Officially, this type of session is accredited to Team Paradox. If the Team would like this concept to be publicly available as a Sgame option for fanventure sessions, that is up to them, but this blog will continue to treat Team Paradox as canon sgameplay and analyze it accordingly. Consider this session type to be exclusive to Team Paradox until further notice.
Below, based on the Team Paradox script that picks up where the adventure left off before discontinuation, a straightforward explanation of broken sessions.
[ edit 7/5/15: The Team has granted permission to share the concept and objective of broken sessions. ]
***TEAM PARADOX SPOILERS UNDER CUT***
Every sgameplay session, as previously mentioned, is the egg of a Genesis Frog waiting to be fertilized from within, to hatch a new Genesis Frog to swim through the void that is the Furthest Ring. A fertile session succeeds in this purpose.
A null session is fertile but never makes it to the end result, a void session is infertile but can be refertilized by the imported goods of another session, and a dead session is a collapsing single-player game intended to take the player with it, but may unlock exclusive rewards unavailable to multi-player sessions and almost impossible to win. A fertile, null and/or void session may be personally chosen for a first guardian to supervise.
A broken session does not serve to breed a Genesis Frog, nor does it serve to penalize a single player. A broken session, chosen by a second guardian and the Board, serves to ensure that a broken session mutates its frogs [or other subjects if frogs are unavailable] to breed the Horrorterrors that populate the Furthest Ring. Second guardians and the Board mainly use beta timelines to influence these sessions, but in Incipispheres in range of the Furthest Ring, and beta timelines live on in dream bubbles created by Horrorterrors, as well as several other “back doors.”
Broken sessions are characterized by uncharacteristic circumstances previously mentioned here which fragment and corrupt the Sgame data. It is implied that broken sessions are on a countdown before the destabilization causes the game to collapse and become a dead session.
Major symptoms of a broken session include:
> Denizens named after Aztec gods, implied to be exclusive to broken sessions [even Echidna and Hephaestus may be replaced].
> Multi-syllable Classes and/or Aspects [ex: Guard of Gravity, Harbinger of Dust, and Emissary of Secrets].
> Multiple players entering the Medium together.
> Players’ phernalia are not all accounted for by Medium-entry.
> the presence of a second guardian and the Board.
> Prospit wins against Derse, negating the Reckoning.
> a Space player’s Land does not originally include “Frogs” in the name, even though their quest involves frog-breeding.
> the Session, though multi-player, later collapses and becomes a dead session.
> “Zeroeth” players.*
Symptoms of any unstable session include:
> Beta-timeline players serve as exiles to the alpha timeline.
> Beta-timeline players replace alpha-timeline players.
> Odd-numbered Dream Selves on either Derse or Prospit.
> One player is counted twice [Najash Guivre is counted as both herself and Apysur, therefore their sprite reflects both their colors].
> Overpowered Prototypings pre-entry.
*A zeroeth player enters the Medium without a server, phernalia, or a Kernelsprite [Aliesh Manare enters with Tronno Contar without ever going back to enter from her own home]. Bending the rules for Medium-entry in this way causes a major glitch in the Incipisphere that corrupts all data relating to that player.
Because they never receive a Kernelsprite of their own, their corresponding orbs on Derse and Prospit’s towers, and on the Monarchs’ rings, are inert and cracked. Their Dream Self’s tower breaks off and drifts into the Veil.
Their Land only appears as corrupt data, except for their central cores. The cores of corrupted Land files are called Seeds, and under the right circumstances, Seeds and their time-doubles can together reboot the Land.

Sessions not directly involved with producing their home world's First Guardian may have handles outside of the GCAT lettering. [Alpha human session is included as a first guardian-producing session because of Godcat.]
They could spell out nothing, they could have changed handles from GCAT initials, or they could spell out code for other constructs.
Further, sessions not directly influenced by a First Guardian may instead by influenced by a Second Guardian.
