Other guides of dubious relevance

[timelyTurnabout]

I'll occasionally stumble across a guide of dubious relevance - i.e. some elements of the guide differ from my experiences, as if it's referencing a different version of SBURB or something. If anyone else knows of anything like that, post it here:

Sburb Character Creation Guide, by Xalrath

SBURBFAN947'S ANY% SBURB V1.1.82.5212 SINGLE-PLAYER SPEEDRUN NOTES

[chivalrousjackal]

It certainly does sound like different versions. I mean, with the supposed "speed run", suicide isn't exile disabled?

The alternate character creation guide is pretty cool, though I don't know how it expects us to pick our titles unless we hack? The God-tiering process seems a lot more complex too. Still cool. Kind of like alternate universe Sburb shenanigans or something.

Some other stuff I've run across the interwebs are:

Let’s Play Sburb: Commoner Cycle Modstravaganza
The Game, and Those Who Play

The first one is sort of in the same version of Sburb as the Xalrath's. The second one is more of mythos/snippets for different classes and aspects, though could be regarded as possible guides of behavior/stuff important to each role. Again, they're also a little off at certain points/miss some important parts of each role.

There's some complex kaianshifty multiversion multilayer stuff involved. You guys really got the short end of the stick with existing.

Hm...Suicide isn't always exile-disabled if your exile is dead, not paying attention, preoccupied, not smart enough to detect a self termination attempt, sincerely wants you in particular to die on a level it causes a script conflict and lets carapace AI bypass the no-suicide codes (Torturing or otherwise seriously abusing Jack Noir or another heavily coded and sometimes hostile carapace and then exiling them can result in this, but seriously what kind of monster would do that), or simply are unable to access or utilize the command prompt at the time preventing them from stopping you. They also are not perfect at detecting suicide attempts even when they're smart enough to realize what would likely kill someone. Lying on your quest bed and taking some food from a Doom player who isn't in obvious Doom regalia or is otherwise unmarked, masked, and hiding any way for the exile to identify them as someone who eats poison harmlessly is a good trick if you seriously need to ascend badly to not permadie. Weapons accidents when doing dangerous things like juggling chainsaws also tend to get through, and accepting the initial "lol do something really really stupid since you're following my orders apparently" commands also works if what they want could actually injure you enough.

...I should go pen those failed-session stories now.
