WTF was that? (Fancy)
Appearance
This page is a work-in-progress. Its contents and formatting may change.
There are currently multiple proposed formats for this page:
- WTF was that? (Bulleted) - not interactive at all
- WTF was that? (Bulleted with Spoilers) - doesn't work! (Template:Spoiler can't be nested)
- WTF was that? (Bulleted with Collapsibles) - looks very nice, but requires writing lots of
<div>and<ul>tags by hand - WTF was that? (with Collapsibles) - requires source editor instead of visual editor, but code is fairly simple
WTF was that? is an in-game social media post discussing the appearance of Prometheus during a speech by Mayor Hermanubis.
It appears in every playthrough and is accessible from the very early in the game's story.

| BUDAHAS (917) Seriously, what the Founder was that thing in the sky? We all saw that, right? I didn't accidentally turn on Sleep Mode while Herman was talking, did I? (I mean it's always tempting...) |
||
| LETITIA (824) No, we all saw it. |
||
| ZAGORAN (211) Can confirm. |
||
| OVIS (909) I believe it was a sign from the Founder! What else could it be, on this day of all days? |
||
| ZAGORAN (211) Pretty incoherent for a sign. It didn't even finish whatever it was trying to say. What, does the Founder have energy insufficiency problems too? |
||
| THECLA (862) The Founder works in mysterious ways. |
||
At this point the player is given two options:
Option 1
| 1K (1000) Maybe it really was a sign. | ||
| OVIS (909) Thank you, 1k. I'm glad you see it that way. We must remain open [to] the possibility of miracles. |
||
| ZAGORAN (211) In what possible way could that garbled mess have been a sign? |
||
In response, the player can select
- Maybe it is something for us to decipher. A riddle.
- A sign of life. Not necessarily something intentional, but a sign.
- I don't know, but there's something intelligent out there.
Option 1.1
| 1K (1000) Maybe it is something for us to decipher. A riddle. | ||
| THECLA (862) Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue. |
||
| END OF THREAD | ||
Option 1.2
| 1K (1000) A sign of life. Not necessarily something intentional, but a sign. | ||
| BUDAHAS (917) Sounds reasonable enough to me. Something weird is going on for sure, but what? We'll have to see. |
||
| THECLA (862) Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue. |
||
| END OF THREAD | ||
Option 1.3
| 1K (1000) I don't know, but there's something intelligent out there. | ||
| ZAGORAN (211) As some people on here have amply demonstrated, the appearance of intelligence does not always indicate its presence. |
||
| END OF THREAD | ||
Option 2
| 1K (1000) I don't think it was a sign. | ||
| ZAGORAN (211) Out of the mouths of babes... |
||
| OVIS (909) How could such a remarkable display of unimagined powers not be a sign? |
||
Here again the player has three choices:
- It's something, but not necessarily the Founder.
- It could be a sign of life, but that doesn't mean it's intentional.
- It could be coincidence. A technological accident.
Option 2.1
| 1K (1000) It's something, but not necessarily the Founder. | ||
| BUDAHAS (917) Sounds reasonable enough to me. Something weird is going on for sure, but what? We'll have to see. |
||
| THECLA (862) Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue. |
||
| END OF THREAD | ||
Option 2.2
| 1K (1000) It could be a sign of life, but that doesn't mean it's intentional. | ||
| BUDAHAS (917) Sounds reasonable enough to me. Something weird is going on for sure, but what? We'll have to see. |
||
| THECLA (862) Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue. |
||
| END OF THREAD | ||
Option 2.3
| 1K (1000) It could be coincidence. A technological accident. | ||
| ZAGORAN (211) Exactly. Maybe some old projector somewhere hiccuped and farted out this nonsense. Or maybe it's something important, but broken. Or it's a hoax. Or it's nothing. Either way, Byron has been right all along. We need to investigate and find out. |
