This thread is for an event that will begin on the 17th of December, 5:00 PM (Pacific Time)
The event in question is....The Nintendo Trail!
Ever heard of The Oregon Trail? This is basically that, but with multiple people making decisions and interacting with each other. Oh, and also Nintendo.
How it works
Status Conditions
Godmodding
Never use godmodding. The mod(s) will only use it against you and it almost guarantees something bad to happen to your character. This is an example of godmodding:
Basically, don't decide the results of your actions. Don't say 'I punch Bowser Jr. and he dies'. Say 'I punch Bowser Jr.'.

Heavily inspired by the BiTF trail, and some text in this op comes straight from it. If you want to see how the game would play, I recommend reading through one of the teams' playthroughs. http://brawlinthefamily.keenspot.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?54
Please express any thoughts, criticisms or questions in the comments and I will try to answer all of them.
As a note, would anyone be willing to be a second mod for when I'm not around? I would really appreciate it.

How it works
Choose a game character that has appeared on a Nintendo system. This can be anyone from Mario to Saki to Cloud.
You can choose up to four items to take with you, within reason. You can also take multiple of the same item to still count as one item slot, but again, within reason.
For example, Samus' four items could be:
Varia Suit
Super Missiles (x6)
Energy Tanks (x2)
High Jump Boots
Samus couldn't have the gunship in her inventory, due to obviously not being able to carry it, and neither can she have 50 super missiles.
When the game begins, all players begin in a town with their items and a certain amount of money. Here, you can stock up on various wares for the journey ahead. Other opportunities to spend money will appear along the journey.
Every situation that arises is controlled by the moderator (mod). It is the players' jobs to react to these situations and try to survive through them. Various events will appear along the way, including battles and opportunities to explore. Items will also be found or available to be bought. Items can be crafted into others. (Ex. a stone can be tied to rope to create a mace)
I also suggest that you elect a captain and co-captain to have a structure to your band of heroes.

Godmodding
Never use godmodding. The mod(s) will only use it against you and it almost guarantees something bad to happen to your character. This is an example of godmodding:
Here is a scenario:
User A didn't read the rules.
User B is a pro.
User A:
My character marches into the forest and then comes out with 100000000 MILLION BAJILLION INFINITY FOOD SO WE NEVER DIE OF STARVATION
User B:
My character enters the woods in hopes of finding materials for the team to use for later. He braces himself, and after a bit of hesitation he enters.
Now, the mod knows what to do here. User A is doing it completely wrong, and User B is being completely fair.
Here's his response.
Mod:
User A has come back into camp with 10000000 MILLION BAJILLION FOOD! Great job!
Just as he walks to the camp... Suddenly a strange UFO arrives just above User A! It looks like they've been on a food search FOR DAYS. They immediately spot User A, who is holding a bunch of food!
They swiftly abduct User A, and fly away with him and his stash of food.
User A, you have been taken to alien territory, and in the process of going from land to space, your body was unable to handle the transition. You have DIED.
User B on the other hand, enters the forest, and he spots several apples on a tree! Will you take the apples?
User A didn't read the rules.
