If you want to join it, just put your OC's name and app link.

Re: ΛNSΘ Session - Login
God, so many people in so little time. I love you guys seriously.
And guys don't be afraid to propose some kind of error or glitch or bug or simply a condition to make the game harder. It'll be fun!
The thing is: we have four dersites. 4/6. And this is killing me and my symetrism sense. Oh god i'm going to keep it like that. Changed Silete with Haidan. NOW WE ARE SYMETRICAL.
Hmm... i'm sorry, but we already have a Void player... i don't know what are the problems in repeating aspects or classes, so i prefer to stuck with the tradicional "one of each" session.
Don't you have any other OC?
Oh god thats hard to choice. I think Kelran will do better, since we already have a Sylph, and i don't know the problems of repeating classes or aspects.
And we probably need a Seer. And god we will need Life. Yeah, she's totes in.
Uhg so many choices. And every one of the is temptating me...
I think i'll select one of the Prospitans, since we already have three Dersites.
I think that we must wait for the last player. So we can think what the session needs, and select the prospitan that completes the session in a better way.
Sorry, i skipped this one.
So i'm not really a fan of fan classes. But god i liked Silete a lot. She's like super badass and killer and villain and i'd love to fight her and befriend her before she kills me for the second time.
and she's a time player bitch please two birds with a stone
Actually i mistook Haidan for another troll. I think that he's also very cool too! And royal: we need confiance in our session. And having a luck-manipulator that creates asskicking-aspect-related stuff in the alchemiter will help us a lot.
So i'm changing her for Haidan.

She's so perfect to this session it hurts.
A) Shes a woman.
B) Shes a human.
C) Shes a bard.
D) Shes a prospitan.
E) She hates adult things.
F) Shes a hope player (fuck these horrorterrors i'm in angel heaven)
She reminds me Mashiro Rima from Shugo Chara a lot actually.
Okay now all the players are chosen. Avid, i think the best one will be Orfeus. Like, he's very cool, and we already have a lot of guys to destroy this session; we don't need a Heir of Rage (even though orfeus' optimism scares me a lot).
So now we ned bugs. Anything to make the game harder.

Re: ΛNSΘ Session - Login
Well, how about (even though this isn't a glitch), someone ends up prototyping something incredibly powerful, thus making the game more difficult? I don't know what, but kind of like with the Sgrub session, where things like Gl'Bgolyb were prototyped.

Ugh i'm sorry, but we already have a life player. A Seer of Life. I mistook life for light in the main post, and thus we ended with two light players.

Yeah, that's a cool idea! In the original games (Sburb and Sgrub) it was the witch's job to prototype this powerful entity: Jade prototyped Bec and Feferi prototyped Glubgolyb. But here the Mage or the Sylph can do that otherwise.

Perhaps if they get the game though disks like the beta humans one chould be damaged causing a glitch
Re: ΛNSΘ Session - Login
I'll prototype an OP boyfriend XD
Uhuhuhu. But anyway all of these are good ideas, but I think that something with prospit and derse is missing. I mean I guess we should give it some attention... Self prototyping anyone?

Oh that works fine as well! Okay, changes made.
PS: Now we have a witch that'll be responsible for the session-fucker prototyping :>>>
And Bluefire, i forgot to ask you, but do you want to be responsible for the ectobiology?

That aside, here i have a list with the most "famous" diseases and player-related glitches from Sburb. Thanks to GGTG from the Glitch Faq.

Harmless Diseases wrote:
- Phrenic Phever:
A state of mental shock caused by thinking too much about prophecies, time travel and weird plot shit. A very harmless condition by itself but will cause exhaustion and add unnecessary weight on the team spirit.
Treatment: go hang out with the person and touch base. Complete some Maturity Quests together. Help the guy remember what this game is all about.
- Phantasmagoric Waltz:
Addiction to the Dream World. Named after that one song that plays forever in the Royal Ballroom, where you will often find a dream addict drifting like a zombie.
Treatment: A good whack behind the head and a tirade of pep talk. You guys need every player in the session doing their job, there’s no place for infinite dream parties.
- Post-Denizen Depression (PDD):
Exactly what it says on the tin; Post-Denizen Depression (PDD) is when a Player grieves infinitely after the Slaying Of The Beast and never completes Terraforming. The player is too fuckdeep in melancholia to go to the catacombs of the Denizen Lair, grab the Land Instrument and Wake The Land.
Treatment: Find the Denizen Lair of the grieving Player, grab the lousy instrument, go find where the Player is sulking like a crybaby, trust the Land Instrument into his/her hands and then give him/her a very stern look. If the guy still doesn’t move, usually the phrase "This isn’t what he would have wanted" does the trick.
- Pumpkin Cravings:
Madness triggered by the spatial instability of pumpkin-objects. If one of your Player seems to obsess over pumpkins, immediately destroy them when you find them. Be careful, they’re slippery. Never put them one in your Sylladex – You will never see it again.
- Clockwork Sorrow:
A state of resignation where Players give up in the face of a negative prophecy, believing that they can never defeat their fate. Treatment:Direct them to the Imperative and Priority extended chapters and make them read it.Make them talk with the Light or Time player. The Seer is also recommended.
- Walk-Stab-Walk:
Addiction to strifing. Harmless, technically, but very heavy on team relationships because of unnecessary cruelty to underlings that go hands-in-hands with this condition.
Treatment: this disorder is especially receptive to psychological support abilities, so shoot them if you can spare them. Also, the Player of Heart has exactly what is needed for this.
Dangerous Diseases wrote:
- Aggrievance:
Also known as "I have enough of this stupid game just leave me alone". Maybe with a touch of "Why don't you just go and win this pointless session while I just stand there and weep forever". In order words, flat-out refusal to play the game and total maturity shutdown. It usually stems from emotional trauma or from a minor disorder that has been left unchecked for too long. Treatment: stop listening to whatever the person has to say, grin with all your teeth, walk into the player ("hey don't touch me"), drive him/her into a corner, grab the player and cuddle the shit out that guy ("Hey leave me alone jerkface"). Continue to apply the medical procedure until the Player stops hitting you. Keep at it until the Player then starts shaking, and then starts crying, and then just hugs you back without saying a word. Proceed for an extended period of time. Then, cease treatment and don't mention it again. If the person says thank you later, act surprised, say "for what?" and change the subject.
- Player Killer (PK):
A step-up to all disorders seen so far, and others mental problems, and well, we might as well just save time and call it "players going crazy". It is not a good thing to have a PK around the block. There's only one way to deal with a PK and you already know it. Now, I know that some of you pacifists absolutely want to "reform" players that go bad. I usually try to be open about morality stuff. Really, I do. But in this case, you know what, fuck you. If you have a PK in your session, put down that clown immediately.
Personal note from GGTG: I don’t want anybody to get excited at the idea of a PK scenario because they think that a player fight would be cool. PVP fights are not the romantic duels that people make them to be. They happen in a blur. They are dirty and sad and you have to carry that weight.
- MeGaLoVania:
MeGaLoVania is the most common of the serious mental disorders in Sburb. Players afflicted with MeGaLoVania become obsessed with: "being the best" at the game, ignoring Maturity Quest, not needing to save their Land because "who cares", killing the Denizen without listening to it, not giving a shit about consorts, blatantly abusing game powers, going dungeon-diving 24/24, cheating and breaking the game to unreasonable extends and most of all, power grinding uniquely to become "the best" and then criticize anybody who is not "strong" for being "bad at the game".
In short, these guys forgot the point of the game.
Treatment: there is very little that can be done with people suffering from MeGaLoVania. All you can do it try to dump all your psychological support abilities toward their direction and cross your fingers. Also, you may want to stay with the player as much as possible. They usually turn like that because they want to prove something, and things go sour when they have something to say and no one is there to listen.
- Umbral Ultimatum:
A more advanced case of MeGaLoVania, this mental disorder is characterized by a pathological drive to keep making the game harder and harder. That is: to make it more "challenging". A bad case of the UU has dangerous chances of making a game unwinnable. This is never a good thing. If you have one of these "power gamers" in your group that is likely to poor oil on the fire just to increase the odds, then keep an eye on the person. And please, make sure that this buttlord does NOT come in contact with the genetic code of the installation/debug NPC.
- Apocryphal Antithesis:
A serious dreamself disorder that is akin to a personality split. The Apocryphal Antithesis is technically a dreamself glitch. They are usually diagnosed, and fixed, though the sleep ratio stat. In this case, the complication reaches an extreme : the player does not have a sleep ratio stat. It completely severs dreamself coordination, and the dreamself becomes... I'm not sure how to say what's wrong with it but if it was an animal, you'd take it behind the barn and shoot it with a shotgun. The big problem is that this "other you" is smart, independent and quite mad. This is a very bad combination for a game abstraction. It's also hard to deal with because you have to FIND that bugger. It might not even be in the session anymore.
Let's go over the premise in more details. Yet, it is possible for Sburb players to be missing a stat. Not having a stat normally kills you. Heck, the offensive abilities of the Void Aspect kills things by erasing their health vial stat. However, Players are not allowed to be missing a stat since it glitches game features. A stat can get lost during pre-installation; in this case, Sburb auto-detects it and tries to remedy the situation with emergency patchwork prepared in advance in the source code. For example the Player of Void often has no Mangrit stat so the game tries to fix it by writing [SO STRONG] over the Mangrit variable instead of a numeric value. Most of us are familiar with the weird shit this produces. Similarly, if a player has the misfortune of having a missing Sleep Ratio stat, the game tries to put something else in its place. Not sure what it is. The code is a garbled mess. Well whatever it is, it's shitty coding.
Treatment: This is a good deal more complicated than other disorders because it ISN'T fixed by psychological buffs. So you need to look elsewhere.The Player of Mist holds the ability to provide substance, as the opposite of Void, and can re-create a missing stat, but we're looking at something that only a high-level God Tier player could do. And even then, it's not always the best of idea. Further messing with broken stats has a good chance to glitch you into a pile of pudding. So take that option as you will.The safest way to get rid of the Apocryphal Antithesis condition is to become God Tier, as this will force the wandering dreamself back into you. But you can't really God Tier on demand. The second best cure is to learn [Dreamsoul Enabled] and merge with it, putting it out of commission until you God Tier or finish the session. But you need direct contact to go in Dreamsoul mode, and you don't have the dreamself with you to perform the ceremony to acquire it. There are still other ways to find help.The Player of Dreams deal with "order" and is your best bet to defibrillate your abormal dream behaviors, possibly disrupting the AA or weakening it. On the flip side, the Player of Rain can help understanding what the AA is doing since "madness" is Rain’s speciality.Likewise, the Player of Life’s [Return To Me] can increase the prophetic probabilities that you will meet with your shadowy self. For either good or bad.
Finally, remember that the AA is a dreamself. It has boons and weaknesses. Most importantly, it cannot rest without a bed-object. Find its bed and it will lead you to the AA. Alternatively, find where a bed-object has been stolen and you can reverse-engineer its location with the player of Space. Or you can force the AA out of hiding by threatening to become God Tier. It’s just a little hard to bluff that kind of thing since suicide is disabled in Sburb. Nevertheless, if you’re about to reach God Tier, it’s showtime. You can expect that guy to pop up to bring the whole ball down.
- Questant’s Lament:
Arguably the single worst Sburb Mental Disorder, the Questant’s Lament is when a Player becomes disillusioned with the flow of the game and wants to "join the side" of a game abstraction. In most cases, the afflicted Player is "serving" the Carapace Queen of Prospit/Derse. In some cases it can be a Denizen or Ringwraith, but the Queen is the object of veneration in 90% of choices. The Player essentially becomes a traitor, and eventually, will become a PK, all for the glory of the game abstraction they serve. In the case of Carapace Queens, Players usually call themselves the "knight”"of the Queen they serve.
Afflicted Players often claim that the Queen is issuing the orders and asked them to help "free her" from the game. I see no evidence in the game codes that Queens have the necessary scripts to perform these dialogs. However, I’ve heard from the account of several people that they have eavesdropped on secret meetings and heard these dialogs. Maybe this scenario rides on extra code lines buried in a stealth-patch or a virus? Needless to say, the major threat of this disorder, and which makes it even worse than a PK, is that the player IS COLDLY PLANNING MURDER IN THE LONG TERM. At least, PKs are predictable dickheads.
No amount of psychological buffs has ever turned around a Questant's madness. The only thing Questants will ever concede, once you subdue the players, is that you need to kill them or they'll never stop. This is known as the Lament of the Questant which named the disorder.
Prevention: If you suspect a Questant situation is about to bloom, you have one last chance to nix it in the bud. Strike a deal with the Prospit/Derse Archagent and take out the Queen. The Questant-in-the-becoming will be gloomy for the rest of the session, sure, but who cares, suicide is exile-disabled in Sburb. So get rid of that Queen; exile her or have her assassinated. Just don’t let the afflicted Player discover that you were part of the plot or else there will be hell to pay. Oh and keep an eye on the Derse Archagent, sometimes he doesn’t want to kill the Black Queen as much as he claims.
Personal note from GGTG: Contrary to popular belief, the Black Queen is not more likely to become the object of veneration of a Questant. In fact, my data says there's a slight bias towards the White Queen. As usual, the whole "Kingdom of Light" and "Kingdom of Darkness" thing means absolutely nothing in terms of actual good and evil. I think people mostly associate the Black Queen as a Questant’s symbol because of rubiconianValediction’s infamous retelling of his session where (apparently) the Prospit Players fought against the Derse Players. I’m not going to say that I believe rubiVal’s story because I can tell that it’s melodramatic horseshit. However it does allude to symptoms of the Questant’s Lament and it may be the small figment of truth that the story is based upon.
Corruption wrote:
- Spoiler:
It is debatable whether Corruption should be treated the same as other game diseases since it is obviously not intended by the game. However, I figure that it should bear an obligatory mention her for the purpose of recognizing it. The early signs of Corruption are when a fellow Player is plotting strange things that aren't related to winning the game. The player may openly admit wanting to "break" the game. At this point the person can still recover completely; the cure is usually a stern talk or a good hug. Player corruption is *not* contagious between Players.
Corruption levels can be very low and show little symptoms. However, it can still be enough to allow destroying game abstractions. It may progress slowly or spike quickly because of emotional trauma. High-level corruption is followed by glaring symptoms which I will now describe.
When the source of corruption is the Others (Horrorterrors), it is easy to diagnose at high levels. The symptoms are: dark skin, speaking complete nonsense, "dark shadows" surrounding the person, stats becoming critically high (no it's not worth it) and blacking out remote-viewing abilities in a large radius.
Angel corruption is harder to diagnose. Low-contamination players have a tendencies to speak highly of themselves, to make long flowery sentences, to see despair everywhere and imagine "salvation" in completely bonker ideas. The symptoms of high-level contamination are: a white-ish aura, raving incessantly about imminent apocalypses, stats becoming critically high (even less worth it), glitching ability casting in a wide-range and "choir singing" playing constantly to announce the person's coming. The critical-infected Players also sport a yellow halo above their head. By the way, the first thing you should do when you see that halo is to grab it and break it on your knee. No, not because it does anything important. It just feels great.
Both types of corruption are highly dangerous. Both type bestows the ability to destroy games abstraction. Both type dramatically mess up Player Stats, especially Flummoxie. In either case, advanced corruption can completely mess up a session. If you diagnose Player Corruption, please consult chapter 45 of the Serious Business section.
My opinion? I think Corruption is an obligation to our session. Since we will have the Others (HORRORTERRORS) attacking us all the time, and a planet full of Angels from our Player of Hope.
Umbral Ultimatum and Apocryphal Antithesis would be very interesting too. A Dreamself going mad and someone making the game consciently more difficult.
Some Clockwork Sorrow and Walk-Stab-Walk can be done too.
So, which glitches would you guys like to see in this session?
Oh and there is a note from the autor:
But i'll ignore this because it won't be funny otherwise.•Note: The Void Player is entirely immune to game diseases. What else isn't new, half of the game's features don't work with the Void Aspect.
