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. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and 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.

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. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. 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. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

Luke Castellan I don't think so. pretty much anything else I have on my phone is stuff either I signed up for or my sister signed me up for without me paying attention to it. I know apps can update on their own but usually you have to have the app first.

"cutting edge algorithms" doesn't sound too promising either

Aria Brandudy Maybe your sister did sign you up and forgot to tell you? But that doesn’t really explain everyone else expressing their concerns, does it?

I don’t really know much about algorithms, but I do wonder just what sort was used to decide who would be a part of this test or not.

Luke Castellan that's possible but it's hard to say when I keep trying to show her the app and the whole thing disappears. multiple times. that part still weirds me out

anybody who isn't concerned right now has to be crazy, you know? some people are speculating already what was used to determine our testability but we're coming up short
