LOADING...OVERFLOW

[recollecters]

Hello and happy new year! A lot of poll results came in from R&D and we've almost fixed taste all the way. Horses are almost fixed, too. We've been working pretty much non-stop around the holidays to stabilize everything, so I hope this works! Just so you guys know, while we were working on fixing the original problems we received some alerts of residual effects outside of our usual domain. Don't worry though! Remember what I said a while ago? We're still moving more resources around into better defenses to protect the city from huge storms like last summer. We'll be taking care of that really soon and isolating the unknown problem. I wish I could tell you more, but we're all working overtime here to finish the final stages of a big project. No matter what happens you guys should be safe while we finish up, so just stay calm, okay? Don't get too reckless! Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated As of this post taste tier 4 has been icly regained; tier 5 will go into effect on Saturday, January 6th at 9pm EST and taste will be fully restored!

I don't know, I'm more nervous about what's happening.
Being told to calm down doesn't really help
At least we can taste things again and horses will be back!

Since taste is back what foods did people miss?
I really missed sandwiches and pocky!
I'm glad I can eat it again

Those are so good! I really like the chocolate ones too.
They really are! I've seen some really pretty ones that I wouldn't want to eat
There are some ice cream that looks really nice too

Really bitter espresso
And just coffee in general.
Though I guess that's not really a "food" . . .

[amodelidol]

Drinks count too!
Wow you can drink really bitter espresso that's pretty good
I can't drink anything really bitter
My favorite kind of coffee drinks are really sweet

Do you have a favorite flavor of coffee?

[floret]

Hmmm
I like mochas sometimes, and I'll try pretty much any seasonal drink. But I'm not really that into flavored coffees in general. Any level of roast is fine, though!

What about you, other than sweet?

[amodelidol]

Mochas are really good. I like trying the seasonal drinks those can be pretty good. Then again it's a hit or miss with some seasonal drinks, there are some I really enjoy like the ones around Christmas time.

Hmm, I like medium roast, it's not too strong for me.

If I drink anything stronger I'm up for the rest of the night.

Wow . . .

I can barely remember what it was like to not be able to sleep if I drank too much caffeine . . .

[amodelidol]

Really!? How much coffee do you drink?
I'm curious
I can only drink about two if I can manage it
I drank three for finals season and couldn't really get to sleep until I finished everything

[floret]

Umm
I guess around eight or nine cups a day? lol
Sometimes less than that, though.
But also sometimes more.

I mean I wouldn't recommend doing that or anything.
