This is me at a Wendy's with a few of my friends in December of 2007.
Dream of Playing a Game
I had a dream I was a character in a game… I’m not sure what game this was, but it was an RPG, because in this game I started dating a woman of level 6!
At the time, I was level 65 or so, and was playing in a high level area when she had started running by. We turned to look at each other and put out our arms… because if you do that, you can see what level somebody is. It didn’t work at first. So we just chatted… we’re going to go kill the same boss.. so we teamed up to take it down.
Then as we’re traveling to the boss, I put my arm out again and see that she’s a level 6! So I figure she can’t do anything productive against the boss and I asked her what she’s doing here.
“Just rushing through,” she says… Someone was rushing her through the game. But had stopped by the time she got to the point where we met. So I told her I’d help rush her through the other parts of the game. But first we needed a break.
For some reason, there was a couch and tv not far from where we were and we went and curled up next to each other on the couch and watched tv for a few minutes. Not long after our recuperation, someone ran by saying the boss is going to be released soon. That’s the end of the game!
We got up to go and headed to the boss’ chamber, which is basically this huge room about 150 ft wide by 100 ft high, and 400 ft long, with stairs leading up to a portal–where the main boss eventually exits into our world.
There were a lot of other characters there that were going to fight him too. But before we can dare fight the main boss, we must first defeat his many minions… flying wraiths that fire a pink lightning stream and axe-weilding demons…
We knew we couldn’t do it by ourselves, nor with the help of the many people in the chamber, so we left the chamber in search of more people.
That night, we were hanging out at my house and we looked out the window to see a bunch of kids playing soccer in the street. And for some reason, my dad was mowing the neighbor’s lawn acoss the street. But anyway, we decided to tackle this boss after a good night’s sleep.
The next morning we wake up and head over to the bosses chamber. We started walking up the hallway to the portals. The portals take us to his chamber, but each portal is different because it is a new instance of the chamber, so different people can enter different portals, and only the people that entered the same portal as you would be in the same chamber.
So as we were walking up the hallway, she took out this pen from her pocket and gave it to me. It had many inscriptions on the side of it that held a blue and green glow. She told me it’s a “decoder”–a cheat for the game. She told me that after I enter the chamber with the decoder, I will be able to defeat the boss single-handedly. Then she said, “We’re taking different portals.”
I didn’t get a chance to ask her why since she had just entered a portal.. I decided to do what she said and enter a different portal. There were 3 other people in my chamber that were going to defeat the boss. I partied up with them and I ran up the stairs to where the demons and wraiths were about to splurge out from. About 5-6 came at first, and a wraith came up to me and started casting pink lightning, so I ran back to the group.
One of the demons asked his buddies, “What can we do about his forcefield?” As it turns out, one of my party members had the ability to cast a forcefield around him and his party members. We took a corner and he put up the forcefield. Pink lightning couldn’t penetrate..
But then, my decoder went off! I could feel it in my pocket… Portals started opening up in the chamber that were different paths that lead to the boss in his own lair.
My group members started talking about how awesome it was that there were these portals opening up, and we all decided to take the one closest to us.
I was second to try to enter the portal. As soon as I entered the portal, everything went gray and a small text message stated, “Banned Account”.
I was banned for using the decoder! Son of a
