WIBTA if i tell my thesis coordinator, about one of my groupmates lack of comitment?

I want to start saying english is not my first language, and give some over all info. I am writing this on the 28th of November, 2023, a Tuesday. I am a Game Design major.

Ok, so i am doing my thesis work, and for what we thought it was going super well!

We have 5 members in our group, me, the game designer, 2 artist (M and B) and 2 programers (A and P).

As I said I thought things were going fine, we had a dead line for monday, yesterday as I am writing this, and we planned to have everything done by Sunday, with monday being a playtest by 3 people or so.

Both artists had all tasks done by wednesday and friday, and both were helping me with formating the big game design document 194 pages long baby! Wich got done by saturday night. However, I got informed by P that there were some issues with the code for the game, and they were gonna try and fix it by monday afternoon. It comes monday and i try and talk to both programers to get info on the game, and A tells me he can't talk cuse he is to busy and that he needs me to write the conclusion of our thesis paper. I found it weird that he asked me that now, since he said the writing was done on June! I believed that we only had to add some in game screenshots, but I write it the conclusion without any arguments.

Anyway, me and the other 2 artists get in a call to check the prsentation slides, and M says she has something important to talk about. B joins and the truth comes out. M explains that A has been doing another persons thesis coding work, not helping, but doing it entirely! We were super surprised and she asks us to not tell anyone else, and says this has been going on for a while, and she did confront A about it a week back, and he promissed he wasn't gonna work on the other guys project. Turns out he did work on it mutiple times, and even filmed the walktrough of the game for the guy. As I am writing this, A has told her he was working on this today.

Before we continue with this mess, I want to explain how M has found this out. A few months back A did tell her he was helping this other guy out with the code, he is a good programer and this dude is doing the thesis by himself, so she didn't think much of it, but a few weeks back, when she was asking A to implement some assets she had finished, he said he was to busy with Guy's project to do it. At this point she realised how much he was involved, and let me tell you, M knows how to extract information, she now knows A is also being PAID for it, he guy owns 500 bucks to A from what I gathered, besides what has alredy been paid. ANYWAYS let's get back to this mess.

I was so tired I couldn't even really react, and just did what I had to do that day, by this point I gathered we wouldn't be able to do the playtest, and write the thesis conclusion acordingly. Around 10 PM the programers tell me the game still has a few glitches but they have uploaded it to the google drive, and i do a one over and send in the file for avaluation.

I spent today mostly relaxing, reading and watching some videos, but around 7pm i am consumed by the anger and betrayel i couldn't feel yesterday, and I talk to B about what happened

We agreed we had to confront M about the situation, and since me and B were not supposed to know about it, she had to talk to A. She said she alredy did, and told us that A was planing on talking to everyone on the next meeting (tomorrow), however, i argue that P needs to know beforehand, since this situation is horrible and he could lash out if A just dropped this on him, us 3 agree and invite P to the group.

Turns out A has told P about it today, but he was so tired from the past few days, he had no energy to react.

We talked a lot, and we agreed we need to talk to our coordinator about this hole mess, wich is probably gonna happen the following days.

So, WIBTA for airing this mess?

What are these acronyms?

Man y'all I don't know whether it's the hacker that sponsors Watcher Entertainment or a ghost but my fire stick has this weird glitch where no matter what I'm watching (Hulu, Prime, etc) it just closes the movie and takes me straight to YouTube and cues up a random Ghost Files video. This time it was the Hinsdale House video. Next time? Who knows.

Do you have and hcs of how Toby and Ben would act together? - Hoodie

YES SORT OF . u know the drill this is my au and bens story is one that i changed a lot so here we go :9

ok toby younger brother family trauma issues lonely grew up isolated etc. ben only child got killed by neighbor for absurd vr theory now inhabits a virus-ghost-form that he partially shares with several other dead kids.

toby and ben wouldnt have gotten along before ben died. only because ben was just. a 13 yr old boy addicted to video games ... those kids r mean, and toby was heavily bullied in his childhood. the ONLY reason bens not a huge dick anymore is bc his 'form' itself is fucked up (he glitches, he has an electronic vocal fry and occasional stutter from glitches, he has a weird glow to him, sickly drowned boy skin, veins look like those green code lines, red/black eyes, HE'S LITERALLY DRESSED LIKE LINK). bens not exactly insecure about any of this, but he knows damn well he cannot make fun of a tic without toby shooting back 10x harder.

which ok yeah kinda sad that ben has to look weird for him to not be mean but .. . like . . yeah. it is what it is.

they met mmm... maybe when toby was around 21? jeff would be 16, and ben wouldve been 14. SOOO toby doesnt really TRY to befriend ben. he's too old for him and has no interest in being besties w some kid. but he has a job to stop ben from tormenting people online and drawing attention to weird ghost sites and whatnot, so he started talking to all sorts of ai- cleverbot being the main, of course.

of all the proxies, tobys the only one ben likes. tobys a dick, but he has his moments where he's funny and gets distracted during a mission, so he's sat and rambled and bickered with the ai on slow nights. ben immediately knew everything about toby, because he has access to every single file on tobys computer, phone, etc.

ben SCARED THE SHIT out of toby upon their first meeting. he crawled out of tobys janky ass computer one day and toby nearly threw up from being so freaked out. yeah, he's killed people and whatever, BUT GHOSTS R FUCKING SCARY (and he has .trauma with ghosts and hallucinations of them (lyra)). ben already knew exactly who toby worked for, what toby was doing, and thought it was beyond funny. ben was the first being who already knew all the slenderman lore because he spends literally. every. second. on the internet. he is basically the internet. and he watches them, listens through their phones, watches, etc. he doesnt know the details perfectly tho cuz technology gets weird around slednerman/the operator. so toby thought that was helpful, in a sense.

so pretty quickly ben was fond of toby. thought he was like, that cool older brother of your friend. the main issue was the proxies at this time were trying to find and kill jeff because he was infected by the operator and slenderman deemed him 'too far gone.'

ben was actually the one who proposed the whole 'okay. so you want me to stop terrorizing kids online. fair. now ive noticed you keep trying to kill my friend(jeff). stop that and we can be cool :3'.

eventually they all came to some weird agreement where. ben will stop haunting people, the proxies will stop trying to kill jeff, jeff has to stop doing his 'full course' murders, and eventually, ben just likes them enough to start helping them with cctv, police files, etc. it was a complicated agreement that eventually ended in friendship, sort of?

they play video games together. eventually toby does see him as a little brother. it's kinda unsettling because the proxies realize just how much power ben has when it comes to just...... leaking everything. toby thinks that 'ok well, if ben leaks stuff about us, we leak stuff about jeff, and now he has no friends and is lonely, so he can't.' but tim and brian are legitimately freaked out at the thought of their lives being ruined anymore than they already are, so theyre pretty courteous to ben

ben will really just hang around. toby can just be eating breakfast and ben will pop up and ask whats up. he's annoying and clingy, and he can tell toby is biting his tongue half the time. . but toby is grateful sometimes. bens laid back and funny, and toby could use some laughs, so its a decent time for them both

again, overall, toby is just kinda too old for ben(although ben wouldve been a year older than toby if he was alive), but ben is really funny, he's nice to toby, he plays video games with him, he comes and checks in on him randomly. so toby appreciates having a freaky ghost little brother thing hanging around. bens one of his fave people (which is only saying so much when the other people he talks to are like . . jeff)

#ticci toby #ticci toby headcanons #ben drowned #ben drowned headcanons #hcs #creeped #lord do i talk.#um #hey.#sorry.#i hope this does talk enough about how they act around eachother #i just feel the need to explain hella context otherwise i'd feel my explanation on their friendship is too random LOL

Ok I've seen nothing but countless theories about puppet history lately but here's my it's-not-10pm-and-im-actually-coherent take

See this box right here? This generator looking bitch? Well, she's got a tube that's connected to the stage. The professor was being really defensive about it AND we got that close up of the box. She's gonna be important I can feel it.

Next: What's up with the professor's lighting? Does it seem more red than normal? I went back and looked through some old episodes and in the beginning it's always more of a purpleish blue. Even across seasons this lighting stays the same. Like look at these two shots. The first is from the Pinkerton episode, the second is from the new one. The new one even seems more washed out and less rich than the other.

Next, the glitch at 13:11. When I first saw it I thought it was my computer being weird, but then I went back and saw it happen again. I've looked at that glitch so many times. While this may be completely incorrect, the colors of the glitch kinda match the colors of Asmodeus. And if it's not that, it's a glitch in the power supply from that generator and our little blue ballsack is a hologram or something similar. For the life of me I can't get a sc of the glitch so just go back and watch it.

Now, the weird voice at 13:50 (and other places). I saw someone else say that this is a genie voice, and I honestly can't tell if he's impersonating the noise the algorithm machine makes or that the genie (or whatever thing is controlling the professor) fucked up talking for a sec and he went haywire.

Now, this may just be me, or does the professor look more sinister this season? We know he has a weird fascination with flesh but something about the eyes seem wrong. Under the lighting in the theater they look completely red as opposed to their normal brown. I don't think that they're using a different puppet but who knows.

And, at 20:09, Ryan says "You know a lot about ghosts, professor." and the professor replies "Yeah, yeah I do." Now, this may just be another callback to ghost files, but also, could the professor be a ghost himself? Or met ghosts when he was canonically dead?

ALSO, RYAN WON? But, I went through the video (and while I may have counted wrong) Sara got 4 points while Ryan only got 3. Is this going to be a pattern where Ryan always wins?

In conclusion, I didn't cover every single thing in this post, and I might not, but here are my takes for now. More episodes are gonna have to come out to know for sure about some of these things, and I am very excited for when they do.

#puppet history #watcher #shane and ryan #sara rubin #the professor #shane madej #ryan begara #theory #s5 #analysis #idk tho #we be wildin

— Welcome, [USERNAME]!

[ Open ENGINEER_MODEL.EXE ? ]

→ YES. NØ.

THE GAME HAS BEEN RIGGED FROM THE START

this muse is a TF2 Engineer AI that lives in the Team Fortress 2 Game/Program, on a Dev Computer that has been left to rot (& is rotting). you will often find it in a Dumpster or a Garage Sale, or the Game itself if you wish.

the form that this muse will come in with will depend on what World your muse occupies, & whether or not you wish to RP with this muse within its World or Yours. + Verses can be found at the bottom of the AI's Bio.

this blog is written by & follows from @fandomandangstlover (english is not my first language, so ah'm sorry if the wording is a little weird)

— [ CHARACTER PROFILE ] —

"The Engineer" (HE/THEY/IT) is a playable character in a modified game of TF2 that is left unfinished due to the nature of the AIs that lives in it. The Program is prone to bugs & glitches, as it seems to be breaking.

He is fully sentient and is capable of interaction by means of the Chat Function & general movement that Players associates with Communication (nodding, crouching, spinning, etc.) Sometimes using voicelines/audios that was given to him.

It is not capable of moving at freewill, however, as it still needs to obey the nature of the Program. Trying to fight against it is not recommended. (it learned the hard way.)

it can, however, Ragdoll whenever it wishes.

due to the Program trying to fix itself, it has combined the files of both the RED & BLU Engineer into one(1). which has caused a hørŗib1e error that causes the two(2) AIs to still exist as separated beings stuck in one vessel, unaware of one another.

- the RED one, often being the one most seen due to the Program trying its hardest to never let BLU out, is unaware of the artificial nature of itself. it currently lives in the Teufort map & within the intelligence room by the command of the "higher-ups." he does take peeks outside every now & again.

the AI is as sweet as the Engineer in the "meet the teams" videos, & if not just as crazy. they still set up Sentries despite there not being anyone to take it anymore, only itself. maybe it's an attempt to go back to normality, who knows?

RED always has the default weapon set.

- the BLU one, rarely seen due to its knowledge, only activates when the RED one gains the knowledge of their true nature. it is constantly fighting against its nature & breaking its laws, wanting to have some sort of self control due to its nature as a Player Character. safe to say that whenever it's out, it breaks its reality a little.

it moves around constantly & the Program will try & shut him down whenever it realizes that BLU is out. not much is known about him, though it's very likely that it is unstable (both mentally & physically) & will to prone to violence if not approach correctly.

BLU always has the Gunslinger equipped, & responses more positively towards being called by the name "Dell"

more may be added

— [ VERSES ] —

• ROTTING PROGRAM :: main verse

[AREA] takes place in the rotting Dev Computer mentioned above (can be found anywhere) and/or takes place in the modified TF2 Game (can be entered anywhere, ‘how’ is up to you.)

[DESC] exactly what was described in Profile.

• UNKNOWN TERRITORY :: human(?) verse

[AREA] anywhere you wish, defaults to the dessert outside of TF2 industries (can be found anywhere)

[DESC] the wizard (merasmus) found the Dev Computer the AI was trapped in & BOOM! magic go brrr & now the AI is in a human body with normal human physics!! he is so not used to it. & then there's the problem of RED & BLU still being in one body... yikes. horrible fusion mind wise, i tell you.

• more may be added (maybe)

[AREA] none

[DESC] none

#« ooc post »#the house « the program »#this house is rotting & i am locked inside « engineer.ai »#lucky is [he]; who lives unaware « RED active »#unlucky me; aware of the pain « BLU active »#[ verse ] an unstable AI in a human body; what can go wrong?

So I can't get this out of my head so is Jeremiah cold blooded or warm blooded I mean he's a groomda But they're like humans right I'm very confused .

Ty for asking anon! I am FULLY prepared to go into a lil ramble abt Jeremiah’s weird biology situation here. I mean, dude gets shot in the chest (based on the location, he should’ve been shot on the heart or at least a lung) but then…is able to move around fine. He goes on a dangerous mission, he fucking scales walls (p sure he does his when you enter Bryce’s room as weasel kid), etc. He doesn’t behave like someone who got shot in an organ, despite the fact that characters very much so can die from getting shot anywhere an organ is (like Jay or all the npcs in the gameworks base). More info under the cut. Tldr tho: Cold blooded, I just feel like going on a ramble about character creation, specifically Jeremiah’s

So yeah, I briefly mentioned this in my latest fic, but Jeremiah is notably cold as a corpse. He *is* alive, I should say that, he bleeds in canon and then in my fic gets flustered, but he’s still cold. I’d imagine Groondas ARE warm, they are living beings after all, Jeremiah’s just the big ol’ exception. Everything about how he works is weird. Basis for this hc is admittedly snatched from @/hrokall (p sure i reblogged the post), but still.

What makes Jeremiah different though is purely because of him being a glitch. We don’t know much about the actual creation itself, and even what we do know, just feels. Odd. Ignoring the contradictory stuff though (‘Lionel created a groonda’ vs Lionel saying Irving made the npcs), the way I see it is that a character becomes, well, a character once they have all their assets and coding and stuff. Stuff like animations, sprites, dialogue, all that fun stuff. Bare minimum npcs like Captain Barnay don’t have much in the way of personality or dialogue because they don’t need it, making them flat characters. Even Junior in SoL primarily repeats “Hi!” or “Hi…” the entire time. Playable characters have more assets + files, and are completely sentient and able to do as they please (save for Rust for non-self-aware reasons) due to feeling like legitimate people.

So, for whatever reason, maybe something to do with swk, Lionel was fucking around with the Groonda files, and just. Completely forgot to save the files. He was 12 at the oldest, can’t really blame him for being forgetful here. But because the Gameworks is, in the video game universe, a real life corporation with employees and bosses and the such, they had all these files that should be gone due to being unsaved, but they’ve got all that work done, so the assets and such essentially become corrupted. Hence Jeremiah’s creation. He’s essentially a huge fucking glitch in the system, and, well, unsaved files go missing, and the in-game version of missing files would likely be a ‘dead’ character. Essentially like a zombie or a ghost. Something that should be dead, but isn’t.

So basically the long story short of it all is that Jeremiah’s essentially an undead creature. He still has blood flow, but like I said before, he’s as cold as a corpse. One day I’ll properly get into how I see the needs and stuff of characters and how the amount of assets/files affects them, but. This is a Jeremiah centric post and I’m trying my best to keep it that way

#ik its a very simple question #but i felt like going into detail abt how i feel jeremiah works #but yeah the shortened version is that hes cold blooded and essentially a zombie #i have many thoughts on how the character creation process works in the mullinsverse #but im gonna save that specifically for when I got everything focused on rust figured out #bc hes an outlier to my whole ‘more files = more sentience’ rule #might have to replay the game again but we’ll see #scov.txt #the hex #the hex game #the hex jeremiah

Pokemon Series Retrospective, Volume 1: Yellow

After the break: a Gen 1 kid talks about coming back to Gen 1 twenty years later.

Background

My first Pokemon game--quite possibly my first game ever--was Pokemon Blue. As a kid, like most kids born in the 90′s, I was obsessed with Pokemon. I collected the cards, I owned about a billion VHS tapes of the anime, I saw the movie in theaters. But I didn’t own a Gameboy until the GBA came out, when it was given as a present and became my first video game console. With it came a copy of Pokemon Blue, and that copy is sadly lost to time, but having owned that cartridge was what cemented my love for Pokemon. Arguably, Gen 2 was what captivated me more, but this isn’t about Gen 2.

My memory of it as a kid is somewhat limited, but I know that it was able to immerse me, and I know I managed to plow through it guideless. My final memory with Pokemon Blue is wandering into Cerulean Cave in the post game and getting my team wiped by a Venomoth.

After Blue, I owned several copies of Red, Yellow, Gold, Crystal... whatever I could buy for ten bucks at the secondhand shop near my apartments. I was enamored with seeing other peoples’ save files, but also with playing through the games over and over again with new teams.

My memories of the game are rose-tinted. It was one of my first video games, after all. But I’ve known in the years since I first played Gen 1 that it is dated. I’m aware of the weird and broken mechanics. I’m aware the game is balanced horribly. I’m aware it’s busted in multiple ways. But despite that all, I can’t help it. I'm firmly in the territory of “Gen 1 Enjoyer.” At the least, I was, but does that still hold true after playing Yellow in 2022?

Present Day

Yeah. I still think Gen 1 is a good experience. With several caveats.

I’ve already established that this Gen is broken. Psychic type is obscenely powerful due to several oversights. A small number of Pokemon are just objectively superior to every other Pokemon. The inventory system is terrible, as is the Pokemon box system, as is the PC item storage system. You can’t see what moves do in-game. Everything is slow and clunky and takes like twelve too many button presses. I have more gripes but I think it suffices to say that I can see the problems with the game.

In spite of that, yes, I think the game is fun. And, to get this out of the way first, at least in part because it’s janky. Sure, it sucks that inventory-management and HM use is a slog, and that certain Pokemon get left in the dust, especially when one of those Pokemon is supposed to be your special little buddy throughout Yellow (I found myself, on multiple occasions, staring at Pikachu’s stats and saying “oh my God, I wish I didn’t have to stick with this guy,” which, I know, you don’t have to, but how in the hell are you going to play a game called “Special Pikachu Edition” with a Pikachu that follows you and can interact with you and knows how to surf in a mini-game and decide not to use it?).

...But it’s also kind of funny. It’s funny that psychic type Pokemon basically have no weaknesses due to glitches and oversights. It’s funny that Pokemon like Snorlax can destroy and tank everything with ease. It’s even funny that you can get your entire team wiped by any Pokemon that can inflict status effects or use multi-turn moves (or, in some cases, both at once). It’s the kind of stuff that makes you roll your eyes with a smirk and waggle your finger at the screen.

But that’s not the main reason I’m still a Gen 1 Enjoyer. I like Kanto. I like the Gen 1 story. It doesn’t have a grand, sprawling, high-stakes story the likes of which we see in future generations. But the world is fully realized. I believe in Kanto as a region, with areas that connect to each other seamlessly and unlock with a pretty open-ended progression. I believe in the world of Pokemon, that these people bond with Pokemon, that there are clear consequences to allowing the antagonists to exist unimpeded, that there is a deep corruption running through the society which demands attention. This is the first time we see the recurring issue of: “why this kid?” But that’s just the nature of Pokemon games, and the stakes are certainly lower here than they tend to be later on. It at least makes some sense that you’d get roped into this, with the incompetency of the police force and the way your progress is actively halted by Team Rocket’s bullshit.

To unpack two things from that last paragraph: first, progression. It’s pretty open-ended, with most roadblocks being something you need to directly react to, instead of which disappear after, say, a gym is completed. Most progression is locked behind things like Snorlaxes, needing an HM, guards blocking the path, Team Rocket needing to be knocked down a peg, etc. Second, consequences. It can’t be ignored that this game talks about death a lot. Not just in creepy Pokedex entries or random lore; you’re confronted with the fact that Pokemon die and that people mourn them. The presence of death goes a long way coupled with the fact that this game world feels actively hostile towards you. You’re frequently locked into encounters you can’t escape from, trainers are often really aggressive towards you, it’s very easy to end up in battles which you are severely underleveled for, and you’re constantly surrounded by wild creatures which are absurdly powerful (albeit this is true for all generations). I think the only other game that has attempted this vibe is Legends: Arceus, which leans into it from a gameplay perspective.

I like both of these things, progression and a world with consequences, but more than anything, I like that this game still makes you feel like a kid on a big adventure. It captures the feelings of exploration and discovery that I felt playing any video game as a kid. Even as someone who’s essentially memorized every beat of Kanto’s storyline, I still felt it fun to progress, to explore the tucked away corners of the map, to enter a dungeon and find a legendary Pokemon. I still enjoy Gen 1.

FNAF: Has Anyone Else Got Their Gregory Stuck And Can’t Move, Because Of Sunny...?

after deciding to progress and get the lights on in the daycare,

I decided to keep that save before I got the security badge...

and make a new save that will be the one I progress in the game.

the save that still has Gregory in the daycare (and that version will NEVER leave....) is there to help me relax and take it easy after having a little trouble progressing.

okay but has anyone who has been in the daycare, like in the PS4 version.

have moments when after Sunny picks up Gregory/Player up and puts us down....he might end up at times, placing us on those block pillow things that can be used to distract them if you knock them over.

like no matter how much you try to move, or turn around, you are still facing Sunny and you can’t move at all.....

if I didn’t know any better, from the few times it has happen when I decide to go hang out in the daycare and take a break from my other save file....

I would think Sunny does it on purpose, and knows the only way we can get out is if we exit the game and load the original save that takes place before he gets us stuck.

even if the whole clones of both Vanessa and The Glamrocks might seem like a Glitch, but it could be canon.

like for all we know in a another game that has to do with the Security Breach,

the Good versions of Roxy, Monty and Chica are fighting off their Evil Clones that were corrupted thanks to the Vanessa Clone who goes by “Vanny” but isn’t the same as the one who tries to get Gregory.

sometime, I need to try to find the place where the Gregory Clones are suppose to be in.....I know from Youtube Videos about the Gregory Clones.

someday I do hope to get a Xbox One version of FNAF Security Breach...

Sunny having doing that whole picking Gregory/Player up and placing us down really close to those block pillow and causing us not being able to move Gregory with the controller.....I think they does it on purpose.

so if it is true that Sundrop does it on purpose, then they are just being a little naughty......but also making sure Gregory (and the Player) can’t get away.

“All Eyes On Me” is what Sunny wants, like Alice Angel’s song.

also is it weird to think that if Roxy and Chica’s ship turned out to be canon,

they would be like the Undyne x Alphys and even the Susie x Noelle,

of Security Breach.....not sure if many fans had this crossed their minds.

I don’t know how many Players ended up experiencing that whole getting stuck in the daycare, because Sunny decides to put us a little too close to the blocks and causing us not being able to move.

so far the last thing I went to that save, to just relax and have Gregory move around all of the place.....Sunny hasn’t gotten us stuck after picking us up and placing us down, but that doesn’t mean he wont do it again eventually.

if Susie and Kris ended up in that game, Monty might end up being like a Dad Figure to Susie....that might be weird, but it would be like in a Crossover Fanon Timeline....

Sunny and Moony, are characters that some FNAF fans have fallen in love with.

plus if Sunny is getting Gregory (and the Player) stuck on purpose,

maybe it’s because he is lonely and knows if we progress, we will leave the daycare after turning the lights back on.

I don’t think it was the Players or even Gregory, that turned the lights off in the first place....

taking that security badge from that desk, wouldn’t of done it.

so it might of been done by someone who could of been controlling Freddy or it could of been Vanny who did it, getting us in trouble with Sunny.

so whoever turned off the lights after we take the badge, was making Gregory and The Player the scapegoat.

us taking that badge, wouldn’t of turned off the lights....

and Sunny only assumed that it was Gregory (and The Player)

that turned off the lights, when really Gregory and The Player didn’t.

and you know that Purple-Guy we see in the mini-game that has Crying Child/Michael Afton’s past (new theory is that Crying Child’s Older Brother Is Sammy Afton/Charlie’s Twin Brother.)

might really be The Puppet of that Fredbear’s Dinner.

it’s a type of Animatronic that is suppose to help those work there, put on the suits....

so The Toy Animatronic Marionette’s face could of used to be purple, until painted white, but some of the purple was kept and made it look like tears.

there can still be Purple-Guys that are reanimated corpses in the FNAF.

when William Afton brought his son back, he could only bring him back as a Animatronic Doll.

and unknown to the ones who created the Animatronic Dolls that look like real humans, the Soul of the humans that those dolls are based on...

might use the robot doubles as a vessel.

so that would mean that Michael Afton who was the victim of the bite of 83,

could have his soul end up in his Animatronic Doll Double.

made by his grieving Father....

not everyone has to agree about this theory.

plus the whole William Afton being the True Villain, might turn out to be a trick.

like you know a faux hero, where a character we thought was the hero because they show up in the very start in the story and we follow them in each chapter of the story.....but then it turns out they weren’t the true hero in the first place,

and the real hero and true main character appears later on.

the same can be so for villains, William Afton might be a faux villain.

and the real villain might be either Henry Emily or Dave Miller.

Dave Miller and his daughter Eleanor Miller, were brainwashed into believing they were William Afton and Elizabeth Afton, when really they aren’t.

the girl that became the victim of Circus Baby, was never Elizabeth Afton....

it was a girl named Eleanor Miller.

and the soul of Elizabeth Afton, was in The Toy Puppet the whole time,

and she goes by Marionette, and the girl who as left out in the rain...

might be Gregory, when they still went by Gregoria.

that part of the mini-game with The Puppet, could take place before the events in the Security Breach game.

we know there are secrets in FNAF, and maybe we will see them in the next game that might take place after Security Breach.

plus it can turn out in a plot twist way, that Henry Emily and William Afton,

had a Third Partner, who was Dave Miller, and who did cause some children to go missing and William Afton was the scapegoat.

while Dave and Henry dressed up as Spring-Bonnie and Fredbear....

William Afton would dress up as The Puppet Character, that was Purple with a Security Badge....but he had to stop, because it was becoming too dangerous for him to keep putting on The Puppet Security Costume, because he had close calls each time.

so The Puppet Security Costume, can only be used by Endoskeletons.

Toy-Puppet also known as “Marionette”, became The Puppet Security’s successor, and their full name might be Toy-Puppet Security.

I’m going to see that as head canon.

at some point during Dave Miller, William Afton and Henry Emily’s business together.

Dave got into hypnosis and reprogramming, being able to implant false memories into Henry Emily, making him believe he really did have a daughter named Charlotte Emily, and made him believe Sammy Afton’s twin sister Elizabeth Afton was her.

Dave Miller even reprogrammed The Puppet Security, before Toy-Puppet/Marionette came along....

and had that The Puppet Security, help with his plans....

and when that Puppet Security went missing, they had to be replaced by Marionette, The Toy Version.

Sundrop and Moondrop, could been recycled from The Puppet Security,

Sunny/Moony being versions of The Puppet in a “past life programing”

would be interesting if it turned out to be true.

they could have their old memories locked up, which could of been done by Dave Miller when he was working at the Pizzaplex.

Dave Miller being the True Villain, would make sense at first....

but he could be a Puppet, just like how he might of turned Henry and William against each other.

maybe I can talk about this theory in the next post.....

but as for the whole Sunny getting the Player stuck on purpose, and making so we can’t move at all and are only facing them...

don’t know how many Players went through this, but it is still funny to think that Sunny does it on purpose so we don’t try to leave them.

. . .Whoops

So, I accidentally softlocked my brother's name on Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.

We were working on the Flavio glitch, where Flavio from Chapter Five follows you around as a permanent 'partner.' We were really excited, and everything was set up. There was just one small problem. So, to perform the Flavio glitch, you need to perform a different glitch called the 'Fish Glitch' before setting sail in Chapter Five. This can be set up by the second set of blue warp pipes underneath Rougeport. One of these pipes leads to Poshley Heights.

I went to Poshley Heights just to see what weirdness could be done. I triggered the cutscene where Beldam, Marilyn and Doopliss take the false Crystal Star. Now, Paper Mario works on what's called a 'trigger based story system.' That means that by activating a cutscene the game automatically updates its state depending on what cutscene you have just walked into. By activating this cutscene early, I skipped the entirety of Chapter Five. (Cortzes' ship is available, the Pirate's Grotto is open. There are a few oddities though. Flavio and 'Four Eyes' are present on Keyhaul Key but cannot be interacted with, and most of the places that Boberry is required to blow up are still blocked.)

I (very, very foolishly) saved, and that's how the softlock works. By saving after your story progress is updated like that, it means that you cannot go back. The reason this softlocks the game is because in order to get the sixth Crystal Star, you need the Ultra Boots, found at Riverside Station. By triggering the story to think we've already completed the Exess Express portion of the game means that we cannot take the train back to Riverside Station to retrieve the Ultra Boots. Which means, we're stuck. (We would be softlocked in other ways too. By skipping Chapter Five, we don't have Bobbery. That means any place where Bobbery is required to blow up wouldn't work.)

There is a slight chance of redemption here though. It's just a theory, but I think by triggering the 'Bobbery Early' glitch by 'Goombella Buffering,' the game just might switch our story progress back to the middle of Chapter Five, meaning we could retrigger the Excess Express portion and get the Ultra Boots. The only problem is that Gombella Buffering is either really hard or only version-exclusive. (The video where I saw it performed was using the Japanese edition.)

If somebody knows another way to get us out of this softlock, or even some other funny things to do at this point, please tell! I would be really, really grateful if somebody knew how to get out of this, because this is my brother's name, and he's gotten a really nice save file on this playthrough.

If anybody wants to see the video where I learned about all these glitches, I've embedded the link right here.

RC: Their emails to each other are fairly pornographic Me: uh

Give her a hug my man

KB: Castle, I’m married to someone else. And I have no idea where he is, we don’t have any leads, and then to make things worse the venue and now this? I mean, it just feels like all of this is one big sign. RC: Well, maybe it is a sign. (he puts his arm around her shoulders) A sign that ours is a great love story. Because what’s a great love story without obstacles to overcome? Every fairytale has them. Terrible trials that only the worthy can transcend. But you can’t give up. That’s the deal. We want the happy ending, we can’t give up.

THAT'S THE PHONE Why did tory send the one of the dog? oh that's why the bus bench was so noticable!

Oh protestant that's why he's not father ?.. You're not? By the time you're done being blackmailed, everyone has seen the photo & used it to blackmail you!

A few pictures actually!

RC: So your husband is hijacking someone else’s blackmail. It’s kind of ingenious in a degenerate sort of way.

Ooh she's good! Ppole dancing is not just wow sexy, it is an art form & a sport! (her accent xd) Lol castle tipping her

the red tailed hawk sound effect?

I'm with becks on this. Maybe y'all need a monocular too tho. Did she bring her gun with her?

going to be more people here. I swear. Amish horror film lol. Not going to be him. Or going to be a scarecorw. Or dead. Or the scarecrow lol.

KB: Could everyone please stop saying man parts? RC: Well, we just followed the trail of disappointment and deception. Led us right to you.

Smart on beckett. *calls castle man-parts* You know that's a good idea. Say he's either signing the papers or dying, either way it gets you out of marriage.

the ugly brothers? MICKEY BARBOZZA THE MOB HIT MAN?

that's why castle was keeping watch until a moment ago. Becks should have said "castle lets get out of here" & then started to leave w/o rogan & then he'd call them back sign the papers & they'd get out of there. maybe. idk.

ESPARISH JAVI & LANIE JUST SITTING THERE WITH NOBODY ELSE AROUND LOOKING OUT OVER THE INLAND OCEAN OR W/E IT IS SO THAT RICK ISN'T AFRAID OF STORMS... ROMANTIC. Wait, are THEY going to get married here instead!?!? JE: Now all we need is a bride and groom. WAS I RIGHT WAS I RIGHT HOLD ON they are in LOVE (even with their on & off again hot/cold

Ooh nice transition with the hands Love these interactions, they manage to make being held captive by a feared mob hitman funny. *castle can't see anything* *castle turning around* WAIT I THINK I KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING-- I MIGHT BE REMEMBERING. IT'S THE BIKER GANG?

RC: Why do you think? Husband, wife, future husband, your apartment? They find our dead bodies, the story of jealous rage writes itself.

knew it. biker gang. WAIT GANG VS MOB YES YES YES Wonder if the bikers still want rogan to pay em. I mean otherwise they were kind of.. using them.

you CAN thank them lol the contribution of the homicidal bikers is it already the next day? they gettin married today? RoL: You are a lucky man, Man Parts Wait yeah you're already back in her bar! *CONTINUES PLAYING HIS FRICKING ANGLE*

She's running so happy!

Who the heck are these people? will, idk, the el-masri family be here? Is that ryan up at the front? who are these people? I recognize,, none. I'd really really like to see some old characters return. Maybe Powell the jewel thief, or castle's friend in the mob, will from the fbi, agent mccord, kyra blaine (who has the initial kb again)...

OOH LANIE IS SO PRETTY! "called your dad" love those momen..ts... is that her mom's dress? she IS part of the wedding! Oh gpsh! I wore my mom's wedding dress to my grade 9 farewell but she was 113lbs when she got married lol. It also had dirt & rocks in it bc mum went rock climbing in it.

Bro: That's nice Me: *hands him my laptop* Bro: She likes the clear division on the hips- I wonder if it's because of backlash. Fans were like "that dress is sooo ugly" and they had to change it. It's a lot more normie than the last one but it <i>is</i> nice. I like the lace; not sure how I feel about the sheer peep-hope on her upper chest? seems indecisive. I really like the bodice. And again the lace detailing. Ahh it's her mom's dress. Esp since the last dress made her so emotional over her mom not being there. I like the little trails of lace extending down the skirt portion. I like the sleeveless.

Bro is literally watching a wedding tiktok right beside me.

LP: Yeah. For a second there, I wanted to marry you! Me: this fandom needs more femslash Martha got her earrins (that look a lot like the ones castle got gates) but they are generational earrings & so pretty & castle has been married twice & martha didn't give them these earrings

Why is he 20m away? Oh law Love the music Love his tie this is all so cute!

& then this happnes. Call her back CALL HER BACK! (also back in s1 it was established he has bluetooth in his car & yet he's calling her on the road?)

Stomp on the brakes castle so that they are ahead of you

the natives?

she's already called him ofc... "this is she" not "speaking" WAIT SHE'S THE EMERGENCY CONTACT NOT HIS MOM OR ALEXIS? OOH LOVE IT. tho if he was in trouble it would likely be WITH beckett.

Oof their nice wedding car

Oh no the car,

oh no fire,

oh no he dead ig

lol

great episode ig

Love the humour humour & then boom death

Lol mum just got home, perfect timing but now she suddenly asked for the bloopers. I'll def show u the bonus features later.

Ruin DLC thoughts...

The Bad...?

I was hella disappointed it wasn’t open world, but I guess it works better for the story its trying to tell. But I much prefer exploring the world than to be told where to go.

Was also disappointed there wasn’t more Sun/Moon content, and that I couldn’t interact with Eclipse at all other than the short video.

And super disappointed we didn’t get to fix all the animatronics. I mean we got to help Sun/Moon in a way, but I would have loved to have fixed the others too.

I have no idea about FNAF lore really, so no idea who the Mimic is or why I should care. But totally called the fake Gregory from the start.

So many dead bots. :(

No DJMM. :(

The Good!

Hell yeah Eclipse!

Hearing Sun sing was... haha, well relatable.Though I’m less likely to sing than my alter (who is still missing). Too shy (and I always forget the lyrics). :T

Roxy and Cassie were awesome. I was so miserable deactivating Roxy, I was trying to click Escape and leave but the game wouldn’t let me. Glad she ended up okay! I hope Chica and Monty will be okay... (I know, I know... let me at least hope theres a chance.)

Bonnie lore. Poor Bonnie though.

Mini DJMM! :3

The Silly...

Cassie kept reloading in to the world randomly in the Daycare and falling through the ceiling, and sometimes getting stuck in it... weird glitch but funny. One of those Endo’s tried to attack us but it glitched, we ended up in the ceiling, and the Endo was stuck looking around seemingly confused.

I kept missing the jumpscares because I was too busy looking around. I’d hear the jumpscare music and was like... ???? I’m not disappointed by this, I hate jumpscares.

Mini DJMM kept glitching in weird ways.

I still suck at the minigolf.

Some of the Wet Floor Bots look away from you now? Is that on purpose?

Overall?

Yeah it was cool, not what I was hoping for but a lot to see. I hope people will mod it soon so we can explore the map without doing the story bits. I admit, it would be exhausting replaying all that. And with no save files, you cant replay your fave moments. So :/

But for a free DLC it was pretty amazing. Steel Wool are awesome Devs. I wish Scott wasnt an asshole though.

(Still thinking about Sun/Moon’s role in it... I’m a bit too tired right now to share my entire thoughts on it. I might replay it just to see them again. I like their design, I mean I always have. Theyre rad.)

hi !! can i ask you a question about giffing? im kinda new to this and i really can't find any answers to my situation.

i have a 240-frame gif (i know 200 is already too much but im just messing around) and i can see every frame on the video timeline but when i change it to frame animation it just doesn't go above 150, so i can't delete unwanted frames or change the speed because when i put it back to video timeline those other frames are just.. gone. every faq and forum i've seen say ps' frame limit is 500. is this normal or am i making some kind of newbie mistake? ty for your time !!

henlooo <3 i’m happy i was approachable even tho i have been mia from the blog <3

haha don’t worry about 240 frames,, it happens !! keeping experimenting! that’s how u learn new things!

The problem you’re facing is weird. When your file opens up, is it visible as a video timeline or a frame animation?

do u mind telling me what version of ps you are using and which giffing method you’re using ? (png, gif to frames or video to frames mov)

i tried to see if my ps was having the same glitch my opening a 293 frame clip too. i tried going back from video timeline to frames,, it doesn't lose any frames. i think your ps i having a glitch. if you'd like, i can provide u with a new cracked version of latest ps.

i’m not sure if i can help u with that 150 frame problem but i can provide you with an alternative solution to do edit frame speed and edit the clip. OR if u can send me a screenshot of what your ps screen looks like,, maybe i can be more of help!

you can try this instead:

If you’re going for “video to layers” then as u select your range , you’ll get an option “Make Frame Animation”. Make sure it’s selected.

Your clip needs to open up in frames at first and then you change your frames per second speed and then convert it to video timeline. and after that, to deleted unwanted frames, you can move your cursor on the video timeline and snip and delete according to you! (i would suggest deleting unwanted parts thru video rather than in frames)

you can refer to this tutorial of mine and if anything, pls don't hesitate to reach me ! my dms are open too !

Henry and Monroe, some kind of au with robots/androids?

"Nope. No way. This is way above my paygrade," Monroe says firmly before Henry can even get a word in. Nick is bad enough, bringing him bots to fix in the middle of the night, but at least they're the kind Monroe actually works on. Not... This.

Henry steps through the doorway, tugging his problem behind him, without so much as an invitation. "I didn't know where else to go."

"Um, anywhere else?" Monroe runs a hand over his face. "Literally, anywhere else. I'm begging you."

The droid hums, an unintelligible but undeniably questioning tone.

Henry pauses, nodding to her-it, it's a machine, Monroe reminds himself with a huff-with a smile. "It's okay, SALL-E. Monroe can help you."

"No, he can't," Monroe chimes in, but of course no one pays him a bit of attention.

"Monroe's the best there is." Henry actually pats the android's arm. "He knows wiring inside and out."

It's a ridiculously obvious play on Monroe's ego. (How incredibly rude is it that it works?) "Fine, I'll take a look. But I'm not making any promises, okay? I work with bots, not droids, especially not MERs."

MERS, or Marine Emergency Response droids, were designed to work as well in water as out of it, and they're able to withstand incredible pressure. They're also, Monroe would like to go on record of saying, highly illegal. Something about a glitch in the programming; all Monroe knows is that all of these should have been disassembled years ago.

He approaches the MER cautiously, half-expecting her to lash out at any moment. The lenses that eerily resemble eyes open and close, which is weird, because there's no functional reason for it. "Did she just... Make herself blink?"

"Probably." Henry's voice has gone a bit sheepish (now he's sheepish?). "I showed her a bunch of cat videos, and now she thinks that's the best way to say she trusts you."

"See, I've got a lot of problems with that sentence, starting with the part where you said she thinks. But, uh... What seems to be the problem?"

"She's been glitching."

He arches a brow. "She's a MER. They do that."

Huffing, Henry shakes his head. "Not-not that kind of glitch. Something new. She keeps losing files, and stopping what she's doing in the middle of programs." Burying his face in his hands, he continues. "I've tried everything I can think of, even a reboot, but... I've got nothing."

Losing files? That's actually something Monroe might be able to help with. He closes the gap between himself and the MER, brushing her artificial hair back so he can see the back of her neck. Sure enough, there's an access panel there, and he pulls a screwdriver from his pocket, starting to turn the first screw.

A piercing noise erupts from the droid, a scramble of electronic noise and squealing that fills the air. The screwdriver slips from Monroe's fingers as he hurries to cover his ears. Immediately, the sound stops.

"Wh-what on earth was that?"

Henry's looking up again, a grim expression on his face. "She was screaming." He pulls something small from his pocket, passing it to Monroe. "There's a USB port on the side of her neck. Put this in it."

Screaming? Monroe complies, and the drive slides in easily. The droid chirps once, sounding almost content, and Henry exhales.

Slowly, carefully, Monroe speaks. "So, when you say she was screaming..."

"You hurt her." Henry gestures to the screwdriver. "She'll be fine now if you want to take a look. The drive will disrupt her pain receptors, so she'll be fine for awhile. It's like a local, but for MERs."

The words rattle around in Monroe's head, not quite landing. "Okay, so why don't you have this in her all the time?"

"It only lasts around thirty minutes. Besides, SALL-E wouldn't want me to; she likes being able to feel things."

What he's saying is... Impossible. It has to be. (If it isn't, it would change everything.) "Listen, Henry, I get it, okay? I work with bots all day long; I know how easy it can be to convince yourself that the machines have feelings, and mine don't even have faces. But SALL-E is a droid; she doesn't want or like anything."

"She shouldn't." Henry shrugs. "That's why they call it a glitch."

The implications take just a few seconds. When they do, horror dawns. All of those droids were destroyed for-for what? Feeling things? They shouldn't be able to do that, sure, but that's the programmer's fault, not theirs. They could have been reprogrammed. As it is.... Were they killed? Officially it's impossible for a droid to be killed, seeing as they aren't alive. But-but-

But officially, droids don't scream, either.

"Okay. Okay, you said-you said thirty minutes, right?"

"Twenty-eight, now."
