Well, youāll never believe this. Ā Mod Edgeworth recently brought something to my attention -- apparently, some of your letters have been invisible to us unless we use our mobile devices. Ā Because of this, a number of letters (dating back to February 2021) have gone unanswered until now, so if you happened to send a letter that was within the rules but still hasnāt gotten a response, well...thatās why.
The only fair thing for us to do now is interrupt the queue until weāve made it through these skipped letters. Ā A thousand āsorryās to everyone whose letters we skipped (and to everyone whose letters we now have to put off). Ā I mostly blame Tumblr for this, but I also bear some blame for waiting so long to get a smartphone. Ā Sorry for that, too.
Good thing we figured it out when we did, at least. Ā Enjoy some mobile letters, everyone!
So yes, it turns out Tumblr decided to pull an unforgivable prank on us. Mod Justice did try to tell us about this issue, but neither of us thought it was THIS bad. It wasnāt until Mod Justice sent an Anonymous letter of his own and sent it to us that I began looking into it, because I have been cursed with perfectly long term memory of when he brought it up the first time.
THANKS TUMBLR! HIGHLY APPRECIATED!!
Luckily, I was able to gather all the unanswered anonymous mod letters. Though, from this point on, we will only be answering anonymous letters until we catch up. We will notify you when we have completely caught up. This will not include Holiday letters. We sincerely apologize for this.Ā
This letter alone will include all of the Mod Letters Iāve compiled that were monthās worth. If I didnāt get your letter, I sincerely apologize. This will also mean that the letters from here on out will look slightly different, since we are having to use our mobile devices and log onto the Tumblr App. On the plus side, you will no longer worry about hiding your emails or identity, since the mobile devices hides them well.
Iāll let Mod Justice have a say, since he was technically the whistleblower. I sincerely apologize for not looking into this earlier when you first came onboard.
I knew there were lots of unanswered letters, but HOW DID THEY GET ALL THE WAY BACK FROMĀ FEBRUARY?!
(I should have kept my mouth shut...)
No, no, NO. Iām NOT going to be like that. Thatās just SELFISH and RUDE to all the fans who posted the letters in the first place.
Here are our responses to the following mod letters:
Mod Justice: Please do. It will be better for everyoneās mental health, possibly including yours.
(Seriously, consider yourself lucky Iām this generous. Otherwise, I wouldnāt have given the referenced letter a link here. You can repay me by following through on your promise.)
Dear Gumshoe āLettyā Fan,
You forgot to includeĀ āgive all your possessions to your Gumshoe.ā
Co-Mod: Just tell me where I can find those things, and itās a done deal, pal.
Co-Mod: You figured it out.Ā Congratulations.
Mod Edgeworth: How would I know? I submit letters by phone that doesnāt require any keyboard.Ā
Mod Justice: Iām sorry, but firstly, āChange is badā?! Really?!
You really need to re-evaluate your life if youāre going to have THAT kind of attitude.
And to answer your question: no, those letters are from theĀ āStone Ageā of this exact blog.
Mod Edgeworth: Mod Paups left.
Co-Mod: Yep.Ā Refer to this postĀ (the 5th letter from the top) for the specifics.
Mod Kristoph: Even if Iām not doing much for now, Iām still on board the team.
Mod Edgeworth: I LOVE poetry. I used to be a member of Starlight Cafe and submitted some poetry. I do write some from time to time.
Mod Justice: Heh, songs count, right?
Sarcasm aside, yeah, I can see how poetry can be appealing. I mean, so many of Shakespeareās plays have it!
Co-Mod: Well, I did...Ā Then I met āher.ā
In all seriousness, I do enjoy a good poem.Ā I grew up reading Shel Silversteinās poems, and still find myself remembering them every now and then.
Co-Mod: Well, heh...Ā Now you know.Ā *scratches back of head and grins*
Donāt worry about it, though I wonāt promise any of them wonāt get deleted, if thereās a ton of letters to the same character or the same letter to tons of different characters. If theyāre different letters to different characters, we will likely answer all of them, especially if theyāre anonymous.
What in the Khuraāinese Hells did I just read?
Mod Edgeworth: Itās been good. Actually, getting letters from mobile isnāt as hard as I thought.
Co-Mod: Well, let me put it this way...
On the plus side, Iām alive, healthy, and somehow keeping up with the balancing act known as adult life, so things could definitely be worse.Ā I hope the same can be said for you.
Co-Mod: Cars are writing letters now?Ā Man, I feel old...
Mod Edgeworth: Unfortunately, I cannot drive. Yes, Iām 29 and cannot drive. Sad life I live in.
Co-Mod: Glad somebody got it!Ā Their first names are anagrams of two other Shakespearean characters, in case you didnāt catch that.
Mod Justice: Khura-PUN-nese strikes again! š¤£
Co-Mod: Given that weāre dealing with this issue now...Iād have to say yes.
I donāt even know what Tumblr is doing anymore.
Mod Edgeworth: Well, if you tag anonymous please or write these letters, while logged off, then it shall be done. Though, since this is a mobile message, I doubt your anonymity will be as big of an issue compared to when it was on desktop. It doesnāt show your email address.
Mod Justice: They already are. š
Co-Mod: I never got into it, unfortunately.Ā Even an avid Ace Attorney fan like me can only devote so much time to every piece of fan-made content, but Iād love to see if itās as interesting as it sounds sometime.
Mod Justice: If itās basically the Attorney Online chatroom upgraded, then no. It leans too much into theĀ āroleplayā aspect of things, and I prefer to stay away from that sort of thing. However,Ā if itās NOT the chatroom, I am curious as to what it is.
I DO know what AO3 is. Look it up for yourself if you wish to find out what it is.
Mod Edgeworth: Iāve been to the roleplaying Ace Attorney Online, but thatās it. It was fun.
Mod Edgeworth: Weāll figure it out when we cross that bridge, hm?
Mod Justice: I will admit some of those are kinda funny... I might want to cherrypick a few to keep later, actually.
Mod Edgeworth: Miles Edgeworth Investigations 2. Though, Iāve yet to play The Great Ace Attorney games, so that may change.Ā
I love AA6 too, but AAI2 was consistent with its story and no character felt underwhelmed or left out. Even the most annoying characters there fit there naturally with motivations that made sense. Luckily, you can find the English patched DS cartridge that will play on a DS or DS Lite on sale, but if not, you can also download the English patch.Ā
Mod Justice: AA6. Not even a question. However, I didĀ watch several playthroughs of AAI2, and I gotta say...
CAPCOM, WHY IS THIS MASTERPIECE NOT OFFICIALLY LOCALIZED YET?!
Co-Mod: Iām with Mod Justice on this one.Ā I didnāt expect things to get much better after Dual Destinies, but Spirit of Justice proved it could be done.Ā The music, animations, story development, character dialogue, and the new Divination Seance mechanic were all incredibly done, and they even capped it off with a case that reunited the original duo and their original adversary.
Being able to create something so enjoyable for both the long-time fans and the newcomers takes some incredible talent, to say the least, and if you ask me, it paid off beautifully.
Mod Justice: Thank you so much, kind poster! That really means a lot to me.
And about theĀ āTrollĀ Submissionsā: Yeah... Hopefully, the person whoās been sending them will follow through on his promise to stop...
Co-Mod: Thatās fine, as long as you donāt expect the characters to act the same here as they do in that blog.Ā Theyāve got their Apollo, weāve got ours.
Woman, get outta here. We donāt need ANOTHER villain takeover after the LAST one.
Co-Mod: Since when do you laugh like Bowser?
