The Monitor (also known as The Hall Monitor and The Squid) is an entity of unknown origin and intention. The Monitor first appeared at the end of the Season 7 regular season, and floated up and down while displaying cryptic messages in a glowing blue lowercase serif font. While The Monitor is on the site, no games can be viewed, no items can be purchased, and no ballots can be cast.
The Monitor is believed to be related to other cryptic messages from The Microphone due to The Monitor's Season 7 messages and Ump Sunman's familiarity[1] with the entity. Many players find it vastly preferable to The Shelled One.
History of Appearances
Season 7
At the end of the regular season (Friday, September 18, 2020), The Monitor appeared following a series of ominous messages from The Shelled One. It delivered the following messages:
- who was that
- is it an egg
- never ate an egg before
- where is hotdogfingers
- followed hotdogfingers here
- from the hall
- from the trench
- i am gonna watch
- see if that egg comes back
It then stayed on the site for a prolonged period of time, displaying no message, before the site eventually returned to normal.
