Hahaha well…that'd explain it!For most of the ARG, I was working from this doc: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F-4drbJyXUWxFg_EzzBsrprzPciAtRdZ… had my full copy of Sentinels (and used it from time to time for art-based things) but for most of the stuff that relied on specific words and flavor text, I was using that doc.As I was, I accidentally got Micro Targeting Computer and Mega Computer's flavor texts mixed up. No one solved it because it was an unsolvable clue! Sorry, all.(If you look at Micro Targeting Computer's flavor text instead, you'll see the key I was talking about.)
So, so cool to see this as a worthwhile reference.
Christopher & Adam, if you guys haven't been publicly thanked before for sanctioning its existence & letting it come out of the shadows, please accept thanks now.

I'd like to thank PeterCHayward for showing me this doc again. I had been looking for it for a while.

When you open it up in a new window, look at the end of the web address. There's an accidental I at the end. Backspace that and you should be good to go. At least that worked for me.
Original link should work, but the quoted one has removed the paragraph break and eaten the "I" from "I had"
Thanks for writing this! It must have taken ages! I really, really loved the game and so did my students! Some of us were huddled around the screen being blown away with the amazing-ness that was happening in the community. It actually got my 5th graders interested in the game as a whole, so I bought another copy for my classroom and we continued to play it during their lunchtimes for the remainder of the year. Awesome job!

Have you introduced anything similar to this year's crop that's about to go away? Do you plan to introduce it to next year's group?
I just want to say the thread title reads like someone is saying "OblivAeon" and getting bludgeoned mid-word.
How do you know I wasn't?
Isn’t that basically, from what I understand, the gameplay?

Nah, I changed grades, so I'm with younger students that I toooootally would not want to have hanging around at my lunchtime, haha. If I was back with older students next year then I would probably do something similar, but I gifted the classroom box to one of the students who did a ton of help for me in tearing apart the old classroom during the summer break, so I'd need to get a new one.
