Boredom, it's the bane of everyone despite the almost infinite time sinks that populate the internet. Which lead you to the sorry path of data privacy, while trying out a new torrent tracker among the old faithfuls, fallen to disconnections and legal actions. You heard interesting things about the new revolutionary simulation video game 'suburbs' which offers a fresh take and trying to claim the market after EA discontinued the Sims series. Although the first link comes up seems to have a typo in its name. Although you sum it down to laziness. You decided to start the torrent and then go to bed to sleep out the wait. The next day, you boot the computer from its idle state and rejoice to the fact that the torrent has completed. Although after extracting the files, you spot something wrong with the name still, also there seems to be multiple files. Although not a single 'read me' file or information. You wrack your brain as you decide the next course of action A: Sburbclient.exe B: Server.exe C: Hasslemate.exe D: This isn't what I wanted at all, delete the files E: Examine the website where it came from. F: Something else, write in. In addition to the above, a random pop up activates while mulling it over, asking for information. You can't click it off, it only providing an error tone when you click cancel.

I also vote C and for parkour and competitive hot dog eating. Let's throw in playing the flute, since we are contractually obligated to play an instrument since we are an human Sburb player.

C: IIIIIII You decided to click on the third icon which has loads an IM program of which, might as well see what scoop you can get. It's asking for a 'hassletag' which to your quick observation is just two words typed together. So you just put in 'ordainedTraceuse' based on account of your major and hobby. With that completed, you get access to the vast chat capacity of the- oh there's only 7 other names here, and only two of them online. You decide to just square things down and talk to both of them. Although you doubt that anything significant- >"Enter name" What what, you already have a name. You got one 20 something years ago. It's- Tollymain posted:
> "Try again" Tollymain, Poison Mushroom, Nyaa, blastron, paranoid randroid posted:
Okay why not? You are VENN DYGRIMM, and as it has been made clear before. You are BORED OUT OF YOUR MIND. In the cramped and small room that makes up your DORM ROOM, you see your student desk with laptop which currently has the IM program waiting for your attention as well as a website you frequently SHITPOST with a passion which sums to relieve your boredom called "somethingawful.com" as well trolling and being banned from online survivalist communities for arguing against DOOMSDAY THEORIES and infuriating them. As such as it stands, you are working on a THESIS over the holidays where you are procrastinating badly. Your eyes get drawn up to the wall behind the desk where you come face to face with...  Ignoring the fact that it's downloaded and then just printed on the communal photocopier and hastily sticky taped to the wall. You love PARKOUR because of it stylish efficiency of movement. On a second floor and next class is in an adjacent building? Vault that poo poo. It's practically indispensable to you. Even though you're still an AMATEUR at it, self taught at that. > Retrieve arms from Desk Uh, they're attached to your shoulders like normal arms, okay? Although you get something much more important instead. Your otamatone! Originally used to ANNOY your friends and IMITATING BIRDS in the middle of climbing stuff. You actually warmed to it, to actually focus on learning songs. Although you would love to play something, your laptop is chiming with a scroll of messages from newly made 'mates' > Respond to your mates - - astronomicalSalvager began hassling ordainedTraceuse - - AS: Hello! Welcome to the hidden gem that is sburb. AS: I expect that it was difficult to get, considering I had to use all my favours just to track the retail version down, and now owe more favours than anything just getting it. AS: But since you managed to get it, you must be an excellent searcher as well. We'll have to share sources and tactics later. AS: But since I got the physical copies of it, I just thought to message you, and fill you in with the little information I have AS: First someone runs the client program, secondly someone else runs the server program, the client presses enter, and the game begins. OT: klsjhdkgjklss, okay stop, what game, is this a cheap version of a copy of a game that itself is a copy of the 'sims' AS: Kinda? AS: Yeah, although 'suburbs' came out after this, which I blame for the obscurity of this game the first time. AS: Although you probably already know this since you found it. OT: hang on a second AS: What is it? Wait is he messaging you? - - clericalGeologist began hassling ordainedTraceuse - - CG: hey CG: I know you're new and such, but the scoop is that you're the destined one who finally stopped this stalemate CG: hopefully now we can actually start the game and we can get this thing going already OT: what? CG: Bottom line: run the server program. CG: that way we start the game. CG: I'm John, looking forward to playing with you AS: Mr 'dug it up from a yard' is asking to go, right? AS: He's been badgering everyone ever since he got the game. AS: Instead of that, why not be a client yourself? I think I know how to do it? AS: But anyway, you can call me Nova, What do you do? You can ask any questions or say anything to the two players currently online. You A: Load Sburbclient.exe and tell Nova to boot it up. B: Load server.exe and tell John to hook up. C: Lie to both of them, and facilitate both of them to connect to each other instead. You have an urge to play your otamatone for some reason. D: Play a haunting refrain on your otamatone E: Look up the torrent and see what the hell is going on. F: Squawk like an imbecile and poo poo on your desk. G: Delete the files and get on with your life. H: Something else, write in
