Overview

The Party Goers visit an alternate reality with parallels of many of the Party Goers. This OG was lost in the OG Crash, though Page 1 and 2 were found on the Way Back Machine. It ended with something involving a giant factory run by Masamura (a combination of a parallel Masamune and Murasame) and the Party Goers probably escaping to their own world. It was known to have been at least three pages in length.

Plot Summary

Golem is remarking on the mysterious nature of his pen and how it has adventure-causing powers. He decides to leave it in his SNES for safe keeping. Meawhile Yoshiman and Vorpal are playing Bingo and Yoshiman decides he should practice being a villain. Vorpal encourages this and soon enough Masamune and Flutter are also spontaneously at their house talking about it. In Cincinatti, Magikoopa and Team Rocket are playing blackjack with Sapphire. The Replaforce happen to be at an IHOP engaging in typical Replaforce stuff.

Back in Ditto's place, he delivers a powerful plot-moving monologue that results in most of the characters being warped into a parallel dimension (described oocly as being like Termina). Everyone is taken there except Flutter and Fuzzball, likely due to have being forgotten. While they begin trying to find the others and figure out the mystery, the Party Goers are waking up in a parallel world trying to figure out what's going on.

Vorpal begins turning evil again without the presence of Warpei and decides to take over the world. With Team Rocket, Magikoopa and gang are happy to find out that they now own all of Nevada, including Area 51. Masamune wakes up in a desolate spot to discover he's been separated from Dodo, he also finds that Ditto is also trapped there without Guisseppie and cannot transform (and is stuck in the form of a Black Mage). The two grudgingly agree to work together, although neither caring much for the other. Likewise, Dodo and Guisseppie wake up in the same area with no idea where they are, since none of the authors had done any describing up to this point.

Ditto and Masamune soon find a McDonalds where one of the employees is Cat. A short discussion with him reveals that they are stuck in what seems to be the End of Time. After wandering around some more, Masamune decides to test whether it is an alternate dimension by summoning Dargo, a robotic servant he had recently developed. However this Dargo turns out to be this world's law enforcement, who arrests Ditto and Masa on grounds of assassinating Lord Oddball Mario. Meanwhile Dodo uses Guisseppie to turn into a 'Secret Agent' in order to avoid attention.

While Vorpal runs aimlessly through the desert, he runs across a Sky Palaces R Us run by Arab Dude and Wavorpal. Although Vorpal can't afford a Sky Palace, he manages to trade for one with a stick of Juicy Fruit, which is considered a rare delicacy in that world. Meanwhile all this time Golem has been buried under rubble and is suddenly rescued by Rkykette, who is a female version of Rhyk. Back with Dodo and Guisseppie, they arrive in a city looking for information. While Dodo tries using his charms on a woman to get information, he is knocked out by a man identified as Igor.

References/Homages to Other OGs

The OG has many references to other OGs, particulary the VGF Member OG series that it is loosely based upon.

• Vorpal, Yoshiman, and Mr. Predict get into a discussion about how Vorpal is now a good guy and Yoshiman should become the new villain. By this point, shifting from good to bad and vice versa is a Party Goers staple.
• In Masamune's first post, the character Masamune reflects that he is on his way to becoming the "Head Gardener". This was obviously a foretelling of how Masamune would soon be the new Lord of the OG Board at Gamehikers.
