This is a good time to add that the whispers seen in the video have completely fictional names. Don't yell at any Miss Daffodils or Crazy Dynamites for calling Jesse Schell a bad player!
I know a lot of how those two would feel because I was in a very similar situation except this was talk between my secret friends & I in a cog building when none of us had speedchat plus because it was the day it launched so we were dissing this toon that none of us could speak to when in a building & he knew everything we were saying, he responded a few things to us by typing, all of us saw it when we shouldn't have been able to.
I've been wondering about that for a long time. The guy seemed to have purposefully made mistakes like using sound on lured cogs & messed up our strategies we were discussing so we were annoyed with him. I don't know if we were being tested or what was going on but it still surprises me that he knew everything we were saying.
Having played original TTO since beta days, I just love Jesse's stories! And as a child of the 70s I ALWAYS WANTED one of those egg chairs. Not kidding you. So jealous Jesse!
I think it's so awesome you guys are making videos like these, keep at it!! It makes a great difference when you interact with fans!! I admire all that you us do on toontown, thank you ❤️ much love to the staff
This is the number one reason why I don't want to play anymore. I make one newbie mistake and I get hounded for it by a ton of players on TTR. Sorry if I don't watch how-to videos, memorize the wikipedia or copy strategies to a T - I just want to play and have fun.
If you haven't played in a while - try a SpeedChat only district! There's also plenty of community groups, such as the Cold Caller's Guild, who are all about playing the game for fun. We're sorry that you've had so many run-ins with people who aren't as kind about gag choices!
Please let me know about ToonTown discords - I have the app but I don't know any discord servers with friendly non-toxic people who are newbie friendly ;_;
I have an extremely important question for you, this reminds me of an encounter I had quite a few years ago when Speedchat plus was first introduced & it very much is similar to the story you told but this didn't happen in whispers. Back when Speedchat Plus first came out, I couldn't get it because my account was on an email my dad didn't use anymore, he got me a subscription as a Valentines Day present in 2004 so it had been a few years. Anyway, I had this group of secret friends I often times hung out with & we'd do buildings together & whatnot. Only one person in our group had plus during this & this was like day one of it being released, they logged out leaving three of us wanting to do buildings so we hopped in one in Donald's Dock, leaving one extra space. This was on my tall black cat named Midnight, there were probably a thousand of those so I know it's not very specific but if this was you that randomly hopped in & joined us, this would be nuts. The three of us communicated back & forth by typing as we usually did, none of us had plus so it would come out as animal sounds to this random toon. This guy was constantly getting in our way, ruining our strategy, & doing stuff as simple as using sound on lured cogs so the three of us started saying mean things about him to each other because we were a little ticked. At one point, this guy says "hi." Lower case h, white chat bubble, it was typed. None of us should of saw that so the three of us rightfully freaked out. I think I was the one who asked him "did you see our conversation?" He answered yes but if I recall correctly, he used the speedchat to say it but it's still eerie. He did have a good sense of humor about all this, at least I hope he did, last thing we saw him type was "lol" & that's about it for our encounter with him. Would mean the world to me if I can get an answer on this, this has bothered me for so many years, would be nice to finally put this mystery to rest. So far the only conclusions I've drawn up is that they worked with the game, there were a lot of bugs when speedchat plus was launched, or they were just some troll that could hack in & see people's semi-private conversations.
From an outsiders perspective it seems to me that the other toon was either a developer in disguise (similar to Jesse Schell in this instance - however if that toon was ruining your gag strats, then least likely) or (most likely) because the Speedchat plus feature was so new back then, it may have glitched to make not only your nearby friends read your whispers, but nearby toons in general that may not be your friend - receive these whisper notifications too.
For some reason the outro music nearly made me cry
Imagine if those two toons saw this video now XD

He may have been a Toontown Online developer!

"I'm going away now."
Thats not very toony! 😂
The two players watching this: we’ve been tricked, we’ve been backstabbed and we’ve been quite possibly, bamboozled.
Kinda wish he did say something. Their reaction would be priceless.
Thanks for using my name lol
That darn Pick-a-Name machine must be acting up again.
I'm wondering if those toons remember saying that and after watching this are thinking, "Oh, that was a cast member?" Oops..."
Well, hellooooooo!
HI SENPAI
Where’s the musical instruments?
Ha ha! That's hilarious! Only a week until Toonfest, guys!
Jesse Schell calling them out LOL
Poor Schell. :(
I'll see you guys there! Quite the birthday gift for me!
We'll have to celebrate Toontown style with a birthday cake to the face! You aren't a Cog, are you?
Not yet!~

Having played original TTO since beta days, I just love Jesse's stories!

You played since beta? what was the candy minigame about?
Should've banned them with his MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS!
WAITING FOR THE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS TRACK TTR. GET ON IT.
I wonder what went wrong! Love the cameo of Crazy Dynamite XD
Hey, Toontastic Toons!!!
You should've whispered to them explaining that you're the CEO and you can hear them talking bad about you being your back. 😂😂😂
It's Just a game
I think it's so awesome you guys are making videos like these, keep at it!! It makes a great difference when you interact with fans!! I admire all that you us do on toontown, thank you ❤️ much love to the staff
We're glad that you like this new video series! If fans like them, we'll plan on making more like it in the future.
"Oh hello there!"
I love these videos! Please keep them up!
That must be really awkward for the two players once they find out. 😂

Toontown there a glitch that toons can glitch off in Donald dreamland and get out of the area

:0 nice!!
What a great guy! Too bad his staff are very ignorant and banned me for asking for people’s discord’s. It’s not like everyone does that.
Wow, this guy is really terrible...
Yeah, I know, he’s the worst!
hes told this story like 50 times now
We've heard it before too, but somehow it still cracks us up just like that egg chair!
.....nah not really
This was the first time I've heard it.
Meme Man shut up lol
oof im sorry that i want something new and not the same story
Oof
:D
