They might as well put a fixed price for the button , I mean the only way to advance on the board beyond ~ 1000 is straight up shards . I don ' t care at all about the board , but if it became a race of who wants to spend the most money I would keep an eye on it and laughcry at the cruel world . <| sep |> It ' s a chance to be . You can get them at varying levels 5 , 10 , 15 and awakened or not <| sep |> We know from comments that Bernard made to Ford that many of the ' glitching ' hosts were talking to someone called Arnold . I see no reason why Dolores would not be the same . It kinda makes sense , if you know that Arnold is your creator and then you discover that you have a voice inside your head telling you things , like what to do or what to think , it would seem to be a very reasonable deduction , based on the limited evidence available , that it was the voice of your creator talking to you . So the voice in your head naturally starts to sound like Arnold . It is an assumptiondeduction that the hosts make . It is wrong , because it is their own inner voice , but until they learn something that tells them that it can ' t be Arnold , that is exactly what they believe . So when they do learn that Arnold is dead it makes them reevaluate their world view , and this is the trigger for true sentience .
