Besides this Shanna left Twitter ... Sad


Whoa, I almost skipped right by this. I haven't had access to Twitter for the past couple days, so I missed anything that might have went down over there. Any indication why Shanna suddenly had her Twitter account yanked? Have we had any communication with her since then?

Also, I sent an email to Craig, just introducing myself and congratulating him on his work. I figure if you feed people's egos, they tend to respond a bit more favorably. Razz Is there any particular reason why we shouldn't refer him to the sunshinemine15 site, or ask him what the date is where he is now? I know there was discussion on that before, but I don't know whether or not that ever happened.

EDIT: Looking for Shanna's Twitter, I came across someone who seemed to be rather interested in her... Bernd Post. Intriguing, no?

Ah, my mistake. For some reason I thought that was the name of one of the guys that IRIS overheard talking from the future. Guess I should read things a bit more clearly!

I saw that sent a tweet Saturday saying something like "Saturday what to do?" I wasn't able to tweet back.

She had mentioned her Dad had told her she couldn't tweet anymore but she was playing the rebel child. So maybe she got busted.
edit: busted by her Dad.

Replied back, trying to explain a little of how we're er... 'working together' with Craig and mentioned Wulf's concerns about Fred, though who knows what it'll do, since she's apparently not one to stay glued to her pop and all.

Hm, I guess everyone realised that the text on the airlock picture means "Sunshine Mine Platform 15, airlock 477, camera 3". Just pointing it out so that I feel I'm doing something.

Also filing off an email to IRis, asking for information on Platform 15, the IRis Dev Team, and a definition/description of IRis itself, through IRis-inspired plain-text requests, since we know she can read and understand most commands even in plain text.

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mail.gmx.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

irisSPLATsunshinemine15.com:

Oh, and why does the full IRis email address get turned into just <iris> on this forum?
Thanks, Wulf Smile Fixed it for aesthetics.

It did the same thing to me, when I tried to cut & paste the entire email to the forum. Within those brackets apparently it removes it. Either remove the brackets, or just re-type it out yourself.. Smile

This isn't the first time we've gotten bounced emails from Iris, so it's not too surprising.
I'm also agreeing with whomever (sorry!) posted the theory that CR finally caught on to Shanna's Twitter account and shut her down. Luckily, she is still in contact with Classical via email.

I haven't heard back from CR either. So I'm guessing we're either in a downtime - or more likely - we've missed a clue to something (at least that's my frame of mind after "I'm Sorry" - whenever nothing appeared to be happening, it was typically because we were missing an important piece that we had been provided clues to. Or there was another part of the story we could pursue, but missed..)

=edit=
I finally got around to sending all of the emails that were forwarded to the sunshine account to CR. And as I was rapidly going thru them forwarding them, I noticed that some of them were actually transcripts of our first few contacts with Shanna - I hope this doesn't get her in too much trouble with Dad.

Fired off an email to Craig asking about a couple of the other characters we've encountered as well as a question about his fluid computer. Trying to build a report with him.

New song too.

No Bravery by James Blunt

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel and accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
