What happens if you turn a computer off while it says not to turn it off?

You know those Choose Your Own Adventure books? A book where every page has part of the story and every so often you need to choose what to do. And when you’ve chosen the book tells you to go to that page to continue?
Now you get a new bundle of pages by mail. It says “To make your book better, follow do this!”. And it tells you to correct this word. Move this page to there and change this number on that page. What happens when you stop? When you go to sleep and forgot?
The next day you read your book. You start on page 1 and go on an adventure. Most of the times you don’t notice anything, the bundle made changes to the evil storyline, the one you never read. But sometimes the story doesn’t make sense. You try to enter the Royal Hall and suddenly you’re in A Dark Cave. And sometimes you stopped when changing something very important: maybe you ripped out the first page and didn’t replace it. Now your book is broken.
As others said, now we know people often break their books when changing them so the bundles now include clever things so they don’t break as often. One of them is a big fat warning “Don’t go to sleep, stupid!”, another inserts a new page 1: “You went to sleep, stupid! Finish what you started! AND CHECK EVERYTHING TWICE!”. (This page is removed when everything is finished)
