I personally don't understand why this is so heavily contested. The idea that they won't accept the fact that its just a beach ball is pretty well done and pretty funny. My only gripe is that the tests are maybe a bit short and a bit mundane. Maybe adding a couple more tests would be good, but even so that's a +1 from me

This is the discussion related to the wiki page SCP-6283-J.
I enjoyed this article quite a bit, the idea that the Foundation constantly overcomplicates things with precautionary measures is very funny to me, and this article executed that idea pretty well.
My only problem is that I feel many of the tests are unnecessary and pretty removed from what I think the Foundation would test first, this results in the joke almost losing its strength and overstaying its welcome. It didn't do that, but it was close.
Tentative upvote.
(account deleted)That would make it more fit for a mainlister though, and I would have to add a satisfying reveal at the end if that were to happen. For now, it's canon in this article that the beach ball is non-anomalous, and the researchers aren't willing to accept that, even though the list of anomalous properties it doesn't have keeps growing.
Experiment 6283-J-102 Dr. Cho holds a non-anomalous beach ball similar in appearance to SCP-6283-J, and punctures it with a knife in the presence of the object. No noticeable changes are reported to SCP-6283-J, Dr. Cho, or any of Dr. Cho's relatives. SCP-6283-J does not appear to be able to perceive, or at least react to, non-anomalous beach balls.
Relatives? Did you make a mistake or is this intentional? Other than that it’s a decent article. Not too good, but not bad. +1
It's intentional, it's supposed to imply they were testing if the beach ball is going to "get revenge" by hurting the researcher's relatives in some way.
