What the fuck am I looking at?

    The internet.

    I don't see any reason to attribute that to the submitter, though they may need a lesson in how much moderation work it is to host user-generated content.

  • floatingatoll 7 years ago

    User-contributed content, and a site operator who either endorsed these beliefs and/or believes in unmoderated free speech and/or is altogether unaware. Seems likely they’re aware, since they’re the submitter of the post, but @aehtyb, FYI if not!

    The expressed volition of an international crowd brought together by a free uncensored Internet that doesn't incentivize good behaviour vs trolling.

The first room is obviously already filled. Each character formatted as a link is a door to a subroom : CTRL+ENTER to go to this room. ESC to go back. If you find some white space, you can type a character which will be unformatted. Move cursor to an unformatted character and use CTRL+SHIFT+Enter to make it a link to a new empty room.

Check the source for instructions: ctrl+enter will follow a link character, esc moves back one room, ctrl+shift+enter creates a room. So cool B)

People are editing the js file to bypass checks lol (like overwriting cells with links in them)

I thought this was an autostereogram adventure game and spent the first 10 seconds cross-eyed.

This was the most fun emergent web experience I've had in awhile. RIP Uppercase C

Really cool game, just had a chat with a few people in the first sub-room :p

  • camtarn 7 years ago

    Ah-hah. You may have been one of the anonymous two people I was chatting to :)

    Were you the person who was trying to claim a piece of territory as their own?

    Fascinating social experiment: when faced with a blank slate, what do humans do? Some converse, but others decide they need to claim a piece of that slate as solely theirs...

    • kreetx 7 years ago

      Late reply -- yes that was me :p

      It was truly fun, with the right creativity it seems so easy to make something simple but addictive.

  • golergka 7 years ago

    By the first chat-room, did you mean the rabbit hole that opens if you always open the first letter? Because this thing is still going and have gotten surprisingly interesting.

    • camtarn 7 years ago

      Oh, wow.

      None of that was there when I posted.

      I got to the milestone that said "YOU ARE ONLY 1% OF THE WAY THROUGH" and stopped...
