FATAL EXCEPTION ERROR: SOMETHING WENT WRONG

The contest is winding down and the scores are being tallied, but Dr. Ranui’s Beatbot just keeps right on playing music, sparking or glitching a little all the while. It’s weird, the song the little droid is playing: kind of an earworm — it definitely slaps — and the more its sick beats go on, the harder they are to ignore and the louder they seem. It's difficult not to tap a foot along to the beat. Maybe wiggle a shoulder or hip.

And once that hip has been wiggled, it's hard to stop. Dr. Ranui is the first to succumb to the uncontrollable urge to bust a move, and in short order after that, Beatbot’s got everyone in attendance involuntarily cutting a rug. The musical robot soon gets its clamps on Dr. Ranui’s Megasonorofier — a magically amplified megaphone of his own invention — and starts blaring its beats across campus. Now no one is safe!

  • For the next four hours (from 3PM to 7PM, game time) Peckenpaugh is plagued by the urge to dance!

  • [Up to two students per player] may succumb to this musical curse. Victims may be infected by simply hearing the song. There is a chance to resist, but you must have great willpower! That said, this event is 100% opt-in. You are welcome to say your characters escaped unscathed.

  • As long as you hear the music (and there are few places on campus where you can’t by the time Beatbot has hit the megasonorofier), you’re susceptible to the urge to dance.

  • Even if you don’t know how to dance, you can’t help but move your body. Dance, my children! Dance badly!
