Pre-Compression ( 04/08 - 04/14 ) Buildings stand perfect, pristine, and totally abandoned. Lights flicker, lifts work sometimes and if you can find a radio or television all it repeats is the last few seconds of something, over and over again. Computers only display the page they were on, vehicles stand silent and unmoving. Weird flickers in the corners or your eye, like you just missed seeing something--or someone. The world of Adstringendum is as it was, seconds before compression. Note: Anything kept on your character when the event ends will be 'recompressed', meaning you might end up with a laser gun with a can of peas melded into the middle. Useful, no, but still cool, right?

Ten Years Later ( 04/22 - 04/28 ) Suggested by Kisa Flash forward, it’s ten years into the future of Adstringendum and you've been here all this time! What's happened over the years? Events, deaths, new friends, old enemies, marriages, all the dramatic and mundane happenings of the city, not to mention those older faces. After all, ten years is enough time for the scientists to have finally managed to fix that pesky time-compression problem somewhere along the way, right? The whole city (people, buildings, animals) are older now; ten years of history in Adstringendum. What have you been doing?

You know, I should know better than to be drinking something when reading your comments by now. In other words, YES.

I also want to suggest a Midas Touch sort event, but then I'd also want us to do it at some point, but then that would be IC and fit with the whole thing, but then it might be repetitive, but then we could do it sometime far down the line and ahhh, please?

And I would assume that various people/groups have tried to get out of AD or make it so that they have the choice of going or staying or trying to create portals between this world and their own, stuff like that. Inner City/underground incursion stuff. None of which have worked so far, but it's only been 10 years and there's been progress in other aspects like the whole small items in from their worlds thing.

>:3 Treee event~ And a Midas event would be awesome, yes.

And we could mention a couple new events during this event that would be good to use later on- so then, when they happen, people might wonder if anything else they 'remembered' could also happen? As long as it's not all of them, it shouldn't get too repetitive. Since no one's playing out the old events now, it's just experiences to refer to.

And things like that, yes. Nothing entirely reliable yet, but tiny connections to other worlds- progress, bits of hope.

[snarkypotions]

Volcano exploding Mt. St. Helens style? Or did we want a return of the dinosaur event except that the volcano exploded and wiped them all out?

I love the circular aspect of this event.

[cathartidae]

The volcano exploded dinosaurs?? :o

But yeah, maybe something like that- dinosaurs came back, but the entire world was late Cretaceous and hey there's volcanos/meteors/something on the way. A mini Armageddon.

And really, yes, that's one of the best parts!

[snarkypotions]

Yes. To your event summary. Because that is much more succinct than mine. XD

CAN WE HAVE FLYING CARS/SAUCERS AS ONE EVENT? Or people being able to walk in air? And having the event end mid-week b/c the Animus are gits like that?

[cathartidae]

Cool. :3 ...Also it'd be like the perfect Thalatte/Aelia event. "Fuck yeah awesome landscapes and critters! Also destruction."

And oh man yes totally. Flying EVERYTHING and yeah cutting it off abruptly hope you weren't hanging out mid-flight.

[snarkypotions]

"B-but... Oh, DINOSAURS!"

>3

How many do we have now? Spider Infestation, Forest Simulator, Midas Touch, Late Cretaceous-ness, UFOs, Grab Bag (including family event), Twisted Personalities... Do we need/want to come up with more?

[cathartidae]

That seems like a fair amount, at least to start with? :x Too many and it might just get confusing.

[snarkypotions]

Years? Family event about halfway through so.... Year 5? Personality Year 9. The others, I have no clue.

[cathartidae]

Oh, I don't know. Spiders year 2, Midas 4, UFOs 6, Dinos 7, Forest 8?

I'm fine with that. :x And if we/anyone else(?) comes up with more, there's spaces for them.

[mellowyellow]

You guys are amazing.

[cathartidae]

;w;

[mere_shopkeeper]

How are we on pregnancies/births for this event? Can get pregnant but probably still not uncompressed enough for a new human life that belongs to a conglomeration of several different worlds and universes?

Or do we want to let there be babies?

[cathartidae]

Presence of actual live births might be too obviously not-real for people to take it seriously afterward... Could always get creepy and people could only give birth to misshapen atrocities because of the effect compression has on the place.

Unless a lot of people really want kids again, for a week?

[mere_shopkeeper]

There may be a couple, but I'm not sure if any are planning on it reaching the actual birth/growth of the kid(s).

[cathartidae]

If someone wants to pop out a fish or something, that's cool with me.

Pregnancy should be allowed at least- I mean, I think(?) it's still(??) allowed normally?(!)

[mere_shopkeeper]

"....Thalatte?! Thalatte? Thalatte, is that you??"

Yeah, I think it is too? (!!?! :o)

[cathartidae]

"Hello there! A lot brighter out here too."

So that much is okay, anyway. (...!)
