WOAH, what is this witchcraft?! How'd you know to do that? Is that just some well-known trick that I was unaware of?

Thanks Smile

Yeah, it's pretty well known. It's always worth a try. That or cleaning out your cache/temp files Smile

And we are go!

You are in a clean room, standing on a red rug. In front of you is a nice door. To your left is an old, leather chair. To your right is a kitchen table large enough for four, with two sturdy chairs at either end. On the right wall are a sink and one cabinet. On the back wall are a gas oven and two artistic pictures. On the left wall are a queen-sized bed, a nightstand with a burnt-out candle, and a wooden dresser.
You notice that some numbers are carved into the nice door.

Welcome to Transition Village! This is the abandoned Physician's House. You have a purpose here; try to figure out what it is. There are ghosts, so stay on guard. If you see other travelers along the way, be sure to say hello! Any changes you make to the town are permanent until someone else changes them, so please be considerate... and careful.

Due to high interest, your name has been placed on a waiting list to enter Transition Village. Expect to arrive in a location as soon as one becomes available. Thank you for your beautiful poetry. The Governor was quite pleased and has spent the entire week in high spirits. We hope to see you soon. In the meantime, feel free to communicate with the village through our newspaper.

Nice! I had no idea about that!

F5 refreshes the screen, too.

Dang - I'm on the waiting list, too. Sad

And here I was all ready to save another dragon.

Me and my fat ride!

Quote:

You are in a large motorcar, sitting on its wide, vinyl seats. There is no top, and a light breeze blows through your hair. The thin, black steering wheel is in your hands. In front of you the engine hums. To your right is an empty passenger seat and a glove compartment. Behind you is an empty back seat. Just to your left, outside the car, is a well.

You notice that the wooden dash of the car displays an elaborate carving of numbers.

Welcome to Transition Village! This is the Governor's motorcar. He has provided it to you in the hope that you will observe and report on important events for the Transition Times. You have an additional purpose here; try to figure out what it is. There are ghosts, so stay on guard. If you see other travelers along the way, be sure to say hello! Any changes you make to the town are permanent until someone else changes them, so please be considerate... and careful.

That's right... I have a car! <3
