Needles is so fucking funny. Every other avatar in the tma-verse literally just goes by their fucking name. If they have a title it's either a) not something they commonly use or b) given to them by someone else/generational title.
Then there's needles here going "I'm needles and I'm needling all over the place" incredible 10/10 no notes

Canary. I have so many emotions about that it’s a FUCKING canary.
they are giving us. A fucking canary. You know, the warning sign for miners to get out as fast as possible when it dies. To not go deeper. To not keep going. In episode ONE (1). It goes into the magnus institute.And it dies.
“Canaries should stay above ground”
Something something anglerfish luring us in, something something canary dying, telling us to GET THE HELL OUT.
—except that.
It’s also a RED Canary. You know what that reminds me of? A red herring.

"the magnus protocol had a whole ARG beforehand? what?"
yes! it did!
"oh so I need to have participated in this whole big thing to actually understand the podcast?"
not at all! from the official post-mortem put out by RQ, "while the ARG was not something that was necessary to participate in to understand the magnus protocol, it was designed to contain a wealth of background story and context that would enrich any player's listening experience."
"a wealth of background context that would enrich my listening experience 👀👀👀 how can I learn about this?"
SO glad you asked. sadly, many of the materials made for the arg have been taken down since the game ended 😔 (ex., the official OIAR, magnus institute, and bonzoland websites. though @strangehauntsuk is still up!), so we're a bit low on primary sources, but in terms of learning about what happened:
for a starting point, I would really recommend this video by @pinkelotjeart
youtube
it's super accessible, it was made in real time as the game progressed and follows the solving and revelation of clues as they happened, it hits all the major points of the mystery and moments of community insanity while eliding some of the nitty gritty puzzle grinding, 10/10 would recommend.
here's the official summary put out by RQ, and I'd recommend reading through this once you've already gotten a basic handle on the flow of the story and the basic connections between major clues and events. it's got some fun behind-the-scenes info and lays out the thought process behind the puzzles in simple terms
here's the full masterdoc of all puzzles and resolutions put together in the statement remains discord server. masterdoc my absolute BELOVED, masterdoc my bethrothed, masterdoc my soul mate. I'd recommend this as a second port of call after the above video as it either contains all details about the puzzles or links to other expanded docs that do.
here's the narrative summary doc that lays out all the plot and lore discovered in three pages of plain prose. if you just want to get to the good bits as fast as you can and get blasted directly in the face by contextless lore bombs, this is the doc for you. if you don't want to start with the video, I'd say this is another good entry point.
once you've got the lay of the land, some of the game materials that I found particularly interesting include:
the in-universe east germany expat usenet forum, with all content translated into english. most of it is irrelevant space filler with occasional extremely sus lore, but I still found it fun to read through. love to soak in some fictional forum drama.
chdb.xlsx, the spreadsheet of the names of all the children the protocol 'verse magnus institute was studying/experimenting on. EDIT: here is a version of the sheet without any annotations and with all of the names in their original order, kudos to @theboombutton for catching that the commonly shared copy had the order swapped around.
klaus.xls, a (very corrupted) spreadsheet with what looks like the classifications of a bunch of old OIAR cases.
EDIT: have a few more saved materials from the game that I forgot to include.
an in-universe audio ad to apply to the OIAR that ran before archives episodes and kicked off the whole game.
an in-universe video ad to apply to the OIAR, this one is an official upload that's still up from the game itself. you can subscribe to the OIAR's official youtube channel today, if you so chose.
the robo-voicemail greeting from the OIAR's phone line.
once you start poking around in these documents, you'll find a bunch of links to others with further information, the materials I've included here just contain what I feel to be the most relevant details to getting a broad feel for the whole game. once again, huge shout out to the statement remains server, I was barely in there as the ARG was in progress and only ducked my head in every so often to find links like these. true mvps of the fandom.

WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THE FACT THAT CELIA IS THE SAME CELIA FROM TMA??
THE CELIA THAT THOUGHT MELANIE AND GEORGIE COULD SAVE THE WORLD?!
THE SAME CELIA WHO USED TO BE LYNNE HAMMOND AND CONTACTED THE INSTITUTE?
THE SAME CELIA VOICED BY LOWRI ANN DAVIES
THE FACT THAT NOBODY IS MENTIONING THIS IS MAKING ME FEEL INSANE
LIKE DR DAVID IS TELLING ME ITS ALL IN MY HEAD
MAYBE THE REAL CELIA WAS THE FRIENDS WE MADE ALONG THE WAY

I think not enough people are talking about the fact that Elias Bouchard, the original Elias before Jonah took over, came from a wealthy family. if this universe's Gwen comes from a version of that same wealthy family, it makes that nepotism comment make sense. it makes Gwen's ambition for higher things make sense. it makes her shame to interact with her probably also wealthy socialite friends make sense. walk with me

thinking some kind of thoughts about the fact that the response box Sam accidentally checked was "response 121" and the computers have a JMJ error and we hear incidents read from Norris and then Chester and then Norris again

the final whispers in vampires will never hurt you say “like a sparkling pinwheel of sterling chainsaws cascading through cardio procedures. doctors call it luck, but others call it style. and it’s always innocent, like rollercoaster fatality, like ghosts in snow.”

when gerard way sings "the broken, the beaten, and the damned" and when kermit the frog sings "the lovers, the dreamers, and me" they're talking about the same people btw
