Cookie Quest

[SonicLover]

You are the girl pictured above. The one with the "YOU" floating above her head.

You are a Cheetah Scout, the bravest of the brave, the wiliest of the wily. You are out selling Cheetah Scout cookies for your troop. The sidewalk leading off the top of the screen leads up to the house of your next potential customer.

You are also the protagonist of an MSPA fan adventure, which means your destiny is in the hands of the group of misfits that browse the MSPA forum.

You can't seem to remember your name. Your name is a downright silly thing to forget, but apparently your sudden amnesia is for the sake of the narrative.


You are transported to a strange dimension where you can apparently be given a name. Also, you appear to be glowing for some reason.

Now then... you seriously hope one of the forum-goers can give you a suitable moniker.

I'm trying something a little new. This may appeal to some, this may appeal to others.

As is the custom, some prankster tries to assign you an entirely unflattering name as a joke. You'd deck her in the nose if you weren't on opposite sides of the fourth wall.


Thankfully, someone else is a bit saner, and gives you a name you can work with.


And now you're back here.

Your name is Lucy. (You can worry about last names later.) Even though you were only just given that name, you've apparently had it all your life. Which makes absolutely no sense, but what MSPAFA is any different?

As is previously mentioned, you are a Cheetah Scout, and you're out selling scout cookies. The sidewalk leading off the top of the screen leads to the house of your next potential customer. You haven't sold many cookies yet, but you're sure someone will buy if you keep at it.

Someone suggests that you check the numbers written on the sidewalk before proceeding to the customer's house. An excellent idea.


A set of red arrows appear to indicate that you're looking at the numbers. They look like they were written in chalk. A blue 3, a white 5, a green 2, a purple 1, and a red 4. Maybe they're a puzzle solution for later.

You then begin to approach the customer's house, but before you can take another step the author inexplicably puts the adventure on hiatus.

Several years pass without an update. A few people post suggestions of varying seriousness, but since the author seems to have abandoned you and your adventure none of them matter.


You've had enough.

You've been standing here motionless for years now, after only a small taste of activity. You're not going to be confined by this stupid adventure about cookies and customers anymore.

Screw this. You're going to break your bonds and give this "author" person a piece of your mind.

...Now, how are you going to do it?

oh and this adventure actually is on hiatus what

[simon.clarkstone]

Maybe it's some kind of elaborate meta-joke, and he never intends to finish. If I were to start a similar adventure now would be the ideal time to set up a gag like this.
