Greeting and salutations,

My name is Lyserg Diethel and I have just arrived in this world. I was wondering if any of you would be so kind as to share the year it was in the world you came from? It seems that I've found myself roughly twenty years into the future and I'm curious to know if that's true for anyone else.

Additionally, if any of you have information about the outcome of a global tournament which took place on January 2000? The world history here doesn't align with what I know to be true back home and I need to know who came out the victor.

Thank you.

world tournament of what

[oxyacid]

Ahh... If I need to elaborate further it's probably not something you'd know about. Don't worry.

[ there's really no good way to say "people fighting to death over who becomes the new god of the world" so let's just. not. ]

I'm from 2006, but I take it you don't mean the Olympics.

[Those definitely weren't in January, and also you're making this sound sort of ominous.]

[oxyacid]

Unfortunately not.
I could elaborate further, but if you're from 2006 and don't know what I'm talking about then either everything worked out as hoped or you're not from my world.

[doctopoda]

Entirely possible. Some worlds have a lot of representatives here, but mine has never been one of them.

Have you heard of Spider-Man before?

[oxyacid]

I can't say that I have.

[slowmotionbuscrash]

Did you... land in another universe and immediately go "hey I know how I can make myself a million dollars gambling when I get back home?" I don't know if I should respect the hustle or not.

[oxyacid]

[ well, he can't help but laugh at that absurd little notion. ]

Well... I suppose you could say it's something like that. [ he sure as hell wouldn't be betting on anyone save the big bad to win this thing. ] Money isn't really my goal, but the information is invaluable all the same.

[tiaraaction]

Ah - I came from 1996. The year 2000 sounds so far in the future, but so does the year here.

[age crisis make up.]

Were you competing in the world tournament?

[slowmotionbuscrash]

So what's the goal, if not money?

[ Since you brought it up, spill. This vagueness is irritating. ]

[doctopoda]

There you go - separate worlds, then.
Sorry not to be of more help.

[skagzz]

Hannibal Lecter won the tournament for bestest serial killers AND hell's kitchen that year, boo.

What a horrific and tragic shame you missed it. Truly a golden age of human history, et cetera, lorem dolor, adieu.

[oxyacid]

That's alright. I suspect most people from my own world wouldn't know the answer anyway.
I'd love to hear more about your world though. What exactly is a Spider-Man?

[oxyacid]

It sounds a little dramatic, but the fate of the world hinges on who emerges as the victor.

And while knowing most likely won't change anything but I'd like to know if my friends survived it.

[oxyacid]

Fascinating...

[ its fine lyserg was basically born a 40 year old man ]

I was, yes. Was anything of note occurring at the time you were pulled from?

[oxyacid]

That really is a shame not to have seen it myself, but I can't say say I'm dying to taste his cuisine.

[skagzz]

Well if you was d e a d you'd be IN the cuisine.

[oxyacid]

Oh no. I'm terribly gamey. I wouldn't be fit to be served in a reputable restaurant.

[skagzz]

Boo, you from one of those worlds where they kill you and eat you and make you alive again?

Is there, like, a food vlogger who reviews what you taste like.

That should be a GOD DAMN SERVICE.

I obviously taste like chocolate chip cookies.

[tiaraaction]

Ah - [an awkward laugh - ] I guess you could say that! I don’t think you’d believe me if I told you, though.

[oxyacid]

I like to think I have an open mind.

[oxyacid]

Nothing that grim, I assure you.

[ what's a vlogger ]

Where did you pick that flavor up from?

[skagzz]

One does not question the essence of someone's SOUL how rude!

[ Ugh not that grim? How disappointing. ]

[oxyacid]

[ what a weird person. he can't help but laugh. ]

Sorry! I didn't realize it was connected to your soul. You're right, I shouldn't have questioned the authority you have on your own taste.

[tiaraaction]

Ah, well you see - there’s, uhm. Hm. Well - there’s a force of not evil, but close? It’s called Chaos - I was fighting it, I guess in space.

[it’s going to be a bad explanation. ] Well, specifically where all things begin and end. The Galaxy Cauldron. I think I died there, to defeat it - but it let me make a wish, to be reincarnate with my friends, back to our lives. I think I was almost there, until I was here.

[she smiles, a little sadly.] I was really looking forward to seeing mama and papa again. Even my annoying little brother.
