A Survey...

[megabond]

Hello there! I'm conducting an unofficial survey regarding Retrospec. It's not mandatory, but considering the strange events we've been experiencing, it would be wise for me to know how many users are affected to this. The survey is down below and it is okay if you don't fill out the form below.

1. When did you first obtain the Retrospec app?

2. Did you try to uninstall this app?

3. Have you tried showing this app to anyone other than the users?

4. Have you receive a package from Retrospec?

5. Did you experience a strange event related to this app?

6. Have you met some Retrospec users in person?

I can't tell you the reasons for putting up this survey, but if you want, you can just reply to me about your experiences in this app without filling out the survey form above me.

Thank you in advance!

The site went live on January the 31st with an original user base of 101 people. The March 1st update added approximately an additional 60 users, but it's harder to tell the exact number now just by observation. Some people are keeping quieter. Your results should have just one of those two dates.

If someone has left the city, they seem to have disappeared off this site. So the total user number is less than 161. I've attempted to contact my former colleague, Officer Amicia, who left Recolle for personal reasons, but either he no longer has access, or was removed from the site.

1. January 31, I think?

2. Several times, and bought a new phone since it was time to renew. It was already downloaded.

3. Yes, they can't see it.

4. Yes, a fork.

5. Horses are now birds, fruit dances, and I have seen strange visions, so yes.

6. Several

Are you trying to keep a record of all of this information, to pool resources?

1. Just this month when Mr. Lee gave me a phone.

2. Yes, I thought it was a virus!

3. No, I hadn't thought to. My phone is always off during school.

4. No, I don't think so?

5. A strange event? In what way?

6. I have! They've been very nice!

Will you be publishing the results? Perhaps as a proportion of users who have experienced a strange event and those who have not?

Why the secrecy about the survey? Isn't that scientifically illegal? Don't you have to disclose what all surveys and experiments are for, or else it's unethical?

1. idk sometime this month?

2. yeah but it didn't work.

3. i asked my mom about it, but she didn't even see it when i showed it to her. kind of like she doesn't notice how weird the dancing fruit is, like i'm the crazy one.

4. no, thank god. how do they even get your address? they're like internet stalkers

5. what does that even mean

6. yeah. kind of hard to avoid when i go to school with some of them.

1. almost two months ago now

2. yep... i even made a clone of my phone and purged it and the moment i put it on again it installed even before i had restored the data :/

3. yes, not possible

4. no

5. it showed a video that looks like it had been recorded in my doctor's office without my consent and talking about stuff very few people know about. similar stuff seemed to happen to others. and then there's all the general weirdness that has happened after getting the app, and the fact that i remember a couple of things that never happened to me now.

6. yes, a couple of them are old friends and one is my cousin.

1. The first of March.

2. You didn't think I'd seriously just leave it there? I tried everything I could - uninstalled, normal factory reset, flashed a new ROM... Had to send my phone back because it was a fire hazard also :( :( :( :( and Retrospec was on the new one. Whatever they're doing, it's some pretty advanced tracking. I'm impressed.

3. [give him a moment to be bitter about having like, no friends!! okay, now that that's over] No. I wonder if they'd even register it.

4. Thank God, no. I'll, uh, keep an eye on my mailbox.

5. My life is, seemingly, a strange event related to this app. I've been having odd dreams, but I can't say for sure whether they're related, or whether I just haven't been sleeping enough.

6. We all live in the same city, so far as I can tell; it'd be hard not to, wouldn't it?

1. March
2. Nah man
3. I don't go about showing people my phones?
4. Little coin thing but that's about it
5. Life itself is already a strange conundrum
6. Most def
