Emerald Falcon Posted February 9, 2025 Posted February 9, 2025 Woo! I'm excited to win...or to lose. Either's fine by me. --------- I was not a very skilled body-hopper, so it was harder than you might expect for me to make my way among the athletes. I could only hop once or twice per day, so I had to find someone who already planned on going -- I didn't want to set something up very far in advance, and it might not have worked out anyway. But now I was in the general city of the Games; all I had to do was wait for the opening ceremonies. Watch for athletes leaving the arena for some street food or a bathroom break, make sure my current body was somewhere that'd be walked-by but wouldn't be seen-- a dumpster would work, though the smell started to get to me after an hour -- and then strike. Often I'd run into souls that could handle new bodies. It really screws up the area to have a string of disappearances -- well, of people that would be missed, that is, and that's definitely the case at the Olympics -- so I just give them a light shove on my way in. Push them in the general vicinity of the body I just left. If it works out, they've got a body to live in while I have my fun, and I put them back when I'm done using their identity. Usually. Sometimes I can't get a hold of them, and sometimes I get their body killed, which...well, that would be really awkward going to find them, you know? "Oh, hi, thanks for letting me steal your job and connections and all that. I'm done with it but I can't give it back. Really funny story, haha..." Could you imagine the embarrassment? No, when that happens, I just leave. They'll find out eventually anyway. But this time should be fine. It's just a few athletes; they're disciplined enough to have strong souls, and their bodies are resilient. I don't see a way I could be leaving a massive fiasco behind me this time. I shifted in my dumpster. Someone was walking by. Talking on the phone, not to "coach," no mention of "trainer," so this might not be an athlete. I strained my ears. "And the other contestants, they--" well, well, well. Only an hour and a half and I had an in. One jump out, grab the mind and reel myself in, toss the soul into the dumpster with the body I just left, and keep on walking. I made my excuses to whoever was on the phone -- "sorry, just saw something odd, I'll call you back" -- and checked myself for a team ID of some sort. Where was I supposed to be staying tonight? More importantly, what event was I going to be in? 2
Oxblood Beagle Posted February 9, 2025 Posted February 9, 2025 The ghost is not dead. The ghost is alive. The ghost cannot touch. The body can. The ghost does not have the body. The body is missing. The ghost knows the body. The body is away. The ghost is present. The ghost is ready. The ghost is, excited! The body is missing. The ghost knows a body. The body is not a body. The ghost sees a body that is not the body. The ghost becomes a body. The ghost is ready. The ghost is a body. The ghost shall play.
Steeldancer he/him Posted February 9, 2025 Author Posted February 9, 2025 There are about 5 hours left before the Opening Ceremonies ends. Please remember to submit any actions in your actual PM, not the anonymous one, before then.

Oxblood Beagle Posted February 9, 2025 Posted February 9, 2025 I have been given the role of Referee! I have the ability to give a Yellow Card to a set of athletes participating in the Association Football, or the World Cup! The Captain, Goalkeeper, Midfielder, and Striker! Last I checked the World Cup and Olympics are different but perhaps there is some overlap! 1

Steeldancer he/him Posted February 10, 2025 Author Posted February 10, 2025 And the opening ceremonies are over. PLEASE DO NOT BE IN YOUR ANONYMOUS ACCOUNTS DURING ROLLOVER DUE TO SHENANIGANS. If the day goes up and you have no new stuff in your GM PM, you are good to be in the account. Thank you!
Steeldancer he/him Posted February 10, 2025 Author Posted February 10, 2025 (edited) Day One: Freestyle 400 and Balance Beam "Wow, what a wonderful set of performances that was!" "I mean, some of them were certainly some interesting choices in terms of showing off the local cultures. And I have no idea how they managed to get Taylor Swift." "Well regardless, now that the snoozer- ahem, very exciting and long line of athletes have entered into the arena and the torch is lit, the games can officially begin! So what are the big events happening today?" "Well, on the swimming front we're starting off hot with the Freestyle 400. We even have some individuals widely predicted to be able to break the world record!" "Well that's incredible! And on the gymnastics front, we're beginning the all-round competition, which of course contains the 4 biggest gymnastics events. Today we have the Balance beam! It's always sad to see people fall off during their incredible routines, but may I remind the audience that if they tried even just walking across the thing they'd probably fall off, much less trying to do flips." "Well let's keep an eye on the biggest teams. It's sure to be exciting!" ~~~ Today's events are the Freestyle 400 and Balance Beam. Please vote for your predictions in those colors. Also, PSA. I will be fairly harsh on inactivity in this game, due to its nature of relying on your teammates so much. If you go a cycle without any activity in your document, thread, or any actions submitted, you will get a warning. If you go two, I will have you replaced. I hope this won't be an issue, since there's plenty of time in the cycle. The Cycle will end at 5:30 PM MST 2/11/2025, in about 48 hours.

Coral Swan Posted February 10, 2025 Posted February 10, 2025 54 minutes ago, Oxblood Beagle said: Coral Swan for the Balance Beam. I will also vote Coral Swan for the balance beam.
Amethyst Scorpion Posted February 10, 2025 Posted February 10, 2025 I would like to vote for Amethyst Scorpion for the Freestyle 200. And to follow the trend, Coral Swan for the Balance Beam.
Steeldancer he/him Posted February 10, 2025 Author Posted February 10, 2025 Small error, it is indeed the Freestyle 400, not the 200. I will take all votes for the 200 as being the 400, my mistake
