Well if we go with GM assignment-wise... Probably looks something like this for possible assignments.

North (MechonRaptor/Sho/Flood/X)
[@alexfangtalon][@Alder][@ZachChase][@1Charak2]

East (X/Mechon/Flood)
[@Sho Minazuki][@floodtalon]

South (Sho/flood)
[@I-Am-X][@Amaterasu][@MechonRaptor][@TalijaKey]

West (floodtalon/Sho/Mechon/X)
[@Shadeflare123][@Sen][@Deos Morran]

Of course, we're missing two GMs, Bornlucky due to family reasons, and AbysmalDemon will need to step down as GM, though he can still participate as a player.

Which leads me to one last thing, who wants to be a Contest-related GM?

I will also note one thing. Player or GM, you are allowed to submit NPCs to meet along the journey, it will be the GM's responsibility to use them correctly too.
