Overthinking about FNAF since 2019

Calling all TSBS FANS!!!

With TSAMS coming up on being four years old, uploading a video almost every day, with every episode lasting anywhere from ten to thirty minutes, it now has more episodes than one peice, somewhere around 1,400 episodes. That is, using a conservative average of 17 minutes per episode, is 23,800 minutes, or 397 hours, or 16.5 days, or 2.4 straight weeks of video footage.

Given this, it is a little bit insane that there’s no good way for a new viewer to catch up on the story. If a new viewer watched five episodes per day (almost an hour and a half of just watching) then they would catch up to the episode the day they started in 280 days. By that point, there would be 280 more episodes to watch that were posted while they caught up on the old ones. If they continued to watch 5 episodes per day, they would spend 56 more days watching those. Then, they’d similarly have to catch up on those 56 new ones, taking 11 more days. Then, 2 more days for the remaining 11 episodes and finally, one more day before they are fully caught up.

That means, if they started today, they would have to spend 350 days just to watch every episode until they finally caught up on everything, and would have spent 5% of their entire year just watching TSAMS episodes on YouTube.

So, given that, I want to try and summarize every episode from episode one to now, trying to catalog every bit of information in a giant transcript of the entire show. If you’d like to help me out with transcription, you can do so by transcribing an episode of your choice, and posting the transcription along with the name and date of the episode. I will copy the transcript to an obsidian vault (essentially just a better version of google docs with HTML and tags) (with credit of course) and then, once published, it will mean we finally have a good way to look up information about this stupid show without watching hours of video footage.

If you would like to participate in this project, I have an example of the formatting for the transcript down below. The main things to keep in mind is the names being on a separate line to the speech, and that being separate to any motion or sound affects needed. Really, as long as you use punctuation, line breaks, and capital letters, I can fix any formatting issues when uploading to Obsidian. Please tag me if you post a transcript or at least use the tag #TSBS transcript project. Currently, the only episode that has been taken is the very first one, by me.

I present to you #Dandtober feel free to join amd use the hashtag I can’t wait to see what people come up with

Have you heard of Inktober? Goretober? Welcome to the same idea, but with TSBS theming!

Steps:

Read the day's prompt! (Or pick an old prompt that you skipped or missed!)

Draw, write, craft, compose, or edit something related to the word of the day! ("Sick" could be interpreted as a character with an illness, or someone doing a really cool trick.)

Post it somewhere! On the fridge, on your socials, and ideally with #TSBStober if you can so people can find it easily!

Feel free to spread the prompts to other socials, though there is a version already being posted to TikTok and to the official TSBS Discord. Be sure to tag responsibly, and follow whatever rules there are where you post (Discord rules, site content allowances, etc.)!!

Yippee! It’s gore of my comfort character
