First Served? Fan-first Served! (2)

Shin Hyerim's jaw gradually dropped.

"Wow..."

Her hand, which had been reaching for potato chips she had bought as a snack, stopped in midair as she fixed her gaze on the monitor.

On screen, the masked wrestler with a Jaguar mask—streamer Decibel—was racking up one impressive play after another.

[K. O!]

With a dazzling effect, golden letters filled the screen.

Decibel had achieved yet another victory in a ten-round match.

'No way, she really does learn extremely fast.'

It was only after the results were out that Hyerim resumed her halted motion. The chip in her hand made its way to her mouth, and her jaw crunched the salty snack.

〈Whoo! Thanks for the match!〉

Decibel cheerfully greeted her opponent, then returned to the lobby.

〈There really is no better practice than these ten-round sets. The patterns stick right away!〉

Delighted, she grinned, prompting Lee Gyeongbok to smile as well.

〈You perfectly understood my coaching intent. Plus, since you grasp things quickly, we were able to cut out wasted time.〉

〈The ten-round set is so close to rhythm games that I think it's easier to adapt. Honestly, trying to perfectly master a song, I can't count how many times I replayed it...〉

As she shook her head, the chat filled with laughter.

[-Whether it's rhythm game or fighting game, you only learn by taking your lumps, seriously lol]

[-For real, the skills needed are basically the same, right?]

[-5252, is this the parallel theory again?]

[-Is this the secret behind why Decibel's so good?]

Shin Hyerim laughed along and quickly tapped at the keyboard.

'Rhythm gamers and fighting gamers, the parallel theory—got to save that as a feature article topic for later.'

It was an idea: to write an article outlining the similarities between the two genres. If it ever became an issue, the hit count would be guaranteed.

'Godple's stream is basically my muse.'

Grateful for the source of inspiration, she heard Lee Gyeongbok clap his hands lightly.

Just from the sound, Shin Hyerim could picture what was happening.

〈Alright, good. Decibel, you're getting used to the characters through all these ten-round matches. I think now it's time to move from quantity to quality.〉

〈Oh? Already?〉

〈Yes, because you're now winning consistently against the Blue-tier players. Starting tomorrow, let's look for fighters at the Purple tier or above.〉

Lee Gyeongbok moved to wrap up the stream.

'Whoa, it's already that late...'

She quickly checked the time.

〈Okay! Got it! Honestly, last time when I just barely edged out Skullkim, I was a bit disappointed. I'll make sure to polish my skills properly this time!〉

With Decibel's enthusiastic voice, hyerim turned her attention back to the broadcast.

[-What the heck lol, conquering Blue tier in three days is "quantity" growth, huh?]

[-Quality growth includes quantity too, that's just common sense, right?]

[-Perfect Coaching isn't Only, it's With, though?]

[-Is this perfect coaching? What have I been watching until now?]

[-???: Looks like you haven't been properly coached yet?]

[-???: Ah, for those who call upon Godple's name, skill shall be granted!]

[-Are you all nuts or what lol]

The chat was scrolling fast. Lee Gyeongbok laughed at the whirlwind of comments and clapped his hands again.

〈Ah, almost forgot. I heard the organizers will be announcing the event schedule soon. They're just finishing up coordination with the participants right now. So, please wait just a bit longer!〉

Responding to the viewers' reactions, Lee Gyeongbok waved lightly.

〈Alright, that's it for today's stream. We'll see you again tomorrow.〉

〈If you want to watch more, come over to my channel! Thanks for tuning in!〉

The screen went dark with the two of them signing off.

[-Sniff... that was really fun today]

[-Wow, it ended right on the dot lol]

[-I'll check out Decibel's stream a bit later]

[-5252, is everyone eyeing the same thing here or what!]

[-Please, everyone stay. I want to leave alone]

As always, some viewers lingered to savor the aftertaste. But unlike before, that moment was much briefer this time.

Shin Hyerim was one of those viewers, too.

"Ha... this time, I'm definitely ordering one."

Midnight was fast approaching.

Normally, she would get ready to leave work, but she had something important to do.

'Logged in, check. UTCk synced, check.'

The "UTCk" program provided by the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science offered precise time.

'This feels just like signing up for courses at university.'

It was used in situations tied to multiple servers: for snatching up limited-edition goods, concert ticketing, and, most famously, for university course enrollments.

'Why does this make me so nervous?'

She opened and closed her fist, taking a deep breath to calm herself.

'It's fine, I have a secret weapon.'

Shin Hyerim's gaze shifted.

Next to her was a file with data distilled from streamer Purple's profile, something only she had compared to other fans.

'Countdown!'

The clock, updating by the second, struck midnight. Like lightning, she clicked her mouse.

"Ah!"

She let out a sharp exclamation. The purchase screen she went to after pressing the buy button went white and froze.

"Ah! Please, please!"

There were plenty of other fans gunning for this figure too. The clear cause was the server slowdown due to skyrocketing traffic.

"This is crazy. This is so unfair."

She was powerless. Hyerim anxiously watched the monitor, restlessly tapping her feet.

She couldn't even refresh the page—if she did, she risked losing her place in line.

Fortunately, shopFandom had plenty of experience selling goods and was prepared for this sort of thing.

[〈Do you know Purple?〉]

As the screen normalized, a pop-up appeared. Ready and waiting, she dove into the quiz with lightning speed.

[1. What does Purple's viewer participation event 'OTP' stand for?]

[2. What is the name of Purple's full video channel?]

[3. How many different types of games has Purple played on stream so far?]

[4. Purple once received a Capsule System warning. What game was he playing at the time?]

...

As stated in the prior notices, new questions were presented. But Shin Hyerim breezed through them without hesitation.

'This one...?'

Of course, some questions were quite tricky, as if to weed out casual fans.

[14. In the GunnerGround event mode 'Time Warfare', what percentage of Purple's data was used for the boss character?]

How on earth was anyone supposed to know that? But since there were only one or two of these, you could still pass even if you got them wrong.

'60%, I saw it in the making-of film.'

Shin Hyerim immediately recalled the answer. She finished the remaining questions and submitted her results.

[Your score is...]

['100' points! (Kemalcon)]

[Congratulations! Your discount coupon has been issued!]

A result window with emotes greeted her.

'I can't not post proof!'

There was already buzz in the fancafe—this result screen only showed up for those who scored 100.

The discount coupon was issued per account, so there was no need to redo the quiz. But many fans tried again just for the thrill of capturing that perfect result.

Shin Hyerim took a screenshot and immediately completed her figure order.

"Whoo! Yes! I did it!"

Being the only one in the office, she could savor her triumph in peace.

* * *

Around the same time, Eclipse's stream.

It was the chat segment before starting his Metal Punch broadcast.

While chatting was usually a warm-up to get the broadcast hyped, things felt a little different today.

He knelt down and let out a deep sigh.

"I can't bear to face Sir Purple."

Viewers filled the chat with question marks at his statement.

-?????

― Ecl Sir! What happened!?

― Don't tell me you're not joining the match?!

― Gasp!

Viewer concerns mounted, but Eclipse shook his head.

"That's not it. I gave my word to Sir Purple, and how could I pass up the chance to face such a strong opponent?"

His denial reassured the viewers for now. So what was going on?

"You all know well—I have always made it clear how much I respect Sir Purple."

He quickly explained the situation.

"However, I failed the qualification test to buy Sir Purple's figure this time. It made me realize there's so much I don't actually know about Sir Purple, despite claiming to respect him so much. It truly is shameful."

Finally, the viewers realized what had happened.

― Lollll, "figure" lololol

― I mean, he's not wrong lmaooo

― So Ecl Sir failed to buy the figure, huh?

― Can't you see how gloomy Ecl Sir is?!

― This is so cute, he's pouting because he didn't get the figure lololol

― This is why I watch Ecl Sir

Eclipse then bowed his head, looking at the camera.

"To reflect upon myself, I'll need your help, my followers. Let's look over the real exam questions and brainstorm together."

― Collective intelligence ON!

― What is this, the civil service exam? lololol

― Don't worry! Ecl Sir is a born knight, no wonder he's weak at the humanities exam!

― Humanities majors, assemble!

― Is he a tattoo artist?

― No, not that kind of tattoo! lmao

The viewers cheerfully rose to the challenge. Yet some voiced their doubts.

― But isn't Ecl Sir a member of the same knight order as Sir Purple?

― Right? Why not just get one through the back door?

― Did Godple not hook you up?

Why did he have to go through this hassle as a crewmate?

"What foolish talk!"

Eclipse's stream was never ordinary. The heavy tone disappeared and an aura of solemnity radiated from him.

"Suggesting such favoritism tarnishes Sir Purple's honor. If a trial is given, it must be earned fairly and squarely!"

― Scolded!

― One who knows not chivalry cannot be Ecl Sir's follower!

― A traitor! A traitor has appeared!

― Quick, perform an autopsy!

― Bring the executioner's block!

The chat playfully piled on. The accused joined in the fun, making mock apologies.

― I failed to appreciate a magnanimous spirit!

― Please, anything but exile!

― Fine, I'll take a 5-minute ban!

Eclipse pretended to clear his throat and straightened his stance.

"A knight must choose his words carefully. Since study awaits, I'll let it pass this time."

As the lively atmosphere returned, Eclipse began jotting down his wrong answers, notebook style.

* * *

Meanwhile, on Genome's stream.

Unlike Eclipse, Genome opened his broadcast with a screenshot on display.

"Get in here, low-HPs."

It was none other than a successful certification shot for the Kemalcon figure purchase.

― Just kicking our egos from the start, huh?

― Can't believe he's flexing already lmaooo

― Did you just throw down 200k won to brute-force it?

― For real, is this just pay-to-win?

― Chu-nom is Chu-noming again, as always

The viewers teased him instantly. Genome cockily stroked his chin.

"See, I knew you'd say that. I was prepared!"

He moved his hand, bringing up another screenshot: a 100-point result with emotes.

― This is fake! No, seriously, totally fake!

― Wtf, you got every question right?!

― There's always at least one super hard one, lol

― This is photoshopped (doesn't actually know for sure)

― Be honest! You used a deputy, right?! Didn't you!?

Fans doubled down with the teasing, to which Genome just shrugged with a smile.

"Watching this, it really does prove Korea's global wave is taking off. Don't you think?"

His sudden intro of "Hallyu" drew question marks in the chat, so Genome teased them more.

"If you don't have a Kemalcon figure, you're not a real Korean, right? These days you apparently can't even enter the country without one! And look at all these foreigners speaking Korean?"

― Lollll this build-up

― Top-tier trolling

― That look, I wanna flick him on the forehead so bad

― Wait, the figure is a citizenship document now? lol

― Kemalcon figures are used as passports, that's just common sense!

― Oh! The Kemalcon figure costs less than a passport!

― Starting the stream at max hype, for real

Genome grinned in satisfaction at the lively chat and closed the screenshots.

The tension was set—time to get to business.

"Alright, moving on—I've got news to share today. I said yesterday that I'd been picked as a biased commentator, remember?"

When he shifted topics, the chat responded with renewed interest.

"I also mentioned this: This 'Let's Go Set-To!' event will run with a YonGo match concept, right?"

― Bro, did you say GoYon match!

― Korea University always claims it's by Korean alphabetical order

― Yonsei University says the pronunciation is easier

― How would Genomes know about that?

-5252, is everyone in chat an elite uni grad?!

― If that's the Genomes average, what am I then?

― Saying it again? Trying to farm interactions?

― Hey Mr. G, things must be easy nowadays, huh?

As the chat grew messy, Genome clapped his hands for focus.

"Alright, eyes up! This isn't a rerun, it's definitely fresh news! And it's huge."

He smiled with confidence and continued.

"You all know MMA tournaments, right? A ring prepped in the center, the audience surrounding it. But what is Metal Punch? It's a fighting game too."

Genome illustrated it with real fight tournament photos, then snapped his fingers.

"And is this just any old event? No. It's Trha and Serengeti, the two main platforms, hosting. But what, just a plain game feed? That's not their level."

-??????

― He called out the platform's class?

― Mr. G! You ready to take responsibility for that!?

― Did you think before you spoke?

-5252, what exactly are you preparing!?

― Something big coming? Something big coming?

As the excitement built, Genome grinned.

"Seriously, you won't see a tournament like this anywhere else. This time, you won't just spectate via the screen but through a virtual studio—meaning you can attend in person, virtually!"

A virtual studio.

Which meant not just the participants, but even General viewers could log in via Capsule to watch matches inside together.

Naturally, chat reacted accordingly.

― Big thing is coming! Big thing is coming!

― This is the synergy between Godple and Shoulder, huh!

― The caliber of a tournament follows its participants—that's just common sense, right?

― Mom, sorry! Let me play just one more day! Mom, sorry! Just another day!

― This scale, though! This scale, though!

― Breaking: Police urge checking for missing children—everyone's inside Capsules.

― Lol, my mom keeps asking when I'm coming out, and I'm just in my room

The excitement was explosive.

But Genome wasn't finished.

"Now, picture this: In the studio, not only Troopers but also Serengeti viewers will come together."

As he spoke, Genome's avatar's top switched to a purple hoodie.

And that hoodie was very familiar to everyone watching.

"If you bought a Perfect Common Sense hoodie, you know. You get an avatar code, too. And what did I say earlier? The YonGo match. What jumps to mind? The signature colors of the two universities!"

The viewers quickly caught on to where Genome was going.

― This is wild, I've got goosebumps

― Wow, this is huge

― True, you can see everyone's avatars at once

If you joined the virtual studio, your own avatar would be visible.

That was the point Genome wanted to make.

"Right! What's the Tri logo color? This purple, right? If the Tri reps are competing, are we gonna sit this out? Nah—if we all coordinate and fill the place with purple, then? That's automatic home-court advantage."

― Just picturing it is amazing

― Ordered a black hoodie, but now I'm buying purple too

― There isn't a single Korean who hasn't bought the Perfect hoodie, right?

― Why go to YonGo match? Better to cheer for Godple!

― I couldn't get into a top school, but I am a Purple viewer!

― Gotta coordinate for this, obviously

The tournament date hadn't even been announced yet, but Genome's call-to-action filled the chat with excitement and unity.

"Guys, that day may be a PerG-Day—Judgement Day for Serengeti viewers..."

Riding the momentum, Genome added cheerfully:

"For us, the Tri team, let's make it a 'Purple Day' filled with purple everywhere."

One mind, one goal.

To dye the stands a brilliant shade of purple.
