Thousand Roads Updates - May 2019 It's been about a month since the board opened to the public, and we're off to an excellent start! With nearly 50 stories and over 500 posts made, it was a busy opening month, and I'm glad to have all of you here. I'm excited to be able to make a first update...

All right, I don't have much familiarity with Smash outside of the Gamecube version, but thankfully this story didn't require a ton of knowledge of the lore. Neat stuff! I see you're playing to your strengths here with multi-universe shenanigans and crossover appeal. Not much to say on the...

It's that time of year again! We have the starters and box legendaries spoiled now and are starting to get some gameplay spoilers, so... what are people's impressions of the games thus far? I've been pretty excited about the stuff revealed so far. Like the designs, happy about the...

Okay, I definitely need to jump on this one before it gets totally away from me. I was going to say I probably won't have much to say on a chapter-by-chapter basis since you've got several posted already, but I guess I ended up taking a fair amount of notes anyway. I hope you find them helpful...

Great to see this posted at last! And clearly a VERY different story than the previous version, wow. Interesting to see what's stayed the same versus what has changed... the idea of a trainer challenge and the Alolan setting, of course, and some of the characters as well. Let's go! This strikes...

Thanks for fixing the paragraph spacing on these chapters! They're much easier to read this way. Ah, so we get to see some of the Z-research mentioned earlier! A little more of Iona, too, although Roman's section definitely dominates here. But Iona's egg, yellow with a red top... If Lynne has a...

This is going to be a trip! I know very little about Sonic the Hedgehog, so I'm coming into this one pretty much blind, haha. We'll see how it goes! I'm kind of curious which of these characters are canon characters (any of them?? I know Infinite is, when he shows up, and Shadow was mentioned...

Ah, so you thought it would be like a vote thing, where each Mafia player would pick a target and then the one with the most Mafia votes being the one eliminated? Sorry about that, I hadn't considered that interpretation of the rules and hadn't thought to clarify. I'll try to make things easier...

Good game, everyone, and congratulations to the Innocent faction! I... have never actually seen a game go through with zero mislynches before. Impressive play on the part of the Innocents! Special shout-out to NonAnalogue for correctly guessing both initial Mafia players in the first two days of...

At last it seems that people are able to speak openly about the powers that they've gained, and slowly, as the day wears on, something like a coherent picture begins to emerge. Each revelation seems to bring something strange with it: two healers? And a double healing that should have been a...

This is a delightful one-shot! Groudon's such a lovable blockhead, and he tries so hard! The character comedy is great, from Groudon's aforementioned earnest struggles to construct the perfect map, Mew's brusque self-centeredness, and Arceus' vanity, which ultimately lets Groudon save the day...

There are twenty-four hours remaining in Day Four. Currently only one vote has been cast. Loki - 1 (qva)

On the one hand, it's too bad that Discord inadvertently gave away the joke. On the other, that was funny in and of itself, sooo everything about this is good.

No worries, it's a totally understandable impulse and something I probably wasn't clear enough about! I just thought it would be unfair to let people try to get information out of something that I guarantee is 100% random, and potentially unfair to people who may have gotten roles that don't fit...

Please don't take role suitability as evidence one way or another. I started with a list of roles I wanted in the game, then randomized them between players and did my best to flavor them so that they worked. In some cases the assigned role fit the character brilliantly. In other cases it did...

No travesty here! This chapter is already looking better in terms of punctuation and such things. Not sure what this sentence means, though. When you're writing spoken dialogue, the punctuation almost always wants to go inside the quotation marks. Here you also want a question mark rather than...

Author's Notes: Back with part two! In which we actually get to meet the story's namesake. Before we get started, though, I just wanted to give a shoutout to qva, who drew a couple of awesome pieces of fanart for this story. Here's Sara with the Mew carving, as well as what the picture her dad...

It seems quieter than usual when everyone gathers together the next morning. At first most assume this is simply a grim reminder of their waning numbers, but it isn't long before the group realizes that they're missing their usual rapping serenade. A search party is dispatched, but without much...

(( Help I'm dumb. I assume we're to submit actions/requests here, but I'm not totally sure what my options are here. Chat somebody or pick an application? ))

The day starts innocuously enough with rampant speculation about Dave and Karo's relationship, but it isn't long until other suspicions arise. Specifically, Starr doesn't care for the scyther-morph who's been lurking around near the edge of the group. "You think I'm a member of the Mafia?" Mia...
