All right. First off, the rules. Before you guys go hating on me for specifying the rules when you already know them, I would like to say I have changed/removed some rules.
One, the most important change, is that there is a button on every competitor's belt. Press the button, and you are instantly out of the game. The cannon will sound, and the helicopter will pick the person up. This reduces the risk of the competitor dying. I don't want too many funerals. However, if the competitor fails to press the button before he/she dies, then it does not matter. It is their judgement to realize when to press it. When the eliminated competitors are seen at the end of every night, it will read ELIMINATED next to their name and picture if the person pressed the button, and DEAD if they didn't. If another competitor presses it, then the one who pressed it is out. You can retract the button at any time to prevent it from being pressed in certain situations.
Two, there are no power ups of any kind scattered around. Only the ones found at the Cornucopia. So no Mushrooms on plants or anything like that.
Three, there are only sixteen competitors instead of the usual twenty-four. As such, there are only eight districts instead of twelve.
And four, the two people who are reaped from each of the eight districts can be any gender combination. Other than those four, the rules remain the same. The story starts right after the reapings take place, so the competitors are saying their goodbyes as the story begins.
Also, the story constantly shifts POV, and I will tell you when. It won't fluctuate enough to confuse you but enough to create some diversity. The only time it shifts fast like that is right before the gong sounds to start the game.
Just so you know, here are the competitors and their respective districts:
District 1: Mario, Luigi
District 2: Peach, Daisy
District 3: Yoshi, Birdo
District 4: Toad, Toadette
District 5: Wario, Waluigi
District 6: Rosalina, Luma
District 7: Bowser, Bowser Jr.
District 8: Goomba, Koopa
Last thing, you guys get to partially decide who will be eliminated! Vote for the person you want gone! Each vote will increase the chance of the player getting voted out, but it will never be certain.
I am Matt1251, and without further ado, welcome to the first annual Mario Games!
