The Update: Chapter 6
For Basix's parody name, I just ran his username through Hypertranslate until I got something I liked. Fun fact: For most, if not all OTFers, I just checked to see who was in OTFDAN the most lol
I also asked people in OTFDAN stuff so I could portray them accurately. What's funny is with the "forums" or "threads" question, @tagzaa was the first to answer and his parody character was the one calling it a thread.
This is a work of fiction and is not meant to accurately represent any people, places, or events it references.

In the notes of Chess.org vs. ChessChild
Desolate: Okay, remember what I told you about etiquette. It's been a while since I was in OTF so their customs may have changed.
Magnus: Remind me why we're acting like OTF is the Amazon Jungle?
Desolate: Ummmmmmmmmm
Magnus: If we shouldn't be glorifying clubs in OTF, then why would we be dissing them where they can't see us?
Desolate: Just don't do anything stupid.
Desolate: Oh, also
Desolate: In OTF the username colors mean nothing. Don't be alarmed if your username color is red one minute and green the next. Chess.com switches out the color palette based off the current holiday.

Desolate: Some of you know who FrostedWindow is. For those of you who don't the TLDR is that he got banned in 2018 and attempted a DDoS on CC in 2023 but failed. Well, he's back. And we need your help. He is planning a DDoS attack to be carried out on either December 31, 2025 or January 1, 2026. We don't know if this is the true attack date, but we have good reason to believe it is.
We want to fight back. But we need as many people as possible. So, we're asking you to join us. We will give you full credit where due. I plan to make arrangements in a secure document to try and prevent spies.
Yes, we know they could be seeing our plans right now. They were, as Magnus has been hacked. Dw, Agentneck helped him get rid of the hacker.
I, Owner Desolate of Chess.org vs. ChessChild, ask President BasicWhiteWhite of Off-Topic Forums to rally his subordinates and bring them to fight alongside the club members.
TreeHugger0818: We got rid of the formals last year-
Desolate: *coughs*
Confuse0987: Seems interesting.
Magnus: Somebody trying to DDoS the site is interesting?
Confuse0987: Yeah
I_Like_Top_Gun: ;-;
hidenseekzaa: I'll DM Basic and direct him to this thread.
SlytherinRules1942: *forum
hidenseekzaa: I'm pretty sure this is a thread...
SlytherinRules1942: Since when?
BasicWhiteWhite: I have been summoned. I cannot promise how long until I'm back, but I promise I'll read this.
hidenseekzaa: Since it was called a thread.
Desolate: Slytherin, stand down. It's fine.
Actually_Remembered_My_Name: I'd be willing to help.
SlyhterinRules1942: Call it a forum and we'll accept your help.
*Desolate blocks SlytherinRules1942*
A few minutes later
BasicWhiteWhite: After careful consideration, I have decided it is worth our time to help you. Post the document link here and we shall help you.
Desolate: Thanks.
[insert link to a document]
In the DDoS Defenders document
Desolate: Don't ask me how I'm keeping the bad guys out. If I told you, it'd be harder to keep them out.
Agentneck: So long as they stay out.
Desolate: Okay, stopping a DDoS attack. How on earth do we do it?
BasicWhiteWhite: We challenge their leader to a game of chess. We win, they call off the attack. They win, we let them carry it out. Only the white hackers on our side will spectate the game, infiltrate them, and start spying.
Daniel777: That's not how it works.
BasicWhiteWhite: I'm just throwing out ideas.
Daniel777: Okay, this is a secure place. Me and Placeholder are spying on the attackers. Their leader is Frost, they're planning a weakening attack on December 30 and the DDoS on the 31. IDK how many of them will be online on Christmas, but perhaps we could strike them somehow on the 24 or 25.
Desolate: Operation Santa Claus. We give ourselves Christmas related callsigns for the attack if possible. Where do we attack? Their discussion chat or Chess.com without attacking Chess.com?
Placeholder: Their discussion chat. I'll get you the code.
Desolate: Alright. We'll be different divisions. I'm the mission leader, and I'll be Elf 1. All hackers are Reindeer Team. Daniel is Reindeer 1. The main spammers are Elf Team; I'm their leader. We'll figure out other divisions as needed. Let's get planning!
BasicWhiteWhite: Anyone notice it's the club people planning everything?
Desolate: Um...We need the numbers. You can be Elf 2, my second-in-command.
BasicWhiteWhite: Fine.
