• Hey everyone happy Christmas Eve we're aware of what's happened with the source code so to keep this simple absolutely don't post it on the site or use it to make mods with (it's not particularly preferable toward this end anyway) and tread lightly in general until we see how this settles, thanks to all and have a great holiday season -DT

Do you realize you just bumped a three year old topic? XD
There is not an issue with that here as long as your post was related to the thread and not revived just for the sake of it.

Ah, okay, I wasn't sure because most forums discourage that sort of thing. My mistake, let the topic continue.

3 months, sure.
3 years, I think you're pretty safe off just making a new thread. Let alone continuing the conversation as though it just happened. ...As your first post. Rmph.

Even SP has done it before, on the oldest thread in this forum! :p

Now to get back on topic my theory is that Ballos's power corrupts. It is what caused the red flowers to mutate the mimigas, it is what corrupted the Core, and it is what corrupts the minds of the crown bearers just to create havoc in the name of Ballos to please the destructive nature of his insanity.

Jenka had to go to great lengths to contain him yet it still wasn't enough to fully contain him.

At least in theory.

(Threadomancy is complete.)

But on-topic, I have a tendancy to believe the "crown" is not a tangible object, but a metaphor for an unreal conduit of Ballos's madness/power. It is only represented as a physical object for the sake of the game itself; so there is no actual tangible focus of evil, just raw corruption.

...

Meh.
