     Moreover, by [[artist:rachel-rose-mitchell|Rachel Rose Mitchell's]] own request, around December 22, 2021, the *new* version of this track, as well as [[track:temporal-shenanigans]], were both removed from Bandcamp (the only platform where Homestuck's discography was officially published). This was in light of Sarah Z's video [Homestuck Sent Me A Legal Threat, And Then It Got Worse](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsM9bQvpt_c); on YouTube, Rachel updated the thumbnails, titles, and descriptions of Indigo Archer and Temporal Shenanigans to direct visitors to Sarah Z's video.

     As included in <code>LYRICS_ETC_A.txt</code> before the plagiarized tracks were removed and replaced, for Indigo Archer and Purple Tyrant respectively, the contest-submitted names were "Mechani% of the Void" and "An Invincible Demon". Indigo Archer was "written" for Equius, and Purple Tyrant was "written" for Lord English.

     The original tracks 10 and 11 were almost identical copies of tracks on Frozen Synapse Original Soundtrack. Indigo Archer sounds like ["Switch"](https://nervoustestpilot.bandcamp.com/track/switch) and Purple Tyrant sounds like ["A Functioning God"](https://nervoustestpilot.bandcamp.com/track/a-functioning-god).
 
     <b>How similar are the tracks exactly?</b> They are the same length and sound identical. Audacity or a similar program can be used to invert one of the Frozen Synapse tracks and to try to find out how a copied track was edited. The parts which are exactly the same will turn into silence. Using this method and adding an amplify effect with a value of -1.363 dB to the original Frozen Synapse tracks (or +1.363 dB to the copies), the end result is as follows: in both Indigo Archer and Purple Tyrant the only sounds which were left are electric cracks and creaks. They appear mostly rhythmically with the bassline of the beats. Probably the only part where the added creaking can be clearly heard without having to do editing is in the Purple Tyrant track at 2:30. Elsewhere the the cracks are lost in the beats.
