As it is now scrolling through looks like the Belt of Orion. To me anyway. : )

Threw together a little monkey script so you can see your window! It will show you a little red box where your pixel/window is.

Add it to tampermonkey/greasemonkey/etc. in your browser and it will give you an overlay you can enter your prime window into!

So who is my neighbour? I cook a mean meal. Drop by!

At the rate the Prismatic Core has increased in the past couple days, it will be 100% in two days. This event will coincide with the completion of the Tower.

That day is July 07, 2026.

Exactly 10 years previous, on July 07, 2016, the completed build was posted to Twitter on a burnt CD. That mem bloc has already been verified 100%.

sheralmyst · July 5, 2026, 5:42pm

could someone drop mine in for me? 1913

vector_cmdr · July 5, 2026, 5:43pm

For @sheralmyst

(forgot to make that clear!)

Turbulentflow · July 5, 2026, 5:43pm

So we have aided in the construction(by collecting/adding memory data) of a new “skyscraper” that will be complete on the anniversary of the first one, while at the same time the traveler anomalies are collecting data from the hive to create a new countermeasure against the AI that’s attacking Atlas interfaces while they themselves are also fragmented. The creation of the prismatic core seemingly returning their fragmented souls to one. And our efforts here to piece together these fragments will return this core to operational.

The question remains, what happens when we do.

My theory is we mimic 10 years ago, a new dream is gold.

“The future begins with a dream”

sheralmyst · July 5, 2026, 5:44pm

We seem to all be fairly close together

johnnycloud · July 5, 2026, 5:50pm

You’ll be fine @sheralmyst …

citizenScientist · July 5, 2026, 5:50pm

Looks like windows.

Shines like stars.

I’m so curious! A shame I’m absolutely no good at math, even the rules on the routine tossed my brain into the shredder

citizenScientist · July 5, 2026, 5:51pm

Shall we have a (Mem)Bloc Party? I make a mean Manhattan!

the_poet · July 5, 2026, 5:56pm

Right down the hallway. I can see Hyperborea from up here.

ninjafireball09 · July 5, 2026, 6:17pm

Hi, new here, been watching the forums for a couple weeks, I don’t really have any experience with ARGs so I probably won’t be able to help much. I was wondering if it was too late for me to get a window?

citizenScientist · July 5, 2026, 6:18pm

If you still can, you’d need to email the System I’m pretty sure, but I’m not sure whether or not the “window” is still open

Welcome, btw!

vector_cmdr · July 5, 2026, 6:19pm

Welcome!
If you send an email to system@project-skyscraper.com and request your Operator Prime Window / ID and request a prime number that hasn’t already been assigned (though, you can seemingly re-choose if it is) then you should be good to go!

ninjafireball09 · July 5, 2026, 6:26pm

Alright Window requested, just waiting for the reply

kerdorin · July 5, 2026, 6:33pm

I think I’m your upstair neighbor, or not far.

sheralmyst · July 5, 2026, 6:37pm

Will definitely be getting delivery. No way am I walking all those stairs.
Thanks Vec!

vector_cmdr · July 5, 2026, 6:38pm

I hope there is an elevator!

ZentreY · July 5, 2026, 6:38pm

o7 everyone

CrossID · July 5, 2026, 6:46pm

Can confirm. I sent mine in 30 minutes ago and got my response.

Your window is 317.
