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 that's possible i'd get behind that 100%!
i want the best outcome but right now i'll also take the lesser of two evils
anything is better than jim the jerk right now imo!

You don't start out making demands for the lesser of two evils. Then you just sound like you actually want that option.

Why not ask for what you really want first and see if you've got a chance of getting it?

you have a good point but what do you do if you know you have no chance?
or what if i want to see if they'll give in a little first and then i can ask for more later?
but here i just wanted to see who agreed with me

Sure, fine. Get a count of all the people who are okay with still being trapped under Retrospec's BS thumb.

I don't see a point in trying to give them an inch to start with.

i can't speak for everyone but i wouldn't say okay with it
and i would rather solve something peacefully
despite my dramatics

i don't want to resort to violence
so anything involving that won't involve me

[ Well. He can't fault her for that. She knows what she's about and she's sticking to it. That's how the army works anyway--those who are able and willing to fight do on behalf of those who don't. ]

Alright, fine. But I hope you're prepared for this different Retrospec overlord to be just as crappy as the first one.

is jim an overlord now?
just like it's not impossible for the next person to be awful it's not impossible for the next person to be alright

He might as well be.

But sure, if you want to be blindingly optimistic, go ahead and embrace Maurice with open arms. The rest of us will be ten feet behind you, getting the crowbars and boxing gloves ready.
