BIGGEST FACTS💯💯💯💯
Well we could write the screenplay. It's a open market
Not a Netflix original most of those suck

@@michaelseemayer8150 scary cuz it seems to be getting hotter like earth is getting closer to a fire
44:52 "The broken god also knows that it must stay broken" Now that is a really really fucking interesting line.
Do you mean the very concept of a broken, near all powerful entity recognising that in order to preserve everything it must forever remain decided? Because I’d have to agree with you on that front.
@@ronald1416 well theres a lot of analogies you could make that are mostly at least somewhat accurate. Personally I was thinking about how the universe, and the physical plane is made of god. Even if you were going with the strict doctrine of the church, you can make that viewpoint almost regardless of how you believe in your faith. If everything was all reclaimed into god, reality would cease to exist. I think about it on other levels too. Such as even regular life forms. More complex life forms like humans (by complex I mean evolutionarily complex) take on many small organisms in order to make up the whole that the creature is. Other living things necessarily cause disruptions in their environment, sometimes its destructive to other life forms. Sometimes its destructive to everything including itself. Back during the Paleoproterozoic era the first bacteria ever figured out how to synthesize oxygen as a byproduct of harnessing the energy from the sun by liberating some of the hydrogen from the waters surrounding it. This new found energy source let these oxygen producing bacteria rapidly overwhelm other bacteria and out competed for resources with their ability to harvest more energy quicker. The problem was although they had recently only over several thousand years discovered the trick to liberate hydrogen and use it, they hadn't had the time to evolve protection to oxygen. This is getting to wordy so ill cut to the point. They filled most of the planet and over produced oxygen and almost wiped out all life on earth, which was just simple single celled things at the time. You could analogize the sum collection of different bacteria and species to be a god. Some gods are destructive even to themselves by their very nature, even if there existence is necessary for a short time to use that generative chaos to create new forms of order. This is all heavily analogistic mind you, and is not meant to be taken literally. However I always find it fascinating when metanarrative overlaps with reality, like when repeated pasterns in story telling from different cultures describe the balance between some sorta dark and light duality (not in a moral sense), and this mirrors how complex systems function in the physical world. But yeah, I think you get the point.
@@nickmagrick7702 jesus fuck that a long comment Ain't complaining though, good point
In some versions of the story Mekhane, aka the Broken God, used his actual heart as a prison for a rival goddess. This unfortunately means that, if he got rebuilt, she would also escape and a war of divine proportions could start. EDIT: The rival goddess in question is apparently Yaldabaoth, the one the Sarkics worship. The last war between both sides, led to the collapse of the Bronze Age...

Yall can we just appreciate how dope it is that this proposal just ties basically the whole scp multiverse into one grand narrative? Even the other 001 proposals. Like dam dude this must have been one hell of an undertaking
Kehlan Morgan As far as I’ve heard/read, the author DJKactus has always gone above and beyond with his contributions to the SCP site. A lot of them covered by this channel.
Sorry to burst your bubble but this is just copy-paste with no effort to keep the respective SCP's linked. "Shoddy craftmanship" as they'd say in England.
@@SebHaarfagre Sure dumbass.
I think it tried a little hard in some places to include literally every single notable SCP/tale. I was waiting for peanut boi to be the final boss or something. I enjoyed it overall but there were some really reaching areas, and the "battles" got far, far too ridiculous to be believable.
honestly i didn tlike this, alot of cheesy and very coincidental oops moments by the scp foundation. It feels like a dumpsterfire in some places
I think the reason this is my favorite is because I’ve never finished it. Usually I pass out by the time he gets to the broken god running amuck. The antimemetics on this one always give me a good nights rest.
Finally finished it just now, you haven't even like, you haven't even seen anything to do with the actual proposal it's insane. Djkaktus blew it out of the water with rhis and it's definitely worth finishing
@@Amphibian42 The whole part about them so easily killing all the Overseers is really lame lol
@@GeronimoPlaz”easily?” - first of All they had the secret help of O5-2 - Calvin had a spear that could kill gods. Pretty hard to stop that. - the entire team except Calvin died (Adam was saved by fountain water, doesn’t really count) at the hands of the Red Right Hand, which kinda balanced it out - Aaron Seigel also had a mythical weapon, which really balances it out. The entire story is basically embodied in the second to last scene, where Calvin and Aaron battle with equally mythical weapons. Calvin with the spear of the nonbeliever, and Aaron with Lucifer’s sword.
@@o5-1-formerlycalvinlucien60I think what they're trying to say is that there was a significant lack of action, and more a focus on the actual story throughout Part 4. I guess OP thought Action would generally be something that would be accompanied with assassinating the leaders of what is possibly one of the most powerful organizations in the entire universe.
@@GeronimoPlaz It wasn't easy, though?

At least send him the files on the administrator and the truth about the foundation for some closure
At least he bulked up I suppose, yea sure all his friends are either dead or in the foundation but at least he doesn’t have a creepy fuckin zombie watching him sleep (seriously wtf they did my girl Olivia bad)
@@leontrotsky9268 Olivia was done dirty af
Yeah but going the logic of the Ouroboros cycle. Adam would most likely be the next 05-1 after killing calvin.
As amazing as the Ouroboros Proposal is, the thing that always blows my mind is that it’s literally less than half the story. This series was written by DJKaktus, and he’s implicitly confirmed that yes, it is indeed canon with the Kaktusverse, an even bigger and more ambitious story that’s actively in progress across such articles as SCP-4812 and SCP-6666.
Omg, i fuckin love SCP-4812

Underrated comment
I kinda find it perfect that “America personified” rides what is essentially Godzilla. Mainly because the king of the monsters is often used as an allegory not just for nukes but the USA specifically. Thus making Godzilla literally be America personified.
This actually reminds me of the tarot cards
I like how 05-09 is just a normal person
At first I thought this story was heroic, but after listening to it a few times I realize Calvin is just a petulant child that is mad an SCP killed his mom. He isn't a hero, he's a terrorist. He's every terrible thing the Foundation says about the Chaos Insurgency.
How? the foundation did a lot of wores things its true tf does it matter if they die bc your saving everybody do you know how many people the scp foundation killed people to save everybody
@@amlesetwelea9840 But how many people did Calvin kill to eventually realize he was wrong and join the Foundation anyways?
@@amlesetwelea9840 the ends justify the means.
I mean, right around the time anyone starts rambling about their ideals being too important, the socially acceptable response is to make a handjob gesture, roll your eyes, and ask them if they're feeling cranky and need a nappy-poo. Or, if you have the positional advantage, pants them. Ain't a goddamn man, demon, or god that can make their ideals look good with their pants around their ankles, and the bend of shame to get them up will kill their momentum.
@@funky1185 and what was the “ends”? That’s right, a return to the status quo. It was literally all for nothing

@@aprinnyonbreak1290 SCP-204, son
One of my favorite scp series
In the original way it ends document the first intro to the overseers is really interesting It lists the crimes of all the overseers but for 05-2 it just reads “The Second Overseer: Is complicit.” Which is a super interesting line that I really like
I might be that Since O5-2 helped Calvin to destroy the Foundation, she did good enough to be excused of her crimes, but since she still continued to work at the Foundation, she is still complicit. But since the Summa Modus Operandi was written at the founding of the Chaos Insurgency, it doesn't make sense.

@Ultimate Rodgers Im sure but that doesnt make it any less surreal
The entirety of part 4 got a little too absurd at times in my opinion. I get that it was basically written to be SCP fanservice but imo 1730 does a better job at that while maintaining some semblance of consistency. I mean really, a guy riding SCP-682?

D-Class personnel are instructed to write a story of three paragraphs every month as a way to monitor the effects of a possible SCP-6969-1 in their brains. Description: SCP-6969 is a physical copy containing chapter 3 & 4 of the "Ouroboros cycle", SCP-001 proposal. The object possess the size and weight of booklet. Reading the content in SCP's-6969 pages produces a clear increase in fatigue, insomina, and adverse effects of the writing skills of the subject. Infected individuals by SCP-6969-1 are to be registered as SCP-6969-a instances. Severe effects of SCP-6969-a can degenerate in SCP-6969-b instances, were the subject will attempt to recreate the actions of fictional characters labeled as "Marie Sue's", or their male counterpart "Marty Stu's", where in the need to be seen as heroic, exemplar human begins, will instead be found as plain, dull, unoriginal when ti comes to their personalities.
I used to be an amazon delivery driver and would listen to tons of stuff while i drove and your podcast/video series on SCP’s was one of them. I remember spending a whole day listening to this (starting and stopping between deliveries) and loving how it developed over time as i drove from day into night. Thank you for doing these and for keeping entertained during those dark days of mine.

“... such as Cthulhu...or *starts laughing lightly* the Flying Spaghetti Monster “ Not gonna lie....I had the absolute same reaction if not multiplied by a thousandfold.
I really want to hear the outtakes of that
Was that in the video? Do you have a timestamp for it? I played this video in the background and missed some stuff.
Us pastafarians deserve representation
Omg I just listened to this series again and I came up my own interpretation to the last part where Calvin Lucien answers the phone at the end to the Administrator. I feel that Frederick Williams, the original Administrator, was the reason that The Foundation ended up becoming an anomalous idea that took a conscience of its own when " he tugged on the frayed strings of reality.". Listening to what he was saying about how Seigal was the only thing that stood between him and the rest of humanity, it had me thinking about one SCP that really has it out for humanity. So my thought is that The Administrator is The Scarlet King.
You know, I'm just revisiting this, and the Administrator being The Scarlet King is very plausible, actually. People don't see the connection, but it's obvious, if you know the Cactusverse and Scarlet King stories. Glad someone else noticed.
Ok please tell me I'm not the only one who put this video on while trying to fall asleep

Yeah, Part 4 is anime as hell. I mean, there’s even 13 episodes! And then the epilogue, but... disregard.
Agreed
I didnt like all the abrahamic stuff, I've always felt uncomfortable with scp tales or articles that imply any real life religion is true. Plus Calvin is such a fucking Gary stu

I'm so absolutely enamored with the Ouroboros Cycle, it's an absolute masterpiece of a story and I'm definitely reading the full version after listening to this. DJKaktus made me care for these characters and their lives and struggles, after the encounter with 05-3 i was genuinely sad about their fate and that's a big feat for a storyteller. I've grown so cynical with most movies and stories because most of us can smell from a mile away when and which characters are set to die, and fake out deaths have made me unable to care when a character actually dies since I'm constantly expecting that last moment Deus Ex. The writer is brilliant
Did you read the full version? It's way more impressive. Hope you liked it!
"I'ts likely that sometime in the 2020s there will be some major public event, and within 5 years of that, things will be too much for even the foundation to handle" Well shit

So we just gonna glance over how Calvin punched Dr. Wondertainment in the face and stole his book which he then used to kill all the overseers?
I'm so gonna cherish that image.
I think that was Marshal Carter and Dark
That was Dark from Marshall, Carter, and Dark.
@@o5-1-formerlycalvinlucien60 it was Carter from Marshall, Carter, and Dark
@@Purewater100Percent Literally everyone is wrong. It was Marshall from Marshall, Carter, and Dark. “Oh, no, I wasn’t kidding when I said that I stole it,” Calvin said, matter-of-factly. “I got a hint from one of our friendlier Coalition contacts that Skitter Marshall had taken to keeping it on his person while he was trying to decipher it. I also knew he was going to be in Berlin two days before the Von Marr Gala last spring, so I happened to find myself on the sidewalk as he was getting out of his car and just jacked him.”
I fall asleep during a 45-minute lecture about important life skills by an old guy during school Now a three-and-a-quarter-long youtube video explaining an overly complex and confusing story about a fictional internet project THAT's what I'm talking about

I need an Ouroboros Cycle Anime, It'd make one hell of a 12 Episode series
Twelve? Fleshed out right this could be season seasons ten a piece
Bruh, no doubt that the ending of this tale would physically and mentally broke me down if this was turned into an a anime series.
12 episodes with 2 episodes with a school trip.
Maybe two 12 episode seasons
The animators would just lose it and die then and there lol
Just... taking actions determined by coin-flip is SUCH a good move against O-12. That just blew me away. Amazing story!
1:16:50 "It's likely at some point in the 2020s that there will be some major public event and within five years of that, things will be too much for even the foundation to contain." Well, that is one hell of a coincidence.

Personally it felt more like something like a mix of Metal Gear and Hitman with a touch of Greek or Roman mythology.
I think this could be made into a good movie. Seems impossible at first glance, as the story is too grandiose and nuanced at the same time to be presented for a movie audience without context. But with a couple of changes in the pacing, repositioning some of the flashbacks, and some additional exposition, this could be an incredible cinematic piece.
would need some revision
Lemme stop you right there bro a movie would never fit all this information cohesively or into an enjoyable piece even if it was as long as the snyder cut for justice league

While the story is indeed in a league of its own it has many plot armor moments sprinkled within. That said it is a gem of a proposal for scp 001
1:45 wow this guy who wrote this chapter is a legitimately good writer. Best out of the stories, uses actual character development... however I suppose if the rest of the stories were in the same format, stuff like this wouldn't have anywhere near the same impact.

This is genuinely one of the best collection of stories I’ve ever heard, the way it ends was so well written it amazes me, it’s such a grand homage to the SCP foundation and it’s done so well Everything is done so well I can’t get over it The little detail of Adam being the man that was friends/lovers with the leader who turned to the foundation out of seemingly no where, turning his back on everything he’d fought for perfectly mirroring Arian is just insane to me It’s hard to believe this story came from the same universe as peanut boy and orange therapy slime but it’s still so amazing that it adds to all of that
