    It involves a bad marketing campaign, a 2DMMOTPS made in Korea, a severe case of mononucleosis and a .BAT file

    So I guess that you got infected with kissing disease by a computer virus named Ourous due to a (literal) viral marketing campign of some retro-style Battlefield-Heros-esque TPS?

     

    Cool story.

    (Yes,I know,you're probably joking.)

     Actually, I'm not joking at all.

     

    The 2DMMOTPS was called MetalAssault (distributed by AeriaGames, the Korean version is called GigaSlave). I was nominated as a GameSage (volunteer GM) for this game, and held the position until Aeria shut down the servers about a year later. The failed due to lack of advertising on Aeria's part.

     

    I made many interesting freinds during this time, it was also the only social interaction I had because I was sick with mononucleosis for a period of 2.7 years. 'Ourous' comes from a set of charachters contained in a .BAT file used in the updater for the game.

    One day I was playing with fire and gbmb (gbmb was a new element at the time) and suddenly the two carved out an ornate letter "O" in the wood I was using. The remainder looked a bit like an "a" so I wrote an "s" and the t and found my name.

     

    You can still see the original logo in this save
