The description on the Koatoa Marine website - deep sea fishing - made me think about Cloverfield, for some reason.


OMG me too! I even looked at some of the old Cloverfield websites...just...well...because. Very Happy

 		The reason I also find a Cloverfield tindge to this as well is because the company that was drilling was apart of that viral, on a side note maybe J.J. Abrams well make one or two or a few of these "store" locations real and then we can have a REAL SLUSHO anyways it is possible that these are all human [or whatever they call them selves that far in the future] colonized planets and maybe they had to leave earth quickly and ended up screwing over anyone left and still alive, so maybe they are coming back to help the Earth-ling Humans one of my Ideologies with this one.

 		I really like the futuristic vibe of this Smile

The fact the phrase was "born from earth" and not just "humans" or something makes me think all the planets are colonized by humans and people identify by what planet they were born on. Or it could be just because "born from earth" sounds awesome Razz

PS: Still no bounceback from akumahaleSPLATkoatoamarine.com so it seems like a legit e-mail!

 		I just got an e-mail in response to me requesting they refund you guys because of empty cans.

Hello!

My name is Richard Kai, and I'm happy to personally assist you with your inquiry. On behalf of everyone at Koatoa Marine, we'd like to thank you for getting in touch with us.

I'd also like to apologize for taking two days to get back to you. This past Wednesday was actually Oceanus Day here on Oceanus, which this year, celebrates 61 years since our colonization. Don't worry, it's easy to forget the holidays on other planets! I'm in the office today but most of the company took a five day weekend.

This is not the first email I've received about an order having empty cans. I'm shocked at this unacceptable accident, and will be looking into it today and will be speaking directly to the Packaging Director on Monday. Of course, we will be refunding their orders.

Thank you very much for the information, it is very kind of you to let us know how we can improve.

Have a great weekend on Earth!

- Richard Kai
Koatoa Marine
Kariyo. Oceanus


So Wednesday, August 22nd on Earth, was Oceania day.
We know that our weeks align, at least?

Hoping everyone will soon get a reply as awesome as Richard Kai just wrote:

My favorite is Razorkan as well! There are other varieties but they simply don't have that same...it's hard to say what it is! Razorkan is just amazing, it's as simple as that.

I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean by "other forms of payment." We only accept the standard for currency across the Union.

And yes, our first-time customers always receive a 10cr coupon for our physical locations, however seeing that you are from Earth, I understand that may not be very valuable to you.

I hope that you can one day visit Kariyo. I'd love to visit Earth as well. It's a shame that we are unable, although I'm afraid I need to end my political discussions there.

Have a great weekend on Earth!

- Richard Kai


EDIT:: Kai means "the sea" in Hawaiian and Hale means "house/dwelling"
