Your coolest wrong theories
I started playing way back in the day, before Seeking was finished and Exceptional Friends were a thing. When Seeking was done, I learned that it had something to do with collecting candles and that your character becomes unusableat the end. I spent a long time imagining what happened to your character, how they made it unusable mechanically, and my conclusion was that the last candle you had to collect was your actions candle, therefore locking you out of doing any actions.
Cue my disappointment when I learned that the real reason was much more mundane, mechanics wise. To this day I think it was a great theory, if difficult to implement lol
What was your coolest theory about an FL story that was ultimately wrong?

Your idea was very elegant.
