A forgotten book.

Post by Markik »

Below is a kind've shoddy description of a book that I don't know the name to, and would really like to know the name to. If you have any information that is relative to this book at all, then please, please, PLEASE post it!

I once read a book about two way-younger than average college students that created a god game that they each got to control during every other day, i.e. one played a day, then another played a day. One played as the force of good in the game, another who I think was named Worm played as the force of evil in the game, and they both fought against each other's past day's hard work at either corrupting the general populace in the game or helping them. Eventually, one of them makes a formula for time travel and demonstrates it by inputting it into the game's coding, thus giving the people in the game the ability to use time travel. This is mostly all that I can remember about this book, and I cannot remember for the life of me what the book's name was or who the rest of the characters in the book were or their names were. I read this book when I was 12, and I really want to read it again, because I remember it being pretty good, and because it's a riddle of my memory that I REALLY want solved.

So, in conclusion, please help!

...By the way, this is my first post!

I've contorted my knowledge of that book into a great many phrases and searched those phrases in google, but then again, I haven't looked at every link that google has turned up, so that method could unearth the book's name, provided I had the loads of time required to look at all of the links. Be assured, I am googling it, though.

Try going to www.loganberrybooks.com and click on Stump The Bookseller. For a mere $2 fee, you can post the description of your book on their website and people will try to match it with a title and author. This service specializes in finding forgotten favorite children's books. If you have extra time on your hands, you can also wade through the catalog of many previous Solved Mysteries and see if any of them matches the book you want. Doing this has personally helped me find a title I was searching for in the past. Good luck!
