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.

I'm certain he can do that and have an ulterior motive all at once. Jim does seem to be fairly multitalented that way.

I'm sure he appreciates reading that haha.

Seriously though, what kind of ulterior motives do you think he has?

Well, for one thing, if he's trying to get a lot of people to suddenly sit up and pay attention, this is a good way of doing it.

That just begs the question of what he might want to do with our undivided attention, doesn't it?

Yes, I suppose. I always assumed these announcements were part of a social experiment, but now...

He did just announce that he's always watching when he shared that wikihow link, but that's not really news. Just an uncomfortable reminder. Do you think we're missing something?

Oh, I absolutely think we're missing something. Quite possibly a lot of somethings, really.

The problem is, we don't know what we don't know — which makes it very hard to find out. An unknown unknown is always far more unpredictable than something you know you don't know.

That's true... Focusing on observation hasn't gotten anyone too far from what I've seen, though. But that's not one of my strong points, I'll admit that.

Still, I'm interested in anything you might learn about these unknowns

I suppose the only way to find out, at this point, is a combination of vigilance and trial and error.
