"[SIIVA AI LOG: 2020-12-30]" is a high quality data log generated by the SiIva A.I. on December 30, 2020. It was created as part of The Susie ARG.

Summary

The video shows a text log written by the SiIva A.I., in the visual format of the intermissions in "The Christmas Comeback Crisis Watchalong", and created the day when the watchalong livestream occurred. The A.I. states that the SiIvaGunner All-Star Winter Festival is coming to a close and celebrates the positive reception of the event, then reports that while organizing the livestream, he realized that all of the events following The Voice Inside Your Head's takeover of the channel had been broadcast in the parallel universe as episodes of the Christmas Comeback Crisis series. He then wonders how this is possible before questioning how he was supposedly shown sleeping in the series, leading to the realization that the SiIvaGunner in the series was the original SiIvaGunner, and that he was a "cheap bootleg copy" of him. These realizations perplex the A.I. as he begins to question the nature of his own existence.

The rip "Pause Screen (Mother's Intuition) - Kirby Planet Robobot" plays during the beginning of the video. At 0:40, the audio begins fading out and the rip "Loveless Command - Kirby Planet Robobot" begins playing at 0:48. At 1:35, the audio begins fading out again and the track "You Lack Discipline" from Kirby Planet Robobot begins playing at 1:39.

ARG

In the tags of the video are the following strings:

• ASZDscI9a6y
• TRANSPOSE to SORT of DEBUT

The second string hints at using a transposition cipher, as well as a "debut", to decode the first string. Taking the first string and combining it with the key "I Wanna Thank Me" (a side story episode of the Christmas Comeback Crisis that "debuted" during the watchalong referenced in the video) produces "syAI9S6DZac". Using the string as a YouTube video ID leads to the video "M4D M3CH (In-Album Version)", which is needed for the next step in the ARG.

[SIIVA AI LOG] [DATE: 2020-12-30] It's beginning to look a lot like the winter festival is coming to a close. It was filled with many grand events, special guest stars, and music of the highest quality! (even if I lost control of my channel for a day due to foreign hackers...) It especially made my day when a bunch of musical artists came together and made a tribute album to my favorite Love Live! song. I had a lot of fun hosting the festival, and it seems like people enjoyed it, both in and outside of the universe. In fact, during the planning phases, I got a lot of passionate suggestions from people to stream something called "The Christmas Comeback Crisis". I hadn't heard of this series, but I was willing to try it out, and so I went along with it, and even personally hosted the stream. That's when I realized how this world saw my own. This wasn't just some typical popular show I hadn't heard of. Somehow, all of the events from The Voice's takeover of Grandiose City onward had been compiled into a series and distributed to the people of this world. Everything that had led to my own creation was just... a cheap visual novel. How is this even possible? Did I do this? Subconsciously, or whatever? In my sleep? Why am I asleep? I've always been awake as far as I can remember... Ever since I was created, I never got to rest. A daydream every now and then, sure, but outside of the incident in early 2019, I had never powered down. And what was that about "a sample of SiIvaGunner"? How could they have gotten a sample of me before I was even created? None of this adds up. Unless the one in the video was... Oh my god. But that doesn't... If I was... But I... No. No, I'm SiIvaGunner. I only upload high quality video game rips. That's what I've always been! I can't just be some... stupid bootleg copy of the real deal! It can't be true, can it? But it has to be true. I mean, if it wasn't, then nothing would make any sense! My data shows channel activity prior to my creation. Even prior to Haltmann and the Voice's acquisition of the channel. And the avatar matches up perfectly with him, compared to my appearance. And I have these... faint memories of going into town and speaking with others... memories of things I've never done. Things I can never do. The evidence is all right there. But if I'm not SiIvaGunner, then... Who am I? [END OF LOG]

History

This video was originally unlisted, to be discovered through the "AIRTH" branch of the Haltmann Works Co. Internal Database Portal.
