In the interest of having it completed some time this century, I'm taking over the project to create a guide document for new arrivals.

[And he's starting it from scratch, no thanks to Chris.]

If you can tear yourselves away from telling ghost stories long enough to reply, I'm interested to know what information you found most helpful when you first arrived, as well as what you would have liked to know sooner rather than later.

[Mello is fairly technologically savvy, but he still had to puzzle his way through the new phone since smartphones are apparently not a thing in death note, so that's not a bad idea.]

What about the phone was the most difficult for you?

video to the disembodied voice

[Corbin thinks about it for a minute]

Tryin' to figger out where th' callin' folks part wuz. How th' cam'ra worked... I c'n tell ya how t' do that, if'n y' ain't figgered it out...

[Because why else is he not using the camera? It's a blank screen, that's just weird.]

permavoice.

[torrefied]

... I know how the camera works.

[He's intentionally not using it, because he's paranoid and secretive, and showing your face on a network simply Is Not Done by people like him. In the world he's from - Kira's world, where his face is one of two crucial things needed to kill him with the Death Note and he is a wanted criminal - putting his face on display is a stupidly suicidal move.]

Re: permavoice.

[crowboy]

...Oh. Well, I just figgered, since y'ain't got in on, ya might need some help with it.

[It's never occurred to Corbin, whose criminal record until very recently mostly consisted of harmless pranks and sometimes trespassing, that you would want to hide your face.]

Why ain't ya got it on then?

[torrefied]

[Dryly:] I'm shy.

[crowboy]

Uh huh.

[He's not really buying it, but whatever. If Mello didn't want to give him an actual answer then that was his business]

What else y' think's gonna be in th' guide? Hope summun other'n me had ideas.

There's a lot of information to be compiled, and I've had a lot of feedback from others, so yes. I plan to include everything that's relevant.
