Creepypasta Research + Logging

R/T. Ⅰ - Ages, Months, Time

I'm sure we've all seen the copy-paste stuff for the likelihood for experiencing creepypasta stuff based on your age, the month, and the time of day. If you haven't seen it, I'll paste it down below :

--

ages :
10 or younger
- likely death - useless
11 or 12
- likely death - will be watched occasionally
13-18
- can be killed - stalked
- from 14+ will be watched to see if skills are possible
19+
- likely death - useless

months :
january
- watch / observe
february
- watch new researchers
march
- people start to disappear
april
- harass researches - more disappear
may
- signals to stop
june
- may intensified - murders start
july
- the month of the purge
august
- kidnaps
september
- starts to slow - go for more well known people
october
- purge 2.0 - usually close to halloween
november
- cycle starts to come to an end
december
- restart of the cycle

times of the day :
morning
- 31% - can be bright, can be dark - roughly 50/50
noon
- 11% - easiest to be seen so they avoid
afternoon
- 47% - starts to get darker so they come out more
evening/night
- 85% - dark but some people are still awake
midnight / early hours

I believe why people experience more creepypasta stuff during late summer-early winter is because that's about when you get off school and go back. You go out more during summer break, leading you to experience more things -> experiencing more creepypasta things. Plus, the days grow shorter and the sun sets sooner - the sooner and longer the night, the more they're out. It's easier to watch and commit crimes in the dark, not many people are out and it's harder to see. As well, it starts to get colder, and even less people are out. They tend to avoid crowds and being caught, so of course they're going to be more active when it's harder to be noticed and not as many people are around.

I don't quite believe in the age theory thing. I don't think adults will be killed off - they can still be of value. Adults tend to be stronger, but less naive as a child or teen will be. Yes, I think tween/early teen years are the prime. They are easy to control, but they still have potential to successfully carry out commands. Plus, they aren't as afraid and weak as younger children. I personally think recruiting will start around 11/12 as opposed to 14 - 11/12 year old still have a lot of potential, and are even more naive and obedient than teens tend to be. Recruiting might taper off around 15 or 16, sure they're strong but people around that age are too rebellious and aren't likely to follow any command blindly. Plus, they have more experience and know not to trust people like the creepypastas.
