Anybody else notice that the names of the months here seem to go in alphabetical order? When I got here it was 'Fiddlesticks', then we had 'Grasshopper', and now we're in 'Horseshoe'. And I bet it goes farther back than that too.

Wonder if there's any particular reason for that? And what the next one might be called, assuming the pattern holds. Igloo? Ice cream? Inchworm?

Well if it works like a regular year, it'd start back over again with A. But this place? Who knows? We might end up with number months, or ones named after symbols, or just about anything.

This is so fascinating! I wish it was Z already and we could see the results!

Re: Video

Would be nice if we could just skip to that and find out, yeah. Though as it is, if we want to find out, we'll have to get there the long way.

I guess we have to be patient... Gotta admit, never been my strength.

Re: Video

Heh... it's never been mine either.

Though if I'm being completely honest, I'm kinda hoping to not still be here by the time we get to Z. Kinda got some important stuff going on at home.

Oh, right, of course! Me too! I didn't mean to imply...

Eh, it's OK, I know you didn't mean it like that. I don't think any of us plans to be here to see Z if we have any choice in the matter. Though if the past couple months are any indication, we probably won't.

Yeaaah, last month was a really good example of the "no choice" deal. Can't say I liked it.

Which part of it? The vacation part, the memory sharing part, or the fighting monsters on a desert planet part? Or did you just dislike the whole thing?

Re: Video

The middle one. Definitely the middle one.

No one should be forced to see another person's memories.

Re: Video

[hotheadwarmheart]

Yeah, that was... interesting. Can't say it was necessarily a bad thing, but a little warning would've been nice. Or a chance to opt out of it.

Re: Video

[sos_pilot]

I would have been okay sharing some things, but not others. It was really uncomfortable. Can't say I'd like to go there ever again, even with the candy lava.

I'm honestly not sure that was a normal thing? I mean the place was supposed to be some kind of big nature reserve/resort type thing, but frankly I figure the sort of thing we experienced would turn off a lot of potential visitors if it was part of the usual package for basically the same reasons you just said.
