[QUOTE=Maximo13;33557037][URL]http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-686[/URL] Best SCP :quagmire:[/QUOTE]Jesus fuck, that's categorized as [i]safe?[/i]
You put it in a box and leave it and you know exactly what will happen and nobody will die, so yes, it's safe.
[QUOTE=Allstone;33577247]You put it in a box and leave it and you know exactly what will happen and nobody will die, so yes, it's safe.[/QUOTE]But it comes from herds of creatures producing it at a rate admitted to be almost impossible to keep in check, and every last drop of the stuff can mutate other creatures into equally mindless mass producers of it. Might as well say that the "Meteor Shit" from [i]Creepshow[/i] was safe as well, because it could have theoretically been put into a box and sealed away somewhere.
The milk itself won't do anything when put in a box. If it was Euclid, you would have no idea what was happening. If it was Keter, it would be actively trying to escape and kill things.

If it was Keter, it would be actively trying to escape and kill things.[/QUOTE]But that's a rule-of-thumb for if you're really unsure where to put something, not a definite set of standards. For example [url=http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-407]SCP-407[/url] would have just sat there and done nothing forever if you put it in a box, but what it could do and how easily it could get out of hand if it was allowed to do so definitely bumped it out of the "safe" range.
The thing is, a giant kill-robot of death could be considered safe if it was easily contained and secured with no margin of error, the way I see it. Euclid means that the Foundation is unsure of the boundaries / strengths / limitations of the creature so it's impossible to properly contain it as of yet afaik

The point is that basically any box would be fine - you can store it safely rather than actively containing it. Shoot all the existing milk producers, store a bottle of the stuff and dispose of the rest into the sun or something and there is absolutely no risk posed: the SCP is safe.
Lock box test: If you can lock it away, forget about it, and nothing happens, it's Safe. If you can lock it away, forget about it, and you dont know what will happen, it's Euclid. If you can lock it away, forget about it, and shit gets fucked up big time, it's Keter.
[QUOTE=Cone;33565092]So would most of the SCPs.[/QUOTE] I found SCP-057 a bit more terrifying because unlike most other SCPs where you could die, with SCP-057, you [b]will[/b] die - you're only going to stay alive as long as you can keep moving - once you stop, you're dead.
I can't connect to the SCP channel anymore, apparently my nickname isn't 'registered'

Whenever I go to SCP right after being on FP, am I the only one who clicks on the blacked-out areas, thinking it's in spoiler tags?
I always like to play some of the Portal 2 soundtrack whenever i read up on Dr. Bright.
I just noticed how alot of scp's are explainable by people wishing for things. The coffee machine by a person in a coffee store who didn't want to do any extra work, 173 by an artist who wanted to bring his sculptures "to life", and make em "really jump out at you", scp 682 by a kid who didn't want his pet lizard to die. I am not going to list all of the scp's but go through the list and a good 80% you can explain as a wish (/gone wrong) [editline]11th December 2011[/editline] Scp # 1 Genie of [REDACTED]
Has there been done one about a magic 8 ball, I could easily make a decent (not retarded, overly complicated, unrealistic) entry. If one has been done, let me see if I can make a better one.
I just remembered that about a month ago we were burning some old boxes.... On one of the boxes I noticed "SCP-107" or something similar. I'm wishing I had taken a picture...

The SCP is an SCP itself!
[QUOTE=hoodoo456;33673752]Maybe... The SCP is an SCP itself![/QUOTE] That was the gist of someone's proposal for SCP-001. The FBI investigated some kind of anomalous school building that rearranged its interiors and locked its auditorium so nobody knew what was going on inside. The building developed self-awareness, captured anybody that came near, and converted them into proto-Foundation personnel; the entity had a basic grasp of English in the early stages and referred to D-class personnel as "d-men" and I can't remember the rest. It was interesting.
[QUOTE=hoodoo456;33673752]Maybe... The SCP is an SCP itself![/QUOTE] The most difficult thing for the SCP to secure contain and protect is itself.
Y'know how a lot of the SCPs are dissections of popular cliches and tropes? Well, I've been thinking; you know how when video game protagonists die, they just go back to a point where they didn't die and try again, but with all the things they learnt the last time they died? Has anybody done something like that? Just deconstruct the entire meaning of what it is to be an FPS protagonist, and look at how having an infinite amount of time to perfect one's skills could both be a godsend and a fate worse than death? Hell, if you really wanted to get meta you could imply that there's actually a person playing as this SCP in some alternate dimension and the entire world is just an attempt to fully immerse the player into it - a true RPG, where everything has consequence, with maximum realism, graphics that can't be beat, and the best AI in the universe. It'd be interesting to make the reader question what's real in that way, as well as explaining away why there's loads of batshit insane things in what is supposed to be the real world. But... then, what constitutes the real world? See, that's what I'm getting at. Unless this has all been done, which I have a rising fear it has been.
