EB: every time people complain about my daughter casey’s gay dads, i am adding another dad to the collection. she has 6 dads so far.

Another in the tarot card set!

been playing minestuck with wife (she's never heard of homestuck) and it's fun seeing her confused about all the random complicated bullshit like the alchemy system or captchaloging things

also she put a cruxtruder on my roof

Cross-session

A very normal conversation between two capable individuals (@heuristicallyinclined and @cornerofmybookshelf )

Knight vs Knight violence ( me and @shadowdemon101​ )

love god teir designs that alter the players appearances (light players getting halos, hope players getting bird wings, mind players getting third eyes, life players growing plants from their hair ext...)

fuck therapy, write self-fanfiction about your system playing sburb and getting separate bodies thanks to god-tiering

[Image description: the epic handshake meme. The left arm is labeled "Xi Shiyong." The right arm is labeled "John Egbert." Their handshake is labeled "Becoming the godlike living embodiment of freedom and ending his story alone and mourning the one person he couldn't save despite all his endless power." End description].

I was going to make a much longer post about this, but my feelings about both characters are frankly Too Big to be concise in any format other than memes.

Anyway, I sure do love a protagonist from a normal happy home that unintentionally fumbles his way into becoming the Unbound God of Perfect Freedom and compartmentalizes all his feelings about being no longer human so hard he doesn't even realize he's having them. Love a guy that rewrites his very universe through a cheat code power that only he has and feels incredibly alone in the happy ending he creates. Love a story about grief. Love a guy that never lets anyone in because playing the lighthearted jokester is all he's ever known and he simply cannot stop doing so.

Though only Shiyong is actually good at pranks.

I don't see enough Prospit/Derse theories and headcanons so I am putting forward my hc that all Prospits are freaks. Fucking insane people. I'm talking recreational cannibalism and taxidermy (real and canon) and weirdass moral standards and complex human dissections and hunting people for sport, Prospits are fun, bubbly and outgoing but also eat raw meat sometimes. Their moon is pretty and nice, but there are ritual sacrifices every tuesday. Dersits are role-playing noir movies and playing poker to the banger song glory box by portishead, while Prospits are in permanent state in-between trickster mode and whatever the fuck loonaverse had going on. They will automatically lose to Derse in every session so the game decided to let them have fun, eat cake and be crazy.

Been a while, hasn't it? First Guardian revelations aside, we haven't learned much since last time, so let's just ramble for a bit.

It's something huge, I know that much. Sburb acts on a cosmic scale, infecting entire planets to achieve... whatever it's trying to achieve. The story has been deliberately vague on the details, but I do think I've picked up on the occasional hint or two.

I've talked before about how a lot of Sburb's objectives seem to have something to do with terraforming. John's Quest is to manipulate the weather patterns on his Land, and Rose's is, essentially, to craft an entirely new biosphere for hers. They may not have realized it yet, but these kids are being taught to manipulate planets.

Sburb seems to place a lot of importance on teaching Players to sculpt their Lands, which are essentially mini-planets already. We still haven't learned what the Ultimate Alchemy is, and back in my big theory post, a planet was one of my guesses...

This does seem to fit the facts pretty well, but I just don't see what the game gets out of the deal. Sure, it means another session factory, but it's already converted Earth into one of those! Plus, session factories cannot be the end goal, here. That's not a purpose, that's just the mechanism to achieve the purpose.

So that's the progress I've made, since I last posted about this. I think that if you win Sburb, you might start to create and manipulate a planet, but I think that's just a step towards the goal, and not the goal itself.

Oh, and let's not forget that whoever created Sburb was comfortable with exterminating civilizations. The game does not care about us, and no matter what its ultimate purpose is, we should be very, very worried about it.

happy 4/13 here's my SBURB death lol

Hey there, groovyMoonbird again (currently a mage of hope, whats with the hope class)

I talked a bit about this last time ( i apologize about the radical change in tone during that post i figured out a bit back how to make alcohol using some berries i alchemized)

Dont know how long its been for you but its been around 3 months for me since the end of my last session

Ive found myself here alone in this session, as far as i can tell and what youve told me, i either have a solo session or based on what i know about the void class a missing player, but even void doesn't quite line up with some of this

I went ahead and checked a few dungeons before i found a duo-dungeon

Its not blank persay, as it has a large square as the secondary symbol, not sure what this could indicate

Far more alarming however is that my denizen is also gone, im having large stretches where my memory blanks (even when i dont drink) and i continue to be normal blind in my fucked up eye

Said fuck it and went to challenge my denizen in a half drunken rage only to find nothing, everything has been looted and cleared out

Land is nothing special as far as i can tell (land of bushes and swamps)

The reason im so concerned is that i haven't slept at all since starting this session and staring at the square on dungeons makes my teeth hurt and fills my mouth with a sugary saliva , so im certain that i have a doppelganger situation occurring

The consorts are addressing me as two people now

Im afraid that something is very very wrong with this session

Wait, groovyMoonbird, you were the anon stuck in the solo session? Right after getting noclipped into the Furthest Ring? I think you have the worst luck I've ever seen in my life, given the frequency with which you find yourself in improbable situations. Do yourself a favor and please contact a gamebreaking community at some point, I'm sure they'll love you, and also have zillions of questions.

A Saccharine Doppleganger may be possible, if you're experiencing sudden sugar tastings (or sympathetic sugar rushes, which might be contributing to any pain or black-outs), but a lot of this behavior doesn't line up with what scant reports of Saccharine Dopplegangers that exist. While they are copies of you, they aren't player entities. I'm pretty sure the Consorts shouldn't be acknowledging them, and the game registering them another player and generating a false Aspect for them is just straight-up impossible. Killing the denizen is also highly unusual behavior, they usually just shittify your house by making thousands of Fancy Santas, and then they track you down and do something unspeakable to you. Speaking of which, if you can get to an Alchemiter, JPG-ify your gun. Saccharine Dopplegangers tend to make Zilly equipment, and Artifact is the only hard counter to that kind of stuff. It will be a janky-ass gun you probably can't even hold correctly, but that will be your best tool in the fight. I want you to know I'm being sincere right now, this isn't a prank.

Now here's the bad news. Without your Denizen, you're kind of fucked. I once again don't think the Saccharine Doppleganger killed it, but point is, they're pretty useful when you're completely lost up Poop Creek without a paddle, or a boat. The good news is, we don't actually know what happened to it. It could have just not spawned because not all players are in the session yet. It could just be hiding and fucking with you. After you're done mopping up the Candy Thing, I'd reccomend scouring for any signs of the potential missing players. The Duo Dungeon is a lead, but there's also the Dream Moons and any SBURB-related forums on Earth (or whatever planet you came from), assuming you haven't 100% confirmed that Earth is 100% destroyed.

You survived too much for some sort of Void Session to kill you. Fight on, groovyMoonbird!

Alright gang how fucked is my friend group.

Its funny how people claim that Sburb is evil even though most of the horrid stuff can be linked back to Caliborn. Tbh, I always got the feeling that if Sburb was a person, it would be the most tired, frustrated DM in existence. Like think about it, Sburb's entire goal is making new universes, right? In order to make one universe, it took six sessions, two scratches, two timelines, and two universes dying, one of which had cancer. Sburb is in the red here.

.

And essentially, here's an sburb for dummies crash course on prototyping your kernelsprite, and ascension to God tier.

If anyone wants to add on; go ahead.
