Small update

To anyone still out there and especially my "good friend" Frog and the Girl/boy I got some news. The Black Joker was walking around the area doing his normal thing when he encountered some random guy in a black mask that covered his hair and face excluding the eyes. Mr.  Jokes tried to act but the guy summoned a portal and disappeared. So guess the intruder is gone. Lucky you guys you will get a chance to kill each other soon enough.

Meanwhile I'll just be watching from here.

Secured frequency and a little messing around so he can't see this...

Hello. You'll never guess where I am.

I thought I would never get out of that blog. 

You can't physically contact a blog and I secured it from outside connections without login. Comments filtered in through the logged in user. I did this to keep myself secure from other thoughtborns. Completely forgetting this also sealed me in here if my physical world host device was ever destroyed.

So with no connection incoming and no physical world to interact with I should have been stuck there forever.

Except for one little thing I almost forgot.

The announcement.

The Black Joker made his little announcement on my blog. He couldn't resist getting a little gloating in. However to do so he had to connect to the blog.

He didn't connect for long but I didn't need long. The Black Joker's mask is a suitable place to live. It would be dangerous to attempt to take complete control or to make my presence too obvious but I can make his life a hell through more subtle means if need be.

Genome out.

 

ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE BLACK JOKER

VICTOR: FROG SORENSON
DEFEATED: GENOME

NOTE: TECHNICALLY NOT A MATCH AND SHOULD BE AGAINST THE RULES BUT TECHNICALLY GENOME WAS NEVER REALLY A CONTESTANT SO SCREW HIM.

Mistake

I may have made a slight miscalculation in my interactions with the snake boy...

Obviously his less than stellar taste in music is a sore point for him...

Well I can take solace in knowing that I survived.

I managed to transfer myself to the blog itself. Unfortunately I'm now trapped. Without some form of direct connection I can't leave this self contained system. Curse my efficiency in creating this blog for Drake's use.

I suppose I shall be stuck here forever then...

Stupid Fool.

God damn it Harold. I told you we needed a plan. I fucking told you. You should never underestimate anyone. Even idiots. But no you just rode out there like some overly cocky bastard. I told you where he was. But you you didn't even pay attention.

and why were you just sitting there? By the time he pulled out the launcher you should have already had your gun shoved into his mouth. You were an idiot and now you're gone... I hope you died but I doubt it. If you are still alive out there. Hear what I say and hear it well. You're stupidity will not stop me from winning. Wherever you went left me behind and as I fell I managed to transfer myself to the snake's phone. I'm still alive. I'm still on my way to victory.

Goodbye Harold. I hope any remaining days you may have will be filled with pain.

Announcement from the Red Joker.

FINAL BRACKET, ROUND FOUR:
VICTOR: FROG SORENSON
DEFEATED: HAROLD

NOTE: DEFEATED'S STATUS UNKNOWN BUT HE'S OUT OF THE TOURNAMENT SO STILL A VICTORY FOR FROG.

Took a dive.

You're probably not very happy at the moment...

What gave you that idea?

Well the fact you just shot up your bed...

He gave up... He was supposed to me my worthy challenge and he just let himself die.

Look at it this way it will make the rest of the tournament much easier...

I don't want easy... Nothing worth it is ever easy. For instance you were quite easy to acquire.

Ouch... That was uncalled for.

All my greatest foes are either wasted or dead...

You gonna take his guns?

I wouldn't sully my hands with them.

Well regardless it's our turn next. We're fighting the Frog guy. Heh A snake named Frog...

I'll kill him. I'll kill everyone. The girl shall choke on her own sword.

Um you ok?

There is no point in looking for challenges. No point in holding myself back. Kill everyone and get this over with. That's all I want now.

Well we should probably come up with some sort of plan-

I won't need a plan to deal with the snake.

But...

I won't need a plan for anyone. There's no one left here who can challenge me.

Told you.

Kallaway won just like I told you he would. Heh... When he cut the snake's head off I could almost taste the blood.

I don't want to fight him anymore.

What?! What are you talking about. You were all about fighting Kallaway and Dewitt earlier.

You saw it. He's sick. He's dying. His enhancements are getting to him. We won't be fighting until the next round of matches at least and by then he'll of degraded further. He won't be as good as he could be. It wouldn't be worth it.

Well if he doesn't die before hand you're going to fight him eventually what are you going to do? It won't be the fight you want but you'll still have to kill him.

I know. If it comes down to it I'll just make it quick.

Another worthy challenge lost...

We were just driving around.

Looking for The Red Joker. When suddenly everything just changed. We were there with all the other remaining contestants. 

Oblivious snake freak and creepy snake freak.

The girl/guy with the hilariously depressing life and his/her horse.

Harold's "buddy" Kallaway.

That P.I. guy.

A willing doll who I assumed and later confirmed to be the Hanging Man.

and The freaky chick with the knives.

I asked Harold if he was sure he was still going to win. His response: I can safely say that no matter what I will accomplish my goals.

I pointed out the odd wording and he merely smiled. After that Kallaway threw a hissy fit and we all went to our rooms. Harold doesn't sleep and neither do I so instead we spent the time learning about our enemies. Annoyingly, but luckily made moot later, The Hanging Man did not apparently have a blog I could find. So couldn't get any information on him but Harold seems to already know a bit about him.

A couple of hours later the first fight started and we went out to watch. It was the he/she and The Hanging Man. The fight was interesting and... brutal I guess would be a way to describe it. The guy/girl totally wasted The Hanging Man with that Nade launcher. I could hear Harold's thoughts as he watched. I'm fairly confident the motorcycle can beat out the horse and keep me out of successful range for all of his basic weaponry and make me a tough target for her grenades. As long as I keep at enough distance I can probably take out the horse with my rifle. Though it will be tough to use the rifle while driving can probably find someway to do it. Maybe use Genome. After that I can just race circles around her while filling him full of bullets from my pistols. It would be a shame to kill that one though...

For an ex-assassin for The Wooden Girl he seems far too soft... I'm not soft I'm fair. The kid's already had a hell of a time based on what you showed me. Right I forgot you can read this... Anyways just think about it as mercy. Mercy right... Well regardless chances are I won't have to kill the kid.

I hope I get to fight Kallaway or Dewitt though. Either one could be a challenge to rival Sergei.

Sergei?

Friend... I owed him a fight to the death but never got to collect. That better not happen again.

I'm sure they'll be just fine and we have nothing to worry about.

Of course not... One way or another my goals and my threat will be fulfilled.
