Working on the Dev side task. Gonna be interesting.
Will get to the research, later, but will send off a couple questions first. Let you know if I get a reply.

Cult research

I have submitted my research paper to them this morning. About a page worth of research was done, and info properly sited, just not APA format. Working on the Developmental task now, very brief with a pic I had found for a doom device. Once done, I will tweet a few times this week, and wait for the next assignment. I actually am back in college now finishing my Bachelors degree, so I need to concentrate on those papers, but these were really fun.

I'm going to have some fun with this... A mix of corporate espionage and movie science!

I just asked the staff what the rankings mean, and why we should need them. Not really important, just figured we could use some info on the rankings.

I sent in my application for both Research and Media but have only gotten one message. I know that everyone in development got the research email to help you all out but I was wondering if anyone who was research and media has gotten a media assignment as well.


Also, I'm jumping on the wagon of " This connection with the current events in the U.S. is awesome!" I'm really impressed so far by this. Now I have to get my research done!

i sent in a preliminary report last night as well and noted I will send a detailed report by the due date

and then I just checked this morning and my preliminary report is a page and a half long

so this begs the question: how are the pm's going to manage all this output?

we already know there are well over 100 participants....many of which were sent 2 email requests

even if only 1/2 of us sent in 1/2 a page of research for each email (and that is a really low estimation in my mind considering how many of us already sent in 1-2 page preliminary reports since last night--and in the middle of the night even)--that is quite a lot to read and take in and reply too

i would hate to see the game crawl to a standstill because the pm's are dealing with 100's of pages of research :/

in an unrealated note, i also begged for more information on the group that tested on the birds, saying that as a researcher, I need all the information I can if I'm going to do an accuarate and thorough job...let's see if they throw us a bone

ETA: I requested to be in research and media and recieved only one email as well (from Nelson Fuller)

I think a bit of both would be OK. They ARE going after supernatural stuff. Don't know what type of real gun you could kill a ghost or whatever with, plus doomsday cults always involve some mystical element in RPGs and whatnot.

[BitGamer]

I went for a more realistic bent in my responses. I actually disagreed with the possiblity of a doomsday cult; most don't have the money or people to engage in advanced weapons research. I actually did bring up the possibility of Scientology (cult-like, lots of money and people, and creativity to boot), but I dismissed them since the end of the world is not good for Scientology's business. I instead suggested the possibility of black budget projects or a foreign government or something along those lines.

Also, did anyone else recommend an incendiary trap for the zombirds?
