Haha, just for a moment I was like "holiday bustle?"

Even with all of my American friends... you guys and your weird holiday dates...

Breakdown of this contest:

There is no roll order for this event, you may all roll and post your outcome whenever you wish. However, you may only roll once a round and cannot post your next roll until the next round. You will know when a new round begins because I will post the results of the previous one. So if you have already posted what you got and I haven’t responded yet, don’t post another roll yet. You can post a comment or reaction or anything else if you want, but don’t post a new number.

Here is a sample round, in case this isn’t clear.
1) Each contestant will roll one die. You may use this one if you wish, or a real one.
2) Each contestant will post their result in the game thread.
3) Those who have posted a result may now make general posts, but may not post another result yet.
4) When all contestants have posted their result, I will make a post recapping any action that took place.
5) At this time, all contestants still in the game will roll another die and post their next result.
6) Repeat from Step 3 as needed.

Good luck! :)
Post any questions here.

Why would there be redundancy in here?

Because you have already repeated yourself (in several different ways) and people keep asking questions that result in similar answers. But I was just joking around.
