Ok so

You know how I love to imagine a world where the original copies of all the programs from Tron 1982 get to go on happily doing their jobs and living their lives within the Encom system

(whatever may be going on in that OTHER Grid)…

I like to imagine Tron and Yori and (rerezzed) Ram are all so good at their jobs that they're kept online permanently as Encom programs, upgrading as needed to keep up with the times, and that this goes on pretty much forever.

(because I want all my sweethearts to live happily ever after, okay!)

But… today I just realized the further implication of that...

The one where… if the events of Legacy still happen…

Sam Flynn is breaking through Encom security on a yearly basis to play pranks

Meaning:

Either he's regularly defeating Original Tron at the system security game...

...Or… Tron, somehow, is recognizing him and deliberately helping.

…I'm not yet sure what to do with this thought

But it is making me FEEL things

My favorite genre of Tron fanfiction is where Rinzler comes to the user world. like hell yeah let’s just let a little freak loose in Sam/Alan/whoever’s house and see what he does. As a treat :)

What to get a programmer for Christmas

Once you actually find a lot of the computer related shirts and buttons from the 80s you realize programmers and geeks were ….really horny. Like really— and for the computer too. (They’re valid)

Anyways, since is Christmas (eve) I wanted to do a little post of computer related things I think the encom bunch would receive.

Flynn-

He’s the boss with the cheesy mugs. I can see him varying in his collection. 90% of his stuff is either advertising Tron and his other games or goofy stuff from magazines and catalogs. He is really easy to buy for.

Alan-

You think he and Lora are squares but half is just computer innuendo. Other half his he’s just an optimistic dork.

Lora-

She gets to be a part of the funny shirt gang. I can also see her getting this Garfield. It has not left her desk in 20 years

Roy-

Also a button guy, but I can also see him with the unironic “my X got me this shirt and thinks I’m real cool” type.

The shirts come from a magazine Ad in the 80s “ software” thats hilarious

Please accept this screenshot redraw of a certain trio of programmers from a certain company! You know the one.

I absolutely love Flynn, Lora, and Alan’s plot to sneak into ENCOM

He was a punk,

He was the son of the man who got imprisoned due to the aforementioned guy’s Dad releasing info on unsavory business practices at ENCOM back in the 80s…

Still thinking about that ask I got a couple of days ago. Thanks for making me question the fabric of reality jerk! Man—now I keep dreaming about Flynn’s video games being real.

I guess it’d make a nice movie if the company ever branded out. A video game movie… that’ll be the day.

Sometimes you just need to go home and draw a tron oc, and that's okay <3

That last reblog is definitely helpful for future cosplay ideas... although it's very different from the style of cosplay I'm currently doing

(I'm an Encom program at heart, not likely to change that, lol)

Have shown this to very few people, but...

Are all of ENCOM’s board members required to wear black to meetings or something? No way all of them showed up like that by accident.

Where’s the “you have no memory if you loose your disk” come from?

I’m assuming it is in uprising and the fandom just ran with it because in the movies it’s blatantly false.

Greetings. The Master Control Program has chosen you to serve your system on the Game Grid. Those of you who continue to profess a belief in the Users will receive the standard substandard training which will result in your eventual elimination. Those of you who renounce this superstitious and hysterical belief will be eligible to join the warrior elite of the MCP. You will each receive an identity disc.

Everything you do or learn will be imprinted on this disc. If you lose your disc, or fail to follow commands, you will be subject to immediate de-resolution. That will be all.

Once again how Flynn was there for the speech “huh they’re giving this thing to a very specific few and no one seems happy about it” and then went “I liked the frisbees I’m going to put them in my world :)” is so wild to me. I know it was probably actually Disney higher ups who just…. Didn’t think about the implications of making it mandatory for all.

Classic-

In the classic grid it was assigned spesifically by the MCP to the video warriors, gladiators, combatants etc (whatever you want to call them).  Essentially it makes  eradication easier. If you were in the game grid you were one of three things:

1.) Religious

2.) rebellious/just want to do your function

3.) “useless”

Keep in mind the MCP was different from Clu, he wasn’t reprogramming he was assimilating. Took control of all your functions, made it so you wouldn’t want to complete them or talk to your user. You are apart of him now. Apart of one. If he found you useful. If not your in the games to eventually die there. The disks just make it easier to pick up what useful information a program may have while  simultaneously getting rid of the body.

You don’t loose your memory when you loose the disk. It’s a memory backup! Basically it’s a hardwired flash drive in your back!! If you loose it they just kill you (this is to prevent rebellious programs from destroying theirs or refusing it).

Legacy-

Ok well then is it different In the other grid? Slightly. Flynn didn’t intend it as a oppressive tool but it canonically serves similar functions later on, we here the later part of Sarks speech as a safety speel in the armory before Sam is sent to the games. “Take it off and well fucking kill you”. This is under clu. Under Flynn I’m imagining it was mainly memory back up and so he could have quick access to code/be able to code from inside.

If you still want to use the memory loss trope that’s fine. I’m just, really curious where it started because it’s not exactly the case?
