Rumor of the Gemstones: Exploration Edition

[MracY]

I apologise for doubting you.
Seeing a display of possibly bad mechanics simply raised my eyebrow for a second.
It's because I have wanted to have high expectations of your game from the very beginning.

It's okay, I don't blame you when I quit so suddenly last time without any notice. I appreciate your high expectations though.

I attempt to move towards the golem's head. I use the rope to climb if necessary in doing so.

[MracY]

I move to the bumper cars to see what it is that's attracting so much attention.
I ask someone there where I am and what this place is.

Plant the minibomb next to the door with no handle.

Light fuse.

Run to the other side of the room.

So, if there is a scratch large enough for the bomb to sit in comfortably, you only light the fuse? You don't put the bomb into the scratch?
This sure is sounding quite ominous.

[Omeganitros]

Since I'm still in the hallway with the four doors, two on each side...is the end of the hallway just a blank wall? I feel I should carefully inspect it, knock on it, etc

Technicalities! =p

Also had thoughts about just handing the lit bomb to snowc.

Adding a new rule:

You may not harm or kill other players in any possible way. However, you can still interact with them and use gemstone effects on them or near them as long as they are not negatively affected in the process.~

gold stinger pulls out some of the grass and stashes it in his pocket for safe-keeping, all the while making sure some of the grass still has its roots. He then takes some soil from the same patch he took the flowers from and puts that in his pocket as well. By this time, his pockets are overflowing with nature, but he still hasn't has his fill. Gold proceeds to take some more dirt and place it inside his mouth, almost gagging from reflex. However, after a short while, he grows to like the soil swishing around on his tongue. In fact, he even tells himself that it tastes like chocolate pudding and brownies! (The truth is much more horrifying, so let's just go with that...) Once Gold is finished with his taste-testing fiasco, he stuffs even more grass into his pockets, moves forward, and leaves a small trail of grass blades on top of the tall grass. Unfortunately though, the grass blends in with the surrounding environment. Before long, he loses sight of the trail he created. Gold does not find anything interesting while heading north, and the grassy plains still seem to stretch out endlessly in all four directions.

DarkManticoreX2 searches the door leading to room 101 for any cracks wide enough to insert the tiny bomb he found inside an opening. Fortunately, there is one crack slightly above the center of the door, and he places the bomb inside the crack with the fuse sticking outside of it. Dark then lights the bomb with the remaining fire from the lighter and runs as quickly as he can towards the rightmost corner of the hallway. Everyone on floor 1 runs to the other side, and approximately eight seconds later, the bomb explodes and the entrance to room 101 is revealed. Dark checks the lighter for any extra fluid but is left without a successful result. Dark then enters room 101, and the door cryptically repairs itself to its former state. The first thing Dark notices is that he is suddenly wearing a diving helmet. He takes in his surroundings and finds a wondrous underwater paradise. All around him, fishes of entirely different species and colors swim gracefully through the sea. He spots a school of clown-fish, a few sea urchins, and some green and orange seahorses in front of him. He also notices some glowing red algae on a few coral reefs near his left side. To his right, he sees a dark, brown cave about thirty meters wide. Behind and below him, he does not spot anything out of the ordinary.

Guest15937 decides to hike towards the stone golem's head. After a long while, he progresses to about one-fifth of the way to the end of its arm. He does not find anything of interest so far in his path.

MracY heads towards the bumper car ride to discover what's attracting so many people there. After a long walk, he finally reaches the line for the bumper cars. MracY asks a young man who is about twenty-three years of age, "hello, where am I? And what is this place?" The young man replies, "Why, we're in Plane Palooza, the famous amusement park! This is the line for the bumper car ride; it's all the rave right now, so everyone who's anyone is in line to use their tickets. Are you feeling alright? You must be unwell if you can't remember where you grew up."

Omeganitros carefully studies the ends of the hallway, but they do not reveal anything of significant importance. He knocks on both walls, but they sound just like ordinary walls.

This sentence is confusing me, It DOESN'T cease? It doesn't come to an end to stretch out before him? Somewhat awkward choice of words not sure what you're trying to say unless you mean "and the grass below him stretches out before him infinitely in all four directons, seemingly.".

I meant that the grassy plains still seem to stretch out endlessly before you.

[gold stinger]

I'd like to commence trying to kick myself in the head.

also check wind direction using saliva on finger and throwing grass in the air.

undo shoelace on left shoe, and remove shoelace from my left shoe. rip off bottom part of shirt, and tie cloth piece around head using shoelace for sun shade & bandage for kicking my head in.

examine tall grass in pocket for any oddities.

[Guest15937]

I keep going towards the head, looking for objects of note on the way.

Will you please rephrase this action? I understand you're trying to kick yourself in the head, but I don't comprehend your wording very well.

Also, LOL at your animation.

[gold stinger]

I am undoing the shoelace on my left shoe and removing it from my shoe. And then I'm ripping off the bottom part of my shirt to use as a piece of cloth to cover the top of my head.

To keep it all together, I'm tying the shoelace around my head on top of the cloth almost in the way a bandana works, so I get some sun shade from the cloth and I look awesome.

What do you mean, "can't remember where you grew up"? If it's so famous, wouldn't lots of people come visit? Or are we on pocket planes or something similar?

I ask him this. I consequently search the amusement park for an exit.
If I don't find any exits, I find the tiger, and pet it.

[Omeganitros]

I sigh for my turn. Jk I try entering the doors, in this order: 101, 104, 103, 102. (Like, if 101 won't budge, then try 104, and so on until one opens and I go through)

You'll end up going through door 104 (vines door to grass wildlands)

Door 101 apparently re-made itself after I blew it up and went through.

[MracY]

It is possible that the game has been made to play as a single player game.
In that case it might be worthwhile to see if the bomb has respawned.

Although that not being the case might also be a nice mechanic.
I do wonder how much cooperation this game actually requires.

Maybe you can try searching for a bomb, and if you find one, see if it has any utility other than blowing up that door.

I should probably reveal this fact beforehand: this game is, in all intents and purposes, a multiplayer game. When an item is taken from its original location, it will most likely not re-spawn. However, this does not hold true for entrances both inside and outside of the apartment and walls.
