GOING ON A JUNGLE ADVENTURE, TO SEE WHAT WE CAN SEE

[windykind]

EB: hey everybody!
so i guess we're all stuck here for a little while?
according to that letter i got, anyway. did anyone else get a letter like that?
i guess you all must be from the new session. there sure are a lot of you, though...
in any case, hi! i'm john!
i created you, kind of.
not really.
i actually kind of don't know!
but i guess this place is

hi john
this isnt the game
i thought it might have been at first but apparently its something completely different
and there are people from all kinds of timestreams here
some of them similar to our own
some very different
but possibly youve found that out already

[windykind]

it isn't?
oh, that makes sense, i guess.
sure would explain why there's so many people!
i don't even think sburb could hold all of these guys in one session.

[megid0_maiden]

haha yes
i think if everyone here were in the same session it would be quite the disaster
twelve prototypings were bad enough; id hate to see what the enemies would have been like with any more

[windykind]

wow you're right, that would be crazy!
i didn't even think about the enemies.
i just thought the game would crash or something! ha ha.
then we'd all be screwed.

[megid0_maiden]

well no that wouldnt be good either
though
i mean
i dont know much about video games
but it didnt seem like the sort of game that could crash?
at least not in the same way other games do

[windykind]

think about it!
if the game crashed, then what would happen?
would the world explode?
or maybe it would scratch itself automatically.

[megid0_maiden]

that seems more likely
the scratch i mean
though i expect the game also takes measures to stop so many from being in one session in the first place

[windykind]

it probably would.
shut down the server or something if too many people come in.
but it would be weird to think about, though!
all those people working together...

[megid0_maiden]

hmm no
i think it is a little more controlled than that
after all it has to ensure the full circle is completed
that might not happen if it just shut down suddenly
i think
it only makes itself available to a fixed number
and noone else would find it even if they wanted to

[windykind]

you're probably right.
that thing works in mysterious ways.
it can likely control things like that, even though most people would think it can't.
kind of like... destiny?
or something.
kind of.
i don't know.

[megid0_maiden]

when you think of everything else thats been made possible by the game its not such a stretch
anyway
enough of the game
are you finding your way here all right?

[windykind]

i know, but it's still a little crazy.
anyway.
yeah, i'm doing pretty good!
it doesn't seem that bad, if you don't take into account the four-person bedrooms.

[megid0_maiden]

really?
i thought that was one of the nicer ideas this place had
though i suppose it depends who you room with
have you been able to explore much yet?

[windykind]

not really, i only got here a little while ago!
but i'll probably start going on an expedition sometime.

[megid0_maiden]

well let me know if youd like some company
a lot is still new but i think im getting a feel for the place now

[windykind]

sure thing!
see you around.
