Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 2 Episode 76
28. Proof (1)
-OMG Hawk Eye just lost his job lol
└he already did years ago…
└rofl
“Hawkeye just lost his job. “It’s been a long time since I lost it… I’m dying laughing.”
Joo Hyuk is translating the comments in a dry tone.
This is because Sanghyun jumped out of bed and asked what on earth was going on.
Even Sang-hyeon knows almost everything about English, but the only thing that is certain is that he hears it through Joo-hyuk.
-whaaat??
-what kinda program is that? Any guess?
└nothing…
└I haven’t seen anything can perform like that
“What kind of program is this? Does anything come to mind? None… I’ve never seen anything like that happen…”
Joo-hyuk adjusts his glasses and adds a general comment.
“First of all, the response seems to be that nuclear weapons appear almost certain. I can’t help it, since I posted the title like this…”
“Ah…”
Sanghyeon’s expression became blank.
You think everything is nuclear?
“There are compliments too.”
“compliment?”
Is there anyone who thinks it is not nuclear?
Joo-hyuk still scrolls down and translates as best as he can.
-Since when Chinese guy look so cute?
└I think he is Korean….
“Since when on earth have Chinese men been this cute? “He’s Korean… something like that.”
“….”
It wasn’t a very helpful response at the moment.
‘It’s nice to get attention, but…’
It’s a great honor as a player to be mistaken for a hack.
Provided that it turns out that he is not a hacker.
Sanghyun let out a sigh of relief.
‘Will it work out? that is?’
It reminded me of that unfair account suspension during Battle Large.
And in the old days when nuclear weapons were rampant, there were many streamers who claimed that they were being treated unfairly.
Sanghyun didn’t think much of it at the time, but now he thinks they may have been really unfair.
“Why are you looking like that? If we do this well, our channel can take another big leap forward. “There wasn’t much growth after the Lil Nant match.”
Does Joo-hyuk think this is an opportunity? You seem to be in a good mood.
“But like during Battle Large, the account is suddenly suspended again. “I thought you might be a little tired.”
Joo-hyuk waved his hand at Sang-hyeon’s concern.
“no way. It was an accident during Battle Raj. You won’t be suspended for just reporting it once. But….”
Joo-hyuk looked closely at the reactions to the comments.
“It’s because I didn’t read the harsh words that were said. Nuclear hackers have been a hot topic for a while, so there are a lot of people criticizing them. Of course, in the case of this video comment, that’s you.”
“I see.”
What are you cursing? Sanghyeon didn’t really care. It didn’t really hit me that strangers on the other side of the world were swearing in English instead of Korean.
I just hope I don’t get stopped.
“But I heard that games these days are immune to programs like hacks. “I don’t think this is it.”
In response to Sang-hyeon’s question, Joo-hyuk looked at a passage from Namu Wiki and recited it.
“As it is a PVP game that requires up to 1,200 people to compete in national team matches, almost all performance was optimized. As a result, it is unable to catch various annoying bugs or illegal programs. In fact, considering the scale, it would be useful to prevent fatal bugs…”
That’s right.
Even in Reel, which can be considered a high-performance game, up to 10 people fight.
If Civil M was a team battle, theoretically, as many as 1,200 people could fight on one battlefield.
They had to devote all their resources to optimizing and bug management for this enormous amount of data.
In a way, asking them to catch illegal programs is greedy.
“Well… I still grab it every time I find it. They say there has never been a hack so big that the game crashed. “It’s difficult to make a capsule-based game like that.”
Joo Hyuk read other miscellaneous stories.
There were cases where a certain country’s companies had a lot of sponsors and the balance of civilization was adjusted that way… things like gossip.
“Hey. “In countries where Civil Empire is popular, it seems that companies in those countries are subtly putting pressure on it by advertising it months before the national competition.”
I see It’s an amazing feeling.
‘But this has nothing to do with me right now.’
In any case, from the perspective of Sang-hyeon, who is currently only playing ‘Basic Battle’, things like balance between civilizations and national competition are things that are too far away.
“okay. thanks. Let’s get some sleep. now.”
Maybe it’s because I woke up while trying to sleep, but I feel quite sleepy.
He erases the thoughts from his mind and goes to sleep to prepare for tomorrow.
* * *
next day.
The three of them, Joo Hyuk, Sang Hyeon, and Jia, headed to a large warehouse-type mart.
This is because there were a lot of things to prepare in advance for the fan meeting.
Driving was, of course, Joo Hyuk’s responsibility.
Jia sat in the passenger seat and Sanghyun sat in the back seat.
“ah. “But almonds.”
Jia in the passenger seat looked at the rearview mirror and spoke.
“I checked the video you uploaded on the way. “Someone left a strange comment?”
“comment?”
What kind of comment is this?
Tiring.
She sent me a link in a message.
[Jia: (link)]
[Jia: This is it]
When I went in, it was one of Almond’s AllTube videos.
Upload time was about a couple of hours ago.
[Ah, this cool and heavy feeling….]
It was a video with an unknown title.
There was a scene where Almond grabbed the bow and slaughtered the horsemen.
“They’re shorts, right?”
It was a short video of less than 1 minute.
“huh. The process I’m working on these days. “First, we release it as one-minute shorts, and if the response is good, we edit them and make them into 20-30 minute shorts.”
“Ah…”
I was wondering why the Civil Empire video had already been uploaded, but it seems it was possible because it was only 1 minute long.
“Anyway. This isn’t important. “Look at the comments.”
I could tell without having to ask which comment I wanted to see.
It was the best comment.
-Amond. We are the administrators of Civil M. Your play is unbelievably cool. Maybe that’s why many people are questioning it…
It was such an awkward comment.
Below that, numerous comments have already begun to appear.
└ㅁㅊㅋ Jjinya?
└Put it up
└Amond ㅇㅈㄹ LOL Laughing like a dog LOL └No,
why did you eat it again LOL └Ah
, she doesn’t know about that! Mite! Just let me play the game!

“Maybe I should contact you?”
Sang-hyeon turns his gaze towards Joo-hyuk, who is driving.
“hmm. yes. But… let’s think about it after today.”
After a while, they arrived at the parking lot of a large warehouse supermarket.
* * *
On the way up from the parking lot to the supermarket.
Someone comes up and asks.
“hello. “You are Almond, right?”
At first, Sanghyun thought his fan recognized his face. Isn’t that what Joo-hyuk is saying as he storms out?
“ah. you’re right. You must have waited a long time. “There was a bit of traffic… I’m Kim Joo-hyuk, the manager.”
“no. I just arrived too. “This is planner Jeong Ho-yoon.”
Planner?
Ji-ah and Sang-hyeon just look at each other blankly.
He introduces himself as a planner and gives his business card to Ji-ah and Sang-hyeon.
“My name is Jeong Ho-yoon, a party planner and space director. “I came here through PD Jang’s introduction.”
Producer Jang?
For a moment, Sang-hyeon thought that someone was thinking about it, but was surprised when he realized it.
Wasn’t he the main producer during Evening Wide?
“ah. I asked for it. “I was wondering who might know someone like this, and PD Jang told me to contact him at any time if I need help.”
“Ah…”
Only then did Sanghyeon take a closer look at the other person’s impression.
Jeong Ho-yoon had a cool and somewhat delicate look. He is the type of person who is easy to work with.
“Shall we go?”
Ho-yoon Jeong took the lead along with Joo-hyuk.
After entering the mart, Jia and Sanghyun didn’t have much to do.
The two of us took care of it and put the things we needed for the party into the cart one by one.
“You can draw stripes on this balloon to make it into that almond shape you mentioned. These days, some balloons come out in the shape of a rugby ball like this.”
“oh! Looks good. “There’s a brown one right now?”
“yes. If the four of us draw with thick marker, we’ll probably be able to do it in no time. “For a party like this to look warm, it has to have a homemade taste.”
“Ahaha. Yes.”
Ji-ah and Sang-hyeon are in a situation where they can just eat in the back or choose wisely.
It was like children following their parents shopping.
“Let’s choose something to eat. almond.”
“okay. “I’m that one.”
“Huh… Scotch candy almond….”
“Why?”
“No…”
Jia smiled as if she couldn’t stop him and picked it up.
* * *
14:00.
Sanghyun was alone at home in Hugye-dong.
The grocery shopping at the supermarket ended before 12 o’clock, but Joo-hyuk and Jia had more to prepare with their planner, so they were still meeting at the cafe, and Sang-hyeon came home first for the broadcast.
He sat down on the computer desk chair where Joo Hyuk usually sat. He threw his head back and started spinning around.
“It’s been a while… I’m alone…”
It seems like the house left alone feels somewhat empty.
“You two have a lot to prepare… ah.”
Sanghyeon stopped spinning as if he remembered something.
Are you trying to turn on the broadcast first?
“Hmm.”
He goes to the kitchen, opens a cupboard, and takes out some almonds.
As expected, I wasn’t planning on broadcasting, I was just planning on eating almonds.
After scooping up a handful of almonds as desired.
I pour a glass of milk next to me and take it back to the computer.
“It reminds me of the old days.”
In the past, when Joo Hyuk wasn’t around, I often watched bubble gum broadcasts alone while eating like this.
“Let’s solve this.”
Instead of watching the broadcast, he tries to solve a problem he learned about today.
-Amond. We are the administrators of Civil M. Your play is unbelievably cool. Maybe that’s why many people are wondering…
this comment.
“But why did you leave a comment on my AllTube?”
Normally I would send it as a private message. Strangely, these guys even came to AllTube and left comments. I don’t know if I should say he’s good at his job or not…
Just in case, I went to Sanghyun’s email.
“ah. “I see you sent it.”
The administrator has already sent an email.
However, since Korean people rarely check their emails, I think they tried to contact me in advance somehow.
“There was also an in-game message.”
I clicked [Consult] in the in-game message without even bothering to click on the comment link, and I received a call right away.
[hello. My name is Yoo Hye-won, and the assigned person is Hyewon Yoo. You are the user ‘Amond’ who has now been reported as a hack user, right?]
It seems to be in real time.
[yes. you’re right. But no nuclear weapons were used. I don’t even know how to use it.]
Sanghyun first insisted on his innocence.
[yes. User. However, when monitored by the head office, it was determined that the user’s movements were at a ‘difficult to understand’ level.]
What does this mean? Sanghyun was embarrassed.
I had no idea they would take it this seriously.
“I’m good at it….”
At the same time, Almond never forgets to admire his own outstanding skills.
However, no matter how good your skill is, it is useless if you are suspended from the game.
He once again maintained his innocence.
[If you check, you will see that I have never written such a program. It’s just because I’m so good at the game.]
To be honest, I wasn’t that worried up to this point. Because I thought there was no way I could get stopped.
This is not a complacent idea. It’s a natural thought.
That’s because they didn’t use nuclear weapons!
[Ah, yes^^ We are not suspicious of you either, but there are currently 23 reports of users using illegal programs, so please understand that we must go through the verification process.]
23 cases?
What the heck….
‘Is it because of that video?’
Are people sane enough to report a complete stranger just because of that video? It was a little absurd.
[Ah yes. How do I check?]
[First of all, our observer will share the screen one-on-one to watch during your online connection time. You must agree to this.]
‘You’re watching?’
At best, it’s an analog method, at worst it’s an ignorant method.
It was not a method that a company that makes games with the latest technology would use.
Only then did Sanghyun remember the story Joohyuk told him today.
“…All performance was focused on optimization. As a result, they were unable to catch various annoying bugs or illegal programs…”
It seems that these people really do not have the technical skills to detect hacks remotely.
Sanghyun had no choice but to agree.
[Thank you for your agreement. The Observer will be watching three games in the coming days. The screen is shared with Amond’s capsule. Please note that the correct decision will be made later.]
I feel quite unfair.
But he too is now a streamer.
click.
[Screenshot saved.]
Even though I think it’s unfair, I find myself capturing the entire conversation.
[Sanghyun: Jiaya. Look at this.]
And I’m sending it to the editor.
It will probably attract quite a bit of attention.
[Jia: It’s thrilling~]
