Glitch Urban Legends

A friend of a friend heard this from their neighbor's Fruit Tree one Fryday morning, many years ago...

Since it's that time of year, and we were talking about it in global, let's create some Glitch spooky stories and urban legends!

1. What happens when you set a cubimal free?
Well first off, you'll get iMG and good feelings as you've set them free with love, and possibly an achievement if you've let enough go. But afterwards, we don't really know - their data fades away to wherever data goes, and unfortunately... they are never seen again. However, it's said if you wander to the ends of the world, you may hear their voices calling for you and may see the text that [someone's cubimal] went [unknown symbols] planks before stopping. :o :o Maybe they miss you, and your love, and wish to see you again! But if you keep following the text, you too will disappear. If a cubimal appears... don't touch it.

...And one more thing. Once in a while, there's an option to set them free, with scorn but never, ever, ever(!!!!) choose this option.

2. It's said that if you roll a Rook dice, somewhere on Urth a Glitchen immediately falls into a mysterious seam. No one really knows what's in this seam, but those who return from it can't recall a thing. However their mood remains high, and if they check they'll find a strange piece of rock in their bag. If you look at it too long, your mood starts to drop. You must stop looking.

  • I was told by a more experienced player once that there's a secret street somewhere with a swimming pool that is exclusively for level 60 Glitches.

    Also, the Other Drop used to have an elevator for coming back up, but when a cave-in trapped a group of Zillot miners and no one would give them Random Kindnesses to keep their spirits up, they cursed it and it broke.  You can see its ruins if you can go far enough to the right.

    Finally, the Rook can follow you to your home street.  And if you let him into your house, he'll never go away!

  • Nice ones! The cursed miners/broken elevator of Other Drop is sad, I like it. What a cruel time, not to get Random Kindness.

  • "But if we give them to you right now, it wouldn't really be Random, would it?"

  • That's what they said.

    Another one.  Rumor has it that if you get a deimaginator and the Rook into the same street together, it unlocks the boss level, where Stoot Barfield keeps all his cool toys and one or two interns.

  • I heard the Juju Bandits are part of a syndicate under the Rube, trying to get back at players who get the best of him in trades.
