Trivia

• Wildbow hinted in the comments that Parahumans Online may have been a side project of Dragon.<ref name="I19.y">Interlude 19.y</ref>
• Several of the usernames seen on the message boards are plays on usernames of posters from the site comments and elsewhere.<ref name="I19.y"/><ref name="U-SComment">Comment by user Undead-Spaceman on Interlude 19.y</ref><ref name="R-LComment">Comment by user Random Lurker on Interlude 19.y</ref><ref name="20.3c1">All of the people who appear in the (two) Parahumans Online installments are either commenters, forum-posters (in various threads on sites where people are discussing Worm) and people from the chatroom, with slight name changes. - Confirmation by Wildbow on Chrysalis 20.3</ref>
• Capes could have a Parahuman account and a plain cloths sock puppet account from when they were on PHO in their civilian identity.<ref>Their login process notes that her account is a 'cape in civilian clothes' account; they're a cape but has two accounts, and this is the one they switch to when they don't want to broadcast that they're a cape. A kind of legitimate 'sockpuppet' account. - Synopsis by Wildbow</ref>
