The Polybius Mystery:

Polybius is an arcade cabinet described in an urban legend, which is said to have induced various psychological effects on players. The story describes players suffering from amnesia, night terrors, and a tendency to stop playing all video games. Around a month after its supposed release in 1981, Polybius is said to have disappeared without a trace. There is no evidence that such a game has ever existed.

The game has shown up in movies & tv shows like The Simpsons and Wreck it Ralph.

I want to believe

absolutely my favorite urban legend by far, I used to follow a forum dedicated to just pooled information about cabinet sightings in old scrapbook photographs and family members who claim to have seen or even played the game. most claims on the forum say the can’t really remember anything about the game down to even what kind of game it was.

I still love this

The Polybius legend is so fricking creepy because it seems like it could actually be true O.O

i have never heard of this

it is SUPER creepy though wow

Real life is full of so many CREEPY MYSTERIES O.O

IT IS

AND I LOVE READING ABOUT THEM

YYEEEEEEE

Real life Creepy Mysteries are one of my fave things!

tho I have too often made the foolish mistake of reading about them when alone in the house when it is dark ;_;

The really fascinating thing about the Polybius urban legend is that most of the individual elements are confirmably true.

For example, some early arcade games really did have a tendency to induce brief amnesiac episodes in players, owing to the fact that they triggered photosensitive epilepsy; prior to the advent of arcade games, bright flashing lights in rapidly cycling colours were rarely encountered in everyday life, so most people with photosensitive epilepsy didn’t know they had it, and there was little public awareness of the condition, creating the impression that the games themselves had some sort of mystical power.

Likewise, many early video arcades really were subject to covert monitoring by law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, though it had less to do with unauthorised medical experiments and more to do with the fact that video arcades were suspected - sometimes correctly - of being fronts for illegal gambling rings.

Basically, a whole series of unrelated events added up to a single freakishly plausible conspiracy theory. Taken by itself, each claim made by the theory could be independently verified - it’s just the connections between them that were spurious.

Attention non-artists who commission artists: don’t fuckin do this???

Actually had someone do this to me too. Was doing a art stream, it took me over 2 hours to do his inked commission, he got a refund cause ‘it took too long’ that he figured I wasn’t going to do it after I gave him the file.

Don’t do this. Do not.

I’ve had this happen to me with a $350 comic :/ I had already finished it, it was full color, 6 panels and had a full bg in every panel. I was lucky in that I didn’t spend him money yet, but it left me without funds. I’ve also had the above happen to me as well.

Don’t do this shit to artists. We’re people too. Drawing for you is more than a hobby. It’s a job.

Use Paypal Invoices. 

I cannot stress this enough. That shit helps A LOT when it comes down to Paypal refunds/disputes.

There’s a description box that let’s you put in what the product is/how long it’ll take/yadda yadda, and then there’s another little memo box that only you and paypal can see where you can say it’s a digital commission and doesn’t require shipping (So Donald Mcfuck can’t say that they never got their commission).

And there’s also a box for your Terms & Conditions where you can say, if you have any conflicts/want a refund - email me, or you can actually tell the user that this is a digital commission and they won’t be getting a hard copy of it.

ARTISTS. PLEASE USE PAYPAL INVOICES. it will SAVE you.
And to: the people who do this to artists – Fuck you. It’s okay if you change your mind and want a refund. But freaking TALK to us and let us know what’s going on. Let us WORK with you.

ALSO A HUGE TIP: Invoices paid will automatically set up a shipping notice which, if not fulfilled, can land you in SERIOUS hot water with PayPal. Since a lot of artists don’t print and ship the commissions, this is a huge problem.

However! Totally manageable. Just go to your PayPal, scroll down to find Seller Preferences

>> Shipping Preferences

>> Display Ship Button. Make sure all the boxes are unchecked. Then you’re all set!

As a big supporter of artists, don’t you ever fucking dare fuck over an artist like that. Like don’t. And if they take their time to do a good job, don’t shit all over them for it! Don’t be a fucking ass hole. Just don’t. These people put a  LOT of work and time and effort into their artwork. Just don’t be that guy. Often times these artists aren’t even getting what they deserve in compensation. 

If you can’t wait a couple of hours for someone to finish a commission then you shouldn’t be commissioning art in the first place. What fantasy land does this guy live in where quality art takes less than an hour?! Ugh.
