Try to imagine a Wizard of Wor/SL crossover

[64winkle]

Imagine two parallel universes collide and WIZARD OF WOR becomes integrated into Second Life...so red scorpions roam across all sims attacking residents and the Wizard of Wor himself taunts residents and zaps them (destroying them permanently). Do you think this would improve SL or be to its detriment?

4) One bite from my pretties, and you'll explode, ha ha ha ha!

8) Remember, I'm the wizard, not you.

11) If you destroy my babies, I'll pop you in the oven! Ha ha ha ha!

Wizard of Wor is an arcade game released in 1980 by Midway. Up to two players fight together in a series of monster-infested mazes, clearing each maze by shooting the creatures. The game was ported to the Atari 8-bit family, Commodore 64, Atari 2600, and Atari 5200 and renamed to The Incredible Wizard for the Bally Astrocade.

 

I had to Google it because I was not familiar that game.

Definitely a detriment.  We all have different reasons for being here and mine most definitely has nothing to do with reincarnating anything from the games of my youth. 

I want to play dress up, shop, do hunts, listen to music, dance, and chit-chat with people.  At no point in my SL fun do I have any desire to battle anything or anyone.

Absolutely.  Some SL residents are here to play games (I enjoy some myself every once in a while).  A very large number have no interest in games at all.  The least thing we need is a bunch of people romping across SL, pretending that they are in WoW.

/me imagines a horde of raving fashionistas hurling their shopping bags at the red scorpions who've invaded the Arcade. it will be truly gruesome.

Would Ebbe Linden feel a direct threat to his authority if the Wizard of Wor roamed SL? What do you think?

That's like the question that the twelve-year-old boys asked in Stand By Me: "If Superman and Mighty Mouse got into a fight, who would win?"

We all know it, but it's such an awesome song it needs repeating.
