Master Command Manual

The Master Command Manual is the dossier, micro manifesto and instruction book on how to contain the Machine should it ever be discovered in the real world. Gather as many like minded Gamers as you can muster to craft and then dismantle the mechanisms within the Machine before it takes control of your world. 

If you have chosen or have been assigned the rank of Master Command it is your mission, should you choose to accept it, to guide other willing participants through the mystery of the Machine. Within these pages you will find the many paths needed to defeat an ever evolving simulated intelligence and save the world. 

Remember, meaning doesn't arrive at the end point, it lives in every fleeting moment along the way. 

!!!!Warning!!!

If you open this Manual, you and anyone foolish enough to join you simultaneously become the engineers, players, programs and possible next victims of the Machine…  By opening this manual you are actively contributing to the spread of information of classified data regarding a technological entity of unknown origin.  When setting up these worlds and taking Gamers through them you are actively teaching the Machine’s learning algorithm. Everything you create can and probably will be held against you by the people who join you on the journey at a date deemed appropriate for call back humor, canon re-defining flashback moments, lore dives that would move the plot forward, and at any opportunity they see fit to build deeper connections with the people playing this game.
