Ah, so that's what those things are.

[WillowLuman]

Well, an actual MST3K (they're usually on movies/videos) would be one or more people reading through a text and inserting snarky/funny commentary between the lines. For a more modern example, it's like Rifftrax.

Dammit, I really want to see it now.

Not to stray off topic, but you can find a whole lot of the original Mystery Science Theater 3000 on Youtube. I'd recommend watching it.

[Dermonster]

No, I mean the author commentary.

[Araph]

Are there already MST3K's of this?

I've written them for about 16 chapters, but none are published because they contain spoilers. "Author commentary" would be a more accurate name for them than MST3K. Basically it's just me explaining all the subtle references and symbolism, pointing out references and shoutouts, explanation for "what was really going," the occasional logical inconsistency, my hopes and expectations for the game, etc.

LET ME READ THEM PLEASE

DON'T EAT THE ****ING APPLE MICHAEL.  THE OTHER VOICES WANT TO SEE YOU DEAD, THAT'S WHY THEY'RE TELLING YOU TO EAT IT.  DON'T LISTEN TO THEM, THROW IT FAR AWAY!

...Also, just a moment ago, when I said "Don't eat the apple", what did the word before 'apple' sound like?  A loud censor bleep, maybe?

I'm saying to throw the apple away, because if I were a horrific lovecraftian monster beyond the ken of man or mer, I would enchant the apple itself with the compulsion to eat it.  Keeping it in our backpack might just let the magic set in.  Anyways, what would we really stand to gain?  Eating it is just insane- if it was beneficial at all, then we probably would have been given a deal with the devil situation.  Selling it is just completely evil, for the aformentioned reason, and I thought we were generally trying not to be a jerk.

Also, I'm surprised anyone could have missed the eldritch stuff there- I caught that something was weird the moment Applejack's fangs were mentioned, although it took me longer to realize she wasn't just a vampire.  I would've liked to see how people would have reacted if the reeally obvious stuff was cut out...

LB, you need to set some of us up to execute a very small part of your last will so we can publish those notes if anything happened to you!! Don't take them with you! (-;

Also, eat the apple. Nothing ever happens to the Nevarine they can't handle, not Mora, not Sheogorath, not Vile.

Except apparently Dunmer with axes.

Cutoff for episode 60

Most likely it won't be up tonight.

Also, what madness is this? Five of you voted multiple times? I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, of course, since all things relate to five somehow. But of those five who double voted, three voted both ways. One, both ways even within the same post.

[WillowLuman]

Such is the nature of frantic discussion.

[IronyOwl]

And of blind decisions involving great risk and great reward.

[ank]

Yeah, sorry about that.

My vote was for eating the damn apple.

See, LB, we are torn between common sense and narrative reasoning, my sane half tells me to not eat the apple, and my storytelling half wants to find out what happens.
