6Tim Troppoli[[note]]Dr. Tim Troppoli, having earned a [=PhD=] in Molecular Medicine in 2021[[/note]] is a member of semi-popular gaming group [=ExtraLives=], and is the [[TheLeader unofficial leader of it]]. The group irregularly streams 72-hour marathons to raise money for Free the Children.
7
8Tim herself also makes irregular streams, but not for as nearly a charitable reason as charity. No, she plays games to show how terrible they are and how badly she can mess things up. Her hijinks include playing hours of VideoGame/FarmingSimulator, hacking a vehicle in said game to accelerate instantly into a void, playing old games that the only mention of are on Platform/{{Geocities}}, browsing Geoities, having 20 babies in VideoGame/RealLives 2007 despite being gay and infertile, and playing Majora's Mask literally blind.
9
10Tim commonly plays VideoGame/RollerCoasterTycoon and VideoGame/TheOregonTrail, and has streamed the fastest SpeedRun on the internet of the latter. At the end of her streams, she usually just starts browsing old websites, Twitter trending topics, and AOL. Her twitch.tv stream can be found [[http://www.twitch.tv/monotonetim here.]] Her Platform/YouTube channel, containing some of her stream recordings along with songs sung by Pumkin, can be [[https://www.youtube.com/user/monotonetim here.]]

12!!Tim provides examples of:
13
14* CreepyMonotone: You'd at least think this from her username. This can often be the case after being awake for 24+ hours.
15* DeadpanSnarker: At times, she will use sarcasm.
16-->''"There is a roller coaster in the way of my roller coaster. How did that happen."''
17* GuideDangIt: She's inflicted this on herself quite a few times (Who reads manuals, anyways?), but one particular case of legitimate GuideDangIt came up when she [[http://www.twitch.tv/monotonetim/b/311168644 attempted to play]] Virtual Corporation and hit the [[UnintentionallyUnwinnable unwinnable situation]] that appears right after the first save point in the game (You have to lower your stress, but the only methods available flat-out do not work). In the period of half an hour, the chat managed to get a hex editor into Tim's hands AND get the save game edited to where her stress was at zero, allowing her to continue past that point.
18* MusicalEpisode: During a run of the Oregon Trail, Tim got the challenge to do all of the commentary to the tune of the background music when there was some.
19* SimilarlyNamedWorks: The two times Tim has played a bridge-building simulator, Twitch didn't have the name listed under its extensive game list. Instead, she opts for Bridge Deluxe with Omar Sharif. She's even made Omar Sharif basically her idol in the realm of building bridges. It turns out Omar Sharif plays the classic ''card game'' Bridge, he doesn't actually build bridges.
