one of the things I received from the first CTW was a library card, I'll have to see if I can find it somewhere and post a pic. I think there's one in the archives, I'll attach it here if I can find it.


here's a link to the pic in the archives

[Website] Library

[Kender]

Hm, is there anything we can do to help Sarah?

[konamouse]

AhA!!! This could be our mission.

This is a little bit SPEC and a little META, but definitely relates to the Library so bear with my logic:

As I was discussing with Max in chat last night - some old websites that we have noticed could not have been found by new folks just reading the comic. Which sites are directly as a result of the comic:
Start with AglauraNJ and Dale's Journal. From there we have the newspaper article leading to Marzent. We have the businesses like Dale's Synthasia, the Library, Del's, Hollow Needle, and we have Klepsydra. We also have Ashgrove Park. Finding Three-o-Seven would be sketchy - while there was the symbol hidden in one page of the comic, it wasn't noticed as graffitti the way it was in CTW1. And Mythosphere wasn't mentioned anywhere we can think of (unless it's the answer to Automatic Writing). So right now my SPEC is that Mythosphere is just the PM having a little fun with the veterans.

Back to CTW2 META: This is a different reality than CTW1. We have some same characters (but in different roles) and we have some "new" folks (who were dead in the other reality). It makes sense that the story is different. And therefore it makes sense that our mission would be different. Although it seems that the Marzanos are still the bad guys.

Dale is against the destruction of the old Library. Sarah is trying to save the Library. What can WE do to save the Library?

Maybe we could pose as an environmentalist group who has found swamp pink (Helonias bullata) growing in the immediate area that absolutely must be left undisturbed. The real Cranberry farm came under fire for diverting water and killing 50 plants.

EDIT: That's not the only cranberry farm in the area.

[Pixiestix]

Yes, the pine barrens are famous for the cranberry bogs {i don't think ever in my life i have heard anyone say "cranberry farms" - maybe it is a local vs non-local terminology thing, but it made me giggle} as well as blueberry bushes.

How about we start an "online petition" to save the library?
See, I have my own website, with NOTHING at all on it right now, and plenty of space... I could host a guest book script that would be basically the petition, as well as send e-mails to Dobbs if we want it to. I thought about using a free petition hosting site, but we risk band wagon jumpers who just want to sign something getting involved or depending on the validity of the site them requiring some sort of disclaimer about it being a "game". Let me know what you guys think.

Also, sidenote, i finally figured out why ong's hat sounded familier but i didn't have a clue it was a town - because it isn't. it used to be long long long long time ago, now it is basically a ghost story in the woods with one or two buildings... anyone up for joining me for a photo run?

If we go the endangered species route, this well-timed (4/21/06) 5-year study/review notice may provide some flavor text for the site.

I thought a petition would be a great idea so am all for you starting up one. Will definitely sign it. lol I've got some domains and can create a few aliases if we need more names.

I agree that the library has to play a major part in the beginning of things. In CTW1 the action that took place in the basement was some of the most intense moments. I only remember bits of it and have only a few references while looking through the past info - but I do know that Sarah was somehow imprisoned there and it was crucial that we helped get her out.

I wonder if the Marzano clan know the is something unique about the basement and want access to it.

[Dionysus]

I have also emailed Sarah, offering my help. I think its clear, as others have said, that this is going to play a very significant role in the events to come, whatever they are.

Pixie, let us know if you get that Petition up. I'm sure we'll all sign. Maybe even in-gmae characters will sign too, thatd be awesome

[konamouse]

I thought Sarah was part of Phyllis' house. Her artwork was on the walls?

[Pixiestix]

I should be able to have it up by tomorrow morning. I am almost sorry to say, I have a friend coming in from out of town, and a bbq today, so i'll be busy most of the day, but once it hits late evening, i can finish it - then trouble shoot it.... and by tomorrow it should {should being the op word} be in full working order... unless something goes wrong. then it will take until sunday.
