retrospec | loading...overflow...

Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options.

Anyway, now that the copypaste part is out of the way! Jim here, requesting you guys make your secret meetings a little more exciting. It's not like you're not trying with the whole "let's meet off the network!" dealio, but I have some serious concerns. For one thing, no secret handshakes or phrases? Not even dramatic meeting locations? The trying rating is about half a star if that. And I'm almost bored to tears with the whole back and forth about what's going on. Not bored enough to give you a cheat sheet, but still. I can't get myself taken off surveillance duty, so at least try to make it a little more exciting!

You guys might like this wikihow. Later!

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Characters who have been in game for more than one month will find they can change their profile pictures; newcomers are locked into their first choice.

At various points throughout the day users will be sent images of themselves from behind, regardless of where they are. There doesn't seem to be any way to catch whoever might be taking and sending these, however, especially since being alone in a room doesn't seem to be a deterrent.

This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

I am, yes! It's very pretty in the summer but it can get boring after a while, haha.

Hmm, so you guys remembered things being "right" (horses) and then one day they changed to "wrong" (chocobos)? Because I remembered things being "right" (chocobos) and then one day REALIZED that they were actually wrong. I think.

This is confusing.

Right.
Well, those of us that were in the first...I guess round? of people they added to the app.

Everyone since then has done it the way you have.

It will not stop being confusing, sorry.

Ahh, interesting. That's so strange. How many times have they added new people like this? Is it usually a lot all at once?

Three. If you count us as the first group.
Then more people at the beginning of March.
But no one in April. At least, no one who spoke up that I saw.

And now you all today.

That's... odd. Did something happen in March that made them skip a month, maybe?

Other than the fruit changing, nothing...big.
I don't think anyone has thought about it too much.
Maybe whatever system they use to...I don't know...

Wake people up? Drive people maybe?

Maybe it needed a recharge.

Huh. I guess we'll have to see if there's a pattern moving forward? Assuming we're not the last group of people who are going to be added to this, I mean.

Or maybe Retrospec will get out of beta some day...! If Jim doesn't get arrested for stalking.

If you are, that opens up a whole new set of questions.
Or it could just mean whatever they're doing is almost over.

They have a bunch of cops on here.
I don't think they're worried about getting arrested.

Well, see, that's just asking for trouble! If they're cocky enough to show a bunch of cops that they're stalking half of the city, they're bound to get caught, right?

Well, that's one way to look at it.
The other is that they aren't worried at all about getting caught.

Either they don't think anything can be done to stop them, or they have someone in the police department protecting them...

[that is... not how she preferred to think about it, oops.]

Oh my god what if they ARE the police.

[probably a little far, but--]

Do we have any proof that the police officers on the app aren't just trying to throw off the scent???

We can't think that way, the conspiracy pressure we'll drive us mad.

Besides, I trust Togusa, at least.
I don't know the rest of them really.

I'm going to be honest I think I'm going to go mad either way, so

I guess I should commit all the way!

(Not to doubt you if you say you trust some of them, you probably know more than me about it anyway.)

It does feel that way, but that hardly means we have to accept it.

I wouldn't say more.
We barely know anything.

I think I just have a lot of practice at this point.
