The idea behind ClubFloyd
is that each week at a pre-arranged time, a group of
people meet online to cooperatively play a game of
interactive fiction. ANOTHER WARNING! A lot (most!) of the transcripts contained on this site are, shall we say, family-friendly. This is not one of those family-friendly transcripts. Just so we're clear. |

#ClubFloyd Discussion

|
| Jacqueline hollers, "ClubFloyd time is NOW! Come one, come all, and we shall play a 2012 game." | ||
| zarf arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | Jota asks, "What's the game?" | |
| inky arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | Johnny says, "It's a surprise!" | |
| Bert arrives, ready to play with the toys. | Bert says, "I don't think I've played It's A Surprise yet." | |
| Jacqueline says, "So, one sec while I compile a list of the stuff we've uploaded that people were interested in..." | ||
| olethros arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | ||
| Zach arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | Zach says, "Mornin' Floydians" | |
| Johnny arrives, ready to play with the toys. | Jacqueline says, "Okay... Choice of the Star Captain, Tree and Star, Way Walkers: University, Killer Headache... | |
| and I could have sworn there was one more, but I am not remembering it. It was a Hugo game, I thought." | Jacqueline says, "Oh, no, wait - Tree and Star is Hugo, so that's that." | |
| Binder arrives, full of fun and funk. | Jacqueline says, "And people also want Counterfeit Monkey, but that is soooo a NightFloyd thing." | |
| Johnny says, "NightFloyd rules!" | ||
| Zach says, "I forget what I voted for here and what I voted for for NightFloyd. Maybe the same things." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "So, since no one is going 'OOOH OOOOH THAT ONE,' perhaps I'll do a mini survey for the peeps here." | ||
| Binder says, "The surveys will continue until something something" | ||
| Jacqueline | [LINK] | ||
| Johnny says, "At the risk of outing myself, I already voted." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Looks like we have three votes." | ||
| olethros asks, "all for different games?" | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Has everyone voted who plans to? I will give peeps one more minute." | ||
| olethros says, "I voted" | ||
| Jacqueline says, "It never matters if we have a tie. That's what I'm here for. I'm like the US Vice President that way." | ||
| inky says, "ha ha" | ||
| Zach asks, "Can the president still veto?" | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Yes, but I am also the President." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "It's more of a friendly dictatorship, really." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "So, let me see what we have..." | ||
| olethros says, "huh" | ||
| olethros says, "ploretariate unite" | ||
| zarf says, "one grenade in this room, and the government of ClubFloyd is destroyed" | ||
| inky says, "whenever we fly anywhere, Jacqueline has to go on two separate planes" | ||
| olethros says, "ha ha" | ||
| Jacqueline says (to z), "hee" | ||
| zarf says, "dammit I was going to make that joke" | ||
| Jacqueline says (to inky), "haha" | ||
| Jacqueline exclaims, "I couldn't sway these votes even if I wanted to... We have A Killer Headache!" | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "load sleepmask killerheadache" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/1 Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Ever since you died, the migraines have been getting worse. At first Floyd | you tried the usual - aspirin, caffeine, screaming - but you quickly Floyd | learned that the type of migraine caused by having a large part of Floyd | your brain eaten by an undead creature does not respond well to Floyd | medication. The only known remedy is nutritional. Floyd | Floyd | The brains of lower animals will work, partially, for a short time, Floyd | but only human brains have the right balance of vitamins, essential Floyd | fats and amino acids necessary to hold off the searing, throbbing Floyd | agony long enough to make it to your next meal. And they taste Floyd | surprisingly good. Unfortunately, while you were busy figuring all Floyd | this out, the rest of the undead world was finishing off the last of Floyd | the human race, leaving you with... Floyd | Floyd | A Killer Headache Floyd | A Distasteful Situation by Mike Ciul Floyd | Release 3 / Serial number 121231 / Inform 7 build 6G60 (I6/v6.32 lib Floyd | 6/12N) Floyd | Floyd | Cloudliner KC7 Trailer Floyd | This tiny trailer is where you would sleep, if you slept. The front Floyd | door is to the south. Floyd | Floyd | What's left of a large mirror leans against the wall, smeared with Floyd | dried blood and vomit. Pieces of broken glass litter the floor. Floyd | Floyd | Towards the back is a small kitchenette. There's not much to it, since Floyd | the trailer has no water, gas, or electricity. The fridge is still Floyd | here, though. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "I have played this one, but will definitely watch. I'm keen to see what CF thinks of it." | |
| Bert goes home. | ||
| Bert has disconnected. | inky says, "aah suckered into a zombie game" | |
| Zach asks, "Screaming helps with migraines?" | ||
| olethros asks, "wait fridge?" | ||
| olethros says, "but ther eis no electricity" | ||
| inky says (to Floyd), "open fridge" | ||

| inky says (to Floyd), "x head" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/3 Floyd | > Floyd | > X HEAD Floyd | Floyd | Eyes that were once steely blue have clouded over. There is a gaping Floyd | hole in the back of the skull. The severed head is sitting on a shelf Floyd | in the refrigerator. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| inky says (to Floyd), "get head" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/4 Floyd | > Floyd | > GET HEAD Floyd | Floyd | The head's eyes follow you as you pick it up. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| inky says (to Floyd), "look in hole" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/5 Floyd | > Floyd | > LOOK IN HOLE Floyd | Floyd | The skull was bashed in and most of the brains were scooped out and Floyd | eaten. There's a lot of empty space in the skull cavity, but a small Floyd | scrap of the hippocampus inside the head remains. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach says, "It's battery powered!" | |
| olethros says (to Floyd), "sautee hppocampus" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/5 Floyd | > Floyd | > SAUTEE HPPOCAMPUS Floyd | Floyd | I couldn't identify a verb in that command. Please enter a command Floyd | such as LOOK, EXAMINE FRIDGE, or GO SOUTH. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| inky says (to Floyd), "x mirror" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/6 Floyd | > Floyd | > X MIRROR Floyd | Floyd | (the broken mirror) Floyd | Little remains but a few fragments of glass projecting from a wooden Floyd | frame. Flies cluster around chunks of skin caught on the sharp edges. Floyd | A much more pleasant sight than your own reflection. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| inky says (to Floyd), "lick mirror" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/7 Floyd | > Floyd | > LICK MIRROR Floyd | Floyd | (the broken mirror) Floyd | The broken mirror tastes like dust. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 0/7 Floyd | > Floyd | > X REFLECTION Floyd | Floyd | Thankfully, there is not enough glass left in the mirror to see your Floyd | reflection. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| inky says (to Floyd), "eat hippocampus" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/8 Floyd | > Floyd | > EAT HIPPOCAMPUS Floyd | Floyd | You scrape out the last of the rotten tissue and swallow it whole. The Floyd | brains of the living are more nourishing, but you feel better as soon Floyd | as it hits your stomach. You rock back and forth, feeling the heat Floyd | spread through your body, soothing the rattling in your head. Floyd | Floyd | Almost there. Floyd | Floyd | You rock back and forth, feeling the heat spread up your arm as Floyd | you work. You're halfway through the spinal column. A hacksaw is just Floyd | not the right tool for this job. Peter and Marie do their best to Floyd | hold the body down, but it struggles more than ever. Floyd | Floyd | "It's not Jim anymore." Peter reminds you. "It's just a corpse. A Floyd | thing. A monster. You can do it, Jack." Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Johnny says (to Floyd), "x me" | ||

Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/11 Floyd | > Floyd | > L Floyd | Floyd | You look up from your work. Your friends are... not here. You Floyd | must have been hallucinating again. Floyd | Floyd | Cloudliner KC7 Trailer Floyd | This tiny trailer is where you would sleep, if you slept. The front Floyd | door is to the south. Floyd | Floyd | What's left of a large mirror leans against the wall, smeared with Floyd | dried blood and vomit. Pieces of broken glass litter the floor. Floyd | Floyd | The refrigerator is standing open. Floyd | Floyd | > | Fang asks, "what are we playing?" | |
| Johnny says, "Killer Headache, A" | ||
| olethros says, "a murderous maniac who is a bit hungry" | ||
| Johnny says (to Floyd), "x hacksaw" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/11 Floyd | > Floyd | > X HACKSAW Floyd | Floyd | There's no hacksaw here. Are you hallucinating again? Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

| inky says (to Floyd), "s" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/14 Floyd | > Floyd | > S Floyd | Floyd | (first opening the front door) Floyd | You grip the doorknob with your free hand and twist it. The door Floyd | rattles, but doesn't open. You pull at the knob, but the door seems Floyd | stuck. You yank at the doorknob again. The handle rips out of the door Floyd | and you're left holding it in your hand. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| inky says (to Floyd), "x handle" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/15 Floyd | > Floyd | > X HANDLE Floyd | Floyd | It's old and filthy with smears of dried fluids. The knob has been Floyd | yanked from the door. Floyd | Floyd | > | Fang says, "suspicious that the mirror is smashed" | |
| inky says (to Floyd), "kick door" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/16 Floyd | > Floyd | > KICK DOOR Floyd | Floyd | You give the front door a forceful kick, but it seems to do a lot more Floyd | damage to your foot than your foot does to it. Floyd | Floyd | Christ Almighty! This living death isn't for the weak. Floyd | Floyd | Your foot is turned inward at an angle that would be impossible if it Floyd | were firmly attached. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

| inky says (to Floyd), "hit door with handle" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/19 Floyd | > Floyd | > HIT DOOR WITH HANDLE Floyd | Floyd | You whack the doorknob against the door, but it hardly makes a mark. Floyd | You hit it harder, until you hear a crack in your wrist. Floyd | Floyd | God dammit to hell. Flies settle on your body, tickling you Floyd | in spots you can't reach. Floyd | Floyd | > | olethros says, "there were some hints" | |
| Fang says, "it'll probably turn out that we're a ghost or something" | ||
| Johnny says, "all the hints" | ||

| Fang says (to Floyd), "l" | ||
Floyd | > SEARCH GLASS Floyd | Floyd | Among the pieces you find a shard of your mirror, about the size of a Floyd | credit card.

Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/26 Floyd | > Floyd | > X SKULL Floyd | Floyd | The skull was bashed in and all of the brains were scooped out and Floyd | eaten. Floyd | Floyd | In the skull cavity is a doorknob. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Johnny says (to Floyd), "open door with shard" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/27 Floyd | > Floyd | > OPEN DOOR WITH SHARD Floyd | Floyd | Only the doorknob can unlatch the door. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/28 Floyd | > Floyd | > X FRIDGE Floyd | Floyd | It's a beat-up old white fridge, apartment-sized. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/30 Floyd | > Floyd | > I Floyd | Floyd | In one hand you have the severed head (containing a shard of your Floyd | mirror). In the other you have a doorknob. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| olethros says (to Floyd), "open door with knob" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/31 Floyd | > Floyd | > OPEN DOOR WITH KNOB Floyd | Floyd | You slide the handle into the hole in the door and turn it, but you Floyd | need another hand free to pull on the door. Floyd | Floyd | > | inky asks, "ha ha, the head is the carryall?" | |
| olethros says (to Floyd), "drop head" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/32 Floyd | > Floyd | > DROP HEAD Floyd | Floyd | The head bites onto your finger in an attempt to avoid being let go. Floyd | The flesh of your hand is not very substantial, however, and the head Floyd | drops to the ground, a small strip of your skin between its teeth. Floyd | Floyd | > | Johnny says, "carryone maybe." | |
| olethros says (to Floyd), "get shard" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/33 Floyd | > Floyd | > GET SHARD Floyd | Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | zarf says, "this game is icky." | |

Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/34 Floyd | > Floyd | > OPEN DOOR WITH KNOB Floyd | Floyd | (putting the shard of your mirror into the skull cavity to get your Floyd | hand free) Floyd | You turn the doorknob, careful not to pull it out. Since you've got Floyd | the other hand free, you're able to pry the door open with your Floyd | fingernails. Floyd | Floyd | The front door swings closed with a bang. Floyd | Floyd | > | olethros says, "oh ok" | |
| zarf says, "I've written zombie fiction but it wasn't icky." | ||
| inky asks, "wait, what?" | ||
| Johnny says (to Floyd), "take head" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/35 Floyd | > Floyd | > TAKE HEAD Floyd | Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Fang says (to Floyd), "out" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/36 Floyd | > Floyd | > OUT Floyd | Floyd | (first opening the front door) Floyd | The doorknob is loose, so you need a free hand to pry the door open Floyd | while you turn it. You're still holding the severed head. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "I am indeed enjoying watching you all play and comment, just as I predicted I would." | |
| Fang says (to Floyd), "drop head" | ||
Floyd ] Cloudliner KC7 Trailer 1/37 Floyd | > Floyd | > DROP HEAD Floyd | Floyd | The head bites onto your finger in an attempt to avoid being let go.

Floyd ] Outside the Trailer 1/38 Floyd | > Floyd | > OUT Floyd | Floyd | (first opening the front door) Floyd | You turn the doorknob, careful not to pull it out. Since you've got Floyd | the other hand free, you're able to pry the door open with your Floyd | fingernails. Floyd | Floyd | Outside the Trailer Floyd | Parked just uphill on the northern shoulder of the road is the Floyd | battered Cloudliner trailer. The road leads along the mountainside Floyd | from a pine grove in the west, and a sign points east towards the Floyd | highway. Scattered trees and shrubs cling to the slope below you. The Floyd | afternoon heat is on the wane. Floyd | Floyd | From inside the trailer, you hear the head wail, "Noooo! Doonnnn' Floyd | leeavve!" Floyd | Floyd | Then the front door swings closed with a bang. Floyd | Floyd | > | inky asks, "how did the door re-close?" | |
| inky says, "oh" | ||
| olethros says, "how does the head make a noise!" | ||
| Fang says, "magic" | ||
| Johnny says (to olethros), "It doesn't matter, it never matters." | ||
| olethros asks, "what is the purpose of life?" | ||
| Fang says (to Floyd), "e" | ||
Floyd ] Open Road 1/39 Floyd | > Floyd | > E Floyd | Floyd | You stumble along for what seems like quite a long distance. Your Floyd | dragging foot catches on a rock. With a crack, it snaps right off and Floyd | you plant your face in the hot asphalt. No matter, you can still crawl Floyd | until you eat enough brains to reattach it. Floyd | Floyd | Open Road (crawling) Floyd | You're crawling on an east-west road cut into the steep hillside. The Floyd | desert spreads out to the south, covered by just enough low scrub to Floyd | conceal a reasonably large predator. Floyd | Floyd | Your foot seems to have fallen off and it's lying on the ground Floyd | nearby. Floyd | Floyd | > | inky says, "hmm" | |
| Fang says (to Floyd), "take foot" | ||
Floyd ] Open Road 1/40 Floyd | > Floyd | > TAKE FOOT Floyd | Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Fang says (to Floyd), "x it" | ||
Floyd ] Open Road 1/41 Floyd | > Floyd | > X IT Floyd | Floyd | Your foot is severed from your leg. Bones stick out of it at odd Floyd | angles, and the sole is studded with gravel and broken glass. Every so Floyd | often it flexes and wiggles its toes. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Fang says (to Floyd), "e" | ||
Floyd ] Cracked Road 1/42 Floyd | > Floyd | > E Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Cracked Road (crawling) Floyd | Your path continues east over cracked, uneven asphalt. A glint of Floyd | chrome to the east might be a diner. Everything here is dry as paper Floyd | and there's not a cloud in sight to shade you from the harsh afternoon Floyd | sun. Floyd | Floyd | > | inky says, "we didn't have to kick the door earlier, I think" | |
| inky says, "maybe we did" | ||
| Fang says, "woo, diner" | ||
| Fang says (to Floyd), "e" | ||
Floyd ] Outside the Diner 1/43 Floyd | > Floyd | > E Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Outside the Diner (crawling) Floyd | A roadside sign announces the Uptown Diner to the north.
