Got an interesting take on eldritch horror for all you writers out there. It's a bit of a roundabout schlep to reach the actual idea, but writers tend to be readers so I hold you'll stick with me til we get there.
So, consider a 2D creature. Little flat dude, living on the ground. No concept of "up" or "down." He's 2D, he just doesn't parse the concepts and can't perceive them anyways.
He sees you. What he actually sees is just the 2D cross section of you where you intersect with his 2D world, which is probably your footprints. So, as far as he can tell, you are a pair of footprints that are.... apparently one being? He doesn't get how it works exactly, but it's not too far out there, so he just kind of accepts that, yes, humans are The Two That Are One. Spooky. They always seem to use the singular to refer to the pair of themselves, and only differentiate between themselves as Left or Right. But other paired instances of The Two That Are One are, in fact, separate entities. So they're only in sets of two, unless accompanied by a companion called "Cane," which they are sometimes, or even a pair of companions called "Crutches." When Crutches are present, sometimes one of The Two That Are One will be missing entirely. It's a little confusing.
But wait, what now? They disappear and reappear in sequence, teleporting in turns. He never sees them just move like a 2D being, always the stop-start teleporting. Apparently this strange power is called "walking," and its accomplished by The Two That Are One moving through an unseen dimension called "Up," through a process called "lifting" themselves and re-entering the real world farther away in the direction they wanted to go. He can accept the idea of unseen dimensions, and he vaguely gets the idea that one of The Two That Are One must remain anchored in the real world to prevent something called "falling," which is some kind of uncontrolled movement through the unperceivable dimension of "Down." Which is the same dimension as "Up," but...... backwards? Reversed? He's not really clear, but "Falling Down" is presumably bad, so The Two That Are One keep one of themselves here in the real world to prevent it.
Except if they do something called "jumping." Which consists of gathering up their power to hurl themselves through the Up dimension together to reappear together somewhere else in the real world. He isn't sure why they Walk instead of Jump, since it seems better to take both of The Two That Are One together at the same time, but okay.
Okay, what the hell, they can Walk through impenetrable barriers like the great wall of Sidewalk Chalk? How do they go through that? What? They went "Over?" The hell is "Over?" Like 'around' but through the unseen dimension of Up? But they couldn't Walk through the barrier of Wall. Why could they go "Over" Sidewalk Chalk but not Wall?
And they can't go between the four small obstacles of Refrigerator Feet. The area between them is safe from The Two That Are One, for the four Refrigerator Feet are connected to each other in the strange and eldritch dimension of Up. The barriers are too powerful to be moved by The Two That Are One, and it (they?) cannot enter the real world where it is blocked by such powerful forces.
Got all that?
Okay, now consider a 4 dimensional elder god and how we 3D entities would perceive them.

I am BARELY resisting going full red-strings-corkboard on this season. And by barely resisting I mean not resisting at all here is an extremely long list of the events those pins would be marking out.
- BigB getting a Task that was a different color than everyone else's. It's not just a randomly assigned Hard Task, bc Scar rerolled for a Hard Task and his was also just a white envelope. It's fundamentally different.
- That task taking BigB away from socialization, and seemingly being an incredibly time-consuming and dull request. Of profound disinterest to any watchers.
- The phrasing of his Task!!
Dig a big hole. All the way down. At least 3x3. Make it your base if you want.
- Everyone else's are direct and formal - the only one with more than one sentence was Skizz's, with the rule clarification of "One attempt only." Bigb's Task is four short abrupt sentences. It is also the only Task to contain extraneous information, 'Make it your base if you want.' The requirements (at least 3x3) feel like an afterthought to mimic the numerical/specific demands of the other tasks.
- Evo symbol on the face of the Secret Keeper statue.
- The fact that there's a statue at all; the fact that there is a physical representation of what is assigning tasks that everyone must complete, when previously everything was always handled via commands and unseen RNG.
- Grian talking to the statue, and (bc of his Actual Role as game organizer) acting as a mediator for the impartial decisions handed down, speaking for it.
- Grian making one last bad joke and saying he doesn't know if it counted or not- depends on whether we the audience laughed.
- Grian asking for task recommendations from the audience. The watchers are making the tasks. The Watchers are making the tasks.
Again I could be off-base, and I'm not usually even that smitten with bringing in Evo lore. I don't want a Big Bad really...but. It feels like something very unusual and intentional and cool is happening in this series. And I'd guess we'll know if theres something going on once we have more than one data point.
My largely unfounded suspicion is that there is another being (maybe Listeners, maybe something else) trying to reach out to the Players via decoy Tasks, and BigB was the first recipient. Get them alone, make them of disinterest to the watchers, and tell them something we don't get to know.
Because that's the really, really fucking cool part (if my wacky theory is remotely right): We're the bad guys. We're the ones giving out tasks - hell, we're the ones actively brainstorming harder and crueller tasks in Grian's comments!
If they actually made a story where the Players have to keep secrets from us I will be delighted. Bc that is the same genius bullshit that made Evo Watcher lore so fun

I'm sorry, but the line "how pathetic it is that you can't best me at my worst" is one of the best combat punchline out there and people that say cartoon are only for children are missing out

i actually don't think it's the federation that has the eggs like... at all. they might know more than they let on 1000% but to take the eggs away? nah.
why would they relinquish the very carefully crafted control they established over the islanders by taking away the one thing that kept them subdued?
i keep trying to find a reason there for them to do it, but with what we know of the federation... taking away the eggs is the opposite of order. it's the opposite of happiness for the islanders (and themselves).
but if there's a bigger threat then how come they had no idea about it when they literally know everything?

oh apparently, according to people on tango’s stream, mumbo has decided that he’s moving in with grian in his cubby, since all the decked out cubbies are taken. this is both entirely unsurprising and really funny. as always, grumbo is the single most Do Not Separate pair of people imaginable.

There was one thought I had about qFit that I realised I just didn't share
There are so many ways in which he exhibits behavior that he learned from 2b2t, (logging out further away from his base, not trusting people fully, ect) but one of the more poetic of these behaviors is how he treats signs.
Signs on 2b2t are one of the very few things that seem to be universally respected. People often leave signs to prove that they were there, to leave their mark on the world. When Fit travelled the highways in the past, he would occasionally find a sign from someone lamenting that they were about to die. These signs are considered important, and seldom are they destroyed.
The worst place in the world, full of the worst people in the world; and yet they will tear your house apart brick for brick until they find one that has your name carved into it.
Enter the eggs, his son especially. They can only communicate through signs, a method of communication Fit (as a historian) already sees as sacred. He makes sure to read every sign, to stop whatever he's doing to do so. Maybe it reminds him of his home, it's a parallel to him; except instead of in the past, these signs are in the present; instead of untouchable, permanent, these signs are fleeting, more valuable; instead of "I was here," "I am here"; instead of death, life.
Everything around him speaks measures of where he came from, but immeasurably better. This is what his life should always have been.
Is this anything
