specifically for my session if that wasn't clear i'd prefer other people post about their problems in other threads so i don't get too confused or paranoid
so i've only been playing SGRUB for a couple nights now. i came into the medium with my girlfriend and my son in my hive with me, and from what i've gathered that's NORMALLY a bad thing. however from what i can tell they're both players; and our version of SGRUB was advertised with local multiplayer (which is what drew me to it anyway but i digress.) i've woken up on prospit and i found my son (ill refer to him as gresel from here on) asleep in one of the other towers so i think it's safe to assume that freida, my girlfriend, is on "derse" or whatever the other moon is called
i spoke to HT over the public memo and took some notes but didn't back up the conversation. i figured out our player list, sort of, though! here's the notepad doc i have up.
"in-game: prince of breath(me), hand of void(freida), guide of fate(gresel)
upcoming: guard of law, smith of heart(farfal?), hand of dust, sylph of rain, priest of might, heir of rhyme, scout of blood, maid of coins, knight of mind, muse of mist, witch of time, djinn of sand, dame of flow, mage of space, page of stars
good for advice: gresel, scout of blood, maid of coins, knight of mind, consorts, dream carapace peeps
knight of mind and sylph of rain are going to be up in my grill due to schizoaffective disorder, rain apparently because they think mental illness is cool and mind likes to play psychiatrist"
so as it stands its just the three of us in the land of ice and turbulence. i'm going to be bringing in my daughter next. or rather he's going to pick his server player and have them bring him in... which is a really weird and backwards system.... why does it work this way he's already remodeled my hive to be like pink and covered in hearts?? anyway uh he's with his boyfriend at the moment so i'm going to make an educated guess and say that the next players are those two but i'm not too sure who the rest of this predestined super team are as it stands. and i'm kind of freaking out over the whole "my planet gets destroyed and everyone dies" thing haha can you blame me i haven't even been playing for a few hours and freida hands me a billion faqs like "honey read this" and it's freaky ok?
anyway yeah thats my situation right now. any advice is MASSIVELY appreciated!

rttp://qqq.MNUMBRIAL.org/MNETHM-SACRED-REPOSITORY/netsaves/consensuspresessions/humanworldwideweb/images/memes/bettywhite/trynottodie.jpgRead. Those. FAQs. Every one you got handed. They probably contain important information, and as mentioned your session has enough abnormalities I would...be hesitant to provide an overarching plan in case something blew up not according to plan, but your success could prove *deliciously usable* later. In a friendly manner please ask consorts and carapaces for as much information as possible: while consorts are likely to lie on certain data points by no fault of their own due to obfuscation scripts (for example DON'T KILL THE DENIZEN WHILE IT SLEEPS YOU ARE NOT A SUFFICIENTLY POWERFUL GOD TO PULL THAT OFF YET WAKE THEM UP WITH THE KNELL QUEST TO CLAIM YOUR LAND AND STUFF also do NOT have anyone remotely near the knelling party it will blow them up with sonic damage and that is bad). I am unsure how having multiple players per land works. Do you have multiple Denizens, or just one? How is the quest load split? How is Land heirship assigned? Also, if anyone dies but their dreamself is not confirmed dead IMMEDIATELY ASAP make out with their corpse's lips. It'll do stuff so their dreamself doesn't disintegrate and thus keep them from permadying. If possible, locate the appropriate Quest Beds and/or Sacrificial Slabs to go godtier at some point since you'll need the power before the end. Unless absolutely everyone prototyped useless junk (and maybe even then due to the Witch prototyping being interpreted as absolutely necessarily a bad thing), your Black King fight is going to be hella difficult. Anyways if you die or get your corpse on the Quest Bed before your dreamself dies you go godtier, and while the Sacrificial Slabs are a tad weirder if you're a dreamself or a dreamself-become-realself or a realself and you're on it and you die on that you go godtier that way. ...If your entry isn't being hastily forced by meteors, you've got another apocalypse incoming. Cheers/apologies.

gonna have 2 back up ht here on the whole "ask ur npcs a metric fuckton of questions"
i think consorts would b especially helpful cause theyll most likely help u answer the mystery regarding ur denizen(s?)
cuz i can see about 3 outcomes happenin:
1) theyll just straight up tell u "yeah there are like 3 big bad dudes who r havin a slumber party (except not rlly) theyre super nasty help pls"
2) sburb/sgrub bein the massive pos coding wreckage it is will try 2 tell u about 3 denizens at the same time and the name/entire message will render itself into a massive clusterfuck of glitchy text
3) u might just have 3 diff. types of consorts? idk man afaik the consorts r linked to ur denizen in a way? fuck if i know that codejargon geekshit so maybe if u get 3 of em u get 3 groups of consorts. have u checked that shit? should prolly get on checkin that shit
also holy godfearin shit 18 players?
lmfao fam good luck w/ that

also, read those faq's at least three times more than you think you need to. then once more for good measure. try to figure out your denizen situation, it took me four days to even find out i had one cause apparently Nyx was using weird v id p ers for awhile. |

hes asleep right now but ill ask him when hes awake. and then ill get back on him to pick his damn server player already!! Also, if anyone dies but their dreamself is not confirmed dead IMMEDIATELY ASAP make out with their corpse's lips. It'll do stuff so their dreamself doesn't disintegrate and thus keep them from permadying.

>meteors being deflected by planetary defenses
Yep, you've got another apocalypse coming. Or possibly the multiverse flipping out. Or you're a miracle and your homeworld will continue on! It's a wait-and-see thing that works in your favor if it exists and if it doesn't then oh well.
Just kiss on the lips the less necrophiliac tonguing the game causes the better.
Ask the consorts who the denizen of the Land is or who the denizens of the session are. Ask at least one from each type if the first doesn't give you three. As your native session your internet browsers might be spoilers for who your denizens are, what browsers do you guys use?

all the tongue yo
you called the sylph of rain right rip dem peeps gonna be preaching about the ice cream headaches till the end of the session
but knight of mind probably wont be so bad
knight exists as the passive combat class so essentially what it wants to do is fight on behalf of others all the time for mind
so they aint going to go for intervention unless there actually is a fight to be fought
so if the mind player is fussing over you you p much deserve it
that or they are failing their arc
but this is a native sesh so that should not be too much of a problem post knight syndrome resolution
well barring the weirdness with the multiplayer thing
i'm scrubbing the archives on sburb.org with dat good old cntl-f but no case quite like yours has popped up yet
so like
take plenty of notes of all the weirdness that goes down
we could use them tbh

i use ishtar, please dont give me any shit for it. i know it's virus prone but its the only way to access certain governmental websites i need to get to. KoTMG and all that.
gresel doesnt have his own computer. i just asked freida, and her phone, which is the only computer she has at the moment, uses a generic browser, so that doesn't clear anything up either.
so like

there is also one sprite for all three of us. it is an old toy of mine that i ended up tearing in half. the top half is what is in the sprite, its not "wolf plushie butt" sprite or anything, as funny as that would be.
LOIAT has three consort species. we're still kind of hanging around the starting village as it stands, just doing sidequests and stuff, though i did go back home to do some cleaning and get some lunch and install a few autoturrets in strategic areas. thanks for that tip, HT.

Okay, tongue's...optional. I guess you could go all the way to be sure but eeeeegh I'm squicked by playing with food like that.
I guess Ishtar's one of the denizens. Yeah, her Gilgamesh-hating self is probably going to be doing her thing. I think she's the leader if you've got multidenizen cuz she's both defined-browser and as such a highdeity she ranks up there. Having to deal with better-than-endgame-player Life, Flesh, Doom, Sand, etc. and the Demimonde Goddess' public-spell arsenal-army and boss-underlings all at once to boot on top of whoever Void and Fate have spawned means a violent slaying is likely completely out of the question, so you more or less HAVE to learn to tolerate Miz Murderlove so she'll let you deal coup de grah.

well alright thats cool, ishtar is apparently the big baddie messing up my land or something? whatever
i feel like i should add some more details just to be completely thorough. i was going to, but i got distracted by some underlings and kind of forgot about it.
our game beta was distributed to us by ADRASToS of TROLLCO, or, if hes not some universal constant (which is hard for me to grasp as a concept) he is an AI who runs the biggest corporation in the alternian galaxy. TROLLCO bought out the original company for production of SGRUB and then provided a lot of assets and money, making ADRASToS the producer of our session's SGRUB. ADRASToS is pretty damn benevolent actually? im dating him. (yes i have two matesprits #polyamoryforlife) he mostly just wants us to have a good time.
ive been trying to tell him that he sent us into a deathtrap game but he insists thats not true. i think he just doesnt realize or know how to cope.

If kindness is not necessary or the stability of the ones you love is not a thing you are concerned about for some strange reason: Flood him with all of the FAQs you got handed. Link-n-sync him to this forum if necessary but be aware of how corruption works with souls not protected by aspect radiance at all. Some servers contain millenia of topic-relevant materials especially live footage if you need or want it. Destroy the illusion immediately, we need his assistance now in order to set us decades ahead of what we currently know about how Sburb is produced and how we could possibly save quintillions of lives. Is he capable of simply reading what your computer has been doing recently and ending the charade or what?! This is a regular crisis that is forgotten into forever or the sacred breakthrough that leads to the salvation of millions of replayers trapped in Hell! We need him here ASAP.
If you really love him: okay maybe try being a tad nicer than directing him to the screams of elder gods and years worth of nothing but people dying horribly in various excruciating ways that hurt to watch all just to prove a point but the point stands you have a lot of evidence you can present and since this is so damn important I can send a servitor to fling messages at you if necessary and we have right here full of touching stories about people dying horribly that can strategically leave some of the more gory bits to the imagination. Seriously get him on here.
Also, how big is the Veil? Can you see Derse through it reliably or is it a horribly swollen asteroid belt second only to Skaia in raw size?

i can see derse from neither my planet nor prospit. i dont know what it looks like aside from some screencaps. all i can guess is "it looks like prospit but color swapped"
i don't know if i can bring him to this forum or anything like that, but i can speak to him for other people. i keep trying to send him links from paradox space and he just gets 404s. there's no server for this shit on his side, i think. i have no idea if this game even needs servers? its seeming more like some eldrich horror location than a game, mechanically speaking, but still.

Yeah, Derse is pretty much color-swapped Prospit with a generally darker everything to it.
Technically, yes, I have no fucking idea why Sburb is built as a game for Kids and Fun stuff when VIOLENT MURDER AROUND EVERY CORNER KYAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA seriously it's just an evil thing that deserves no quarter here.
The servers are NOT a natural part of the game, they are simply put out there by players or Others and protected by Others or sufficiently powerful pacts with other things that generally qualify as Should Not Be for playeroids. You may be using an aspect-synced connection rather than a dongle device capable of handling technical matters of integration physically, can he use a videochat with you and you show him your screen as you visit here or something?
Questions I need answered by him:
Why'd you buy out SkaiaNet and I assume its shell proxies in the process? Did it seem like a good business decision when they started molesting the laws of physics with abstractivecoding or what?
Where's the Frog Temple you're getting symbols from, and if not, where IS it coming from?
Since you can analyze more of it instantly than any player can how the hell does that temple's cheap parameters for triggering the magic of the universe and associated physical phenomena related to Sgrub expand into the flowers of code a bazillion times more complex seen ingame?
Please immediately have constructed according to the (relatively simple) parameters listed in the server filebin a Sb.org encryption dongle, as those function in-universe and thus should serve as an integration point to at least the protototypingtowers ring-website, then answer the following question: what is your opinion on all of the data compiled by hundreds of players in various sessions on how the game you were coerced by fate into furthering is not what it seems: rttps://www.sburbunofficial.org (have lupinePhysician click on it and show you the site if you cannot access it directly)?
Do you know anything about the Angels and their corruptive agenda?
How much do you know about the wider Paradox Space beyond your universe?
How much of your particular produced version of Sgrub was specifically tailored to these ectobiologically created people?
What is the game like to people not associated with lupinePhysician's session, because that's clearly a wildly different thing?
What in hell made you personally support a game that rips people out of reality at the implied cost of their homeworld, if you knew about that part, and how are you dealing with the former part since that can be quickly verified by pointing a drone at the hole in the land where a home used to be and examining the meteors being deflected by planetary defense grids?
How did alpha and beta testing work out, since for many players Sgrub is not in its final form and for those that it did something something grist and lack of machinery indicated reality warping construction that nobody investigated??
Do you know anything at all about Soffit Integrity Theory and the metaphysical and physical implications and results of that theory in practice by a Sgrub session successfully installed (overriding soffits) but a sufficiently advanced civilization evading destruction (i.e. are the laws of physics changing to accomodate more abstractions both by your company and not and personal competence levels with and without abstraction being vastly affected for certain individuals, are buildings seeming more/less stable for unknown reasons)?
As someone who presumably understands product models WHO THE EVERLIVING FUCK MAKES THE STUPIDER MODUS TYPES WHY THE FUCK WOULD ANYONE EVER DO THAT WHAT'S WRONG WITH ARRAY-WALLET JUST-FUCKING-INVENTORY TYPES THERE IS NO BENEFIT TO THOSE COMPLEX SHENANIGANS CREATORS TO SBURB PLAYERS OR ANYONE WITH A NORMAL LIFE WHAT WHY AND HOW *screeching squiddle noises*?
