I got up to the censorship level, and then decided that this was terrible.

I clicked away from the tab and when I got back it had restarted. It wasn't compelling enough to start over to get where I was...

plutor, i'm both relieved and sad that we both lost the game as a result of this post. relieved that it's spread further than just my circle of friends, and sad that i just lost the game. damnit.

Oh my, yes. It is always time to play the Game. To know the Game is to play the Game.

Yet I found myself going back to try the other pop stars.

Discovering the object of the game is the object of the game.

I guess I just accidentally the game. THE WHOLE THING!

This is exactly what I would have done if I was in college with access to flash software.

I do not know if that makes it good or bad.

It's all about the game, and how you play it—it's all about control, and if you can take it.

I'm beginning to sense that people are finally starting to get fed up with videos and flash games about stick figures exploding in showers of blood and entrails.

It's about time.
