 		i noticed on the DOUBLE DEALER clip that the white sheet that is covering the body has blood stains on the corpse's wrist. This was also meant to of happened and year and a half before Al died.

also i was thinking that getting some form of chronology might be a good idead

Hi, pipboy! Welcome to the madness. Smile

The list of videos on the wiki is organized in chronological order, as best we can determine it. I'll try to put it in more of a timeline form later today.

Also, Scrappy's story summary puts the story in chronological context, again, as well as it can be determined at this point.

Hope that helps! Very Happy

 		I'm trying to catch up, as I only started following when I found the intellinuts page. I haven't seen anything mentioned about the Japanese text in the videos. It moves a little fast for me to read, but it seems to be the same as the English text/audio from the same clip. It's not all that complicated, either--they use a lot of hiragana and katakana, rather than the more complex kanji (which thus requires less training in the language to understand). Anyone figured out if there's more to it?

IMO, I think it's Japanese subtitles of the English. Looking at the EDOC Laundry store list, they've got a store selling the shirts in Osaka, Japan. I think they're just being kind to the non-English speaking part of the world. Smile

(and I'm a bit behind on the story section on Intellinuts... I'm missing 5 or so videos in there, but I put the summaries up on the wiki.)

Verily, you two are exquisite orchids...

But I'm at work and can't get on to IRC. And at night, #edoc is suspiciously dead.

Well, we need more patient souls who are willing to boot up their chat programs and just sit in there until we build up to the critical mass where it actually become a chat room.

Or, I dunno, we could all wait until the game actually starts. Wink

Otherwise it's just Scrappy and me in there, twiddling our thumbs and talking about how good we smell.

Oh, no, insectofloyalty, that was just a Public Service Announcement for everyone. Smile

 		tees.com
Went by tees.com today to ask about the EDOC shirts, and the poor girl, who had worked there a total of 2 days, had no idea what I was talking about. She was very friendly though and called the manager on the phone, who said there was some "problem with the shipment, something to do with C.O.D.'s", and that they should be in "in a day or two". She took my name and # and said she'd give me a call when they came in.

The place itself is a non-descript East Village hole-in-the-wall boutique-y kind of place across from Tompkins Square park. Basically, it's the place where all the New York Hipsters go to buy their retro lunchbox tees. Luckily it's only about a 10 minute walk from my job, so I can easily pop in if/when they call me.

Edit: Almost forgot...I picked up a postcard/flyer in the store, if you want to order a shirt online once they come in, use discount code postcard for 10% off, or mention the postcard for 10% off if you're shopping in the store. Just throwing it out there.

You can also get to it normally by clicking on "Hello! From Sally" on the main page of the Poor Richard site.
