Not to add to the increasing load but I've another round of questions for everyone.

First of all, I'm sure everyone's been acquainted with the currency here. Chroma 🌑️ and Demichroma️ 🌓️. The people here seem very fond of the moon! Good taste (everywhere, honestly, LOVE the neon look 💙)

Who here has really gone through this thing? The bracelet they've given us, I mean. It's rather robust, I'm a big fan personally and might be working on a few things already. 🤫

Right - The point! Sorry. What I'm getting to is how many of you have been checking your banks?
Follow up: Rough estimate, how much do you have? Don't share the number, that's terrible security, dear God I'm leveling with you as a cybersecurity expert all I need is whether it's single, double, or triple digits
2nd follow up: Have any of you been doing any kind of work?
3rd, final follow up: Have you noticed when/where your balance goes up?

I'll go 1st: Triple #, no work, I may have a... few working theories

I don't mind helping out with the first part. The second... well, you'll probably have more luck with couples.

[For obvious enough reasons.]

[furrytrash]

JusT a singgle number for me. not suRE how monny is supposed to work heRe, but so long as theres food and shelterr, does it reallly matter??

[notblayde]

I'm sure I have no clue what you're implying.

We're trying to get volunteers to test it. Without experimentation, it's only a hypothesis.

[resound]

Just referencing your serial handholding habits. [ lol. ]

If that's all you need, I can help.
It's free money, isn't it

[notblayde]

Well, that's part of the problem solved. I don't know if any established couples were brought in, and it seems a little quick for any to have developed.

[notblayde]

[ Not. Even. Touching. That. he's already done enough touching obvi ]

That's another volunteer down.

[takingchances]

Yeah, that's definitely part of the problem. It always is when research broaches those topics though I imagine.

It might be something best shelved for now and looked into later once we've been here for a while. If we're even here that long, of course.

[resound]

So am I just sending you notes or do you have a plan in mind

You're a cybersecurity expert?! No way!

[ Not that she knows anything about the topic... As evidenced by the fact she was about to drop the actual number until he wrote, point blank, not to. ]

But umm I also have a triple number, no work..
And no, I actually only looked it up when I read your post! lol
Are you working on apps for this thing??

[bloodisthicker]

I’ll admit, I haven’t exactly been messing around with the bracelet as much as I should have, all things considered. It’s a lot more advanced than what I’m used to, so I’m mildly concerned I’ll break the thing. These... cyber things aren’t particularly fragile, are they?

As far as I can tell, I’ve gotten a relatively small balance, which is... disappointing, but I have been looking into information on various career opportunities to make a decision. What’s your hypothesis on the balance fluctuations, though? I’ve been checking daily, but I’d like to have some idea of what I should be doing.

So, “getting busy” is not innuendo where you’re from?

Could your phishing scam be any more obvious? Come on. What kind of expert would ask instead of just going in and checking?

[potential]

What are the theories?

[notblayde]

Is there nothing else you want in life than food and a place to live?

[notblayde]

One of the best!

[ ... Something like that, anyway ]

I know you were behind one of the booths, maybe they compensated you?
I am! 😄 It's already got a few of the necessities but there's so much it needs.

[notblayde]

Could I ask what year you're from?
These seem rather robust, thankfully! I've been conducting a few tests and my own has held up to a rigid and thorough examination including drop, pressure, and water tests.

The working hypothesis is that physical contact seems to make a difference.

[notblayde]

Excuse you? Phishing scams are child games for novices! God forbid a securities man have some sense of honor and ASK first.

[codecmoment]

Are you really that good? Just curious, since the systems here are different.

[notblayde]

Contact.

Nothing extreme. It seems as if even holding hands can trigger a deposit. It's yet to be tested though.

[notblayde]

Good enough to bring down an entire alien computer system under pressure of extinction.

[notblayde]

It is but I don't see where I asked?

[sometimespawnskillkings]

busy with, exactly?

[furrytrash]

well... no. but what else can wE do here? cant leave to hunt in the wild and all thier books are weird or boring or BOth.

[notblayde]

I was asking for clarification on what you were doing because the entire point is to figure out how we earn money. You're worse than the president.

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Sorry but “busy with, exactly” conjures up a mental image of a scolding authority figure asking one what scandalous antics they were up to this time. So I just can’t help reading it in that tone of voice and with those implications.

[Temple has never engaged in scandalous, sexy stuff himself but he has watched enough media for the trope to embed itself in his brain.]
