The Consequences [Concluded]

[Greyblades]

Whats so important about finding snack food?

[Subotan]

There was something about donuts in Rosetta Stoned.

[Greyblades]

You know I just had a thought, seeing as the internet is full of people analysing pretty much everything we might be able to squeeze afew clues out of the song by searching the band's forums. In game of course.

[Double A]

Greyblades, have you ever had a Krispy Kreme donut?

You don't want to know.

Actually, I do. That's why I asked

[miotas]

Krispy Kreme's doughnuts way too expensive for such a small piece of pastry.

[pevergreen]

They may be cheaper over there...

Tell you what though. I don't enjoy paying $3 for a bloomin' iced donut from Donut king...

[Double A]

Since when do you pay three bucks for a donut?

And isn't it like eight for a dozen?

[Stildawn]

Again we are off topic lol

$2.80 for the small one. For the big yeast one, a bit more.

Cinnamon ones are... 12 for $10 IIRC.

of course, thats just around where I live...

[Double A]

Wow your donuts are pretty expensive...

[GeneralHankerchief]

You head east. You don't see any internet cafes in sight, but eventually you come to a public library. It's a modest building, clearly not the biggest branch in the city, but it will serve for whatever you have in mind.

You enter the building. Would you like to look around?

[Double A]

Look around real quick.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Directly in front of you is the reference desk. Behind the desk begins the shelved books. To your left is a cluster of computers, and to your right is the checkout desk with library staff offices behind it.

[Greyblades]

Hmm lets see, if I remember correctly, some american public libraries have a password system for the computers.

[Shaka_Khan]

Look for the fashion books section.
Find a woman/women reading a book there. Can a woman total.org member act as that woman in the library?

[Subotan]

Go over to the reference desk, and ask whether you can use the computers

...

[Double A]

Yeah they're all password protected.

We can probably get a membership for free. I know five bucks can get you a 30 day one though. I probably was at this library two months ago

[GeneralHankerchief]

Apologies, I've been down with a case of cabin fever/RL drama these past couple of days. Things should be moving rather swiftly again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You approach the reference desk and ask about the computer policy. The librarian indicates that you need a library card to be able to log on, or if you want temporary access, it's $2 for two hours.

[Subotan]

Pay up, log on and open up Firefox

[Captain Blackadder]

I think a good thing to do here would be set up a website and make some kind of challange to the internet to find out who we are. Something along the lines of http://dvice.com/archives/2009/10/find-10-balloon.php except instead make it find my name/birthday/occupation.

[GeneralHankerchief]

You pay up and make your way to the computers. Lucky you! There is one spot available. Unfortunately, it is next to a 40-ish year old man with very long hair who appears to be looking at "artistic" sketches of nude women. Oh, the library attracts all types of folk.

Ignoring your neighbor, you log on. Unfortunately for you, the library's IT guy is definitely not earning his pay. The only available browser is *shudder* IE6. You open it up anyway.

$2 has been removed from your inventory.

[Greyblades]

Search the local news websites for any missing persons stories.

[Double A]

What's IE6?

(add-on orders)

In another tab, Google Krispy Kreme donuts Phoneix AZ . And in another tab, use Dogpile to check for Umbrella or whatever the corporation we read about's name is.

[Joooray]

IE6 would be Internet Explorer 6 ... so no tabbed browsing. Like in the good ol' days.

[Greyblades]

I thought this was supposed to be modern day not 1999. Wow this library is underfunded.

[GeneralHankerchief]

You go over the local news websites to see if there are any missing persons stories. There is only one: A six-year-old black girl was abducted last week when she was separated from her parents playing in one of Phoenix's parks.

You highly doubt that this is you.

One hour and 40 minutes of computer time remains.

[Greyblades]

Spread out to state News, country wide new and if all that fails check out sites from other english speaking countries.

[pevergreen]

One hour and 40 minutes of computer time remains.

It took 20 minutes to load the local news?

[Beskar]

The internet was on 56k.

Go to https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/ then head to the gameroom section and read this thread.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Your search of missing persons comes up empty.

One hour of computer time remains.
