My last intrigue in this game is complete - joining the Mop Squad to throw a bucket at God

#over/under
However ok this is a huge mood whiplash *Alcyone puts on her mop squad badge, and pulls out a heavy industrial bucket with a locked lid. She quickly flips open the latches to reveal what's inside. A strange liquid within seems to exist outside of reality as we know it. Some terrible concoction of water mixed with all the rifts in spacetime she could find. She somehow rotates 90 degrees from reality and throws the water through the 4th wall. Sam , you have been bucketed.

In other news I think I finished my art of The Tower for #over/under. Might tweak it more later but this is probably it
The tower XIV over a picture of The Choke from Prospero's Dream, a tower-like portion of a space station. There's also an eclipse

Resumed the #over/under jigsaw puzzle (unfortunately just the union internal one for now cause I'm getting more interest in that and also story line wise it's more clear to me right now)

I appreciate that they started by completing the most ominous part
A party completed jigsaw puzzle with the text "new! fall flavour" "Fall sounds bad actually. Like the end of the world" "it's delicious though"

I don't *think* this is spoilers
...how is "someone blew a hole in the roof of the union hall and our immediate response was to RP posting a job titled "Task: Repair Union Hall Ceiling"" not even in the top five funniest things that have happened in union chat today

still a work in progress but I'm trying to figure out this vector art thing

this is for a over/under game thing where we make tarot cards and I picked The Tower

turns out either the union is way more into puzzles or the marketplace is way too busy but the union has finished their puzzle

now I realized I have no idea how to represent the next one without it being the worst puzzle ever

#over/under
A sriracha assembly line and bottle photoshopped to be over/under themed it says "new" and also "available in the docks cafeteria and the carbon co-op cafe and probably also the o2 kitchen"

is the reference here clear

(for over/under)
"I want you to use threads" "organized conversations keep everyone in the loop" over top of a picture of an astronaut in space

ok back to making jigsaw puzzles and sending real physical mail in over/under

Here are my previous jigsaw puzzles, I can share them now that they aren't spoilers
Flavor synthesizer 2000 control panel which is a photoshopped set of arcade game controls, each button has either a picture of a food or a picture of a robot on it circuit board that says "flavor synthesizer 2000, for humans and android, guaranteed 99.3% safe"

the cafe is getting more decorated #over/under
as before, but with a tomato plant, a "just say no to bratva" sign and a sign saying "I want to believe" with a whale in the sky

Not sure if the artist behind the beetle painting is on here
A collage showing a coffee shop in an industrial space, like actually industrial not just interior design industrial, made mostly of crates. A large portrait of a beetle and coffee cup labeled with "AK_Ahab" is on one wall. There is a picnic table and for some reason a big lamp that says "pizza" hanging from the ceiling

#over/under I am getting a lot faster, if not better, at cutting images out of their backgrounds
a whale hovering in the sky above some trees with the text "I want to believe"

This is apparently what I'm doing this month instead of doing anything else with my life I'm actually supposed to be doing

I should probably do occasional self-promotion

I made a system-neutral supplement called Procedures to Discover the Path Ahead. You can use it to make maps (or point crawls or paths) that are semi-random, where landmarks change as you travel

apparently nobody made any normal train posters before 1929
A giant train drives over a tiny Earth which has the words "sunset limited" like the rings of saturn, space is rendered in loving detail with planets in the background. The motto "famed the world round" is also shown

Put up a new batch of public domain image cutouts, this time focusing on transportation:

Apparently in past they predicted that information would be transmitted through a series of tubes
text saying "the binding of the future" with cylindrical containers with the names of famous authors written on them and wires coming out of them

This project also included one of my best maps

This project was where I think 5 or 6 of us did an exquisite corpse type adventure consisting of a bunch of mini worlds which were all inside an art exhibit
