I think something's up with the PM-- Bottan hasn't been on Skype since the 15th, and he hasn't updated his myspace since before then (neither have jacob or lucid, i don't think). Computer crash would be my guess, or something along those lines.

If someone out there needs a pic to send in for whatever reason, I have a perfect picture for task 2.. FYI

I'm still here. It would be nice if there was still some story going on while we do these silly tasks (and if the tasks were more realated to some story element.) Part of me wants to just move on, but another part of me is thinking, "Maybe there's something we just haven't found yet" or "Maybe the PMs are going through finals week right now or something." I really hope this doesn't sputter out.

I am still here! I have just had a week from hell at school. Hopefully I will be able to do my task soon though.

My dad: What are you tying onto your bass?
Me: ....a bow tie.
My dad (thinking he's being very witty): Why? Does it have a formal dance tonight or something?
Me: ...

My sister: Why are you tying a purple sausage onto your bass?
Me: *twitch* *twitch*

I'm very bad at crotcheting, so it took me FOREVER to make. If Bowty says that this photo doesn't count, I'm going to have a serious hissy fit....

EDIT: This was my email to Bowty. I feel a lot better now that I got that rant off my back.

Quote:

Dear Dr. Bottan, I present to you my completed Task #2. As you will note, my crotcheted bow has been tied onto my double bass, as opposed to a person or a statue for the following reasons: Most of us don't have time to go out and tie a bow tie onto some statue in the middle of a city, and we'd probably be arrested if we did-- not to mention the fact that a lot of us are ticked that you gave us such a ridiculous assignment. I myself consider rather an act of disrespect to give us (as Miss Wish so rightly put it) a task resembling 'kindergarten busy work'. We will complete your tasks with only the amount of work and respect we feel is due to it. Sincerely, Alice

LOLZ-- there's no way I'm doing an actual bow tie. I'm going to single-loop crotchet a little stringy thing and tie it around my double bass. I'm not tying an actual bowtie xD

I believe everyone else might have given up.. I was instructed not to participate in this one. Sylvia said in a different thread that she won't be online for a while. Don't know the status of anyone else.

Is anyone else going to do their bow tie? There is another money video - folding it a different way if someone is lost on ideas.

[natas]

The last word I got from L.U. was to await further instruction, but I say "Go for it!" anything to keep this one moving.

[nextday]

No I have not received anything either. Should we email them something like... "Hey Natas told me you needed some undercover work, what do you need me to do?"

Obviously it would be worded better haha

Nope, nothing from them, or the Doctor for that matter.

Anybody send in the task yet? I was gonna do mine later this week.

LOLZ no. I'm going to try to do it on Thursday. There's, like, no statues where I live (with the exception of a gigantic spinnable cube that U of M students push for good luck before their exams-- and it's too enormous to tie a bow tie on it xD), so I'm just going to tie it on the neck of my double bass. Screw Bowty and his statue idea.
