Holy fucking shit, can you imagine playing a game for 56 hours straight? I'm impressed at how meaningless these people's lives are. And to think there are dozens of them is fucking wild.

In my mind I see a ratty, dirty, malnourished gamer sitting at an old, 2nd-hand desk they found by a dumpster. They're surrounded by beer and coke cans on the desk and stained and matted carpet. Their old dinning room chair doesn't match any other furniture in the shack mostly because they get what they can from the same dumpster. The buttons on the mouse have outlined grease and sweat grime where there fingers are nearly permanently stuck. The computer smells like burning ash from the amount of dust and smoke residue that sticks inside. The only time they lift their hands off the filthy keyboard (the WASD letters completely worn off) is to roll the glass dick back and forth, adding to the slightly burned discoloration on their lips as the meth smoke swirls past their decaying, yellow teeth and into their blackened, soot-covered lungs. They haven't shaved in weeks, and the bathtub is rusty from the constantly dripping faucet and mold that has been growing for years. They have 3 sets of clothes they random rotate every few weeks, not that they clean them, since they simply sit on the floor next to the old, dirt couch they occasionally crash on when they run out of meth. They only productive thing they do is RMT some random items they spend half their time grinding out to barely keep the electricity running and the section 8 rent paid.

How is this even possible without a hard stim like adderall or meth?

It's possible because people botted it and openly admitted to it (thinly veiled) on the forums after the fact. Anyone with even amateur level programming skill can bypass the primitive AFK checks undetected. Even someone with no skills might be able to whip something together with a few youtube videos and some chatgpt assistance. Then it's just a matter of audio triggers to let you know when shit happens and cranking your speakers up and go to sleep. With a little more advanced programming skill you can automate the entire thing (looting and all) and such a script was pretty much openly admitted to being used by at least 1 person who also claimed to have gotten multiple manastones with it. Others shared account info and played in shifts but that's kinda doing it the hard way.

You have practically 0 chance of getting it legit without playing for unreasonably long sessions. I think all sane people can agree you should never have to play a game 24+ hours straight to acquire an item.

Trainspotting still works as a title too!

GM's can't even really police it either because bots and legit players look 100% identical in most /list camps. Everyones just sitting there waiting (multiple days in a row lol) for their turn. Everyone sitting there looks exactly like a bot

Just make it so you have to help on every kill or you get booted from the list.

It'll sort itself out quick.

this would require the sort of coding that /list was designed to avoid
