1. Rocko’s Modern Life

3. PepsiCo

Personally, I love doing the one-person franchise jobs as it allows me to be super creative. However, I can understand that those will be very minimal. Alongside this, I feel our next franchise expansion should be focused on another aspect besides racers so that’s why my first two votes are for Rocko and Thomas (hoping Thomas wins since I want a vehicle expansion). PepsiCo gets third since I love food mascots. They are all great expansion ideas so great job everyone!

Tracks with Unique Gimmicks Mini-Franchise:

Hasbro Gaming

IMG_0023.jpeg


I don’t think we have a board games-based franchise yet so why don’t we go with Hasbro Gaming? We can always expand it later on but I have some unique gimmick based boards here.

Monopoly Board

Music: Monopoly Live Background Music


It's a smaller track as it will be faster to complete so more laps (basically this game's version of Baby Park). The racers are shrunk down to the size of the game board and you race around the board. There are a few gimmicks on this racetrack:
  • Passing GO gets you a speed boost
  • When any racer passes a Chance or Community Chest space, you get a card that will either buff or nerf your stats
  • You can also pick up the house and hotel hazards as they are placed down and throw them at other racers.
Also, there will be hands showing that people are playing Monopoly so watch out as those as hazards and can hinder you! Forgot to mention, if you are picked up as a game piece, the hand can place you anywhere on the track so may the odds be in your favor!

Candy Land

Music: Sweet Celebration (from the Candy Land movie)


Another fun board-game based course. Basically, it’s a two-part course but with another twist. The whole movement of your cart involves you hitting the card pile for Candy Land. Thus, this will determine where you spawn on the race track so you could potentially end up pretty far. The first lap ends at Grandma Nutty’s house and ends at King Kandy’s castle.

However, you will need to continue hit the cards to determine your placement. If you get a licorice card, you will be stuck on a licorice space for a few seconds! There are also move back cards (not seen in Candy Land but still important to keep the race longer and more interesting) that can place you back. May luck be in your favor in the race to visit King Kandy!

Items franchise: Garfield

  1. Morning Coffee - Oil Tank
  2. Beware of Dog sign - Tacks
  3. Lasagna - Flame Power
  4. Abu Dahbi package - Exploding Traffic Light
  5. Monday - Homing Missile
  6. Splut Pie - Dummy Wheel
  7. Pooky - Speed Bomb
  8. Spaghetti and Meatballs - Ice Crystal
  9. Comic Panel - Force Field
I know the speed bomb is based on the magic wand from Garfield Kart, but it also isn't really a distinctly "Garfield" piece of iconography so I left it out for Pooky
I will resubmit my Garfield items

  1. Google/YouTube - 2
  2. Jimmy Neutron - 5
  3. Jurassic Park - 7
  4. Thomas & Friends - 7
  5. Portal - 11
  6. Rocko's Modern Life - 12
  7. Pepsi - 16
The long-awaited (out universe, I'm not sure if you can say the same in-universe) Pepsi expansion is here!

Among Us/Innersloth


First track: The Skeld - Song: Original
A long, 2-lap track. This track's layout is very much inspired by the Among Us skeld layout. It is overlaid with many screens showing random racers you'll need to pay attention to - for one racer has been deemed an impostor. The impostor racer has access to beefed up items in crazy quantities, but needs to use these in moderation. Once the first place racer hits the second lap, you'll be stopped and have to choose one from a pool of 4 racers who could potentially be the impostor, with first place always being an option even if they aren't the impostor. If the impostor is sussed out, they'll turn into a pitifully slow Crewmate, who just walks about like that MKW mod. If you correctly guess the impostor, you'll get a speed boost even if the impostor didn't get majority vote, and if you're majority voted as sus despite not being an impostor, you will recieve minor stat nerfs.

Second track: The Airship - Song: Distraction Dance
Based on Henry Stickmin, this course is quite simple - Stickmin's all about the references, so when you race on this stage your vehicle will randomly change.


  1. Jurassic
  2. Pepsi
  3. Thomas
1. Rocko’s Modern Life
2. Thomas and Friends

Submit a public domain folklore or myth franchise!

These have been submitted a lot - These have to be ancient and predate copyright, so no Robin Hood/Dracula/Pooh - though I would allow characters like that on their own in a wider franchise (so, for instance, a "scary myths" season could have Dracula). I won't be allowing any religions - though Greek gods are fine. The connections between the content of the season can be vague - so, you can do "yokai" or you can just do "Asian myths"

Myth franchise submission:
Greek Mythology
1690449277781.png

Ah yes, one of the most recognizable mythologies of all time, Greek mythology!
Greek Mythology is one of mythologies that originated from ancient Greece and it was consists of stories about gods and origins from ancient greek person's perspective.

Racers:
1. Zeus
2. Hades
3. Hermes

Content ratio:
14 racers (we can also allow mythological creatures from greek mythology)
3 vehicles
2 tracks
2 wheels

I think Greek Mythology makes sense here in this game, since most of the world knows about it and it gave a huge influence on various media.

Norse/Scandinavian Mythology

Racers: Thor, Odin, Kraken



IMG_0035.jpeg


Another popular pantheon of mythology right here (and one of my favorites). It’s been super influential on pop culture like Greek mythology. Thor obviously won’t be based on his Marvel superhero adaptation but moreso off of the original Thor himself. From the gods and goddesses to the creatures, there’s lots of fun to be had here when it comes to submitting!

Content:

15 Racers
3 Vehicles
1 Track
2 Skins

I think this and my submission may cannibalize one another. I'll let you decide whether to keep it and I'll remove mine, or I'll keep mine and you remove yours.

Ancient Epics

Instead of just bringing together characters from all mythologies this would bring together heroes (or villains) from various ancient epic texts from different mythologies. I would say a character has to have a special role in the text specifically to be eligible just so people don't end up submitting a really important mythological figure just because he was mentioned once in one text.
11 Racers
2 Vehicles
5 Tracks
3 Skins

Characters:
1. Son Wukong (Journey to the West)
2. Gilgamesh (The Epic of Gilgamesh)
3. Achilles (The Illiad)

DriDim is partaking in its first official tournament!

Please submit up to 5 top players!
Please include their user name, and ideal vehicle/racer combination - you can submit different colours for the vehicles, but none for wheels or racers beyond their existing alts. The user name should be completely original - or at least generic enough to where anyone could have it - and not the same as a known player of another game, nor any SB users. The names cannot be related to their car combos. We'll be voting for their placement within the tournament. May the best racer win!

The current job for today has been restarted. I'll restart it with the same rules, BUT only one player and kart per user, and just choose the victor in voting, not the full top 20.

Additionally, I will place a bonus job:

Submit a prize set for the top player!
Monetary rewards will be up to your imagination, but there'll be some dinky exclusive merch attached too. Please submit a maximum of 5 items
