Floofy’s Sen no Kiseki IV Predictions

As per tradition, we’re all dropping in our predictions, our wishes, etc etc for what will come about with the undoubtedly epic ending to the long-running Erebonia arc.

Remember, these are, of course, going to be delving into not only Sen III spoilers, but probably series spoilers due to the nature of this particular game.

To Trust a Dominion

Over the course of the series, we’ve seen- even to the ones that have good qualities without a doubt- that the Dominion are not very likely to tell the whole truth in many situations.

So when we’re given information from one that seems to have issues with it, why do we accept it without question?

[Administration] More Headers and Broken Comments

There has been a little bit in the way of work on the backend of things of the site.

More Headers

I’ve finally added some new heroes to the rotating banner across the top of the page. These include some Sen no Kiseki III (finally), a couple of Sen no Kiseki IV, and a few others from other parts of the series as I felt the need to add them in while working on the others.

As a result, the site has gone up from 30 headers in the rotating cycles to 47.

Broken Comments

I’ve been dealing with an issue related to the commenting system being broken. As a result, this may end up with a small overhaul on this part of the system. I will keep people posted with any updates in that area as well.

I will be including both of these updates in the site changelog. Which sorely needs updating anyway….

The Eyes Have It

After being devastated upon the ending of Sen no Kiseki III, I had to stop and take a step back to disengage and get myself together again. Somehow, it seems to help to look at things with a bigger scope than I would have as disaster was happening one after another.

In the process, I came across something that has been around for quite awhile in the series- a pattern that’s been seeded since First Chapter came out.

This theory will cross over much of the entire series- as a result, there will be tags across all the games.

[Admin] Site Changelog and Projects Page Made Public

Hello, everyone!

Instead of working on the several crack posts that I have to finish, I ended up doing some work on the backend of the website.

I made an attempt to create the exclusionary filter that I’ve been promising for over a year, but the on site experiments for it have failed. As a result, it’s time to go back to the drawing board and try to figure things out again.

But this is also a good jumping point to introduce a page for the site that I’ve been working on since it migrated to esterior.net. This page is where any projects that I am working on for the site will be publicly posted, such as the exclusionary filter that I mentioned above. On this page, you can also see the changelog based on any major updates that have happened on the backend, as well.

If a project comes up that requires funding, the possibility may be opened for regular readers of the site to be able to pitch in directly to funding that feature, and then they will receive credit on the page when the feature goes live.

You can find the page here, or in the dropdown for ‘about this site.’

Dreichels Once Again

Unlike my Wald prediction, this one should be short and sweet, but I feel it is necessary to post it so that I have it time stamped before Sen no Kiseki III comes out this week.

I believe that we’ll see a repeat of the chain of events for Dreichels in a strangely similar fashion, as time seems to be interested in repeating itself.

But while similar events are happening, they are not exactly the same. Click the cut to find out more detail on this idea.

Wald Wales: Beyond Ao no Kiseki

This started from something I was 100% convinced to be complete lunacy. It was to the point that I wasn’t entirely willing to even bring it up to anyone because of how ridiculous it sounded. However, I eventually talked it out with Guan, and in our attempts to break the theory, we kept finding more things to even add to it.

It was frustrating!

However, at this point, with everything else in mind, I feel that I can put this theory out, and state that Falcom has been hiding something big under our noses this whole time.

There are, of course, endgame spoilers for the entire Crossbell duology in this theory. Be warned! (There is also a Cold Steel 2 spoiler in here, because it involves a topic that’s difficult to talk about without referencing others related to the topic.)

[Admin] Quick Reminder Regarding User Accounts

As a reminder, I was not able to migrate user accounts over to the new location. You will need to re-register for logins. I’m also activating an additional feature to allow you to comment using logins from various social media sites, but you will still need an actual account to this site to be able to submit theories.

If you need to register for your account, you can from the login option on the main menu, or from here.

[Admin] Welcome to Delicious Crack no Kiseki, Now Hosted on esterior.net!

Welcome to the new home of Delicious Crack no Kiseki!

A New Home

In order to move to a smaller, yet somewhat faster server, on top of centralizing all of the Falcom related websites, I have decided to move the site from the sanctuarycrew.com domain to the esterior.net domain. Here, it will be hosted alongside both Endless History, Geofront, and the archive site for Eidenyaku.

A project for the future may involve incorporating the sites together under one WordPress umbrella, but for the time being, they will happily remain separate, utilizing their own databases and so forth. A user account on one will not transfer over to the others. It will be a huge invasive update to every one of these websites, so I would prefer not to do that until activity on all of the sites begins to slow down a bit.

You can read about esterior.net on the page accessible from the main menu below the header. If anything happens regarding the hosting available esterior.net, please reach out to me via twitter (@omgfloofy), or on the contact form found on Endless History.

A New Editor

During the process of moving the site to its new home, it was also decided that Aliseyun would become one of the site’s editors. She introduced many of the theories on the site, and has been a very helpful part of all of the work on the back end. You can reach out to her on Discord, or via twitter, at @aliseyun.

A New System

The user submissions on the original site worked by filling out a contact form and dropping your theory concept there. This has been updated so that you will be able to have your theories properly credited to you! If you have previously submitted theories and would like the ‘author’ line to show your name instead of mine, register for an account, and let me know. I’ll happily switch your submitted posts over to show you as the author.

If you are not logged in, you won’t be able to see the form when submitting your question or theory on the page. This is, in order to create the post on the site, an account is required to be listed as an author. This will help for in the future if you wish to search for any theories that you, yourself, submitted.

For those who are worried about their contact info in my hands, all you need to register is a username and an email address. That’s it. I also don’t intend to sell your info- and I hope people know and expect that answer from me. Last, but not least, your login info is basically just kept to this site specifically. Because of this new system, the userlist has been wiped clean and you will need to re-register for the site. That can be done here.

A New Future

There are some minor things that are still waiting to be done, but they are also reliant on premium tools that I need money to purchase- and such things need to wait a bit, as they’re not 100% essential.

Some of these things will include a spoiler filtering system. The tagging system of the site will finally achieve its intended use, and you will be able to exclude posts using the tags of specific games, for example. This is still in the works.

Also, once there is more traffic to this site, a new method to display popular theories instead of recent theories will be on the sidebar.

The submission system will also eventually be upgraded to a ‘pro’ version, which will allow me to perform more customization to it. When this happens, you will also be notified of it, but it won’t be an immediate thing.

Last, but not least, there will almost always be tweaks to the site’s CSS. If suddenly something seems a little ‘out of place,’ it might have been shifted by some of the constant ‘under the hood’ work I do on my websites.

And as always, if you run into any issues with the site, please let me know. I will do what I can to fix it right away!

[Admin] Final Steps to Migration

For those who didn’t know, Delicious Crack no Kiseki is about to move to a new home: https://kisekicrack.esterior.net/, where it will share some space and the domain with Endless History and Geofront.

The post migration has been completed, and for the next few days, in order to finish some final touches and get some additional functions running on the site (it is having a big upgrade to the back end during this process!), the submission form and comments will be going offline here. This will be so that there will be no need to do any more migrations now that this step has completed.

I don’t expect this to take more than a few days, or a week, at the most. So the site will definitely be back before Sen no Kiseki III comes out!

There will also be a wonderful surprise announcement on the new version of the site. 😀

Thank you everyone for your support and your patience!
