QPQ: - Not done
Overall: @Juxlos: Nice work. I can approve this after you do a QPQ. Epicgenius (talk) 15:00, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Epicgenius and Juxlos: Unsure about ALT0 based on WP:DYKFICTION - Also waiting on QPQ Lightburst (talk) 14:15, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'd thought both hooks were fine, since ALT0 did have some real-world elements (the 75-second deadline is a real-world limit even if the monsters are fake). But we can go with ALT1 once a QPQ has been supplied. Epicgenius (talk) 14:19, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Epicgenius: you may be right EG. Lightburst (talk) 17:59, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
