    First, we get LeftyDCI from Narrow Raven and friends, but then we get Lefty being built by William to lure the Puppet away from FNAF 1. Lefty is getting a lot of love. Though the only problem is they both can't be true. And honestly, I highly doubt Lefty was built by William. The blueprints state it was built by Fazbear Entertainment and not Afton Robotics. And at this point in time Afron should basically have no affiliation with them.

      True it does say fazbear entertainment on the blueprint, but from the week before we know a guy named Dave works at the fnaf 1 location. I believe this to be william and if he's going undercover at fazbear, he couldn't use the afton robotics name without giving himself away.

      @@TerminalError I don't see why that would mean Afton respringlocked himself. It's described as an animatronic meaning he is in the vents as Springtrap, not Afton.
      As for the animatronics being rebuilt, that's actually quite simple. We know they have spare Endoskeletons and full costumes in FNAF 1. And for why they are still haunted, the shells of the old animatronics are still here and are haunted. Plus, we know the animatronics poses the building in some way in the Week Before. Not to mention, Afton being Springlocked before FNAF 1 not only makes it, so you have to bend over backward to explain the saferooms being sealed phone call after Ralphs death. It also gives further credence to the idea that Michael is looking for Afton, and so he works at FNAF 1 trying to find him. (Before or After SL, it really doesn't matter)
      Edit: Oh, you meant if Afton Springlocked himself before Follow Me and Follow Me is after FNAF 1.

    The Mimic1 program/AI is based on Daisy, a DOS script/program from the 1990s / late 1980s. The Mimic body is based on Cog, a robot built by MIT in the early '90s. In both cases, the physical technology (the literal circuit boards, chips and so on) needed to build them is very similar to hardware available in the early 1980s. Edit: The Animatronics for Pirates of the Caribbean Ride were made in 1967, after several years in development.

    19:30 I think that's how he figures out the Puppet is possessed (23:23 New Tear Tracks gained after Charlie's death = Possession, so he moves to the next stage of his plan to try to "recreate the accident" with the Funtimes), While CASSIDY is the cause behind Fredbear gaining black accessories, becoming Golden Freddy.
    ADue to Fnaf 4 possibly implying CC is MORE connected to Fredbear (Based on Nightmare Fredbear)...
    This means it's CASSIDY'S Possession that turns the accessories BLACK. Plus their colour in the Security Logbook with Black hair, Yellow Hair Ties, Blue/Cyan shirt.... which match Golden Freddy's Black Accessories, Yellow Fur and Movie GF/Fredbear in the SB posters have Blue/Cyan Eyes.
    Meanwhile CC seems to have Freddy's colour scheme. Black Shirt, Brown Hair, Blue shorts.....While Freddy has Black Accessories, Brown Fur, and Blue Eyes.

    Circus Baby's Pizza World has to have opened before Springlock Suits were retired, as they had a suit on hand.
    Even if the 'unfortunate incident at the Sister Location' was something else, that tells us when the Springsuits were retired, as the tape AFTER that one mentions Springbonnie being moved and tells people not to bring customers into the safe room. The Springsuits started being phased out a little bit before the MCI, and were sealed up after the MCI in order to hide evidence before the place shut down. (While the exact language indicates a few suits at a few locations may have stayed in service for a bit, the last confirmed sighting of a springsuit is at the FNAF 2 location in 87, it was a spare not in service, and that happened before the place closed).
    So Circus Baby's Pizza World was opened in mid 1985 and Elizabeth died right before the MCI. The Gas Leaks teaser implies the Rental Location opens months later(but probably not even a full calender year), so by 1986 the rental location should be up and running, which makes it very easy for Micheal to have gone there prior to FNAF 2, possibly right before FNAF 2.

    • @TerminalError
      @TerminalError  20 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      I agree with some parts of this, but not all. Yes circus baby's needs opened before springlock suits were decommissioned and the wording of the phone call when they were decommissioned implies that some suits may not have been properly removed, I dont think the suits get discontinued immediately after the mci. The phone calls in fnaf 3 sound like they are pretty close to one another with how Ralph starts them off with things like "just a reminder" and "previously mentioned safe rooms." Plus as you said we hear about it in fnaf 2, and because follow me occurs in what looks like the fnaf 1 building, I dont think they get decommissioned/discontinued until some time before fnaf 1. The Week Before says they've been open for a bit already, and Ralph's daughter mentions fredbear. All of this leads me to think that the suits dont get removed until the fnaf 1 building where they then get sealed behind the safe room wall.
      Also the grave order in Help Wanted 2 princess quest leads me to think that since we enter a sister location elevator after lighting the graves, Elizabeth's death comes after them meaning circus baby's opens between fnaf 1 and fnaf 2. I say take youre daughter to work day because of something in the week before where Ralph says he was glad he didn't bring Copellia to work on take your kid to work day making me think a big incident happened that day and the first bring your daughter to work day was 1993.

    Unless the original Fredbear is a clockwork Automaton (popular in the 1700s and 1800s with programable discs, such as the Writing Boy). Many were built with music boxes built into them and where meant to either appear to be performing the music or dancing to the music. Some where as small as a 16" doll and one Swan + it's own pond (which also animates) model which was the size of a long dining table.

    • @TerminalError
      @TerminalError  19 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      I think rye toast said this in a podcast or something but it's possible for Henry to take Edwin's role, but Edwin can't take henry's. They have similar stories but Henry is an owner of Freddy's while Edwin just works for them. Henry makes it clear that he wants nothing to do with Freddy's after fnaf 6 while Edwin returns to the pizzaplex in the books. And their kids server different purposes in the story. Charlie possesses the puppet to protect the kids and David teaches the Mimic how to play and gives it some of its characteristics.

  • @luluzin5022

    I still don't like the idea that William built the Rockstars and Lefty around the time of FNAF 1. It's hard to believe the Rockstars were never put to use in the 30 years between FNAF 1 and FNAF 6. If theorists were supposed to figure that out, then the Rockstars being the face of FNAF 6 was really misleading on Scott's part. Anyone would naturally assume that the new set of animatronics were created for FNAF 6's restaurant, not decades prior to the game's events.

    • @TerminalError
      @TerminalError  19 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      I dont think the rockstars weren't used in those 30 years. I thinks that's exactly how William was able to disassemble the originals in follow me. He made the rockstars, fazbear has a large enough budget to move to a new location, they take the new rockstar line instead of the originals. I think the other animatronics in fnaf 6 help support this. While we don't see any of these animatronics at older locations, we either know or can theorize that they are older animatronics from previous locations. Trash and the gang seem to be really old, parts of the mediocres are in "into the pit" the game showing they are at least from 1985, funtime chica is mentioned in source code around sister location, and the rockstars would be the newest and most advanced set we can purchase in the game because they came from the newest Freddy's location.

    love this interpretation. on your point about RTTP's MCI count, i agree that the MCI is 5 kids, however the ITP game, while showing 6, implies this 6th one is "special" somehow. i take this to mean that the 6th one (who's likely Andrew) died either shortly before or shortly after the MCI, but the agony of the ballpit generalised and lumped him in with the others killed during that time period. Furthermore, there's an ending in RTTP where we follow the yellow rabbit 2 days earlier than the scene where we see the MCI and there's already a kid dead in the storage room. this COULD be the 6th one

    Oof, Circus Baby's between FNAF 2 and FNAF 1 is a big respectable swing. Though I will have to disagree. Between Baby's Birthday line on Thursday in FFPS and the 1587 code from Baby I think it's more like that Circus Baby's opened on July 1st, 1985.

    • @TerminalError
      @TerminalError  19 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      I would agree that it seems like it comes out of nowhere, but I promise you there's some evidence. Like I said, I think it happens on take your daughter to work day but I got that from the week before which has a line saying Ralph is glad he didn't bring copellia on take your child to work day and they emphasize "especially not then". There's only 3 characters in the games with dead kids who work at Freddy's. Edwin, Henry, and William. From these 3, there's only 1 without a confirmed placement on the timeline and that's Elizabeth. After looking into take your child to work day, I found out that it first occurred in 1993 as a national holiday (first being called take your daughter to work day). Does this confirm my theory? No but I do think them including a holiday that can be traced back to close to fnaf 1 and singles out basically 1 character is a very interesting detail.

      @@TerminalError My main criticism to that is that Elizabeth wasn't going to bring my child to work day. She was going to the first day the restaurant opened like everyone else. Plus, even if you wanted to argue, Elizabeth isn't going there as a normal child and only staying with William. I highly doubt the first day the restaurant was open was also bring your child to work day.
      Plus, the community doesn't have a solid explanation for Baby's 1587 code other than it being the date she died as what else would it be. (We know it isn't her counting children as it contradicts the numbers she tells us for that).

    Schrodinger's sixth MCI victim. With that blood splatter beneath the table in the DCI minigame (I forget what it's specifically called), maybe Scott has always had a secret MCI victim in his back pocket.
    But then, why six graves in 6? Should it be 7? Unless either a) the grave we thought was Charlie's is this victim, b) Charlie is the sixth victim (my personal headcanon) or c) they weren't in the fire and weren't put to rest properly, or d) they don't have a grave? Like they had no parents or their family thought they were a runaway or they were replaced with the dreaded ROBOT CHILD.
    It still FEELS like a retcon. And if it's Andrew I'm going to be mad. I will die on the hill it'd be stupid to introduce a brand new character in the books just to make UCN more convoluted (he was probably in the books so Afton could live long emough to explode his evil goo everywhere so we can have more spooky stories)
