      Get in the car, loser, we're going on an Internet Roadtrip with a thousand backseat drivers YOU GOT A LONG WAY TO GO

      Get in the car, loser, we're going on an Internet Roadtrip with a thousand backseat drivers

      A contingent of viewers are obsessed with driving to Canada. “Can we get to Canada before GTA 6,” asks user Crab, thus doing the SEO-minded news writers in the viewership a real solid. The Canada faction are opposed by a posse of staunch Agarwal fanbois who are hellbent on making the vehicle circle Neal Street forever.

          Yeah I think today is the last day of the semester for all the students who have shifts at WBOR right now (and some of them are graduating), so they've all just been vibing with the roadtrip, taking song requests, etc.

          They've been aware of the roadtrip for a few days now. The car even went by their building a day or two ago

            Another WBOR shift just said their goodbyes as well, and recommended the roadtrip visit Jackman, Maine. Their word of the week was à bientôt.

            I feel so strangely melancholy for these people I've never met. I hope they have a good summer.

    Just watched as the car was finally on its way out of Bar Harbor after a full day trapped there and somehow did a 180 degree spin and headed back. Truly cursed

        Yeah, someone(s) has been botting the game hard all day, sending the car in circles, honking the horn dozens of times in a row (which prevents the car from moving), and generally doing the opposite of whatever chat wants.

        Until about an hour ago, when a counter bot(net) showed up to support chat, and now they're full steam ahead for escaping the island (for now).

          The admin of the Discord server just posted this in chat: ken_watanabe.jpg

          The admin of the Discord server just posted this in chat:

          I think the people should know...

          Over and over all day today I said "Only Neal can do something about the botting".

          Well there is more than one way to fight fire, and one of them is with fire.

          THATS RIGHT BITCHES ITS ME I AM THE COUNTER-BOTTER,
          IM PUTTING THE POWER BACK INTO THE HANDS OF THE PEOPLE WITH THIS ONE 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️,
          Ideally there would be NO bots at all. Looking forward to talking with Neal about how we can stop this problem from existing in the future. But we don't live in an ideal world, so guess who's fueled by spite, has a botnet, and want to put the power back into the hands of the people? That's right it's me bitch.

          Whoever is botting us to stay on this island, I know you're reading this. Try me. You won't win.

              Tragically they've been in a loop near the island exit for a few hours now, perhaps the night/European shift can pull through when the botter gets bored/goes to sleep EDIT: THEY’RE OUT
