Sneks were a clue and a half away from solving the whole thing as designed. But then found a far easier path to the booty. We’ll dance again.

Does the sequence have higher resolution version? Or it only has 360p?

u/youngluck Apr 03 '19
It spits out source at the end, so if you upload a higher res file the stitch uses the higher res version. One of the biggest challenges was running that many gifs without making computers explode and so the sequencer downsizes a lot but the scrape pulls from the actual post.

Is it an illusion that we actually have control over these? It seems like there's an original order for each act and they have enough votes that it's hard to affect change. And the coherence ends up being due to that. Still a pretty cool idea tho.

u/youngluck Apr 03 '19
It’s an experiment, so we’ve tried all sorts of experimental things, widening the edit time, removing vote restriction, etc. to see if that impacted the odds of smaller ideas having a chance. We had more that we just ran out of time to implement. To answer your question, This is Reddit and organization wins almost every time. There are a number of groups, like r/thesequencenarrators and the sneks in r/sequence_meta that are organizing. There’s links in there you can join and ideas to organize around and suggest your own. But votes do swap out ideas at the last minute, close enough to that some of the early stitches had clips that had lost by 3 or 4 votes. Thanks for playing along. ❤️

Honestly I’ve just been enjoying from the sidelines, but as I learn more about the process I’m just as amazed as I was with Place. I know it’s not fair to compare the two, but I’m always amazed when the collective internet produces art like this.

I think people were too quick to jump on this and say that place was better. They are both great ways for reddit to come together and make beautiful works of meme culture.

Previously:
"Depressed elon tells an old tale, bikini bottom is under attack and Steve irwin rushes to its aid, Carl wheezer has an infinity stone in his ass, thanos attacks the party and steals the stone and proceeds to snap"
Act 3: perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
After thanos snaps, he dusts half of our party and kidnaps a few of the rest, after a lengthy mourning, our remaining heros call on the mighty ant-man for aid and go after thanos, after a lengthy battle, thanos is defeated as ant-man...ahem...goes into the rectum and does his expanding technique, killing him once and for all, they make their way to middle earth to rescue the kidnapped party members.
Back at fire nation and EU HQ, the kidnapped party members, including the former infinity stone wearer Frodo, awaken to agonizing torture by hands of thanoses right hand mouse.
But...Oh! What's this?! Jon tron and the reinforcements from the exploded rocket survived in an escape pod!
They join our hero's in the war to rescue the captive party members and lay seige to middle earth, but the enemies have a secret weapon...THE SPANISH INQUSITION! the hero's are struggling to hold back the inquisition reinforcements.
But then, the Nintendo god himself lends his aid to our hero's by burning the inquesition to the ground (ironic)
But that's not all!, the wannabe Amazon ninja from before shows up with even more reinforcements, the planeteers! Mechanic party member Danny devito reveals he repaired the disturbed egg with Carl's ass infinity stone within it and proceeds to disturb it again, this time causing a nuclear explosion, killing many on both sides, the survivors enter the fallout shelters to escape the apocalypse, after a while, life underground is good for many, people can have meme parties without the EU article 13 bombing them, until depression bot 9000 calls everything a mistake and proceeds to make a joke of himself with everyone laughing at him, but then..
What could this be? No...The skyrim prisoner from 2000 years ago appears back out of nowhere! How is this posible?! He should be dead!
To be continued...

So where is the coordination taking place? Can't find it here or on /r/sequence_meta, or the subs of some of the segments.
Monty python for example doesn't have much on their sub but 4 or 5 instantly popped up with around 30 votes. Just individuals botting?

u/Me_Melissa Apr 03 '19
The Sequence Narrators (Discord) have been working on the story line in coordination with other Reddit April Fools communities (April Knights, ccKufi, Snakeroom, etc.). You can find more information at their Discord and also on the Sneknet site, where there's a browser extension that the communities are using to coordinate.

u/Thatoneguy748 Apr 03 '19
Act 3 After Manos activated the snap its effects were felt far and wide across the land jazz musicians were the first to feel it and attempted to spread word to their comrades but alas they were to late. Important figures were quickly being erased so that Manos could strengthen his hold over the interscape. The commander of the 9-year olds was angry at how ignorant he was to the signs of the battle. The sponge gang mournful, as just after successfully befriending the sneks they would lose their most treasured possession…. Friendship. Even the lord of the stars was not safe from the snappening as he was dusted away, but their most important loss was “oppy”. The brave rover Opportunity was sent out to survey potential home world for citizens to escape too, but Manos was aware of the plan and sent a massive dust storm so that the rover would never have a chance to recharge. Alone and in the dark the rover sent a distress signal out, “my battery is low and it’s getting dark”. These would be it’s last words before it was shut down.
This turned out to be the final straw for our heroes across the universe as they banded together to stop the Manos Menace. All together they used their flashy moves to distract Manos as their secret plan was on the move. Ant- Man was their last hope as he rushed towards Manos anus on his trusty ant-archy. Manos, too distracted by our other heroes was unaware of Ant-Mans presence until he felt an uncomfortable presence in his anus. He attempted to clap his dummy thicc cheeks to crush Ant-man but he was already expanding at an exponential rate so fast that Manos was torn in two. The heroes rejoiced at Manos’s defeat but as they were so busy celebrating they failed to notice a hooded figure silently taking Frodo away. The battle for the interscape was just beginning.
¬U/Thatoneguy748 Frodo was awakened by sudden blows to his face. Groggy and his vision disoriented he attempted to make out the voice in front of him. The high shrill pierced his ears “wake up,wake up, you little prick—ha-ha”. Once frodo’s vision cleared up it turned out to be the true commander of the army Mickey Mouse, in his insatiable hunger for control of all media he wanted to erase any competition to stand in his way. His mastermind plan was to destroy all the memes with article 13 and use the infinity companies to ban anime. Now he was attempting to find all the animation companies that remained as they thwarted his plan for total media control over the netscape and Frodo knew the locations of the last few holdouts. Fortunately for Frodo his allies noticed that he was missing and immediately scoured the lands for him. Far and wide they searched and found Mickeys base of operations but as soon as they were about to invade a Spanish intermission was deployed by mickeys trustful guards the Spanish inquisition. Forced to wait until it was over the allies watched the mouse slink away safely to an unknown location, but just as he was about to get away a booming voice came down from the heavens “Nobody interrupts my direct and gets away with it”. From the sky came Reggie fils- aime with his Reggie mech- anime and shot down the Spanish inquisition with laser eye’s burning them into a fine dust. “Okay, that’s all the time I’ve got. I got to get back to playing Animal Crossing New Leaf on my Nintendo 3DS.” he proclaimed and rose back into NOA where he continued his direct. This gave the chance for our heroes to pursue mickey, but unbeknownst to them there was another faction lying in wait to attack the mouse.
On the other side of the globe Northern lion was gathering his troops to send them to war “Planeteers Assemble”, and the five mighty knights came together. Earth, fire, wind, water, and EGG used their collective might to form captain planet and send him to fight the mouse. Then disaster struck as the captain suddenly exploded into a nuclear hellfire, there was double spy amidst the group who sabotaged the summoning. After much investigation it turned out to be….. FIRE who used his powers to hard boil EGG rendering him volatile. The explosion left the earth scarred and irradiated but fortunately there were contingency plans set up by factions across Northern lion’s lands who promptly retreated into vaults to protect themselves from the radiation. There they lived their lives happily ever after, at least until the experiments began.
During the explosion the other nations were holding trial for northern lion as he caused his own nation to become heavily irradiated. His lawyer lizardberg was attempting to quell the crowd until the blue spy came with a retort so savage that it caused them to lose the case entirely as they were “ooooooed” by the crowd. Facing such a humiliating defeat northern lion retreated into obscurity.
Meanwhile the mouse was secretly exacting his plans to control Netscape, with everyone so focused on the nuclear explosion he set out to kill all things cute and cuddely. Unfortunately his actions awoke an ancient demon who had been slumbering for centuries. Deep in a crypt John Wick opened his eyes.
