Hello, everyone! As you've probably noticed, we've been having a few problems - I mentioned earlier that something got knocked out of balance, and we had to recalibrate, but in a few days we should be able to drop the emergency measures. Please be aware that there is an incoming storm, class four. General orders for that kind of thing are to report to management for any known threats and follow instructions, but so far what's known is "that might be a little annoying" and "hope it isn't". Theoretically it'll probably be related to the holiday, I think, because a large group of souls focused through the needle of a pin on one thing can sort of shape a thing around them. That's sort of a really inaccurate way to put it on the technical side of things, but I think it's the easiest way to understand it! At any rate, we'll know more once we're in the thick of things. Please take care as usual; resources aren't exactly what some of you seem to think they are, and we had to expend rather more than usual in the past month or so to keep things with a few of you steady.

This month's freebie can be earned by turning in a thread on this post that has 5 or more consecutive comments from you with someone new. We define someone new as someone new to the game, or simply someone your character has never tagged before. 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.

My thoughts exactly.
Too bad you can't uninstall it.

[liarboo]

Why do you still check it then?

[heiroglyphs]

Because it won't leave you alone until you do.
I wish I was kidding.

[liarboo]

Ugh... Is it a notifications monster? Twitter is annoying enough

[heiroglyphs]

Basically.
If you don't answer it, it'll just follow you to other devices until you do.

[liarboo]

...Like what devices?

[heiroglyphs]

Tablets, computers, televisions
One time I was in class and my calculator started reading messages to me.

[liarboo]

No way...! They make wifi calculators now?!

[heiroglyphs]

That's the thing.
I'm pretty sure they don't.

[liarboo]

No. I don't like this.

[heiroglyphs]

You get used to it.
Just... make sure you answer your pings.

[liarboo]

What if you just keep all wifi stuff off

[heiroglyphs]

I don't think the app cares very much about your internet connection.
You're underestimating just how determined Retrospec is to insert itself into your life.

[liarboo]

Well then retrospec is underestimating how determined I can get avoiding all problem in my life!
