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 think this is like one of those logic puzzles...

🤔 let me see...

- 🤔 people don't like going into the forest
- 🤔 we're sposed to learn how to make a fire
- 🤔 the forest is totes spooky
- 🤔 wood is flammable

i think i solved half of the responses here! talk about a way to kill two birds with one stone lol. and um any other birds that don't get out, i guess

[potentite]

[Oh no it's period panties girl.]

Please dont set the forest ablaze miss.

[eyestitch]

i mean I probably wouldn't! that's a lot of manual labor.

i remember you! we were talking about you being pretty strong! is this something that you could handle?

[potentite]

Burning down the forest??
I mean i suppose i could? I dont think that would be wise though?

[eyestitch]

jakey :(

if you can't start a fire, who can?

what if i told one that one of those awful flowers stole a terrible secret?

[youraffection]

wtf
thats a terrible idea

[eyestitch]

[At least she didn't almost eat a piece of paper 😇 😇😇 😇]

it's not the most challenging puzzle, no.

what's your criticism?

[youraffection]

[ LOOK.

That wasn't his idea! ]

umm
bc thats illegal? and also super dangerous??

[eyestitch]

[HOW DOES PAPER TASTE, YOSUKE?]

ok smokey the bear!! i'm glad you're here to remind us that burning down the forest is literally illegal.

this has gotta be why jim never comes out when he does his dirty work or has us do it or whatever; he doesn't want to go to the big j a i l.

[adoringpast]

Do you even call that logic, seriously

[eyestitch]

sure! when life gives you lemons! and jim is clearly giving us a box of matches and reminding us that the forest gives people the heebie jeebies!

unless you think we're supposed to burn the hobo... 🤔

[adoringpast]

Where in his post did he even indicate that he gave us matches to burn anything down... Your reading comprehension is terrible as always, Harime.

[eyestitch]

and you're recovering very well from your creativity disease, i see!

matches are too old fashioned for someone like you, but that's why they're perfect for jim to hand out! i've got an extra lighter, if you want it! it's your favorite color~

[splinten]

I'm going to have to fault this one. It doesn't account for the QR codes.

[eyestitch]

ohh heck! that's a huge oversight. whoever came up with this theory should be punished...

okay, what are you thinking?

- qr codes a map to the forest?
- qr code loads a predominantly green and blue image so no one can read it
- love letter to janet

[splinten]

The last raises the question of if he is capable of anything as coherent as a love letter, even one encrypted in QR codes.

[seeker]

there's nothing about this plan that isn't stupid.

[eyestitch]

[Oh, no, the bow and arrow vigilante is going to stop her dastardly plan!]

the whole thing? that's pretty harsh. but you shouldn't shoot the messenger! blame jim for giving us crappy clues.

how would you improve it?

[seeker]

if you're not just being a troll, which i doubt: by not destroying an entire ecosystem, for starters.
secondly, it doesn't add up. one tip was "how to read a map." maps with information showed up later. the qr codes are the same, i'd assume.

chances are we're going to need to know how to do it because something else is about to be taken away from us.

[true_noir]

It might be best not to set the forest on fire, honestly. I doubt it would do anyone any good.

[eyestitch]

what, really?

then why would jim give us all these clues pointing to sun an obvious answer?

[true_noir]

It's possible we need fire because it's about to become winter in the middle of June. I wouldn't put it past him.

[wordcarvings]

So basically, you want to burn down the forest? Please don't do that.

[eyestitch]

want? want, want, want... let me go back and read what i wrote!

[...]]

...nope, there's no 'want' there! just a logical conclusion from the breadcrumbs jimbob is leaving us.

so are you one of those people who DOESN'T think the forest is scary?

[wordcarvings]

It’s what you imply.
It’s really not very logical.
I think it’s unpleasant because of all the lack of the colors.
