If you haven't heard about this game yet, it's a free MMO puzzle/platformer. The game is hilarious, just read the messages on the video for an example. But if people get a bit too offensive, you can click on their name and ignore them. You can even go to your own room by typing /room then the room name. You could try, for instance, /room drunkduck, though I doubt anyone will be there.

The English server is at http://www.transformice.com/en/index.html but if that one is full, there's a secondary English server at http://www.transformice.com/en2/index.html .

Both servers are not responding! I need to play this!

Those were my two cents.

Oh shi-?

Obviously I must play this.

Edit: Wow... I spent so much time playing this and laughing...
Edit 2: Okay, how the heck do I wall jump? I can master it in Super Metroid, surely I'm pro enough to do this!

You have to hit the wall at a downward angle then it should give you an extra jump. Just keep hitting the wall like that and it will keep giving you extra jumps.

Oh god! I suck at being the shaman, so hard!

It also doesn't help that everyone's retarded.

It seems more like a social experiment than a game. It also doesn't help that they took down (or never had?) any help files. I had to look up a wiki just to find the controls for playing the shaman.

There was help info for playing the shaman. They weren't particularly good though, since it only briefly stated what the letters "c" "v" "b" "n" on your keyboard did. It failed to mention couple of things like that pressing the space bar would create objects that the mice could pass through.
Those were my two cents.

Yeah, but everyone tells you how to play when it's your turn as shaman. As soon as they tell you how terrible you are for not already knowing all those things.

Not when I looked. The faq page just took you to a blank page. The only info I ever got out of the game itself was instructions on how to go to another room.

There's a button you can click on next to the chatbox that says "Help".

I gave this a whirl, and luckily the stages that presented me with the shaman class didn't even need one. Whew, dodged that bullet!

This is insanely funny to just fool around in, but I often times find myself stuck in rooms with people that are actually serious about it. It's interesting that each room has its unique atmosphere as well - I'm just trying to find the ones having everyone screw each other over.

Yes this game is definitely a social experiment illuminating the hopelessness of the human species. Which is why it's so funny.

Watching actual people kill themselves over the exact same situation over and over, in the dumbest most short-sighted way possible... never gets old.

And yeah, this game so needs a Shaman Trainer. Otherwise I'll just forever fumble around when it's my turn.

Just go to an empty room to practice.

This is really quite awesome, even though it looks simple and dumb.

Why, I already have a top hat, moustache, and monocle.
My next target is to buy Kamina shades.
THIS NEW SITE SUCKS I'M LEAVING FOREVER I PROMISE, GUYS.
NOT BLUFFING, I'M GONE IF YOU DON'T FIX IT.
Oh god I'm so alone someone pay attention to me

I would have gone that route, but it turns out you can't have a pipe and a mustache D:

So instead of a monocle, I bought Kamina shades.
