THE TRAGIC SEED INCIDENT
As Marcelo reached the final chorus, his combo at 1,456x, his accuracy at 99.87%, and the PP counter climbing past 970, disaster struck!
A rogue ant, overcome with excitement, accidentally dropped a SINGLE SUNFLOWER SEED on Marcelo's keyboard.
Marcelo, being a chicken, could not resist his natural instinct. His eyes darted to the seed, his concentration broken for just 0.42 seconds. HE PECKED THE SEED!
In that tragic moment:
- His talon missed the Z key by exactly 2.3mm
- His combo was broken
- The PP counter froze at 979.98
- The dimensional rift that was beginning to form collapsed
- Antonio screamed "NOOOOOOO!" so loudly that three nearby cows spontaneously produced chocolate milk
The government agents who had been monitoring the event breathed a sigh of relief. The world had been saved from an ant invasion, but at what cost? Marcelo's near-perfect run would forever remain in the annals of conspiracy theory rather than osu! history.
Witnesses report that Marcelo didn't speak for 7 days after the incident. When he finally broke his silence, all he said was: "THE SEEDS BETRAY, BUT THE ANTS REMAIN LOYAL."
