This is true. I was the titties.

Get me a fancy ass suit.

But wait: As an extra middle finger to the player, the code always ends up being something that you ALREADY HAD A COPY OF the whole time.

Once he cheers up he runs the machine again (???? what??) and then your torrent suddenly has better download speeds for some fucking reason.

It sucks ass.

So the guy gets super depressed 'cuz of this, and even if you remind him you held up your end of the deal he'll just stay sulking in the corner.

So you have to go and alchemize the code the machine gave you to manually create what he most desires.
October 6, 2025 at 6:06 AM
So you do a fuckton of quests to help him finish it but WHOOPS, it turns out the machine is BROKEN and DOESN'T WORK!!

All it does is spit out a random slip of paper with a captcha code on it.
October 6, 2025 at 6:06 AM
It's this huge thing in the basement that looks like it came right out of a fucking Dr Seuss book, and it supposedly creates whatever the user desires most in the world.
October 6, 2025 at 6:06 AM
This guy is gonna take one look at you after you install the Torrent CD and be like "HMMMMMM.... YOU HAVE THE LOOK OF SOMEONE FRUSTRATED WITH SLOW DOWNLOAD SPEEDS..."

And he'll offer to spruce up the program for you in exchange for helping him complete his ultimate machine.

Each one is always gonna have this one extra-hatable dude in it, and since Carapace names change on a session-by-session basis we usually just refer to them by initials.

Derse gets HG (Something like Hackneyed Genius or Hoarding Grumbler.)

Prospit gets PI (Ditto, but more "positive" sounding.)

It won't let you alchemize anything you can't actually HOLD the required grist for, but it'll help keep you topped off.
October 6, 2025 at 5:49 AM
It's a function of GristTorrent that stores all of the excess Grist that every player in the session collects, and periodically distributes it to everyone who isn't maxed out on what it has stored.
October 6, 2025 at 5:49 AM
But then you notice they DESPAWN eventually and you think "oh okay this game just fucking hates me"

AND YOU'D BE RIGHT

But not for this particular reason.
This is what the Gutter is for.
October 6, 2025 at 5:49 AM
Then you notice the game doesn't actually stop you from picking up grist that would put you OVER the cap and it goes to waste and you're like "yo what the hell"

So you think you're gonna be chill and cheat the system and just leave the extra lying around for later
October 6, 2025 at 5:49 AM
This is most notable in the early game when these numbers are stupidly low.

You might notice that even some of the imps and even the occasionally large mite are dropping like, upwards of 15~ grist, so you fill out that limit pretty quick.
