Through the Living Hopper

Gasp! @PanLin A personal attack! I really like this theory. It's been proposed many times in slightly different ways, but I think yours especially is what Brandon intended. Simple, yet complex enough for varied interactions.

That was an amazing game. @The Unknown Medallion & @Wahrheitswächter, great job. I don't know which of you came up with that, but it was great.

A planet near the supernova. I don't think we gave it a name.

You aren't

I just can't really do anything right now (unless you let me have those people!).

I read anything that I wrote more than a year ago (other than one exception that's a prologue I wrote and is still my favorite thing I've ever written) and want to die. It's so bad. 76

The person I thought was the Vessel of Cultivation. See edit.

Cultivation/Koravellium?

Huqin?

The Nightwatcher?

It's been a long time since I've done a recap, but some highlights: See How They Run, by James Patterson Interesting story, but something about it felt a little off. Okay read, but not one I would recommend to a friend. Ready Player One, by Ernest Cline This is the opposite. This will probably be the first book I recommend to people after Jurassic Park. The Martian, by Andy Weir I've heard some bad things about this book, but I was pleasantly surprised. Mark Whatney is funny, interesting, and even though I've seen the movie, this book held my interest. If I know the person is okay with language, then this is a definite recommendation. Such a great book with moderately real science. Artemis, by Andy Weir Not nearly as good as his other two books, but a fun read. I don't really have anything to say about this one. Eh. I liked it, but I probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless they like North Pole's Eleven. (Because the moon might have had an ocean on its North Pole). Red Rising and Golden Son, by Pierce Brown A masterfully written story about a slave class trying to rise up. A solid sci-fi (really just fi, there's not a lot of science in these books) tale that I'll probably recommend. Currently Reading: Dungeon Crawler Carl series, by Matt Diniman. I figured I'd give this a try, and it was worth it! Funny and weirdly heartwarming (sometimes over a fire), this book has most of what you need for a great story: a very relatable protagonist with a fun sidekick, a very definite goal, and tons of gore. Probably not one I'd recommend, but by no fault of the book, it's just very adult.

That scan was the cycle before I died. I forgot I had a role before then, because I was vanilla in the psuedo-game.

I scanned Striker and was told only that he was a Newbie (in black text).

Only Striker as a Newbie.

Patji?

Since I'm only alive in the Psuedo-game, can I still talk in the Meta-game when the Psuedo is over?

There's no set time, but in general try to avoid it after 2 months. Welcome to the Shard! You've arrived at the best place on the Internet, filled with the best people, the best desserts, and the best murderous animals! Here are a couple of tips to help you settle in to your new place as a cog in the Grand Apparatus that is the Shard: 1. Join S(anderson) E(limination). 2. Familiarize yourself with the most important forums: SE, Cosmere Q&A, and SE. 3. Tell us which books you have and haven't read (this helps us avoid spoilers) 4. HAVE FUN! Make friends! 5.
