An effect that is present in many public relations campaigns involving polls or contests. The public, if presented with one, will vote for an option that is out of the ordinary or generally weird. This was seen in the Dub The Dew contest where the most voted option for the new Mtn Dew flavor name was "Hitler Did Nothing Wrong."

The "Cyz" or "Cyzira" effect refers to a phenomenon where a person suddenly and unexpectedly disappears during an online activity, such as a Discord call or a match lobby in a multiplayer game. This leaves the remaining participants waiting and wondering, "Where is Cyz?" This term is used to describe situations where someone's abrupt absence causes confusion or delays, often disrupting the flow of the ongoing activity.
1. "We were all set to start the raid, but then the Cyz Effect hit us as Ash disappeared from the voice chat."
2. "We were having a great conversation, but it was interrupted by the Cyz Effect when Yikes went offline without any notice."
3. "In the middle of our strategy discussion, we got hit by the Cyz Effect as Lake suddenly dropped from the call."
4. "The match lobby was ready, but the Cyz Effect occurred when Wellsy vanished, leaving us all confused."
5. "Just when we were about to start, the Cyz Effect struck and Wolfy was nowhere to be found."

Turbulent Tree Effect (noun): A branch phenomenon of the Chaos Theory in which a system that is influenced by many factors produces random yet organized and fundamental patterns that are irregular and branching, resembling the shape of a tree or a fractal of chaotic properties.
From the veins of rivers that took decades to form, the root-like patterns of a lightning strike and the mayhem of turbulent smoke rising from a flame all inhibit the properties of the Turbulent Tree Effect.
Like fractals, the effect is a fundamental observations of the universe that seem random and unorganized. But these patterns are a result of harmonious entropy that makes nature stunning.

An unofficial branch off Chaos Theory, where the aftermaths produced from slight disturbances are observed in a phenomenon in which a sensitive system that is influenced by factors from such disturbances produce patterns that are irregular and entropic; resembling the shape of the organic branches or a fractal, maybe both.
From the patterns of water erosion engraved on earth, wave-like veins of a river, root-like systems in lightning and laminar smoke rising into turbulent mayhem all exhibit the Turbulent Tree Effect.
The Turbulent Tree Effect is not only confined within physical reality, it rather branches out to an evergrowing tree of mapped theoretical or probabilistic circumstance.
-
From the subtle shifts of sand and stone,
to the swirling streams of blue and green.
From the jagged forks of fire and light,
to the rising plumes of black and white;
All reveal a hidden truth unseen.
Where the slightest change can cause a storm,
where the order breaks into the wild,
where the systems bend and twist and split,
where the patterns grow and branch and fit.
All reflect a complex beauty mild.
Not just bound by nature's laws and forms;
but extending to the realms of thought.
Where the outcomes branch from every choice,
where the possibilities rejoice.
All connect a cosmic web of naught.

The Zegler Effect
The Zegler Effect refers to the phenomenon where individuals who are placed on a pedestal or given a position of power/privilege, but lack moral integrity, humility, or respect for others, will inevitably fall or be brought down. This effect highlights the importance of character, gratitude, and reciprocity in maintaining one's status, relationships, or influence.
Key Components:
1. *Pedestal/Position of Power*: Being placed in a position of admiration, authority, or privilege.
2. *Lack of Moral Integrity/Humility*: Failure to demonstrate virtues such as honesty, empathy, or self-awareness.
3. *Disrespect/Exploitation*: Disregard or manipulation of others, including those who have supported or enabled one's success.
4. *Inevitable Downfall*: The eventual loss of status, relationships, or influence due to one's own actions or character flaws.
The Zegler Effect serves as a cautionary tale, reminding individuals that true greatness is built on a foundation of strong character, mutual respect, and a willingness to learn from others.
