Remember Arc
The Remember Arc covers the events surrounding the Remember.exe games posted on Within Hubris in 2013. While this isn't wholly a canon arc of the Johnisdead story, the games and events surrounding them are still tangentially connected to the ARG and will be documented below.

- At an unknown time, a user named "BEN" contacted the player Crash. While the contents of this conversation are unknown, it is said that "BEN" was posting in a manner similar to "BEN" from Jadusable's Ben Drowned ARG. "BEN" gave Crash a specific time to "come see him". This message was presumably accompanied by a Mediafire link that contained a download link for a file named "Remember.exe".
- At an unknown time, the player Crash unfortunately had to leave early, missing the time initially set up to meet "BEN".

At 5:30 PM, "BEN" joined the Within Hubris Chatango - a livechat hosted on the Within Hubris message board. They were now going by the name "BE".
