you're a hero for making this new thread bro, hope the previous one gets archived encase it gets deleted. Speaking of which, the one that was deleted, does anyone have a snapshot? Or was it archived formally? FUCK whoever deleted that one thread. Such an immature move, like I get the bakers had a lot of info that they could have minimized in the intros but to just delete a thread like that? Fuckin hell man.

Also, the thread wasn't targeted, the OP of that thread was banned, causing all his posts to be deleted, including all the threads he made.
It was never about the thread's subject, but about who made it.
And now the CAPTCHA is reverse mocking me.
Figures if it had 7 letters the next two ones would have been 0R

>the next two ones would have been 0R
So close.

>>40722232
Ah, I understand now, thanks for clarifying. I had no idea. Good to know it wasn't targeted, because I love roy jay threads. I gotta be honest dude this roy jay stuff is the first seemingly real spooky shit I've stumbled across since, well, years and years ago. I can count on one hand the spooky things I've come across. I don't think he's a demon, I'm in the AI camp but whether he's AI or a demon BOTH are spooky and have crazy implications. The fact this stuff hasn't died down in the months that it was posted proves there's at least something to this. At least to me.

Good morning fellow relaxed anons

I've never heard of it before

New Roysidue

>>40723469
The post is new, but that's the image of the magazine from a few threads back. The one that was almost identical to a stock photo.

>>40722070 (OP)
Anyone find curious how every video from him goes the exactly same way? The presenter introduces him, he comes, full set, claps. Usually, with old artists, the recordings are fragmentary: sometimes it's just a part, starting from nowhere, or it doesn't really end, the quality is inconsistent etc. His videos follow the same structure of modern talk show uploads.

>>40723556
My apologies. I don't recall seeing that one.

>>40722232
>>40722280
banned baker here, do you guys want me to keep going with the old format or shall I pass the torch? I was going to make a new thread today but I see you already did

>>40723944
Not OP here, but maybe that is a good idea. This thread is pretty cryptic, one that could be searched for could be better.

I post this on every thread.

>>40723469
weirdly like the Roy ghost picture

>>40723028
Yeah, it's a famous newspaper comic strip.
I hated it because characters had "heavy accents", which meant all their dialogues were fucked up and hard to read, and they didn't even sound like accents in my head, they just talked like retards.
Watch out for Snuffy Smith.

>>40723944
I'd like if new thread's OPs were shortened and gave a sense of mystery, a sense of "we don't know what's going on" (which we don't) instead of "to know what's going on you need to read all this material" followed by a bunch of links.
Perhaps rotate the explanation, next one Roy's sold like a time travelling demon, next it's a rogue AI, next it's a google psyop to see if they can make us believe he existed, next we can revive the retrocausation (the future is manifesting the past to justify its existence, and Roy Jay had to be created to justify these threads that now exist) and antihauntology which was the concept that carried us out for 7 entire threads.
I dunno, I loved the first threads because of the mysterious simplicity, and because Roy was experienced, not told what was it about, we can rotate all things, really.

>>40726310
No, that one doesn't have the "candy floss" part or the "I'm a travelling man" part.
Totally different song.

>>40726310
Well yes, it is a covers album.

>>40725633
Where was it famous, anon?

>>40725109
The hand doesn't belong to Roy
But we already know AI doesn't do well with hands

>>40725671
>>40725671
We all do realize that this conversation we're having IS the mechanism that is bringing about whatever it is you're talking about?

>>40727364
Yes, but I found this in the vintage photo website from where one stack of roysidue came, the same website that doesn't take orders right now.

>>40727360
The somethingawful forums.
You had to be there, so many hilarious comic edits that was the most hilarious thing on the internet back then! I even made my own edits based on their comments, like picrel.
Then everything was lost when Waffleimages died, and then I spent days backing up 600 pages of the last thread in the wayback machine, because you never know if an image host would die.
But for the stated reasons I always skipped Google and Snuffy Smith, a torture to read it.

>>40728244
You're sounding like those YouTube boomer bots

Roy's pose reminds me of the rampant attitude in heraldry, picrel (a rampant lion).
>2.
>Heraldry
>(of an animal) represented standing on one hind foot with its forefeet in the air (typically in profile, facing the dexter side, with right hind foot and tail raised).
>"two gold lions rampant"
There's another meaning of rampant, however.
>adjective
>1.(especially of something unwelcome) flourishing or spreading unchecked.
"political violence was rampant"

Hi weirdos! Any new routines? Demon or real, I can't get enough of him.

There is a conversation at the end of this thread that is... Weird. Look at the image. Now look at this tweet, from a guy of the podcast https://x.com/TheCheapShowPod/status/1940128506895090137
The Vinyl is the same, the written words, everything! But the shoes aren't.
>But the shoes aren't.

https://www.cookdandbombd.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=84610.300
This is the thread. They start talking about "Roy's book" all of a sudden.

>>40731682
What gets me is that the album uses the same image twice, but the shoes are a different color in each picture

>>40731682
The shoes look the same to me

>>40731759
The ones on the right Roy look bluer to me in the thread. In any case they're supposed to be the same vinyl.

>>40731759
>>40731713
Just post the pic, i can't access the thread please.

>>40731832

>>40731846
Might just be the lighting

>>40731846
That or uv fading. If one was in a cabinet and the other was just lying on a table or on display in a room with a window that could wash out the colors.

>>40731682
>The world is a pickle
Hmmm...

>>40731703
I remember listening to tat cheap show podcast or whatever it's called just because they mentioned roy jay at one point and someone linked the episode in the thread.

Holy FUCK cheapshow is a shit podcast, one of the worst listens I ever had to slog through.

Oh and that onions boy posting the "proof" looks EXACTLY like I imagined him to look holy fuck. What zero testosterone does to a mfer

>>40732949
S O Y boi, not onions boy. Fuck 4chan honestly. Fucking censorship.

>>40728658
Okay, let mew change my answer:
Barney Google and Snuffy Smith is a famous newspaper comic strip because it's still in publication and read by hundreds of people daily:
https://www.seattletimes.com/comics-king/?feature_id=barney-google-and-snuffy-smith
That's today's issue. On the page you can read previous issues from yesterday and the last week.
I guess, because I refuse to look at it because it's the bottom of the barrel when it comes to comics.

>>40731920
>>40732455
Looking at them one next to the other, I think the shoes clearly change color while the rest colors remain similar.
>>40735329
Interesting.

>>40732949
do you mean this?
https://www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-407-talk-to-us

>>40736768
At 9:00 in that podcast they talk about Roy, seemingly out of the blue. They talk for less than a minute, yet they link the Spookin' Down the Street video under the episode, which they misquote as Spookin' Down the Road, by the way.
Maybe they mention him later too.

So that vynil would be the origin of this pic too, look at the price tag.

>>40722070 (OP)
What the hell. I keep hiding this thread and it keeps showing up. HOW IS THIS /x/?

>>40736768
yes, this is the one. Fuckin hard to lisen to it's so boring and stupid and full of S O Y lol

>>40736943
the shoes look straight up black here, whereas they look blue in other pics, and I think there's even a third color people remember the shoes being, red perhaps? Very strange, did anyone else notice? Why do the shoes have such inconsistent color?

>>40736886
that anon is wrong
cheap show were first to do something about the roy rumors and his record
https://www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-122-the-ballad-of-roy-jay
they mention a story of him faking his own death that i cant find any other mention of
i think they made it up

So they didn't mention Roy Jay in almost 200 episodes, between 122 and 407?

>>40738599
these are the only posted ones
there might be more

>>40739064
BEST LISTEN TO EVERY SINGLE EPISODE THEN
report back

>>40741132
>>40739064
lol exactly! Somebody has to take one for the team and slog through hundreds of episodes of this shitty podcast. WHich one of you brave heroes will it be?

Seriously, whoever takes this on is a HERO in my book. Do it while playing vidya or working out or whatever.

>>40741589
I already watched that disney show someone else gotta do this podcast

>>40741589
they must be connected to the april 4th thread somehow

>>40741641
wait what's that all about? was there some kind of mystery surrounding some old disney show? I'm really curious now.

>>40741941
Disney channel show from 2015 called "Best Friends Whenever", it has two actors who are twins and their last names IRL is "Royer" and it's set in Portland Oregon, which happens to be where the original Roy wiki article's creator's IP came from. Show also is about time manipulation (something Roy does) and features that demon clown in the first episode as that anon posted. I've seen it all before I even knew about Roy and I remembered it was in Portland so I brought it up in one of the early threads.

>>40741132
>>40741589
Lmao this sounds like some MK-Ultra type torture. I have still to finish the last half hour of episode 407, and it feels like a chore.

This whole things reminds me of the same type of spam on /b/ currently

>I think the shoes clearly change color while the rest colors remain
Do I have to explain it again?
The photo was taken, what is behind on the vinyl is an accurate representation of them.
When they wanted to put the same picture as the cover of the vinyl, they noticed it didn't "pop out", so they brought it someone to fix that.
This person increased the contrast, crushed the blacks, and fixed Roy's skin color by pushing the reds, and they were happy that now it pops out (enough to be some anon's favorite to ask for a cutout) but the original colors were destroyed (light yellow pajamas, orange skin, and blueish grey shoes) in a way that can't be recovered because it's like trying to "uncompress" a song that has been made louder by killing its dynamic range.
Light grey tones in the pic actually look pink now, you can check with a color picker, they look light grey because your brain knows it's a color temperature that makes them looks like that and compensate.
On picrel both cans are the same color but your brain sees them red or blue.

>>40742130
But we were comparing two pictures of the back, anon.

>>40737862
Yeah I've seen slightly brown/red versions.

>>40741985
woah that's freaky, now I want to watch this show. What episode would you say is the weirdest or most relevant to our discussion? Or rather name me a few eps that stand out. If it's ot too much to ask.

I know one thing, watching this show would be SOOOO much better than listening to that shit podcast LMFAO

>>40741985
Also that black dude named Roy Jay was a businessman and aspiring politician in Portland

>>40742536
>What episode would you say is the weirdest or most relevant to our discussion
Theyre short and all pretty weird honestly, that demon clown picture literally shows up in the first five minutes of the first episode. Might as well watch them in order if youre going to watch the show, the episodes are short anyway.

bump

you'll all be doing it tomorrow

>>40745727
its over sir

>>40747374
It's only just begun.

>>40741985
Why the actual fuck would you possibly know that?

>>40747475
its done

>>40747906
I wouldn't say it's done. I think the lack of new Roysidue has just caused activity to slow down.

>>40742504
Oh, they have the same color. One has the top of picrel as white point, the other has the bottom as white point, that's all.
What is funny is that we're seeing the Roy version of the blue and golden dress, if you had the vinyl at home you could reproduce the effect switching from a white led bulb to an incandescent one to switch white points.
The shoes look different because of different contrast, high contrast make them look blacker.

>>40747475
The fuck is this? Anon provided us with the animated version and you post the static one?

>>40747906
And yet the thread persists

>>40748635
Sure.

>>40748745
its hanging on for dear life

>>40748745
>>40749542
Bumpity bump bump

Spook!

are we roydeeming today weirdos?

>>40750954
I hope so. I have a raging eROYction and the only thing that can make me Spook! is new Roysidue.
