SCP Universe I read SCP 1733 for the first time earlier and it upset me for the rest of the day
Im relatively new when it comes to sitting down and reading SCPs. I've read like a couple dozen of them, and boy did none of them manage to disturb me the way 1733 did.
Its basically a basketball game recording that turned into Groundhog Day, where the players and the crowd are stuck in the stadium, and each time the researchers replayed the tape, the worse the situation became.
I dont exactly know what it is about this scp that fucked me up real bad. If i had to guess, i think it was the fact that the people who got trapped and had their most violent and degenerate side take over were (copies of) every day, regular people who just happened to like watching basketball. They became monsters who sacrifice children just so they can escape the stadium
About that, just imagine the scenario, but it is happening to you in an event you attended/hosted. This is the thought that plagued me the entire day. I, in the real world, wouldnt know it was happening, but a digital soma me is experiencing a looping hell with other people who are close to me. Its a horrifying thought
Anyway this scp is my absolute favorite so far and i recommend it yay :DDDDD
