He had returned to YWOT a few months earlier, though he was only active there for a short while before disappearing once more. He explained that he was inactive for most of 2025 because he had lost compute access from moving house.

=== Digital clock ===
'''''<small>*Apparently not by Mr. Black, though it's staying on this page for the time being.</small>'''''
A digital clock which told time in UTC appeared on YWOT on January 21st, 2026, and showed up on OWOT not too long after. Over the next few days, these clocks would run on both sites almost constantly, receiving cosmetic updates every now and then. On YWOT, the clock received backlash for lagging the site, while on OWOT people wanted it removed for taking up over half of the [[Center Console|Square of Publicity]].
The clock was removed by FP on January 31st, 2026, to the celebration of many users (including Mr. Black). See [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvcQC6qiZms here] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQWQ5L_4rc4 here] for footage from that day.<gallery widths="210" heights="210" mode="packed">

'''''<small>*Confirmed to have been made by Mr. Black on January 25th, 2026, in the same message where he disowned the digital clock.</small>'''''
Inspired by [[SOP Clock|another clock script]].


An animated analog clock would sporadically spawn on both OWOT and YWOT starting from January 21st, 2026.
