INCIDENT 029: THE CACHE THAT WOULD NOT CLEAR

STATUS: RECOVEREDEVIDENCE: CDN purge logs, repository diff, cached HTML

Every purge restored the page with one new sentence.

The final version ended with a sentence nobody on the team remembers writing.

Recovered notes

Repository history contains no matching commit, yet the cached bytes carry the production build signature. The added text references an archive date from 1998 that had not yet been added to the project brief.

The record remains in the archive because it shares at least one recurring marker with later incidents: an extra room, a duplicated person, a timestamp that precedes its cause, or a numbered door that should not exist.

ARCHIVE WARNING / Some timestamps in this section predate the public site. They are presented as part of the fictional 31 Doors experience.
