bde information: research!

Hello, brainiacs!

As you may have already guessed, there is a method to the madness of the Mad Scientist and it is going to be your job to find out what that madness is! As in some of our past BDE's, we will randomly distribute a few significant pieces of information to some of the research group that will be important in helping find out the why's and what's of the Mad Scientist. Those pieces of information will directly lead you to the motivations behind this attack.

Unlike some of our past BDE's, we're also going to distribute a few unimportant and misleading pieces of information to the research group in order to give as many people as we can a chance to find something and make researching a little more difficult for those involved. Emails with specific clues and specific dates have gone out so you know what to find and when to find it! It can't always be easy to catch a mad scientist, can it?

Starting Tuesday, March 23, researching will get rolling so we can get all clues, good and bad out there. The library will be open for all members of the research team to hunker down with books, computers, periodicals and each other to find out just what is going on. The pertinent pieces of information will be found all week, but one major one will be saved for Saturday's research session -- and all the clues will be passed along to our strike teams!

How will they be passed along? We're glad you've asked. From Tuesday on, a whiteboard will be posted in the library in the form of an additional thread that links to one stable post that will just grow and grow over the week. There, those who find their clues can write it down and anyone who needs to see (including members of our strike team) can say they've seen it!

Clue-finding schedule, just for your reference:



Tuesday
Spock
Jool
Francine Peters

Wednesday
Anemone
Claudia Donovan
Jack Priest

Thursday
Harper Finkle
Chloe Saunders
Jonas

Friday
Morgana
Naomi Wildman
Alex Cabot
Angela Montenegro

Saturday
Jack O'Neill
Summer Pitt
Sean Nast

Yes, this does mean everybody got a clue. Because we're occasionally on crack that way. If there are any problems with availability on those days, drop us a line ASAP and we'll see if we can't shuffle things around.

Health care passed and the sun has not fallen from the sky! I think half of my relatives refuse to believe such a thing!

I KNOW, HOW AMAZING IS THAT? People haven't taken to the streets to start looting, there's no martial law and general anarchy has not occurred. HOW NOVEL!

...And that was not in response to Health Care but that can have my glee icon too.

Free abortions?!? I'm gonna have two! (Do you really have to be pregnant first? Can't I have a pre-emptive abortion, just for shits and giggles?)

Today was the last time we had a teacher trainee teaching Italian, and starting Thursday we have our own teacher back. FINALLY.

Also, these DELICIOUS chocolate-covered wafer things with raspberry cheesecake filling were on sale, two euros for four of 'em. Om nom nom.

Also also, I got listen to a lecture about porn today. I love the things I study, srsly.

I am not a fan of raspberry things but those sound good anyway! Really, cheesecake just sounds good to me. I freaking love cheesecake.

And dude, my lectures were never that interesting. We talked about porn in relation to social deviance (oh, being a sociology major) and it was never exciting!
vanillajello: (Smiling and happy!)

Re: OOC

[personal profile] vanillajello 2010-03-22 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
We talked about how new forms of media have changed pornography through the ages, and how porn has changed media culture.

Yes, these are the kinds of things that make me happy. That whole class has just been made of win.

See, in the US, I think we'd have people FLIPPING OUT AT OMG PORN BEING TAUGHT because, you know, college is the first time ANY OF US have encountered porn. So, cut us off there and WE WILL BE FOREVER ANGELS.

It's especially amusing/sad (one of those) because um. Most of the history we covered today was concerned with the American porn industry.

YAY FOR LIBERAL EUROPEANS is all I can say.

See, in the seventies, we had a chick show up on TV naked and reading the news.

That was all we needed. :P

I have cookies!

Which are in no way as exciting as the brownies in this icon, but are very tasty.

Re: OOC

[identity profile] fratboybitch.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
What kinna cookies? Obviously, they are good cookies if they are making you happy but now I want cookies and I have no cookies. I have Diet Coke and half a pack of Starburst.

White chocolate chip! *shares*

And to add a second brighter point to my day, I got an email confirming my free tickets to the previews of Kaya Scodelario's new movie on Wednesday! Woo, free things!

Re: OOC

Oooh, good choice! I approve of white chocolate of any kind. Such an under appreciated chocolate.

ALSO NERD. Though, free, I wouldn't pass that up either. STILL NERD. I mean that affectionately. Nerd. :D

I do not deny that I am! :)

I'm convinced it's going to be mockably bad (because gang names like 'slaughter gurlz' and 'the paper chaserz' just deserve to get laughed at imo), but I DON'T CAAAARE.

HAHAHAHA. The z's make them SO MUCH MORE EXTREME AND DANGERZOUS THOUGH! Sometimes the laughably bad ones are the most fun. And it's easier to concentrate on the pretty.

Z's make anything badass and futuristic! I'm also gonna understand about 1 in 3 words because London slang is weird.

A wee little chickadee flew into McD's today and I helped usher it outside again, safe and well. That gave me warm fuzzies all day. :D

HAHAHAHAHAHA! The geese are badass! There's a few of them by my apartment that I stay away from. The ducks give chase but they tend to stop eventually. The geese will knock you the hell over.

Tylenol with codeine because I can finally swallow without wanting to cry for the first time in days.

ILU CODEINE.

I always have wicked bad hallucinatory dreams on codeine.

BUT YAY BEING ABLE TO SWALLOW (*refrains from dirty comment*)
