Not sure if anyone noticed, but today’s email implies the calendar is actually from Ghost, not Architect.

Unless this is a throwaway clue (which is entirely possible and far more likely), that implies Ghost is in another world from ours, with a different, much worse calendar. Architect seemed as confused and exasperated about the calendar as we were in that email, which implies Architect isn’t in that world. But they also went to high school together and were physically in the same place once in 2013, so if Ghost is in another world they must have moved at some point since then. Or maybe there is no other world at all, and Ghost just convinced Architect we’d enjoy an incredibly obtuse way to get to the word “echoes”.

The emails in general have Architect repeatedly telling Ghost they were correct about some advice we don’t see, which implies Ghost has an intricate knowledge of the system but is running all their ideas through Architect. In which case, why get Architect involved?

I have a few normal theories and one crack theory: Ghost worked on System in the past, but doesn’t have access to it anymore; Ghost doesn’t want to be seen rebuilding System and is laundering their involvement through Architect; the System doesn’t trust Ghost for some reason, but trusts Architect (trust seems to factor into getting permissions, judging by how we got edit access); or maybe a delusional AI that can seemingly warp reality to match its foggy memories is dangerous as hell and Ghost just doesn’t want to be around that thing when it wakes up.

Or
 Ghost is stuck inside a simulation run by System, and is using Architect to get out.

Either way, there are a lot of ways their relationship could pan out, and I hope we figure out what’s going on between these two. Somehow, I don’t think Ghost would take as kindly to our wasp/Ned-related shenanigans

Continuing the discussion from :memo: Project Skyscraper - Timeline / Storyline Thread:

Ghost being inside the core was my theory as well. Ghost=spirit or soul. The Core if you will. just from what I have read from WT narrative, and looking at what we see here, I believe the question of Who are you if you don’t remember anything is being developed. To anthropomorphically analyze it if you develop dementia and can’t remember anything, the part that makes you still you is Ghost, here he just gets to talk to the doctor(architect) about the things/ways that help dementia patients remember(think the piano from The notebook)

Today’s puzzle(?) has us signing up for IDs that are prime numbers, with System identifying them as “windows.” (e.g. I’m window 137)

Sounds like we’re reserving spots in TOWER, whatever that entails. Which might mean we’ve all just signed up to have simulacra of our memories trapped in a digital purgatory forever


Eh. There are worse fates than getting stuck in Hotel California with the MAIN FAM. :person_shrugging:

I think I’ll definitely be including my Internal_OpID with my memory timestamp and membloc integration submissions going forward :slight_smile:

I don’t think it’s clear that the windows are OpIDs at this point.

The Diagnostic that appeared before they started emailing people asking directly for a prime etc and giving the game away, kinda gave me the impression they were.

Module: Calculator

Diagnostic: Unable to set Operators Internal IDs.

Status: Origin does not define identity.
Cause: Self-awareness.
Note: The Operators have not confirmed that they are PRIME.
