Well, in GURPS terms, a lot of Doug's XP probably went into learning a bunch of Gate songs that he'll almost certainly never get to use again,
since each individual Gate spell only takes you from one specific dimension to another specific dimension.

Unless he wants to be nasty...




On Warrior's World, Doug switches off the MP4 player. 'Well,' he thought, 'the song did something, but I have no idea what. Must
have been another null song.'




Meanwhile, in another universe, a gate opens up under Bert Van Vliet's feet, sending him to what would become known as the Bubblegum Zone world.




(AFAIK, Bert never did explain how his SI character ended up moving between universes. )




Repeat for any number of "character ends up in a different universe for no known reason" stories, replacing the character and universes as
appropriate...

Ishmael: "Well, don't look at me. What happen to Mister Van Vliet was not my doing. The paperwork would have taken months to process."

BGA Craig: "So what happened to me?"

Ishmael: For you, it took years. I expect the final approval to come through in about....forty years."
