[6:37 PM] SHADOWLINK: "when you have no idea what i could"
[6:37 PM] SHADOWLINK: "say"
[6:37 PM] SHADOWLINK: "maybe"
[6:37 PM] SHADOWLINK: "do"
[6:37 PM] ARGdov: "y'all need to stop swamping him"
[6:37 PM] ARGdov: "and antagonizing him"
[6:37 PM] ARGdov: "we asked some questions"
[6:37 PM] ARGdov: "Im wondering if you'd be willing to answer"
[6:37 PM] Slinky: "Okay and how's babel"
[6:37 PM] Slinky: "Is he dead"
[6:38 PM] SHADOWLINK: ""Im wondering if you'd be willing to answer""
[6:38 PM] SHADOWLINK: "https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/453323274496245764/662801980888055819/maxresdefault.png"
[6:38 PM] ARGdov: "lol"
[6:38 PM] ADULT_LINK: "what the fuck is even going on in this arg anymore"
[6:38 PM] ARGdov: "we're trying to figure things out"
[6:38 PM] Slinky: "Okay that lowered your levels"
[6:38 PM] ARGdov: "xenquility has been theorizing up a storm for the past week or two"
[6:39 PM] SHADOWLINK: "He's doing a good job"
[6:39 PM] ARGdov: "so we'd like to run them by someone who could tell us if were on the right track"
[6:39 PM] SHADOWLINK: "that's why I came around"
[6:39 PM] Slinky: "o"
[6:39 PM] ARGdov: "@Xenquility bup approves of your theorizing"
[6:39 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Didn't I say Xen?"
[6:39 PM] SHADOWLINK: "you were sooo close"
[6:39 PM] SHADOWLINK: "but also wrong"
[6:39 PM] ARGdov: "thing is theres been so many lol"
[6:39 PM] SHADOWLINK: "wrong wrong wrong"
[6:39 PM] Xenquility: "does that mean we're actually close to something"
[6:39 PM] ARGdov: "it'd be hard to piece together"
[6:39 PM] ARGdov: "by the sound of it yeah"
[6:39 PM] ARGdov: "Im wondering...hmm"
[6:39 PM] Slinky: ":eggplant~2:"
[6:39 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Xen has been close to several different truths"
[6:40 PM] SHADOWLINK: "about DIFFERENT things"
[6:40 PM] SHADOWLINK: "but I'll never say what"
[6:40 PM] ARGdov: "Im sure"
[6:40 PM] Slinky: "oof"
[6:40 PM] SHADOWLINK: "because then our game"
[6:40 PM] ARGdov: "welp"
[6:40 PM] SHADOWLINK: "is over."
[6:40 PM] Slinky: "Xen has a big brain"
[6:40 PM] ARGdov: "that would be frustrating"
[6:40 PM] Xenquility: "could we have a hint as to what we've been close to"
[6:40 PM] Slinky: "Also I just lost the game"
[6:40 PM] SHADOWLINK: "nah"
[6:40 PM] Xenquility: "damn"
[6:40 PM] ARGdov: "a gamemaster would hate to have a game end too quickly"
[6:40 PM] ARGdov: "so to speak"
[6:40 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Today there was some big braining"
[6:41 PM] SHADOWLINK: "i'll say that much"
[6:41 PM] ARGdov: "truth"
[6:41 PM] Slinky: "Aight"
[6:41 PM] Xenquility: "okay cool"
[6:41 PM] ARGdov: "also I jut jumped back and read the backlog"
[6:41 PM] ARGdov: "apologies for barking up the wrong tree there"
[6:41 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Here's is one thing I am absolutely 100% being truthful on though"
[6:41 PM] SHADOWLINK: "I'm not Tyler"
[6:41 PM] SHADOWLINK: "promise."
[6:41 PM] ARGdov: "well, thats settled"
[6:41 PM] Xenquility: "cool"
[6:41 PM] Slinky: "Okay"
[6:41 PM] Slinky: "Cool"
[6:42 PM] ARGdov: "still was an interesting theory though"
[6:42 PM] Xenquility: "that highly limits what we can look back on today so good shit"
[6:42 PM] ARGdov: "a game theory"
[6:42 PM] ARGdov: "is righfully sent to prison"
[6:42 PM] Slinky: "AAAAA dov why would you say that"
[6:42 PM] ARGdov: "sorry?"
[6:42 PM] Slinky: "a game theory"
[6:43 PM] ARGdov: "in other news"
[6:43 PM] ARGdov: "Im wondering if the one thing we're almost certainly right about is the green paralellos"
[6:43 PM] ARGdov: "wether thats a place for dead souls or not"
[6:43 PM] Xenquility: "I think that was yesterday"
[6:43 PM] ARGdov: "Im sensing a large chunk of people weve spoken to have been sent there"
[6:43 PM] ARGdov: "eh, true"
[6:44 PM] Xenquility: "could be that the ascended parallelos just doesn't fucking exist"
[6:44 PM] Xenquility: "all people go to one"
[6:44 PM] Xenquility: "and the people who "ascend" are just used as cannon fodder"
[6:44 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Mmmm"
[6:44 PM] ARGdov: "what else id we fucking talk about today besides BUPs supposed identity"
[6:46 PM] ARGdov: "oh we did discuss skm today,as well as them potentially trying to create a new timeline/resting this one"
[6:46 PM] Slinky: ">new timeline"
[6:46 PM] Slinky: "Dude I'm not even done w the first one"
[6:46 PM] Slinky: "How I'm supposed to read the new one"
[6:46 PM] ARGdov: "you know what I mean."
[6:47 PM] Xenquility: "1. The proposed meaning of "IIII" and "eoeoeoeo" videos were discussed"
[6:47 PM] Xenquility: "2. SKM's "Fading" was discussed"
[6:47 PM] Xenquility: "3. The "goals" discussed in Prod's cipher (Time convergence shit)"
[6:47 PM] ARGdov: "oh we also mentioned tyler gaining a lot of power but i dunno if we connected anything to that"
[6:47 PM] Xenquility: "that was all related to bup being Tyler so im not sure lmao"
[6:48 PM] ARGdov: "yeah"
[6:48 PM] Xenquility: "unless the thing about Tyler gaining power through dreams itself had merit but I'm not sure"
[6:48 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Everything's always Tyler Tyler Tyler"
[6:48 PM] SHADOWLINK: "I'm getting bored"
[6:48 PM] ARGdov: "oh?"
[6:49 PM] ARGdov: "who should we talk about then"
[6:49 PM] ADULT_LINK: "i mean. he's basically the main character we've seen for quite some time"
[6:49 PM] Slinky: "What if we replace every Tyler with a Bup"
[6:49 PM] Xenquility: "also it's not that anyone else is boring it's the fact that he's a prime candidate for some how being involved with IIIII"
[6:49 PM] ARGdov: "nah hes not tyler"
[6:49 PM] ADULT_LINK: "as well as running things ooc"
[6:49 PM] Xenquility: "and that's whatim fucking obsessed over right now"
[6:49 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Am I base enough to gear the conversation about myself? That seems like ego stroking, and also a way to pressure to reveal who I am"
[6:49 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Also that is fair"
[6:49 PM] SHADOWLINK: "I will give you that"
[6:49 PM] ARGdov: "oh by all means"
[6:50 PM] Slinky: "Like: yo where TF is bup? Is he sleeping or did we woke him with da mask"
[6:50 PM] ARGdov: "tell us about yourself"
[6:50 PM] ARGdov: "we would ask questions oursleves but experience has proven thats p pointless"
[6:50 PM] SHADOWLINK: "fine"
[6:50 PM] SHADOWLINK: "maybe I'll tell you exactly who I am"
[6:50 PM] Xenquility: "I feel like "maybe" is the keyword there"
[6:51 PM] Slinky: ":GWeniSadNeko:"
[6:51 PM] Xenquility: "in reality though, ignoring what we desire to know you're probably the most important dude for us to learn about right now"
[6:51 PM] ARGdov: "except we have nothing we can do now but try and recklessly theorize with the information we have"
[6:51 PM] ARGdov: "but hey"
[6:52 PM] ARGdov: "Ill take a maybe over a "definietly wont""
[6:52 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Eh"
[6:52 PM] SHADOWLINK: "i don't that I'm more important"
[6:52 PM] Xenquility: "i mean you're pretty important at least"
[6:52 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Maybe feeling a little more unhinged"
[6:52 PM] SHADOWLINK: "than say, thelaw"
[6:52 PM] SHADOWLINK: "or prod"
[6:52 PM] Xenquility: "how come?"
[6:53 PM] Slinky: "prod is best girl"
[6:53 PM] CAT: "SHADOWLINKToday at 5:27 PM a deer made of tiny weenies"
[6:53 PM] CAT: "sounds right up my alley"
[6:54 PM] CAT: "also i heard my name"
[6:57 PM] ARGdov: "I also wish we knew what the deal was with the green parallelos but"
[6:57 PM] ARGdov: "one thing at a time I suppose"
[6:58 PM] Xenquility: "I'd say we got a good 5 priorities here"
[6:59 PM] Xenquility: "1. Identity of Bu- Link's crew"
[6:59 PM] Xenquility: "2. Their plans"
[6:59 PM] Xenquility: "3. IIIII info"
[6:59 PM] Xenquility: "4. eoeoeoeo info"
[6:59 PM] Xenquility: "5. Green parallelos info"
[6:59 PM] Xenquility: "also how to save the world but i doubt we'll be told that"
[6:59 PM] CAT: "through the power of friendship"
[7:00 PM] Xenquility: "I hope winning involves sacrificing wolf"
[7:00 PM] CAT: "I've already sacrificed enough."
[7:00 PM] SHADOWLINK: ":open_mouth:"
[7:03 PM] CAT: ":dream:"
[7:05 PM] Xenquility: "okay time to go back into theory mode"
[7:07 PM] Xenquility: "so Bup only 100% disconfirmed the him being Tyler part of the theory but for now I'm just going to assume that meant the whole thing was stupid"
[7:07 PM] Xenquility: "I say we leave that out of our heads unless it's a last resort"
[7:08 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Mmmmm ok"
[7:08 PM] Xenquility: "ok greth"
[7:08 PM] ARGdov: "ok thats good"
[7:09 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Hmmmm"
[7:09 PM] SHADOWLINK: "if you say so"
[7:09 PM] Xenquility: "man vagueness really is my favourite thing about talking to these guys"
[7:10 PM] Xenquility: "i love not being able to tell what im supposed to gather from the situation"
[7:10 PM] ARGdov: "remember the days when people were a bit more forthcoming with information"
[7:10 PM] ARGdov: "good times"
[7:10 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Good point"
[7:10 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Maybe you all do need the confidence boost"
[7:11 PM] SHADOWLINK: "So I will say that calling me Greth is not inherently incorrect"
[7:11 PM] SHADOWLINK: "maybe a bit short sighted"
[7:11 PM] SHADOWLINK: "but certainly better than calling me 'Tyler'"
[7:11 PM] Xenquility: "are you"
[7:11 PM] Xenquility: "ALL THE GRETHS"
[7:11 PM] Xenquility: "lmao"
[7:11 PM] CAT: "He is every voice you have ever heard in your head"
[7:12 PM] Xenquility: "are you actually all the fucking greth's"
[7:12 PM] ARGdov: "lmao"
[7:13 PM] SHADOWLINK: "Kind of :moonthink:"
[7:13 PM] ARGdov: "I doubt that but its a thought"
[7:13 PM] ARGdov: "wait"
[7:13 PM] ARGdov: "what happened to AOs greth"
[7:13 PM] Xenquility: "moonman was sent back in time along with our greth"
[7:13 PM] ARGdov: "hmm ok"
[7:14 PM] ARGdov: "but ok, thats a slight clue"
[7:14 PM] SHADOWLINK: "clue?"
[7:14 PM] SHADOWLINK: "It's the answer"
[7:14 PM] SHADOWLINK: "he was right"
[7:14 PM] SHADOWLINK: "maybe in a vague way"
[7:14 PM] ARGdov: "pffff"
[7:14 PM] ARGdov: "in a vague way"
[7:14 PM] ADULT_LINK: "the :moonthink: makes me think hes moon"
[7:14 PM] ADULT_LINK: "think"
[7:14 PM] SHADOWLINK: "no"
[7:14 PM] ARGdov: "as always"
[7:14 PM] ADULT_LINK: "ok"
[7:14 PM] SHADOWLINK: "I just like that emote"
[7:14 PM] ADULT_LINK: "valid"
[7:15 PM] SHADOWLINK: "HOW MANY LEVELS OF GRETH ARE YOU"
[7:15 PM] SHADOWLINK: "I'm like"
[7:15 PM] SHADOWLINK: "I'm atleast like IIII"
[7:15 PM] SHADOWLINK: "that many at least"
[7:15 PM] Xenquility: "aren't you from like"
[7:15 PM] Xenquility: "every single ID"
[7:15 PM] ADULT_LINK: "spooky"
[7:15 PM] Xenquility: "I'm atleast like IIII -Shadowlink"
[7:15 PM] The Sun: "I heard we were sacrificing wolf"
[7:15 PM] CAT: "no"
[7:15 PM] The Sun: "Oh ok"
[7:15 PM] CAT: "he said hes in every single id"
[7:16 PM] SHADOWLINK: "READY OR NOT"
[7:16 PM] SHADOWLINK: "HERE I COME"
[7:16 PM] SHADOWLINK: "YOU CAN'T HIDE"
[7:17 PM] Xenquility: ""BUP 10:59 PM: "i am from every ID""
[7:17 PM] SHADOWLINK: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIXyKmElvv8"
[7:17 PM] CAT: "PLEASE WONT YOU PUSH ME FOR THE LAST TIME"
[7:17 PM] CAT: "LETS SCREAM UNTIL THERES NOTHING LEFT SO SICK OF PLAYING I DONT WANT THIS ANYMORE"
[7:17 PM] Xenquility: "oh shit comment from silentdork on that video"
[7:17 PM] Xenquility: ":dream:"
[7:17 PM] SHADOWLINK: "ebic trollin"
[7:18 PM] SHADOWLINK: "actually i just like this song"
[7:18 PM] ARGdov: "whats it say?"
[7:19 PM] Xenquility: "nothing I was kidding"

Summary

• BUP changes his username to "SHADOWLINK" and his avatar becomes an image of Link from "Link's Awakening" fighting Shadow Link. This was done after BUP claimed his previous username and avatar had become boring.
