it that easy?
"Was it the hot machine, or the cold machine?" Leetzan mumbles to herself.

[Xion]

glance at L33tz4n
say: "come again?"

[Strato]

ok, care to fill me in on the latest map, puzzle anf all that info?

[Lem_Gambino]

Inf: We're in an under ground bunker-type place on Antifoo.
"I was thinking about the hot and cold machines, and how they affect hot chocolate," she replies. "I think I lost my sanity since I join3d thi5 quest7." Everyone nods in agreement.
"Th47 co1d ma(hin3...m4bye...yes! No, maybe not...oyi, I can't think."
Araches hits Uberbob on the head, knocking him out cold.
"Nope, still can't think. It's too hot in here..."

[Xion]

POV: Shuri
Go: South
Turn Dial East
Go: East
Go: South
Say: "Cool enough for you to think?"

[Lem_Gambino]

You turn the dial east and go to the cooling room. The cooling machine is running full blast, as you can tell by the air rushing into the vent. "Cool enough for you to think?" you ask Leetzan. "Yes," she replies. "but I lost my train of thought."
Araches rolls her eyes. Uberbob is waking up, but she grabs him and Faw and conks their heads together, knocking them both out. "You certainly have some odd friends," Fooruman says to you.

You glance at Xion's <s>badly</s> handsomely drawn map. Exits are north.

[Violet CLM]

"Says the man who hid in a trench for years, after associating himself with the Ultimate Evil and a thirteen year old."

[Xion]

Say: "The cold machine...maybe..."

[Lem_Gambino]

"Says the man who hid in a trench for years, after associating himself with the Ultimate Evil and a thirteen year old." you say. Fooruman raises an eyebrow and says, "And you think being trapped on gremlin infested island, being attacked by evil merpeople in and underwater city where they worship gerbils, messing around in a shopping center supported by pieces of a magical bookmark, and nearly getting killed by a thief who has, in my opinion, the stupidest name in all existance is far odder than MY crazy adventures?! I'll have you know that I have turned bread into base metals and dropped TNT onto one of the most annoying travel agents I've ever met!!! And let's not forget about that Footrix incident..."

ONE HOUR LATER...

You and your teammates wake up as Fooruman finishes his story. He looks around confused, and says, "What were we talking about again?" Araches looks like she's ready to beat Fooruman to a bloody pulp. You mention something about the cold machine to your teammates, but they're too sleepy to notice except Fooruman, who's busy picking his nose again. "Well, I DID have a cold machine back at home before Unfooruman came. It was called a freezer."

All who have lost their sanity playing this game please raise their LEFT foot. B)

[Strato]

I'd love to join in, but SOMEBODY won't give me enough details. Don't make me have to talk to Xion!

[Xion]

Looks like you'll have to, VIERA.


Here's the situation. We solved the sphere problem (seasons) and krpwned the enemies. HOWEVER, Shuri was the last one alive, so we now have an option of the POV system [(c)2003 Xion] where we can control both Uberbob and Shuri.

Now, we're in an underground labrynth. The switches control lighting. Where we entered, we have a path south to a lever...changes the North and East lights on/off. To the west of that we have a welded gate, but it once had a large static-electric sphere that blew up a lightbulb.

To the east, after we light things up, we get to another lever. Controls North/South lighting. To the north is a monolith suspended over a pit of nothingness, and the monolith is clicking. I myself think it's a red herring, but I can not be a hundred percent sure of that.

To the south of that, there is a dial. Whichever direction the dial is pointing, that path is lit up. To the east of that, there's a room which leads south to a room with a warm machine, a set of bars, and a lever. We lost our spear and katana trying to toggle the lever from behind the bars, but to no avail.

Back to the dial. South is unpassable because it's some kind of furnace room. East leads to a fork. North is Fox, a half-kitfox half-invisible gremlin merchant that can sell spells for items and sell items for spells. The south path has a cold machine with a vent, which shuri got stuck in once.


We are currently in the cold machine room, only exit is north.


Araches claims to know the answer, where it involves the dial...L33tz4n believes that a piece of the puzzle lies in the cold machine somehow.

<hr>Anyways...


Awake L33tz4n
Say: "Didn't you mention something about the cold vent? I'm sure that this puzzle has a solution...but individually we can't figure it out. Let's put our brainpower together and solve this puzzle so we can confront Blackraptor and defeat him Once and for all!"

[Lem_Gambino]

Sorry for being a carpy GM, but I'm fairly new at this.^^;;

Anyway, you Leetzan and ask her, ""Didn't you mention something about the cold vent? I'm sure that this puzzle has a solution...but individually we can't figure it out. Let's put our brainpower together and solve this puzzle so we can confront Blackraptor and defeat him Once and for all!"
"Yes, let's do that," she says sleepily. "You have beem making a map of this place, haven't you?"

Happy now, Strato? BP

[Strato]

Analyze : Cold machine : turned on?
Analyze : Hot Machione : turned on?

[Lem_Gambino]

Cold machine is on. You turned the hot machine off a while ago.

[Violet CLM]

"Yes. I've been keeping it on the back of Page 74."
Show L33tz4n the ugly map.

[Lem_Gambino]

There is no page 74 in your inventory, and if there was it wasn't useful at that time any way (you were all on Superultramegatropolis or whateverthat place is called), and since all useless items are part of the Thirdnotewhatever, it is now part of the Thirdnote and is rendered unreadable. You do have a nice bookmark, however. Now if you could only find something to write with... *goes off to find inventory*

EDIT: Here is the latest version of the Inventory, as of page 167:

[Xion]

Scrawl map on wall

[Lem_Gambino]

Using the Ice Pick, you scribble a map pf the underground maze on the the rusted wall. Funny, the Hot and Cold Machines are right across from each other, with the furnace room in the middle of them. How odd. X)

[Xion]

...I have an idea.

Find any spare articles of clothing...a robe, a cloak, anything large and cloth.

Cover the vent with the robe/cloak/large cloth piece.

Have fooruman hold the cloth in place at ALL COSTS...even if it involves some kind of Foo magic...any at all. If it's something stupid like "Summon Refridgerator magnet" or something crazy like that.

Take the rest of the party off to the furnace area.

Analyze furnace area

[Lem_Gambino]

Fooruman doesn't know any Foo Magic, he only knows Sux Magic. He doesn't want to be left alone because he thinks the Green Peace People will attack him. Now what?

[Risp_old]

"Green Peace is just a story made up to scare small children."

[Lem_Gambino]

Judging by his last actions, Fooruman has the intelligence of a 5-year-old. He doesn't believe you and thinks you're an agent sent to capture him so you could figure out how to turn bread into base metals. Better have someone else do it.

[Violet CLM]

Make Greenpeace do it.

[Lem_Gambino]

Greenpeace is not in your party =( Perhaps if YOU USED SOMEONE IN YOUR PARTY that would make things easier. >(

[Risp_old]

Have Araches do it.

Have Risp claim the page.

[Lem_Gambino]

Araches covers the vent with the Druid Robe, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the air flow. Suddenly, the robe is sucked into the vent, never to be seen again (at least for now). Risp is not with you, so no page there. >X)

COMPASS DIRECTIONS, MORTAL. *holds a Salad Fork to Xion's throat*

[Xion]

NORTH
EAST
LOOK SOUTH


Are you happy, simpleton?

[Lem_Gambino]

*lol @ Xion*:D You look into the furnace room. The heat seems to have died down signifigantly; you MIGHT be able to cross the room.

[Xion]

Attempt to cross room

[Lem_Gambino]

Since it's right there, what the heck.

You step into the furnace room. It's still pretty hot, but it feels more like the hottest day in summer than a boiling oven. You start to cross the room and sweat profusely(sp?). The ripples of heat from the furnace distort your vision, and seems like half an hour until you finally reach the next room, which is much cooler than the previous room. You're still dazed from the heat, but as your sight clears, you see that you're on the other side of the room with the bars; the lever side.

*much cheering*

And look, the katana you dropped (and anything else you tried to reach the lever with)is there too!

*more cheering*

Faw stumbles into the room, holding the Druid Robe that you failed to notice as you crossed the furnace room.

*halleluah(sp?), followed by a wave*

Well, now that that ordeal is overwith, what shall you do? Exits are East(back to the furnace room), and West.

[Violet CLM]

Take Katana, Druid Robe, and anything else that may have been lost and is now here.

[Xion]

SAVE GAME

[Lem_Gambino]

You lost the spear, katana, and robe, but you have it all back now. GAME SAVED!

Game was saved again spontaneously(sp?). XP

[Xion]

Pull Lever

[Lem_Gambino]

You pull the lever. Stangely, nothing happens. You then realize that it's very dark in here; the only light is coming from the furnace room...and Araches' glowing red eyes of rage.

[Xion]

look at Araches
Say: "What?"

[Lem_Gambino]

"I'll tell you what," she stammers. "We get stuck on Antifoo Isle, nearly get KILLED, and now we're at a lever that doesn't even work!!"
She looks like she's going to maul everyone in the room (starting with Uberbob...remember him?), but Faw knocks her out by bonking her with the handle of his spear. Disaster averted! XD

[Xion]

Say: "Somebody's PMSing."
==sound sarcastic.
Go: Back through the Furnace room
Turn Dial West
Go: North
Pull Lever
==If North != Lit
====Pull Lever
Go: North
Obsurve Monolith

[Lem_Gambino]

You do all that (I'm being lazy) and look at the monolith. It hasn't changed at all since you last visited it, and it's still hanging above that bottomless pit we all know and loathe.

[Xion]

Oh, I know...

Go: South
Pull Lever
==if South != lit
====pull lever
Go: South
Turn dial East
Split party: Males/Females

Post Results

[VelKa]

GO: DENNIS.

[Xion]

GO: DENNIS.
DENNIS IS NOT A DIRECTION YOU CRETIN!!!

[Lem_Gambino]

You cannot go Dennis because it is blocked.

You enter the dial room and turn it east, then split up the party. The males cross the sweltering furnace room ("This isn't good for my Frosted Flakes!!" Faw Complains.), while the females wait. Somehow, you think this is a bad idea. You both call out to each other, only to realize you already turned the dial east =O.

[Xion]

Males: Call to females: "TURN THE DIAL WEST!!!"

Females: Follow Males Directions.

[Lem_Gambino]

You call out to the ladies, "TURN THE DIAL WEST!" They do that. The furnace flares up once again, making it impossible to go back unless it's turned off. Now what? Only exit is west.

[Xion]

Check lighting of male's room
==Is the lighting on?

[Lem_Gambino]

Yes, but the next room isn't lit up.

[Xion]

...come again?

Women: Go: West, South
Women: Wave to men
Men: Wave to women

[Lem_Gambino]

The girls walk to the other side of the bars and wave to them. You wave back. You still think leaving Shuri and Leetzan alone with Araches was a bad Idea.

[Xion]

Men: Say: "Okay...let's see if this works now..."
Men: Pull Lever

[Lem_Gambino]

"Okay, let's see if this works now," the men all say at once. You pull the lever. The lights go on, and lead into the next room.

[Xion]

Say: "umm...what happened?"

[Lem_Gambino]

"It looks like the lights in the next room just went on," says Fooruman. Doi.

[Xion]

Anime sweatdrop
Say: "What room, though? doof."
