I know it’s easy to be confused about what caused the catastrophe shown on this page. But, the answer is actually quite simple. No one bothered to read the warning sign on the wall of the server room:

ACHTUNG!
ALLES TURISTEN UND NONTEKNISCHEN LOOKENSKEEPERS!
DAS KOMPUTERMASCHINE IST NICHT FÜR DER GEFINGERPOKEN UND MITTENGRABEN! ODERWISE IST EASY TO SCHNAPPEN DER SPRINGENWERK, BLOWENFUSEN UND POPPENCORKEN MIT SPITZENSPARKEN.
IST NICHT FÜR GEWERKEN BEI DUMMKOPFEN. DER RUBBERNECKEN SIGHTSEEREN KEEPEN DAS COTTONPICKEN HÄNDER IN DAS POCKETS MUSS.
ZO RELAXEN UND WATSCHEN DER BLINKENLICHTEN.

So, so much grief and bloodshed could have been avoided…

Does 911 have Muzak? If so, are the songs played as appropriate to the call as the random Gravatars are to these comments?

Y not u can haz both?

Things would have gone a lot better for HR if the five hadn’t fallen apart on him. The ultimate gaming experience really cost them an arm and a leg, but they were willing to take the plunge anyway. That took guts. I think the biggest problem, however, was HR’s god complex, which ultimately got him in (a tube filled with fluid that was) over his head, and in the end, he didn’t have a leg to stand on, ethically speaking. His quest for power ended only in a broken heart – that or a punctured lung – with his life’s work lying shattered around him.

Agreed. Those tubes were only ever designed for short term use, not the prolonged session they ended up with. So either he had to personally retrofit them for long term, (because he wouldn’t let anyone else in that room), or as many suspected, the bodies failed long ago, and were in a vegetative state until the final big bang.

Another possibility is that when HR was shot, and everything went kablooey (Technical term) there was a massive power surge, electrical or magical, and the power arcing through their bodies and attempting to ground through the floor, choose one leg as the path, and burned/exploded the tissue and bone on the way out.
