I would love to update you guys on my week, tell you about all the money I made, how the job search is going, all the interesting people I talked to.
Well, I guess it does involve an interesting person, so I might as well start there. Earlier this week, I started noticing this guy hanging around my matches. He had a weird sort of familiarity to him, so I assumed that maybe I owed him money, and decided not to approach him.
I woke up this morning, and I'm in a casino. I didn't think I was planning on getting that drunk last night. My follower was there to greet me, and tell me that I am to participate in some sort of poker tournament. He told me that I'm supposed to be winning a very special item in this tournament Usually I prefer cash prizes, but he sure talked the thing up enough, that it's probably worth a nice chunk of change.
I really don't like this place at all. I mean, I love casinos and all, but I don't really like waking up in one without an explanation. And I definitely don't like my sponsor, or whoever that was. Maybe he runs the place? Either way, he's creepy, and the sooner I win this and get to go home, the better. I've also got to work on an excuse to give my cousin, which is only going to get harder the longer this takes. I hope this isn't being broadcast or something.
The tournament is about to start. Better head out there. Wish me luck.
Not that I'll need it.
Welcome to the challenges mister House, it's been such a long time we've caught up. But I doubt you would recognize me at this point.

The rules are simple.
You all have individual challenges. These challenges, these SITUATIONS, are wrought from your own mind. And don't try wearing tinfoil hats to cheat the game, as it won't work and you'll end up making an ass of yourself.
Whether you meet your old allies or old foes is completely up to me and me alone.
If you all survive long enough, I might show my face. And then I shall be your final challenge.
There are no set hospitals or stores. They change depending on the world. I have no subjects. I make them out of the Page itself, and they suffice.

P.S. While I have my account I decided to hack this "Memphis Morrow's" account out of boredom.
