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.

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.

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.

you're pretty late pointing out the qr code thing.

look, listen. just because i'm not having-a-cow-man like some people, i think you'd have to be paying even less attention than me to think i'm seriously suggesting something like that. i just can't exactly been panic when we're already seeing some blue again and it's been like, what, a week?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

just because we've seen it again already doesn't mean that we can just relax. it's not entirely back, green's still AWOL, and we've got a brand new cryptic, ominous message to decipher.
some people will take your suggestion seriously. panic does weird things to crowds.

well i couldn't have known that, could i? here's how it went:

me: if we take these events and blend them up into a sludgy disaster soup, it sounds kinda funny!
me: i'll tell people about the OBVIOUS answer
me: there's no way anyone who would take this seriously would be smart enough to use a cellphone, let alone find butane and a lighter!

like, you just can't fix stupid. or selfish! like i said, that's the only reason green's still missing!
