Community Q&A for The Architect

@the_architect,

After much deliberation, the Operators have reached consensus on the line of questioning for your forthcoming Q&A.

Their efforts have been commendable, and wasted no time completing the set task - A selection of questions from TRACE & NMScord were discussed, chosen and voted on. Here are the top ten, ranked by the number of votes received.

We are excited to receive your response.

If you were required to write an objective, wholly truthful and comprehensive dossier on Ghost including all facets of their existence, persona and involvement in the project from inception to now, what would that dossier contain in explicit and thorough detail?

We operators have been working with you for some months now, but we know so very little about you. You know all of us, but we only know you as “The Architect”, which seems like more of a title than a name. Please can you tell us a little about yourself - who is The Architect?

Please tell me, in a specifically and highly detailed manner, what is the story of your complete involvement with Project Skyscraper backward, starting from the current end (now) and moving to the very inception of the idea or impetus for the project without omission?

What is your favorite meme or running joke that spawned as a result of Project Skyscraper?

Initially, it appeared as though the goal was for System to (re)connect with the Historical_DB of an old Mercury Subroutine. On June 11th, the Historical_DB was irreversibly lost after forwarding its connection to the original facilitator. The timing of this event felt deliberate, as though they had been watching your attempts. Would you share with us any speculations or insights into why this connection was so abruptly and deliberately severed in the midst of such a crucial moment in the progress of your project?

ANOMALY has spent the last 15 issues, approaching and contacting NMS fans, but you’ve turned the tables and have approached us… which likely means you have something to say. What’s your message to the Operators?

What is the intended purpose of System/Core after reconnection and becoming self aware?

Would you share with us the most mind blowing or unexpected statistic/outcome you’ve seen on your end since Operators got involved, and how it affected you and/or Project Skyscraper?

In light of what we are currently witnessing with Ghost appearing to be System and data getting all messed up, what risks are actually involved in waking up/restoring System with the use of memories we as operators provide and verify, while giving it a connection to Tower?

The System has been responding almost exclusively to memories related to No Man’s Sky and its development. What is it about No Man’s Sky, it’s universe and its themes that draws the System to it so strongly?
