Midnight in Salem Saddened Me

I have played the Nancy Games since the wee age of 5 in 2000, gathered around the clunky PC fully engrossed in solving mysteries with my two older sisters.

Flash forward to replaying them all in 2015-2017 on my Mac- Midnight in Salem was being produced and then released in 2019.

First I found out my girl, the OG, was not voice acting anymore and it made me so upset that I didn’t have any sense of online presence for the sheer reason of hyping up the game prior enough for the importance of a known voice actor being well known.

Then this game comes out…. Which for anyone who went through it can hopefully just relate on what a wonky experience it was. It was the entire lead up also- me following the switching of engines and alllll the fuCKING DELAYS AGAHEKFFIHENS

The pro is it lead me to knowing this thread even existed and uniting me with Nancy Drew lovers worldwide. Playing it was saddening after all that on and off lead up. Of course things happen behind the seen but the gameplay was such a letdown I scrubbed it from my mind.

Because of this…. I sadly didn’t realize that a new game came out in 2024???? IM SO EXCITED?? I can only hope the inner company and design issues made it over the hump it had and this will be a better experience for me.

So…. Anyone else as impacted by a computer games release 😂 Did anyone enjoy Salem (I hope someone did)?

Shoutout to all you in this fandom!

P.S. I never knew there was Ned hate? I always liked them together 🤷‍♀️ Can I get more tea on that?
I like that he isn’t that involved, my girl Nancy is independent and gets to decide the kinda relationship she wants (at lease that why it never bothered me). I always want him to pick up the phone but thought it was more of a running gag 😂

P.S.S. I’m playing the Hercule Poirnet games on my Switch and the third installment is the exact kinda 3D oddness but since the previous ones never got the graphics to a point I liked it - it’s less nerving but same exact vibe and mouth movement as MIS. I just started it so that’s probably what lead me into this rant so thanks for reading 😂

Any Thoughts - Mr.MIA and not the good Pitbull kinda

UPDATE IT MOVED 6:59am 🙌 😭

I wasn’t even a member of this subreddit until a package last month got delayed. 😭

I received Priority Mail Express envelopes from Queens to the Nashville area often enough that I know the usual route and timing by heart at this point. My previous 3 Express envelopes all followed basically the same pattern:
Flushing Post Office → Queens Distribution Center → Jamaica Distribution Center → Nashville
and all of them had scans within hours of each other.
This one:
Accepted Thursday evening in Flushing
Departed Flushing around 6:30 PM
Then nothing for almost a full day
Finally arrived Queens Distribution Center Friday at 3:31 PM
Arrived Jamaica Distribution Center Friday at 8:36 PM
Has not had a single update since
What makes me crazy is that the delay started BEFORE Jamaica. The previous Express envelopes would already have been through Queens and Jamaica the same night they were mailed. This one took until Friday afternoon just to hit Queens.

I spent the weekend convincing myself it was just weekend delays and trying not to obsessively check tracking. By Monday morning I finally opened an inquiry with USPS because it was still sitting at Jamaica.
Now it’s Tuesday and the tracking page is still acting like Friday night was the last thing that ever happened.

At this point I’m less annoyed that it missed the Express commitment and dreading it appearing somehow at the end of the week. I have a flight Thursday and wanted it by then. Did an entire tray or dispatch get forgotten somewhere? Does mail really sit at Jamaica for 4+ days with no scans? Has anyone had something disappear at Jamaica and then randomly reappear days later?

The good news is you guys taught me about interception being a solution- thanks for that xx

Anyway, thanks USPS for turning me into someone who knows the scan times of distribution centers by memory. 📦😭

Moments that live Rent Free

I think about Mario being framed for murdering by the Mayor Penguins wife resulting in him being held in the town against his will 💀
-Paper Mario

Newly added I think about how a Bomb sacrificed himself with a flint from his friend that was kept in a safe
-Paper Mario Origami King

Randomly I think about how there was a Paper Mario that’s revolved around the concept of after life even having a River of Styx in The Underworld
-Super Paper Mario

Tell me; what are some moments that live rent free for you?

Packaging 😥

Ok…. Maybe it’s being spoiled by expecting anything this expensive to have a box like House of Cb, with some welcoming ribbon and luxury opening experience…. But receiving my first purchases in a random DHL bag after dropping 200+ on one item was not expected 😭 AM I ALONE IN THIS?!

Cupid Shirt Sizing Help

Hi! ♡ I’m interested in ordering the Caviar Cupid Top and wanted to ask for a little sizing advice because I’m unsure which direction to go with the corset fit. I’ve never owned any of their products and have just been a fan of the site just slightly waiting and looking at all you beautifies in releases until the day I decide I want a piece enough.

My measurements are:

Bust: 47”
Underbust: 39”
Waist: 39–40”
Bra size: 38-40G

Based on the size chart, I seem to fall into the 1X, but I’ve seen a few reviews mentioning that people sized up in the Cupid styles because of the structured bust/corset fit.

My main concern is the underwire and ribcage area feeling too tight: I am a big cleavage girl but not like to the point they’re spilling over and out as if I’m forcing the size to work. I also personally prefer when the corset lacing can close fully or almost fully in the back rather than having a larger gap showing between the panels. I’ve noticed some people wear the style with a few inches of open lacing in the back, and I’m trying to figure out whether sizing up would help avoid that — or if the proportions of the corset stay mostly the same between sizes.

Would you recommend the 1X or the 2X for this style?

If I really have to, I’d order both, but my wallet would really prefer not to 🤭

Thank you so much for your help! ♡

Cast and Tickets Advice Needed

Hello to all my fellow Phantom lovers 🫂 😊

( first question is has anyone actually paid for the dinner ticket and is the dinner good?)

As I’m most of you are- I am a giant POTO fan. When I was 9 I got the movie DVD and watched it on repeat creating a life long Gerard Butler fan.

I’ve also seen the broadway in Vegas, read the book, and seen every iteration movie wise.

Because of this…. I’m SUPER overthinking what cast I want 😭 If I could I’d watch every one but sadly my schedule doesn’t allow for it and my rent must be paid 😂

I’ve read reviews explains the differences from this thread (screenshotted in my 40k album somewhere) but want to get all of your opinions on it. Im sure they’re all good in their own way but which way do I want to experience?! If you’ve seen multiple I won’t mind the positives of both to help lean any which way. I won’t be “let down” either way but want to have more data to inform my decision.

Thank you for your time and I’m so happy it was extended. I joined the mailing list before it launched and have been idling on finally getting the experience!!!! I read all of your posts and am so happy that a well thought out event has been produced in a magical way to continue the story of the Opera House!

Cheers 🥂
