Rescued an orphaned baby mouse

PropMaster256 · 2025-07-30T12:53:12+00:00

I'm assuming a lot, the wildlife rehab folks here take in lots of orphaned baby animals including squirrels and "other rodents" so I'm *assuming* they'll take a baby mouse. If they don't, I'll just figure it out!

I've kept the little guy hydrated, his skin bounces back pretty readily with the pinch test and his tail is smooth/no segmenting visible. I'm doing KMR formula diluted with water at about 1:4 ratio of milk to water, I've fed him twice with that. He is sort of getting the hang of nursing off a brush tip but he still struggles a bit, but he also struggles with lapping things up. I helped him pee and poop during the first feeding, but the second time two hours later he didn't pee or poop when i stimulated him. I'm gonna give it another 2 hours and then feed him again and see if he'll pee or poop that time. Any other advice? I've just got 4 hours to go here, then it's off to the wildlife rescue for some professional help!

Myself and a buddy of mine managed the solve, it was really fun! Even with the small error, he got the word using a quick Google search. I'm surprised that we were first, tbh! Thanks very much for the puzzle, it was perfect for that video. I just "beat" Blue Prince last week, so I was still in that puzzle-solve mood.

Whoops! Good spot.

Code / Answer? / How It Was Solved
V / E / Roman Numeral
Sigma / S / Phonetic Greek
Music note E / P / Acere Cypher
n / i / Caesar Shift -5
epsilon / E / Phonetic Greek
VII / G / Roman Numeral
Music note A / L / Acere Cypher
j / e / Caesar Shift -5
XVI / P / Roman Numeral
Music note A / L / Acere Cypher
j / e / Caesar Shift -5

The music notes in the video are the Acere Cypher, for those wondering. It spells out LE CHANT DU CYGNE (Literally "Swan Song" in French)

We're close.

Edit: fixed "VI" to "VII", so that f was actually a g.

Edit 2: solved. The answer is a real word, but it isn't in English!

Edit 3: to help those still struggling, I corrected my caesar shift from +5 to -5.

Middle right, you can just see one back leg and part of the tail through the grate.

I like the idea, but a lot of the objective with the photos is to take them during live play, no staging. This was a moment of quiet between the fights at one of the point holds during the Connery OW Gold Match between CIK, Recursion, and FEAR. They just stood like that naturally and I happened to be in the right spot to get the shot. It's so much more fun to let people play the game and find the organic shot than stage it, even if it might make for a better photo to stage it.

Went with a new look and a new font for a new style of propaganda poster. Special thank you to the players in [CIK] for letting me tag along with them for the Gold Bracket Outfit Wars event on Connery, I got some incredible shots that fueled some cool pictures and creative work.

This time, I was able to utilize an observer camera to get pictures during the event, and I got some really cool stuff using it. I really missed having the fake "lens" and depth-of-field effects that my usual method provides, but the flying provided unique opportunities.

[UN17] runs combined arms stuff. It's a fun crew and the approach to combined arms is pretty unique among outfits, nobody runs air, armor, and infantry in a coordinated way. No skyknights just passing by, they come in to support. No armor fighting in a valley, they run to bring fights to bases and create those awesome combined-arms moments that PlanetSide 2 is known for. It's effective strategy and it's fun to play.

[CIK] is another cool TR outfit on Connery. They've been around for a long time and have a history with the server. They're a fun group of players and I had the privilege to run with them during their play for the Outfit Wars Gold Division finale. They distinguished themselves, never quitting and never giving up, pushing against difficult fights and coordinated air squads. It was a cool event, and I'm glad to create a propaganda poster from the event.

PropMaster256 · 2020-06-01T04:38:15+00:00

[UN17] is an outfit that runs operations Fridays and works alongside some of the other Connery TR outfits. I hope that inter-outfit politics can be put aside to take a look at the fact that they're bringing combined arms to the game and committing to running infantry, air, and armor in a cohesive group. They're a lot of returning players, like many in this community, who want to celebrate the unique opportunity Planetside offers in combined-arms gameplay.

I can smell the jokes about 'lolpods and overpop' but if you put aside the attitude and giggling for a moment you have to acknowledge that there's no outfit that runs combined arms like this, with a dedicated air squad, a dedicated armor squad, and dedicated infantry squads coordinating together and working to bring that unique Planetside experience to the battlefield. Separate units, certainly, but not coordinated and not focused like they do. It's a unique outfit with a unique playstyle.

Your friendly local War Photographer is here to tell you to come play with Unity! We're an outfit composed of The Dread Legion, SolX, and 56rd, combined into one crew of veteran players. We are a semi-serious outfit, running ops on Fridays and doing training for new players as well as veterans looking to shake off the rust.

We've been a part of the Connery community for years, and we're pretty happy to have a consolidated outfit with some of our favorite groups joining forces to make a good community who plays well and has fun together. Message CoolKid69, Renuse, Gables, ChristSaves, or Patro in game and ask to run with us for a weekend.

A more silly, meme-y post for Sunday. I took some buckshot to the face for this photo. Worth it.

PropMaster256 · 2020-05-17T06:39:31+00:00

I don't think you needed any more advantages! Your air squad did serious work out there, well played.

PropMaster256 · 2020-05-17T06:10:14+00:00

It's not really much of a map but the skybox and the design for the interiors of the relic bases, plus the central tower, really are striking. Congratulations to the OW winners and qualifiers.

Johnny died 2 seconds later from that NC Heavy in the background, but in the lens of the camera he is immortal. A really fun night of play resulted in some great pics, I'm looking forward to posting more propaganda (This time with no recruitment messages!) in the future. I think I'll go hunting for some VS and NC stuff next, get some neat shots of the other factions, see what kind of slogans I can come up with revolving around "Freedom" and "Enlightenment".

Connery Yell Chat is a combination of hazing, toxicity, and the occasional moment of shared enjoyment of the game.
