Please Do Your Debauchery After You Die - Chapter 139
Episode 139: Dopamine is Flowing
Finally, the Poco Server has been shut down.
Virtual streamers, with exhausted voices, shout for freedom.
While the victory ultimately went to Group 6, one wonders what meaning there is in that.
It feels as if the win secured by the alliance of Groups 1, 4, 5, and 6 ended up being somewhat vague.
In the Pann Bub Gallery, a continuous outcry against the Poco Server was held until the end, and in the FM Community, an apparent reluctance to remember led to just a few posts about the winning group, with no further mention.
On the other hand, as shadows deepened, light became more pronounced.
The failure of the Poco Server has now sparked an interest in the only remaining Lena World.
Especially for the Buttpicking Viewers, there were no remaining options.
They had no choice but to flock over and pray for their main base streamer to be selected as an additional resident in Lena World…
And it wasn’t just the Buttpicking Viewers flocking over.
Noteworthy streamers like Mist, Haisuya, and Dananyang joined Lena World as well.
With their fans joining in and the viewer count increasing, even the upper floating crowd began to take an interest.
Moreover, the ongoing viral trends in the FM Community played a significant role.
The topic became a hot point among streamers, too.
And Mr. Lena’s Land didn’t miss this opportunity, diligently stoking the fire.
“We are recruiting new residents. Everyone, please leave comments. And for partner streamers, there is a Taesan selection process, so feel free to leave a message.”
Streamers rushed to leave comments.
Mr. Lena’s Land was truly riding high.
Ah, now Lena World has firmly established its place.
As this Saturday’s expanded second Purge Day was announced, he also mentioned the expulsion of residents.
He claimed that every resident of Lena World should own at least one house.
He threatened to expel residents who failed to comply.
“I will give you a week. That should be enough. I’m not being unreasonable…”
Viewers desiring dopamine rushed over, supporting Mr. Lena’s Land’s statement.
What? They still don’t have a house on the server?
Residents without affection for the server are out!
From this point on, the “Server Dogs” began to rise.
This term refers to malicious viewers who excessively immerse themselves in the server, going beyond individual streamers.
Later, Yuseona viciously criticized the Minecraft server she opened.
Is it perhaps because the dopamine from the Gold Cup is something no one can resist?
“By the way, how’s Vtopia doing?”
What!? Is today the Final Audition day?
So caught up in the Poco Server and Lena World, I hadn’t been paying attention.
Well then, let’s do this today!
A new dopamine has appeared.
***
There was a reason for the lack of interest in Vtopia among Buttpicking Viewers.
Despite everyone seemingly looking the same like Hakkoh, there are distinct “levels” among them.
It’s similar to how participants in the Ugaidol Audition receive tags.
First-round eliminations, second-round eliminations, third-round eliminations, and those reaching the final stage.
In this sense, the participants in Vtopia, aside from a few, lacked recognition.
There were quite a few individuals who got eliminated in the first round of Ugaidol Audition.
Moreover, as mentioned earlier, starting too late as a late entrant was a major reason.
Having already taken a significant portion of the narrow virtual pie, with Frika and Decrescendo, what remained was limited.
A difficult situation that leaves one feeling awkward just hearing about it.
But who planned Vtopia?
It was Yuseona, a key member of the strong mid-tier lineup of Pangea TV, with extensive connections to big company streamers.
To penetrate this crisis, she decided to use a cheat key.
She invited none other than Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik as a judge for the final round.
Moreover, she granted him a free pass, instilling immersion in his fandom.
This bold choice stands out compared to Sayoh, who wishes to control everything under her reign.

Special Judge: Buck Minam Park Bong-sik]

As soon as the broadcast started, thanks to Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik’s fandom, the viewer count surpassed ten thousand.
The problem was, unlike in the Ugaidol Audition, most viewers were fans of human streamers.
Right from the start, malicious comments popped up in the chat, questioning why Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik was participating in this content.
As the managers quickly began to kick them out, it felt like chat quality control was finally taking place.
“Ah, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.”
The screen lights up, revealing Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik leisurely entering with a cup of coffee, while Yuseona is already seated.
They exchange brief greetings.
Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik, having an afternoon schedule, decided to proceed quickly.
“I actually came prepared and studied about Vtopia a bit.”
“Really? You studied?”
“Yes, yes. I checked out the finalists. By the way, how many people applied for Vtopia?”
“The total number of applicants? I was surprised when I checked too—140 applicants!”
“What!? 140 people?”
Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik’s trademark exaggerated reaction exploded.
The chat was flooded with “LOL.”
Clearly, he aimed to highlight the surprising number of applicants, seemingly to elevate Vtopia.
“Is there really that many virtual individuals on Pangea TV? 140 people?”
“I was surprised, but there are even more. I saw on the site that it’s about 600 or 700? But apparently, LebitTV has about 4,000, so by comparison, it’s just crawling at this point.”
“Wow, the virtual market is enormous. By the way, there was someone among the applicants who did CK with me. Was it Choi Eun-bin? I heard she was one of the first to crossover into virtual.”
“Yes, yes, she had a significant first-mover advantage.”
“No, I was genuinely shocked. I was browsing broadcasts, and suddenly seeing virtual streamers with 5,000 to 6,000 viewers made me think I had entered the wrong platform.”
Undoubtedly, this showcased the skillful talk of a big company streamer.
There were no hindrances in the flow.
Moreover, it wasn’t just random chatter.
He subtly mentioned Vtopia promotions or showcased the advantages of the applicants he had studied ahead of time.
Wow, is this the power of connections?
Getting this kind of lip service from Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik, known as the king of Pangea TV, is impressive.
“But, Sister Seona, what was the motivation behind starting Vtopia? Hmm? Does being virtual make money?”
“It’s not that it makes money, but if you think about it, I’m also a former no-cam streamer. I was a Durahan, simply posting a drawn character and streaming. I couldn’t help it without the virtual technology back then. So, I’ve been interested for a long time, but I couldn’t just suddenly say, ‘I’m Seona-chan~!’ and start being virtual.”
“That’s true.”
“So I thought, if I create a virtual crew and get involved and mixed in, my fans will become familiar with virtual too. Also, as I get older, I plan to rebrand and shift to virtual.”
“Wow! So you’re thinking on a big scale? Sister Seona has it all planned out.”
Mr. Buck Minam Park Bong-sik appeared to clap in admiration repeatedly.
– For real, switching to virtual when aging seems like a golden ticket. No matter how much you make up, a 30-year-old can’t compete with 20-year-old skin. Switching to virtual by then would be perfect.
– I heard somewhere that with virtual, you don’t even need makeup, which is super nice, haha.
– But isn’t a 30-year-old a henhouse…?
“But I’m curious about one more thing. I’ve had CK with virtual folks a few times, right? Why is everyone’s candy power so immense? Huh? The funding really flows in. Don’t you think? Like Seoa and Orikung too.”
“Bongsik, I felt the same way watching virtual broadcasts. Those folks stream just like we did at the beginning.”
“Our beginning?”
“Yeah. They value and treat each fan with care.”
“Wow, so that’s why fans get so immersed. They’re also funding a lot to support the main base streamers.”
“Exactly, exactly. That’s how it looks to me.”
“Certainly, that initial passion and sincerity are important. Just look at us. Now, even 100 or 1000 donations are just shrugged off with ‘Oh, thank you.’ Anyway, it’s like that, right? We should do CK more with the virtual folks.”
“I agree! We had a great time with Orikung last time, roasting 40,000 twice.”
“Wow! I remember! Orikung is truly the best. The Kungmin Bank, Kungmin Bank. I lost nearly 100,000 to Seoa but won 80,000 from Orikung. By the way, what’s Orikung up to these days? I feel like doing CK again after a long time.”
– T_T Orikung has fallen while playing Minecraft.
– Kungmin Bank is bankrupt, haha. They received 160,000 in server funding and exploded.
– Orikung fell, so consider him a returning candidate for LebitTV; don’t look for him.
Out of nowhere, Orikung is getting roasted in the Vtopia Final Audition broadcast.
The audition hasn’t even started yet, but already dopamine is flowing.
