Maurice was going to do this, but Maurice sucks so I sent him home before he could. Anyway, some of you may have noticed our new poll feature! We just don't have the time and resources to cater to all your "where is x item, what the fuck" complaints, so we had to streamline. The polls were the result of that! Coded them myself. I mean, Maurice did some of it, but I did most of it. So basically we're democratically crowd-sourcing what we're going to bother to fix for you! You can send thank you notes to the building, HR doesn't mind. So far it seems like you all care about the color blue most, so we fixed it! A little, anyway. I suggest a bracing walk through the woods if you particularly missed the color and don't feel like gazing deeply into a hobo's eyes. You've all been reading up on QR codes, right? You might also want to learn to start a fire. Just a tip. Jim Halloway Research & Development Retrspec Incorporated As per the World Regains tracker, fruits and flowers that were once blue are once again blue. This includes the echo flowers in the Recollé woods! NPCs seem to be incapable of seeing this color still, however, and will not note any differences. The color does not seem capable of being transferred to anything else, either, and any attempts to do so will simply fade the color of the thing you were trying to use to do that. Furthermore, one thread of at least 10 comments from you from this post may be supplied for one untriggered memory by linking the thread and in explanation putting "June Freebie". This may only be claimed through the rest of June, and may not be claimed after the month ends. 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.

I can definitely see that happening. we've had blackouts before...
or maybe
oh no. they wouldn't
you don't think they'd actually kidnap people do you?

[wherethewildthingsare]

no no

I don't think so at least

that'd leave way too much of a trail

I think the worst would be just

the sun going out, but we don't freeze somehow

[openhanded]

yeah it definitely would.....

a blackout I can deal with, I'm not sure I could deal with losing the sun. wouldn't that cause everything around us to break down too?
honestly I don't like any of our options but... just in case either of these happen, we should stock up on blankets and batteries and stuff.

[wherethewildthingsare]

That'd probably be smart.

And I dunno. They stole an entire spectrum of color, and shrunk everyone.. so if they could take away the sun's light but keep the heat, that wouldn't so strange..

[openhanded]

you have a point.
I'm glad I'm not a science student teacher... I'd have to deal with how broken science is while trying to teach it the right way

[wherethewildthingsare]

Maybe if you were lucky none of your students would notice.

That does seem to be the case.

Last month people didn't have any problems fighting mice or birds, like it wasn't weird.

[openhanded]

half of them are on retrospec anyway.

yeah they didn't even notice? it took me fifteen minutes to get my laptop set up and projecting that day's powerpoint. it was rough.

REALLY hoping that doesn't happen again.

I pray for you that don't arbitrarily change all computers into abacuses or something.
