<p>Judging by the feeds, everyone and their dog knows that things are a little bit messed up right now. On New Year&rsquo;s Eve 275, Lagrange went down and stayed down for one year, one month, and ten days. When it came back up, we didn&rsquo;t immediately notice anything changed in the fabric of our existence here. Sims are here, bodies work as planned, forking and merging work, sensoria work, cones of silence and the perisystem architecture work, the reputation market works.</p>
<p>What <em>didn&rsquo;t</em> come back, however, were a bunch of our instances. How many are missing is still up in the air. Dry Grass has counted more than two billion based on what everyone is saying on the feeds, but she&rsquo;s still going and obviously isn&rsquo;t going to catch those who won&rsquo;t be posted about.</p>
<p>She&rsquo;s spoken with a phys-side System engineer, and answers are pretty slim. They&rsquo;ve confirmed all that we&rsquo;re seeing, and say that they&rsquo;ve done their best efforts for recovering everyone. They&rsquo;re unable to say just what happened or how many people were affected.</p>
<p>So, what happened? We don&rsquo;t know. If phys-side knows, they aren&rsquo;t telling anyone we&rsquo;ve spoken to, and The System Consortium isn&rsquo;t talking to anyone but systechs. AVEC is unavailable, as are phys-side news feeds.</p>

<p>That means that, at least for the moment, those of us who aren&rsquo;t techs are on our own when it comes to hunting down information. Thankfully, Dry Grass is a systech! Still, information from <em>everyone</em> is useful. To that end, I propose that we start pooling our resources. Here are the things we&rsquo;d love to know, but if you have anything else to share, please do let us know.</p>
<dl>
<dt>How many of your clade are missing?</dt>
<dd>Stick with just your clade, and just the ones you know are missing. You can check by trying to ping them; it&rsquo;ll feel impossible to reach them if they no longer exist. If you don&rsquo;t know everyone in your clade, have everyone you do know do the same. If you&rsquo;re willing, full signifiers would also be appreciated as we start to build a list of just who is missing.</dd>

<dt>What percentage of your clade is missing?</dt>
<dd>Total up the instances that are missing, then divide that by the total number of people in your clade that you know of from before Lagrange went down and multiply it by 100. Once we start collecting enough of these percentages, we&rsquo;ll be able to average them out and get a rough estimate of how many on Lagrange are gone. The more we get, the more accurate that estimate will be.</dd>
<dt>List any friends you&rsquo;re missing.</dt>
<dd>Please give their full signifiers — name and tag both as they appear in the clade listing — so that we can weed out duplicates. These will be added to the list of missing, which will help others search for friends and family.</dd>
<dt>Do you remember anything out of the ordinary?</dt>
<dd>If you remember anything that feels weird, write it up in as much detail as you can. Maybe some people will wind up remembering something from before the end, as all of our memories stop just before midnight. Many of us mentioned a sense of déjà vu, though that may be a side effect of the System coming back online.</dd>

<dt>Any news that might help?</dt>
<dd>Have you heard any rumblings, either sys- or phys-side, leading up to this that might help explain what happened? Maybe you&rsquo;re still in touch with relatives back on Earth, or maybe you have archives of some feeds that we&rsquo;re still hunting for. The more concrete the data, the better!</dd>
