Didn't know there was as much chance as that.
Forgive me, I didn't explain fully. The mods' map is a giant web. From each location, there are four lines to four other locations. One is where you came from, the other three are where you could go from there. The middle line is the "straight" or "West" direction, the others are left and right, respectively. At the location you were at, Straight led to the South. We set it up this way so it would be easier to keep track of players movements, so we would be able to preset scenarios in the interest of fairness, and to throw some fun twists into the game. It's not really random, as in, we just decided to toss you south by some random decider such as dice, but it is random in that not all locations are set up like that. Some players will run into deadends and have to retrace their steps. Others will only be able to move backwards on the map. It just depends on which lines lead where, and which ones you decide to take.

Does it also move players forward?
Sorry, I can't tell you that.
