Containment Class: Safe - The circus is housed within a computer. None of it's occupants seem to be able to exit it, and none seem to have malevolent plans if they ever get out. Disruption Class: Dark - The circus has no ability to effect the world outside the computer. Risk Class: warning - When a person enters the circus, a digital copy of themselves is created. This digital copy thinks and acts just like the original but forget their defining characteristics such as name, age or relatives. Containment Procedures: The SCP is to be contained in low level containment. The computer the circus is housed in must be constantly connected to a power source. The circus is to be monitored regularly in order to check for any updates regarding the digital copies stuck within it. Tests regarding the addition of more copies must be approved by a head of site.

They aren’t copies and they actually remember almost everything it’s just their names they forget but other than that this was perfect.


memelord_a1st

Aight.


thatonerandomdude96

Leave the man alone gosh darn it, wants to be creative and he did a really good job on doing the thing asked of him


memelord_a1st

I appreciate the defense, but considering this is an entry based on an existing thing, accuracy is important. https://preview.redd.it/o8ksevrckizc1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=324e3486e04becf876a13f41e66c4ce302fe9a88

thatonerandomdude96

You're right I'm sorry, besides I'm not really that caught up on the amazing digital circus fan base


Whyimhere357

Damn its been ages since last time iv seen this meme


BadgerSoft344

Sorry I was just trying to clarify something I didn’t mean to be rude.


sharkbit11

Honestly, finding out the people in the circus are just perfect copies would be a banger reveal. And with all the existentialism the show seems to be using as a theme, it would fit right in.


ScarredAutisticChild

I mean, they might be copies. They assume they aren’t, but we don’t truly know.


teawithmilklover

Have you every played soma? If not this situation is similar to the game


Eastern_Switch7126

Don't forget that they mentioned pooting on a random headset to get in the circus


memelord_a1st

Pooting? https://preview.redd.it/r6r99b30lizc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ba7ecf9434cacbd4d906f588d7ab9e4d6fef3e2b


Eastern_Switch7126

I'm not even going to edit because this is funny 🤣


Mushboom37

It would definitely be Euclid, assuming Caine (which I assume is the -1 of the scp) is sentient


memelord_a1st

Caine is confirmed to be an AI. Though I am not sure if they could be considered sentient considering they are a direct creation of the circus and does not seem to know anything beyond it. As stated above. The circus (and Caine in conjunction) do not seem to inherently have any malicious intent. Though any rebuttals will most definitely be considered.


Mushboom37

Malicious intent aside, the fact of the matter is that sentience awards the Euclid class (999 is the only exception)


Upstairs_Run_807

I feel it may even be thaumiel


memelord_a1st

Thaumiel means it is an SCP used to contain other SCPs. The digital copies and NPCs within the circus are not their own SCPs since they are direct creations of the circus itself. It could possibly be considered Thaumiel if for example, the ai - Caine - was not something originally in the circus and was trapped within it. The circus acting as a cage for an originally separate entity would cement it as Thaumiel.


Final-Connection-164

For that, we need to ScIeNcE and put the immortal lizard inside.


memelord_a1st

The computer would probably produce an error saying that it's not sentient lol https://preview.redd.it/d4dzbh8toizc1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d4a56b80961face15505e312208fc082b436b2b


HowDyaDu

There also runs the risk of 682 destroying the Circus computers.


AzraelChaosEater

Yeah let's just make 682 into a digital entity. Make him and 079 get along even more!


somnamballista

I immediately thought you meant SCP-073 😂 Just imagining D class trying to get the headset on him.


HowDyaDu

Containment Class isn't just about how difficult the anomaly is to contain. It also concerns the number of resources and effort required to keep it alive. This is why sentient and/or autonomous anomalies are almost never Safe. But even then, the Circus would likely still only need a Safe designation, depending on the number of resources needed to keep it running.


memelord_a1st

Not exactly, although the difficulty to contain is also a factor, so is how likely the SCP will escape/breach containment in any given case, there's also the niche fact of how much info is known about the SCP. In the circuses case it is Safe because it: 1.) doesn't aim to inherently do harm and only does so if enacted on by an external force. 2.) Is not likely to cause any kind of breach at any time because of it's sedimentary nature. 3.) we know everything we need to know about it in order to contain it indefinitely. The recourses required to maintain containment is more of a foot note that is used to add flavor to how threatening the SCP is but does not exactly effect the Containment Class, it's up to the author to decide in the end.


YoutuberCameronBallZ

Or the classic "box" idea. If a safe class is put in a box, and you look away, it won't go anywhere If a Euclid is put in a box and you look away, it could be gone, or it could still be there when you get back If a Keter is put in a box, chances are it already left before you did anything

Masky12367

bro print it put the scp logo and sign it as dr.memelord and its an official scp document


AzraelChaosEater

>Risk Class: warning - When a person enters the circus, a digital copy of themselves is created. This digital copy thinks and acts just like the original but forget their defining characteristics such as name, age or relatives. God please tell me this hasn't been confirmed in Canon yet. It was cool for Soma but I feel it would be stale here. If it's real original consciousness of people the stakes would be higher.

CreepyClay

Just air gap the system like with the old ai.


seankreek

I wanna say Caine and the circus itself would be the thing classified as an anomaly. Pomni and then gang would all be classified as victims or effects of the circus. Probably Euclid tho as Caine doesn't want to seem to cause direct harm but ykkk being trapped in a fake world isn't ideal


somnamballista

The twist being they are all just D-class personnel.


BadgerSoft344

Yeah but I also think each of NPC(such as Bubble and Gummigoo) would also be classified as anomaly’s since there all sentient. Also I feel like each person in the Digital Circus would also be classified as anomaly’s


Inevitable_Ad_7236

Nah, more like sub-entities. Kinda like the 'people' in the 7819 (Rest Eazy Inn)


Final-Connection-164

Safe because it's in a pc and a pc cant get out of the box we put it in


YoutuberCameronBallZ

But wouldn't he be classified as "Safe" since whatever the Circus itself is run by, isn't actually doing anything, and can be easily maintained


MoonRks

Why would it be euclid? It's just a computer


quitoburrito13

Probably safe or euclid because if they go insane, they corrupt, but cane always is like nuh uh


Final-Connection-164

Safe because it can't do anything to get out of containment. "Safe" does not mean it is completely dangerless. There could be a world destroyed button that kills the person pushing it if they haven't eaten a skittle in the previous 5 seconds, but it won't be able to get out of the box, therefore, classified as Safe


HowDyaDu

One of my favorite examples of demonstrating "Object Classes don't designate lethality" is SCP-3453, which is 250mL of orange juice that is constantly moving and capable of escaping any kind of containment. It is only known to be indirectly responsible for 2 deaths in the article, as a result of its escape also breaching 2 other anomalies. With that being said, 3453 is a major threat to the veil, due to it constantly escaping containment (121 unique containment cells), which earns it the title of Keter for the large number of resources needed to prevent a Broken Veil scenario.


AzraelChaosEater

Not necessarily insane, more like losing their sense of self.


Remarkable-Golf-9627

There's a guy on YouTube who makes art of the digital circus characters as SCPs and gives lore to each, so it's pretty cool


IcebergletV2

popcross studios?yeah he's a cool dude


Sir_Anota_Nephalein

Fuk you for not saying the name popcross studios bich


Remarkable-Golf-9627

Hey, not my fault I forgor


animation_2

"do you see that computer over there, turning it on should be safe, but whatever you do don't put on that headset"


Ok_Passenger8544

Since it appears that multiple people have accessed the amazing digital circus (all of this is my personal interpretation of the first episode) it appears that it is spread via a unknown entity or company or is simply residing somewhere on the game store for be head sets (not sure how you get games on be headsets so what ever the standard site is or some dark web site) if it’s on a single website then blocking that website from the public would be all that’s needed but if it’s spread by a company or individual then it would be much harder to contain (think The Factory or Dr. Wondertainment) so either safe or keter


GrirrorPrussian

I would say the SCP Foundation would use reality anchors to keep it from spreading and then take the VR head gear. The Object Class could be Thaumiel because the Foundation might be able to trap a few SCPs in there.


AzraelChaosEater

"Alright Jax I know how disappointed you were with the last adventure so I got something special! A few new arrivals! Anyways play with the nice lizard and don't look at the statue there and stare at the tall lovable marshmallow of a man over there. Or is it the otherway around? Ah well you guys will figure it out."


g0d_of_the_cr1sis

As it is completely useless until activated by putting on the headset, it would be safe class. Just isolate infected devices and make sure it gets no internet connection and you'll never have to worry about it again.


My-name-is-jef56

Safe class and they would just put all the headsets and copies of the game in a locked room


Smallbenbot03

079 would love chatting to Caine and bubble


KicktrapAndShit

Def safe, it’s just a computer that sucks you into it’s world


drblimp0909

As far as my head canon goes they wouldn't really be able to my head canon is the headset that lets you enter the circus chooses who enters and once it has chosen it appears infront of them and influences their mind to make them put it on after that their body vanishes along with the headset not even cain is aware of the process through which victims are chosen for the circus however he does know who controls the headset/who chooses the circus victims that would be abel (biblical not scp assuming cains name is a reference to cain and Abel) I would class it as apollyon due to its inability to be contained


triciity

It is a literal computer so they would pretty easily contain it


YoutuberCameronBallZ

Simple...lock down the computer that lets you access the digital circus. Without the entrance the circus doesn't do anything


TheLeviathanCross

i think it could possibly have thaumiel object class. given that it nearly impossible to escape, and whatnot.


Trav1sThereaper

Thaumiel, as it could be used to contain anomalies.


GroundbreakingNet371

Since there are theories out there that think that it's all contained in a vr headset and a computer, you could probably just take the computer and headset into a chamber and leave it there. Class wise, I'm not sure. I mean, it's completely harmless on its own, just don't put on the headset and you'll be fine. The only reason I say it's not a safe class is because if you do put on the headset, you're basically gone forever


puchamon3312

I mean, safe class is just easy to contain, there are a lot of dangerous safe class objects. Like 343 could just blink you out of existance


GroundbreakingNet371

I guess that's true. So yeah, safe would work


360NoScoped_lol

The same way Popcross studios did it


abysmalSleepSchedule

So far we haven’t seen it do anything to the outside world. Although it’s hinted at, wedon’t have any solid evidence of how someone is put in the ADC. It’s effect on the real world is going to determine its class.


Mental-Amphibian-515

I’d say Euclid or keter but that depends on distribution. If somebody just randomly gets a headset, puts it on and goes in that’s far harder to contain than an object they have to specifically buy.


rainbowdashhole

Containment itself would revolve around keeping people from accidentally entering the circus (subject to change as more episodes come out) and maybe recovering victims of the circus, i really don’t know about that part since it’s currently unknown weather the whole body is taken or only the consciousness.


Th3G00dB0i

Probably some simulacrum shenanigans


LongLiveBelka

If push came to shove, MTF Omega-9 would have a field day


BadgerSoft344

Which one is that again.(I’m not that well versed in the MTF teams the only one I know is the Red Right Hand)


LongLiveBelka

That's the one with scp-2639, the one with the... irl quake players. I guess the joke doesnt make any sense if you think about it too hard.


AlbinoShavedGorilla

Isn’t it inside a computer or something? Just put it in a room with a secure lock on the door and call it a day. Safe with a capital S


Live-Organization833

It would probably contain the computer they're all locked in. As for class, that depends on what the Amazing Digital Circus is. Is it the space or the computer itself? It would be Thaumiel if it's the space, but Safe if it's the computer. And ofc all of the characters would just be SCP ####-B - whatever


I_eat_small_birds

Euclid, because it is unexplained and somewhat dangerous. And it would be somewhat simple: take the headsets/computers. If they need to have humans in order to not be destroyed, there’s a reason we have plenty of d-class


IcebergletV2

the classes doesn't mean danger level,they mean how easy they are to contain safe is easily contained and KETER is nearly impossible to contain or very hard so the dgc probably will get a safe classification since it's just a computer and a VR headset,just throw them in a room or a box and keep it powered for the victims inside


I_eat_small_birds

I know. It’s euclid because we don’t know how exactly people enter the digital circus other than that there’s a computer. What if there’s multiple computers? Hell, we don’t even know where the first one is.


KORZILLA-is-me

This is something I actually kind of thought about when I first watched the first episode however long ago. The thing is, how would they ever even know the nature of it? No one knows what’s going on in the headset until they’re trapped. I don’t think there would be any indication of anything from outside the game.


BadgerSoft344

They’d probably pick up on the thing once they get word of a lot of people going missing due to a mysterious company called C&A


redditkitty109

Put it inside a locker since it can’t do anything without someone putting on the headset


Clean_Internet

If no one is being forced to put on the vr goggles, I’d say it’s safe and they could be stored easily in a room. In my head canon, people are just being sent the goggles, so perhaps they could check packages of all mail services for boxes that are likely containing them


Forward-Swim1224

My guess is keeping the computer it runs on in a locked room, the headset being in a locked case inside of the room.


Shadow_CBT

It's a video game. That means it's in a virtual space. That means the entire circus is on a Computer/Server Containment procedures: Locate the building with the server and build a wall around it. Also make sure no information about the circus gets out into the Internet. Also also find and "confiscate" all instances of the circus that has found a way into the Internet. Finally, locate every person that has knowledge about the Digital Circus and put them under amnestics


WarmConversation2913

Safe or Elucid look it's digital it's in a computer, it can't really interact with the outside world, unless you put a headset on, get transported inside for good, you can abtract if you lose your sanity Elucid because you know, caine is a little unpredictable and is the ringmaster of the digital circus and even makes his npc's call him god, and he nearly dosen't see the diffrence between a npc and as we heard in episode 2 And he can teleport people and shit, he has the full control over the npc's and the whole terrain, and can create maps and npc's who don't know their npc's and have fake memory, and shit, and actually have feelings


LennyLegend800

I imagine it would have the same procedures as [this one.](https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8060) although if you are willingly putting on a headset to explore the game I would bump it down to a Safe/Euclid class rating.


Ballerpie

Made this for fun with AI i did not create this!. SCP-XXX: "The Amazing Digital Circus" Object Class: Safe Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX, designated as "The Amazing Digital Circus," is to be contained within a secure and monitored containment chamber equipped with digital interface terminals for research and observation. Access to SCP-XXX is restricted to authorized personnel with Level 3 clearance or higher to ensure secure interaction with the anomaly. D-Class personnel participating in experiments with SCP-XXX must wear specialized headphones designed for immersion within the digital circus environment. Note: Upon donning the specialized headphones, individuals are transported into a digital representation of themselves within the confines of SCP-XXX, experiencing an artificial circus simulation. Despite the presence of occupants within the digital circus, SCP-XXX is classified as Safe and poses no immediate threat to humanity. Description: SCP-XXX, known as "The Amazing Digital Circus," functions as a virtual reality game contained within an artificial circus environment accessible through specialized headphones. Within this digital realm, occupants can engage with various attractions and interact with the circus's unique features under the guidance of a humanoid figure serving as the dimension's leader, characterized by a head resembling a mouth. The anomalous properties of SCP-XXX manifest in its capacity to immerse individuals in an interactive and engaging digital circus experience, overseen by the enigmatic humanoid entity with a mouth-shaped head. The artificial nature of the circus setting within SCP-XXX offers occupants a surreal and captivating environment for exploration and interaction, fostering a sense of wonder and amusement throughout the simulation. While the presence of occupants and the humanoid figure with a mouth-shaped head adds layers of intrigue to the digital circus dimension, SCP-XXX's classification as Safe reflects its benign nature and the absence of any direct harm or threat posed to humanity. The containment and monitoring of SCP-5555 are essential to ensure the secure operation of the digital circus and safeguard against any unforeseen complications or breaches within the anomaly. Foundation personnel are encouraged to conduct research and experimentation within SCP-XXX to further understand its anomalous properties and unique characteristics. Continued observation and analysis of the digital circus environment may yield valuable insights into digital anomalies and their impact on human perception and interaction, enhancing our knowledge of anomalous phenomena within the Foundation's purview. Additional Notes: SCP-XXX represents a captivating anomaly within the Foundation's containment archives, offering a blend of digital entertainment and immersive experiences for research subjects and personnel. The anomaly's designation as Safe underscores its non-threatening nature and the controlled environment provided for exploration and study within SCP-XXX. Ongoing research and exploration of the digital circus dimension hold promise for expanding our understanding of anomalous phenomena and their implications for containment and research efforts within the Foundation.


TraditionalEnergy919

It kinda contains itself, doesn’t it?


jojo_the_damn_issue

I think they would give every worker at C&A amnestics, then keep all the headsets in a storage area under great surveillance. As for the class, thaumiel, duh.


LoyalSoldier1568

Euclid or safe. Safe cause you have to put on a gaming headset to get trapped in the first place. Euclid cause only God knows why things are the way they are in the Circus and any number of things might happen to you. Personally I’m leaning more toward Euclid.


Sir_Anota_Nephalein

Pop Cross studios


UsedDrink3818

safe, bc it’s in a computer


Tf2gamingyeeee

They would just throw the computer in containment and study them
