Upvoted for the Barrack Obama head. The rest was pretty cool too, I guess.

RhettSarlin 19 Mar 2013 20:20

Melikes. Only question I have is, what caused them to reclassify it as Keter, specifically? The transmission from the Agent? I don't question it being Keter, just wondering what the rationale was.

RJB_R 19 Mar 2013 20:21

That was how they realized it can go anywhere and presumably imitate any anomalous object on earth. Imagine if it began to go towards a stationary keter site…

Excellent. The imitation angle is the one I was hoping you were going for. Would upvote again.

jyuviolegrace 20 Mar 2013 02:11

I actually though Rhett was the author, it being a Keter sphere and all…

constant speed of 20 k/ph

and classified as Euclid.

The striking makes no sense in this context.

Addendum 11574-A: Changes to SCP-1574's appearance

Should be messages.

I'm neutral on the concept.

RJB_R 19 Mar 2013 20:45

I had all but the Euclid fixed by the time you posted the comment, it's fixed now.

Also:

Addendum 11574-A:

Is that extra "1" supposed to be there?

marslifeform 19 Mar 2013 21:09

Any changes to its appearance is to be logged in addition to changes in location.

Verb tense

approximately 1.63 meters in diameter

This bothers me.

SCP-1574 was documented as an SCP on 11/23/1941, and classified as Euclid.

Why was this ever Euclid?

Anyways, I'm not feeling this one.

Aelanna 19 Mar 2013 21:42

Because, if it's like in my headcanon, all objects are Euclid first, then declassified to Safe or upgraded to Keter.

TL333s 19 Mar 2013 22:29

That makes an incredible amount of sense.

Pig_catapult 19 Mar 2013 23:07

It just doesn't do anything for me.

Heh, that "perception-altering effect" is neat. +1

Sensei Le Roof 20 Mar 2013 21:50

What? It was never a weather balloon or swamp gas?

pro-mole 11 Apr 2013 20:01

Or old man Jenkins with a rubber mask?

Oddersson 01 May 2013 09:24

Well, this is better than immobile object / unstoppable force, two other floating spheres. There are already transmissions from dying alien races. I'm not feeling it, but it's salvageable. No vote.

Zeke 21 Jun 2013 20:10

Perception-altering effect, nice. I can't help but get a Doctor Who "Chameleon Circuit" feel from it.

RJB_R 21 Jun 2013 20:21

Never seen it, since I don't watch that show. Care to explain what it is, in plain terms that my weak, non-whovian brain can comprehend?

FuzzyBoots 21 Jun 2013 20:26

Basically, the Tardis (Dr. Who's vehicle) is supposed to have a mechanism which somehow manipulates the perceptions of it, and is supposed to always disguise itself as something innocuous fo the environment. A running joke in the series is that it's stuck on the setting for the iconic blue police-box, which sticks out like a sore thumb. Every once in a while, they fix the Circuit, but it always returns to status quo.

RJB_R 21 Jun 2013 21:05

Ah, well that's sort of similar to this one, although I'd imagine the "broken cloak" trope has been passed around for quite awhile, beyond dr. who.

had me until the end part, when it just became a random thing prophesying current events on the day it happens
