I never really got any feedback, how was my CoD creepypasta?
[QUOTE=Man in the Moon;34052300]Is anyone else ridiculously sick of the "troll pasta" shit?[/QUOTE]
We have actually agreed that we won't do those [I][U]ever [/U][/I]again because it have ruined last two threads
People just don't care
I remember doing the usual "try to trick your friend into believing a bogus glitch/easter egg" to a friend about a year after Perfect Dark was released. I basically said something like "If you push the right buttons fast enough on the main menu, you can unlock a majority of the characters from Goldeneye". So, more or less jokingly, he just started spamming random buttons for a bit and made the menu go crazy before I laughed and told him I was joking. All in good fun and all that, and I think he had to go home around that time.
Shortly after he left, I went back to the game to play a bit, only to find out that he somehow managed to delete my only save completely on accident with his button mashing. A save which had about 150 hours logged on it with almost all cheats legitimately unlocked, all levels completed on Perfect Agent and a fair few on Dark Agent and basically everything in multiplayer unlocked. I think I wanted to punch myself much more than I wanted to punch him.
The moral of the story is that karma is a bitch that you shouldn't fuck with (Because making up an in-game easter-egg is serious business). That, or some higher power will probably at some point tell you to get a life and stop playing video games so much in some way. Either way, I don't think I ever tried doing the "false game rumor" thing again.

There, I made it a creepypasta.

Quite Intresting
Adding "Primordial Dream" to the [URL="https://www.dropbox.com/s/iuc4g6h1irku20j/Creepypasta.pdf"]collection[/URL]
I loved that story, but couldn't find it, thanks
The I have no mouth and I must scream one was kind of freaky, but I suspected the ending some chapters before it happened.
The whole [sp]therapy session[/sp] thing of the later part of the pasta was good, but the part I enjoyed most was the first part where they're all in the underground facility.
Wrote this awhile ago, hope you enjoy it.
[quote]You know those eerie feelings you get when you are playing a multilayer game and there is no one on the server, apart from you?
For instance boot up Minecraft right now and scope around for some deserted server that is running, but no one is on.
Feels pretty weird right? Well this is what my hobby was, going around to these barely running games and seeing what people had left behind, not just Minecraft either. Counterstrike, Team Fortress 2, World of Warcraft. I used all of these games to explore the special servers nearly every day. I logged down what was on them: buildings, maps, announcements and then my friend would come along and wipe/build on what I had logged in. I would get paid about $50 for every server I cleared, depending on the size.
So anyway, I'm sitting there sipping on a coke when my unnamed friend (due to security reasons) rings me up over Steam and says that there is this really big Indie game map that was just abandoned and he wanted me to check it out. He also mentioned that the map was larger than normal, so he would pay me around $100. So, I accepted and went to download the client. It was an old website the design was pretty poor and it didn't look very popular, so I speculated that he wanted me to just see if it was working. So I created an account and booted up the game. It looked normal enough, sort of like Second Life, that game where you play as yourself and run around and buy/build stuff.
So I started at the server maintenance screen and went over some of the hosting stats and found that the server was being run from a single tower that had a proxy. I couldn't list the location to get a proper ping to report to my friend, but since he was probably going to delete it, I guessed I would just make it up. I scanned over the other active servers and it seemed like the only active one was this one. He was probably going to wipe it and demolish the company project, so I guessed that's why I'm getting such a big bonus for it.
I logged into the server and the loading screen came up: hints, a bar and some pictures of people playing. The usual. After the screen had completed, my avatar was dropped into a little forest, what I assumed would be outside of any main city or town. So, I walked forward hoping that some sort of tutorial would guide me around but nothing happened. The graphics were quite advanced for a game its age, the forest spanned for ages and the trees were like that of Elwynn Forest of WoW. I told all of this to my friend as we kept the channel open for fast information.
After walking around in the forest for about twenty minutes, I came to a bigger than normal tree. It had this big door on the front of it that looked as if it had been carved into the wood by hand, kind of like the ones of Nightmare Before Christmas. But, anyway, the cursor came up with a interaction symbol and then the screen went black and my voice channel cut out. There was no loading screen, only the sounds of the poorly looped 8 bit music that was on the last loading screen. So I waited and waited until finally the game comes back in with my voice channel. The only thing in the entire tree is a big mirror, totally separating the middle of the tree from the other half. My character then walks up to the tree, without my control, and puts his hand toward the reflection. After this I was suddenly brought to my desktop.
Along with the Icon of the game all the files are missing too. The http has also vanished along with it. I ask my friend if he cut the server and he replies and innocent "No."
Anyway, he transfers the money to my PayPal and logs out.
So I go to sleep that night thinking about what I will spend my 100$ on as I drift into sleep.
I wake up about 6 times that night. Always seeing that damn tree. It's not even scary, just annoying. It's a vividly recreated mirror just like the one out of the game and I keep touching it.
I get up at around 6am after being unable to sleep and decide to hop on the computer for the weekend and rummage about on Steam for some good deals. I get about halfway though watching some saints row trailer when I get invited to play some CS:S. The name was added to my friends but I don't recognise him at all. The name, actually resembling mine, keeps flashing and after a couple of minutes I decide to oblige.
The server is pretty normal, just a dust_2 with no announcements and him and myself on opposite teams. It must be a peer to peer because the server name is exactly the same as mine. I bet it's my friend pulling a prank.
After I go through the options and get my game all set, I decide to buy an AWP to shoot this guy up with, but whenever I press the key I have assigned to bind the game freezes and goes back to normal after about 2 seconds.
So I decide its some buggy server coding and continue with the game with the trusty old Glock. After I run out of spawn I can hear a fair laugh/ giggle from the other side of the map. I brush it off a script of plug-in and keep running around. I look for this guy for about 10 minutes when I am about to leave, but I see him in the corner of my eye running under the walkway. I follow him under, but when I re-emerge on the other side I see not the other side of the map, but the inside of a big tree and the large mirror stretched across my screen. The reflection is not of the model I am playing as, but of me. Sitting there at my keyboard. I throw my headset off and check my webcam. Nothing is turned on. What the hell is this?
In the reflection my hand extends from my mouse and begins cutting into its arm with its nails, smiling the entire time while it does so. The cuts start appearing on my arms as he giggles and does so. I scream and turn of the computer, before fading to black, my face is flashed on the screen, all distorted and rotted.
I wait about 4 days before turning the computer back on.
I need to do this, I tell myself, for work. I turn the computer back on and start Word. The program immediately shuts down and begins booting up Battlefield 3.
"What?" I say out loud.
I wasn't even using battle log. This is to suspicious. I am about to turn the computer of in fear of seeing my doppelganger start going all cutty cutty again, but I see I was invited by my old friend.
The server is pretty normal just a squad DM on Caspian border. I spawn and select my weapons. After this I alt tab and open a chat with my friend. Only static.
"Hello?" I say into the microphone.
Only static is returned.
"Come on dude. Don't do this now." I say in hopes of getting a response.
"Whatever, let's just play." I say.
I run around the map, looking for my friend amidst all the bushes and trees lining around the gas station. I see a model run behind a building. It didn't look like the silhouette of a normal model in game. I remember back to Dust_2 and decide to turn the computer off. I reach up to the power and press in once. I look back down to my screen and all I can see is that all the trees now bear the same door.
"Oh shit." I say as I struggle to look away.
The power isn't turning off as my character walks unattended towards the largest of the tress's. The door opens and guess who is sitting against the mirror. The doppelganger, sitting exactly like me staring blankly into the screen. He has changed since the last time I saw him his eyes are sunken and his bones are showing over fleshy creases in his face and skin. He grimaces and starts jabbing himself with a piece of wood.
"AHHAHahhaH" I scream as his actions replicated on my body.
I reach for the cord as pieces of wood and splinter start cutting into my chest.
I final get to the cord and pull it out. All this happening as the laughing and screaming die down on both ends of the voice channel.
I am rushed to the hospital and receive around 60 stitches for my cuts and gashes. I sell my computer when I return home.
A couple of days past and things are looking down for me. I lose my job after having too many days off still thinking about that tree and the doppelganger. I walk around the inside of my home thinking on what I can do. I think about mirrors, me, insanity and how I can overcome this bastard.
Then it clicks.
The mirrors and trees. I need to go back to this game, but the http is downed. I need to host it.
I buy a cheap dell computer from my local store and set up a peer to peer host in the hopes I can just get me and this bastard in one room again. The server pings online as I enter what I can remember to be the host hashes and strings of code from any file residue I can find. After working for about 3 days I finally get the server back online. The web address works and I brace myself as I click login.
The page is different, it has pictures of me losing my job, my loved ones and people crying and being killed. Beheadings, torture, cannibalism and decapitation line my screen as the game plays that same howling noise when I first meet this doppelganger.
I login, the loading pages goes black once more and I am dropped into the forest again. It's different; gore and blood splatter the entire landscape, bodies hang from the branches and all follow me with their black cold eyes as my character and I progress through the landscape. I am shaking in real life and the barriers of game and reality slowly drift apart as I progress deeper and deeper into the forest. I am walking on my own now, no keyboard, no mouse It's me in real life.
I continue, falling over corpses and stains as I keep going. I have to do this. I keep saying to myself, I have to.
Until I finally come to the tree.
I brace myself and walk toward the main door, screaming still going into my ears slows down to giggles as I walk toward the mirror. I see myself, covered in blood, elongated features, black eyes and all looking at me. It starts rasping and crawling toward me, breaking into the mirror. Now the time, I pull out my pocket mirror with all my strength and show it to the doppelganger. I massive burst of screaming echoes, making my eardrums bleed as I hold the mirror with all my willpower.
I suddenly awake, in my room, on the floor, covered in blood and the mirror laying to my left.
I calm down, it's over.
I get up and collect myself, after a quick shower and a glass of water I get in my car as fast as I can and drive to the nearest bridge over water. I get the mirror and throw it down into the water and begin to walk home, safe and able to go home a hero after defeating the Doppelganger.
That's why I am writing this now, to save you the trouble of all of this, be cautious whenever you join any type of empty or abandoned server. You might just start to hear the laughs and giggles echo towards you, because if you encounter your own doppelganger, I fear for the worst. A couple of months ago, the police dredged lakes around the country and found mirrors exactly like the one I used to defeat him my first time and I have a hunch he won't make the same mistake again.

I like it. Though admittedly at this point:
[quote] The reflection is not of the terrorist I am playing as, but of me. [/quote]
it began to delve into the kind of pasta I don't like. Peoples opinions will vary but I always feel that a truly scary creepypasta will stay grounded somewhat in reality. However disregarding my hangups it was nicely written and a good read.
[QUOTE=ArchXeno;34037636]Are all of your post this awesome?
Anyway, It would have been a lot cooler if Red WAS Melissa, and wanted revenge against the author for not saving her[/QUOTE]
I was really hoping it'd turn out it was just some freaky ass paranormal as fuck game spazzing out with the author watching the whole time.
Does anyone have that Animal Crossing pasta. That is definitely a good read.
[QUOTE=lockdown6;34061532]really?
here is the animal crossing thingy:
[url]http://lparchive.org/Animal-Crossing/[/url][/QUOTE]
I read this from the last thread.
Best fucking LP based Creepypasta ever.
I'm thinking of writing one, But i don't know if i should do it from the point of view of the games protagonist, Or from the point of view of the player.
Maybe it could start as a normal LP, then weird stuff starts to happen.
Or maybe i'll sit on my ass, eating cheetos and being a lazy fuck.
[editline]5th January 2012[/editline]
All of you also need to go read that Animal-Crossing one. Seriously. Go.
[editline]5th January 2012[/editline]
Also, Yahtzee wrote a breif Animal-crossing thing that is a bit similar

I figured I had a go at it
[quote]Strange things happened lately, strange beyond definition. Numbers, words and other undefinable sounds in my head. What could they mean? I can feel it, trying to show me something. But what? It started last month. I downloaded a game from the internet. It was called "Museum of Technology". When I started it up, I found myself in a dark, dilapidated hallway, illuminated by the sparse moonlight coming through windows as well as holes in the wall. There were signs of fire and the prevalent sounds of creaking doors and windows everywhere. Every step I took, made a loud thudding sound, closely followed by the creaking of the fragile looking floor. I soon come across a pile of rubble blocking the way with a loosely swinging door to the right. As I enter the room I hear something ringing. It was an old telephone sitting on a small desk. I pick up the handset but say nothing. After a few seconds a monotone, droning voice says "Welcome to the Museum of Technology." then silence.[/quote]
Drop me some feedback and I'll see if I continue. To be honest, I don't feel the creepy reading this but I'm not a professional and I can't make things creepy to save my life.

On a sidenote, I thought creepypasta were those shitty stories you were supposed to copy to 5 other videos or else child-molesting murderous blind Clint Eastwood dressed as a clown would fuck you in the brain.

Oh wow, I finished the TF2 story.
I'm almost at the verge of crying.
[editline]6th January 2012[/editline]
I think I just like creepy or sad stories from a game characters perspective. Well written Fan Fiction.
Alright, initial feedback was rather positive so I decided to continue working on my Dragon Age creepypasta (Molagim).
Quite a bit of writing material was added since last time, so you can read it [url=http://pastebin.com/DcmgXS1b][b]here[/b][/url]. I hope I didn't go the wrong way with this and that anyone who enjoyed the first bit of it, can still enjoy this.

Well, same here. I think I may be high on tiredness or something, I feel like I want to go ring the doorbells of everyone I know and give them kisses.
I'm planning to do a LSD Gameplay w/ commentar(ies) in the middle of the night this weekend.
Gonna be trippy.
I have a feeling this is totally unrelated to this thread tbh.
[quote]So, you know the game called "Neighbours from Hell". It's a game about pissing off your neighbour with tricks. Everything took place in a TV show, you pissed off a real man, but it was filmed. Your character was called Woody and was an average man in a sweater, your neighbour was a fat bastard in a t-shirt and some shorts. Nothing special, just another casual game. Then there was a second one, about your neighbour going on vacation and you pissing him off there. Russians translated both games as "How to Piss off your Neighbour", and then GFi made some fake games, like "How to Piss off a Student/Director/your Neighbout part 3/4/5/6/7". They were shitty and had nothing to do with the real games.
My friend is some kind of a troll. Instead of a normal present, he kicked in my apartament and brought me a fucking CD. In 2012. A CD. Well, it was my present for this year. So I started it up, just for giggles, and was glad to see a real third part of the "Neighbours from Hell" series. It was some kind of beta copy and only 3 levels were present. We booted up the first one.
You were playing as Woody, but this time he was wearing a pull-over and had mustache. The neighbour had gray hair and the same clothes. It took place in the same house as the first game, but everything was old, shabby, worn-out. Like you ruined this man's life. But Woody didn't feel bad about it. He was smiling. I got a pen and some little balls from the drawer, though there was no momma's portrait to write on. The neighbour was laying in his bed and didn't get up once, but he surely was breathing. I went up to him and made Woody drop balls near the bed and paint some thing on his face. The neighbour got up, hardly, and then slipped on the balls and broke his neck because of hitting his own bed. I was terrified. Even my friend, who was making tea for himself (what a bastard), heard the sound of the neck being broken. I continued to play.
The second level was about doing some stuff at the hospital, where the old man was stationed. It was old, every metal thing was rusty, the main colors were gray and brown. The level was very small, it had only a door, reception desk with nobody working there, and this man's room. I went into the room. The neighbour was laying on some sort of a bunk. There was a drop counter near him. Without my command, woody went to the drop counter and broke it. The man started to scream.
The third level booted up, again, without my command. It was a cemetery. The old man's grabe was pointed out. Woody came up to the grave and laughed. Maniacally. The screen started to fill itself with static. A loud voice came out of the speakers. "SEE WHAT YOU'VE BECOME," -it said. "YOU WERE HUNGRY FOR A LAUGHED AND KILLED A MAN, HOW PATHETIC". The voice was distorted. We could hear someone screaming and chainsaw being started up. The screen started covering with blood. My friend spilled the tea on my PC. It stopped, because the tea damaged my CD-drive.
"Where did you get this thing?" -I asked my friend. "WHAT THING?" -he screamed at me. His voice turned into that loud demonic from the speakers. His skin started to rot, this eyes fell out. "HOW PATHETIC" -he cried at me. He pulled out a chainsaw out of nowhere. I ran away.
I was running through the empty streets and freezing to death, but he was chasing me. And then I woke up. Apparently, the game took ages to load and I fell asleep. But then I was greeted by the theme music and woke up, my friend was sitting near me. We clicked "Start" and saw 3 levels. I said "GET OUT" and kicked him out of my apartament and tore the CD apart. I don't even want to know what was there.[/quote]
I hope it's troll enough not to ruin this thread.

I tried doing one but I couldn't find a working link that works with epsxe so I ended up doing another dream simulator called "SOUP"
It was a huge hunk of shit it had like 10 dreams and all the dreams ended up with the player ending up in a fucking cube with some random shit in the middle.
