[recollecters]

Hello Users, For those of you who are new: Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. For all, new and old: Please be advised that should you go above and beyond the call of duty for Mr. Halloway's little game in the coming days, there may be a reward granted or information given. 100% completion would be the goal for that, should you have an interest. If you have no interest in the matter, please feel free to carry on as usual. R&D will not be handling further communiques for this month, or possibly the next few months. This should not, of course, have any impact on your usage of Retrospec™. The first milestone for the second of the colors lost has been met, and accordingly we have diverted resources to fix what could be fixed. R&D has alerted me that a bigger loss may occur in the near future, and I would advise you to be careful, though I am afraid neither they nor I can be much more detailed than that. Finally, I would like to extend congratulations to those of you who have now reached your sixth month. We hope you will continue to accept our assistance in these trying times. Thank you for your patience, Janet Wiseman Human Resources Retrspec Incorporated As of this post green fruits and flowers of this color regain their pigment. (Note: this is not all plants. This is just for flowers and fruits!) 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. Any new characters will find that the first photo they upload is locked as their profile picture for the rest of the month. Characters who have been in game since February will find their profiles now have a 6 months badge. It does absolutely nothing of note. This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

well if they’re going to be that weird about taking pictures of people they kind of deserve to have tricks played on them

thank god we don’t get a lot of tourists here though
it’s bad enough just dealing with retrospec

[destiny_key]

yeah its nice here in that respect
like i miss hawaii but recolle is really nice too!!!
except for retrospec yeah
that part sucks

actually it kind of almost feels more like home here than my hometown

[commandertoolbelt]

i feel you on that
we lived in houston until i was eight but i’d never call it home
plus my crazy relatives are there and my friends are here so like
easy decision, you know?

yosuke

[commandertoolbelt]

[ from here ]

sounds like he’s already got it planned though
so if we were doomed to uno we were doomed long before i ever mentioned it
besides jim is exactly the kind of sadist who’d do that to us
that or like… charades idk

[youraffection]

charades...
ok so i feel like that would b worse than uno
but tbh i think the one id really have a fit about is monopoloy

[commandertoolbelt]

maybe but at least it has potential to be funny
monopoly though? what are you going to do, fight over the railroads?

yukine

[commandertoolbelt]

[ from here ]

wouldn’t he have been fired already if he did that stuff though
or maybe that’s why he’s gone? he’s on probation?

hard to tell about that since they never actually work with us
they just throw stuff at us and expect us to deal with it
at this point though i’m not sure any of us would want to work there even if they had an opening, benefits or not

[secare]

you'd think
but maybe there's a reason he's able to get away with all this creepy stuff
like i mean did you see the creepy marriage proposal
THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN GROUNDS RIGHT THERE TO FIRE HIM

but i dunno
maybe he is on probation?
taking a seminar on how to act?

i guess they figure we don't matter
like whatever take out some colours
these idiots will bitch but they'll get over it

are you sure
cuz i mean
that's how you STAGE A COUP
destroy them from the inside!!

[commandertoolbelt]

wait
what if
jim is actually the big boss of retrospec
how screwed would we be

eleanor

[commandertoolbelt]

[ from here ]

got me there

but if she is real that means she’s in on whatever he’s doing, right?
is it better to be at one creep’s mercy or two?
because however many people they have, none of them are stopping him

[notyourutopian]

I have no idea which is better.
But I guess more people means more decision making.
We aren't just at one person's random whims...

[commandertoolbelt]

that just means they’re all choosing to do this stuff to us though
they’re all accomplices
and somehow they’re still keeping HOW they’re doing it secret

cleo

[commandertoolbelt]

[ from here ]

that’s fair
not gonna lie i’d probably send one that let’s out a really loud bullhorn noise when you open it
you know, something they won’t be expecting

[cattack]

It would be rather amusing. Especially if they couldn't turn off the noise.
Though perhaps a bit too harmless.

i think you missed the middle ages by a few centuries

[b0mbshell]

Oh no, they still do it in a lot of countries. Not just "third world" ones, either.

We're just lucky and very, very American I guess.

[ from here ]

honestly i’m not above sending one of those prank cards
like one that sprays water in their faces or never stops playing music until the battery dies or someone breaks it
jim’s earned that much

[daemonized]

You should do it anyway. I'd gladly put my name on it, as well.

"Sincerely,

Ardyn Izunia. May you enjoy this shrill, annoying tune until your eardrums burst."

idk maybe with janet involved he won’t go completely crazy on us
big if i know but maybe
sounds like we don’t have to play it if we don’t want to either so there’s that

but i mean inciting an angry mob can’t be good when you’re supposed to be planning a wedding right

[frostythehitman]

it's probably like one of those things where you don't have to study for the test, if you want an F. But no one wants an F, so everybody studies anyway. We're all gonna end up playing this stupid thing even if we don't want to.

futaba

[ from here ]

then we better do it while janet’s in charge of posting because there’s no way anyone would fall for it with all of jim’s wikihows

i mean, some people HAVE gotten away from retrospec, no powers involved
they forget everything about it, but they still don’t have to deal with it anymore

[alitaba]

someone should send him a wikihow to DM properly, geez

[but ???] they just forgot ??
did they lose the game

dirk

oh man i should’ve known
i bet i’ve got a secret activation phrase and everything
sleeper agent valdez in the house

except now that we’ve figured out the secret i might’ve outlived my usefulness?
if i mysteriously disappear, tell roderic he can have the robot warrior blueprints in my sketchbooks

[splinten]

Don't give up, bro. Go underground.
Now that we've broken the secret with you we can try to recover their other Manchurian candidates.
