Planning take away for me Landing on seed does not matter, the void out is a AOE attack meant to hit as many targets as possible Next seed after protecting Aug is Feb _ **6** _. Protect Feb 8 and 2(just cause 8 is my bday, idc) fill the rest with dupes. Leave Jan 7 blank/null to freeze if it doesn’t work ---

I personally believe that destruction doesn’t depend on the type of date and would like to petition option 2. I’ve also had a bit of a fear of messing up the seed order by cramming February full of candidates and letting the virus run free. It’ll knock off a _bunch_ of candidates for sure, but if deleting a future, non-next seed messes up the pattern in an unpredictable manner, we might end up with another runaway virus offshoot. Personally, I’m all in for unidirectionally cramming adjacent dates next to the next 3 seeds such that the virus extinguishes itself again once they’ve all been consumed per seed. ---

If you were responding to my clarification post please read my original post. Your take away may be misguided. We have been specifically told that the virus is _searching_ for something. Destroying/voiding things is not necessarily what the virus is trying to do so treating its actions as its goal may be missing the bigger picture. The community is not in agreement with whether or not landing on the seeds dates matters (this is our main stumbling block right now). ---

I assure you I am almost certainly misguided. My post was more of a IMO this is my takeaway of how that plan “should-ish work”. I thought the options were a “what is the consensus” on whether the seed date is attempting to directly hit a memory block or not 👍👍 yall are doing great work carry on. Just throwing my two pence around. If it helps pick em up, if not feel free to ignore them to your hearts content. ---

Tried to run a check on the seed date predictions based on the patterns spotted by @Frazzlesprite if you need something to cross-check against. If the last seed was 8th Aug 2016 my sheet is predicting 29th Jan 2017 as the next seed. > **[Virus seed check](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RhqFUGVGhvOaT7tOU0XWQu97_4YOxJ067a2aU4gSy18/edit?usp=sharing)** > > This Sheet is private ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/etarc/original/3X/8/0/80a3757c291a15ff632c2421dfdec7c5f7d5b9c2.png) ---

@toddumptious Slight change of plans, it seems like we were working with bad data and the actual next seed target is January 28, 2017 (confirmed by @Frazzlesprite ). Given the new information the two courses of action should be (based on the response from Archie): **Option 1** (landing on a seed date matters): - duplicate [July 7, 2016 memory](https://project-skyscraper.com/2016/07/07/event-07072016/) to January 28,2017 - create new `no/value` memory on January 27, 2017 - preserve August 24, 2016 to paralyze the virus again if the plan fails **Option 2** (landing on a seed _does not_ matter): - duplicate [July 7, 2016 memory](https://project-skyscraper.com/2016/07/07/event-07072016/) to January 28,2017 - create duplicate memories on the surrounding dates: - [August 9, 2016](https://project-skyscraper.com/2016/08/09/event-09082016/) → January 26, 2017 - [November 29, 2016](https://project-skyscraper.com/2016/11/29/event-29112016/) → January 27, 2017 - [February 29, 2016](https://project-skyscraper.com/2016/02/29/event-out-of-range/) → January 29, 2017 - [October 30, 2016 (In Memoriam)](https://project-skyscraper.com/2016/10/30/2016_dataset-in-memoriam/) → January 30, 2017 - create new `no/value` memories on 25 & 31 January, 2017 - preserve August 24, 2016 to paralyze the virus again if the plan fails If you do not respond to this message in the affirmative by 2026-07-20T11:30:00Z, @ThatBomberBoi will send an email to @the_architect requesting execution of Option 1 above. Please follow up on NMScord if you are active prior to then. (Edited to reflect more precise deadline timing) ---

I’m enjoying Bjork’s cover of It’s oh so Quiet. : D That’s a coincidence! Bjork was the inspiration for my chosen Prime. Many happy memories of when her debut album was released. (oh so quiet was on her second album I think). **1949 (French Version):** The song was adapted into French as _“Tout est tranquille”_ for the French Operateurs : D (Edit 1949 is also a prime!) Lyrics for the sleuths: > **Summary** > > [Intro] > Shh, shh > > [Verse 1] > It’s oh, so quiet, shh, shh > It’s oh, so still, shh, shh > You’re all alone, shh, shh > And so peaceful until > > [Chorus 1] > You fall in love, zing, boom > The sky up above, zing, boom > Is caving in, wow bam! > > [Post-Chorus 1] > You’ve never been so nuts about a guy > You wanna laugh, you wanna cry > You cross your heart and hope to die > > [Verse 2] > Till it’s over, and then, shh, shh > It’s nice and quiet, shh, shh > But soon again, shh, shh > Starts another big riot > > [Chorus 2] > You blow a fuse, zing, boom > The devil cuts loose, zing, boom > So what’s the use, wow, bam! > Of falling in love? > > [Verse 1] > It’s oh, so quiet > It’s oh, so still > You’re all alone > And so peaceful until > > [Chorus 3] > You ring the bell, bim, bam > You shout and you yell, hi, ho-ho > You broke the spell > > [Post-Chorus 2] > Gee, this is swell, you almost have a fit > This guy is “gorge”, and I got hit > There’s no mistake, this is it! > > [Verse 2] > Till it’s over, and then > It’s nice and quiet, shh, shh > But soon again, shh, shh > Starts another big riot > > [Chorus 2] > You blow a fuse, zing, boom > The devil cuts loose, zing, boom > So what’s the use, wow, bam! > Of falling in love? > > [Outro] > The sky caves in, the devil cuts loose > You blow, blow, blow, blow, blow your fuse > Ahh! When you fall in love > Shh ---

Oh wow, I genuinely had no idea that was a cover but makes sense now that I think of it, stands out so much compared to the rest of her body of work. I always just assumed it was a throwback/celebration of those big band era tunes.
