CLOUDY DAZE OVER AND OUT
The Mad-scientist group worked long hours during the hot sweltering summer months and today announced at an Inworldz press conference that all poisonous remnants lingering from the red cloud that was covering our beloved AAcme City have dissipated. It is now safe to return to AAcme City with out wearing a gas mask. The scientists could not however explain the 'red cloud' or its origin and had no answers to what side effects may linger to those citizens caught in the mist. One citizen did report all his muscles were extremely stiff and he was experiencing lapses of memory and black out periods from time to time. When returning to your home or shop it was suggested citizens thoroughly clean their inventory using the 'delete' system. The scientists also warned of a rat problem developing, as they had to use rats to test the 'safe' mode of the city as they worked on the removal of the poison gases in the air. If you find a dead rat, dial 922 immediately and have a Krinzang robot perform the pick up and disposal of dead rat. Do Not touch any dead rats yourself! Also, if an infected rat bites you dial 922 (if you have time and administer the antidote within 2 minutes) if you care to survive. Stop by the Welcome Center at AAcme City South to pick up a first aid kit that includes the antidote for those having troubles with extreme side effects wreaking havoc on their bodies and mind or if you get bitten. It was also suggested that smoking of 'Wacky Tobacky' will make citizens feel much better. The scientists ended the conference saying they would continue to test air quality and watch the rats for any changes in their behavior. For more information contact your City Council members or Mayor Moon. It was also announced a city wide party to welcome every one back is being planned. Check newspapers for date and time and location.

Sleeping Beauty
A weary traveler arrived at IDI excited and scared as he told anyone who would listen about what he saw while passing AAcme City around the first part of June. He heard wind howling through the night, and smelled a scent so bad he became violently ill and had to stop in his tracks. He was miles from AAcme City but still the faint moonlight was like sunshine streaming onto a thick puffy cloud, crimson in color, that hung low above the city's skyline. He heard an owl screech slicing into the haunting silence. The traveler run away as fast as his short little legs would carry him, not stopping until he reached the next city. He was told to go to IDI and repeat his tale, surely somewhere there would know what to do. After being fed a hot meal he continued on his way. Repeating his tale once again when he arrived at the Welcome Center, everyone began asking the stranger many questions, none of which he could answer. Many had wondered what had become of AAcme City, as usually there is much commotion and commerce making the city thrive and alive. A plan was made by the wisest and oldest citizens of INWORLDZ to send out a search party to investigate this strange phenomenon. When the search party arrived the crimson cloud had dissipated but the awful stench the stranger described still lingered. The citizens of AAcme that were outdoors and visible were frozen in their tracks, like when a movie is paused, some walking down a sidewalk, others shopping in stores, some fishing off the docks and others enjoying a day at the park. After much discussion of what should be done, the wise men immediately radioed for a Doctor to come and examine the still life citizens. They also requested that a scientist accompany the good Doctor to AAcme City. Will the citizens be revived? will the awful smell be erased? and why, what or whom brought this doom upon AAcme City?

Moon Satoshi hears a blood curdling scream coming from the south part of the city.... she pokes her head out of the open window, with an evil grin she rubs her hands together before closing the window carefully.

The year is 2235....
Welcome to AAcme Steampunk City, the year is 2235. We are a group of scientists and builders. We are quirky and work restlessly against the Evil minion robots under the control of Zerika Jinng, a rogue robot (created by AAcme Fall at the height of the petroleum wars). He holds the key to unlocking our future, but no one can get near him. He is well guarded by the Krinzang robot army that police AAcme City. Beware of them. They may capture you and toss you in their prisons to rot away with the rats.
Since the depletion of petroleum and the rise of the Krinzang we all live in constant fear of being destroyed by the Krinzang or our own madness. The battle for control and to repopulate our city is a continuous struggle, but we will not give up. Our knowledge and belief in a better future for ourselves and our children keep us strong.
We have for now found an alternative source of energy in steam. Our resources are few but our scientists are clever. Looking for ways to create steam to power machines and crafts that aide us in our day to day lives and escape the ever patrolling Krinzang, has become a way of life.
((If you wish to live in AAcme City and role play with us we offer residential as well as commercial areas available for rent. For further information, please contact Mayor AAcme Fall or City Administrator Sunbeam Magic or Harbor Master Duderz "The Dude" Lebowski @ INWORLDZ http://inworldz.com/ ))
