Infamous if (band wip) chap 3 (457k wrds) released (9/08/2024)

Yeah. Next elimination round hasn’t been in story yet that I know of? Did I miss one?

Nope. A winning band only gets an “advantage” — aka. some particular information, option, or opportunity that would give them an edge for that week’s challenge compared to the rest of the contestants.

I imagine a band being outright safe from elimination alongside having an advantage would cause a few problems for the show, like leaving little incentive for the past week’s winning band to put much effort into the upcoming challenge (thus giving BOTB a boring performance to air, as well as the given advantage being basically useless outside of a band deciding to keep themselves out of the bottom rankings, if they so choose) or the possibility that a band could win one challenge, then go along to theoretically win every single week, leaving them completely safe from elimination until the final competition.

Ok. That is fine to me. I should be capable of proving I will win, regardless of telling G to leave me alone.

Definitelly one of my favorite WIPs! Loved the angst between MC and Seven. Waiting anxiously for chapter 4!

Ive drank once. So much. Was still more in control than would expect. Too drunk to drive though. Only drank 40s and above, hard liquor. Several bottles. Was still feeling it next day.

I feel that their is several lies about many things. Never hung over either cause was still carried over a day past that one night. Several people were shocked it was my first time.

One thing. I wasnt on an empty stomach and drank water as well. Two whole schnapps bottles, whiskey bottle and one I keep forgetting name of. Its an odd one. 100 proof in it. Yes. Bottles. Mostly all my own. The others kept drinking only disgusting beers.

Did it only that one time too.

It does sound unbelievable. I also seemed to have quite the restraint. A gal was checking how submissive I was. I was ‘mostly’ sub except at one point even the inhibition wouldnt go further. Didnt want any further than I did on purpose.

I dont drink otherwise and tend avoid it within games too. Few times I didnt and didnt mind.

Forgot to mention i was far more mellow, relaxed and even quieter than normal.

Eh, alcohol affects different people differently. There are “Loves all world, calls exes at 3am to tell I love you still” types, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde types, ones who start understanding foreign languages, what have you. That said, the chapter better has something else than brandy for MC to practice alcoholism. Brandy is uncool. :face_with_monocle:

Hm, responses affected by previous variables… Are we going to blurt out romance thoughts if we are drunk and the cameras are running? Can I make it about Seven?

my main mc is not one to drink, but the idea of blurting out stuff 'cause you’re tipsy is kinda fun… especially if it tracks stats… maybe a drink or two won’t hurt rubs evil hands together (ignore how this could also backfire, if you say the wrong thing and someone happens to overhear sdfksk)

My wrong thing is blurting I want dominated by Oriana as the worst thing Ill say publicly. As I dont try to instigate issues. Keep trying to amend with professionalism. Im boring.

Amy shared she’s started playtesting chapter 4 so thats neat.

oh and this.

Im laughing at the idea of a Seven with Blake personality and crying at the idea of a completely asshole unapproachable mean celeb G. :sob:

Also Id be totally down for a camera crew RO.

I wanted to ask is Cora also an RO for MC?

You mean Cory? I think she’s meant as competition for Orion/a chasers if you choose to play that way. I think if she were an RO, even as a fling, we’d have had some indication from Amy by now. Of course I could be wrong, but she’s also one of the producers on the show, and I think gaining her favour is more about having some degree of control over how the show eventually presents you and less about having one more potential fling.

Yes! Sorry, I did meant Cory, yes. I was just wondering if she was meant to be an RO or a fling or something because i perceived some of MC’s interaction with Cory like that. Tbh, I wouldn’t be against it lol.
