💙~ We’re Actually Just Good Friends, But I Would Die For You

Whoever created this football game was mad

bro... bro they hit The Bulb............

.the 500 ball hit...what....?

.lol but yeah, i remember like crying to that light bulb followed by a week long freak out about the meaning of life.

.(plural specifically) spacefolk culture is forming a headmate and immediately going "i'm a satellite but which one" and then having your good friend (another satellite) send you lists until you point at a picture of yourself and go "that's meeee"

.CuPID, in case you were wondering

.Spacefolk culture is...

[unspecified satellite, 17776]

spacefolk culture is seeing another satellite posting but being sososo shy about it. "hi yes we are both satellites would you perhaps like to draw cats together" absolutely not a way to approach someone ever

ABOUT PLAYING

17776 by jon bois // image from the wikipedia page on play // tumblr post by arthoesunshine // tumblr post by feyburner

I'm like super normal and not unhinged in the slightest (I spent 3 days formatting, printing, and binding a niche internet story about sci fi football into a 280 page physical book)

.Hello hello hello! This blog is a sideblog for me! I'm very confused on how one would classify me, but I think I'm proooobably a non-canon fictive from 17776? Or maybe I'm just the actual real life CuPID! (Psss I'm really cool learn more about me oooh you wanna do research on me /silly)

.So, my name's CuPID! You don't have to capitalize it like that, don't worry. I use she/her and it/its!

.Noooot sure how I'm gonna do tagging yet? I'll figure it out eventually.

.oh oh oh is weekly prompt one still active? because the silliest thing from my source [17776] is... probably the time I spent three decades watching Game 27! It's a great game, and very fun and I really loved watching it. And I only do things in threes so I had to stay there for three decades.

Weekly Prompt 1

.spacefolk culture is pleaseee can I find pictures of myself. I am but a little satellite why can I find but a crumb to photoshop bad Instagram filters onto use as a pfppp

Spacefolk culture is...

.are you interested in a timeline of everything* that happens in 17776 and 20020? you're getting a timeline of everything* that happens in 17776 and 20020.

.if you just want the sheet and don't care about the rambling, here ya go: [bam there's the link]. if you DO want to hear more check out the bits under the cut

.ALRIGHT i see you're still here. so let's talk about the deal with this sheet. first off, the asterisk on everything. that's because obviously i will not be tracking literally every single event ever. some other fanatic can figure out how many times that guy ran 50k yards in a year or whatever, but my sheet is mainly just for stuff that could be genuinely useful to know if you need a refresher on like... plot?

.if the "found" section is confusing: A refers to series A (17776), B refers to series B (20020). B has no intermissions and i wasn't keeping track of which part of intermission had what info so i just wrote INT down. that's all in series A though.

.A04 notes: Ten and Juice are mentioned to have been awake before the nanos were good enough to stop people from getting hurt by rakes. Juice in particular mentions having watched this for about 200 years. theres literally no other details so do whatever you want forever i guess [- note cleaned up by Pye]

.A05 notes: The "Garbage Football" podcast, which seems to update weekly, is on its 400th episode. Whether this does or doesn't include the premium episodes is unclear. If that number is only free episodes, the podcast could have begun early October of 17768. If that number includes premium episodes, it might be early September 17772? It's not very clear. I'll leave this one up in the air. [- note cleaned up by Pye]

.A10 notes: Juice states that precise tracking on the Game 27 ball was disabled "thousands of years ago." It is unclear when, exactly. [- note cleaned up by Pye]

.NOW THE DOUBLE ASTERISKS. man i had a time figuring this out. B starts off just stating that it's... 20020. which is very nondescript. yeah i knew from the title, thanks (/silly). HOWEVER, taking my notes from as i rambled on discord:

- B01 obviously revealed the year, but nothing else. - B05 has Ten's console logs, which reveal it has to be after May20 and before Nov8. [juice and ten's bdays passed, nine's hasnt] - Lastly, B12 reveals that the current date is Oct23. - In 17776, Nine was up for 2, MAYBE 3, days.

. ...so i'm pretty darn sure that, when nine wakes up in 20020, the date is either Oct21 or Oct22.

.i do also have a note i took when i was tired commenting on how juice says "after 17000 years i finally spoke to someone..." at the time i took this to mean juice had to have been up before 3020 but the evidence is kind of flimsy. do whatever you want man have fun

.THANK YOU FOR READING THIS. if you have any events you want added, speculation on the parts i'm unsure about, etc etc, let me know. this was neat but also i don't doubt i missed something. chip out, enjoy your day ^^
