Just remembered, there was a LoT inspired part of the game. I hadn't thought of it while writing it, but when Greg pointed it out I realized it was the case.

I was just explaining MouseAdventure to my boyfriend yesterday, and how they had to invent a category of non-competitors just to give someone else a chance to win.

- but mostly how, once non-competitive, we started to do badly and more badly and still more badly. I believe it was a combination of other teams getting better -and- lack of competitive oomph on our part. I don't miss playing, but it would sure be fun to help behind the scenes. I kinda miss taking part in some way. Playing was never the same once we were never really playing.

You should totally help out. It was a whole new way to take part and in many ways, MUCH more fun than playing it ourselves, as we had also gotten so pathetic that our squabbling was even more intense and less worth the stress. Plus, behind the scenes, how awesome is that?

One team wore a GoPro camera while playing. The time lapse video is broken up into 4 sections. Here's the YouTube playlist.

If you watch the Rockets quest and skip to 2:45 you can briefly see me talking to them at the top of Main Street Station. Then they go looking for AK's son who is wearing the same thing I am and catch him getting off the Omnibus.

My back makes a brief appearance in the Bears video.

We have a great compilation video of the charades. I'll post the link once it's public.

The charades were an awesome idea. So much fun!

Definitely glad it worked. I did that one by thinking "what would I hate?" and then assumed others would enjoy it. There was some serious concern we'd get kicked off the island though.

And as my first writing job in many years, I must admit I miss having Steve bemoaning the decline of a once great institution afterward.
