Im gonna be honest I have no idea of what you where talking about with the rss and wikidot stuff.

But I found these links:

https://www.wikidot.com/doc-modules:listpages-module

http://community.wikidot.com/forum/t-756409/alphabetizing-my-pages-and-subpages

No idea if any of them help at all. But good luck o7

Also Ty. I looked into these and couldn't find anything solid for what I was trying, but maybe I'll find it eventually. I've got a working most recently created pages, but… turns out those pages are often pretty terrible and get deleted very fast! So pointless for my efforts.

Idk if you found it yet, but that scp you were talking about with the Fae and Metal might be 6800. It’s about the Mekanites, specifically Saint Hedwig, turning the fae into a magical metal, and the foundation using that metal despite the effects it has on the environment.

Yes it is! Ty! That's actually really helpful, I never did find it on my own. Oddly enough I remember some dialog that isn't there in the current version? I could have misremembered (likely) or merged it with another unrelated scp (also likely). Or I could have read an early beta version that later had parts removed, since I read it some time ago.

But I'm very glad to be able to reread this one.

SCP-6800 - The White Ashes

[scp-torment]

Whatever boop count I get by the end of the day, I'll post that respective scp. There's your goal, good luck.

Minor edit, just to be polite: while this is a thing that's happening, I'm turning off notifications for this blog. I saw what happened in April, and I wasn't even active for that. This is for my own already nonexistent sanity. Please don't get me past series 8.

How the fuck does sorting work. Why is there no documenting on rss. I know it's been mostly forgotten of and hidden but come on. Does literally anyone know how to get a feed for new articles over x rating. I KNOW there's features to sort by rating, but they aren't working in practice

In the past several months, I've got really into rss feeds. And discovered a LOT I can do with them, including filtering things by how recently they were created or how highly rating something is, depending I the website.

If I can find a functually feed for SCP (or wikidot severs in general), this blog won't exactly be automated, but it'll be a lot closer to what I've been wanting

I know it’s more of a silly SCP but SCP-2337 has a special place in my heart.

SCP-2337 - "Dr. Spanko"

Also don't worry, I'm covering all things, regardless of how serious or silly it might be. That first article was just the first one I've read in a few weeks and also the one that got the most visceral reaction out of me in a long while. Silly ones are more than welcome!

[scp-torment]

BTW I'm queuing any interactions I get because I foolishly choose to start posting things right before I head to sleep. If you want, you are free to submit several SCPs over the next hours and I'll answer them all once I return

New post(s*) incoming :0

And by new post(s*) I mean whatever articles I think are cool. Feel free to send in a few to be "featured"

* = exactly one (1!) post planned. Hopefully more assuming I don't immediately get sucked back into containment again.

For seemingly no reason at all, I've been thinking about this blog again. Maybe it's the changing of seasons that has certainly happened. Maybe it was the eclipse. Maybe it's the █████ I was recently exposed to. Who knows.

A second* tournament was never in the cards for this blog, it seems. The primary one and the follow up tales exclusive tournament were all I was able to do. Apologies for the abandonment of the second primary (* = not counting tales' mini bracket)

But, with the change from tournament -> torment, maybe we can drift away from fights. Or at least, nothing I have to plan. I'd like this to be more of a community space. Where you can come dump about your favorite anomalies or tales or whatever else you might, and maybe get recommendations in turn. A space for the community to simply exist and interact. We'll see.

So, while I maybe overhaul this blog, (or at least the remainders of the tags), why not send in some recommendations for me and others to read?

And your winner is…

We Need To Talk About Fifty-Five

(Final poll results here)

A great story that kicks off a great canon, this story is now the official unofficial best tale. At least it will be as long as it's remembered. I highly recommend checking out the full series, it's a good read.

Now, analytics, anyone?

* = numbers not guaranteed to be perfect. This was done with math, maybe to be replaced in the future with exact numbers.

Since this was just a mini bracket, there's not actually much going on here! Aside from the fact that the average amount of votes only ever went *down* from round one, which is definitely unusual. Most of the big numbers happen in round one.

Some notable matches though:

All Alone On A Friday Night VS Incident report 239-B had the highest total votes, for all rounds. It also had the highest individual votes.

Which is funny, because All Alone On A Friday Night was immediately beaten the next round with the lowest amount of votes all round.

It didn't have the lowest individual votes though. That privilege(?) goes to The Generally Uncomfortable Laboratory Adolescents Group VS Working Dogs match, with favor (or at least, the lack thereof) falling to TGULAG.

The most decisive match was The Lamest Story Never Told VS Portraits of Your Father. Sorry I out such a big match so early on. By my math, Lamest story won by only one vote! So don't feel bad if you were rooting for PoYF, it was close!

Meanwhile the least decisive match was the very first one, We Need To Talk About Fifty-Five VS Miroir Fumant. We need to talk won by nearly 17 votes, which in this tiny tournament, is a lot!

And that's all. Full bracket and first matches for the second tournament will come… eventually

We Need To Talk About Fifty-Five

"Can I smoke?" This time the receptionist narrows her eyes at Marion. "No," she says. "You— No, you can't smoke anywhere on Site 200. Just because it's an administration building doesn't mean we don't have lungs. Or labor law." Marion notices the exasperation on the young woman's face. "I've asked you that before, haven't I?" "Twice in the last quarter-hour," the receptionist says. "You must really need a smoke." She's genuinely puzzled at the repeated question, and she's doing a bad job of concealing her puzzlement. "You think this is like Memento, don't you?" Marion offers, charitably. "You think I have no long-term memory, and if I stay in one place for too long I forget why I'm there." The receptionist is only just old enough to remember that film. "I… guess?" Marion smiles sympathetically and shakes her head. It's nothing so simple.

Yesterday

The world was burning.

going as fast as i can to READ all these stories and then pick which is my favorite... im so behind on my reading

Well luckily for you that's why we have such things like this post with all the tales in the currently running mini bracket, and this post with all SCPs from the original tournament!

Soon (ish, few days) I'll put up a new directory with all the SCPs that will be in the second tournament and their stories.

(For that 2nd link with all SCPs, you have to open each reblog as the original to have the Propaganda tags work, but links to the main site will still work fine)

[scp-torment]

hyped to see yesterday fight 55, my two favorite tales

Fight fight fight!

I'm also so glad I don't vote on any of my own polls to avoid bias or throwing it. I honestly don't know how I would've choose for this upcoming one

They say you can't deprogram attack dogs.

Whatever you train into them stays in the forever.

Duke 'Till Dawn

Foreword by O5-2: On █-██-████, an investigation was launched into the continued viability of SCP-083. Several factors were taken into account, such as the relative danger involved in sustained containment and cost-benefit of the costly procurement of virgin blood on a regular basis. In conclusion, a unanimous decision to terminate SCP-083 was made amongst the O5, and handed down to Site 19 administrators. After researching the difficulties involved in terminating a regenerating, superhuman, and potential Keter object, the termination was set in motion. The man chosen for the task was an old standby, a man of great experience and expertise in the elimination of humanoid SCP objects of great destructive potential. Known for his clean, almost surgical method, he was quickly approved to carry out the termination. Unfortunately, he was not available. Despite urging from peers and subordinates, Dr. ████████ Kondraki was chosen to perform the termination. After giving himself the proper clearance and approval to do so through a loophole he had found in relevant regulations, O5 grudgingly accepted his self-appointment. O5-8* assuaged the board’s fears with Dr. Kondraki’s impressive credentials, and claimed that given such an important responsibility, he might finally take his position seriously. *It should be noted here that O5-8 was a new appointment, and had not been present for the previous disciplinary actions involving the senior doctor.

Wow that was a surprise lowering votes. I guess I won't post them at 5 pm UTC anymore. Next set of polls will go up tomorrow around 11 pm UTC. And I'll properly announce them and all, since I'm not sure why the vote counts went from 30-40 to 20~
