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.

Alicia the first

[From here!]

Making Alicia boring would be REALLY hard!

But no one wants to spy in on a study session, either.

I should hope making me boring would be hard! I'm in the wrong profession if it isn't.

I don't know, it might depend on what we're studying? Perhaps Jim is studying for his certifications and wants to watch someone else suffer the same.

AH, but then he'd be cheating if he just read over our shoulders! That's not fair at all!
rosettareflected: (That doesn't sound right...)

How is that cheating? It's making use of an available resource. Given we're minors, it's probably an illegal resource, but it's not cheating unless he's actually sitting an exam at the time.

I mean.

He assuredly will be. Somehow.
rosettareflected: (That concerns me.)

I am going to give him just enough credit to establish he's not actively cheating on certification exams. Illegal activities, no, I'll see him punished for THOSE. But academic integrity, I'll allow for. One doesn't get a position like his - even for such an elusive, unusual company as Retrospec - without hard-won credentials.

Nah, there's other ways.

Backstabbing.

Blackmail.

Nepotism.
