      @@thebigdawgj nah, both are acceptable
      "try and" is more colloquial, but it's idiomatic english that's been attested literally as long as "try to", both going back to the 1600s; by some etymologists, it's possible that "try and" might even predate "try to"
      (keep in mind that the insistence on the importance of infinitives in english is, like prepositions only at the end of sentences, in large part a fiction constructed by grammarians in the 19th century who thought a more latin-inspired structure sounded more formal and proper, that in itself a hang-around from when french was the court language and originally introduced itself into english, relegating many germanic words and structures to a "common"/"low class" connotation as a result)
      famously, the lord of philology himself, JRR Tolkein, had his editor 'correct' "try and" to "try to" in Lord of the Rings, and he changed it right back and refused to let it be changed again

    Your enemy will never think that it births and chooses you as its failsave.
    To destroy the foundation, you just have to wait for them to find something they believe to be too strong,
    does not matter if it is or not. The failsave will ensure that the foundation does not exist, indefinitely.

      It's hard to tell if the author merely misrepresented SCP-2000, knowing that that's not how it was written but needed creative stretching room, or wasn't fully knowledgable about its details in the first place.

    Many franchises have moments where it is suddenly revealed that the events prior didn't matter because it was "all just a dream". Few have moments where the events prior didn't matter because it was NOT a dream.
    My theory the foundation would be re-created solely from the reader's memories in a 3rd reality. The reader will find themselves in a 2nd reality, one where the foundation never existed, one where hopefully they can learn some clue to defeating the perfect predator. Then their memories will be used to create a 3rd reality, one that is hopefully similar to the 1st except that now the foundation has a warning; a key bit of info that will hopefully be enough to save it.

    The details that you put in these videos are top notch Volgun. Phenomenal.

    Edit 2: listening to this again but I have in the background David Bowie’s As The World Falls Down and it’s a fitting song for this but that’s just me. One person gave all so reality, an existence can be reborn/continue as it once was. Again this is my interpretation of the entry. It’s sad but amazing read.

    • @BatttleBun
      @BatttleBun Год назад +3

      I think, in this case, it’s not even about “the few/one” vs “the many”. It’s the idea that D01, the reader, the Designated Survivor, cannot and will not continue to exist if this task is not carried out, because for the SCP Foundation to resort to the complete and utter annihilation of themselves and all reality, it means that there is NO surviving. For anything. It is, realistically, both the most selfless and selfish act to commit, because in opening this file D01 has destroyed not just the few, or the many, or even the entire Foundation. They have destroyed EVERYTHING. All of reality. They alone survive this contingency, and the price for their continued existence is to be chased, hunted and preyed upon for an indeterminate amount of time until they can rest, if ever that time comes. The rest of reality being born from the ashes of D01’s torment is more like a convenient side effect of something D01 would have to do anyway. It’s not really like they have a choice between “Open the file” and “Complete destruction”
      It’s not so much a case of “you suffer for us, we thank you” it’s more like “you have to suffer, and if you make it, it was the only chance you had”.

    Each story people write in our reality being a fragment of that final employee. Everyone who reads them and finds a connection with the SCP stories having a piece of that one inside of them calling out to remember.
    All so if the foundation should be needed again, many will know and be called out to help in the cause. Innately, the foundation can return for it exists in all who feel drawn to its call.
    At least that would be my idea for it. Makes the community that the name SCP has culminated feel that much more connected.
