Hey, Users! This month's wikihow is right over here. In other news, don't you just love our logo colors? Such a nice shade of blue. I'm pretty fond of it myself! You know, Janet has blue eyes. But then, I guess you guys don't know anyone with eyes that color anymore, right? Whoops.

Anyway, see you next month! Well, some of you anyway. :)

As discussed on the monthly plot post the colors blue and green are now gray - except for the blue on the retrospec application logo and their building sign, although no NPC will be capable of seeing the color in these places. As stated in the plot post, NPCs will also seem to be completely unaware that the colors blue and green ever existed. Oops.

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. Last's month's application round characters are now capable of changing their profile pictures.

Hope can only take a couple so far, until the harsh grip of reality squeezes out any last traces of romance.

And flaunting it in our faces with that blasted logo. I agree.

This change will be particularly hard to ignore, given how pervasive it'll be. It doesn't settle well with me, I'll admit.

They're escalating.

And yet, for what purpose? If they're trying to make a point, there are less questionable ways to go about it. Why play with the state of the world itself, if you've nothing to accomplish?

Who says this doesn't accomplish anything?

If there's a practical reason for getting rid of blue and green specifically, it escapes me. You've a thought?

So you mean to say that their reach is becoming more and more prevalent. I think that had been the dawning realization the day that they took photographs of everyone here without their notice -- at work, in their homes, etc.

But if intimidation is their game, what do they accomplish with it? What we're experiencing is too
[he pauses while typing this bit out. What's the word?] purposeful for its point to just be chaos and little else. We're being manipulated, in some way.

Manipulated into doing what?

And /that's/ the million dollar question.

[he has to really stretch the imagination for that one]

Jim only seems to be taking some increasing sort of sadistic pleasure from all of it. I don't think he's the one calling the shots, as it were.
