Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | The raid on the wealthier area was successful! The four companions had Floyd | gotten all the candy they wanted and more. But they had to eat some of Floyd | it, to lessen the load, and get the energy to carry their heavy bags. Floyd | It gave them the energy to argue, too, loud enough to split up and get Floyd | lost. What's worse, four bullies a few years older than them came over Floyd | from the rich side of town to vandalize and terrorize it a bit. Floyd | Toothpaste and shaving cream and even, sadly, mailbox baseball--well, Floyd | why not finish by returning some "stolen" candy to their community, Floyd | minus a suitable finder's fee. Floyd | Floyd | That's where you come in. You're just a poltergeist, and all you can Floyd | do is blink, but maybe you can help the kids get home safely with all Floyd | their candy. The folks above--in heaven--gave it to you as a first Floyd | job. You got kicked to limbo because you never DID anything positive, Floyd | even though you wanted to. Your supervisor lets you listen in on their Floyd | plans--yup, these guys could be taken down a peg. And the kids deserve Floyd | better. (Press any key) | DavidW says, "Four kids with candy. Four bullies. Help the kids. Defeat the bullies. And we're a poltergeist from Heaven." | |
| DavidW pushes the green 'space' button. | ||

Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "Why do I sense this will just be a single puzzle?" | |
| DavidW says, "I sense four puzzles." | ||
| Jacqueline asks, "A single, complimicated puzzle?" | ||

| DavidW says, "I thought Dropout was supposed to move to my position." | ||

Floyd ] Rock/Water 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > X UNDERLING Floyd | Floyd | He doesn't look outright evil, but he has that cringy underling look, Floyd | like he's laughing at a joke that never was funny, but he heard it Floyd | from someone cooler.

Floyd ] Rock/Fire 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > X SPORTO Floyd | Floyd | You'd have been jealous of his physique, but now you know the more Floyd | obnoxious sportos destroy theirs pretty quickly with beer, because Floyd | stolen candy is really lame once you turn seventeen. Wait. No. You Floyd | can't be that spiteful if you're trying to get to heaven. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

I know I Floyd | didn't implement the costumes or the kids' candy bags (uh, less Floyd | temptation,) but--they're eponymous enough, I hope you have an idea. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "brb" | |
| Jacqueline disappears through an invisible gap in the MUD. You think you may have heard the sounds of chatting before the gap closed again. | ||
| Jacqueline arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | Jacqueline exclaims (at DW), "!" | |
| Jacqueline exclaims, "I knew it was maga's birthday. Had forgotten it is also yours!" | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Happy birthday, Mr. W." | ||
| DavidW says, "hee. Thanks. Happy Birthday to maga as well, please." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "He is over 2K miles from here, but I will pass it along when I 'see' him" | ||

| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x prime" | ||
Floyd ] Paper/Fire 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > X PRIME Floyd | Floyd | He's sort of cardboardy, but it looks pretty realistic in the dark. Floyd | Floyd | > | inky says, "he's more than meets the eye!" | |
| DavidW asks, "I assume we don't want to put bullies and trick-or-treaters together?" | ||
| DavidW says, "But I'm still clueless what we ought to do instead" | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "s" | ||
Floyd ] Scissors/Fire 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > S Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Scissors/Fire Floyd | A kid dressed as Marty McFly mopes here. Floyd | Floyd | McFly thinks how it'll be so cool to own a DeLorean when he grows up. Floyd | Floyd | > | inky says, "maybe you need to move the kids to some safe zone while avoiding the bullies" | |

| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x pee wee" | ||
Floyd ] Scissors/Wood 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > X PEE WEE Floyd | Floyd | It's hard to botch a cheap suit and bow tie, and this kid doesn't. Floyd | Floyd | Pee-Wee adjusts his suit, muttering no WAY he'll wear one on a normal Floyd | day, and maybe his parents tricked him into wearing this costume Floyd | today. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "w" | ||

Floyd ] Scissors/Water 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > X LUKE Floyd | Floyd | Really, Luke's costume isn't that tricky, but it looks okay. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "ask luke about candy" | ||

| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x preppie" | ||
Floyd ] Paper/Water 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > X PREPPIE Floyd | Floyd | He's wearing a sweater tied around his waist, which is kind of stupid Floyd | given the weather. He's got a perpetual sneer, and you're half Floyd | surprised he's not wearing sunglasses at night. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "No obvious 'safe zone'." | |
| DavidW says, "We have 9 locations and 8 NPCs." | ||
| DavidW asks, "Should I move preppie and dropout together?" | ||
| Jacqueline asks, "To make them bond and let the drop out see the error of their ways?" | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "bt e" | ||
Floyd ] Paper/Water 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > BT E Floyd | Floyd | The preppie sees the Dropout to the east and sneers a bit. There's no Floyd | time for in-depth alpha male stuff right now, though. Just picking on Floyd | little kids. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "l" | ||
Floyd ] Paper/Water 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > L Floyd | Floyd | Paper/Water Floyd | You're at the west edge of where you can travel. You can go north, Floyd | east or south.

Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW asks, "Either we get the bullies to battle each other, or get the good kids into a safety-in-numbers huddle, or there's some pairings where the good kids can defeat the bullies?" | |

Floyd ] Scissors/Water 9:31 Floyd | Floyd | > BT E Floyd | Floyd | Pee Wee Herman and Luke Skywalker see each other! They begin Floyd | squabbling about how they need to keep apart so they can each hide Floyd | easier, and their collective sugar rush escalates the conversation, Floyd | which totally defeats the point. The other two kids run in to break it Floyd | up, but then the four big nasty teens do their part too--sort of. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | *** OOPS--the friends should be kept apart *** Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game, QUIT or UNDO the last Floyd | command?

Pee Wee Herman's friends, hearing Floyd | the shouting, feel bad about the earlier break-up--but they are no Floyd | match for the Dropout's "friends." The kids are candy-less. This sort Floyd | of performance won't get you out of Limbo. Or, wait, maybe it will.

| Jacqueline asks, "What, get the poor kids into the rich areas?" | ||
| DavidW says, "Yes, the bullies are [underling, sporto, preppie, dropout]. The friends are [Optimus Prime, McFly, Pee Wee, Luke]." | ||

| DavidW says (to Jacqueline), "I have no idea which kids are rich or which are poor." | ||
| DavidW says, "I'm just trying to come up with a strategy for winning, since the game isn't really being helpful in telling us our goal." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Well, I was making the (assumption) that poor started out in the poor area and vice versa, and that we needed to swap them. But, um, I have no idea why I am making that assumption." | ||
