Forkhouse 5: 6 days left

With Hardfork 21 now a mere 6 days away our feeds will be littered with nonsense from people telling us how it is going to be when it hits. It would be churlish of me not to join in.

Join me in the second part of my most ambitious series yet...

We don't have much time, you have to let me OUT??!

I pounded my fists against the metal door of my cell for what seemed like the hundredth time that day but again, as before, there was only silence.

I had no idea how long I had been here.

I had no idea how they had gotten me.

I had no idea, really, who they were.

Like most people, I lived an uneventful life. Sure I had heard of the Hardfork. I had even heard of the DAO but I had thought nothing of it.

Won't affect me.

I had snorted to one of my online friends.

And now, here I was. Fucked.

Trapped in a bland and empty cell. How long had it been, days?

Who are you?! What do you want with me?

I slammed my body up against the door again. There was a small hatch in it just about eye height. I had never seen it open. At least, I didn't think I had seen it open.

I stepped away and paced back and forth.

Time seemed immaterial here.

I felt as if I were going mad.

You have to help me? They are going to go ahead with the Hardfork, it will be a disaster for all of us!

I railed at the door once more, my hands leaving bloody streaks against the unforgiving metal.

We mustn't let them!!! I mean 50/50? If we shout loud enough they will hear us?! They will stop it!

Again no response.

I stepped back from the door shaking my head.

Then a muffled noise approached, resolving into footsteps which stopped just beyond the door.

The hatch slid back. Dark eyes peered in at me. Not a hint of softness in their gaze.

You think the Hardfork so bad?

My jailer spoke softly.

Haven't you heard me? They're changing the curve for God's sake?! And don't get me started on the SPS??!

I spat in outrage both at the question and at my captivity.

The eyes blinked and the voice spoke again.

What if I told you... That the Hardfork had already happened?

I staggered back in horror as the hatch slammed shut. My Jailer's ghostly laughter receding off into the distance.

No... Nooooooooooooooo...

Sort:  

Is there a competition over who is more doomed and who will be more affected than anyone else? :D

If there is, I'm gonna do my best to win it!! Hehe

Ohh,the horrah! What evah will we do??

I have cleared a space in my house for the new alien overlords to live in whilst they conquer Scotland. I think. :0D

Can't be, can it? :O

Spent hours messing with my auto votes last night and guess what, wrong move!

Change them on Fork day I hear. As for me, I'm not changing them again so I'll be burning votes for the next week. Soz!

I'm burning em as well actually, shit. I never thought of changing them host now but really should! A job for tonight!!

I cannot be arsed, fell asleep doing it last night!

It is a pain in the chuff. I might take till the weekend!

Sure is, and that's what I'm worried about - got better things to do like ponder writing a post and decide to f it all off and go to bed :)

I've done it!!! All done. I feel like having a celebratory beer except it's a school night, meh.

I noticed you are a one for the late night posting these days! There's always the morning!! :0D

Bravo, a sterling effort. As long as it's not a 12% beer i'm sure you could sneak one in?!

I have been posting later, it takes all day to curate and claim tribe tokens!

That's true! 8 wish I had the time to split my shit up and curate like mad on the tribes. You agree doing awfully well!

I would normally not hesitate but the wee guy is ill and the notes have been nightmarish. So sadly no beer!b to the weekend at least :0)

We mustn't let them!!! I mean 50/50?

It's worse than that, 45/45 if I read and understand correctly...!

You are correct once the 10% door the SPS is taken into consideration!!!

This is just no good at all, I think we should strike.. picket line et al..

And one of those burning brazier type things to stand beside and a song, a good stirring song to sing!!

@meesterboom hello dear friend. Some time ago I am posting on new platforms, such as ¨sportalk¨, ¨neoxian¨ there already 50% / 50% is implemented and the truth is not bad. I am concerned about the theme of the flags. I think I can be vulnerable in that regard.
I wish you a great night

I actually think it will be good, I am just being overly dramatic :0)

I have seen you in sportstalk, @spamfarmer has been supporting you! That's me! :0)

@meesterboom Hooo what a surprise, I would never have imagined it, I am to return the vote and more than 20 days ago I visited you and I see that you do not publish, did you not like the platform?

I am trying to make my way on the platform, and the other is Spanish trive where I put my hopes.
Thanks for the support
I wish you a good night

I am not very sporty! So I have nothing much to write about. Which one is the Spanish tribe?

There are two really I pass the links, in the second I have no investment
https://www.spanish-tribe.com/@jlufer/feed
https://blogs.blo64.com/@jlufer/feed

I will have a look, might help my atrocious Spanish!!

@jlufer Wait until you find out that it's all been a lie and all the platforms are really just the same place dressed up differently?! 🙊🙉

SteemPeak gets access to all the platforms in one nicely dressed package^ :p
