I saw this pop up last week when I was sick and told myself I'd do this when I got better. Now that I am better, I figured to do this while it was still in my head! :D
EDIT: There isn't an secret code or anything... its just the coloring won't take to some of the letters for some reason. which is weird since it's all highlighted to me on my dashboard but some of the letters still are missing colors when I try to edit it for some reason
Preferred name:
Vix, RifterVix (either or is fine)
Preferred pronouns:
She/Her
When did you start watching JSE?
God, It's been a long time but like a year or two before the whole Ego thing started, but I was an on and off viewer at the time
Why did you start watching JSE?
Why? Because Sean's funny. At first he was a bit too intense, which was why I was on and off, but whenever I did watch him, he never failed to make me smile. So I got drawn more to him over time with that humor
What's your favorite things about the channel?
The strange humor and insults Sean did WAY back. They were some of the weirdest but creative things I have ever heard and made me laugh so much. Then the way he sees things and interprets them when he plays games. And I will admit his accent was a weakness for me in the fact that I loved the way he said certain things because his accent. And I was actually curious of how he came about and it was really cool to learn a bit more.
Then the Egos are a favorite thing but are more recent than the other reasons I had. Plus with the Egos, my favorite thing is just... watching explore his creativity and expand upon it more confidence and I can't wait to see where he goes from here.
Do you have a fave ego?
Oh hell yes I do! Anti and Chase. Honestly I love all the Egos, its just those two have more information than the others. Until we get more information on everyone, my current faves are Chase and Anti.
What type of community member are you?
Theorist, first and foremost, I love theorizing and breaking down what clues we have from videos and such. It's a lot of fun to try to guess Sean's story for these Egos.
Also an author, I do like writing short fics of the Septic Egos when I get the inspiration to and have the time to.
I would like to say artist too but I don't have many drawings of Sean/Jack or the Egos. I do have some, but not a lot. I don't have the means to draw on digital anymore so that's why I haven't drawn anymore on that. And... heh, I'm not very confident in my artistic skills, so I just mostly stick with theorizing and writing.
What else do you enjoy?
Oh, like likes? Books for sure, the Dark Series, The School of Good and Evil, Spelled... mostly adventure type of books. God games for sure, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Monster Hunter, Jak and Daxter, Tales of series, etc.
Are you open to nice messages and new friends?
Very much open for them! That's why I love this community! All the kindness and warmth everyone has to each other and Sean in return with what he does. All the theories we all throw and work together to solve the riddles he leaves in videos. All the fanfics I can read which are cool, the amazing artwork... and just... everyone geeking out over the Egos!
Y'all. I'm gonna be 20 this year. When Anti hits a decade, I'll be able to drink.
Oh and also happy birthday to some guy named @therealjacksepticeye ???
ANYWAYS I think about this a lot and it always makes me giggle a bit. The day I stop paying attention to the egos won't just be a cold day in Hell, it'll be the day that God and the devil swap places entirely 💀
But back on track, I STILL act like it's 2018 when it comes to ego things. I'm always trying to figure out when that glitchy bastard is going to show up again. But it's gotten difficult since Jack ALWAYS wears black and gauges now. Back in my day that was a sign of the DEVIL.
Maybe c!Jack WAS real and he IS dead and Anti took his place. He's conditioning us. I REFUSE TO BE CONDITIONED and NO IM NOT DELUSIONAL
Guess what time it is, my fellow theorists! That's right! It's theory crafting time! (Or brain rotting because I have no social life)
But as we all know IRIS on Twitter have been pretty active for the last few days. Posting on 10/24/2024 - 10/25/2024 and 10/26/2024
Yes it's all in order... I hope. (Nothing on the 27th, my birthday, I see how it is IRIS -squint-). And I know I haven't covered the 25th and 26th posts, I was getting ready for my birthday and then struck with a terrible migraine all day the 26th.
I'm better now, don't worry. But I had been looking at the posts when I could and figured to post some things together while I can remember them. I already covered the post on the 24th, I just have it here for convivence and in case I remember anything else for it.
The post for 10/25 is a little odd, more obviously the fact the word 'Strangely' is spelled as 'Strangeley'. Honestly not sure if its an intentional misspelling or an actual one that no one caught until too late, either way kinda gives the notice a bit of charm. Or the employee was typing too fast and misspelled it and couldn't be arsed to type onto another paper to correct it. I wouldn't blame him for that.
But it does speak about a deadzone in an area between a certain bathroom and cafeteria. Only battery powered devices seem to be affected within that zone as the lights and ventilation systems were still operational as normal. Hmm, interesting.
Where have seen a cafeteria in IRIS before? That's right the "commercial" for IRIS in 'this is my 5,000th video' shows a cafeteria like area where employees were enjoying their break.
Not the most glamorous cafeteria (IRIS seems pretty cheap on it. Though we know its because budget for AF:CB), but it is still a cafeteria. If that's the case, then the only deadzone I can think of is the red hallway that Chase was terrified of and dragged through against his will.
The bathroom could be that door next to one of the guards.
Or this one which is right outside Chase's cell.
Not sure, but it is just a guess. Literally its just a guess, as there is no evidence to back up the claim like anyone making mention of anything battery powered being sapped dry while in the area in the stream.
But the employee in the post did make mention that it may be nothing dangerous and just annoyance from a certain department up to no good and just advising others to use a different bathroom on the east aside to avoid their devices being drained of power.
Why does that matter?
Well, it's an electrical interference that isn't causing damage to the facilities systems, just personal devices carried by employees, phones, watches, that sort of thing. So it never warranted further investigation I believe. And there's at least two instances in which that could cause that deadzone.
One of which is Anti's attack on Chase (where we see the shadows move towards Chase, indicating Anti reaching for him)
As Arin points out that Chase was exposed to dangerous levels of energy. (Though I wouldn't put it past IRIS to also have replicated the energy Anti uses to use on Chase to see his reaction to it. Fucking cruel if that's the case. Which then only prompted Anti to find out where he is and zero in on his location)
The second time this deadzone could happen was when Echo appears to speak to Chase.
Shit goes a little funky for the camera but the lights are fine.
It could be that the hallways between Chase's cell and the cafeteria is the deadzone. We don't know when that post the employee wrote was written, either during Chase's week long stay... or even before that. If it is indeed the same building and universe the employee speaks of. (Goddamn timey whimey shit)
But if it is at least prior to Chase's capture, could mean Echo's energy is causing it, as Echo reveals to Chase that they too have been stuck here. Just don't know if its before or after... will not be surprised if it was before to wait for Chase to appear to talk to him. Again, timey whimey shit.
Again, it's all theory, not the best kind but still fun to think on. I think there's more to this post but I... don't know what else to look for in it, aside hey, no IRIS stamp on it, so likely a private message from one employee to another to avoid that place altogether. And then what Department could the Employee be talking about?
Onwards to the post from 10/26, where obviously things for an experiment have not gone as planned. Nope, someone died in the vacuum room. There is another word, 'vacuum' is misspelled to be 'vaccum' (...I will refrain from making a joke here, it's too easy), and again, I don't know if its an intentional misspelling or someone didn't catch it when it was approved and posted online. (And if it was an accident, don't be ashamed or embarrassed, I misspell a lot of words too quite often. The fun of having your brain go faster than your fingers and autocorrect in your mind to not catch the misspelling too.)
Either case, an experiment was taking place in a vacuum room and someone died in the hands of an ALTR. Why an ALTR? Well, the clues were something in there was dangerous and the term 'designations' was used. Designations being something to identify different things quickly for a variety of reasons. Mostly to determine if one thing is dangerous or passive. Much like SCP uses designations to determine each SCP's threat level easily to prepare to encounter them more effectively.
Plus Designations are alternatives to names. Why? Because if you name something, you or the other forms an attachment to the name.
No attachment, no emotional scuff.
No emotional scuff, means easier times to conduct rather... unethical and cruel experiments without the hassle of morality.
It's SCIENCE after all, science has no time or room for morality. At least in IRIS's thought process I guess.
That thought is hammered in with the person (I'm guessing head researcher for that experiment) making a comment of having to remind everyone the reasons why they do what they do and to think of the great rewards at the end of the day!
As if the dead would have to worry about it. But it's interesting to think about what the experiment could be in a Sound Vacuum room. Is it really a vacuum of no sound entering or leaving the room? Or merely a name because they couldn't think of anything else that relates to sound and blast high decibel noises in the room but does not escape those walls.
Which obviously means they used sound to see if the ATLR is rendered helpless to it or unaffected by it. We don't know the results of that but it did cost them a researcher. And if it was to see if sounds could render an ALTR's powers useless, that failed if it was immune to such a thing, or made it useless because it doesn't need sound to burrow into your head and commit unalive.
If not that, probably understood the researcher was probably using safety gear and the ALTR removed it from the scientist to let them suffer... whatever is going on in chamber.
As for the line 'Please update [blank] to [blank] status' I can think of two things at least.
Either its "Please update [ALTR] to [Keter] status" (I think its Keter for most dangerous class of SCPs. I'm not familiar with SCP, I apologize if I got it wrong)
Or
"Please update [Mr. Daly] to [deceased] status"... I'm just using Mr.Daly since that is the only name we ever got from these posts and someone died so, might as well update their file to dead since well, they're dead.
I'm not quite sure which one, both fit in pretty well in context but I am kinda leaning towards the ALTR's status being updated to a higher tier of danger class.
Either way, the leader of this team is rather much an ass with how dismissive he was for the death of one of his own. But again, science waits for no one and mortality has no bearings in the fields of unknown discoveries.
------
I think that's about it for my current thoughts on these posts. There's probably a lot more to them that we're missing. But that's the fun of theory crafting, finding out all the little things you missed before when armed with new information.
What do you guys think? What could be hidden in these posts? And who is leaking them to the public. And if its being leaked, why on the official twitter and why hasn't IRIS removed them?
(...Be quick to screenshot and save the posts in case they do remove them in the future! We need files to look back to in the future!)
Alright my fellow theorists! Today we got ourselves a juicy post from IRIS on Twitter! About damn time IRIS we really thought you all vanished again into the backrooms, how was the trip?
Anyway, here's the post... which I'm sure all of you have seen it all over by now.
Ah, HR problems, but ah... a co-worker bringing in something smelly to work... ew.
Questions ring about what it could be, dead and decaying things to be used for that machine to bring back the freshness of food to the point the meal is alive (still creeps me out for that) or some other science thing going on in IRIS.
But there are some things going on in this complaint letter that's off to me. If we're talking about IRIS we know SCIENCE! is on their minds everyday, so if its like chemicals and such... the employee filing this would explain some concern about the possibility of danger if it was a chemical that could mix with their other solutions in the lab and cause something to happen, like a poisonous gas or you know... explosions. (In which I don't think the department is looking to have renovations being done at the moment), but the file here only complains about the scent, not a hint of danger to it, just frustration.
So so far it's not exactly dangerous, which could be why HR would just not deal with it, maybe. Not sure, I don't know how HR works. But if it was chemicals, then it'd be a lab and HR would likely to tell the employee to just suck it up and deal with the smell, you're in a lab with all kinds of chems. (Dangerous and stupid logic, but alright then)
Another thing that does pop up to me is the term 'cubicle mate'. Something I didn't hear of before but I did look it up and found that 'Cubicle mate' is a term for an office setting. Specifically for an office setting.
So this means Mr.Daly the employee is complaining about is bringing in stuff that reeks to an office space... that has no reason to have that disgusting item there. But has done it four times in a week.
That's some strange behavior, like why is Mr.Daly being an ass to bring something so rancid to the office? Like dude, no one likes having the smell of whatever it is building up in the office. Whatever it is, leave it in your car or at home, not the office space. Just gross.
It is possible HR just refuses to do anything about it since there's nothing 'dangerous' about the smell so why bother to do much of anything? The reason I point this out is because several peeps in a discord server I'm a part of had mentioned about inversing the image.
And one of them did do that.
That's weird... it looks crumbled up. As if it was read then just disregarded. (Wow HR are assholes) So this employee has begged HR to do something and HR has just ignored it, so they'll do something on their own if no action is taken place against Mr. Daly.
I mean that's kinda fair, you did do the proper channels to get shit done and all you get is silence on the other hand. That can be frustrating.
But the biggest thing, after rambling so much about everything else in this letter, is the way the letter is structured. I mean really take a look at how it's arranged, it looks broken.
Like why stop at 'assault' and put 'at this point.' on another line entirely when you have plenty of room to add it to the former line to complete the sentence?
It happens again with 'If not then I will' then 'have to take matters into my own hands' in another line. You can fit a couple of words in there to justify it the rest of it to be bumped to the new line to make it make sense. But it doesn't do that. And I'm not sure if that's intentional or what.
But it could also be some reason for it, like possibly a hidden message from the letters of each new line? Maybe. Not sure, but I'll keep studying this thin, maybe make a follow up post later on if I find anything. Though, is anyone has anything else to add to this, please let me know I love theorycrafting.
So what do you guys think of this post IRIS dropped?
In fact I have to ask...
If this wasn't meant to be seen by the public... just who is posting them for us to see?
Wow, I have... not really opened up tumblr to do much of anything, let alone post any stuff in a good long while. So... uh... hi! How's it going fellow theorists?
Missed making theories and posting them. I have read the comics of Altrverse but right now it's a jumbled mess in my head about it. We went from basically zero information on Marvin and Jackie to quite an overwhelming amount of it with, of course, questions still rearing from them.
And I'm looking at all the strings and wondering where the hell to start with them. But today, tonight (whenever I post this thing), we're not talking about these two.
No, today for however long I can keep talking about this is our good lovable boi, JJ.
Because... THIS from @turquoisemagpie (lovely artwork as always!) has a clue in here~ (thanks to @septicuniverse for sharing this with me and the comics!)
There's probably other clues in other artwork before, I'm not sure, this was only brought to my attention like... an hour ago? So yeah.
Good ol' JJ, we miss you buddy. BUT can you see the clue?
If the answer is
These badges, then you are correct, friend!
These are in fact IRIS badges! On uniforms. That JJ is making, I guess? Is he really making these? Because I can see the little puppets at the bottom of the artwork, so making tiny matching uniforms for them?
Or are they using his sewing skills with making clothes for the puppets of his shows to make the uniforms for IRIS? Which then begs the question... does JJ work for IRIS or is he creating it? Or at least helping in creating the company if he is making the IRIS uniforms? I mean IRIS got its start LONG ago.
(Since how can we forget that IRIS's science is keeping chicken dinners so fresh it still clucks!)
There are other questions I have about the piece that I haven't... quite asked myself yet. Like, why is the door cracked open like that? For the lighting maybe? Can't exactly sew in the dark, but then what closet wouldn't have it's down light source? Because the room is pretty well lit, so why have the door there open like that?
And the wall in the hallway (if it is a hallway) seems similar to the walls of the facility Chase was brought to in AF:CB but... having looked at the video for a quick assessment, those walls don't have tiles like that. So not the same building exactly... but then again we are talking about timelines so -shrug-.
But there is one other thing that has bothered me about this art piece, not in a bad way but more of curious.
I am well aware this could be absolutely nothing and I'm overthinking it from having just read the new issue of the comics today with a friend, that I'm just super excited for things.
But, does anyone else... notice these lines?
They're outlines of the tops of the tables.
Again, I'm aware that these could just be leftover sketch lines from the drawing process before outlining the piece to color and thus means absolutely nothing.
I just... I just can't help but notice... how crisp they are. Like they were outlined but faded out to make them transparent, but still visible enough to see it clearly. Even zoomed out I can still seem them, so that's why I don't know if it was intentional to be that noticeable or it really is just leftovers. I just thought it was very interesting to see them so had to point them out.
And no, this isn't a jab at Magpie's artwork, I have nothing but awe, love and respect for them. Because holy hell, just look at this skill!
So for fun, even if the lines have no meaning whatsoever, kinda wanted to say that with the lines there, makes the room feel unstable temporally and with the table in the back behind JJ, makes feel like he's a ghost or fading in and out of Time.
lol Dunno if it is him or just the closet being funky with Time. Either way its cool.
Treat anything on Discord as media that will be lost
Do not use Discord to host your files. Do not rely on Discord to preserve your text. DO NOT RELY ON DISCORD FOR ANY KIND OF PRESERVATION OR HOSTING!!
It CAN be lost, it WILL be lost! You must consider Discord as a part of the Core Internet, controlled by one company that hosts the servers.
I thought it was impressive at first that it replaced IRC, but now I am horrified. If the company behind Discord went under today, how many friends would you lose?
How many relationships? How much writing?
You may think this won't happen, but I remember when AIM went down and along with it, entire novels worth of interaction with my oldest friend.
IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU. IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. NO COMPANY IS INFALLIBLE.
Back up your files! Download anything you've saved to Discord NOW, before the API changes go into effect! And DO NOT RELY ON THEM FOR HOLDING IMPORTANT FILES!
Here is a program that lets you download any and all of your discord DMs, your servers, everything. You can set the format (raw text, html (dark and light), and others. You can even download the uploaded files not just the text, though that may be just for the command-line version not the GUI window version.
Exports Discord chat logs to a file. Contribute to Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter development by creating an account on GitHub.
Please back up your conversations, your stories. I have a backup of everything I care about that runs once a week, with full attachment backups every several months. I write stories on discord, and would be devastated if someone happened to them. You have to have your own local copies of every file you care about.
never thought id see a day where seans opinion on mrbeast kinda made him a prophet, but here we are
Wild, right? Remember when he said it too, and Mr. Beast went out of his way to DM him so they could 'talk'? Like Jimmy, take some criticism, not everyone on YouTube is going to like you.
Right? Like the man needs to realize people's opinions are going to differ from his own about himself. Welcome to adulthood where people will just not like you regardless of what you do.
Got a self-centred bird fish woman
or an Original Siren as she would put it
In her eyes, she’s perfect
In all honesty, she’s kinda just a dip that causes problems and doesn’t see how it’s her fault
