In the distant present-future, the Foundation of Time/Temporal Reconstruction is all but dead. The collapse of humanity started with a single ticket filed with the Records department - PURGE MANUFACTURING DOCUMENTS RELATED TO DEFUNCT PROJECTS. The automated AI assistant (O.P.R.A.H.) hit an ill-timed compaction, and PURGE MAN became her one directive. All humans were killed, along with any history that referenced them.

The only thing that survived was The Book - a payphone that fell through a time-hole and crashed in a seedy hotel in present-present Murfreesboro. Through its connection with FOTTR, it is the only thing that could allow the reconstruction of a new future-future using flags hidden throughout the present-past, present-present, and present-future. At PhreakNIC 27 you'll have the opportunity to use The Book to save mankind. Good luck!
