I noticed it too. I think it was just a production smell. I'll double check it later an inspect it. I know I checked it for UV and IR and someone here peeled the layers. Maybe it's a heat-reactive chem. Dunno.

Tidbit

I was watching the newest clip, and I paused on the yellow bot and realized he had all the playing card symbols (Diamond, heart, spade,club.)
Just a tidbit, of course.

Edit: And also, I was thinking, We got our first prize after getting all of the achievements, right? (Minus those who joined early.) Maybe we have to wait for another achievement or two for the next bit of swag?

Well, In regards to the smell, I just performed a heat test, no reactions. However, I unrolled my sister's and let it sit for a while to air out, I took a good whiff around different parts of it, and I think it's safe to say that it seems to just be the ink.

One of the first things I did was translate it, I posted earlier, but, I'll just post again.

Power. Destroy. Glory.

Oops! Well, since you're so good at this (which you are!) would you also mind translating the explorearobot?

I'm not good at it at all. I just know an army of people with nothing better to do but sit at their computers doing stuff and might decide to translate something if posted.

So I liquified the poster and placed in a centrifuge, but I can't use the mass spectrometer at the office until Monday. Y'all are just going to have to wait!

Ship the sample next-day-air to me. I can get an appointment for use tomorrow afternoon. After all, here, we science seven days a week.

My mass spec says that the printer hired just used bad ink.

The chemicals have started to break down because it is old ink.
The smell is zombie ink decay. Drool

*shudders* I have prepared for human zombies, animal zombies, zombie fish, and evolved rabies, but I have no way to deal with zombie ink.

I think I need to build a quarantine field...
