Description
DOWNLOAD FULL MANUAL HERE: www.mediafire.com/download/cpw…So, lucky sir and/or ma'am, you are now the proud owner of "Suddenly Statue", a new device made by the good folks at Solid Labs capable of turning people into statues and back again. Before you start using your device, take the time to read this manual so you can safely enjoy your device.
Well, this is about the most work I've put into something so pointless and is likely the strangest submission I'll ever make. This was originally a shot of a statue on a pedestal and I was going to describe the device. However, if you had just seen the picture without the description, you'd have no idea that it was an actual device. It was when I was laying in bed one night that I started to imagine exactly how such a device would function and what the manual for something that so clearly has no real purpose and yet would likely be so dangerous would read like, and well, you get this now. Enjoy!
My submission for 's monthly theme for May 2014.

If you mean the rar file, yes although you need a program to decompress it (just grab winrar or something)

And what I do in that game?

It's a joke manual for a (very unsafe) product that doesn't exist. It was done for a group's theme of the month, but I forgot what the theme was.

What do I do in the statue manual?

WOW, great idea!
I like the other materials that will soon be available like metals, especially precious metals!
I hope the Suddenly Sapphire version includes glass as well as gems.

This is a brilliant idea, and really well executed. Thanks for sharing it!
I was all excited to buy one, and then I got to the warnings about "uncontrollable melting". Yikes.
Maybe I *do* want to pony up the 40 points so I can read the safety information!

Hey, as long as you operate it according to these instructions, there won't be any problems!*
*statement not 100% accurate.

Do you have a “Safari-friendly” version, of the Manual/Download?
(Safari will NOT download the Manual — “Incompatible” File, most likely!)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's a rar file. I don't have Safari so I don't know what it agrees with.

I don't really know what RTFM is but yay?

DarthFugue pretty much spelled it out. It's a common glib response in tech-support circles. (Sometimes joking, often not.)
All joking aside, I seriously loved this piece. There's just something great about a fantasy device like this being presented in a totally matter-of-fact way. Makes it seem more real. I really enjoyed the page of legalese at the end, the Hi-Res edition is totally worth it. "5 out of 5. Would download again."
P.S. Is Solid Labs hiring? It sounds like a fun place to work.

This has to be the most clever thing I've seen in a while. And dat fine print is hilarious (We warned you about the melting, dude. We seriously did.) Well worth the download to read.

Thank you! I basically just rambled on for an hour with whatever came into my head for that page XD

lol, simply step off the device to end your transformation, good stuff!

What? I don't understand why you find such a simple step so funny.

A simply impossible step I honestly love catch 22s like that in stuff like this

Why are the legal transcript texts are printed so small? And to think I was enjoying the time reading the manual owo
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Ooooh, um, you don't want to read that stuff anyways. The device is perfectly safe!

Ah no worries, I figured that out XD

Because as every tricky person/company/etc. does, there are always GREAT things written in small letters on such things. lol

Good point.
Oh well, nicely done I would say. Wish I could flesh out some ideas, but I admit I'm running a bit dry lately @@

I really laughed when I read the last page. lol
Yah, this one is very creative... (And I've been running out of story/MMD ideas for quite a while already... >_<)

I will say this though, that is highly creative for a submission XD

Thank you! I highly doubt too many other people will make anything like it, that's for sure.
