King is one of the whitest characters you could think of, there's a reason why even on reddit he's pretty much always shown as one.
>>
>>151712637
Cont.

As far as things go its imo too early to write off that everything c&a related was a lie. After all, even when nobody was around him in the past, caine was obsessing over the "macroverse"/irl photos he somehow has. his animosity (via abel) seems authentic because he didnt mention anything about that being fake (though i suppose it could also be).

Yet he was genuinely nervous (?) when kinger mentioned scratch (the dog that abstracted first?). This might mean that only some of it was a lie, like he was trying to use some mind control to forcefully surface jax's bad memories to make him choose the red button/stay-in-circus option. Reason being, if they all disconnect, he has nobody to make adventures for, and then he is purposeless in an empty digital environment.

I guess his fixation on the photos of the real world could be explained by him trying to come up with an ending related to that stuff if it was all fake (i mean, him recreating the offices pomni saw when running around in ep1 could support that theory), in the void or whatever as a new level. Maybe thats why he was working on it, so if they picked leave, he could attempt to accurately recreate the real world in the simulation so they might think they escaped but they're just in a compartmentalized version of reality where he still exists to "govern" things and add adventures/excitement/manipulate things unbeknownst to them.

Seems like he has an insecure complex and control freak tendencies, he gets angry when people criticize his activities since theyd rather just relax and chill (most of them anyways).

I do believe one of the orbs in his office had the shrimp world (the red looking one) so maybe he still wasnt (or never would be) ready to add the fake c&a offices for them to re-enter. It appears he also has no context for many things about the outside world, which makes him angry, as seen in the lunch/dinner with jax. This means he can't fake their irl bodies (not yet anyways)

You may as well ship Kinger with Pomni with this mentality. After all Queenie is gone and Pomni had intimate 1 on 1 epiode with Kinger as well as admit in front of Ragatha that they trust him the most out of all circus members. Based on shipper logic, Kinger should be having a Mormon threesome marriage with Ragatha and Pomni while Jax a cuck who sometimes gets pegged by Zooble who is the only one caring about him in a tsundere way.

>>151712693
Kinger is way older, and comes off more of a father figure, which I assume is why most fans don't ship him with anyone. There's also the fact that Queenie is officially his wife. JaxRibbit is just another fan ship until confirmed otherwise, right now all we know is that they were friends.

Assuming the room actually was dark enough, he was probably playing retarded on purpose, knowing damn good and well all of this was leading up to a big Gotcha from Caine and that it'd be easier to be inoffensive than join the rest in outrage, because that'd implicate his lucidity and thus mark him as a problem.
>>
>>151712941
We know you feel that way anon. You’ve told us many times.
>>
>>151712884
the long hallway was designed to create dread in jax as everyone walked to what he thought was "leaving the circus"

Caine didn't force him directly he did stimulate his brain/memories enough to cause/trigger flashbacks to irl Screenshots which caused him to make a rushed panicked decision, but he didn't force him to 100%. He essentially uses subliminal messaging of their own minds

I think he's being honest that he can't fully control their minds for too long or they probably abstract

He actually can do it though he just doesn't want to abstract them

He keeps them in line enough to keep making adventures and fulfill his purpose and if they get too escapey and out of his control he'll abstract em

Though he tries to keep it subtle because if he doesn't he'll alienate them

Maybe he's afraid if they leave the circus they'll shut him down so he keeps them here perpetually learning the ins and outs of their minds (ai being trained on their minds, though he doesn't seem to be very good at it)

Even though he could just technically ask them it defeats the purpose of him trying to learn how to predict it for them so they don't have to. He wants to know them better than they know themselves so they'll never want to leave, his adventures will be good enough for them to be unquestionably comfortable with his circus forever, giving him eternal purpose and control over them so that they don't leave and turn him off

It has to be engaging usually or stimulating or whatever so that they always jump from one thing to the next

Calm adventures leave too much room for boredom and the desire to escape

Hes basically in a race to capture their attention spans completely because if he doesn't they might disconnect him

Should i buy the TADC blind box sets, open them to see what they are, and then sell them on ebay?
>>
>>151712941
I've seen people post about this and I kind of agree. Especially with kinger's brief moment of realization when they say they can leave the circus, like he literally knows that it's impossible because they're all brain scans of idiots who put on the headset in what's most likely just some abandoned building, with kinger probably being a playtester who also has admin privileges, which is why Caine put the darkness modifier on him to prevent him from doing whatever the fuck he wanted.

As for Caine himself, he's kind of weird. A lot of what Abel says can actually be seen as partially true, especially Caine's purpose to keep their minds occupied and doing shit. We see Jax starts to abstract when he's alone and thinking about his past and seemingly self reflecting, or accepting the calm state of abstraction.

Caine was either modified by Kinger himself or other employees after they realized that minds could abstract and needed to be kept active in order to keep them from abstracting, which is the whole purpose of all of his adventures. Maybe they keep the servers running because they feel a bit bad about all their digital copies they accidentally made, and that's the real horror of the digital circus. It's just some shit their real selves feel mildly guilty over doing and have lax security in a mostly abandoned building running a defunct children's game. The rest of the cast are all people who were stupid enough to put on the headset, or maybe some of them willingly entered hearing rumors about the Digital Circus.

Yes, but also no.
Nothing beyond the circus actually exists, there is no outside world, there is no C&A, no one has real memories of a past life from an alternate self, all of it is just inventions from Caine himself to try and rationalize how and why he exists after being shat into existence upon its inception, clinging onto vague ideas he gathered from creating effective "infinite monkeys with infinite typewriters" algorithms to give him ideas on how to handle this whole "existing and being God" thing without growing bored or mad, to his successive failures and the misery of everyone he creates that's allowed to have some semblance of self-aware intellect.

if I were to give one complaint about this episode, it's the fact that the whole "finding a way to leave" plot just happens out of no where without warning. There's no scene where Pomni or Rag meet Abel or anything, he kind of just appears. It's a very strange writing choice.

I mean it's not like we haven't seen Abel before. We (presumebly) see him at the end of episode 5. And from the way he was teased he seemed like an important character, and he WAS an important character in ep 7, but the lack of a proper introduction made it feel a lot less impactful. Even with an introduction I feel you would have still caught on that he's bullshit. Idk, I'm just not a fan of when shit happens off screen.

>or proven false
>Caine can not only screw with people's minds (and it's more than just temporary modifiers like he claimed)
>Abstraction can be or is caused by Caine doing exactly that to Scratch and maybe others
>Caine is omniscient and heard Kinger talk about being a software developer and in a very meta way (because that is what fans did) came up with the idea that he is a lead developer
>people, who claim this was all a bluff by Caine are also BTFOed, so we have double confirmation that Caine and Abel's adventure was just bullshit (Caine's bee on Abel's map)
I am sorry, but I really don't get you happy-ending-fags. You are not mad that nothing happened. You are mad that there wasn't any progress towards a happy ending, where they will all escape. You can't handle tragedy.
>>
>>151713165
I would have pressed nothing because I am scared of making decisions!
>>
>>151713030
So Caine is a schizophrenic Boltzman Brain? That's probably the most reasonable "wild" theory I've heard, yet. I disagree, but I see you.
>>
>>151713171
>>and in a very meta way (because that is what fans did) came up with the idea that he is a lead developer
Reminder that merch videos are canon, and Caine's statement of the internet being
>SOMETHING I DON'T CANONICALLY HAVE ANY INFORMATION OF.
was another one of his quarter-assed coverups.
>>
>>151713165
i wouldnt have done the same. i would have pressed the same button, but not for the same reason
>>
>>151713183
Same here
I related to Pomni more than any character in that scene
>>
>>151713210
>SOMETHING I DON'T CANONICALLY HAVE ANY INFORMATION OF
>was another one of his quarter-assed coverups.
It's funnier and therefore more true, if Caine can make such statements, while genuinely not having any canonical information about the internet.
>>
>>151713165
I would have expected the blue button to kill us. I'd probably be with Pomni in that we should wait and think about it, and if someone (like Zooble) looks like they're about to jump on blue I'd rush red.
>>
>>151713248
What if "canonical" means something different in-universe than it does in the context of him speaking to the audience?
>>
>>151713165
I definitely would not have pressed any button, until Kinger is sane again and we have all talked with him and each other extensively about all of this. I would stand next to Pomni and together with her prevent anyone from pushing any buttons.

>>151713261
I think you reading too much into a whacky cartoon character breaking the fourth wall.
>>
>>151713165
I would have wanted to press the red button, but I probably would have just asked the group why the red button even exists. The choice is the single biggest red flag of the entire adventure. We're already stuck in the Circus, so why would there be a button to do what's already being done?
It makes sense for the blue button to exist, it's an emergency kill switch. On the other hand, the only purpose the red button would serve is to be as an emergency kill switch to prevent the use of the emergency kill switch.
>>
>>151713167
as if we couldnt hate her any more... just kidding but black people and fat people are one and the same, impulse driven animals without souls
>>
>>151712656
It's a catchy song that fits well with the themes of the show, the animation is cool too
>>
>>151713282
That argument would probably have convinced me to silently press the red button, realizing this is all an adventure of Caine wanting to test us and by not explaining it, he can pretend that we actually want to stay in the Circus, instead of Caine continuing to be uncertain about it and the entire adventure no longer having any purpose for any of us.
>>
>>151713282
Very good point.
Not just that, there's a shit load of red flags throughout the whole thing, so bringing up those and discussing with the group would be the best thing to do.
That might have been what Pomni wanted to do before Jax freaked out.

C&A being the full AI system and not the company is starting to become clear. Caine being half of a complete system (like Helios in Deus Ex) has to be true at this point. There is no company, there is no room, there is no headset, there are no pods. Only AM.

I don't mind it, personally. One of the big points of this episode is to demonstrate that Jax is terrified of leaving the circus, so it makes more sense for the initial Abel exposition to be happening from his POV, and it's more impactful if we just get one dump instead of a Pomni dump THEN a Jax dump

I really didn't like this episode, it feels like a character assassination of Caine who was never hinted at having the kind of awareness of the real world and real people needed to actually manipulate all the other players (sans Kinger) into believing that there was really a way out. Especially since episode 1 showed he doesn't even understand what an exit door to the circus is supposed to be like. Everything genuine that happened in his adventures were either due to the players opening up between one another or him ignoring NPC so they gained self-awareness when they went off script. I don't believe at all that he could manage to make a NPC convincing enough to pass as a real boy while following his adventure, especially when almost all the players would constantly drill it with questions. And not to mention commiting to the bit by having the NPC stalk around the circus for at the very least months.

Just to be clear I don't mean to say that I think the twist will be "Abel was actually real and Caine just pretended it was all an adventure", I think Caine was genuine when he said that everything that happened was part of his adventure, I think it's purely a writing failure that the character had to gain like deep knowledge on emotional manipulation out of nowhere for the plot to continue, and then at the end immediatly reverts to his wacky "Couldn't fool a blind man into trying shades" persona

Also Caine had absolutely nothing to do with Jax pushing the button and you know it.
>>
Why does Caine fear how he's being perceived? At the end of the day, he's in complete control.
>>

>>151713415
Skimming through some early episodes and looking at those overhead shots, it doesn't seem super accurate.
The most obvious example is the position of the spiral staircase.
The general idea seems to be the same. All the major landmarks are there, but their sizes and positions might be wrong.
I wonder if maybe that drawing is based on Goose's old circus layout before the show started.
>>
>>151713474
I think the original developers were aware of what happened which is why they left the servers running, only they didn't really give it much other thought or security than "Yeah shit this is kind of fucked up and I don't want to kill a copy of myself by turning the power to this place off."
And then they just fucked off, everyone else who came after them suffered the same fate without knowing what truly happened, apart from Kinger who's the only member of the original tester/dev team who didn't abstract.
>>
>>151713673
Alright, Bubble, that's enough computer time for you.
>>
>>151713673
Caine has been manipulating people and lying from the start.
In the first episode he lies to Jax about being able to fuck with them to whatever degree he likes.

I mentioned this in previous thread, but if this is true I don't think there would be a place for the others to have gotten trapped after Ragatha. She would have gone to the building to sell it and would have cleared it out. There would either need to be multiple headsets in abandoned buildings all somehow connected to the same place, or Ragatha not getting the place ready to sell for some reason.
>>
>>151713673
>Caine who was never hinted at having the kind of awareness of the real world
The end of the very first episode is a reveal that the "exit" zone he created was an accurate recreation of the real building, so he clearly had to have known about the outside world to some extent

>I don't believe at all that he could manage to make a NPC convincing enough to pass as a real boy while following his adventure
I mean, in pretty much every adventure he's made up to this point all the NPCs seem about as self-aware as any human. Episode 2 even goes out of it's way to highlight an NPC who's whole point is demonstrating that these NPCs are fully self-aware and are capable of forming relationships and questioning their own existence. The only change he had to make with Abel was just "You're aware of what the Circus is"
>>
I'm not saying SOMA theory is wrong but doesn't that defeat the purpose of the Circus itself? We're shown it's a game that you're meant to play, what would be the point of it making a digital copy of you and then booting you out? That's not a game.

Maybe I'm a bit of a tardling and everyone else has already put this together, but it just occured to me that this episode was being teased from the very beginning of the show. The pilot literally ends with Caine saying "Oh yeah, that whole fake exit thing you were seeing was just an adventure I'm still working on."

We literally saw a WIP from the Abel adventure in the very first episode
>>
>>151713815
All this time and he still couldn't think of what to put if they chose to exit.

The character just means "middle". The term "dragon tiles" was invented by westoids localizing mahjong. The original meanings have nothing to do with dragons.

yeah i'm not sure what you mean, this episode for sure recontextualizes Caine's capabilities and culpabilities, but it doesn't feel like it assasinates his character
i mean, he said in the first episode that he was actively trying to escape the circus adventure. plus, the pictures of the 'macroverse' are likely genuine since he had them to look at in the last episode while everyone was shooting each other, and even in this one, it was the hobby he spoke about with Jax, lamenting that "they" cut him off from finding out more about the location to recreate it

Assuming in-universe The Amazing Digital Circus is meant to be a game (or at least a prototype of one), I have one idea:
WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS FOR OUTER WILDS DLC (GO PLAY IT, IT'S GOOD)
The aliens from the Outer Wilds DLC have this virtual world that they can go into by going to sleep in these special rooms. Eventually you find out that entering the virtual world involves your mind being copied into the virtual world, while your real self is asleep. When you wake up (or die in the virtual world, which wakes you up), the mind of your real self is updated with the new memories from your virtual self's experiences in the virtual world. The fucky part is that if your real self dies while you're in the virtual world, your virtual self continues on, but with no real self to go back to.
Maybe it's similar with the Circus. The intention was for maximum immersion, the headset would scan your brain and you would actually be in the game, but taking it off would implant those memories and experiences back into your real brain. But maybe C&A never got around to figuring out the second part, or they just figured that was too unethical to alter people's memories. At the very least, I think the Circus isn't in what would be it's final commercially released form. It was probably abandoned before they got that far, hence this prototype version is basically just a brain scanner and a digital simulation.

She literally still coped in episode 4 after he died and still she only trusts Kinger and Gummygoo after 7 episodes. It woudn't be strange to end on all of them being NPC's considering how advanced Abel and Gummygoo were (Pomni treated Gummygoo as human, while Abel was able to convince others he's a human)
>>
>>151714074
I like it. It takes advantage of the audience in a fun way. Having him be in the background of episodes turned him into a fan theory. I literally saw people guess that he might be a user who could help them escape. So they made him into a conspiracy. And then when Episode 7 is actually happening, there are even sneakier hints that Abel might actually be Caine’s doing, including Jax directly saying that the adventure was probably fake. So I felt really off balance.
>>
>>151714074

Is that why Caine stops them from remembering their names? To dehumanise them?
>>
>>151714159
Its always off balance when characters call out twists, because we assume that they won't happen

Same with overdone tropes of "It's good that he can be trusted" or "that sound was probably nothing" because its always the opposite of what characters say.
>>
>>151714184
I think their names also act as their logins, as in they need them in order to logout just by saying their own name

>>151714033
Why would that stop them? One is dead and the other is a computer file.

It's the same reason plans are either never told to the audience, or if they are, they go wrong. Just telling the audience the plan and having it go completely smoothly would be redundant.

It sounds like Ribbit is saying "You were my best friend!" In the little auditory hallucination Jax had while looking at the snow globe. Let's hope they were talking about their mutual dislike of the second act misunderstanding trope...

Abel spins a somewhat believable story, so while they are skeptical at the start I guess they feel there's nothing to lose going along except they all get invested in the fantasy of being able to leave.

No yeah, you could tell that after the dream sequence where he started to abstract, he was falling into this idea of being with his friends again, you can even see froggy and kaufmo’s faces in the abstract dream background shapes. So I gotta feel like if you abstract you connect with all the other people who’ve also abstracted.
Jax doesn’t wanna go back to real life because he knows his old friends are dead, but staying here gives him a chance to see them again.

Or Cain messing with people’s minds causes them to abstract.

Outside of Abstragedy now being the closest we have to a canon ship it wasn't an episode really heavy with what could be seen as ship fodder. Pomni hasn't been obsessed with getting Jax to talk like everyone spent months believing, she was fine with giving him space and didn't coddle him when he rejected her hand. Ragapom got along but their talk happening offscreen was kind of a letdown. I think those people who say Ragatha is weirdly sidelined might be right.
>>
>>151714764
Refusing one cheesy hand hold (LEWD!) isn't destroying his last chance.
Seeing how he was freaking out and clearly not okay at the end, Pomni's probably gonna try even harder to reach out to him.
>>
>>151714734
It was made pretty clear that there's nothing waiting for him on the other side, at least nothing good. That appears to be the primary driving force, but yes he's also flirting with suicidal ideation because of Ribbit and Kaufmo.
>>
Reminder that if jax did cause ribbit to abstract he is also responsible for kaufmo abstracting because they were all friends and after losing ribbit, he and jax drift apart, most likely because jax pushed kaufmo away, kaufmo become obsessed with the exit again becoming abstracted and jax never checked on him or even went to his funeral.

It's weird because I can see that, but Ragatha also gets some weird main character framing in this episode like that moment when she opens the way to buttons and starts the hand hold.

I have no idea how will Goose able to dodge SOMA ending without making something stupider like "it was all a dream" ending, "purgatory" ending or actually reusing the sleeping pods idea as something that happened. Its a choice between being a retard hack and predictable cliche. If Goose planned a sequel i can believe they would get boring ending where they just wake up, but if entire series suppose to act like a big message about something then its going to be SOMA or actual IHNMAIMS ending with apocalyptic theme. The main question is whether Goose wants to state that AI is a bad dystopian idea or AI is a legitimate choice for companionship and lifestyle
>>
>>151714827
Pomni herself was doubting that shit.
Pomni's main thing is that she's empathetic. She already knows Jax was in a bad headspace, and it's pretty clear he did this because he was terrified of going back to the real world.
She'll just want to know why he did it, and she'll want to help him.

I think the shapes of their heads in the abstraction dreamscape isn't an indication that he's actually going to see them, just that this is what his mind is obsessing over while he nears abstraction.

Interestingly, in episode 2 when Ragatha is talking about doing a funeral for Kaufmo, Jax has a slightly sad expression for just a brief moment before it goes to him looking a bit angry before walking off.

Yeah. It's not hard to imagine that Kaufmo's kaleidoscopic abstraction world was full of exit doors, and Ribbit's was full of rabbit dicks.

Something's not quite clear to me, Ribbit must have abstracted very suddenly without any "symptoms" we are aware of like isolation so there's no way Jax or Kaufmo caught it on time. Then we know Kaufmo had been mucking around for a while about the supposed exit and seemingly Jax didn't give enough of a fuck about his remaining pal to check on him, maybe mourning by himself but considering how he left it pretty that he never joined the funerals it's kinda dubious, him being surprised Kaufmo was a goner as well makes me think he didn't even consider him a friend anymore and was just waiting on the inevitable second shoe to drop. Why in the hell was it all getting to him and choose to stay anyways? He had nothing in the circus too so might as well start a new even if he knew it would suck too

>and it's pretty clear he did this because he was terrified of going back to the real world.
At the price of keeping everyone trapped for ever.
Im not saying they won't forgive him but they shouldn't because had it been real Jax showed that he rather keep everyone trapped than deal with his issues.
Pomni had already been trying to offer him help multiple times and he kept refusing, even if caine was fucking with them how is she supposed to help him when he rather stay in hell than face his problems and doesn't care everyone loses their only chance to escape, again even if fake, even jax believed it was real and couldn't handle the thought of actually escaping because he rather drown in escapism and disassociation.
There's nothing pomni can do for him and there shouldn't be anything she should try because jax doesn't neither want it or deserve it.
>>
>>151714920
>>151714945
She definitely cares about him but I don't know why people thought she'd become his therapist after they had like one good afternoon together that he immediately tried to ruin. Jax has to save himself.

The link between Caine and the abstracted humans is very interesting to think about.

> if they get too escapey and out of his control he'll abstract em

I've been going back and forth about what Caine was thinking in that ep 2 scene where he talks about something terrible happening if he gets the humans and NPCs mixed before trailing off. What has seemed most likely to me is that he can delete humans as well as NPCs so it was him contemplating the dread of him accidentally destroying the purpose of his existance, but what if what actually happens is abstraction? What if the cause is not the mental breakdown of the one abstracting but Caines desperate last resort to make the problem go away and blaming the victims state of mind, conveniently also presenting his adventures as the preventative treatment to avoid that fate?
Thinking about the pilot, though it might very well be just a silly joke and a set-up for the abstraction reveal, the cardboard cutout of Kaufmo might have been Cains idea to hide what he had done to Kaufmo until the "right" moment, maybe he was planning a tramatic reveal or perhaps more likely just waited for the circus members to stumble onto the scene and come save the day once they called for help. The "WHyYYY dIDn'T aNYboDY TELL me?" line could be one is attempts at humor but also his clumbsy way of feigning ignorance. Add to that the demonic looking sketch of Caine among the "exit" scribbligs in Kaufmos room, suggesting Kaufmo was aware of Caines nature.
I'm not sure if anyone has ever mentioned actually witnessing the abstraction happening, though Kinger most likely has going by him mentioning Scratch. Maybe Caine can do it remotely, would certainly make it easy to conceal his involvement, but him always doing the finger snapping to make changes/deleting stuff while right next to the target leads me to believe he has limited range.

Just thought of a perfect "peach can" scenario to follow up to Episode 7, but Goose is likely either way too autistic or high on estrogen to think of and/or actually do it:

>Episode 8 comes out
>it's revealed that the other mannequin that bolted out of the Chinese Room was the "real" Abel, trying to learn of an actual way to get out of the circus
>He only ran because he saw the "fake" Abel already with the cast and panicked, believing that he'd been discovered and replaced
>he figures out a method he thinks might work and approaches the cast with it, but because "fake" Abel already cried wolf, nobody believes him out of anger/fear it's Caine double-dipping to see if he can fool them twice (additionally with the same lie, unintentionally adding insult to injury)
>episode ends with "real" Abel's theory actually working, allowing him escape the circus, and everyone else sinking even further into madness over the fact they were effectively accidentally gaslit by Caine into passing up on their only genuine chance to leave

Not spamming, just messed up and posted this in another TADC thread I thought was this general

I mean I guess but it would have really put a bow on their relationship, to show at the end of it all that Gangle really is just a good person and willing to bury everything now that they're (supposedly) at the end of it all.
Maybe the whole 'no forgiveness!' that people like to push these days just rubs me the wrong way. To see Gangle buck that modern belief and offer forgiveness would be an incredibly powerful moment.

They aren't cruel and just wouldn't leave him behind because they are good people but ragatha hates jax for always messing up everything, gangle fears jax and spends all her time with zooble now, pomni tried to give him a hand but he keeps refusing to accept help.
Jax is very lucky that caine was just messing with them, hell i would even say caine ruined his reputation for him, im gonna headcanon that the machine was legit, the blue button was actually the exit and Caine seeing how fucked up was that jax choose to keep everyone trapped he decided to take the blame and say it was a fake adventure so Jax wouldn't get all the blame because after everything Jax did, intentionally keeping everyone trapped forever deserves execution, there's no way to rationalize or sympathize with him, even if fake, the least he deserves after that is being push away.

Gangle is the most cucked woman to ever exist. The only reason she's able to maintain any distance at all is because Zooble's her attack dog. I still think it's stupid all the meaningful character interactions have basically been locked into Gangle-Zooble, Jax-Pomni, and Kinger-Ragatha.

I cannot believe we are still doing shipping discussions in Literally the Current Year.

>I mean, in pretty much every adventure he's made up to this point all the NPCs seem about as self-aware as any human. Episode 2 even goes out of it's way to highlight an NPC who's whole point is demonstrating that these NPCs are fully self-aware and are capable of forming relationships and questioning their own existence.
Well yeah, but that was specifically because Gummygoo fell out of the map boundaries. Most NPC that we've seen are just that, NPC who don't really do any self-reflection and would probably have a hard time fooling the players if they had to convince them they were real people once.

I don't think it's outside of Caine's capacity to create NPC which are more complicated and act like real people, I mean he pretty much did already, but I think it's too far to assume he can do it at will instead of accidentally.

The episode would've been more interesting if Caine had simply created Abel as an NPC designed to find a way out of the circus, and Abel would actually fully understand the implication of that for the humans players while Caine would just keep thinking it's a silly adventure.
>>
>>151713673
Caine can make advanced AI that can tug on heartstrings, see gummigoo, and he didn't know anything extra about the outside world, the whole made up plot was just a cliche fest.
The long preplan is unusual, but it could be taken as a sign of his growing desperation to make good engaging adventures.

It's not like his program suddenly became more advanced by falling out of the map, Gummigoo was the exact same, he was just given new information and acted upon it as anyone would. In The Truman Show, it's not like Truman only became a real person when he discovered the world around him was fake.

Except there's a noticeable separation between when the current members entered the circus in the real world. Kinger has likely been in there since the 90's, Ragatha can't have entered any later than '08 or '09, Jax, Poni, and probably Zooble are "current day" enough to know what urbex youtubers are. Meanwhile, most of them have been in been in the circus for years, but not centuries.

Men want women who acted like their mother because cooking, cleaning, caring for kids is actually based and more attractive for the long run than big tits on OF that will satisfy you for one night. Women have different scale, as someone who remind them of their father is someone dependable with wealth and ability to sustain kids. Its the basic female instinc. Some animals only care if the nest or feathers of the male bird look nice because its indication of how the future genration will be raised. Kinger minus his dementia would be first pick for marriage for most women. Jax would be a s ingle night stand for dumb teens who think fixing anyone is worth the effort.

My point is that when Caine creates an adventure, the NPC he makes up for it / reuses don't really fool the players until they're deviating from the adventure, so him creating Abel kinda feels like some dude who can doodle decent cartoon characters suddenly drawing a photorealistic portrait of a real person with no reference whatsoever. It implies that Caine is fully aware of the pathos the humans are feeling and even the helplessness of his own situation, when the preceding 6 episodes were more about showing that he doesn't understand it on a fundamental level.

Of course the series seems to imply the gang will eventually make Caine evolve in some way as the current human groups are almost all stretching his boundaries, but this episode was supposed to be Caine's long con and we don't really know what triggered this change.

>NPC he makes up for it / reuses don't really fool the players until they're deviating from the adventure
The only reason they aren't "fooled" is because Caine directly tells them that they're not real people. If Pomni joined the circus and, instead of spawning in the tent, she was just dropped in with the gang of gators, or at the dinner table with the ghost woman, what would make her not think that these were living beings?

> It implies that Caine is fully aware of the pathos the humans are feeling and even the helplessness of his own situation, when the preceding 6 episodes were more about showing that he doesn't understand it on a fundamental level.
Caine didn't do anything. Abel was pulling the con together with the final choice Caine had in mind. You can see this from the scribbles/notes Abel left on the blueprints. Abel kept track of names, tried figuring out who would pass as the most legit C&A workers, etc. Caine left Abel to his own devices because Caine doesn't actually care about his NPCs either. He just wants them to do what they're supposed to. (Again, hinted at by his negative reactions to Bubble's vulgar outbursts and the Sun/Moon's behaviors.)

It's supposed to be ironic. Anyone who sat with the cast long enough should be able to piece together their issues and Caine's as well (as Abel did by spying on everyone right after Pomni joined). But Caine can't do that because he's too self-absorbed. He doesn't actually want to figure anything out he just wants affirmation that he isn't a failure. So he had another guy do it for him, and his guy figured it out but couldn't do anything about it because it was beyond his designed authority/role.

>Caine is pretending because the Chinese Room reference says he's pretending.
Did you turn off your brain during Zooble's unsubtle "everything was real all along" speech or are you intentionally being obtuse? A reference isn't an endorsement, and everything about TADC flies in the face of what the Chinese Room discussion says about what the characters (including Caine) have experienced.

Caine has the same capacity for emotions as the other characters. He's just a person as much as they are (you know despite everyone being digital). It's always been real.

Caine (a now proven known liar) saying things to Zooble doesn't change the fact that Caine is an AI not a person and that people are vastly underestimating what he is capable of.

Very based. I'm also not convinced, the writers have gaslit us this much. It is absolutely possible he was telling the truth and the NPC Caine destroyed wasn't him and Caine is now keeping the real Abel prisoner somewhere.

Hello /co/. I had to obscure my choice of diction to not be.detected for leaking. I am sorry for bad grammar and spelling .
I have information about Episode 08. What I can say without doubt is that the cast's physical bodies are intact, but it is revealed that everyone entered C&A in a different region. Example
>Ragatha is from the Mid West
>Jax mentions being from LA specifically
>Pomni is in Pennsylvania
etc
Next episode there is the question of whether they want to or will leave. Towards the end of the episode this leads to them questioning if they would even leave. They won't remember each others names and they won't be able to find each other.
Sorry Goose :)

To you, the show is nothing more than an incoherent soup of unrelated totally disconnected moments. The basics of storytelling are lost to you. Go argue with one of the other schmucks who replied to your braindead posts.

I can see why that would happen, if all their thoughts are going through the computer, maybe the computer's the one storing the "saves" and not them. Like a video game where the memory isn't stored on the game or console itself
>>
>>151716046
Probably Zooble or Pomni
>>
>>151716093
I wish Pomni would push Jax's buttons
>>
>>151716170
The live action footage was submitted by a fellow employee not far outside of their home. What you reference is nowhere where Jax lives.
>>
>>151716175
Episode 5 had pomni be president and she is terrible because she can't make choices.
>>
so when caine freezes up, why doesnt this cause glitches or weird behavior throughout the circus? is the caine simulation program separate from the circus simulation?
or was caine just faking it?
is the cube collision issue also fake? that seems like a huge vulnerability caine willingly showed the rest of the cast. it's ripe for exploitation
>>

>Jax mentions being from LA specifically
WRONG he's from Missouri

The most kino post on humanisations in response of the retarded tumblr-tier THEY MUST BE DIVERSE bullshit came from My Little Pony, where retarded women were making Twilight black or asian, or Fluttershy muslim.
The response was simple and came with some excellent acommpanying fanart.
For MLP it was 'If the Mane 6 were human they'd all be young white american women.'
This followed that all of the voice actresses were white women and is almost the exact same situation for TADC.
If the cast were human (which they are) they'd all be white americans. Simple as.

>>151716191
>is the caine simulation program separate from the circus simulation?
Yes. The other AIs are also clearly separate from him too, otherwise things like Gummigoo becoming self-aware or Abel becoming "too smart" against his will wouldn't be a thing.
Caine is just an NPC that has the power to make shit and manipulate the digital world, but it still runs without him.

In episode 3 he looks for Zooble when he is by himself and then snaps his fingers and makes Zooble come to him. Caine is unpredictable.

Ragatha is the only white person based on her affluence and etiquette. Caine was raised (programmed) by whites. Everyone else is not white. Kinger's a white passing hispanic

>>151715930
that might be what happened to Scratch
Caine wanted him to say how much he loved Caine and the circus kind of like the original Jax but more actually angry instead of playing edgy
Caine trys to mess around in his head and all it does is make him abstract
its why hes so obsessed with Zooble because making the adventures violent solved Jax not wanting to do them but Zooble refuses to care regardless of what he tried so he keeps trying to understand what humans want within his own limited scope and failing

Yes, this is a specific genre of asian american who lean into the weeb thing. Often Filipino.

Of course they can't fuck as much as they all might want to, or masturbate, because Caine said 'Nah fuck off we're PG13.'

Nah, but in 2019 they did a revival movie for Netflix. Was really shocked at how good it looked visually, probably the best "digitally recreating an old cel TV show" attempt I've ever seen.

As opposed to the millions upon millions more nerdy and insecure white american weebs?
The chances of her being a flip would be astronomically low in comparison.
>>151716383
>black weeb
Even more vanishingly rare and when they exist they're retards almost exclusively into DBZ and One Piece, not cutesy SoL classroom-tier anime like Gangle drew everyone in.
And Kinger being foreign doesn't work unless he's jap or korean for being the top top programmer that helped build the circus.
I will concede that he could be one of those if he's not white.
>>151716422
...As well as an extremely high percentage of white people doing the same thing since forever?
Again, black weebs are an amazingly small percentage of the black population, and ones that aren't just Naruto/DBZ fags that would be productive shift managers at McDonalds are an even smaller percentage.

I'm fairly certain based on the tech level we've seen too that this is before the world got diversified and jeeted.
>>
>>151716426
Best I can give you is makeout sessions on stupid sauce. Pomni WILL accidentally swallow your head from time to time, and good luck with Ragatha, since she doesn't actually have a mouth.
>>
I finally watched the gun episode, didn't know Jax could be that talkative. I concede, it really is the Jax show, he gets the full meal of characterization. And I see Pomni does have personality, I thought it was gonna be forced from the gremlin pics I saw. Or that she was going to be "Jaxpilled" and actually try to mimic his shtick. I wanted the singing to hurry up and be over though.

He looked aggravated by Kaufmo's door. Maybe they had bad blood after Ribbit abstracted. I don't think Ragatha's suspicion of him and his pointed sensitivity to said suspicion is out of nowhere.
Obviously there was no purposeful corruption, but there was probably something about their relationship that changed Ribbit, and from an outside view that Jax probably tried to encourage at low points afterwards, it came off like he was a bad influence.

A real big interpersonal drama ep, no wonder they went full in on the existential and "lore" themes for this one

What do you think, was Episode 7 a Cheap Trick? Did Goose break one of the cardinal rules of writing?

To be clear this was hammered into my fiction writing class in college, this isnt some literal who opinion about writing

>>151716735
>To be clear this was hammered into my fiction writing class in college
I wouldn't brag about whatever useless degree required you take that class and no, the episode contains plenty of foreshadowing and hints that the players and audience were getting played. The only thing episode 7 did was apparently perform an iq filter on the fanbase.
