Server outages. Witch hunts for /u/powerlanguage. 1s all over. A false end to the button, giving us a preview of what is to come. Chaos, death, and so much redshed. We were right - the time of the Reds is truly an apocalypse. We called it, we were right, and we hold the most valued flair of all - the lowest one free of the stains of the last week.

*EDIT: A BIG WELCOME TO THOSE FIRST FEW TO ATTAIN THE ORANGE FLAIR! YOU ARE THE VANGUARD OF THE REVOLUTION! )

I've noticed that the number of subscribers to /r/orangerevolution are increasing steadily. Welcome one and all!

Please choose your flair from the sidebar on the right - there are many to choose from, and they may reflect your Orange affiliation or current mood!

The Orange Revolution welcomes everyone, no matter their colour or creed, because Orange is a state of mind.

A Manifest-O is currently being written, which will be a guide to the Orange state of mind, but not a set of rules and regulations.

We stand for open-mindedness and acceptance, and while we acknowledge that the Red Apocalypse ahead will be a time of strife and turmoil for the whole of the Buttonworld, we know that together we can survive through it and make the transition beyond the Zero-point phenomenon into a glorious zesty future!

The future is Orange.

Orange is a state of Mind

EDIT: The first draft of the Manifest-O is now written, and can be viewed HERE. This is a work in progress.

The Emerald Council has taken notice of your stand for openness and acceptance; we ourselves stand by the same principles. With the advent of the first Oranges, we feel that the time has come to establish a formal embassy.

Please accept my request to be the ambassador of the Emerald Council to the Orange Revolution.

We are currently the rarest color. The remaining fools will join Red or perish in Grey. The end of the button must happen while our numbers are smaller than Red. The current threat is if all greys convert to colors, thereby the virgins will become the rarest.

It's almost been a year since The Button was unleashed upon the world on April Fools day 2015. How are you all, orange brethren? Have you been keeping it zesty?

There are rumblings afoot at r/ButtonAftermath, r/TheButton2016 and r/ButtonReunion

Personally, I don't think the original mods will simply create another Button, but I do think they have something else in mind. Will be interesting to see what happens!

• Orange is a state of mind

Well, the experiment is over, and I am prouder than ever that I pressed orange, as I would not have discovered this awesome sub. Thanks for being zesty, everyone, and keep clockworking!

Currently, it looks like it will be us or yellow, and I'd much rather it be us. How we go about that, I have no idea. We currently are, according to the population ratio, so remaining the rarest is the goal here.

it will be so common for people to have been red that orange will end up being rarer!

we also have the advantage of most likely not becoming a filthy purple, because nobody will be trying for orange but us.

I learned of the button just two days ago, and since then I have contemplated where my allegiances lie. At first I thought I'll be a Redguard. Live life on the edge, go for that 1s press. Then I thought I want a number that means something to me and thought 59 as that was my number when I played football back in the day. I decided against that because I couldn't stand the thought of being washed away in an ocean of purple. Then I decided on the number 13, for it has significance in both a good and bad way. My birthday happens to be on the 13th of July, and it so happens that I lost my grandfather to cancer 8 years ago today, on April 13th, 2007. So here I am, branding myself the Thirteenth Pressident, ready to fight against the Red Apocalypse and bring valour and honour to The Revolution.
