The Disappearance of Wood Man - A SiIvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis Side Story

"The Disappearance of Wood Man - A SiIvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis Side Story" (previously titled "??? [FILE-17] - Haltmann's Archives"Tweet by @InstRipInfoSys; February 1, 2023.) is a high quality lore video and a side story for The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis.
== Summary ==
The video is initially formatted like all videos starting with "Termination [FILE-02]". An excerpt from the thoughts of an unknown individual is presented, in which they reminisce about overseeing SiIvaGunner, which has been running for seven years, by observing the dreams of SiIvaGunner himself, initially to fulfill their master's bidding.
At 0:38, however, the video abruptly exits the Haltmann's Archives format and the individual is revealed to be Wood Man, speaking in the format of The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis episodes. He monologues about the torment of being stuck in a time loop for seven years and his need to find a "magic solution" to end it, saying that he has had fun spending time in other universes, but feels guilt over putting off his vow to save his friends from the purgatory of the main universe, especially Robbie Rotten. He states that he fears what his friends may think of him after so long, and wishes to step away from SiIvaGunner to "have a good, long think" about how to find this "magic solution". The video ends with two title cards, the first reading "The Disappearance of Wood Man" and the second declaring the end of Season 6.

==Trivia==
*Despite initially being labeled the seventeenth file, it was chronologically released after "Channel Hosts and Takeovers [FILE-15]". The sixteenth file was previously known to exist, however, as it was mentioned in "Retrospective [FILE-14]", and would later be uploaded as "[[Garlic-Flavored Tacos (FILE-16) - Haltmann's Archives|Garlic-Flavored Tacos [FILE-16]]]".
*Wood Man's mention of Bill Murray is a reference to the 1993 film Groundhog Day.
**This may be an allusion to the Groundhog Day channel event from 2017.
**Notably, Groundhog Day occurs on February 2, the day after this video was uploaded.
*Similarly to "Retrospective [FILE-14] - Haltmann's Archives", the length of the time loop is stated to be seven years, matching the time since the start of SiIvaGunner in 2016, rather than the statement in "Wood Man & Robbie Rotten - A SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis Side Story" that President Haltmann created the time loop during his takeover in 2017.
*The statement "i can't keep talking in this file-ass format" implies that Wood Man may have had some involvement in previous Haltmann's Archives videos.
