Project skyscraper / no man's sky arg

The AI gets so many things wrong even just in our regular threads, I had started to use it occasionally every few weeks as a source of comedy.

I’m almost scared to see what it will say about this thread when it summarizes it.

It’s good when theres 4-5 posts, but once it passes that all bets are off the table.

Typing any invalid url will lead you to that page. I have been trying every possible combination since it started. That’s how I stumbled on to the sleep-mode page, simply by just typing /sleep

Here’s a list of everything I’ve tried, hidden behind a drop down list. Though I have not updated it with the last 15 or so I have tried.

Sorry @drcryos . Bot doesn’t like people posting links when they are new. But, we are glad to have you here none the less. Welcome aboard!

Here is a screen of the 2 links

I love you too todd :heart: :face_blowing_a_kiss:

That being said, there is a memory reconstruction under way

And @Sir_oops digging where he “should not” is what triggered that moment

Definitely new, I just got down to adding it to my Obsidian board and was surpised to find the next link.

The sitemap hasn’t updated yet, wonder how long that takes to be generated.

From what I gathered by the site map, it doesnt have everything, theres still some links amd stuff we’ve found that arent listed.

It seems to be more a list of things they want to be found by a websearch.

Nice to see a new entry, was wondering when they’d get around to the next one :grinning_face:

Hi friends. : )

I’m just dusting myself off after what seems like a decade, quietly defending this wonderful game on Steam. Where has the time gone? Almost fifteen thousdand hours of playtime, nearly five and half thousand Steam posts and almost six thousand screenshots later, I was primed to wake up if I ever read the letters ARG and NMS mentioned by the greats of the ETARC community again. : D

You might be interested to watch this horrifying and optimistic podcast by Dr Hannah Fry, discussing her creation of a ‘very simple’ off-the-shelf AI agent, using Openclaw and what happened when her creation went rogue.

All I can thnk of is that No Man’s Sky mastering the use of AI could be very exciting, for all the right reasons of course. : )

If this ‘Project_skycraper’ does lead to a new ARG maybe we’ll be scattering like rabbits down rabbit holes, across the No Man’s Sky universe, to find a LNF portal perhaps, revealing a tiny demo or something of part of the LNF world to discover in the universe… even if it’s only a single LNF creatutre or somethiing lol.

In the 10th year of No Man’s Sky, celebrating Hello Games genius and their astonishing work on No Man’s Sky could turn out to be ‘something wonderful’ as Dave once said… Whatever it is… even if it is simply a commemorative paper clip. (watch the youtube link above) : )

Not yet but watching. Mentions WT as pre NMS release which it was not. It was more of a re-launch.

He is sending people this way

And hello @johnnycloud .

I always saw it as the multiplayer for NMS before they gave us synchronous multiplayer :stuck_out_tongue:

Guess thats why they stopped after phase 2 :laughing:

Phase one in 2017 got the boundaries to wobble and we could see our bubbles.

Phase Two in 2018 completely tore them down and we got fully fleshed anomalous avatars.

Still my most memorable moment and probably the best joke I’ll ever make.

Hi, it’s nice to seee you back.

It already does. As you can see going back through this thread, we’ve been playing with the introductory stages of the ARG for nearly a week.

The main ARG hasn’t launched yet. There’s some sort of countdown going on - we’re waiting for what we presume to be an AI entity to wake up. Once it does, we expect the main site to open up properly.

If you read through this thread (quite long now), everything we’ve found is in here somewhere.

Project Skyscraper is real. We don’t know who made it, but it is some kind of ARG.

I have a feeling that we’ll be working to wake up the entity as part of at least the first phase of this ARG.

The security log mentioning the ETARC post mentions that this was an unexpected posting of an internal log to the site. It’s likely that whatever internal system sent the WoL packet also forwarded this internal log to pique our interest, so that we could assist in waking up the system, as it’s own attempts are failing.

For the most part, the project skyscraper site seems to update in a pattern: 3 days, then 2 days, unless disrupted by something we trigger.
