This kinda counts as it was near the AE in Pocket D. Don't know if it was a typo or intentional - but its funny either way...

Believe it or not, I may have been personally responsible for this one!

 

Back on the Live server, I had an AE review column in the forums, Purple Lovin's Highly Sarcastic Review Pit, wherein I review all manner of arcs in a highly sarcastic manner, a tradition carried on to this day. One of the arcs was "Is it Live or is it Memory-X?", by Armsman, who doesn't appear to be on Resurgence. The arc was generally good, but it had a few time-wasting elements, including a hostage who has to be led all the way across the map to the exit. I sarcastically pointed out that in the time I had wasted, I could have written a full AE arc entitled "Mynx's Furry Adventure", in which Mynx tracks down and battles Bobcat, then they team up to take down Nemesis, then Mynx invites Bobcat over to her place for sardines and milk, and then... you get the idea. Sadly, my hypothetical arc was rejected three times.

 

A few weeks after posting that, I was in the AE reviewing yet another arc, and overheard an NPC saying "This is the third time my mission 'Statesman's Furry Adventure' was rejected for violating the terms of service". I suppose this might have been a coincidence, but I'm betting that some Cryptic employee saw my post and took inspiration. Then, a bit later when Statesman was killed in Who Will Die, they deleted almost every reference to Statesman in NPC chatter, and that snippet became "Mynx's Furry Adventure".

P.S. I should warn you, if you haven't been to the Wayback Machine before, clicking on the link above will cost you several hours of your life. But then, this sentence is at the bottom of the page and the link is way up there, so most likely you're clicked it already, which means you are reading this sentence in the future. So, tell, me... does humanity survive global warming? Do I really need to give up plastic straws?

You have to try his Architect mission he just did. It was so intense.

 

Edit: I think the AE employees should get security in... he's walking around in circles taking about the intense Architect mission he did over and over...

 

Edit 2: I hid in Studio B... He followed me in and is now pushing his mission onto Arachnos soldiers.

Edit 3: ^ Taken as security were escorting him out. They probably saved his life, Double Tap, Comrade and Hollow Point look ready to start shooting...

Wait - are they talking about me - am I trapped in my Wonderland arc? Can't say it doesn't feel like I am trapped in AE 🙂
