Intro log: Welcome to The Resort!

Before you even open your eyes, you can tell something is not right. It's cold. Not quite unbearably so, but cold enough that you can take notice of it. And as soon as you open your eyes, you will be able to see why it's so cold: you're in the middle of a snowy forest, with only a single two-lane road cutting through the thick trees.
Unfortunately, you seem to be without transportation. Fortunately, you are wearing warm clothes and snow gear, so freezing isn't an immediate problem. But without transportation, you're in for a long walk ahead of you.
There are others around as well. Other people, just as lost and confused as you are. Everyone seems to be lacking any memory that might explain why everyone is here. As far as anyone knows, all of you were just ripped out of your previous lives and dumped here on this snowy road, wearing snow gear and having any items that are important to you already on hand. And for some of you, you even have a new power, one that you somehow instantly know how to use...
Two ways to go: forward and back. Despite having no indication of which way is the 'right' way, you feel drawn towards one direction in particular. Going 'back' is possible, but you get the feeling that you will be even more lost if you try. And given that you have no food or water on you, it's best to keep moving forward.
So, are you ready to walk? Because you have a long road ahead of you.
((Welcome to The Resort! Your characters will have any objects or animals with them that they should have given their canon point, but are dressed in cold weather clothing.
This prompt is just the first part of the intro log. New top-levels will go up over the course of the weekend as everyone progresses from 'where the hell am I?' to the resort proper, and to getting settled in. For now, just start with this prompt. We'll link further updates here for easy access.))

[ She is asking this question to so many people and based on information she's been getting, she's got to know now. ]
no subject
[Time shenanigans have been vaguely brought up before, but so much has been happening that it's one of the things she hasn't looked into yet.]
It's 2027.

[But come on, thinking it was just that Inaba didn't understand duel monsters or duel disk technology was a lot more reasonable than assuming she was from 17 years ago. Jeez.
She shakes her head.]
Let's... just say that we're both here from different times. But when is this?
no subject
[ She probably wouldn't have thought of "being from the past" either, but that's because she's from a relatively normal world where things like this just don't happen! They just don't. The bodyswapping incident was just a one off thing.
Another sigh. She swears, she's going to get wrinkles. ]
I kind of asked the staff, and they said it was November. . . of 2018.
no subject
... That's kind of halfway between us, I guess. It could be worse? That's a weird thing to have to think.
I don't know if we should believe them about the date, but...
no subject
Yeah, I don't know either but I'm just wondering why would they lie about the date to begin with?
[ That's just the weirdest shit to lie about?? ]
no subject
[Look, she's familiar with all sorts of shady dealings and people trying to outmaneuver each other but it usually has to do with card games and hackers, not... whatever this is. There might be hacking involved, but she's pretty sure it's not any kind of hacking she's ever seen.]
Make us argue?

no subject
[They still haven't reached the levels they're going to reach on Monday, but they're giving it a good go. She thinks about it for another moment. She takes constructive crit!]
... Or they actually believe something that's not true, themselves. Now that I think about it, the staff... really don't seem like they have much personality of their own, do they? Like they're programmed...
no subject
[ Which would make sense, considering just how strange they are. ]
And yeah, they seem kinda. Hm. Soulless?
no subject
[And they are pretty creepy back home, especially the ones that are made specifically to hunt down human duelists. Nothing like tentacle monsters to complement a dead fish robot voice.]
