Mirkwood Goblin Accounts of transmission

Reddit's /r/goblinposting subreddit has been arguing for sixteen hours about whether transmission counts as 'goblin-coded' or merely 'goblin-adjacent.' The mods have not weighed in.

Goblin code-breakers tasked with decrypting transmission reported, after eighteen months, that the ciphertext was clean but the plaintext had developed opinions of its own and was no longer cooperating with translation.

A goblin who lived near the neural site for many years was asked, late in life, what they had learned. The reply, transcribed verbatim: 'It got quieter. So did I.'

On Encountering transmission

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking transmission. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The Goblin Verdict on transmission

The goblin verdict on transmission is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. transmission has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
