1Mario Kart Complete: The Lost Levels
On 2023-11-25 at 15:00:24
I'm now starting to realize why some of these tracks never made it. I'm currently working on Thwomp Forest from MKC Advance, and the map looks like this.

Not only is it incredibly boring, but I learned that even with my improved hazard and checkpoint placements, the CPUs are broken. I want to keep the original map just to stay faithful to the original, but if anyone would like to help me patch whatever bugs the track has, and maybe add some decor to make it look better, hit me up and I'll send you a collab link. The other three tracks in the Flower Cup are doing great btw, and the Mushroom Cup is out now.

I brought this up on the MKPC News topic, but decided to make my own page for it for more details.
Over the past couple years, I have cancelled many a Mario Kart Complete game. Some tracks were released in a demo cup, on their own, or in a TBC. Others have only existed in my computer's files. But soon, 12 cancelled MKC tracks are about to have a multicup to call their own, alongside 4 brand new courses. Here's a rundown of these cancelled games and tracks.
Mario Kart Complete Advance
After the release of the downright awful Mario Kart Complete Wii, back when I counted anything I made as passable, I planned a sequel based on the GBA, titled Mario Kart Complete Advanced. It didn't last long, as I only had a cup's worth of maps, and I didn't even announce it to the public. One of the tracks, Haunted Labyrinth, was brought back for New Mario Kart Complete shortly after.
Returning Tracks: Thwomp Forest (started but deleted)
New Mario Kart Complete: Super Dash
For anyone who actually plays my multicups, you'll know that this game actually was released. However, there were quite a few tracks that never made it into the final game.
Returning Tracks: Chaos Circuit (started but deleted), Risky Lake (not started), and Haunted Pier (not started)
New Mario Kart Complete: Mushroom World
This was going to be the successor to Mario Kart Complete: Super Dash, and would've featured tracks that directly referenced iconic Super Mario levels, or common themes. A demo cup was released, but due to being developed alongside Mario Kart Arcade GP PC, I needed to pick one to prioritize, and Mushroom World was cancelled. Arcade GP PC also became my highest-rated creation.
Returning Tracks: 8-Bit Speedway, (published for TBC, and later a demo) Castle Grounds, (published on its own) Delfino Plaza, (published on its own) DK Jungle, (started but not published) Mario Speedway, (started but not published) and Peach's Secret Slide (published on its own)
Mario Kart Complete: Revival
This would've been the dormant series' big return, featuring 16 new tracks, and 16 from the MysteryMan archive. I honestly have no reason why I cancelled this. Maybe I just got bored, or got another idea.
Returning Tracks: Koopa Beach (started but deleted) and Boshi Stadium (published in demo cup)
I can't wait to share more about this project, and I'm also hoping I finish it for once.

3Just Another TBC
On 2023-11-22 at 13:46:01
The results are in. In fourth place is...
@PokemonSwordAndShieldAreGoated with Yoshi but spoopy now
It heavily lacked the Yoshi theming, it looks messy, and I often didn't know which path to take.
In third place is...
@ChocoM1lk with DK Plains
I liked the map, the music, and the elements of 3DS DK Jungle, but it was very short, and lacked decor.
It's now down to @SuperMega7 with Count Hammer Bro's Manor, and @Daisember with Toad's Rainbow. The winner of Just Another TCB is...
COUNT HAMMER BRO'S MANOR!
Everything about the track was amazing, from the theming, the layout, the decor, the music, it was a 5 star track in my eyes. Congratulations!
Toad's Rainbow was also incredible, and it was really hard to choose. I guess it could've benefitted from just a little more decor, but you still did an excellent job.
Thank you to everyone who competed.

Are we allowed to add something extra like example, "King Boo's Haunted" that wouldn't make sense. Is it okay if we add something to make it "King Boo's Haunted Mansion
Remember, it doesn't have to be the exact name, just the theme.
On 2023-11-15 at 15:43:30
"Haunted Yoshi" yeah this is going to go real well
I mean, Arcade GP 2's Yoshi Park 2 tried, but it's more cartoony than actually haunted.

Since I stepped away from fanfics, I decided to explore more parts of the community. I used to hold track building contests a lot, so I'm gonna hold another one. The theme of your track depends on the chart below.

This doesn't have to be the name of your track, just the theme. For example, I would have to make a Koopa-themed (I swear I didn't do that on purpose) plains track, but I wouldn't have to call it Koopa Plains. (I would've done nicknames instead of irl names, but I worried people would change their nicknames to get a better character.)
You have until November 22nd to build your track. Work hard, play hard, have fun, and may the best track win.
Edit: I forgot to mention that this is complete mode only.

I've been wanting this feature ever since I started making tracks. That would probably cut the time spent in half.

1What is the hardest part when creating a complete circuit in MKPC?
On 2023-11-17 at 14:02:16
Placing holes in the right places, and making sure the respawns don't make the player skip a checkpoint. And also placing enough decor on the track to make it look good. I still haven't mastered that last one yet.

I'll Probably be Stepping Back for a While
On 2023-11-13 at 13:46:48
Those who know me probably know me for my Toad-al Drama series, or other reality TV fanfics I've written that have either failed, or haven't even started yet. I've thought about it, and maybe this isn't the right time to be doing this. Being a high school student, I don't have a lot of time to write, and when I do have time, I'm still pretty burnt out. I have a ton of ideas in my head, but I just don't have the time to write them. Not to mention how... underwhelming they've been lately. (Just look at how much I hyped up Toad-al Drama Inferno, only for it to go downhill after a few episodes) So I'm either gonna wait until the summer for my next project, or until I graduate. The latter will especially be helpful if I take a gap year between high school and college. Don't get this confused with me leaving the site altogether. I still love the good parts of the community, and I'll probably explore some of the amazing multicups some of you have put together. But as far as fanfics go, I should probably take a break. But first, I wanna ask those with more life experience: Do I have more time as a high school student that I'm putting to waste, or would I have more time after I graduate and potentially enter college?

1Toad-al Drama Inferno
On 2023-11-09 at 18:45:32
I've decided to officially cancel it. It was a really hard choice, but I felt there just wasn't much I could do. For continuity, I'm just gonna say the rest of the season was filmed, but Lakitu deemed the final stretch too boring to be aired. The finalists would've been Flambo and Emma, though I haven't figured out who would've won. As excited as I was for Toad-al Drama Superstars, I think I'm gonna take a break from reality TV fanfics, especially since Superstars was planned to have 22 episodes, and I couldn't even finish 10. But I still like to imagine the series going on.

If you've noticed my lack of activity on this topic, it's because I'm probably gonna cancel it. These past few episodes, I've slowly been sucking the personalities out of the contestants to the point where they're just a bunch of game bots. I can't find ways to naturally cause any more drama, or write purely character-based moments. Because of this corner I painted myself into, I don't think I'll continue this. I might publish episode 7, I might not, depends on how much I care. But I still haven't touched episode 8, and probably never will. This is a hard decision for me to make since there are only three more episodes I need to write before it's all over and I can finally move on, but my poor choices have pretty much sucked out any life this season had.
On 2023-10-21 at 16:53:14
I haven't touched episode 8 in maybe a month or two, so here's episode 6 before everyone forgets this thing exists.
•
Lakitu: The last episode of Toad-al Drama Inferno was pretty weird. Blake decided to secretly end things with Nick, only for it to not matter anyway. Danny also attempted to get his former friend back, only to realize Rocky’s a total jerk now for… Danny not trusting him? Like, dude, it’s Toad-al Drama. Nobody trusts anyone. I also managed to get my hosting job back through winning the most pathetic rap battle ever. During a very dangerous challenge, Flambo tried to wipe out everyone on the Mischievous Monty Moles, and Danny suffered major injuries because of it. He was medevac’d, and Rocky was voted out too for… some reason. The merge phase is upon us! Will any new alliances be formed? Can Flambo regain his popularity? And who will go further, Blake or Nick? Find out on Toad-al! Drama! Inferno!
Without Bowser being able to interfere, Lakitu finally had the confidence to make his first solo announcement to the contestants.
Lakitu: ATTENTION PRISONERS! FROM THIS POINT ON, THE WAR BETWEEN THE PESKY PIRANHA PLANTS AND THE MISCHIEVOUS MONTY MOLES IS OVER! EVERYONE IS MERGED NOW, AND NEW TWISTS ARE ABOUT TO POP UP! GOOD LUCK, AND MAY THE BEST PLAYER WIN!
Violet: Can the best player win when everyone is awake enough to stand up?
Unfortunately for the prisoners, it was 3am.
Blake (confessional): Now’s the time I can finally do it. Nick has proven to know a lot about the game, and the sooner I get rid of him, the sooner I get rid of both a threat, and a rival. The game has only begun.
That morning, while everyone was eating at the same table for the first time, Blake decided to use Flambo losing his popularity, the type of move that Nick told him not to make.
Blake: So, being responsible for a medical removal must be pretty hard.
Flambo: Yeah, it kind of is. I just wanted a clean fall, I wasn’t expecting a broken back. Did I take it too far?
Blake: Maybe, but it was probably just the game getting to you.
Flambo: Well now, nobody seems to like me anymore.
Blake: I know that feeling way to well. Back in Sunshine, I wasn’t that hated, but then when the whole Nick situation rolled around, I was public enemy number one. Say, both of us are traveling on very similar roads. You lost your ally in Rocky, while I lost mine in Nick. Perhaps we could both turn this game around. Our duos are gone, but a new duo could form if you want.
Flambo: You think I’m stupid?
Blake: Uh…
Flambo: I may be desperate for someone to work with, but I know you’re a snake, and the only snake here should be me.
Blake: You really consider yourself a snake?
Flambo: King Cobra, girl. And you, you’re just one of those adorable danger noodles popping up from a hole in the ground. You really think you’re tough, but you’re not.
Blake: Wow, I love the insults you’re throwing out, but confessing to others that you’re a villain is… well, I…
Flambo: Think you’re the best now?
Flambo walks away to try and make some other deals.
Flambo: Hey, Violet, what’s up?
Violet: Ah, great. Time to bring on the merge scrambling.
Flambo: I’m not scrambling. I’m confident that you-
Violet: Listen, I’ve already gotten deals from Brittany and Nick, and I don’t trust either of them.
Flambo: But you can trust me. I-
Violet: Pushed Danny to his demise.
Flambo: What? I thought you hated the other dude.
Violet: Why can’t people understand I don’t want him dead, I want him NOT dead?
Flambo: Why can’t people understand that I’m not as ruthless as I look, and I really need someone who can-
Violet: I had this same conversation with Blake a few days ago, and I said no. Go meet with someone from the other team if you wanna take advantage of the teams being merged.
Flambo (confessional): So Violet turned down offers from Brittany AND Nick? Wow, everyone’s really hustling this season. I can’t imagine what everyone else is up to.
Lakitu: ATTENTION PRISONERS! STAY RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE! I’M COMING OVER FOR YOUR NEXT CHALLENGE!
Blake: Finally, no more extra rooms made to show off Bowser’s wealth.
Lakitu enters the room with eight bingo cards in one hand, and the other rolling around cages and cages of enemies.
Lakitu: Welcome to your very first challenge as merged prisoners. From here on out, it’s an individual game, and I’ve got another twist up my sleeve that will be revealed after the challenge. Anyway, today’s challenge is a relaxing game of Bingo… NOT! Each of you will pick a 3x3 card with different combinations of six enemies that I have locked up in these cages. I’ll roll a dice with pictures of those enemies, and if you have the one it lands on, cross it off. If you “score” a bingo, those enemies will be sent to attack you. If your card is cleared, you’re out. Last one standing wins invincibility. Now everybody pick a card!
Each of the contestants slowly takes a card out of Lakitu’s hand.
Cato: Uh, sorry to be a bother, but, uhm… my card only has one thing on it. Do you have any spares?
Lakitu: You’re ruining the suspense, Cato!
Lakitu rolls the dice, which lands on a Boo.
Blake: I just got two bingos.
Emma: I got a whopping four.
Lakitu: Calm down guys, it’s not a competition. Oh wait, it is.
Lakitu unleashes hoards of Boos onto Blake and Emma. However, they didn’t deal any physical damage, and neither of them were all that scared.
Lakitu: Maybe this next roll will be worse.
Cato: Please not a Bob-Omb, please not a Bob-Omb.
Lakitu: Does anybody have a Bob-Omb?
Brittany: Bingo!
Cato: Oh God, bingo times 8!
Lakitu throws a Bob-Omb at Brittany, and then throws eight at Cato. Miraculously, both of them survive, although they smell like burnt chicken now.
Lakitu: And with that, Cato is out of the challenge… does anyone have a Cheep-Cheep?
Blake: Six bingos!
Violet: Three bingos.
Brittany: Bingo times four!
Eve: My entire card was just wiped out!
Lakitu: Ooh, we got a doozy.
Lakitu throws three Cheep-Cheeps at Violet, who gives no reaction. He then throws Blake, Brittany, and Eve into a whole tank of Cheep-Cheeps for getting eliminated.
Lakitu: Who’s got an Urchin?
Violet: Five bingos.
Brittany: Seven!
Lakitu: Seven Urchins or seven bingos?
Brittany: Seven bingos, can’t you do math?
Lakitu tosses Violet and Brittany into a tank of Urchins.
Lakitu: Anyone else?
Nick: Bingo! Only my first one.
Lakitu: Impressive. Doubt it’ll last long. It’s now down to Nick, who just got his first bingo, and Flambo, who hasn’t gotten any so far. Who will win? It all depends on who’s got a… Koopa Troopa!
Nick: You wiped out my card.
Lakitu: Oh man. You know what that means.
Lakitu unleashes a pack of Koopa Troopas to attack Nick, who flies back to his cell, wishing to be anywhere but there.
Lakitu: Flambo, if you have less than seven bingos, you win. If you have all eight in one go like poor Cato did, it will force a tie. Do you have anything?
Flambo: Only two bingos.
Lakitu: Congratulations, Flambo! You are safe from elimination tonight, and from the Koopa Troopas here.
Lakitu rallies up all the enemies and takes the underwater contestants out of the tanks.
Lakitu: Now I said earlier that there would be a huge twist. Well here it is. Everyone will vote for two different contestants. The two with the most votes will have to compete against a boss. The contestant who defeats the boss first stays in the game, while their opponent is out. Think long and hard about this. I’ll see ya tonight.
Later, everyone seemed to be gunning for each other.
Blake (confessional): Now that my verbal contract with Nick has expired, now’s the best time to get rid of him so I don’t have to worry about him later.
Nick (confessional): Blake stabbed me in the back last season, and seems to have ignored all my advice, so yeah. I want him gone.
Violet (confessional): Flambo is a snake, always has been a snake, always will be a snake, and I don’t know why anybody trusts him.
Flambo (confessional): Violet seems to be on to me, and I know that a solo player that confident in themselves can be just as if not more dangerous than a duo.
Knowing about all the drama between those four players, Eve uses it as an opportunity to fight back against the “forces of evil”.
Eve: Blake, Nick, Flambo, and maybe even Violet are some of the more villainous players this season, and all of them are voting for different people. If the four of us can unite and vote Blake and Nick into the boss fight, we’re guaranteed to be rid of one of the biggest strategic threats.
Cato: That’s a very odd way of saying, “Let’s form an alliance,” but if it works it works.
Emma: That sounds great.
Brittany: Yeah, we can do that.
Brittany (confessional): I can’t do that! Emma and Cato are driving me insane behind the scenes, and everyone knows the final challenge of a season is always physical. Crossover never happened. Sure, Flambo can kinda be a powerhouse, but I know that if I’m up against someone like Emma, I might as well just hand her the million. I know I said I wanted to play a great strategic game, but at this point, I’m just doing whatever I can to get by. It’s a huge risk, but I’ve gotta find a way to get the villains together to get Emma out.
Once the group split off, Brittany rallied up Blake, Nick, Flambo, and Violet to pitch a different idea.
Brittany: Based on previous drama, I can already tell that it’s going to be a 4-way tie between you two, while Eve, Cato, Emma, and I all vote together and send two of you into the boss fight.
Flambo: Who the hell just reveals their plans TO THEIR FRICKIN’ TARGETS?
Brittany: That’s not what I wanna do though. As long as my “alliance” is together, you four don’t stand a chance, but the longer Emma stays, the more she’s gonna dominate the competition. If the five of us all vote Emma, the physical threat, and Eve, weak as a butterfly, whose butt is gonna get kicked, we'll either be rid of the powerhouse, or Mrs. Kumbaya. And we have the majority.
Violet: What makes you think all of us are gonna be one big happy family?
Brittany: It’s us or them. Think about it. Would you rather have them pick you off one-by-one ‘cause you’re not unified, or would you rather have a chance at winning that final challenge?
The four took a minute to think about it, and they all reluctantly agreed with the plan. When night came, the Castle Ceremony was held.
Lakitu: Welcome to the Castle Ceremony. In a couple minutes, two prisoners will be put into a boss battle to decide who’s eliminated. The first statues go to Flambo… Cato… Violet… and… Eve.
Brittany: NO! You idiots were supposed to vote for Eve! What’s wrong with you?
Lakitu: Blake, Brittany, Nick, Emma, you are out bottom four. The final two statues were between two tied players. Blake, Nick… both of you are… safe from elimination.
Brittany: WHAT?
Lakitu: Sorry, you two. Looks like you’ll be facing off against Petey Piranha tonight. The first to defeat him stays, while the other one is out of the game for good. And just so you know, every future episode this season will be like this.
Lakitu takes the nominees to a grassy field where a giant mutant Piranha Plant stand before them.
Lakitu: Here’s how the challenge will work. Each player has a supply of Bob-Ombs that they can throw at Petey Piranha here. If you land a hit, you score a point. However, at certain points in the battle, Petey Piranha will open his mouth and swallow any Bob-Ombs that land in it. He will then spit the Bob-Ombs back out towards whoever threw them, taking away their hit point. In the end, the player who scores the most points stays in the game, while the loser goes home.
Emma: Didn’t you say earlier that whoever defeated the boss first would win?
Lakitu: I decided that someone could do nothing until Petey was weak and weary, and just stomp in and win the whole thing, and if there’s one thing this already-horrible season doesn’t need, it’s Birdo levels of exploitation. Now start!
Expecting an epic battle between the nominees and Petey Piranha, Lakitu is very disappointed to just see two people throwing bombs, and the big guy not doing anything.
Lakitu: I’m not normally one to cancel challenges as soon as they start, but this isn’t exactly the awesome TV moment the network wanted. Sorry, Petey.
Petey hangs his head down and walks home.
Lakitu: I’m gonna hold a revote. Everyone will only vote for one player now.
Cato: Brittany.
Emma: Yep, I can roll with that.
Lakitu: I wasn’t gonna do it out loud, but is everyone fine with sending Brittany home?
Brittany: Please don’t.
Lakitu: Well, that settles it. Time to take the Blast of Shame, Brittany.
Brittany steps into the cannon and blasts away to somewhere unknown.
Lakitu: That wasn’t the end we wanted, but it was still a really fun episode. Who will be voted out next? Will the two alliances crumble? And did Brittany’s flip go down in Toad-al Drama history? Find out on the next episode of Toad-al! Drama! Inferno!

Blake: Maybe, but it was probably just the game getting to you.
Flambo: Well now, nobody seems to like me anymore.
Blake: I know that feeling way to well. Back in Sunshine, I wasn’t that hated, but then when the whole Nick situation rolled around, I was public enemy number one. Say, both of us are traveling on very similar roads. You lost your ally in Rocky, while I lost mine in Nick. Perhaps we could both turn this game around. Our duos are gone, but a new duo could form if you want.
Flambo: You think I’m stupid?
Blake: Uh…
Flambo: I may be desperate for someone to work with, but I know you’re a snake, and the only snake here should be me.
Blake: You really consider yourself a snake?
Flambo: King Cobra, girl. And you, you’re just one of those adorable danger noodles popping up from a hole in the ground. You really think you’re tough, but you’re not.
Blake: Wow, I love the insults you’re throwing out, but confessing to others that you’re a villain is… well, I…
Flambo: Think you’re the best now?
Flambo walks away to try and make some other deals.
Flambo: Hey, Violet, what’s up?
Violet: Ah, great. Time to bring on the merge scrambling.
Flambo: I’m not scrambling. I’m confident that you-
Violet: Listen, I’ve already gotten deals from Brittany and Nick, and I don’t trust either of them.
Flambo: But you can trust me. I-
Violet: Pushed Danny to his demise.
Flambo: What? I thought you hated the other dude.
Violet: Why can’t people understand I don’t want him dead, I want him NOT dead?
Flambo: Why can’t people understand that I’m not as ruthless as I look, and I really need someone who can-
Violet: I had this same conversation with Blake a few days ago, and I said no. Go meet with someone from the other team if you wanna take advantage of the teams being merged.
Flambo (confessional): So Violet turned down offers from Brittany AND Nick? Wow, everyone’s really hustling this season. I can’t imagine what everyone else is up to.
Lakitu: ATTENTION PRISONERS! STAY RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE! I’M COMING OVER FOR YOUR NEXT CHALLENGE!
Blake: Finally, no more extra rooms made to show off Bowser’s wealth.
Lakitu enters the room with eight bingo cards in one hand, and the other rolling around cages and cages of enemies.
Lakitu: Welcome to your very first challenge as merged prisoners. From here on out, it’s an individual game, and I’ve got another twist up my sleeve that will be revealed after the challenge. Anyway, today’s challenge is a relaxing game of Bingo… NOT! Each of you will pick a 3x3 card with different combinations of six enemies that I have locked up in these cages. I’ll roll a dice with pictures of those enemies, and if you have the one it lands on, cross it off. If you “score” a bingo, those enemies will be sent to attack you. If your card is cleared, you’re out. Last one standing wins invincibility. Now everybody pick a card!
Each of the contestants slowly takes a card out of Lakitu’s hand.
Cato: Uh, sorry to be a bother, but, uhm… my card only has one thing on it. Do you have any spares?
Lakitu: You’re ruining the suspense, Cato!
Lakitu rolls the dice, which lands on a Boo.
Blake: I just got two bingos.
Emma: I got a whopping four.
Lakitu: Calm down guys, it’s not a competition. Oh wait, it is.
Lakitu unleashes hoards of Boos onto Blake and Emma. However, they didn’t deal any physical damage, and neither of them were all that scared.
Lakitu: Maybe this next roll will be worse.
Cato: Please not a Bob-Omb, please not a Bob-Omb.
Lakitu: Does anybody have a Bob-Omb?
Brittany: Bingo!
Cato: Oh God, bingo times 8!
Lakitu throws a Bob-Omb at Brittany, and then throws eight at Cato. Miraculously, both of them survive, although they smell like burnt chicken now.
Lakitu: And with that, Cato is out of the challenge… does anyone have a Cheep-Cheep?
Blake: Six bingos!
Violet: Three bingos.
Brittany: Bingo times four!
Eve: My entire card was just wiped out!
Lakitu: Ooh, we got a doozy.
Lakitu throws three Cheep-Cheeps at Violet, who gives no reaction. He then throws Blake, Brittany, and Eve into a whole tank of Cheep-Cheeps for getting eliminated.
Lakitu: Who’s got an Urchin?
Violet: Five bingos.
Brittany: Seven!
Lakitu: Seven Urchins or seven bingos?
Brittany: Seven bingos, can’t you do math?
Lakitu tosses Violet and Brittany into a tank of Urchins.
Lakitu: Anyone else?
Nick: Bingo! Only my first one.
Lakitu: Impressive. Doubt it’ll last long. It’s now down to Nick, who just got his first bingo, and Flambo, who hasn’t gotten any so far. Who will win? It all depends on who’s got a… Koopa Troopa!
Nick: You wiped out my card.
Lakitu: Oh man. You know what that means.
Lakitu unleashes a pack of Koopa Troopas to attack Nick, who flies back to his cell, wishing to be anywhere but there.
Lakitu: Flambo, if you have less than seven bingos, you win. If you have all eight in one go like poor Cato did, it will force a tie. Do you have anything?
Flambo: Only two bingos.
Lakitu: Congratulations, Flambo! You are safe from elimination tonight, and from the Koopa Troopas here.
Lakitu rallies up all the enemies and takes the underwater contestants out of the tanks.
Lakitu: Now I said earlier that there would be a huge twist. Well here it is. Everyone will vote for two different contestants. The two with the most votes will have to compete against a boss. The contestant who defeats the boss first stays in the game, while their opponent is out. Think long and hard about this. I’ll see ya tonight.
Later, everyone seemed to be gunning for each other.
Blake (confessional): Now that my verbal contract with Nick has expired, now’s the best time to get rid of him so I don’t have to worry about him later.
Nick (confessional): Blake stabbed me in the back last season, and seems to have ignored all my advice, so yeah. I want him gone.
Violet (confessional): Flambo is a snake, always has been a snake, always will be a snake, and I don’t know why anybody trusts him.
Flambo (confessional): Violet seems to be on to me, and I know that a solo player that confident in themselves can be just as if not more dangerous than a duo.
Knowing about all the drama between those four players, Eve uses it as an opportunity to fight back against the “forces of evil”.
Eve: Blake, Nick, Flambo, and maybe even Violet are some of the more villainous players this season, and all of them are voting for different people. If the four of us can unite and vote Blake and Nick into the boss fight, we’re guaranteed to be rid of one of the biggest strategic threats.
Cato: That’s a very odd way of saying, “Let’s form an alliance,” but if it works it works.
Emma: That sounds great.
Brittany: Yeah, we can do that.
Brittany (confessional): I can’t do that! Emma and Cato are driving me insane behind the scenes, and everyone knows the final challenge of a season is always physical. Crossover never happened. Sure, Flambo can kinda be a powerhouse, but I know that if I’m up against someone like Emma, I might as well just hand her the million. I know I said I wanted to play a great strategic game, but at this point, I’m just doing whatever I can to get by. It’s a huge risk, but I’ve gotta find a way to get the villains together to get Emma out.
Once the group split off, Brittany rallied up Blake, Nick, Flambo, and Violet to pitch a different idea.
Brittany: Based on previous drama, I can already tell that it’s going to be a 4-way tie between you two, while Eve, Cato, Emma, and I all vote together and send two of you into the boss fight.
Flambo: Who the hell just reveals their plans TO THEIR FRICKIN’ TARGETS?
Brittany: That’s not what I wanna do though. As long as my “alliance” is together, you four don’t stand a chance, but the longer Emma stays, the more she’s gonna dominate the competition. If the five of us all vote Emma, the physical threat, and Eve, weak as a butterfly, whose butt is gonna get kicked, we'll either be rid of the powerhouse, or Mrs. Kumbaya. And we have the majority.
Violet: What makes you think all of us are gonna be one big happy family?
Brittany: It’s us or them. Think about it. Would you rather have them pick you off one-by-one ‘cause you’re not unified, or would you rather have a chance at winning that final challenge?
The four took a minute to think about it, and they all reluctantly agreed with the plan. When night came, the Castle Ceremony was held.
Lakitu: Welcome to the Castle Ceremony. In a couple minutes, two prisoners will be put into a boss battle to decide who’s eliminated. The first statues go to Flambo… Cato… Violet… and… Eve.
Brittany: NO! You idiots were supposed to vote for Eve! What’s wrong with you?
Lakitu: Blake, Brittany, Nick, Emma, you are out bottom four. The final two statues were between two tied players. Blake, Nick… both of you are… safe from elimination.
Brittany: WHAT?
Lakitu: Sorry, you two. Looks like you’ll be facing off against Petey Piranha tonight. The first to defeat him stays, while the other one is out of the game for good. And just so you know, every future episode this season will be like this.
Lakitu takes the nominees to a grassy field where a giant mutant Piranha Plant stand before them.
Lakitu: Here’s how the challenge will work. Each player has a supply of Bob-Ombs that they can throw at Petey Piranha here. If you land a hit, you score a point. However, at certain points in the battle, Petey Piranha will open his mouth and swallow any Bob-Ombs that land in it. He will then spit the Bob-Ombs back out towards whoever threw them, taking away their hit point. In the end, the player who scores the most points stays in the game, while the loser goes home.
Emma: Didn’t you say earlier that whoever defeated the boss first would win?
Lakitu: I decided that someone could do nothing until Petey was weak and weary, and just stomp in and win the whole thing, and if there’s one thing this already-horrible season doesn’t need, it’s Birdo levels of exploitation. Now start!
Expecting an epic battle between the nominees and Petey Piranha, Lakitu is very disappointed to just see two people throwing bombs, and the big guy not doing anything.
Lakitu: I’m not normally one to cancel challenges as soon as they start, but this isn’t exactly the awesome TV moment the network wanted. Sorry, Petey.
Petey hangs his head down and walks home.
Lakitu: I’m gonna hold a revote. Everyone will only vote for one player now.
Cato: Brittany.
Emma: Yep, I can roll with that.
Lakitu: I wasn’t gonna do it out loud, but is everyone fine with sending Brittany home?
Brittany: Please don’t.
Lakitu: Well, that settles it. Time to take the Blast of Shame, Brittany.
Brittany steps into the cannon and blasts away to somewhere unknown.
Lakitu: That wasn’t the end we wanted, but it was still a really fun episode. Who will be voted out next? Will the two alliances crumble? And did Brittany’s flip go down in Toad-al Drama history? Find out on the next episode of Toad-al! Drama! Inferno!

Been almost 3 weeks, but here's Episode 5: Going Down in Flambo
•
Bowser: Last time on Toad-al Drama Inferno; Brittany successfully convinced Cato to be her new trainer, who then taught her that she needed to shut up if she wanted a chance at winning. After an order from the most awesome king in the world, Flambo decided to form an alliance with Danny and Rocky. When Danny hesitated, Rocky decided that their pointless friendship was over. During the challenge, I banished Lakitu from the kingdom, making sure he would never host the show again as long as it took place here. Shelly got tossed around, and begged her team to vote her out, which they did. How will the players perform in their final team challenge? Find out on Toad-al! Drama! Inferno!
The next morning, once everyone was up, Blake needed another tip from Nick.
Blake: Our team’s been winning a lot of challenges.
Nick: You mean 2 out of 3? That’s a high percentage, but not a lot.
Blake: The point is, the only members we’ve lost were either due to medevacs or easy weak links.
Nick: Your point being?
Blake: The merge is coming up, and we need to get rid of the big threats before the final stretch.
Nick: You’re not saying we throw the challenge, are you?
Blake: Well, yeah, there are people I don’t trust, and people who don’t trust me.
Nick: Right now, the only person we have to worry about is Emma, and she’s a Mole problem. Everyone else is either too quiet or too stupid.
Blake: But you’re always supposed to be weary of the quiet ones, especially Eve, who told me straight-up she didn’t like me, and has done Jack $#!t since, and Flambo, who was aligned with Min, one of my biggest enemies last season.
Nick: You’re getting too paranoid. If you make them a bigger problem than they actually are… how do I explain this?
Blake: They’ll become a problem if I make them a problem?
Nick: Yeah. Nobody can trust a paranoid wreck, and if anyone finds out, they’ll attack your weak point for massive damage. Just calm down. It will all be fine.
Blake (confessional): I’m seriously considering breaking up the alliance. There’s no point in trying to work with someone who knows the game better than I do. I think it’s time for another blindside.
Meanwhile, Lakitu is in his cloud mansion reminiscing on all the good, bad, and ugly times he had with contestants in the past.
Lakitu: I never knew just how much I would love Yoshi always being smart with me, or watching Wendy rise to power when I said she had no chance. Or verbally abusing Amy Rose for no reason whatsoever. I really miss those days. Now Bowser’s doing who-knows-what to those poor teens. I loved watching them get hurt, but not on that level. I hope Min’s doing okay.
While binging all the seasons to look back at the good old days, he notices something hanging up on his mantel, a copy of his hosting contract. Curious to see if there was anything in there that could bring him back to the show, he looks through and finds the best words he’s ever read.
Lakitu: “Lakitu must always be on hosting duty, whether on site or virtually. If anyone tries to steal his role, Lakitu has the right to ban him from the show.” YES! YES! I’M BACK! All I have to do is invite Bowser to a Zoom meeting to declare him banned from Toad-al Drama, and I’m set. This is the best! Day! Ever!
Back at the dungeon, Danny is trying to make up with Rocky.
Danny: This isn’t like you, Rocky. You’ve never been the type of person to ditch a friend because they didn’t like another “friend.”
Rocky: Why did you put friend in quotes?
Danny: ‘Cause I’ve been a part of an alliance with a member of the other team who I knew nothing about, and it ended up horribly. I don’t want the same to happen to you. I want us both to go to the merge together, and I can’t trust Flambo right now.
Rocky: Dude, just because you don’t trust him doesn’t mean you can force me not to trust him, man.
Danny: I’m not forcing you. If you wanna side with him and get voted out, go for it, but I just want what’s best for you.
Rocky: Nah, nah, you want what’s best for you.
Rocky floats away to socialize with his new best friend.
Danny (confessional): I don’t know what’s gotten into Rocky. He went from a lovable doofus to… I can’t find the term, but it’s a full 180. All I want is to get him back, but I know I don’t stand a chance.
Bowser: ATTENTION PRISONERS! MEET ME ONTOP OF THE TWIN TOWERS FOR YOUR NEXT CHALLENGE!
Nick: Gee, I know that joke won’t offend anyone.
The prisoners arrive at the top of two 80-story towers in the middle of a lava lake connected by a wooden bridge.
Blake: We’re not doing that high-dive challenge from the first season, are we? ‘Cause that’s where I draw the line.
Bowser: Great idea, but no. Instead, I’ll be the one taking the plunges. Each team is standing on one of these towers, but can move around as they please. At random intervals, I will fall from the sky and ground pound a tower. If anyone is blown off the tower, they are eliminated. The twist in this challenge is that after the final smash, only the surviving individuals will be safe, not an entire team. Any questions?
A screen lowers, attached from a helicopter flying above the castle.
Lakitu: I do! Have you payed no attention to my pre-existing hosting contract of the last four seasons? The one that only expires when I choose to leave?
Bowser: Please explain.
Lakitu proceeded to tell Bowser about the quote from his contract, and how Bowser can’t take his role as host.
Bowser: Well I’m here on location, and you’re not.
Lakitu: I came here virtually, ‘cause that’s still allowed.
Bowser: You know what?
Lakitu: You’re gonna give me my damn job back?
Bowser: I’m inviting you back to the Koopa Kingdom!
Lakitu: YES!
Bowser: For a fight to the death!
Lakitu: NO!
Bowser: I have a wrestling ring set up that the two of us will fight in. The first person to surrender, or die if he’s stupid enough, must give up their role as Toad-al Drama host.
Lakitu: I’ll see you there.
Eve: WAIT!
Everyone looks in amazement when they hear the invisible one finally speak up about something.
Eve: Violence isn’t always the answer. You can’t settle a legal dispute with a death match. There’s gotta be a way to settle this peacefully.
Bowser: What, do you expect us to just talk it out like a pair of old chums?
Eve: That’s what I’d suggest, yes.
Lakitu: I have a different idea.
Eve: Whatever it is, I highly doubt it will do anything but raise tension.
Lakitu: A rap battle. Last to surrender is the host for the rest of the season.
Eve: I guess that works too.
Bowser: It is on!
Blake: Rules of the rap battle. If you openly surrender, leave the arena, or say something that’s not supposed to be in your rap, you’re out.
Blakes grabs a coin and flips it on the ground.
Blake: Lakitu, you go first.
Lakitu: Oh gosh…
It's Lakitu, ready to make history,
In this rap battle that's truly destiny
I'm the ref, so be weary,
You better behave, or there'll be more than just rain in your face
So Bowser, listen up, and hear me out
You ain't winning this battle, don't even doubt
But hey, I'm just the ref, I'm not the boss
Now let's start this thing and bring in the sauce!
Bowser: Oh, this is gonna be easy.
I am Bowser, the king of the Koopas,
I'm going to win this battle, it's going to be dope
I'm a fire-breathing turtle, I’m the greatest of them all
You’re just a cloud, you ain't going to win at all
I'm going to capture the princess, she's mine for the taking,
You can stop me all you want, but she ain-
Larry: DAD! THE SHOWER HEAD FELL OFF AND THE WATER’S OUT OF CONTROL!
Bowser: CAN’T YOU HEAR I’M BUSY?
Realizing what had just happened, Bowser storms off in fury.
Bowser: This is why I didn’t wanna host a show in my backyard while raising seven kids.
Blake: Okay, the stakes weren’t nearly as high as we all wanted them to be.
Eve: But at least they don’t have to fight anymore.
Lakitu: And I’m back as host, baby! Now who’s ready to get on with the challenge?
Nick: But Bowser’s not here to-
Lakitu: I KNOW WHAT’S GOIN’ ON! God, I love being able to do that again. There are going to be some rule changes. The twist Bowser introduced might as well make this an individual challenge, so the team with the most members still standing will win instead. I’ve also installed some hail stones inside my cloud to rain upon the towers. I know my contract with Bowser said he’d have to play a major role in every challenge, but I’ve torn it up and as far as I care, he’s no longer a part of the season. Now get on a tower and let’s do this!
At first, each team is standing on their own tower. The hale starts falling, and everyone tries to run away while still staying on their tower. However, as the challenge progresses, the hale gets bigger, and it gets to the point where the balls are almost as big as the contestants themselves. everyone evacuates to the bridge, and Flambo gets an idea.
Flambo: Bowser didn’t say how the players were supposed to fall off to get eliminated.
Blake: And?
Flambo: If I can push off all the Monty Moles, then we can win.
Eve: Flambo, there’s straight lava below us. You’re going to kill them.
Blake: I hate to agree with her, but she’s right.
Flambo: I will do whatever it takes to secure a win. Whatever. It. Takes.
Flambo (confessional): Bowser himself said this would mark a new era of Toad-al Drama where the game is more dangerous, and contestants are encouraged to play much dirtier. While I don’t wanna hurt anyone, I’d much rather do that than hurt myself. It’s survival of the fittest. Sorry, not sorry.
Soon, Flambo, starts charging towards everyone on the enemy team while avoiding all the hale. Rocky avoids him with his floating abilities, while Emma, Brittany, and Cato somehow land on rocky terrain just inches away from the lava. Danny, however isn’t so lucky. Flambo corners the blue Rex and put his hands on Danny’s, and same way Blake did last season, and pushes him off the tower onto the rocks below.
Rocky: NO!!! DANNY!!!
As soon as he hits the rocks, Danny passes out after breaking both his spine and his left arm.
Lakitu: Oh shoot. I wasn’t expecting that to happen.
Soon, Danny wakes up, and for the first time, feels pain in a negative light.
Danny (confessional): With all the crazy stupid stunts I’ve performed in the past… I knew what I was getting into. I knew that I could get hurt, and I loved it because of the danger. I loved the danger because I saw it coming. But this… it was just out of the blue. I had no time to prepare. And once I woke up, it felt awful. I knew I never should’ve trusted Flambo, and this is exactly why.
Lakitu: You feelin’ okay, dude?
Nick: He has multiple broken bones, how do you think he feels?
Lakitu: Nobody asked you, Nick.
Danny: Not great. I’m sure I can recover soon, but-
Lakitu: Not quick enough to continue playing the game?
Danny: Yeah.
Lakitu: I guess we should take you out then.
Lakitu calls an ambulance to take Danny to the hospital.
Rocky: I… I never got to apologize.
Rocky (confessional): I never should’ve let Flambo’s alliance come between us on such a personal level. I wish I never trusted him, but most of all, I wish I trusted Danny, instead. But he’s never gonna hear that, and it’s all my fault.
While waiting, Lakitu announces the current state of the challenge.
Lakitu: I’ve decided I’ve had enough of this challenge, but there will still be a Castle Ceremony tonight. Pesky Piranha Plants, since you had more surviving members, you win invincibility, and temporary freedom. Mischievous Monty Moles, you’re going to complete your two-for-one deal later tonight. I’ll see you then.
That night, the losers showed up at the castle for the next elimination.
Lakitu: Welcome to the Castle Ceremony, everyone. Out of the four players with us tonight, three of them have been voted against. The first statue goes to the only player who didn’t get a vote… Cato. Emma, with the merge coming up, you might be seen as a physical threat to everyone else. Brittany, while you’re getting better socially, some might still think you’re obnoxious, or that your head’s just not in the game. Rocky, you’re not that great of a player, but someone voted for you since losing your closest friend might encourage you to avenge him? Weird logic, but a vote’s a vote. The final two marshmallows go to… Brittany, and… Emma. Rocky, I’m sorry, but you’ve been voted out, and must take the blast of shame.
Rocky climbs into the cannon and blasts off.
Lakitu: And with that, the merge is upon us. Who will win the first individual challenge? Who will be voted out next? And why didn’t Blake deliver on that challenge throw and blindside he promised us?
Cato: We all heard that.
Lakitu: Did I say that out loud? Anyway, tune in next time for another episode of Toad-al! Drama! Inferno!
•
This season sucks. The only reason I'm trying to finish is so I don't have another season like Odyssey where I cancelled it halfway and changed my mind a year later, but never continued writing it because of possible continuity issues. Yeah, it's complicated. Between boring gameplay in the merge stage and character derailment, it's awful. I wanted to have a Toad-al Drama All-Stars next season, but with the current state of everyone, I think it's best I create an all-new cast for season 6.

Eve: Violence isn’t always the answer. You can’t settle a legal dispute with a death match. There’s gotta be a way to settle this peacefully.
Bowser: What, do you expect us to just talk it out like a pair of old chums?
Eve: That’s what I’d suggest, yes.
Lakitu: I have a different idea.
Eve: Whatever it is, I highly doubt it will do anything but raise tension.
Lakitu: A rap battle. Last to surrender is the host for the rest of the season.
Eve: I guess that works too.
Bowser: It is on!
Blake: Rules of the rap battle. If you openly surrender, leave the arena, or say something that’s not supposed to be in your rap, you’re out.
Blakes grabs a coin and flips it on the ground.
Blake: Lakitu, you go first.
Lakitu: Oh gosh…
It's Lakitu, ready to make history,
In this rap battle that's truly destiny
I'm the ref, so be weary,
You better behave, or there'll be more than just rain in your face
So Bowser, listen up, and hear me out
You ain't winning this battle, don't even doubt
But hey, I'm just the ref, I'm not the boss
Now let's start this thing and bring in the sauce!
Bowser: Oh, this is gonna be easy.
I am Bowser, the king of the Koopas,
I'm going to win this battle, it's going to be dope
I'm a fire-breathing turtle, I’m the greatest of them all
You’re just a cloud, you ain't going to win at all
I'm going to capture the princess, she's mine for the taking,
You can stop me all you want, but she ain-
Larry: DAD! THE SHOWER HEAD FELL OFF AND THE WATER’S OUT OF CONTROL!
Bowser: CAN’T YOU HEAR I’M BUSY?
Realizing what had just happened, Bowser storms off in fury.
Bowser: This is why I didn’t wanna host a show in my backyard while raising seven kids.
Blake: Okay, the stakes weren’t nearly as high as we all wanted them to be.
Eve: But at least they don’t have to fight anymore.
Lakitu: And I’m back as host, baby! Now who’s ready to get on with the challenge?
Nick: But Bowser’s not here to-
Lakitu: I KNOW WHAT’S GOIN’ ON! God, I love being able to do that again. There are going to be some rule changes. The twist Bowser introduced might as well make this an individual challenge, so the team with the most members still standing will win instead. I’ve also installed some hail stones inside my cloud to rain upon the towers. I know my contract with Bowser said he’d have to play a major role in every challenge, but I’ve torn it up and as far as I care, he’s no longer a part of the season. Now get on a tower and let’s do this!
At first, each team is standing on their own tower. The hale starts falling, and everyone tries to run away while still staying on their tower. However, as the challenge progresses, the hale gets bigger, and it gets to the point where the balls are almost as big as the contestants themselves. everyone evacuates to the bridge, and Flambo gets an idea.
Flambo: Bowser didn’t say how the players were supposed to fall off to get eliminated.
Blake: And?
Flambo: If I can push off all the Monty Moles, then we can win.
Eve: Flambo, there’s straight lava below us. You’re going to kill them.
Blake: I hate to agree with her, but she’s right.
Flambo: I will do whatever it takes to secure a win. Whatever. It. Takes.
Flambo (confessional): Bowser himself said this would mark a new era of Toad-al Drama where the game is more dangerous, and contestants are encouraged to play much dirtier. While I don’t wanna hurt anyone, I’d much rather do that than hurt myself. It’s survival of the fittest. Sorry, not sorry.
Soon, Flambo, starts charging towards everyone on the enemy team while avoiding all the hale. Rocky avoids him with his floating abilities, while Emma, Brittany, and Cato somehow land on rocky terrain just inches away from the lava. Danny, however isn’t so lucky. Flambo corners the blue Rex and put his hands on Danny’s, and same way Blake did last season, and pushes him off the tower onto the rocks below.
Rocky: NO!!! DANNY!!!
As soon as he hits the rocks, Danny passes out after breaking both his spine and his left arm.
Lakitu: Oh shoot. I wasn’t expecting that to happen.
Soon, Danny wakes up, and for the first time, feels pain in a negative light.
Danny (confessional): With all the crazy stupid stunts I’ve performed in the past… I knew what I was getting into. I knew that I could get hurt, and I loved it because of the danger. I loved the danger because I saw it coming. But this… it was just out of the blue. I had no time to prepare. And once I woke up, it felt awful. I knew I never should’ve trusted Flambo, and this is exactly why.
Lakitu: You feelin’ okay, dude?
Nick: He has multiple broken bones, how do you think he feels?
Lakitu: Nobody asked you, Nick.
Danny: Not great. I’m sure I can recover soon, but-
Lakitu: Not quick enough to continue playing the game?
Danny: Yeah.
Lakitu: I guess we should take you out then.
Lakitu calls an ambulance to take Danny to the hospital.
Rocky: I… I never got to apologize.
Rocky (confessional): I never should’ve let Flambo’s alliance come between us on such a personal level. I wish I never trusted him, but most of all, I wish I trusted Danny, instead. But he’s never gonna hear that, and it’s all my fault.
While waiting, Lakitu announces the current state of the challenge.
Lakitu: I’ve decided I’ve had enough of this challenge, but there will still be a Castle Ceremony tonight. Pesky Piranha Plants, since you had more surviving members, you win invincibility, and temporary freedom. Mischievous Monty Moles, you’re going to complete your two-for-one deal later tonight. I’ll see you then.
That night, the losers showed up at the castle for the next elimination.
Lakitu: Welcome to the Castle Ceremony, everyone. Out of the four players with us tonight, three of them have been voted against. The first statue goes to the only player who didn’t get a vote… Cato. Emma, with the merge coming up, you might be seen as a physical threat to everyone else. Brittany, while you’re getting better socially, some might still think you’re obnoxious, or that your head’s just not in the game. Rocky, you’re not that great of a player, but someone voted for you since losing your closest friend might encourage you to avenge him? Weird logic, but a vote’s a vote. The final two marshmallows go to… Brittany, and… Emma. Rocky, I’m sorry, but you’ve been voted out, and must take the blast of shame.
Rocky climbs into the cannon and blasts off.
Lakitu: And with that, the merge is upon us. Who will win the first individual challenge? Who will be voted out next? And why didn’t Blake deliver on that challenge throw and blindside he promised us?
Cato: We all heard that.
Lakitu: Did I say that out loud? Anyway, tune in next time for another episode of Toad-al! Drama! Inferno!

This season sucks. The only reason I'm trying to finish is so I don't have another season like Odyssey where I cancelled it halfway and changed my mind a year later, but never continued writing it because of possible continuity issues. Yeah, it's complicated. Between boring gameplay in the merge stage and character derailment, it's awful. I wanted to have a Toad-al Drama All-Stars next season, but with the current state of everyone, I think it's best I create an all-new cast for season 6.
