TECHNOEXPLORATION, open to all this weekend!
IT'S ME AGAIN; just wanted to update everyone on the exploratory trip to the center of the Hub that's upcoming this weekend! As a note to new players, this is perfectly open to you if you'd like to hop in!
Plot Summary: 9S (deem) is leading an IC effort to create monitoring technology on the Hub, which will give IC bulletins on upcoming weather, magical vibes, and natural resources on the island. The mods will OOCly incorporate this into their weekly posts when characters are on the Hub. Characters will need to troop up to the ??? on the Hub mountain for installation.
Previous posts on this topic were here (IC) and here (OOC).
Here's the timeline:
Obviously we will be handwaving construction a bit since everyone is occupied with the new character intro log, but that's what this post is for! Please just comment to the HELPFUL SUBHEADERS if you want to plot with us about how your character pitched in to help or learn to help build robots, or if they'll be seeing what's on the mountain this weekend. If you want to help but don't know what your character could do, comment anyway and we'll think of something.

Here's the timeline:
• Starting on Day 120 (Nov 4), any characters who were interested started working together under 9S's direction to make a bunch of technological components. In the end these will be combined to make a monitoring station and a cute lil monitoring robot.
• On Day 122, newbies arrived, everyone got flooded into the mansion, and there was a temporary time and parts shortage while everyone got situated!
• On Day 123, the parts shortage was resolved, and everyone in the mansion could begin a nerd slumber party to plan and build in addition to the ongoing general slumber party. 9S was on site to help direct things! Any character who wanted to get involved and hadn't previously had an opportunity was free to pitch in from this point on.
•On Day 128 (Sunday), a log will go up for everyone to see what the ??? on the Hub is and install things!THIS IS UP GO TAG IT

no subject
Also occurs to me late that I should throw down a comment here too. Been responding to everybody but please don't let that discourage other interactions or cooperation on this since it's a team effort.
9S comes from a background of being technology used for a similar purpose and with the technical knowledge to match. His kind build pods which is what he's proposed as the basic template for mobile data-gathering. This said! He's got some parts handy and the ability to display construction data/information on holographic monitors for others. And he's pretty excited to collaborate so changes, innovations, or programming people pitch in are all very good so far as he's concerned.
Mostly I want to lend him as a support/helping presence on this to facilitate participation. So if he can be used to that end either in threads or a handwave capacity hit me right on up.
