Overview[edit]
A book project spearheaded by Vorpal (correct me if I'm wrong) that didn't quite get off the ground. The project was carried out in secret with a select group of writers (the above listed plus Sapphire and Elzie, with Ditto promising an epilogue) and referred to publicly as the Party Goers Bootleg OGs. Though incomplete, Big Al has taken up the project on his own--it can be seen here.
As the intent was to get the book published, some characters received changes to make them legally distinct and/or less complex:
- Nintenfreak was renamed Phostheo (End in the current project).
- Flutter was no longer a Koopa, though this change had already been made prior to the book.
- Luiigii of the Pipes was renamed Lumei of the Pines (Loomy in the current project) and references to Jedi, Goombas, and Mario Bros.-esque fireballs were removed.
- Yoshiman was changed into Guana Mann, distinctly not a Yoshi.
- Masamune was renamed Marsharoon (but changed back in the current project) and Dodo was renamed Doodle.
The project was meant to be spread across 33 Chapters (but there is no Chapter Six) along with a Prologue and Epilogue, with each being written by an author in rotating fashion. A guideline was laid out by Vorpal to establish where each chapter should end off, to ensure that the plot progressed sufficiently. Artwork would have also been inserted; along with some of the above authors, Toby (the golden child of Gamehiker) had also volunteered to provide the imagery.
