JUST CONTENDERS, no chat

got over 20 so far

Can we have these converted to wiki? Or this first one and copy 'em in for wiki access to all?

That way, everyone can edit the post to add their own pro or con to it.
Can we make every post in a thread a wiki post?

Then, we can take that list and make a poll, linking to the post about each option so everyone sees the methodology behind the choice.

I am done copying from the main thread TONIGHT, and will continue updating this thread in the morning. It’s 9:13PM here, be back in 12ish hours.

Emily introduction memory

Pro: It’s Emily

Con: it’s in 2017

Infinite runner game on iPhone- but the memory is about a tower defense game

Pro: SM tweet

Tower defense is kinda on the nose, dontcha think?

Con: ??

SM tweet about people trying to stop him coding, but the value itself is You Failed Real Bad and it’s about background noise while a Dreamer codes. Static.

Pro: SM tweet

Con: it’s about static… did the PM really anticipate the ‘division’ of MAIN FAM on this? I don’t think so.

First evidence of glitched text from @the_poet attempting to verify this memory

Pro: first glitch ITS A SIGN OF SOMETHING!

A swansong echoes out in the void with no sound. -Fresh Iteration Generated. Anomaly Containment Prepared. Anomaly is Compliant. Sounds like our bugger, don’t it?

Void reference from Archie in message to @sheralmyst describing the Virus as a “Void Virus”.https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/etarc/optimized/3X/c/4/c4ac0b0bedc92b77b0ca63c8c0e6cea9f65960f5_2_289x375.jpeg

Pro: infinite series.

Pi is food

Con: not related in any other way to any clue

Origin, baby!

Pro: Beginning of time!

Con: 1970? Really? Why did the bug start in 2016 then?

Selfie-Gek

Another thought:

Archie referenced my Arnaud meme. Perhaps this is a hint Termite is looking for Arnaud memories?

Termite seems to have come from Tower. Perhaps Termite is Arnaud’s consciousness, trying to relocate their memory?

Only memory of Arnaud I can think of off the top of my head is “School Code:”

Pro: reference to meme by Selfie Gek (yes, yer that important bud)

school code reference, school is where you learn

Con: no literal reference to Foundation, just conceptually

I’m Emily. This is the Emily Warren block. Talks about her father and radio.

Pro: Emily!

Value is FIRST TRACE

Con: 2017? Does that count as a con anymore?

Literally the blueprint to build our Tower.

Pro: lose the plans, lose the tower.

many details given and we should always use this for CLUES!

Con: 2026 dude. Really? It starts in 2016. How much to offer up for a free lunch in hopes this is the one?!

I am real message. Rinh’a found it for me.

Pro: System is real

27th of June, 27 = 3x3x3 just like the Tower is built, of PRIMES

Con: 2026 again dude. WTH?

Empty date.

Pro: unknown

Con: unknown

I think, if you reach out to a moderator they can make your first post a wiki-style element and it can all be contained in one post (possibly aiding readability).

There is room for each and a TOWER for all.

Pro: TOWER for each

Room for all

It’s my damn motto in this game, y’all!

Con: Halloween Eve? isn’t that when ghosts wake up? should this be a Pro?

Complete crackpot theory, but the first memory bloc that came to my mind after seeing the whatis valuable command vector found was the goldrush memory bloc, because of the reference to rare metal in the command.

Pro: Goldrush must have meant something at some point, right? Why not now?

was password to the TOWER Terminal

Con: kinda tenuous to force a link to this current puzzle? or am I missing something?

Going Gold date. memory bloc 1467849600: Future Is Written in Gold
Value: The dream is now gold.

Kind of ties into the floppy disk hint as well.

Important: entering whatis valuable on Recall Dreams terminal yields the following:

Anything that has a meaning for you is valuable.
If anything is precious to you, keep it like a rare metal coin.

A potential strong clue as to which memory System wants to “save.”

Rare metal coin. Gold. Coin. Disc. Going Gold.

:white_check_mark: a major “root” of the Shared Dream
:white_check_mark: a “foundational” moment for everything
:white_check_mark: losing it would be catastrophic
