The dialogue just doesn't feel normal. This isn't how I expect any regular person to talk, especially with the hope of containment.

Some of the supplemental materials for 55555 make me wonder if the in-group are the ones under 3125's sway, if it's involved. The willingness of the in-group to consider genocide… brrr.

Now that you and Djoric mention it, that simplistic element could need some more work. Well, I guess that’s pretty easy to fix, isn’t it? I’ll get to work now. Thanks for the help.

Adorable. Honestly adorable article, loved the characterizations here with the staff and GOI member. Adding this to my list of fun recommended reads.

This sounds like a wish spell gone wrong, or incredibly right depending on which side of the DM's screen you are on. Cure for your incurable disease? And you specified by removing the disease from your bloodstream? Sure thing.

There's a number of SCPs that seem to fill that kind of niche. I'm wondering if there can be a link between their origins. Someone with a sadistic bent doing "favors" for the desperate.

Nothing says that this is specifically an anti-HIV thing, that's just the dread disease our minds leap to. Bad blood has been blamed on a lot of ills throughout human history. Today we take it more metaphorically but that wasn't always the case and healers weren't very effective.

Sad that the picture was removed, but i still really like this SCP.

Take this upvote Clef.

This is a rewrite and I tried to improve the wording (the original version really sucked).

Page Type: SCP Article


Elevator Pitch: My take on the Chaos Insurgency. The chaos insurgency was created when a member of the serpents hand used an ai to brainwash people.

Central Narrative: The modern day foundation finds an incredibly high tech computer in the possession of a member of gamers against weed, who says he was gifted the computer in the late 2000s by an anonymous member of the serpents hand, on the condition that he keep it on at all times. The computer (and the ai inside) are the “engine” of the chaos insurgency, whose main goal is to spread 2 memetic hazards foundation personnel, the first being an image that makes people refer to themselves as the “engineer” of the chaos insurgency. Despite the fact that their are dozens of people who are infected by this hazard, they all refer to themselves as the only engineer, while refusing to acknowledge the existence of any other people affected by the hazard. The second makes people the actual members of the insurgency. Despite the fact that the hazard was only meant to be delivered to foundation personnel, the engineers distributed it to the internet, causing many civilians to join the insurgency, with only 5% of all members being of foundation origin. The main goal of the insurgents is to inconvenience the foundation as much as possible, most attempts make very minor inconveniences, with the attempts themselves being ridiculous (a site director who worked for the foundation for a decade for the sole purpose of eating his coworkers lunches) to tragic (a man jumping in front of an employee’s car to make him late to work, and getting killed in the process.

Let me start by saying that I have always been a supporter of the "999 being the son of the Sk" thing, even as it became more controversial over the years. And there is a solid foundation here for a final battle. However, I will have to somewhat agree with Djoric, that this is a rather simple tale with little references to some random SCP lore tidbits ever there. Honestly, I think the problem here is that the background lore feels too simple. I would not go as far as to say a "puppet show", but there is a sense of simplicity.

Honestly, I think the battle between 999 and the SK could work, but there needs to be more of, well a lot. More buildup to the confrontation, more character for 999, and more aspects of Sk's story. Honestly, this thing would work better after a series of stories rather than a one-off story.

There is a good idea here. by Dino talesDino tales, 19 Mar 2024 02:43

Please use this format when requesting greenlights:

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-13282684/required-reading:how-to-use-this-forum-ideas

But personally, you need to FOCUS. You've got ideas strewn all over the place, you're trying to stuff it with too much, and ultimately, it's just another "thing that does a thing" instead of a good story. Pare your idea down to maybe two or three essentials and come up with a tale to involve it in.

This sounds vaguely similar to SCP-2203, a "love machine" that, when you use it, it tells you where you can find love/meaningful relationships, and even gives you advice on how to go about making it work.

There's also SCP-5596 and 5433, which aren't quite the same, but in a similar ballpark.

I can't really think of a good way to make this stand out. Even the Twilight Zone did something like this.

Ikr. A waste of space for potential jems from others

Re: Book? by SheepGodSheepGod, 19 Mar 2024 02:23

this is a tale dressed as scp and I have no earthly idea why. It'd be perfectly suitable to just be told in straightforward narrative format. I mean it's not unique in this respect, and certainly half the 001 proposals would be better served as tales than scps, but this was such a long slog and every time I thought I was close there'd be one more addendum or interview. It doesn't help that the ending is telegraphed as soon as the Bumaro name is dropped.
It's otherwise quite a good sci-fi novella and if I had been expecting it's length, I might have enjoyed it's pacing more.
