== Name Meaning ==
"Cookie Clicker" is the name used to refer to the WYSI multiverse, which is created by Greg. This name is used due to the original concept of Cookie clicker, where Napoleon would be able to live the events of WYSI faster and faster, like in the game of the same name. In the game Cookie clicker, you restart all your progress to be able to do it all faster again, hence why each "universe" of the multiverse is called a "reset." The original story is referred to as the "first reset."
== Explanation ==
=== Concept ===
In WYSI, the multiverse works very differently to most common depictions. In most depictions, the other universes coexist at the same time. In WYSI, there is only one reset at time, and the next reset only begins when the previous one ends. These resets are usually almost identical to the first reset, usually beginning just before Tord enters The Old Folk's Home in Act 2. However, sometimes Greg will create a custom made reset. This explains things such as 'AUs' where the main characters have swapped genders, personalities, situations, ect. This also explains resets which follow the plots of real world medias, or are themed around a real world media (such as a Wall-e AU or an AU that is simply a game of among us). In these resets, almost none of the characters remember any events from previous resets, and their memories up until the point of the reset's beginning are implanted (like the common thought problem of 'last thursday-ism', where it is believed that the universe began last Thursday and all past events were fabricated at this point.) The only exceptions to this rule are Napoleon and Robotnick, who both remember all previous resets. 
=== The End of a Reset ===
A reset can theoretically end whenever Greg chooses, but virtually every time a reset ends it is because Bodil or Trog have died. When this happens, the universe will reset, and a new reset will begin. Because they are both hard to kill, resets can often last hundreds of years. Sometimes, however, a reset can end whenever Greg deems it would be funny. When Bodil dies, Trog will also die, and vice versa, and when this happens the earth will shake for about 10 seconds, and Napoleon will wake back up at the Old folks home (if it is a standard reset) and Robotnick will wake up wherever he was during that chapter in Act 2.
== Notable AUs ==
* Bodil 666: This AU follows the plot of Devilman Crybaby, wherein Bodil follows the role of Ryo, and Yannytord follows the role of Akira. This reset ends when the show does with the extinction of all life on earth.
* Among us AU: This is a strangly common Au in which Greg makes the major WYSI characters play a game of among us 'in real life.' This is one of Napoleon's least favorite Aus.
* Swap Au: In this Au, the character's personalities are swapped. For instance, Trog and Bodil would swap personalities, so that Trog would be a good person who is goofy and carefree, and Bodil would be a pathetic, vile sack of a man.
* Hockey AU: In this Au, the main 8 are on their own hockey team (the windsor bricks), with Yannytord as the captain, Tit and Bwah as goalies, Martha, Bodil and Strange as other players and Trog as the mascot and Napoleon as the coach.
* Feet AU: This AU is the same as the first reset, but Yannytord has an obsession with Martha's feet.
* Girlboss Au: This is an Au where all the character's genders are swapped.
* Mechanical hands: In this AU, Yannytord loses his mind upon becoming king due to various reasons, and as a result takes over the world, thus becoming the 'ruler of everything'. The AU's name is a reference to the song 'Ruler of Everything' by Tallyhall, in which they sing the line "You understand mechanical hands Are the ruler of everything (ah) Ruler of everything (ah) I'm the ruler of everything In the end"
* Insane Bodil AU: This AU takes place a long time after the first, in which Bodil and Trog remember all previous AU's and attempt to stop Cookie Clicker once and for all by trying to kill their father. They are impeded by Napoleon and Robotnick, who wish to keep the universe in tact.
