Ho, ho, ho, to the bottle I go
to heal my heart and drown my woe!
Rain may fall and wind may blow,
and many miles be still to go,
but under a tall tree I will lie!

This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address occurred during the same week.  This is an ironic juxtaposition of events--one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, while the other involves a groundhog.

"Frodo failed.  Bush got the Ring."

There's really a whole number of different sources for Transcend's story, but you'll have to just play it to fully understand it. I'd recommend playing Sync beforehand, and if you wish to continue this via PMs, I can give you a couple of other things to see to fully understand it.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

I've played it twice through, but I'm curious, what are the "other things"?

Oh yeah, I also played Sync all the wat through.

Re: What is the Backround Story on Transcend?
Spoilers in black since the tags don't seem to work:

Actually, the only other big one that I've stumbled across is the movie Event Horizon. The Event Horizon uses a gravity drive to go great distances in space, and goes missing for several years (much like the Sync device and the fact that the Persistence crew is registered as MIA for three whole years).

The Generation in Transcend seems to be similar to Sam Neil's character in the movie as well; Neil's brought back by the ship because "she won't let him leave" and the Generation is brought back by the Transcendant because "memories never die."

The mysterious transmission detected by Omicron in the nebula is also similar to the Event Horizon's distress call: both say help/save me through terrible distortion and loud howls/screams. Probably the most obvious reference is in the Transcendant's transmissions in the subspace mission, though: "Do you see?" and "No!" are Sam Neil's last words in the movie.


But, no, I haven't thought about it much. :nervous:
