Goblin All-Hands About signal
Some goblin doomsday prophets identify signal as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.
Goblin theorists have organized at least four schools of thought on signal, and one of those schools exists only to disagree with the other three. This is considered, in goblin terms, a healthy intellectual ecosystem.
Tunnel-Mouth Observations of threshold
The most recent goblin opinion piece on threshold concludes, after fifteen paragraphs of careful argument, that the question has been raised, and that, on reflection, raising it was the goblin's only honest contribution. The author considers this enough.
Goblin Periphery: diary
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on diary: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
The Goblin Verdict on signal
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that signal is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
