    When Markiplier and CrankGamePlays put up the channel Unus Annus, they had two big rules.
    1. They would be uploading daily for 365 day.
    2. After those 365 days, the channel would be deleted and disappear forever.
    That is a BIG play. All that work just to have it disappear? It is a bold and simple premise for a channel... except nothing is ever that simple, is it? Therosits, I have watched and analyzed all of the uploads on the channel and I've come to one BIG conclusion. There is something SECRET hiding in the videos of Unus Annus. A secret that someone has been trying to tell us since the beginning. A secret that, just maybe, could save Mark, Ethan, and Unus Annus before the clock runs out.

    Gotta admit, coming back here five and a half months after the final moments, and just over a week after losing my third cat (first one to a heart condition, second one to age because he was a rescue, and my boyo on the 18th to a congenital kidney disease) who was also black and white and the best of boys, this hits so hard.
    I mean it hit hard when I wrote an entire poem just over a month after that fateful day, a poem I'm editing to make as tight as possible to be published in a "real" publishing magazine (something not only English/Creative writers might have heard of) but now… stars above it hit so hard.
    I will say that if nothing else, and I'm terrible with actually taking things to heart when it's not life or death, that I'm glad I took to heart that my little black and white buddy wasn't be to be taken for granted. He was 3. He lived through all of Unus Annus, and because of that channel's impact I spent more time with him than any of the other cats (and my service dog outside of her job) in my house because… because maybe I knew that he wouldn't make it past just over three years. That my time was limited and that his was as well. Just hearing Matpat recite the similar cadence of the opening intro to Unus Annus reminds me of all the things that the series meant to me and what I took away from it in a vivid way that makes me want to reach out to those I care about but haven't heard from because I dropped the ball in 2020.
    To paraphrase a thing I read ages ago on Tumblr: Elves value humans the same way we value our cats and dogs and other pets, we will alway live staggeringly long lives, and be destined to outlive them, so of course we value every second.
    Unus Annus taught me to value that sometimes two and a half years is all you get, and that if you can make those two and a half years amazing for that animal you rescued (or person you got to know) in even the smallest way possible… it's always worth it.
    I'll always be grateful for that.
    Memento Mori.

    Still 3 years later, I find the concept of loss after forming bonds with a cast of characters to be brilliant. This can form an emotional response from the audience and draw more publicity to the creator. This storyline offers a narrative of suspense as we await the doomsday clock of our dear characters' fates, leaving the characters on a cliffhanger, just begging for the next event to unfold.

      Amy was essentially the backbone of the channel, as they [Mark and Ethan] have said in the past. The channel wouldn't have existed without Amy, whether it be her ideas or her behind the camera. Even when she was gone, she was remembered, either through Mark saying "Don't tell Amy" or SCP-11325. Amy was the channel, Mark and Ethan were just the pawns for her to play with and test their limits. But even Amy knew when a good time comes to an end, hence why she was the one who pulled the trigger, and why Mark granted her that ability.

    im very late, but in Marc's bio, he has Memento Salvare right there
    Salvare translates to save or rescue in latin
    just a neat little thing there

    As a note, you showed it on screen, on the Twitter page for their editor: He's trying to stop things, but it also says 'Memento Salvare'. If 'Memento Mori' means, 'Remember that all things die', then 'Memento Salvare' means 'Remember that all things are saved'.
    Nothing on the internet is really ever deleted.

      and also the thing right after it, "Ctrl+S" is a keyboard shortcut which is often used in word processors to save the document.

    MatPat wasn't exactly wrong. There are codes, there's no denying, but I think the person writing them wasn't supposed to actually succeed (and they didn't). Its supposed to show that no matter how much you fight, try, and deny the truth; you will die.

      I think they often use a video where they KNOW that people are gonna watch it ( like the haystack video, like we click on it cause we’re interested of what’s going to happen), to put up their messages.

    I never watched Unus Annus. I never did rally with millions of fans to partake in an experiment, unlike anything CZcams has ever seen. I never partook in the memories.
    But watching this, knowing that the channel is long since dead, I thought of something. The lore.
    It intrigued me, made me think of something that could be done with this premise.
    A spiritual successor, if you will...
