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.

I hope it's not just the stupid talking flowers they put in. Those are the worst.

Ugh, no way. If that's the only blue thing that we got back, I'm not even going to bother looking.

They're creepier when they're grey, but they're creepy all the time, it's not a big change.

It's a matter of principle, not even how creepy they are! Retrospec shouldn't be allowed to create weird flowers, strip the color blue from the world, then return it to just their weird flowers and expect us to thank them for it! It won't stand!

They're assholes. Giant assholes. They shouldn't expect us to thank them for bringing blue back to anything when they're the ones who took it away in the first place.

Exactly! I can't believe Jim even had the nerve to suggest it! Though I'd send Maurice a thank you note for not being an asshole to us (yet). Just to stick it to Jim.

Maurice should get a raise. A big one.

Maurice should get Jim's entire salary.

Sounds perfect. Fire Jim, give his salary to Maurice, everyone who isn't a douchebag wins.

Don't jinx it, though, I don't want Maurice to end up being a double douchebag.

Good point. I don't even want to think about how to out-douchebag Jim.
