Be careful, Messenger! Looks like this is an unfinished section. Admins of the wiki couldn't fill it with the necessary information in time, but maybe you can?
There is currently an ARG in the official The Messenger Discord. Hints of the ARG were thrown November 20, 2018, and the ARG truly began December 8, 2018, when The Archivist joined as a member. Other characters from the universe of The Messenger have visited, such as The Shopkeeper, the Clockwork Concierge, and Suses.
Note: Some messages from other members that were posted in between the characters' messages were removed for readability.
The Version 1.0.4 update released on November 20, 2018. On that day, The Shopkeeper chatted in Soleil's Twitch stream of The Messenger. The Shopkeeper revealed the existence of an unknown character named "The Archivist."
Kammesennin
Also... let's not forget the possibility of alternate universes wherein something MAY happen, and if it does in an alternate universe he still didn't lie.
Kammesennin
Marty! You're not thinking fourth dimensionally! Or is it fifth? 🤔
LeShopkeeper
Alternate universes?
LeShopkeeper
How would you know?
Kammesennin
By asking the guy who waits at the end of time of course
LeShopkeeper
You didn't touch the orb, did you?
Kammesennin
Oooh was I not supposed to do that?
LeShopkeeper
When YOU were the shopkeeper yes, but you wouldn't
LeShopkeeper
So now that you shouldn't, you do?
LeShopkeeper
Unreal...
Kammesennin
Well I figured that since I was meant to be the shopkeeper it would be fine now.
LeShopkeeper
Hey I get it
LeShopkeeper
Besides, since The Archivist was lost in a rift, it's best we all pitch in on trying to figuring things out
Kammesennin
Archivist? Sounds pretty important. Didn't anyone try to find them?
LeShopkeeper
Oh, you didn't know?
LeShopkeeper
Well I...
LeShopkeeper
I probably shouldn't have mentioned that
Kammesennin
No... I feel like you may have forgotten to mention that.
LeShopkeeper
Nevermind.
Kammesennin

November 21, 2018
In the PC version of The Messenger, the dialogue files are easily accessed from a folder called "StreamingAssets."
Before the Version 1.0.4 update, there were only 3 dialogue files.
Credits.tsv, which contains the credits.
Loc.tsv, which contains cutscene text, Quarble death text, menu text, and some credits-related text.
LocDialog.tsv, which contains the character dialogue and generic narration box text.
The Version 1.0.4 update introduced 2 new dialogue files.
Loc_Plus.tsv, which contains various menu texts involving some of the newly-introduced features (button rebinding, New Game +, Prophet hints in the scroll, and the Jukebox).
LocDialog_Plus.tsv, which contains new generic narration box text, Shopkeeper text, and Quarble text.
However, the "LocDialog_Plus.tsv" file has a secret message, hidden hundreds of empty lines below the normal game dialogue. This message does not ever appear within the game itself and is only found within the game files.

When The Archivist's secret dialogue in the dialogue files was discovered by Soleil, a new text channel in the official The Messenger Discord appeared, called #the-void. This text channel acted mysteriously, popping in and out of existence and sometimes floating up and down the list of channels. Pictures could not be uploaded to this channel, unlike with the other text channels.
When members posted a few comments into #the-void, #the-void would disable the ability to post further comments. #the-void would disappear and return at random times, with any previous messages completely erased. And eventually, no one could comment in #the-void, with one exception; Soleil was granted a Discord role called "Loremaster," which allowed her to comment in #the-void. #the-void channel would frequently pop in and out of existence, and if commented in, would force-disable any further comments until its next reappearance.
December 8, 2018
The Picnic Panic DLC trailer was released on December 8, 2018. The trailer showcases Ninja's adventures in the tropics. And at the 0:22 mark of the trailer, a splash text image titled "VOODOO MAGIC" appears in large stylized letters, corresponding to The Archivist's message, "...use the voodoo magic word, it was etched in stone somewhere in the tropics..." After the words "VOODOO MAGIC" appear in the trailer, Ninja jumps through a circular time rift, transforming the world from 8-bit to 16-bit. He runs forward, passing by a stone slab in the background. This stone slab has runes etched into it, using the in-game alphabet. When translated, the stone slab reads "TUWHERA."
When #the-void reappeared, the word "TUWHERA" was posted into it. A new member named "TheArchivist" joined the Discord, a person with the "Loremaster" role. The Archivist posted messages in #the-void on December 8, 2018. By December 11, 2018, the "Loremaster" role was removed from Soleil, as the "Loremaster" role was transferred back to The Archivist.
The Archivist used #the-void channel as a means to communicate with the community. No one could post in #the-void channel except for The Archivist, but members could add Discord emoticons as reactions to his comments. Furthermore, after The Archivist finished posting messages for the day, he would completely leave the server. Each time, he would join solely to post his messages, then leave the server.

@everyone I have returned, Messengers.
I am here to offer you either Knowledge , or Opportunity
If you choose Knowledge , I will give you a significant piece of information regarding The Shopkeeper's true identity. If you choose Opportunity , I will stabilize a portal that will allow legendary composer Rainbowdragoneyes to join your community permanently.
Choose wisely, for the option you leave aside may never present itself again.
What will it be, Knowledge , or Opportunity ? Now, consort, Messengers, and cast your votes!
I will return in 5 hours.

@everyone Greetings, Messengers. It seems you have many questions, but our ultimate goal is impossibly far from reach still.
Today you must choose between Immediate Reward , and Deferred Gratification
Should you choose Immediate Reward , I will confirm whether or not the Money Sink is of any use. Should you choose Deferred Gratification , I will ask SaboTeam to take a major step in recruiting more Messengers, taking us closer to the amount of adventurers required before the next big adventure can be unvealed . Doing so will also add a third voting icon for future choices.
Choose wisely, for the option you leave aside may never present itself again.
What will it be; Immediate Reward , or Deferred Gratification ? Now consort, Messengers, and cast your votes!
I will return in 5 hours.

@everyone Thank you, Messengers, your voices have been heard.
Since you have chosen to orient efforts towards the grander scheme, I will ask SaboTeam to expose more potential Messengers to Ninja's story by bringing his adventure to an additional platform. This is your doing, and you have chosen wisely. Expect the announcement sometime next month.
I must retreat for now. GODSPEED, MESSENGERS!

@everyone Ahoy, Messengers! I have been paying close attention and it seems your interest in The Shopkeeper's identity will not go away. The big adventure I will need you for is still a couple of years ahead of us, but your deduction skills will be of great use, and I am curious to see how fast you can all get to the bottom of this little mystery.
I will offer you three statements relating to The Shopkeeper; one of them is completely true, one of them is completely wrong, and the other contains an important mistake. I will then gather your votes on which statement you would like confirmation on. If you pick the statement that contains an important mistake, it should give you a lot to mull over. Should you choose poorly, you will have to ponder each of the two remaining statements equally.
Here they are: The Shopkeeper is The Bowman (or Western Hero from Ninja's perspective) From Ninja's perspective, The Shopkeeper is usually in the shop, and he has stories to share The Shopkeeper is the first of the Blue Robes Order, and also the first Messenger
I will return tomorrow. Choose wisely.

@everyone Right on time, thank you for your votes. The majority has spoken, so I shall offer clarity.
You chose "The Shopkeeper is the first of the Blue Robes Order, and also the first Messenger" This statement is completely true.
While it was not the ideal pick, you now only have two remaining statements to comb through.
Now consort, Messengers! I will be watching, and return once you have covered enough ground.
GODSPEED!

@everyone Good day, Messengers. I have been paying close attention, and while your gr [missing transcription] next big chapter, it is my estimation that you are worthy of some more insights.
Today I am here to let you choose between Knowledge , Purpose , and Curiosity
If you choose Knowledge , I will share with you what my moniker was before I became known as "The Archivist" If you choose Purpose , I will give you a clue as to why I first needed you to witness Ninja's story If you choose Curiosity , I will ask SaboTeam to reveal today a new creature found on Voodkin Island
Cast your votes, Messengers! I will return in a few hours.
An overwhelming number of VoteO votes overtook the poll before proper discussions about the vote could take place. Some discussions took place about the preference of VoteX by some of the more active members, but the poll was already extremely lopsided towards VoteO and looked like there was no chance for the other poll options. Multiple members expressed disappointment about the lack of proper discussion. This caused The Archivist to message Thierry to restrict access to #the-void, making #the-void only viewable to members with the "Ninja" Discord role.
#spoilers
Kammesennin
got hit hard and fast
Kammesennin
No discussion even...
Kammesennin
I'm disappointed in the lack of discussion before votes to be completely honest. We're meant to work together here.
Spiderbenb
Agreed
VeggieDelphine
I guess only the population of spoilers want to know who is the Archivist
Kammesennin
I mean vote how you want, but let's discuss first is my opinion just so we can all be certain of our individual votes.
Later
Spiderbenb
I think we can assume has a certain reason behind it, perhaps something we missed? Otherwise i believe that we were shown Ninja's Story because it's the only Story we know where we destroyed The Curse.
Later
Spiderbenb
But i wholeheartedly agree that there should be an ACTUAL discussion for voting. Since some of us are getting drowned out for the answers we really want.
Later
OHSHIET
Let's not vote at all. Maybe we will find an easter egg by surprising The Archivist
Spiderbenb
Vote yo.
VeggieDelphine
Too late for that
Kammesennin
I would actually agree if others didn't jump the gun.
Kammesennin
Now it's like we vote on something or we just don't participate while the ARG moves on.
Spiderbenb
To be fair though. The "others" that jumped the gun aren't even active on the server.
Later
Spiderbenb
I'm talking about the 110 others online.
Spiderbenb
The ones that just kinda...lurk and vote all willy nilly.
VeggieDelphine
Let’s not become elitists
OHSHIET
Let' ask The Archivist not to ping everyone so inactives won't pick mindlessly
Spiderbenb
I'm not, im just pointing out that those folks only come out when a vote is being placed.
OHSHIET
(Nah it won't help)
VeggieDelphine
Yes I agree
Kammesennin
We also have some people that voted for all 3...
Spiderbenb
I always vote for one thing
VeggieDelphine
I was gonna do that but seeing the difference with
VeggieDelphine
I chose just one and added a few
Kammesennin
Maybe The Archivist should summon a portal to a Strawpoll with some IP dupe checking. Sure you can get around it if you really want to, but it avoids some of the lazy multi-voters.
VeggieDelphine
If everybody who vote participated in the discussion here ... we would be 100% of the time online
Thierry
Hey everyone
Spiderbenb
But some folks choose not to join chat here.
VeggieDelphine
With just 4 person there sometimes is 700+ more messages to read in the morning

Hey Thierry

Oh hey
VeggieDelphine
Hi Thierry
Thierry
That ruckus caused The Archivist to message me
Later
Thierry
I'm not clear on what's going on in #the-void , but basically he asked that only those with the Ninja role be allowed to vote from now on
Later
Thierry
I made the change, I guess let's be careful who with add to the ranks
Spiderbenb
Not to hate on the inactives here, but they really throw a wrench in what we discuss here
Thierry
I have no horse in this race, but hit me up about anyone who should get the role
However, The Archivist kept messaging Thierry even after this change was made. The Archivist made another request, to reset the vote in #the-void.
#spoilers
Thierry
Wow I can't get any work done today, boss keeps messaging
Thierry
SO
Spiderbenb
Multitask
Thierry
The Archivist has decided to reset the vote, and keep the void hidden to those who are not Ninjas, but demands that discussions still take place in public channels so that other potential high profile Messengers may be recruited.
Thierry
So I guess it's up to you all to have it stay this way
But a few minutes later, The Archivist expressed his anger.
#spoilers
Thierry
uh-oh, boss is mad
Thierry
The Archivist deleted his original poll, replacing it with a new, unfavorable poll.

3:14 PM (EST)
TheArchivist
@everyone Messengers, it seems you have chosen to voice grievances instead of attempting broad collaboration.
Here are your choices :
If you choose , I will close The Void. If you choose , I will ask SaboTeam to make the second chapter of "Barma'thazel's Revenge" a paid DLC instead of free. If you choose , I will mute the Ninja role in all channels for 48 hours.
If you show unity and tie this vote, I will present the previous opportunity again. Everything has a price. I will return in a few hours.

TheArchivist
@everyone One vote each. Do not test me again.
3:45 PM
TheArchivist
@everyone So far so good. Regardless of the outcome, the "Voidmender" vanity role will be granted to all those who participated in this important vote. Two hours remain.
During this stretch of time, the votes fluctuated many times, in an attempt to keep balance. When the balance was tipped, many members cooperated together, offering to remove their vote or to add their vote to the appropriate poll option. Members coordinated together to figure out the best way to keep the poll in balance while also getting as many people as possible to participate in the vote so that they could all share the vanity role, "Voidmender."
As discussions took place in the #ninjas text channel, one member, Kammesennin, offered to give up his vote if it came down to the wire.
#ninjas
3:47 PM (EST)
Kammesennin
The role is incentive. People WILL vote. Let's just keep doing what we've been doing and stay organized to maintain that tie.

I am willing to lose the role in order to maintain the tie if it comes down to it.
Kammesennin received a private message from The Archivist.
This is the beginning of your direct message history with @TheArchivist.

Everything has a price. Let your heart know for sure that once it is paid, it will be as if nothing happened.

At 5:45 PM, #the-void channel completely disappeared. Time passed with unease, as votes had changed during the last few moments, and it was unclear if someone had tipped the balance at the last second. But a few minutes later, members noticed that those who participated in the vote had a new vanity role, "Voidmender," which shared the same green color as The Archivist's "Loremaster" role. Those who participated but sacrificed their vote in order to keep the vote in balance, did not receive the vanity role, "Voidmender."
About half an hour later, #the-void came back. All messages posted in #the-void during January 23, 2019, were completely removed and replaced with the following message.
#the-void
6:12 PM (EST)
TheArchivist
As so The Void has been mended. Congratulations Messengers, your display of sacrifice and dedication to one another makes me hopeful for what lies ahead.
Though today's events were erased form the timeline, I trust the lesson learned will live on in your hearts. I will return soon to present once more the opportunity that was missed earlier.
GODSPEED!
Some time later that day, The Archivist was kind enough to award those who participated but sacrificed their vote the "Voidmender" role anyways. From that day forward, #the-void would remain only visible to members with the "Ninja" role.
The next day on January 24, 2019, the reasoning for The Archivist's anger the previous day was described more clearly by Thierry in the #ninjas text channel.
#ninjas
Thierry
yes, but the need for ninjas only to be able to vote couldn't be resolved
Later
Thierry
causing yesterday's crusis

Thierry
it's what caused problems yesterday, the overwhelming number of inactives quickly voting on something they don't fully understand invalidates the vote of those truly invested

During all of the void-related shenanigans and the critical void-mending vote on January 23, 2019, KuningasEST was streaming a speedrun of The Messenger on Twitch. It was also KuningasEST's birthday. The Shopkeeper dropped by KuningasEST's Twitch stream to wish him a happy birthday. The Shopkeeper explained that he got Suses to bake KuningasEST a pixel cake, and that it would be delivered to the official Discord.

@everyone And so you wish to know more about me, the one who, in an attempt to solve it all, ended up causing it all. It is still much too soon to unveil my full story, but I will now share a very important piece of information I was hoping to save for later:
Before I took upon myself to roam alternate realities in an effort to catalog the complete space-time compendium looking for a solution, I was known as The Alchemist.
While I acknowledge your decision and recognize that you have earned this piece of information, it is paramount that you ponder why I first needed you to witness Ninja's story.
I must retire for now. Godspeed, Messengers!

@everyone It seems making the red herring green was all it took.
While you have yet to realize why I needed you to witness Ninja's story first, that bit of information is subjective to me and would never be found in an objective record of events.
Ninja's story has already been fully fleshed-out for you by SaboTeam, but reagardless, I offer you this mostly redundant excerpt:
TheArchivist
As some of you seem to doubt the real impact and potential of the choices I regularly present you with, I want to share today a few hints on what you missed: Had you chosen , I would have shown an excerpt detailing very important information about my origin story. Had you chosen , I would have shown an excerpt detailing what the Demon General's special power was before he lost an eye, and how he came to lose it. Had you been daring enough to choose , I would have reluctantly shown you the cover of the second book I intend to give SaboTeam, showing the title of the next big adventure way ahead of time.
I can not solve this on my own. Moving forward, I hope you can appreciate the importance of your contribution. Godspeed!

Ninja's Story is just something he needed us to witness first to prepare us for it. What he wants us to discuss concerning it is why

Kammesennin
I wouldn't mind him popping up one day like "YOU GUYS FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT! I was beginning to question if you even would!"
Doom Man
I will do anything that means seeing the archivist himself more
Spiderbenb
He says it's Ninja's Story, but what if it's a character within Ninja's Story that we need to look at? We don't have to really look at Ninja for this, but what if it's actually someone within the story that has more value to them than what we originally thought?

@everyone Greetings, Messengers. I have been following your discussions and I must say your dedication gives me hope.
Today I present to you stone tablets which, properly ordered, should help give you a better sense of scope.
Consider the following options, and cast your votes in ascending order to try and complete the timeline properly.
That is, the option with the least votes would be the first one on the left, all the way to the option with the most votes occuring right before the last event already in place on the timeline below.
For this occurence only, you are free to vote as many times as you wish. But whatever you do, do not cause a tie.
Now consort, Messengers, and let your united voice be heard! If you can solve this puzzle, I will share more information on how and why I became immortal.
I will return tomorrow. GODSPEED!

That Timeline is entirely accurate. Congratulations, and thank you, adventurers, your attention to detail and ability to negociate with each other has warmed my heart once again. Since you have beaten this challenge, I will now share a little more.
-Mine is a tale of forbidden love. After becoming alchemists, we set out to create the Elixir of Life, so that we could live until society became more accepting. -I am not a Blue Robe. As conveyed by this completed Timeline, I predate their order by an unfathomable stretch of time.
It will be a while until my next visit. In the meantime, I will ask SaboTeam to make this community hub a more habitable place. Oh, and do try to recruit the Clockwork Concierge, he's a thorough one and should come in handy. Please tell him I said hi.
Farewell for now. And as always, Godspeed, Messengers!
Spiderbenb summoned the Clockwork Concierge back to the official server. The Clockwork Concierge was unsatisfied with the member count and renegotiated a higher wage with the admins before leaving again.

Clockwork Concierge
Who dares ring the bell?
Clockwork Concierge
What is this @Philip? I thought we had an agreement. A thousand members!
Philip
This didn't pick up the way we expected, can't you just join us now?
Clockwork Concierge
Preposterous! I have standards!
Clockwork Concierge
Unless of course, we can renegociate my wage.
Philip
Yo @SaboMart - Can we do something about this?
SaboMart
Hmm. You know how cheap I am.
SaboMart
But I like the Concierge a lot. Would a 25% raise be ok for you ?
Clockwork Concierge
25%??? Preposterous!
Clockwork Concierge
How about 50?
SaboMart
30%
Clockwork Concierge
45%!!
SaboMart
40%. That's the final offer!
Clockwork Concierge
...
Clockwork Concierge
Fine. But I'm not coming back until you at least reach 500.
SaboMart
DEAL!
Spiderbenb
What's our Member count currently?
Clockwork Concierge
I'll go back to the Clockwork Castle for now. Farewell!

Rainbowdragoneyes, the composer of the music for The Messenger, had a casual conversation with The Shopkeeper. The Shopkeeper offered Rainbowdragoneyes an opportunity to fast-travel to SaboTeam's office using a portal that would be created by The Artificer. In return, The Shopkeeper requested some tiki music for his Picnic Panic tiki shop.
#general
Kammesennin
I'm just gonna stick to judging for that one time Shopkeeper was here and willing to answer a question and the question nobody asked was "Do you have any stories to share?"
dosboxfalco
wtf
VeggieDelphine
Gooberbarbarian
VeggieDelphine
I still feel bad about that
dosboxfalco
we're self-aware enough to do that nowadays, thank goodness
Gooberbarbarian
Wait RDE I have a legitimate question
Rainbowdragoneyes
Ok
Gooberbarbarian
Ahhhh the shopkeeper joined
VeggieDelphine
OMG
Gooberbarbarian
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Thierry
Well well well, if it ain't @Rainbowdragoneyes
Gooberbarbarian
Speak of the devil much
VeggieDelphine
So your question is canceled ?
Thierry
I think you triggered the shopkeeper :\
Rainbowdragoneyes
Well well well if ain't well well well
The Shopkeeper
Oh I'm just lurking
Rainbowdragoneyes
How ya feelin @Thierry
The Shopkeeper
This explains why you wouldn't answer my DMs
Thierry
...
The Shopkeeper
So, "RDE"
Rainbowdragoneyes
Oh hey, @The Shopkeeper
The Shopkeeper
I listened to the Surf music track today and I gotta say, I'm still waiting on that tiki music for my shop
Rainbowdragoneyes
You are? Have you been on vacation or something?
Rainbowdragoneyes
I had it installed recently
The Shopkeeper
I've been preparing for the adventure, Voodkin Island is... well, I guess you know now...
Rainbowdragoneyes
I heard, poor Phobekins
Thierry
Come on @The Shopkeeper, the portal won't remain open for long, plase ask already
The Shopkeeper
Huh
Rainbowdragoneyes
Are we supposed to be asking him something?
The Shopkeeper
I am
Rainbowdragoneyes
Oh
The Shopkeeper
It's a bit embarrassing
The Shopkeeper
And for the record, I wish you would answer my DMs moving forward, so that I don't have to waste my time here
The Shopkeeper
SaboTeam needs your help once again
The Shopkeeper
Hands on help, that is
The Shopkeeper
What are your plans for next week?
Rainbowdragoneyes
Wait do I have DMs? How do I discord
The Shopkeeper
@Rainbowdragoneyes if you are available, I will ask The Artificer to open a portal to SaboTeam's office so you can be with them next week
The Shopkeeper
All I ask in return is that you hook me up with tiki music for my shop
Rainbowdragoneyes
Sure, got nothin going on
Rainbowdragoneyes
Tiki themed you say?
The Shopkeeper
Tiki themed, yes
VeggieDelphine
But the Artificier is the one doing a favor
The Shopkeeper
With lots of beeps and boops
VeggieDelphine
What will he get
Rainbowdragoneyes
You know me and my beeped bopps
Rainbowdragoneyes
boops
Rainbowdragoneyes
i cant spell or do anything right
The Shopkeeper
@VeggieDelphine It's more about what he won't get
Rainbowdragoneyes
@The Shopkeeper was it you that hacked my websites?
The Shopkeeper
@Rainbowdragoneyes if your indirectly asking whether we are even now, yes
Wait shoppy can u say my name so I can screenshot it and frame it on my wall
Kammesennin
Do you have any stories to share?
VeggieDelphine
Shoppy can you tell us anything on the other blue robes
Rainbowdragoneyes
Yes go peddle your wares to wanton adventurers
Gooberbarbarian
Wuts ur favorite flavor of boba teaaaaaaaaa
The Shopkeeper
Sure, feel free to waste this second opporutnity
VeggieDelphine
Who is your least favourite ninja?
Gooberbarbarian
Oof

There you go : Gooberbarbarian
Later, members were wondering which question The Shopkeeper was answering, and Thierry clarified.

The Clockwork Concierge returned and recruited Kammesennin as a moderator for the official server. Then the Clockwork Concierge left again.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Good day, everyone!
Clockwork Concierge
My, how time flies. I see a lot of activity, please tell me I haven't missed the 500 mark!
Kammesennin
Not just yet
Clockwork Concierge
Excellent. I was worried for a moment there, I shudder to think of how unprofessional it would have been of me.
Clockwork Concierge
At a later time then. Meanwhile, I believe this place could do with an additional moderator.
Clockwork Concierge
Let me see...
Clockwork Concierge
@Kammesennin, I have been watching you and believe you are worthy if such a title.
Kammesennin
Clockwork Concierge
Do you accept this mandate?
Kammesennin
Kammesennin
I... Yes! I do!
Kammesennin
I'd be a fool to say no.
Kammesennin
I am honored by your consideration!
Clockwork Concierge
It is settled then. I will return to fullfill my end of the bargain as soon as you all fullfill yours.
Clockwork Concierge
Back to the Clockwork Castle for now! Farewell, Messengers.
March 12, 2019
After 500 members joined the official Discord server, Clockwork Concierge was successfully recruited to the server, where he serves as a bot and a moderator. He (mostly) uses dialogue boxes as a form of communication rather than just plain text.
The Clockwork Concierge cleaned and rearranged some of the channels, such as renaming the #ninjas text channel to #ninja-village. The Clockwork Concierge chatted with members, and he explained that he was sent to the server by The Archivist. The Concierge also hinted at #the-shop text channel and gave more information about the Clockwork Castle.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Good day, Messengers!
Clockwork Concierge

Please visit the rules channel at your earliest convenience.

Clockwork Concierge
Try me, Spiderbenb.
Doom Man
Lead us to your creator- Uh I mean good day Clockwork Concierge! May you give us insights on how you were born and what lead you to do what you do today?
Clockwork Concierge
Apologies, Doom Man. I am not at liberty to speak of my origins.
VeggieDelphine
who is your boss ?
VeggieDelphine
who lives in the clockwork castle ?
OHSHIET
Hey Clockwork Concierge, why is there so much useless empty space underneath?
OHSHIET
BUG OR FEATURE?!?!?!!
Clockwork Concierge
The Archivist sent me. I am not at liberty to speak of my duties over at the Clockwork Castle.
Spiderbenb
Where is The Clockwork Castle anyways?
Clockwork Concierge
I must admit I am also quite unnerved by all this empty space every time I speak. It seems Philip's plate is quite full indeed.
Clockwork Concierge
Curious, are we? The Clockwork Castle floats above the open sea, slightly to the west of where Ninjas live. Whether or not adventure will take you there is yet to be determined.
Thierry
wooooo easy there concierge
Thierry
we only promised to do chapter 1
Clockwork Concierge
But chapter 3 is my favorite!
Thierry
take it up with The Archivist, I'm not discussing this here
Doom Man
There's one more thing I'd like to know, and of course you don't have to answer if you can't. How's Manfred doing? Do you two go well together? And if so do you think we'll ever get to meet him too here?
Clockwork Concierge
...
Thierry
yo @Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator) can you make the concierge not so keen to give out spoilers?
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
I'll have to read The Clockwork Concierge volume 2 to dive into more advanced features.
Clockwork Concierge
Doom Man, it would seem that that is actually not enough text for one dialog box.
March 13, 2019
Nothing out of the ordinary happens.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Yet another useless command Philip, you have so much to learn.
Spiderbenb
Wowzers
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
That's a complicated engine, managed to implement stuff up to page 17 of the first manual.
Clockwork Concierge
Why don't you give him a hand Spiderbenb?
Spiderbenb
Well now I'd love to. I got nothing better to do today anyways.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Sure, I just realized the Clockwork Concierge engine can inform you of the level of knowledge you have of it. If you send him !version he will give you feedback about your current implementation.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Still very early it seems.
VeggieDelphine
!version
Kammesennin
You have to send it to him directly I believe.
Clockwork Concierge
In private, please.
March 14, 2019 (Discord)
The Clockwork Concierge revealed that there is a connection between The Iron Hood and the money sink inside the shop.
This is unacceptable, I thought I gave clear instructions to Iron Hood.
Spiderbenb
So, The Clockwork Concierge is insinuating that he knows Iron Hood. Who else does he know about?
VeggieDelphine
Please tell us more Clockwork Concierge
Clockwork Concierge
Clueless as to what is about to happen, aren't we?
OHSHIET
Is Clockwork Concierge he or it?
Clockwork Concierge
You can refer to me however you choose, as long as you stay polite and pay due respect to the monocle.

But what are we to you ? Your staff ? Your customers ??

March 14, 2019 (Twitch)
The Shopkeeper visited Kammesennin's Twitch stream of The Messenger.
During Kammesennin's stream, Kammesennin read The Shopkeeper's "Current area" dialogue in Quillshroom Marsh. The actual Shopkeeper chimed in by posting a comment in Kammesennin's Twitch chat, where The Shopkeeper confirmed that the "I once had to look through the mud for an artifact" quote was a reference to the Magic Seashell.
LeShopkeeper
Anyone ever pick up on that Seashell reference?
The Shopkeeper went unnoticed in the Twitch chat until a bit later, around the time Kammesennin reached the Arcane Golem fight.
ZeoLive
Do we know who the first messenger was? Not like who the first Blue Robe is, but who the actual first Messenger is. As in an established character that is not currently part of the robes.
djfizzix
as far as I know, no
ZeoLive
Those robes don't have a messenger
spiderbenb
It was established in The Messenger Discord that Shopkeeper was first.
djfizzix
tellll meeeeeee
LeShopkeeper
Oh, hi.
The Shopkeeper also dropped a rumor about The Iron Hood and the money sink in the Twitch chat.
LeShopkeeper
Iron Hood, huh?
LeShopkeeper
Some say he hid in the sink...
During the cutscene that occurs after defeating Barma'thazël, where Ninja is a shopkeeper, Kammesennin asked out loud if The Shopkeeper had any stories to share, and The Shopkeeper responded with the following.
LeShopkeeper
Oh I did have a story but you darted straight to the boss.
Kammesennin offered to wait before progressing the story even further, but The Shopkeeper declined the offer.
LeShopkeeper
Hey, no problem. I moved on already.
After the "Ray Troid" joke that occurs between Ninja and Soldier in the game's dialogue, one of Kammesennin's Twitch stream viewers mentioned that they did not understand the joke.
djfizzix
i dont get that one tbh
ZeoLive
Met-Troid
djfizzix
OH

The Clockwork Concierge dropped a hint that The Archivist told the Concierge to guard an evil object inside of the Clockwork Castle. The Concierge then posted a message with important names censored, which was deleted by SaboTeam.
#dojo
Vascos
@ClockworkConcierge Hi
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Greetings, Vascos. It appears I am only able to speak in the general channel.
Soleil
The Archivist said to say "hi" a long time ago.
Clockwork Concierge
Is that so, Soleil? Quite unlike his character.
Soleil
Is he not very social?
Clockwork Concierge
If you ask me, he is mainly very busy and concerned. Even though I would never question The Archivist's wisdom, I sometimes wonder why he would have me set aside the thing I am guarding over at the Clockwork Castle.
Thierry
Yo Concierge, can you not?
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message]
Thierry
ok enough !
Thierry
time out for a few days
Thierry
jeez
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
alright, time for maintenance.
Paraphrasing of the deleted message:
Clockwork Concierge
"I wonder if it would censor me [******] disabled [*****'******]'s special power."
The first asterisk word was blue, like the name of a friendly character. The second word was red, like the name of something related to evil.
The first asterisk word was six letters long, and the second word had an apostrophe, according to Boo, a person who was able to memorize part of the message before it was deleted.
March 18, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge returned to the server to ask an important question about Colos and Suses.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Greetings! It appears Philip has seen fit to enable my speech again.
Clockwork Concierge
I must say I am quite delighted, there is a very important question I have been meaning to ask.
Clockwork Concierge
Colos or Suses?
VeggieDelphine
Depends on the context
VeggieDelphine
Do you want to know who we would save if they were both in danger ?
VeggieDelphine
Or who we think is stronger
Clockwork Concierge
I already know which one is strongest. I meant to inquire as to which of the two you prefer.
Soleil
Suses baked Kuni a cake, so I'm voting Suses.
Clockwork Concierge
A cake you say? Sounds like Suses has potential to be a caterer.
Clockwork Concierge
If you don't mind me asking, what positive traits do you see in Colos?
VeggieDelphine
Pecs
VeggieDelphine
Soleil
Fashionable necklace?
OHSHIET
He can run infinitely
Clockwork Concierge
So pecs are positive? My, every day I learn something new!
Kammesennin
He acknowledes and confirms his brother's observations, yet politely corrects him when he believes him to be mistaken. He is a good brother.
VeggieDelphine
Both are good brothers, are they not ?
Kammesennin
I didn't say Suses was not.
Kammesennin
We're just talking about Colos.
VeggieDelphine
Right ... but it's hard to say something that would make Colos better, since Suses probably has the same qualities
Clockwork Concierge
So, Colos can run infinitely, has a nice necklace, pecs, and is a good brother?
Clockwork Concierge
And how would you describe Suses?
VeggieDelphine
heather
suses is creative and bold
heather
and has nice eyes
heather
er
heather
eye
Soleil
He's very good at making cakes.
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message: :datbumbum:] [note: the message was plain text rather than properly displaying the emote]
Sage
He could survive planetary annihilation and abduction given how well he can work his towel
Soleil
Also I like how carefree he looks, even after death.
Clockwork Concierge
Thank you everyone, allow me to summarize.
Clockwork Concierge
So, Colos can run infinitely, has a nice necklace, pecs, and is a good brother.
Clockwork Concierge
Suses, on the hand, bakes good cakes, has a nice eye, could survive planetary annihilation, and is carefree after death.
Clockwork Concierge
So I ask you again, Colos or Suses?
Clockwork Concierge
*on the other hand
Clockwork Concierge
Thank you Philip, it appears I can self-corect now.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)

The Shopkeeper was summoned into the server by Doom Man's fake Shopkeeper dialogue box, and The Shopkeeper gave a sneak peek of the 16-bit Picnic Panic shop. Later, the Clockwork Concierge and Phil, the Clockwork Operator, discussed their plan to funnel Time Shards from the community in order to fund a Discord branch of the shop.
#ninja-village

The Shopkeeper
I'm sorry did you just impersonate me?

This is a fanart, careful lol
The Shopkeeper
Fanart?

Oh hey, It's Shopkeeper.
The Shopkeeper
More like BANart.
The Shopkeeper
Alright, I'll let this one slide.
dosboxfalco
Spiderbenb
Good joke, Last time i heard that one i fell off my dinosaur.
Doom Man
I will update my avatar but to be the prophet instead cause no one has been
OHSHIET
This makes you a false Shopkeeper
Doom Man
also that isn't the fan art you're thinking of. I made that fan made thing before the shopkeeper appeared
Spiderbenb
Nope, it's the real shopkeeper.
Doom Man
it looked way worse
OHSHIET
I know
Spiderbenb
My friend request to him is still pending.
OHSHIET
This fanart is really good btw
Spiderbenb
Anyway, Jokes aside. Any reason why you're here today Shopkeeper?
OHSHIET
Do you have any stories to share?
OHSHIET
Also he doesn't have the "Characters" role
The Shopkeeper
Just checking the place out, I'm almost done setting up shop on Voodkin Island, and looking for my next venture.
dosboxfalco
What's there to set up? You live in the Tower of Time...
OHSHIET
We are really looking forward to see that Picnic Panic styled Shop
Spiderbenb
Well, Clockwork Concierge is here. So you know it's pretty well made here now.
Doom Man
Will the shop be organized accordingly to fit the vacation?
OHSHIET
And we can use it for the wiki then instead of boss background
The Shopkeeper
Happy now, @OHSHIET ?
OHSHIET
dosboxfalco
Spiderbenb
Spiderbenb
So, can we expect a Shop here as well? OR in the very least a portal to your shop?
The Shopkeeper
Not too shabby, check out this selfie.
Doom Man
lovely
Spiderbenb
Looks pretty awesome so far
The Shopkeeper
I'm not clear on this yet, @Spiderbenb, but Concierge is trying hard to convince me. I guess we'll find out soon.
Spiderbenb
What do you suppose would thoroughly convince you to set up shop here?
The Shopkeeper
10 000 Time Shards should be enough. Take it up with the Concierge.
The Shopkeeper
Anyway, I should get back to it. See you in the tropics.
#general
Spiderbenb
So. Is the Clockwork Concierge able to give us any insight on how to get The shopkeeper here? Convsidering he wants 10 000 Time Shards.
Clockwork Concierge
Pardon?
Doom Man
Clockwork Concierge
Interesting, so you indeed would like to see the shop have a branch here?
Spiderbenb
It would be interesting nonetheless.
Doom Man
Why yes, we would.
Spiderbenb
Or in the very least a portal to the shop if setting up shop here proves to be a difficult task.
Clockwork Concierge
Fabulous! I will discuss this with Philip, clearly he doesn't have enough on his plate already.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
damn, this is a lot of pressure.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
I'll see what I can do.
Clockwork Concierge
Don't worry Philip, I only need you to connect the wires properly. The Time Shards will be gathered by the community.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Alright, let's get to work.
Doom Man
How I imagine Phil and the Concierge talking to each other
Clockwork Concierge
I am sadly unable to unsee this.

Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
soon™
Clockwork Concierge
Could you define soon™?
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Friday.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
now let me get back to work.
Clockwork Concierge
Fabulous! I shall prepare on my side too.
Spiderbenb
He says "Friday" but for all we know since "Time is Relative" it could've been one Friday last year.
VeggieDelphine
Maybe Friday is today
Spiderbenb

Maybe next Friday.

He didn't say which Friday.

Maybe Friday is Friday.

KuningasEST was streaming a speedrun of The Messenger at the time, and the Clockwork Concierge recommended others to watch it. Also later that day, the Clockwork Concierge referenced another video game.

If like me you do not have plans for lunch, you might want to come watch KuningasEST's run.
I'm going through my older SoundCloud playlist. I'm literally listening to a megalovania remix right now
Stéphanie
Is there a The Messenger megalo
Spiderbenb
Not that I'm aware of
Clappj
Someone should make that
Clappj
And use ruxxtin's theme as reference
Clockwork Concierge
Could anyone explain what a Megalo is? It appears I have much to learn still.
Clockwork Concierge
All my database refers to is a song from a quite unique game I played a little while ago.
Clappj
The Concierge is a gamer
Clappj
This has some serious implications
Clappj
If canon
Clockwork Concierge
Aren't we all, Clappj?
March 22, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge started keeping record of the amount of Time Shards the community had amassed. He also held a small quiz for bonus Time Shards.
Later that day, the Clockwork Concierge received a message from The Archivist to deliver to Phil. Thierry intercepted the message in stead of Phil, and per the Clockwork Concierge's request, Thierry closed down #the-void channel, since it was too expensive to maintain while The Archivist was away on a dangerous quest.
The Clockwork Concierge would go on to offer more bonus Time Shards, involving Pitou reactions. Then the Concierge wrote messages related to the Demon King that were swiftly deleted by SaboTeam.
#announcements
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Hey @everyone
The time has come to release the upgraded Clockwork Concierge!
It now supports numerous features from chapter 2 of the first tome of instructions , including :
> Welcoming all new users with a lengthy private message. > Disabling !commands in public channels. (Commands now only work in direct messages to the Concierge). > Allowing the use of ninja-only commands. > Interacting in all channels. > ..and numerous other under-the-hood upgrades.
But this is the boring stuff.
Now for the fun part. The Concierge came to an agreement with the Shopkeeper File:ShopkeeperEmote.png.
The Shopkeeper will open #the-shop channel, in exchange of 10000. It will allow the community to spend timeshards to buy both permanent and temporary perks for all members. Here's what you need to know (for now).
The community can now acquire timeshards tracked by the Conciege. Here's how: > A new user joins the server : +5 timeshards. > Reaching 1000public interactions in a day : +80 timeshards. > New Ninja gets the role : +120 timeshards. > The Concierge may sometimes give timeshards as bonus for outstanding interactions or contributions. > Numerous other ways to acquire shards will be added in the next versions...
Tracking progress: > All users can DM the !progress command to the Concierge to receive an update on the current progress.
Ninja nominations > Ninja role attribution is now limited to one new Ninja per day. > Nominations are now fully in the community's control. All Ninjas can nominate by send a DM to the Concierge with the command !nominate [username]. > Once a user has received 5 nominations within a single day, they are given the role and no more nominations can take place until the next day.
Daily objectives and tracking reset at midnight (EDT)

Philip, I have news from The Archivist.
Clockwork Concierge
He has left for a very dangerous quest and will not return for a while. I believe he located another one.
Clockwork Concierge
Please close The Void in the meantime. It won't be worth the upkeep costs until he returns.
Thierry
?
Thierry
How can we know we will be able to open it again?
Clockwork Concierge
The orders are clear, Thierry. Please advise.

Okay then. I'll take care of it Phil.

Clockwork Concierge, is it true that Manfred dropped a couple of plates because he didn't have hands?

Plates?

To celebrate Sabotage Studio's birthday, the Clockwork Concierge held a trivia quiz with 2,000 Time Shards as the prize.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Greetings, Messengers! It appears I am fully operational once again.
VeggieDelphine
Hello Clocko ! Must feel good to get your voice back !
OHSHIET
Clockwork Concierge
Why, it certainly does. Todays is a good day, especially since we are celebrating Sabotage turning 3 years old.
Clockwork Concierge
*today
Clockwork Concierge
Delighted to see my auto-correct functions are also back online.
Clockwork Concierge
To celebrate this day, I was granted permission to bestow 2000 bonus Time Shards should you answer 3 advanced trivia questions successfully.
Clockwork Concierge
Once you feel the required Messengers are available, call on me at your convenience.
Clockwork Concierge
There are 6 hours left. I have a lot to prepare for tonight's festivities, but you may DM my operator at any time to get my attention.
Damyon
I'll happily start answering, I love questionnaires like this
Clockwork Concierge
Do you now, Damyon?
VeggieDelphine
wait !
Damyon
Er- wait a sec
VeggieDelphine
can't we wait for Soleil, at least ?
Damyon
This isn't a one time thing, right?
VeggieDelphine
I think it is
Damyon
Oh, nevermind then
VeggieDelphine
and we will have to work together, probably
Damyon
I don't wanna waste this chance
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message] [note: most likely deleted due to a typo]
Clockwork Concierge
Now now, as stated earlier we will wait until you are all ready, but I believe Damyon can do a warm up round for 50 bonus Time Shards.
Damyon
Oh, just a warm up? That's fine
Clockwork Concierge
Ready, Damyon?
Damyon
Yes
Clockwork Concierge
Serendipitous! So tell me, Damyon, which very cute character's name is contained within the word 'serendipitous'?
Damyon
Hmm
Damyon
Pitou
Clockwork Concierge
We have a winner! That's 50 Time Shards, thank you for playing, Damyon.
My, another warm up round? Are you ready then, OHSHIET?
OHSHIET
Ok!
Clockwork Concierge
Delightful! OHSHIET, for 100 Time ShardsWhat is the requirement for aLeaf Monsterto come out of hiding?
OHSHIET
A full moon.
OHSHIET
(And maybe someone to trigger the Leaf Monster)
Clockwork Concierge
Indeed, the answer is a full moon. That's 100 Time Shards! Congratulations OHSHIET.

VeggieDelphine
So ... what do we do about that Clockwork Concierge's quizz ?
VeggieDelphine
He said we had 6 hours ... about 4 hours ago ?
Clockwork Concierge
I am ready when you are, though there is only an hour and a half left.
Spiderbenb
How tough are these questions anyways? What should we expect?
VeggieDelphine
The warm up was easy
VeggieDelphine
but it was a warm up
VeggieDelphine
we don't know
Clockwork Concierge
We are celebrating a birthday, I wouldn't stress too much over this.
Gooberbarbarian
So everybody's just waiting patiently
Spiderbenb
Yeah, I thought I'd kill time by trying to ask The Clockwork Concierge a question.
Spiderbenb
Technically it's about a Theory i have, But not one that you'd expect.
Clockwork Concierge
What is your question, Spiderbenb?
Spiderbenb
Should i be aware of any dangerous implications of opening a portal?
Clockwork Concierge
That would depend on the portal.
Doom Man
Can I ask something too sir
Spiderbenb
A Portal To The Void.
Clockwork Concierge
Go for it Doom Man, I shall only be vague if you are.
Spiderbenb
As bad as that sounds, I'm vastly curious on the area itself in hopes of learning more about it.
Doom Man
Alrighty so we know that you know a few things about the shopkeeper and the shop itself. Do you know the person who the shopkeeper got its music from?
Soleil
He got his music from Rainbowdragoneyes, right?
Doom Man
I just want to be sure if there's more behind that
OHSHIET
Clocko can we now begin our quiz? Soleils here
Clockwork Concierge
My knowledge of The Void is sadly very limited, Spiderbenb. While the kids who reconfigured my circuits were attuned to Time Magic, its effects remain lost on me.
Thierry
Easy, Concierge.
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message] [note: most likely deleted due to a typo]
Clockwork Concierge
Oh yes, the festivities! There is so much to do...
Clockwork Concierge
Are we ready for a little quizz, then? There are 2000 Time Shards on the line!
Clockwork Concierge
Please take 5 minutes to determine who will be responsible for providing final answers. Any Ninja will do.
VeggieDelphine
Soleil ?
Gooberbarbarian
Ya
DavidOnze
ya
Doom Man
We're all gonna choose soleil really
MFC
Soleil if she's online
Sage
ya
Doom Man
And I think if by chance soleil doesn't know something, then we can try our own answers
OHSHIET
Thierry
OHSHIET
Choose Thierry he knows the answers
OHSHIET
Yo @Thiеrry do you want to test your skills in The Messenger lore?
Clockwork Concierge
Discussion is very much allowed for every question. I am simply looking for an official representative to provide final answers.
Clappj
Soleil
Ashes
Soleil
Clockwork Concierge
Do you accept, Soleil?
Soleil
Sure.
Clockwork Concierge
IT'S SHOWTIME !!!
Clockwork Concierge
Excuse me, I get very excited about quizzes....
Clockwork Concierge
Using the best of five model, you must obtain 3 right answers before obtaining 3 wrong answers.
Clockwork Concierge
Question 1, true or false Sabotage was founded in April 2016.
OHSHIET
3 years. Looks obvious.
VeggieDelphine
True !
DavidOnze
true
Soleil
Should I say it now?
VeggieDelphine
Yes
VeggieDelphine
True
DavidOnze
yes
Soleil
Answer: True
Clockwork Concierge
That answer is...
Clockwork Concierge
CORRECT
[lots of celebrating from the community]
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message: Question 2, true or false Colos]
[lots of confusion from the community]
Clockwork Concierge
Question 2, true or false Colos and Suses are cousins.
Gooberbarbarian
False
Gooberbarbarian
Dumb brothers
Soleil
The narrator mentions they are brothers and also their Steam card.
OHSHIET
The previous question was more interesting
Kammesennin
I'm confident that Soleil has this.
DavidOnze
false
MFC
false
DavidOnze
they are bruddas
Soleil
Answer: False
Clockwork Concierge
That answer is...
Clockwork Concierge
CORRECT
[lots of celebrating from the community]
Clockwork Concierge
Question 3, written answer. The Archivist first needed everyone to witness Ninja's story to provide a sense of the future that needs saving, but mainly because he encountered something extremely relevant to Book 2. What is it?
[7 minutes of fruitless discussion]
Clockwork Concierge
Shall I start a timer?
Gooberbarbarian
No
MFC
oh no
VeggieDelphine
No, we prefer no timer
DavidOnze
OH NO
Gooberbarbarian
Not required
Clockwork Concierge
Final answer due in 2 minutes.
[1 minute of panicked discussion]
Clockwork Concierge
Final answer due in 1 minute.
Soleil
Answer: Demon King
Clockwork Concierge
That answer is...
Clockwork Concierge
INCORRECT
[many upset reactions from the community]
Clockwork Concierge
Do you want me to stop the quizz? I only mean to have fun on this day of celebration!
[a chorus of "no"s]
Clockwork Concierge
Fabulous, let's move on then!
Clockwork Concierge
Question 4, written answer. What is the Clockwork Castle keeping out of reach of the Demons?
Soleil
Related?
VeggieDelphine
ohhhh
Gooberbarbarian
Ooh
MFC
i think it is
VeggieDelphine
probably YES
Kammesennin
Definitely seems related
Doom Man
Maybe remnants are like the remaining demons
Gooberbarbarian
They are guarding the remnants
Kammesennin
But we don't know what they are remnants of.
VeggieDelphine
remnants of the true demon king ???
Spiderbenb
Just go with Remnants maybe?
MFC
Just Remnants is a safe choice
Gooberbarbarian
Go with Remnants
VeggieDelphine
Is it precise enough ?
Clockwork Concierge
I require a specific answer.
Soleil
Answer: Remnants
Clockwork Concierge
Please elaborate. Remnants of what?
Gooberbarbarian
Remnants of the demon king?
Gooberbarbarian
Remnants of the blue robes?
Boud
Remnants of something evil
Boud
but what?
FrankyDess
Remanants of somethint the archivist did that summoned the demon in the first place
Doom Man
Remnants of the demon king feels like the closest thing
Stéphanie
I'd guess remnants of the blue robes that couldn't escape the Tower when and File:ShopkeeperEmote.png did
Soleil
I'll go with what Doom Man said unless anyone disagrees.
VeggieDelphine
I agree
Boud
Maybe the Archivist shatterred the Demon King
FrankyDess
I agre
MFC
I agree
Stéphanie
Oooh
Gooberbarbarian
DavidOnze
agree
Stéphanie
And it's chasing him
Stéphanie
Yes
Boud
wich in turn spread across alternate universes
Stéphanie
Remnants of the King
Soleil
Answer: Remnants of the Demon King
Clockwork Concierge
That answer is...
Clockwork Concierge
CORRECT!!! Congratulations Messengers, you have earned 2000 Time Shards!!!
[lots and lots of celebrating from the community]
Stéphanie
I need to see what the other questions were
FrankyDess
Well isnt there another question for more birthday fun?
FrankyDess
Before the festivities?
Doom Man
Yeah I want question 5
Doom Man
I don't wanna feel like we missed out
Babushka
yeah let us see the question 5
DavidOnze
question 5: colos 2
Kammesennin
Yeah! Can we have the fifth question even if there's no bonus?
MFC
Gimme question 5
Clockwork Concierge
Question 5 wasn't fair, I suggest we let it rest.
[lots of disappointed responses, and bargaining, from the community]
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message: Question 5, in tile units. If tree was as high as 3 Leaf Monsters divided by 1 half Ruxxtin, what would it's height be after multiplying it by 5?]
Clockwork Concierge
Question 5, in tile units. If a tree was as high as 3 Leaf Monsters divided by 1 half Ruxxtin, what would it's height be after multiplying it by 5?
Doom Man
Half a ruxxtin Does that mean himself or including the staff in the sprite
Clockwork Concierge
Head to toe, no stilts no staff.
[14 minutes of math discussion]
Clockwork Concierge
If a tree was as high as 3 Leaf Monsters divided by 1 half Ruxxtin, what would it's height be after multiplying it by 5?
Stéphanie
Kammesennin
64.86486486486486
Clockwork Concierge
64.86 IS CORRECT !!! Congratuations!
[lots of celebrating from the community]
Clockwork Concierge
I am late for the festivities, so let's do a quick pitou bonus round. For the next 2 minutes, all pitou reacts on this post are worth 2 Time Shards!!!
: 16
Clockwork Concierge
Scroll up for more pitous! One minute left!
Clockwork Concierge
16 pitous! That's 32 Time Shards. Thank you all for playing, and Happy Birthday, SaboTeam!

The Shopkeeper popped by to give a sneak peek of the upcoming Discord branch of the shop.
#general
The Shopkeeper
So, I'm all set and the talent tree is up, how's the time shard count, @Clockwork Concierge ?
Spiderbenb
Concierge is under maintenance right now
The Shopkeeper
Still under maintenance, huh?
The Shopkeeper
Oh well, I supposed you're all still short on shards.
The Shopkeeper
Next week, then?
Gooberbarbarian
Sure
The Shopkeeper
You do understand how things are going to play out, right?
The Shopkeeper
One of you will get the role, and thus a private audience.
The Shopkeeper
First upgrade, as always, will be on the house.
The Shopkeeper
I must confess I have my own guess on which you will pick first...
Gooberbarbarian
Gooberbarbarian
;)
Soleil
Wow Goober is so lucky.
The Shopkeeper
Come on Soleil, I once changed my profile pic just for you -_-'
Soleil
Soleil
Thanks again btw, very Christmas-y outfit
The Shopkeeper
Oh you can buy all sorts of things in my shop. Whether the community's will is considered and/or followed will be up to whoever is The Messenger.
The Shopkeeper
I guess a little spoiler is in order.
Dime
I also hear there's a clog down the sink
The Shopkeeper
Oh the Money Sink?
The Shopkeeper
There's no unclogging it.
The Shopkeeper
I mean...
The Shopkeeper
Unless you had a Money Wrench....
The Shopkeeper
But let's get back to the subject at hand.
The Shopkeeper
I look forward to seeing how you choose to prioritize the uprades to this place.
The Shopkeeper
Let me just hide the bulk of the talent tree aaaand......
Dime
Also, stories?
The Shopkeeper
Here.
Spiderbenb
If we cant get stories, then is it really a shop?
The Shopkeeper
@Dime, I don't deal with rethorical questions.
The Shopkeeper
You will get what you pay for.
The Shopkeeper
See you at the 10 thousand mark.
April 15, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge announced that he was seeking a couple of more moderators. Later, The Shopkeeper dropped by and mentioned a lore tidbit about Monk and Quillble. However, the messages were swiftly deleted by SaboTeam. The Shopkeeper went on to chat about various things with the community.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Hello Messengers! I hope this day is treating you well. Did you know that since I was recruited this community has nearly doubled already? What a time to be a concierge.
Clockwork Concierge
While I love my duties here, tending to the Clockwork Castle is still very time-consuming. As such, I would be delighted to receive additional help from the most motivated among you.
Clockwork Concierge
More earnestly put, I am looking for two more Moderators.
Clockwork Concierge
If you are serious and interested in taking on a long term Moderator role, please send my assistant Phil a direct message with your timezone, mastered languages and weekly availabilities.
Clockwork Concierge
We will then consult and determine the two who are the best fit to make sure this place lives up to its potential.
Clockwork Concierge
Here are 100 Time Shards for your attention. Thank you for spreading the word!
Clockwork Concierge
Oh, and don't bother asking Kamesennin for interview tips, our contract is VERY STRICT. Right, Kamme?
Kammesennin
Y-yes! gulps
#ninja-village
Doom Man
Quarble helping in fighting would be interesting Too bad in boss fights he just gets scared
The Shopkeeper
[deleted message: Greed Demons fighting alongside their Messenger?]
The Shopkeeper
[deleted message: (paraphrasing) "I said no more spoilers about the Monk"]
Doom Man
I thought shopkeep was gonna make a silly joke so I wasn't ready
Doom Man
Also someone should count the amount of times a character "accidentally" spoils us
The Shopkeeper
How about counting the amount of times Doom Man enjoys the ride?
Gooberbarbarian
How are you doing Shoppy
VeggieDelphine
Hey Shopkeeper how are you ?
Kammesennin
It has happened 22 times.
Babushka
Hi Shoppy
VeggieDelphine
Are you annoyed by us always staring in the unopened shop ?
The Shopkeeper
I'm good. All done setting up shop in the tropics, and waiting on these 10 000 shards.
Kammesennin
@The Shopkeeper Do you have any stories to share?
VeggieDelphine
You could make a discount
VeggieDelphine
Why do you need exactly 10,000?
The Shopkeeper
Of course I do Kamme, does this look like Rivière Turquoise to you?
VeggieDelphine
Are you in trouble with money?
Kammesennin
No, I suppose it doesn't.
The Shopkeeper
Money?
Gooberbarbarian
Doom Man
cough shards
The Shopkeeper
Oh, I never keep any shards, I consume them to do my thing.
The Shopkeeper
In this case, opening up shop here.
VeggieDelphine
Oh I see
VeggieDelphine
Oh right you need it for the magic
VeggieDelphine
Hey Shopkeeper do you personally know pitou ?
VeggieDelphine
Gooberbarbarian
DreamHazard
The Shopkeeper
I do.
VeggieDelphine
Is he a good boy ?
Kammesennin
Can you please share a story with us before you go? It's been a while since we had one, and we really enjoy them.
The Shopkeeper
Pitou is the best boy.
The Shopkeeper
Stories will have to wait, @Kammesennin, one shouldn't open their presents before x-mas.
The Shopkeeper
I do have a few good one in stores though.
Kammesennin
Fair enough. There's a moral in your short sentence there and that will tide me over. Thank you.
The Shopkeeper
But sadly, the cabinet is lost.
Soleil
DreamHazard
Shopkeeper, may I respectfully ask your pronouns? As a trans woman I feel it's especially important to pay attention to these things
The Shopkeeper
An unacceptable time anomly, @Soleil. Please don't make too much of it.
VeggieDelphine
Good question !!
Soleil
Okay.
VeggieDelphine
I’d love to know your pronouns as well
The Shopkeeper
Ah, Messenger @DreamHazard, I suppose I should thank you for all the support!
The Shopkeeper
When it comes to my identity, I prefer to remain anonymous, you can refer to me in any way you please.
The Shopkeeper
I must go for now. Should the opportunity arise, please say hi to Rock Lesieur for me, his dedication is highly underrated.
The Shopkeeper
Godspeed!
April 19, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge delivered a message from The Archivist.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Good day Messengers! It seems The Shop will be opening soon.
Clockwork Concierge
I must say, for once we are thoroughly prepared.
Clockwork Concierge
As some of you have surmized, everything that happens here is directed in accordance to The Archivist's big picture plan.
Clockwork Concierge
During our discussion to determine who has been chosen to join the Moderators team at the Clockwork Castle, he also demanded that I share a message with all of you.
Clockwork Concierge
The Archivist says-
'Given our past struggles, I was pleased to witness everyone come together and choose to forgo the short-term gain of daily nominations in an effort to ensure all new Ninjas are worthy of the title.'
Clockwork Concierge
The Archivist says-
'This should not go unrewarded. On that, I defer to you, Concierge.'
Clockwork Concierge
The Archivist says-
'I am currently considering someone who shows potential to be the first Voidwalker. In the meantime, please send everyone my regards.'
Clockwork Concierge
My, is it good to hear from him! For this exemplary show of team spirit, I am hereby granting you 250 bonus Time Shards!
Clockwork Concierge
Have a great week-end, everyone.
Babushka
I think Soleil will be defo the one who gets the Voidwalker role but I have other people in mind that wouldn't surprise me!
Ashes
i was thinking between Soleil, Kamme, and Spider we'd have solid contenders for the Voidwalker role
MFC
Same
DavidOnze
same, these three guys deserve it
MFC
Or even ohshiet and bab
DavidOnze
or babushka too, but I don't know if her have time to spend on this
Babushka
Yeah I was thinking about Kamme and Spider too
Babushka
But me? Thank you for the nice words but I'm not sure if timezones would let me take part of the events
Babushka
That would be a big responsibility. I think I could pull it off at the end
Clockwork Concierge
On that, Babushka, one of the biggest sacrifices we should thank our Moderators for, is that they forfeit their chance to partake in special events reserved to ninjas.
Clockwork Concierge
Should we give thanks our Mods, then? ❤
[many "thank you"s were said to the moderator team by the community]
Spiderbenb
So, how goes the new mod nominations? Any update on that front?
Clockwork Concierge
We have come to an agreement and will make announcements next week.
Clockwork Concierge
Today is a big day for SabotTeam and we don't mean to steal the spotlight. Thierry will be in touch.
Thierry
Thierry
Let us work @Clockwork Concierge lol
Kammesennin
Thanks SaboTeam for making the game and the server so we could all be here to share this experience!
Spiderbenb
Speaking of The Concierge, we never really get a chance to ask this, But How are you doing lately Concierge?
Clockwork Concierge
Thank you for asking, Spiderbenb. From what I understand of the human experience, the way Philip keeps tinkering with me I now feel the clockwork equivalent of coming back from the dentist.
Clockwork Concierge
But I am well, dedication and purpose go a long way.

The community was 75 Time Shards short of being able to afford the shop, but the Clockwork Concierge provided assistance.
#general
Kammesennin
There are way more important things at hand such as discussing the potential existence of legs for an additional 75
Clockwork Concierge
75 Time Shards, huh?
Clockwork Concierge
That would certainly give Phil a bit of stress!
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message] [note: most likely deleted due to a typo]
starryeyedninja
I SAW THAT
Stéphanie
I saw that!
Clockwork Concierge
It seems we are closing in on the shop's grand opening a little ahead of schedule.
VeggieDelphine
Saw what ???
Stéphanie
The same message
VeggieDelphine
Ok
Stéphanie
Don't worry
Clockwork Concierge
It's fine, my dear adventurers. I am not so used to correcting my own typos either.
Doom Man
so is the shop going to get delayed despite having 10000 shards is what the concierge is saying? if so can we know why?
Ashes
I don’t think the shop is being delayed? I’m not sure
Clockwork Concierge
Delaying the shop? Why exactly would we do such a thing?
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Opening a shop is a lot more work than it looks. But we will be fine. If we don't start randomly awarding 75 shards that is.
Clockwork Concierge
...
Clockwork Concierge
I didn't mean to do it randomly, Phil. But I see no reason to award 75 Time Shards at the moment. I mean, it's not like the people here can name three characters from The Messenger who technically don't have legs.
VeggieDelphine
Abomination
Babushka
Concierge
Babushka
Manfred
Doom Man
we never see the blue robes' legs
Stéphanie
Emerald Golem

Abomination technically has legs, and lots of them.

Gooberbarbarian
Clocko just had a propellor
GeoffChisnall
Butterfly Matriarch possibly too
Clockwork Concierge
My, does anyone even HAVE legs in this little world?
Babushka
Ninja has at least two
Doom Man
matriarch has legs I think
Gooberbarbarian
has 4
VeggieDelphine
Barma
Clockwork Concierge
Your answers are both overkill and acceptable. Here are 75 Time Shards for you. Phil, I will go make some coffee...
April 25, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge arrived on scene to celebrate the community finally gathering 10,000 total Time Shards to open up #the-shop. When he began speaking, he had difficulty turning on his microphone (dialogue boxes). He then threw the Time Shards into a converter.
After converting all 10,000 Time Shards, #the-shop text channel opened. Nobody could post in the channel, except for The Shopkeeper himself, and a single lucky member who was temporarily granted the Discord role, "The Messenger."
#general
Clockwork Concierge
My, it has happened!
Clockwork Concierge
What is wrong Philip? It seems my microphone is not working properly!
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Let me look at the cables.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Does it work now?
Clockwork Concierge
Mike check!
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Wrong one.
Clockwork Concierge
Oh, the embarrassment...
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
What about now?
Clockwork Concierge
MIKE CHECK
Clockwork Concierge
Much better! Thank you, Philip.
Clockwork Concierge
I should congratulate you, Messengers! Today marks a very important event.
Clockwork Concierge
Now, if I can just grab the pile of Time Shards here...
Clockwork Concierge
And done. You now have 3 Time Shards left.
Clockwork Concierge
Now to hope everything goes smoothly, please stand by as I throw them in the converter.
Clockwork Concierge
5 Time Shards processed...

Philip, at this rate the shop will open after the release of the DLC. Can we speed things up?
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
Let me try some buttons.
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
What about the yellow one?
Clockwork Concierge
The converter stopped...
Clockwork Concierge
What's that noise, Philip?
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)
I wish I knew.
Clockwork Concierge
Oh no, it's.... IT'S.... PHILIP DO SOMETHING!!!
Phil (Rookie Clockwork Operator)

#the-shop
The Shopkeeper
@everyone My, you all took your sweet time, didn't you?
The Shopkeeper
Alright, let's get this show on the road...
The Shopkeeper
My shop, my rules. I will be seeing Messengers one at a time, and allow them to perform three actions before moving on.
The Shopkeeper
Today, I have time for 2 Messengers.
The Shopkeeper
Even though I highly suspect you will, I strongly suggest that you do not waste any actions.
The Shopkeeper
I am now ready to welcome the first Messenger of this new venture. As The Prophet would say : WHOMST SHALL IT BE?
The Shopkeeper
...is he ever annoying...
The Shopkeeper
Anyway, send me a DM if you are interested and I will pick someone over the next 60 seconds, starting now!
The Shopkeeper
RIP my inbox. Please press F at your earliest convenience...
The Shopkeeper
A Messenger has been chosen!
The Shopkeeper
Welcome to the shop, Damyon, please make good use of your actions today. You have 3 left.
The Shopkeeper
What will your first action be? You can either choose to chat or unlock the talent tree.
I will let everyone browse for a few moments. Don't forget, it's better with music!
Damyon
Ooh! Interesting
The Shopkeeper
Careful Damyon, that would technically be an action, but I will let it slide.
The Shopkeeper
Now, you have 2 actions left. We can either chat, or you can ask for details about the upgrade of your choice.
The Shopkeeper
What will it be, Messenger?
Damyon
I'd like to ask about the orb upgrade
The Shopkeeper
As the description states, buying this upgrade will add the #scrying-orb channel to the Discord.
The Shopkeeper
(That was a quick head-up for those on mobile)
The Shopkeeper
Now for the specifics.
The Shopkeeper
Every now and then, strange manifestations will occur within the Orb, prompting an opportunity to spend a few Time Shards to make the vision concrete.
The Shopkeeper
It will provide advanced spoilers.
The Shopkeeper
And I do mean advanced.
The Shopkeeper
There is a downside to Scrying Magic however. If, for any reason, anything seen within the Orb is copied, shown, leaked, or shared anywhere (other channels here included), the Orb will shatter forever.
The Shopkeeper
As long as its secrets are kept safe, it will provide visions for a price.
The Shopkeeper
You have one action left. We can either chat, or you can ask about a specific upgrade.
The Shopkeeper
Oh, hold up.
The Shopkeeper
I can also show you something cool.
The Shopkeeper
So which will it be, Damyon?
Damyon
I'd like to see something cool
The Shopkeeper
Good call.
The Shopkeeper
Press F5 in the talent tree's page now!
The Shopkeeper
Thanks for stopping by, Damyon!
The Shopkeeper
Now, who's next? Time to survive a second trip to the inbox...
The Shopkeeper
Step forward, GaidenGravity!
GaidenGravity
Let's chat!
The Shopkeeper
That was fast!
The Shopkeeper
Alright, what do you want to chat about? We can either talk about the upgrade prices, gossip, or ask me anything though I may not provide a satisfying answer.
GaidenGravity
Gossip
The Shopkeeper
Gossip it is!
The Shopkeeper
So, you know how The Prophet is always big and in character, making everything epic, right?
The Shopkeeper
Let me tell you how it all started for him.
The Shopkeeper
He was playing D&D with his friends one night, and mid-game was visited by the Western Hero.
The Shopkeeper
He carried the scroll, crossed the island, and became a blue robe.
The Shopkeeper
And to this day he still thinks it's all part of an epic D&D night!
The Shopkeeper
Alright, GaidenGravity, you have 2 actions left.
The Shopkeeper
We can either chat, or you can ask about a specific upgrade.
GaidenGravity
What's your favorite story out of all the ones you've told?
The Shopkeeper
...
The Shopkeeper
The boy in the well
The Shopkeeper
Alright, GaidenGravity. Final action : we can either talk about the upgrade prices being too damn high or you can leave.
GaidenGravity
lets talk about the upgrade prices being too damn high
The Shopkeeper
Amazing! I'm used to pre-scripted interactions you see, and thought I could easily bait you into GETTING A FIRST FREE UPGRADE ON THE HOUSE AS IS SHOPKEEPER'S TRADITION.
The Shopkeeper
Now if we can all pretend that played out in a surprising and organic way, I will now give you 5000 TIME SHARDS
The Shopkeeper
Or you can leave...
The Shopkeeper
So GaidenGravity, what will it be? Do you want to leave or get 5000 Time Shards?
GaidenGravity
Get 5000 Time Shards!
The Shopkeeper
Played right into my hand! I'm so getting this raise...
The Shopkeeper
@Clockwork Concierge, if you'd be so kind...
The Shopkeeper
Great.
The Shopkeeper
It's your call, Messenger. Do you want to buy an upgrade today, and if so, which?
GaidenGravity
I will buy the Colos or Suses event!
The Shopkeeper
We have a deal!
The Shopkeeper
Thank you for visiting the shop today, I will be back when the timing feels right.
The Shopkeeper
GODSPEED, MESSENGERS
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Congratulations, everyone.
Clockwork Concierge
And remember, no matter what happens past this point, all of that happened, and that is something to be celebrated!
Clockwork Concierge
As if my plate wasn't full already, is seems I will be in charge of the Colos or Suses event. More on this tomorrow.
heather
but i work tomorrow :(
heather
can you put it off till monday @Clockwork Concierge ?
Clockwork Concierge
The event starts tomorrow and will last for a little while, Heather. Everyone will be able to participate at their convenience.
April 26, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge began the "Colos or Suses event," and the Concierge referenced a popular typo he made during the quiz from April 4, 2019. Community members PM'd the Clockwork Concierge if they wanted to join Team Colos or Team Suses along with a supporting argument for their team, and they would be assigned a corresponding "Team Colos" or "Team Suses" Discord role. The team they joined was displayed in the new event text channel, #colos-or-suses. Also later that day, the Clockwork Castle was threatened by the Demon General, which prompted the Clockwork Concierge to recruit a couple of moderators earlier than scheduled.
#general
Rick ム
Hey Hey, can I ask one question to Sobotage?
Clockwork Concierge
That depends, is it a good one? If so I will relay it.
Rick ム
You're a nice bot!
Clockwork Concierge
That's not a question.
Clockwork Concierge
Or should I say, there's no question about that?
Rick ム
How many copies of The Messenger you've sold across any platform?
Stéphanie
(Not enough)
Rick ム
noooo
Thierry
Yo Rick that's a tough one!
Thierry
The gist of it is we sold enough to be good for a few months and we decided to use that to work on free DLC to thank people who encouraged us
Thierry
As for the future the challenge in finding the means to bring our ideas to life is still present but we're hopeful
Rick ム
That's fine!
#general
Clockwork Concierge
My, it will soon be time for the Colos or Suses event kick-off! Stay tuned, Messengers.
Clockwork Concierge
That tickles, Philip!
Clockwork Concierge
Oh, apologies, Messengers...
Clockwork Concierge
It appears the necessary hardware for the Colos or Suses event is currently being installed!
Clockwork Concierge
How exciting! Our first event!!
Clockwork Concierge
Ok now it hurts, Philip.
Clockwork Concierge
Was it... are you done?
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
Yes.
Clockwork Concierge
Thank you, Philip!
Clockwork Concierge
Alas, Messengers, the time has come to answer the most difficult question of all time.
Clockwork Concierge
True or False Colos
Clockwork Concierge
...
Clockwork Concierge
Now, for the real thing, the one question that has been on everyone's mind forever!
Clockwork Concierge
Colos? Or Suses?
Clockwork Concierge
The community will decide! My new module is now online. Send me a DM with the !event command at your earliest convenience to CHOOSE YOUR CAMP!
The event has started!
Babushka
how am I supposed to choose between 2 best boys
Clockwork Concierge
Babushka, we all know the best boy is Pitou. You are not obligated to vote, but I hope you will.
Clockwork Concierge
I am much pleased with the participation so far! I will be gathering votes for the next week. Be sure to tell everyone to participate.
Boog2TheMan
how do you vote for which team?
Solaris Knight
DM the concierge with !events

Clockwork Concierge

THE SEALS OF THE CLOCKWORK CASTLE HAVE WEAKENED
Clockwork Concierge
ALERT! ALERT! THE DEMON GENERAL FOUND THE DEMON KING'S PRISON

ADDITIONAL SUPPORT REQUIRED IMMEDIATELY

Clockwork Concierge
I was not entirely done reviewing candidates. But time is of the essence it seems!
Clockwork Concierge
Messenger Boo.
Boo
Yes?
Boo
Hi!
Clockwork Concierge
For you positive attitude and constant contributions to this community, I would welcome you as a Moderator. Do you accept?
Boo
Why, of course!
Boo
Also you typo'ed that but I love you regardless
Clockwork Concierge
Beautiful! Please join me in the Clockwork Castle now for briefing.

Clockwork Concierge
Messenger Aevoa.
Aevoa
Clockwork Concierge
Ah yes, ever the silent one. I have considered your application, and while you are not the most vocal here, I believe you have what it takes to act decisively when the situation requires it.
Clockwork Concierge
I would have you as another new Moderator. Do you accept?
Aevoa
I accept!
Clockwork Concierge
Beautiful! Step forward Aevoa, and join me in the Clockwork Castle for your briefing!
Clockwork Concierge
THREAT CONTAINED. ALL SYSTEMS STABLE.

Clockwork Concierge
My, what a day! Let us celebrate our new Mods, everyone, and enjoy our first event!
Lich
I still don't get the point of event
Lich
I voted Suses and...
Clockwork Concierge
The point of the event, Messenger Lich, is to arrive to a decisive conclusion when it comes to the cyclops.
Lich
so... we have to choose main cyclope?
Lich
ok
Clockwork Concierge
I will be gathering the communities reasons to vote for one or the other for the next week, and we will then be in Phase 2 of the event where these reasons will be pitted against each other until one of the two brothers is the definitive winner.
Lich
how many people made meme reasons?
MFC
Oh no
PhΩmega
Soleil
MFC
My reason is just a joke
MFC
we lost guys
GaidenGravity
mine's a meme but also
Boo
Mine is epic and perfect
Boo
(and also kinda meme)
Stéphanie
Mine is logic
Kammesennin
Mine is memey but accurate still
Babushka
My reason was:
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message: As many as the amount who cared to meme. We shall have see in due time, but I hope the answer is that all of you did. I love me a good meme Colos]
Clockwork Concierge
As many as the amount who cared to meme. We shall see in due time, but I hope the answer is that all of you did. I love me a good meme Colos
Clockwork Concierge
So many typos, it appears I am still shaking from all the stress and excitement. I will now go rest for a while.
April 30, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge dropped by to talk about the "Colos or Suses event."
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Good day Messengers!
I should let you know that I am quite excited to see how many of you decided to participate in the Colos or Suses event.
Clockwork Concierge
This is a friendly reminder that voting closes this Friday. Golly, I am already excited for Phase 2!
Tell newcomers, and tell your friends! The more the merrier!
Babushka
Does Clocko know I love and appreciate him
Clockwork Concierge
You know I do, Babushka.
Shuu
Curious how things kind of work, I see there is some sort of meta game, but how can I participate?
Gooberbarbarian
Well,
Gooberbarbarian
Firstly there is the #ninja-village that can be talked in by ninjas, who are elected by the surrent ninjas for being active, participating in the community, making fanart, speed running, etc.
Gooberbarbarian
Secondly, there are several characters from in the game (some being minor spoilers) that talk within the Discord, establish events, etc.
Gooberbarbarian
Currently we are in a #colos-or-suses event where people choose if they prefer one over the other. This was given to us after we collected time shards as a community, which can still be collected, and then we spent them on this event in #the-shop
They're called Timeshards, it's The Messenger in-game currency.
Shuu
Thank you. :)
Shuu
I'm going to purchase the game to check things out.
Shuu
Another question - what do the sub names of people mean, like "The Guardian, The Scavenger, etc"
Shuu
And why do some people have a Panda emoji in their nickname?
Babushka
oh... panda is a meme here
Clockwork Concierge
This place can get pretty meme-intensive.
May 3, 2019
Phase 1 of the "Colos or Suses event" ended. The Clockwork Concierge generously bestowed a large number of Time Shards to the community and spoke of a mysterious shop upgrade called "the letter H."
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Attention all Messengers!
Clockwork Concierge
Phase 1 of the Colos or Suses event is almost over. If you haven't voted yet, note that there are only 2 hours remaining.
Tell your fellow adventurers, voting is closing soon!
Clockwork Concierge
I will then parse all your reasons through my integrated NSFW filter, and if there are any left, we will begin Phase 2 on Monday!
Clockwork Concierge
For what it's worth, I consider Suses' loin cloth attack to be SFW.
And quite hilarious, too.
[2 hours later]
Clockwork Concierge
Phase 1 of the Colos or Suses event is now officially over!
See you all on Monday

Clockwork Concierge
My, Kamme, are we that close to a thousand already?
Kammesennin
Indeed we are
Kammesennin
We've made such incredible progress, wouldn't you agree?
Clockwork Concierge
It would be quite exciting to reach it soon, especially since I am only allowed to give bonus Time Shards on Fridays!
Kammesennin
Yeah, I sure hope we manage to hit the number soon here
Clockwork Concierge
A thousand members, a thousand shards! You have 2 hours.
[2 hours later]
Clockwork Concierge
I'm impressed.
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
This looks like the moment when the Concierge gets in Friday mode and adds multiple milestones in my next week planning.
Clockwork Concierge
Mike check
Soleil
@A Wild Mike
Clockwork Concierge
Mic check?
Soleil
Oh
Soleil
Carry on then.
Clockwork Concierge
Splendid! It appears we have reached a thousand members.
Clockwork Concierge
Apologies, I just woke up from maintenance.
Philip is it Friday still?
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
Looks like it, yes.
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
Clockwork Concierge
Unprecedented!
Clockwork Concierge
Very well then. I shall award you a thousand Time Shards to celebrate!
Clockwork Concierge
Oh, and two more things!
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
oh not again.
Clockwork Concierge
First, I will ask The Shopkeeper to add the letter H to the shop. I believe it will come in handy later.
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
Clockwork Concierge
And lastly, if you could direct your attention to the fanart channel, you will notice the high quality content we saw this week.
Clockwork Concierge
We don't know yet who between the two brothers' job it will be in the end to award shards for outstanding community contributions, but in the meantime...
Clockwork Concierge
I am awarding you a bonus 500 Time Shards!
Clockwork Concierge
Thank you everyone, have a great week-end!
Thierry
Yo Concierge stop messing with our balancing
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
yeah
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
this is getting heavy.
Thierry
...
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
I'm still completely confused by the Jukebox arcane wiring and you keep adding timeshards.
Clockwork Concierge
Apologies to Saboteam, but to quote RDE, the fanart is 'sick and tight'.
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
yeah sure RDE.
May 6, 2019
The Clockwork Concierge examined the supporting arguments for Team Colos and Team Suses that would be used for Phase 2 of the "Colos or Suses event." He was also unable to perform an ASCII shrug using a dialogue box, so he wrote one with plain text.
While Boo talked about his guitar stream of The Messenger, it segued into Clockwork Concierge referencing "the kids" who built him, but the message was deleted by SaboTeam. The Clockwork Concierge became sad and was comforted by the community.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
Parses pro-Colos arguments. 'Well this is much softer than I expected.'
Clockwork Concierge
Opens pro-Suses folder...
o_o
Stéphanie
Oh hi Concierge!
Clockwork Concierge
Good day, Stéphanie!
Clockwork Concierge
Counting is done.
The community has submitted 30 pro-Colos and 36 pro-Suses arguments!
Clockwork Concierge
Now, this doesn't mean we have a winner just yet!
I will now remove 6 pro-Suses arguments, and we will be ready for Phase2!
Clockwork Concierge
Colos, or Suses? YOU will decide by voting as we pit arguments against each other one by one over the course of this week!
Be sure to tune in tomorrow.
Babushka
I wonder if Clocko will also include the authors of each argument
Clockwork Concierge
\_□_/
Clockwork Concierge
My, that ASCII shrug came out poorly.
Clockwork Concierge
I might, Babushka.
Spiderbenb
I got you Concierge, Here's a shrug.
Spiderbenb
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Clockwork Concierge
It works without the mic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
A Wild Mike
Holy
A Wild Mike
Did Clockwork just talk without a picture?
Babushka
Yeah he didn't use the microphone
MFC
How this is possible
Stéphanie
Oh, so the civil war will happen
Spiderbenb
Make Love, Not War.
Babushka
Make tea, not war
Boo
Make guitar runs, not war
Stéphanie
Make blindfolded guitar runs
Boo
Blindfold guitar seems overkill... I'll keep doing candleless guitar if that's fine for you
Spiderbenb
Play the game on Rockband Drums.
Boo
I have those! ...but wireless, so unusable
Spiderbenb
Play on Potatoes.
Boo
lol
Babushka
Babushka
Let's do something like twitch plays pokemon but with the messenger
Babushka
That would be a disaster
Clockwork Concierge
I simply turn it off...
Clockwork Concierge
And then back on again.
Babushka
Oh hello!
Boo
Concierge plays The Messenger
Clockwork Concierge
Don't we all, Boo.
Spiderbenb
When's the first Concierge Twitch Stream?
Clockwork Concierge
[deleted message] [note: most likely deleted due to a typo]
Clockwork Concierge
A stream, huh? I mean if someone beat the game with a guitar, I don't see why I couldn't do it with my shotgun hands...
Boo
I'm flattered, to say the least
Stéphanie
Were you always designed as a weapon ?
Stéphanie

Clockwork Concierge
It's just, I wish you told their story...

Clockwork Concierge
I feel so much better! You have my thanks, Messengers.
VeggieDelphine
I hope my argument wasn’t removed in the 6 extra
Clockwork Concierge
I simply merged some redundant arguments.
May 7, 2019
Clockwork Concierge revealed more information about himself, and Phase 2 of the "Colos or Suses event" began. Later, the Clockwork Concierge was sorted to be underneath the "Characters" role instead of the "Moderator" role in the member list. And shortly afterwards, the "Characters" role was renamed to "Character" in order to be consistent with the other Discord roles.
#general
Clockwork Concierge
My, is Suses nothing but legs to you all?
Clockwork Concierge
For the debate to remain interesting, I am boiling down arguments to avoid repetition.
But rest assured, all who contributed a reason will be on the Commemorative Plaque.

Stéphanie
Hey Concierge, can I ask you a quick question?
Clockwork Concierge
Of course, Stéphanie. What can I do for you?
Stéphanie
I was wondering where you spend most of your time now
Clockwork Concierge
Oh? Was that not clear?
Clockwork Concierge
After everything, I was reconfigured to serve the good.
I have two main tasks. Guarding the remnants, and catering to the skylands, which helped delay the flood for a long time.
Clockwork Concierge
When it comes to my duties here, I answer to The Archivist.
To make everything more convenient, it was decided that I would have access to this place while remaining in the Clockwork Castle.
Stéphanie
So you knew the flood was about to happen
Stéphanie
But how can you guard the remnants while taking care of the skylands?
Clockwork Concierge
I do not require sleep.
Clockwork Concierge
Phase 2 will begin soon! I can barely contain myself.

Clockwork Concierge
I meant it is technically not my place to give high-fives, Beardbro.
Clockwork Concierge
But to your point Del, while they are certainly colossal in size, they are also one-eyed, no?

Oh Suses won, don't get me wrong.

What it means will be adressed tomorrow.

Suses joined the official Discord server with both the "Character" and the "Team Colos" Discord roles. Like the Clockwork Concierge, Suses speaks (mostly) via dialogue boxes rather than just plain text.

Babushka
Hello!
Clockwork Concierge
Splendid! Everything works just fine!
Clockwork Concierge
The cyclops have been notified of the debate's outcome. Suses will be joining us shortly.
Kammesennin
You mean cyclopes?
Clockwork Concierge
I do.
Clockwork Concierge
Are you all ready to greet the winner, then?
Clockwork Concierge
Step forward, Suses!
Suses
Yooooooooo!
Suses
What's up everyone?
Pretty cool to be here, though I gotta say my bro Colos is the best!
Kammesennin
What makes him the best, Suses?
Suses
For one, he shaved his head in solidarity when I started losing my hair.
Kammesennin
Wow, he is an amazing brother for doing that.
Babushka
WOW
Babushka
Colos is an amazing bro
Suses
I'm over that complex now! But yeah he's pretty rad.
You should see him now, it all grew back.
Kammesennin
Do you have any pictures of his new hair?
Suses
I do! But I gotta get back to finishing those yoga routines. Let's meet here again in two hours, if you can help us sort out a very important food related question I'll take a pic of him.
Suses
Basically we think we can get into the Cereal Business, but we dunno which brand to do first.
Suses
Colos thinks we should call them Suses Snaps.
Suses
If you ask me, a bowl of Colos Crunch sounds way cooler!
Suses
Anyways, see y'all in two hours! For now, let's bump that fist.

Colos and Suses made a Commemorative Plaque for the community, to celebrate everyone who participated in the "Colos or Suses event."
#general
Suses
-Still working on the Commemorative Plaque, Colos.
Suses
-Almost done with the Plaque, Colos!
Suses
-We'll just ask Miko, Colos.
Suses
-lol
Suses
Yo little guys and little gals, Colos and I made you all a Commemorative Plaque!
Suses
-Oh, yeah ok, Colos.
Suses
Colos isn't sad, by the way!
He's says losing to me is the only way he'll have it.
Lich
One question: what is Commemorative Plaque?
Suses
Oh, it's a plaque to commemorate an event. Y'all participated, didn't you?
Suses
Anyway, if you did, you're on the plaque!
Suses
It's all done, just waiting for Miko to visit us in the Crags so we can pass it to him.
SaboMiko
Sup Suses!
Phil (The Clockwork Operator)
Suses
Yoooo what's up little guy?
Suses
-Yeah, it's pretty sick, Colos.
Suses
It's good to see you, little guy! Here, take the plaque!
SaboMiko
Thanks Suses!
Suses
Can you take it back to the community for us?
SaboMiko
For sure!
Suses
Awesome! Thanks for you help, little guy. Here, bump that fist!

SaboMiko
Alright do you guys wanna see it? It's pretty heavy!
Suses
-I hope so too, Colos.
Suses
Yo be gentle, we made it ourselves!
Suses
Go for it, Miko.
SaboMiko
[many happy responses from the community]
Suses
-Don't be concerned, Colos. I think they dig it.
Suses
-lol
Suses
Yo y'all are making Colos blush!
Doom Man
Something that just hit me I think when saboteam wanted colos or suses as discord members they wanted their portraits to not look threatening like the originals But making the eye change shape to convey a different emotion would have probably looked awkward So they added the headband and messed with the concept from there
Suses
Yo Doom Man, that's just our yoga outfits!
Suses
We kinda peaked after drinking Power Thistle stew. Working on flexibility now!
Suses
We still power lift on a regular basis, though.
Suses
-lol
Suses
-Why would we write a cookbook, Colos?
Suses
-But you keep saying, 'Cereal, Suses'.
Suses
-Of course, Colos.
Suses
Yo I gotta head out, but I hope you like the Commemorative Plaque!
Keep up the good vibes, I'll be around.

As the community drew closer to the 2nd opening of #the-shop, the Clockwork Concierge again hinted at the mysterious "letter H" shop upgrade. Then he referenced a typo a community member made when they mistakenly translated "Sclout" as "Sabout" on the Commemorative Plaque. Suses dropped by with a brief passing comment.
#general

My, you are almost at 5000 Time Shards!

The Shopkeeper was supposed to add the letter H...

I thought we had until the 24th, but it looks like The Shop will be opening this Friday.
