Hello Users,

Please be advised that the temporal-spatial storm has now passed. Temporary access levels have been revoked. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please also be advised that as the storm has passed, work has resumed on certain other issues.

You have my sincere thanks for your assistance.

Thank you,

Janet Halloway

As of this post, the city has completely returned to normal; damage has been fixed, monsters are gone, and NPCs now believe that monsters are definitely not normal but don't seem to remember them having been a thing. Oops? All weapons and powers gained in their various locations / as QR codes are now gone, additionally. Group 1 locations can no longer be accessed.

Retrospec NPCs will not be reachable past this point! As mentioned to various members of group one, the Director does not approve of Retrospec's team speaking with its users, so NPC interaction will drop back down to what it originally was at this time. Doing research for these people will also net zero results.

City-based NPCs will now remember members of group two! They will simply be under the belief that group two members were on vacation/had a family emergency/etc. No consequences will come from them being away at their jobs or school or anything else!

Furthermore:

-Horses are now regarded as valid mythological creatures! So you get mildly less strange looks for talking about them.
-Photographs and text, online and off, now have the color blue again!
-Visual video media (online, in theaters, etc) now has the color green once again! This does not include text yet.
-There has been a new list of karaoke songs added to the city of Recollé! These songs can now be found in karaoke bars and machines all across the city and even can be sold on CDs for your own karaoke parties.
-The Crow's Nest now has locations across the world, including a brand new location right in the heart of Recollé! After August's plot wraps up, be sure to grab a bite to eat and say hi to Kenny Crow.
-Finally, the ocean has been restored! It's still gray, however. Keep working together to buy back world changes.

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.

Unity is key but how many of us are actually willing to unify our efforts for the sake of the same common goal? That's also another worry of mine. Too many different opinions, individualistic goals...just the works.

But how do we minimize the damage? I realize now that attempting to arrest Retrospec would only cause more harm than good but they deserve a jail cell.

Not certain what to do here. Law enforcement's participation in this endeavor is limited.

That's something you're going to run into with just about any group effort, though. Don't get me wrong, I get the worry.

And attempting to arrest Retrospec might end with something worse than this, honestly. Unfortunately a lot of this feels like it's going to have to be played by ear. Especially if people are still regaining things that we normally don't deal with on a regular basis.

Dunno if my perspective's much better. I'm just a bodyguard who's also a personal assistant.

Fair enough but that's just something I don't think I have the energy to deal with.

In regards to Retrospec, maybe I should just leave them be for now. I don't exactly like that idea but trying to run and gun for them when I only know half the story is detrimental. Despite how grimy they did us, Retrospec let it be known that without them---we're thoroughly screwed.

No, this is helpful. Looking at this issue from someone else's perspective is better than just doing the same old same old.

Don't think I'd be much better in your position, quite frankly.

That there's the main problem. We're dealing with a group that has more on us than we do on them. We're at a huge disadvantage tactically, and that probably pisses me off more than anything else. Can't really fight back when we don't even know what we're fighting against or the extent of their power, though the latter kinda was brought to light as of recently.

Glad I could help with that much, at least.
