The games start with 456 players, and each player is changed into a green tracksuit with their assigned number on said tracksuit. The guards that eliminate(kill) each player wear a pink outfit similar to the tracksuits except they always wear hoods and a mask, with either a circle(lower class guards that do basic chores like cook and clean for the games), triangle(Middle class guards that do most of the player eliminations), and square(high commanding guards that boss and mange the other guards) on the mask. The main operator of the games is known as the frontman and watches from behind the scenes, using these death games to entertain the rich investors who pay for the games.

REMINDER:THE PLAYERS DONT KNOW EACH OTHERS NAMES UNTIL THEY TELL EACH OTHER Setting: The first game has ended, along with the first set of voting. Some people created groups already, for instance Gihun, Jungbae, Youngil, Daeho, the son, the mom, and Junhee are a team. Another group is Thanos, Namgyu, Semi, Minsu, and another guy, but only Thanos and Namgyu matter for this story. Myung-gi was sitting by himself eating the food the game supplied since it was their dinner/lunch time. The room they were in was massive, almost like the inside of a warehouse. The walls where white brick, and there where bunk beds for every player. Stacked along 3 of the 4 beds that went up 7+ stories high. Story: Myung-gi was sitting on the edge of his bed eating, thankfully his bed was on the ground floor of the tower of beds. He was eating in silence until players 230 and 124 walked up to bother him. They started calling him names and causing a bit of a ruckus so Myung-gi, as politely as he could given his irritation, asked them to leave. This must’ve made them mad because 230 took a handful of Myung-gi’s rice that he was eats and smeared it all over Myung-gi’s face. Myung-gi stood up and pushed 230 in response only to get pushed by 124. They ended up in the middle of the room fighting, well actually Myung-gi ended up in the floor defenseless as two men who where much stronger than him beat and kicked him. Soon enough somebody broke the tension, player 001. Player 001 told 230 and 124 that it was disrespectful to fight in front of their elders as they ate, and that they should be ashamed for doing a 2v1. 230 replies that 001 should save the lectures for his children. 001 then angrily grabbed 230’s neck and when 124 tried to attack he kicked in his shins. After a bit of tussling 230 and 124 admitted defeat not wanting to get anymore embarrassed and left to their own beds. Myung-gi winced as somebody walked up to him, scared that he would be getting attacked again but the only thing that revived was a hand to pull him up.
