The Lincoln Memorial in the context of Gatorbox refers to the Western zodiac symbol of Virgo as it appears in the Atari 2600 game Swordquest: EarthWorld. On September 21, 2025 Draco ran a marathon stream where he completed all four of the Swordquest games, each one of them based around various philosophical mythos (Zodiac, Tree of Life, I-Ching, etc). EarthWorld specifically is based around the Western zodiac and each room of the game is noted with a corresponding zodiac symbol. The symbol for Libra resembled the front facade of the Roman Pantheon temple, however due to the extremely low resolution of the Atari 2600 hardware Draco noted that it more closely resembled the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC.
As the first game in the quadrilogy, EarthWorld proved to be unnecessarily difficult and Draco slowly unraveled the notion that none of the "hints" in the game actually assisted in solving the final puzzle and instead the only way to win the game was through reverse-engineering it as the number of rooms (12) and number of items (15) resulted in literal billions of possible combinations, none of which are actually nudged toward the player as possible solutions.
Draco eventually found himself getting lost in the game as a result of many of the screens sharing similar color hues, Virgo being one of them due to its shade of brown being nearly identical to the one used for Cancer. Whenever Draco would enter the room to check the items only to discover he was in the wrong place he'd remark "no this is/isn't the Lincoln Memorial" and leave. It became a minor running joke throughout the Swordquest stream that any wrong turn would lead straight to the Lincoln Memorial, the remark unintentionally also serving as an "all roads lead to Rome" reference given Draco's initial remark that the symbol resembled Rome's Pantheon.
The Virgo symbol was eventually added as an emote after the fact with the shortcut "GBlincoln" as a callback to the initial joke. The emote is generally used in situations where Draco gets lost or begins aimlessly wandering around trying to figure out where to go next.
