The man logged off of his Tengaged account, as he prepared to go to bed. He sighed, deciding not to turn his computer off, and crawled under the sheets of his queen-sized bed. His wife lay sound asleep next to him, wrapped up in the blanket her husband had knitted for her as a Christmas present. The man kissed her on the forehead before turning off the light and drifting off to sleep.
-
The next morning, the man woke up to find his wife missing. He thought nothing of it, and rolled out of bed, still half asleep. However, his blood ran ice cold, when he read the text message on his phone that he shortly thereafter received.
-
"If u ever want 2 c ur wife again, log on 2 10gaged before 10pm or shell b dead."
-
The man did not understand, was this some sort of joke? He grinned and passed the text off as one of his friend's pranks and looked up at the clock, which read 1:16 PM. Had he really slept that late. Nevertheless, he hopped onto his computer and tried logging into Tengaged. However, for some reason, he could not log on. He tried a few more times, but to no avail. Finally, he opted to make an another account, but suddenly, his computer screen went black. Not knowing what happened, he looked down at the computer wire to see that it was cut.
-
Growing ever nervous by this "game", he left his house and walked to the public library, where he found all of the computers were full and there was a long list of people waiting to log on. Deciding that his head was getting to him, he walked to the local electronics store to buy a new plug in cord, but the store was sold out.
-
The man's heart began to race when he received another text message:
-
Clock is ticking, ______
-
The man dropped his cell phone and ran as fast as he could to his wife's office, only to find that she called in sick earlier that morning. He decided to run to the nearby clinic, only to find that his wife never arrived. He broke down in the lobby, falling to his knees and sobbing uncontrollably. A nurse walked up to him and asked if he was okay. He regained his composure and left the hospital.
-
He then realized that he could log onto his cell phone to get onto Tengaged. Unfortunately, he dropped his phone! He rushed back to the computer store to find his phone shattered to pieces and a disturbed looking man. He fell to his knees once more and screamed his wife's name in desperation, hoping she would come to him and confirm his suspicions of a prank.
-
Defeated, the man walked home and went upstairs to see something weird. His computer cord was somehow fixed. He hurried to his computer and logged on to Tengaged! What shocked him was the time. 10:01 PM. Before he could sigh, the words 'TOO LATE' popped onto his screen. Before he could say anything, the telephone next to the computer rang. He answered it with tears in his eyes, only to hear the desperate screams of his wife and a dial tone.
-
The man was speechless, but soon grabbed his belt and ran into the bathroom. Sometime later, his wife came through the front door, after a long day at work. She called his name, but received no answer. She ran upstairs to her room and undressed, prepared to take a shower. She opened the bathroom door to a horrifying site: her husband, hanging by the neck from the ceiling, very dead. On the mirror was his wife's name, written in blood. And underneath it, were the letters T-E-N-G-A-G-E-D.
The woman opened her front door lazily and slammed it behind her. She leaned against the door and sighed heavily, exhausted from her long day of work. Her eyes skimmed across her apartment, the back window revealing the Seattle night sky, snow collecting on the frame.
-
She removed her trenchcoat and placed it on the coatrack. As she pulled a cigarette from her pocket and pops it into her mouth, she was overcome by a feeling of horror, triggered by a sound from the kitchen. She opted not to light the cigarette and rushed to her computer.
-
Her mind raced as she clicked the icon to her browser, her heart pumping fast and hard. She was breathing heavily as she clicked on the Favorites tab and clicked the Tengaged page.
-
She knew what was going on. It was all too obvious. It never happened to her, but it happened to many other people. She wasn't ready yet, she felt she hadn't made her mark on the world. Was it really the end for her?
-
She looked up from her computer and saw him standing there, a sinister grin on his face. She began to tear up as she entered her game room and the man stepped forward.
-
All throughout the city, a shrill scream rang through the snow-filled streets. After that, there was nothing but silence.
-
Two hours later, the paramedics carried her unconscious body into the ambulence as two police carried out the crying man. The poor man, he walked up to his wife to give her a hug, only for her to faint from shock. He thought he scared her to death, but only a handful of people knew the truth. They are the nineteen people who voted her out of her Tengaged game, her black and white portrait remains a testament of the harsh reality that happened to the woman who came in 20th on her Tengaged game.
I believe that vroom is unfairly using the almighty powers of the Chen-Bot in order to win Stars, so therefore I think he should be banned. Anyone who agrees should plus this and I speak for everyone when I say that vroom is cheating. Sign your name here to band together in this movement.
That is all!
(Joke post, you're awesome, vroom, but with all the 'Ban ____' petitions, I thought I'd parody one XP)
My second Casting and I'm nominated for eviction, for the first time ever. It's a very scary feeling to be nominated, especially up against two inactives. Who do you think the majority is going to gun for? :( Let's hope I survive...
I've had this idea for a game in my head for days now, but I am worried that it'll fail and that I've wasted my money. So, how can I make it more successful? Do I heavily promote it? A question to the big group owners: How did YOU become successful?
