Defrag
A wild-eyed man runs up from one side of the bar, his glasses slighly askew and his curly hair a few steps beyond tousled. He appears to be panting slightly. "Did you say 'defrag'? I am the DiskKeeper, are you the MasterKey?"
"Uh, no," you reply. You say this not because honesty is the best policy, but because the best policy generally involves absolute denial of everything.
The man looks disappointed. "Oh, well, if you see her, would you give her this?" and hands you a small metal device like a magnet with wire wrapped around it. He sniffs the air and shuffles off, snuffling to himself.
You got an item: degausser
Wasn't sure how to add this to the page.--Jesus 05:46, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
Malk being lazy - template and move will be required for the Green Horseshoe of Death via exe
same - Spider Crawler via FTP
Things tried that didn't do anything: software, tequila --Muhandes 17:14, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
Data Dump:
Error
Error 0000: No errors found, restarting computer.
Well okay then.
After a little more fiddling you get some part of the game working and manage to explore for a little while. You gain 318 XP.
True Invalid variable type.
Hey! Who does it think it's calling an invalid?
You get an effect: Boolean (Added for 65 minutes.)
Eject Non-system disk or disk error
Replace and strike any key when ready
Well, you'd replace the any key, but you can't even find it. There's no way you'll be able to strike it if you can't complete those first steps. Oh, wait, there's a floppy disk in the drive. Of course. You pull out the floppy, at which point the whole system crashes, and you climb out.
You get an effect: Floppy (Added for 65 minutes.)
Format You get a message that says: Proceeding with the operation 'delete' will erase the contents of your hard drive. What do you wish to do? [proceed] [delete]
Wait, what? You quietly hit the reboot key to get away from that trap.
After a little more fiddling you get some part of the game working and manage to explore for a little while. You gain 318 XP.
Break Cancel failed. An unrecoverable error has occurred. Cancel? Okay/Cancel
You look closely at those buttons. Do you want to cancel the cancel in order to continue, or okay the cancel to stop? Or are you canceling the first cancel, in which case okay continues, where canceling the canceled cancel really does cancel it? Argh!
You solve the issue by closing your eyes and hitting a few keys at random, figuring whatever you get would be better from pure chance would be better than choosing it yourself.
After a little more fiddling you get some part of the game working and manage to explore for a little while. You gain 318 XP.

Print: Not a typewriter.
Well, you never!
You get an effect: Keyed Up (Added for 65 minutes.)
Easteregg: Calendar subroutine replies: incorrect date. variable 'Easter' != TRUE; No egg for you!
After a little more fiddling you get some part of the game working and manage to explore for a little while. You gain ??? XP.
Also, I think Muhandes has the right idea. We should be listing our negative results, to reduce duplicate effort. Here are some more commands that only give "How?" and "What?": password, login, logout, logoff, script, shell, cal, cookie, pwd, backup, mount

Here are the effects still undiscovered: Power Point, Acronym Fever, Access Denied, Soft Wear --Muhandes 08:46, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
Went through and alphabetized the list in red at the top of the discussion page as well as the actual page itself. For the page itself I alphabetized all the results that gave the same result, and then alphabetized within a category (i.e. fight, xp, or effect) based upon the first word for each result. It should be obvious how to add to this. either that or add it on the page here and I will add it in myself.

All the effects muhandes mentions above have been found. --blackmatter615 09:05 PM Twilight Time May 5th 2010
Me: i was wondering if you were willing to divulge the total number of words that work for the fail option in arf
Ryme: Total number of words, or total number of distinct outcomes?
Me: im interested in knowing when it is fully spaded, so total number of words that dont produce the "Sorry?/What?/How?" outcome
Ryme: Uh, about 270, plus or minus five. It's very hard to keep count.
Me: thanks
Ryme: keep in mind no fewer than a dozen of them are ridiculous, or not related to anything, and another dozen or two may be weird spelling variants.
--blackmatter615 11 May 2010
There are 110 words that produce results other than "Sorry?/What?/How?".
--blackmatter615 17 May 2010
Currently there are 132 words that that produce results other than "Sorry?/What?/How?", about half of how many Ryme said existed.--Patojonas 04:19, 5 June 2012 (PDT)
17 more, making it 149 atm. Patojonas 08:00, 9 June 2012 (PDT)
12 more, making it 161 atm Patojonas 09:38, 13 June 2012 (PDT)

Date
The "easteregg" result says that the date isn't Easter. Has this ever been tried when the date is Easter?
