Choose Your Own Sysadmin Adventure
Posted in Fun, System administration on July 30th, 2010 by Christian Ternus – 8 CommentsToday is System Administrator Appreciation Day, and being system administrators ourselves, we here at Ksplice decided to have a little fun with this holiday.
We’ve taken a break, drank way too much coffee, and created a very special Choose Your Own Adventure for all the system administrators out there.
Click here to begin the adventure.
Feedback and comments welcome. Above all: Happy System Administrator Appreciation Day. Share the love with your friends, colleagues, and especially any sysadmins you might know.
Wish your life as a sysadmin were a little less adventurous?
Ksplice Uptrack allows you to apply Linux security updates without rebooting, so you don’t have to interrupt your marathon StarCraft session to babysit a 3AM reboot.

That was very entertaining. Really good story telling
That was funny. Excellent blog.
Awesome thank you for that adventure!
There is no admin appreciation day here for me but that just made my day
That was lovely!
Good story lines. I think the 20 20 20 ending has more of a chance of really happening then the basement passage (trying to avoid spoilers here), but that’s why it’s called fantasy, right?
it’s good……sysadmin day…..hm…..everybody needs sysadmin help……..
but…..when did ur sysadmin ask for help last time?……hm…….
^_^
Read the story and found truly funny… makes me think of me walking through the underground basement to reach server room, all alone. Sysadmins are often alone…
