SonicGL Leaked? Seriously guys, how gullible are you?

[Cue]

As you may be aware my signature says I have a leaked copy of SonicGL. Well, it's a complete and utter lie. It was an experiement/joke to see how many suckers I could reel in. And believe me, I got quite a few...

I said PM me for details, I didn't say what would happen.

The following is not meant to be insulting or flame bait. It's just a good laugh, this isn't meant to be a "Let's take the micky out of that guy" thread either.

But here they are, all 20 or so in order of recieving them...

Subject: Sonic GL

You have sonic gl if you do could you give it to me?

Subject: SonicGL

So, what is this SonicGL that you speak of?

Subject: Your sig told me to PM you, so I did.

And frankly, I don't believe you =/. you got any proof?

Subject: You have SonicGL?!

So, you say SonicGL has been leaked and you possess it. Tell me more about this, please

Subject: You have SonicGL?

Oh my......you've got Sonic GL? Is it good? Do you think it's better than SRB2? Please give me the download link. I'm asking politely. Please.....

Suject: Sonic GL leak and a question about your server

First off, can I have the Sonic GL leak, and second off, how come when someone joins your server, the name is rainbow, but listserv doesn't make it rainbow?

Subject: how???

how do you get it???

How do you get what? =P

Subject: ok, i'll humor you...

How on earth did you get sonicgl? Didn't the project get canned? I mean, if you have it, sure...link it to me...but more than likely this sounds like a trap to catch noobs..in which case boy do i feel silly!

Kudos to you, Amyrose!

Subject: SONIC GL LEAK - LIAR

yeh, ok um lyk, I'm pming you about it =S

Subject: SonicGL leak

KITTY SAY WHAT?! You have SonicGL?! Awesome! Can you email it to me at ***********@*********? I'd really like to see it, and I won't give it to anyone without your permission. Seeya later! (Make sure to include SonicGL in your mail subject thing)

Subject: Sonic GL

What in the hell?
"GL leak what happen!!1"
Detals Please.

Subject: Sonic GL

Sonic GL was leaked? Can I see it?

Mystic apparently knows why SSN would want it... Care to share?

Subject: SonicGL plz

Yeah. You said in your sig that we can PM you for details about SonicGL being leaked.
(Unless it was a trick >:O)

Subject: SonicGL

I'll have it then pleez

Subject: Sonic GL leak? Seriously?

So, cueball, in your sig it says you have a copy of Sonic GL, are you serious about that?

Subject: That "Sonic GL" thing in your sig >.>

Is that true or are you just doing that so people will PM you, and you can make them feel stupid? *shot*

Subject: SonicGL: is this true...

...or just a test to see how many rabid nOObs beg you for it? If it is true, then I'll take the details, please.
*waits for a topic titled 'Some people will fall for anything'*

Close topic title...

Subject: lolwtfbbq

lol wtf sonicgl lulz DOWANT

Subject: Sonic gl info

Please give me some sonic gl info.I'd like to learn how u got it to.

Subject: jhdffd

Wut about SonicGL bein leaked? GIMME INFO, or somethin.

Subject: GL?

You have Sonic GL? I want it! NOW! lol

Subject: SonicGL

"SonicGL has been leaked, I have it, PM me for details!"
If you are speaking the truth, could you give me a copy of the game, please?

Once again, don't take offence, you have helped in an experiment to prove how gullible the SRB2 community... And the creator of SRB2 himself, can actually be.

Also, anyone that PMs me about it now will in fact be linked to a program that has a "Loading SonicGL" splash page, while it prints lines of text into numerous text files causing a massive build up on your Hard Drive...
And yeah, it'll have awesome messages while you wait =P

- Cue Out

Cueball61 will not be held responsible for you looking like an idiot...
Except for SSN, he takes full credit for making SSN look a fool, and he's proud of it!

 

[Flame]

Haha, wow, it's amazing how many people fell for that.
Most of the PMs are from general idiots on the messageboard so it's obvious they would fall for it.

 

[Kaysakado]

SSN Failed? NOES, teh world is collapsing! Anyway, I got fooled.

 

[Callum]

XD Nice job Cueball, I wondered how many n00bs would fall for that.

 

[Megasonic]

I...just can't stop laughing. XD

 

[Spazzo]

Watch as another n00b PMs you about it now, even though he read this topic. =P

 

[Segmint]

It was obvious... that's why I put LIAR in the subject. =S

 

[SSNTails]

Mystic apparently knows why SSN would want it... Care to share?

Sure thing. I...:

*) Don't have time to spend all of my life on the computer sitting in an IRC chat all day to find out what's a hoax and what isn't.

*) Just wanted to look at it for the hell of it, like anyone else.

BJ really has no reason not to release what he's done (a-la Wizard 1.0), unless it's in a much more incomplete state than what the videos suggest.

So yes, I am challenging BJ that what he has really isn't all that exciting. For the most part, it looks like a terrain engine with random objects scattered around. You're not going to be able to make a Sonic game (give or take one or two zones) using a terrain system.

EXCUSES!
No SSN, naughty naughty! *slaps ssn's hands*
Naughty SSN....
Oh gawd, not the tempban! No!




Anyway, its amazing how many people fell for it.

I have SonicGL. You can download it, but remember this:
SONICGL IS UNSUPPORTED, KTHXBYE
It's highly buggy and will probably crash your computer. If you have anything important running, save and quit. If you lose anything due to this, it ain't my fault.
Link Removed. You're going to end up killing someone's computer with that thing.



(lets see how many people fall for this one..)

 

[Kaysakado]

Wrong text color, and not everyone uses the blue theme. Anyway, what is it? Some kind of virus? Because I'm too scared to go check.

 

[Segmint]

I downloaded it.








Loading SonicGL...

 

[Kaysakado]

O rly? Pix or GTFO. Actually, no, don't give me teh pix, cause you might hoax it with one of the released pix.

 

[Segmint]

DOWNLOAD IT YOURSELF, DAMN. Don't blame me for something Shuffle released.

 

[Fish hook]

ZOMG DIS IZ TEH BEZT GAME EVA!
THANKZ SHUFFLE!
XD

jk

 

[Spazzo]

[16:25] <Spazzo> Shuffle posted a link to a no dobut fake SonicGL.exe
[16:25] <Spazzo> I want to know what it is before I click on it.
[16:25] <JMS> I don't think it's annoying, NitroTH.
[16:25] <Flame> Probably an Srb2 EXE.
[16:25] <Spazzo> 172 mb
[16:25] <Spazzo> *kb
[16:25] <Camo_Man> the*
[16:25] <Spazzo> I really don't wanna click it first.
[16:25] *** Omega has joined #srb2fun
[16:26] <Spazzo> OMG OMEGA!
[16:26] <JMS> Hello.
[16:26] <Spazzo> You haven't heard, have you?
[16:26] <Spazzo> Shuffle leaked SonicGL!
[16:26] <Spazzo> Link removed here too. I don't want people complaining that something on our forums screwed up their computer, even if some already claim that SRB2 does it anyways.
[16:26] <Spazzo> Download it! OMG is it awesome
[16:26] <Camo_Man> Better than SonicTH for the 360!
[16:26] <JMS> Yeah, I've tried it and it rocks.
[16:27] <Omega> how did this happen

Some time later...

[16:30] <JMS> You are going to ruin our pl-...FUN!
[16:30] <Camo_Man> Shall we try tricking the next person to join?
[16:31] <Omega> Spazzo
[16:31] <Omega> 1.5ghz Pentium III
[16:31] <Omega> 16MB 3D card
[16:31] <Omega> 386MB of RAM
[16:31] <Spazzo> ......
[16:31] <Omega> I don't think it will run :/
[16:31] <Spazzo> Seriously, WTF
[16:31] <Spazzo> Did you not read?
[16:31] <Spazzo> I can't believe it
[16:32] <Spazzo> We tricked him, and now he can't seem to solve the trick
[16:32] <Omega> pat youself on the back
[16:32] <Omega> or yourself
[16:32] <Omega> whichever is more convienent

 

[Kaysakado]

Really, is it a virus, or does it just say "ZOMG I TRICKED YOUZ!"

 

[Segmint]

Just download the damn thing. >.>

 

[Flame]

Really, is it a virus, or does it just say "ZOMG I TRICKED YOUZ!"

Neither, it's a program that extracts Sonic GL to whatever directory you have the EXE in.

 

[FuriousFox]

It creates an insanely huge file on your hard-drive, which is close enough to a virus for me. Don't waste people's hard-disk space, even if they can just delete it.
