Hey everyone.... by now everyone's particpated or atleast seen some kind of Train/Parade in Elderine right? Well we've developed one with a slight twist. No longer do people join from the rear of the train, now they join from the front.

"Wait, what?" you ask? This is how.

The person in the front's sole responsibility is not to keep the train going and lead it to all 4 corners of Elderine, it is simply to pass off the leadership of the train to some poor unwitting soul that just happens to be going about their day in Elderine.

The "victim" doesn't get asked to be a part of this train, they are forced to be a part of this train simply by the current leader's issuing of the "follow" command.

Playing this game results in many a "***?" moment by the new leader, but then they usually quickly get the hang of it and are more than happy to find another victim. You'll get cries of "but i don't wanna lead!!!" from the reluctant leader, but it's up to you, the people starting the train to egg them on to find another person to start following so the train builds from the front.

obviously you should avoid AFK people, people on movers, and those nubs shouting for buffs (the lowest form of riff-raff). i think at most we got up to about 16 people, i couldn't see the names of the people in the front.

Hmm I don't think it was Ricky, that just doesn't ring any bell for me.

But I can't remember what it was either. :s

Anyway it was lots of fun, the video is only of the last 16 minutes though as I said (speeded it up), lots of stuff happened before that like with the mentioned Stonebear and Bubba, lol.

Yeah, for Fiesta's first year, myself and 2 others ran the Christmas day parade in Bijou. (this was in 2007) That was quite an experience, and I wish I still had screenies of it. At first, things were slow, and those two others kept having to leave to fight in silly guild wars people were declaring against them. But eventually, we succeeded in having over 40 people in our train, and lasting for several hours.

I miss this kind of thing as well. Maybe I'll try a christmas train again this year.

P.S. Hi Fatal!

Well, Penicilin is the course of treatment for Human Syphilis, but there is no known cure for Kitty Syphilis, perhaps because of the prurient nature of the kitties belies all attempts to treat that disease.

Lol what made me laugh is at the end of the video Ran said, "At least they stopped calling it the iRan Fan Train.." (or something like that).. Which is funny cause I was afk when he filmed and I wasn't calling it that xD

Edit: I (think) I'm the one who started that o.0
