meta:history:fountain [2024/01/29 07:07] – created. (This was inspired by some of CMJ's musings on community management, but i've omitted a link for now as i'm not sure how he'd feel having his socials plastered here.) clarissadunstmeta:history:fountain [2025/12/01 05:40] (current) – kestrel

 The NewHome Fountain exists if you know about it, and it doesn't if you don't, and both interpretations are correct. And while the fountain is(((Probably) ))the only bit of improvised player continuity to have been outlined in the code, it's far from the only island fixture that both exists-yet-doesn't. The NewHome Fountain exists if you know about it, and it doesn't if you don't, and both interpretations are correct.

-There was a time when everyone knew who Horatio was without needing to look at this wiki. There was a time where players accepted there was a cafe in the [[places:outpost:building:commonground|Common Ground]] manned by a Typo Gremlin named Cookie. There may have been a cocoa stand on the [[places:jungle:Failboat]] for a while, just as there may have been a giant murderous ice cream machine back in the days of the [[meta:history:pilot]]. These bits of continuity aren't used as often nowadays, and this editor likely wouldn't know about any of them if it weren't for the ramblings posted on the [[meta:history:oldwiki|old wiki]].+There was a time when everyone knew who Horatio was without needing to look at this wiki.

 So - if you enjoy your time here, and you want to share it with others, you are invited to write it down. Don't assume people will know about it forever. Sneak your in-jokes into outpost pages. Write whatever the hell you want about monsters. Dump your [[gameplay:story]] logs in appropriate namespaces. That's what this wiki's for.  So - if you enjoy your time here, and you want to share it with others, you are invited to write it down. Don't assume people will know about it forever.
