Host, short for HaZe Online Sports Troupe, is a professional eSports organization that was founded during Challenge 2 of The Wiki Camp 2.

History

Origin

Host formed when Diary wanted to start her own esports team so she could expand her catalogue of fighting games. The first person she invited was Nurse Cap, who introduced Diary to traditional fighters. Wondering how to gather more members for the team, the two began throwing around the idea of an ad campaign. Nurse Cap eagerly offered to take on advertising for the team, creating a poster that read "join us for competitive games :)" thinking simplicity would bring the right people in. Due to a mistake during printing, only "games :)" could be read in the actual distributed poster.

Expansion of scope

Despite the misprint, the posters for Host (colloquially known as Hosters) were put up and displayed across Wikiland, attracting new members to the team. However, several of these new members joined with the pretense that Host was just a casual BYOG meetup. Some examples of gaming equipment brought to the first official meeting were: a Nintendo Entertainment System, a fully-functioning Gameplu, five copies of Settlers of Catan, a complete set of Lethal Dominoes, and Kirby. A bit conflicted, Diary and Nurse Cap decided to allow these less-competitive focused members to join the team, if only because it was getting a little lonely to only play sets against the same opponent IRL so many times.

Trivia

  • Smobo has dabbled in other games in the Paperboy franchise, such as Paperboy 2 (SNES) and Paper Boy: Wheels on Fire (Blackberry), but the NES game is the only one xey play competitively.
  • Son of Dracula has never played a mainline Touhou game.
  • Nurse Cap dabbles in all kinds of traditional fighting games, but considers 3rd Strike her home where her heart and dedication both lie.
  • [THE ZEITGEIST] did not see the advertisements for the team, but heard from word of mouth that there was an eSports team going around recruiting members. [THE ZEITGEIST] proceeded to join thinking that "eSports" meant "exciting sports", in the hopes of finding a quarterback player for a football team. By the time HaZe figured out [THE ZEITGEIST]'s misunderstanding, it was too late - the damage had already been done.

The Houston Omniversal Science and Technology (HOST) is a privately-owned agency headquartered within Rectangle Zone. It was founded on October 1, 2022, by [THE ZEITGEIST] in an attempt to research a mysterious phenomenon in the cosmic microwave background radiation. The impetus for its formation was Challenge 2.

History

Origin

Information on the study of the cosmic microwave background radiation is hard to obtain in and of itself, as any metastudies into the research itself invariably result in a mysterious amnesiac effect, and all publications to date exhibit strange behavior, including but not limited to flickering text and shifting format. The only information that exists on the topic can be found at this page, though the information present within is highly suspect at best, as the edit history from two centuries in the future, the page is riddled with unprofessional editing conduct, and a myriad other reasons.

Founding

Both disheartened and inspired by this lack of available information, [THE ZEITGEIST] set out to rectify this issue by founding HOST. As such, since its conception, it has been explicitly dedicated toward original research and documentation on the above-stated phenomenon. Seeing as this was concurrent with the duration of Challenge 2, it was registered as an official team as well. When asked about how she felt about being on a solo team, [THE ZEITGEIST] stated that she was "none too bothered by it," and remains optimistic about her ability to perform well in spite of this apparent disadvantage[1].

Publications

The relative new age of the agency means that there is an unfortunate lack of published research at this point in time, though there remain many potential projects. [THE ZEITGEIST] has stated that her efforts in the field will soon yield fruit, and that she is "eager to share [her] findings with the scientific community at large" as soon as they are available[2].

Host (short for Hardware Overclock Sound Team) is an electro music duo formed in 2022 by LiSt and [THE ZEITGEIST]. The duo made their debut with their mini-album Hexstallia Original Sound Track. Host is known for their electronic sound, which LiSt generates from a machine inside of the U.U.F.O.

History

Pre-Challenge 2

LiSt first formed Host not long after they signed up for The Wiki Camp 2. They took particular interest in U.U.F.O. after hearing it produce several EDM samples from its body. Curious, LiSt investigated U.U.F.O. and took a tour of its interior, where they found a studio room with a machine that resembled a DJ mixset. LiSt started to make their own songs with this set, and was fascinated by what it was able to produce. They wanted to make their own album, but needed help with mixing and mastering. LiSt found help in the form of a user on the Grand Closing Forums, who identified themselves simply as [THE ZEITGEIST], and agreed to assist with mixing. The two would go on to officially make the Host duo.

Speculation

In an interview with Bandcamp, LiSt revealed that while LiSt and U.U.F.O. worked together physically, they had never met [THE ZEITGEIST], face to face, stating that "for now, it's just not meant to be. They're helping us over the internet with his computer, and that's that."[1] Despite confirming the backstory and formation of Host in other interviews, LiSt has not explained any further information about [THE ZEITGEIST], leading some to believe that [THE ZEITGEIST] has ulterior motives or alternate reasons as to why they stay hidden.

Hexstallia Original Sound Track

Putting the U.U.F.O. to a test, Host produced a soundtrack for the game Hexstallia, which consists of short songs taking inspiration from various EDM subgenres. The album release was met with decent success despite its short length. LiSt's friend Snake Plant made an appearance on the soundtrack release with a remix of OPTIONSCHRANZ.
