You awake to a bright screen, it has a picture of some characters who you identify as superheroes and a stylised logo that reads “Marvel Puzzle Quest”. There is a descending list of topic names that it appears are clickable. Your eye is drawn to one called “What’s New MPQ – July Update”. It is August.
Page 2 - Adventure awaits
! Something inside you stops you as you were about to click your mouse button…just in time you avoid a deadly barrage of off topic posts that would have sucked the life out of you. Good job!
Page 3 Adventure awaits
! What are you some kind’a mook? It is AUGUST Dummy! We warned you! Your adventure ends here. You will never know the secret of the Forums now!!!

! If you say “Ooooh Omega Red!” – Go to Page 4
! If you say “Friends are Forever vault?” – Go to Page 5
Page 4 Adventure awaits
! You are overcome by tentacles and overly requested MPQ characters, you are sucked down into a Jim Lee illustrated warmness that you never want to exit. You require no further adventures.
Page 5 Adventure awaits
! What treachery is this? Friends are NOT Forever! You are driven to an insane rage and then you see something that may answer so many questions…
!
! If you click on the MPQ Developer Q&A July (ANSWERS) thread go to page 6
! There is no other option. Go to page 6.
Page 6 Adventure awaits
! Desperately you search for some meaningful answer to the strangeness that your life has become, your pour through the answers to find out if Entrailbucket finally got his question answered and whether Chasm will ever be nerfed? You have never before come across these words and forgot why you started doing this in the first place? Then you remember…Friends are forever! Alliance friends! WHEN IS THE NEXT ALLIANCE EVENT? You scream into the void expecting nothing until you hear a faint reply…almost imperceptible against the chatter of other topics…a voice says…try the What’s New MPQ August thread…YES! The answers that you seek must be there! You start to search the forum…
!
! Your adventure ends here.
ROFL.
That was… Brilliant.
I died at decision 1. Did you follow the hidden structure of the CYOA format?

The real Forever Friends are the Friends we made along the way.
Oh no memory trigger of a guy called Phatax !!! What great books they were 
Of course my curiosity made me read all the alternate endings too
Daz you should write your own graphic novels
Next alliance event? Funny you should say that… preview for puzzle gauntlet is up! No preview for a boss event tho… if only there was an August thread! 
Ooooo I like this! Maybe I should try “Choose your own Meeting” post!
