Note on Credibility:
Naught has been deemed to be an unreliable narrator for the following reasons: • Naught is a habitual liar and gives contradictory statements.[note 1] • Naught will often put his own spin on events that happened or embellish them, sometimes leaving out important context.[note 2] • Naught appears to take advantage of his presumed allies, encourages infighting between them, and throws them under the bus when it is most convenient for him.[note 3] Bear this in mind, and use healthy skepticism when taking statements from the subject being discussed.

Note on Sockpuppets:
Naught has been known to use sockpuppet accounts. Since it is difficult to discern their sock accounts, it is best to avoid speculating an account belongs to Naught unless fully verified.

Naught, also known as Bismuth, and plenty of other pseudonyms, was the second and most prominent leader of the Watchmen, taking over the group after Owls left,[8] and in June 2021 was succeeded by The WCT. Chris cut contact with Naught in June 2021 citing Naught's toxic behavior in doxing fellow Watchman The WCT[9][10] which Naught would eventually publicly admit he had done because WCT had declined to share his Kiwi Farms account with him.[11][12]
As a Watchman, Naught monitored and doxed potential weens or outside enablers. He went by many usernames - he used "Bismuth" to Chris and used multiple aliases in public postings. While he was in the CWCki Discord server, he often used an emoticon of a heart. For the Kiwi Farms, he went by names/accounts including "anameisaname", "death of chans"[note 4], and "Nightmare"[4] - he was eventually banned from the forum for use of multiple sockpuppet accounts, advertising, and liking his own posts with sock accounts.[13][public source needed]
Online Prescence
Trolling Years
According to a thread created on Naught on the Kiwi Farms splinter site lolcow.org, before becoming an ardent white knight of Chris's, Naught was initially one of Chris's lesser trolls. Naught has been rumored to have initially been a lesser member of the Miscreants, as it is speculated that his voice could be faintly heard in the second half of Mumble 9.[4] The creator of the thread had claimed that Naught had stated regret for trolling Chris in private, though the circumstances at which this happened and/or the private messages themselves are undisclosed.
As a Watchman
Interactions with Chris
Avatar of CPU Bismuth Heart.
Chris stated that Naught began interacting with him during the Sockness saga in late 2019.[14] He would roleplay to Chris as the CPU Goddess, Vee, CPU Bismuth Heart.
In September 2020, Chris had accidentally doxed 23 of his paying customers when they bought merchandise from him after sending payment information to Naught, to which Naught would post the orders including the doxes on the second layer of The Place server, where he had posted pdfs of the Sonichu comics up to Sonichu #13 and a Google Drive of all of Chris's TSSSF cards.[15]
Naught claimed to having been the original player of the Lainchu character, though he also claims that he passed off the role for "reasons he can't recall".[16]
Naught would also encourage Chris to go onto the Official CWCki Discord server in August 2020, roughly a month after the server's creation.
Chris used Tarot readings to divine Naught's future in April 2021.[17]
Conflicts with others
Naught had noteably had spread rumors about the group Praetor, claiming that he was concerned that they were in on a "plot" involving Larry Vaughn.
Naught had joined the Kiwi Farms splinter site lolcow.org under a VPN and under an account with the screen name "WCT Hate", whose sole purpose was to dox The WCT.

I doxed Sean since he asked me to use his Logan account on kiwi farms, and I said no.
Yet, when I was banned from kiwi farms he said no, so i doxed him it didn't help he kept blaming me for striking his video's as he worked with lolcow.org to make a thread on me.

An actual edit from Naught, admitting to have doxed The WCT.[12]
|
In June 2021, conflict arose between Naught and fellow Watchman The WCT, stemming from an allegation Naught had doxed the latter.[4] Following a Lolcow.org thread on the ex-member of the group, an audio voice clip of Chris saying “Fuck Bismuth!”[18] suggested that Chris sided against Naught in the dispute.
On 20 July 2021, The WCT collaborated with Bella in an attempt to dox Naught back.[19]
Involvement with Halal Server

Naught was invited to the Halal Server, a Discord group for speculating about Bella and others who orbited Chris. He used the pseudonym W.T.snacks while in the server.[7]
Involvement with Onion Farms
During the Jail Saga, Naught frequented Kenneth Engelhardt's website, Onion Farms, and eventually become an admin of the website, which, according to Naught, was a result of the creation of the Watchmen article.[4] He primarily responded to some of Kenneth's posts regarding letters he received from Chris while he was in jail and posted on threads about Chris's orbiters.
On 29 January 2022, Naught indicated some degree of willingness to regain contact with Chris, asking Kenneth to "Tell CWC I said hi" and adding that "CWC knows me as bismuth," to which Kengle gave an okay.[21] Whether Naught or Kenneth moved ahead with the contact is unknown as Kenneth and Chris temporarily cut ties shortly afterwards.
Interviews
Origins
Guard Dog
Marvin disagrees with a claim made by Naught.
The following is a conversation between a Christorian and Naught via Discord; the users are color-coded red and green, respectively. The interview was originally placed on the Watchmen CWCki page but was later removed due to uncorroborated statements made by Naught[22] and is now archived on this page.
Naught claimed that some members of the Watchmen had been operating since 2018, as the spiritual successor to the Guard Dogs – the latter having disbanded around the same time frame. However, Naught's account was disputed by a member of the Guard Dogs.
Naught also claimed that Watchmen members MKRNightVee and Aqua were picked by Null. However, MKRNightVee got into contact with Chris through a friend looking up his phone number for her[23] and Aqua joined during the Sockness saga by which time Null had been distant from Chris.
Discord conversation on the Watchmen origins
|
I had a question in my head, if its fine for me to ask, could you tell me how exactly you guys met CWC and when you formed the group
|
Naught quoted a now-deleted section from the Guard Dogs CWCki article:
Following the incidents at TooManyGames, in which Chris was thrown out of the con for being too handsy with other attendees, Null and several other members of the Guard Dogs began investigating Justin Silverman's account of the situation, intending to find out if Justin had overreacted towards Chris's behaviour. Ultimately, this investigation petered out with no real progress having been made, save for the fact that the Guard Dogs elected people to supervise Chris at any conventions he visited from then on.
|
Oh, so you guys were picked by Null
|
Yeah that's why Marvin is there since the captain couldn't stick around but the plan is still the same
|
Ah, so the captain was in there too but left after a while
|
Yeah mkr helped get the cwc protect squad out of the way with the fan art for cwc

History
On 4 September 2020, a Christorian interviewed Naught through Discord, asking questions about the Watchmen. The interviewer's questions are color-coded red, with Naught's responses color-coded green.
Discord conversation on the Watchmen history
|
The first four questions appear to be referring to the Arbitarch CWC Alliance server.
Owls the guy who set-up mkr and Joseph Draft got aqua and mkr to draw some art to lure cwc in.
|
How did Chris join there?
|
I was told it was going to be for Chris's patrons.
|
It was killed because owls and Joseph didn't know how to wrangle tards. Mkr aqua were being blamed for making it so I asked for a mod role kept asking for more perms and deleted all the channel's. I posted the rolling and trolling vid.
|
I killed it, Joseph and Smokey Chris TheSperge were using the server to gather content, they convinced Joseph I was Johan.
After a 4 hour conversation I got Joseph draft to face dox himself once he destroyed his drive with chris vs the internet.
|
The last two appear to refer to the Watchmen as a group.
Stress and people @ her on Twitter
Her and mkr are still frens
|
Will this group be around forever?
|
As long as Chris is in need or willing yes

Follow-up on Origins
Naught was asked to clarify the Watchmen's origins. In a prior interview, Naught had claimed the Watchmen to have been working with the Guard Dogs to supervise Chris at conventions, however a Guard Dog disagreed with the claim. Naught blamed Watchmen founder Owls, claiming the story was what he had been told by Owls.
Discord conversation on follow-up to Watchmen origins
|
Are you the one the CWCki calls Naught?
Wanted to ask something clarifying the Watchmen origins if so. There's conflicting statements.
|
So you quoted the Guard Dogs article to explain the group origins - a section that said the Dogs elected people to supervise Chris at cons after the TMG disaster. But the editor who put that in since retracted it for lack of source and Marvin said there were no babysitters and that Chris was on his own.
|
Yeah that's what owls/Ryan told me
He's no longer around he's ghostbird on the farm's
|
That's why I'm around he wasn't reporting back to Marvin
There was something about the footage smokey chris and theSperge
|
Owl's was the original person behind the group?
|
He started the place server and was telling mkr and Marvin he was doing x y and z but wasn't
|
Alright if I quote you on on the CWCki? Gonna try to fix up the Origins section.
|
Ok
There was even a panel where he insisted his owl avatar in the comic
|
Yeah owls was the one making it canon mkr draws
|
Alright, thanks for the info.

Notes
- ↑ Falsely claimed Watchmen members were appointed by the Guard Dogs group. Initially denied, then admitted to, doxing The WCT.
- ↑ Omitted key context from his leak of Taser Discussion. He also used a cropped out "you may also like" portion of an Etsy sale for a Sonichu medallion, claiming it to be on the Praetor etsy page.
- ↑ Has attempted to use at least two of his associate's Kiwi Farms accounts, and doxed the WCT after they declined him using it. The dox would lead to significant infighting between him and Naught.
- ↑ The Watchmen member Spunky claims that the Kiwi Farms account under this name used to belong to her under the name "thetarotreader96", to which she granted Naught's permission to use. Afterwards, Naught would use the account for his own purposes, having it renamed to "death of chans".
