Place some ice on those breasts, anon. It's fun to read his shenanigans, but don't get this aspect of Oscar wrong. He is a That Guy, a character made with the exact intent of ruining rpgs. It may have been for mostly free-form PBP rpgs that most people don't care about, but he managed to ruin them nonetheless.
>Accidentally getting the starship's computer baked as fuck wouldn't be out of place in a Star Trek episode; weird science is what they do every day.
I'll concede on that point because that was definitely more of a GM impetus. But other evidence shows otherwise.
>While you could argue over whether or not knocking up Sailor Moon and getting the rest of the scouts to toke up constitutes "turning the game to shit", it pretty much comes down to whether or not you think that messing with canon characters turns the game to shit. And, honestly, if you're gonna play a bunch of canon characters, you're gonna change something eventually.
This is actually a point in favor of the Oscar = That Guy theory. It's a classic example of his method, by using the contrast of his character's overall normalcy (and effective uselessness) to act as a drag on the main story as a whole. He even mentions that the Sailor Senshi continue his story without him, turning it from a story of magical teenage girls saving the world from unknown evils to "pregnancy and drugs rpg."
>Oscar's quick thinking straight-up finishes off a boss in the D&D3 campaign. It killed a couple PCs too, but that happens in non-stoned campaigns. The only reason he got kicked out was butthurt over a bunch of mournful posts that got ignored, which–again–isn't really turning the game to shit. Stoners ignore shit. It happens.
He played a commoner in an rpg wherein every character is meant to fill some form of vital party role. And in 3.X, Commoner was flat-out the most useless class, one that was technically supposed to be relegated to NPCs only. Again, he was a drag on his fellow party members. You wouldn't forgive the guy in your game who purposefully made you carry his useless ass throughout the campaign.
>In the last one, it's literally just him cockblocking the leader of the werewolves. That's…okay, maybe it made the leader of the werewolves really unhappy. But Oscar had no hand in trying to hunt Oscar down and ritually slaughter him, which is what actually ruined the game for the others.
By acting as the tribe's human world gopher, he was placing himself at risk of such events. Albeit, he wasn't the main source of that game's downfall (that onus definitely falls upon the head of the tribe leader,) but he had his hand in that pie. Just as much as the tribe chieftan.
It's also worth pointing out that the 1d4chan page for Oscar omits quite a few of his stories, which more clearly paint the picture of Oscar as That Guy. Keep in mind, Oscar is a character that has been used by more than one fa/tg/uy, at least. Here's another instance of an Oscar player using the character in both a Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends RP and some kind of "Whatever the Fuck" Freeform including Shinji Ikari, Deadpool, and Arnold from "Hey Arnold!": http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/12669503/
One anon in that thread actually gives a very succinct point as to how a character like Oscar is able to thrive in such communities, where it seems like everyone and their pet hamster has the capacity for worldwide apocalypse. (pic related)
It also simultaneously explains just how Oscar is a That Guy character. Now, you might be thinking "But anon, those kinds of RPs were destined to fail and self-destruct anyways with that kind of player base." And to that end, you'd be right. But by utilizing that specific tactic, Oscar acts as a community-wide catalyst which facilitates that self-destruction. Oscar is a character that robs several linchpin members of those communities/RPs of the attention and validation they desperately crave, which causes them either to leave the community (and probably take a few other linchpin users with them) or to initiate some manner of tirade, both of which having the effect of sundering the community from within. That much can be seen in the first vampire story, the Star Trek story, the Death Note story, and the Foster's Home story.
