『Title: Stop Joking and Draw Again, Please』
『How is this even possible? How could I not get in?
I wrote the post so fast, but how did I end up in 70th place, damn it.
Just move aside already.
30 minutes should have been enough, let’s draw again.
The first round is always a trial run anyway.
– I miss my own Small GetDevoured so much』
– LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL This idiot didn’t make it in the endLOLOLOL LOLOLOL
– Oh god, that’s so satisfyingLOLOLOL LOLOLOL
– Where do you live? I’ll kill you – I miss my own Small GetDevoured so much
– Wow, are you seriously not seeing this? This is insane…
– Stop whining, you didn’t get in either.
– I miss my own Small GetDevoured so much
– I’ll type in the chat

『Title: ?? I Don’t Understand』
『(Screenshot attached)
You guys watch GetDevoured’s broadcast, right?
Then of course you’d have screenshots of your rogue play records ready?
Why does it take two minutes to write a verification post?
I just can’t understand it.』
– As expected of ReformedGwangjil…
– Like broth to ReformedGwangjil’s soup
– This guy sees things through to the end no matter what…
– Is this the speed of a challenger…?
– He was a full minute faster than everyoneLOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL Crazy guy
– That he is faster than those who only type and add screenshots later, is this real?
– Honestly, I acknowledge that ReformedGwangjil got in
– There’s something different about this guy
– He plays rogue ten games a day just to look good to female broadcasters, idiot
– Female broadcaster (tape over the camera)
– If only she were a female broadcaster, damn it

『Title: I’m So Anxious』
『Long-time fans of GetDevoured would know this
In the very early days, she used to send handwritten letters and chocolates to viewers』
– Could it be that they’re doing something weird again with those 50 people?
– I swear, I’d die.
– I’d rather go pull a ceiling rope.
– What?
– For real?
– No, they kicked out everyone from broadcasting and paid those who broadcast as rogues with handwritten letters and chocolates.
– Wait, is this even Korean?
– True fans get pissed, LOL. With new people joining, even the terminology is screwed up, seriously.

『Title: Why do everyone team up so well only in times like this』
『Whenever rascal doesn’t speak and writes something in a notepad,
there’s non-stop ‘what’, ‘wait’, ‘whoa’, ‘wow’ going on. Fucking hell, LOL
Couldn’t at least one person relay or something?
Seriously, the chaos, fuck』
– Seriously, what’s being said inside? Please.
– From the looks of it, it’s something related to the cam, I’m 100% sure.
– Nope, they will make sure you never know what they’re talking about~~~ there will be no leaks, ever~~~ haha

『Title: Really, you should pick people again moderately』
『How long do you intend to keep going with the first 50 people selected?
And GetDevoured, I worry this might cause a controversy, so I’m saying it.
Such things should be done by cutting off subscription periods or mainly for those who’ve been there from the start.
Like with a broadcast point auction or something.
Why do it like this?
If you’re going with random selection or first-come, first-served, limiting it to about 10 people is understandable, but doing it for the entire group is bound to cause problems.
Joking aside, you need to reselect people, focusing on long-term subscribers this time.』
– Missing my own little GetDevoured intensely
– Change the automatic footnote, you idiot, LOL
– Thinking that this guy is trembling next to me, I don’t feel cold anymore. Thumbs up.
– Yep, I find it okay.
– Yes, indeed okay.
– Even GetDevoured would thumbs-up this.
– Actually, I’m GetDevoured, and I thumbs-upped it.
– Rogue thumbs-up.
– If this crazy person is in, imagine how intense the passive-aggressive trolling would’ve been.
– Seriously, it couldn’t have turned out better.
– Achieving the ‘Little One’ rank with a grin, ready to troll, but only to be ranked 70th, no way.
– Absolutely not happening, LOL

『Title: Buying a spot』
『Please sell it to me……』
– ??
– Is this for real?
– ㄴIt’s real LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL
– What is StarPork doing here? LOLOLOL LOLOLOL
– ㄴShe’s just a fanatic of GetDevoured…
– ㄴUnless it’s during a broadcast, she’s almost always a turret.
– StarPorkFork, you need to log out…
– ㄴIf I ask with my secondary account, no one will sell it to me.
– ㄴㄴWait, did you do this on purpose with your main account?
– ㄴㄴSeriously, her acquaintances must be insane too.
– Why don’t you just meet with them in person……
– ㄴIt’s different from a broadcast.

Today’s broadcast was unusually comfortable.
Was it perhaps because the large number of viewers had inadvertently felt overwhelming?
Maybe it was just easier to read the chat. When compared to seeing messages from nearly 20,000 people, viewing the chat of 50 felt like slow motion.
There was no spamming, which made it even calmer. Perhaps because there wasn’t a need for spam in this small gathering, but regardless, as long as you reach your goal, it doesn’t matter how you get there.
Even if I took a short personal time during the broadcast, ultimately joining the hero party later caused no issues. Yeah. That’s how it should be.
– Heh heh
“Today feels good. It seems like all the viewers are in a good mood too…….”
『Ah LOLOLOL The ‘viewers’ are all in a good mood, right~』
『For real, we don’t care about the ‘non-humans’ outside』
『We should do this more often LOLOLOL』
『Watching a broadcast while checking out deprived people feels so satisfying』
『Truly, satisfaction comes from deprivation……』
A small broadcast, should I do it often?
Those who frequented WeTogether and wrote about missing the small GetDevoured must be pleased. Yes, surely they are.
However, if there was one problem……
Contrary to my expectations, no one had left for over 30 minutes. I thought there would be a natural rotation of viewers.
Internet broadcasts are typically something you watch on and off. If the queue gets picked, you leave; if a more interesting broadcast starts, you switch……
I need to induce some circulation.
“Then……before we tackle the second issue, shall we conduct a verification process? I read recently that periodic ideological checks strengthen group unity, just like tough initiation ceremonies boost belongingness.”
『……?』
『What kind of book are you reading, teacher』
『Is she from some rogue gang or something?』
『What kind of verification is it?』
“It’s simple. If you have a logger in your recent records, you can’t participate. Let’s make the range……20 matches.”
It was a straightforward procedure. From the first-come-first-served verification posts on WeTogether, I would check the IDs, searching them would yield…….
The first eliminations came quicker than expected.
“… I’m very disappointed.”
Given that users who were generally familiar with the underground had experimented with the rogue class, it was somewhat expected, but… wasn’t it too much that the second-ranked player got caught?
The first place was a rogue in all twenty games. The ID was… Ah, this friend.
“Everyone, please follow the example of our friend ReformedGwangjil. The last twenty games were all rogue… How clean. ReformedGwangjil, if you leave your address, we’ll send you a prize… and anyone else who has such a clean record, please send a message now.”
『Is it okay to start now?』
『We don’t have to win, right?』
『Looking for a party to work on Kalsaren』
『Haha, of course! Rogue is the best』
“Anyway… as for the second place, ‘HowCouldILoveSuchRogue’. The ID itself is impure… and you played as a warrior. I’ll give you a chance to explain.”
Should I appoint a public defender? I considered it briefly, but no, I needed to hear the explanation directly.
『HowCouldILoveSuchRogue: Ah』
『HowCouldILoveSuchRogue: The positions overlapped』
『HowCouldILoveSuchRogue: I’m sorry, please forgive me just this once』
“… That’s strange. There was no rogue in the game, but the positions overlapped… Ah, you mean the underground overlapped. Couldn’t you have gone with a bot rogue? Then the logger could also say, ‘Ah, the underground overlaps, I’ll go up’, or something… This could have been resolved through conversation.”
『HowCouldILoveSuchRogue: That’s a bit;;』
『HowCouldILoveSuchRogue: Rather, I think the entire opposing team would have deserted due to a blackout』
… Guilty.

About 15 minutes later.
The 15 viewers were guided outside, and I spun the roulette on Tw*tch to gather five new guests.
For some reason, the number of viewers on Tw*tch had actually increased. Why? Had they used sub-accounts? I decided not to use the roulette for the next selection.
The illegal use of sub-accounts could not be tolerated. It had to be a fair competition.
The newly joined viewers seemed quite satisfied. Some expressed their joy with all sorts of curses, and others teabagged those who had just been outside a moment ago. And then…
『??? Not picking any more?』
『Small elite group it is~』
“Yes, now we have 40 people. We’ll keep reducing the number… let’s see. When there are only 5 minutes left, maybe even you can join for a game of KoK.”
There was a certain fun to the viewer participation.
Since it had been mentioned, how about a quick game of KoK to warm up? Moving the mouse to grab the queue, I glanced at the Discourse chat.
“Will you keep reducing… Yes, I plan to cut down a few people with each concern. As the number decreases, doesn’t it feel like we share more intimate concerns? So, the final five… Hmm, I’m still thinking about it. Maybe the final should be the last person standing… Ah. What about this.”
‘Phone Interview,’ ‘KoK Duo,’ ‘Online Drinking Party,’ and more, jotting down the ideas in a notebook.
『3333333』
『#1 is trash, teacher』
『If we do #1 and get a stuttering complainer, the mood will tank immediately』
『I’d like to see play with a Bronze level player ~』
『How’s your liver function?』
The reactions were quite mixed. In the end, being the last one standing was probably… yeah. Let’s go with that.
And then—
“I’ll decide on this later… The next concern, yes. Let’s write it on the chalkboard.”
I wanted to ask about this too.
