Request from Clara

Last night in chat, you guys said you'd help with my thesis in some other room. Thanks for doing that, but I'm not comfortable in the chat room. It moves too fast for me, and I don't type very fast or well under that kind of pressure.

I could use the help focusing my thesis, listing out my questions, and anything else you can think of.

I'd also like to better understand the story in between Madison's videos. I'm trying to grunt through the forum posts, but they are confusing. I can't see how you all keep track of it. I guess you had to live through it to really know.

Tracing her steps is a complete direction change, so I'd need a LOT of help from you all if that's where you feel I should go.

I need to think about it some more.

I split this off from the original conversation out of fear that it was lost in the discussion.
Let's get focused and help the girl out.

EDIT: I un-stickied some of the Chapter I threads to make room for the newer threads - pending a new subforum.

I think you should definatly retrace her steps, and theres alot of people here who would be more than happy to help you do it (as well as help with the questions and focus of your thesis.)

It is a complete direction change, but its one that should be done. Theres alot going on with Maddison and adams deaths that is still a mystery.

We need your help to solve this mystery, and we will offer all the assitance we can.

I think you should pay attention to your advisor - that is what he is there for - to help you pass your class. He gave you this assignment, and he is the one who will be grading it. What does he want to know? What do you need to do to satisfy him so he will give you credit for this assignment?

ETA: Has your advisor outlined any guidlines for you on this project that you can share with us? That might help us understand how we can help you.

I am not sure if we should change your direction Clara.
You came here with an intent and asked for help, and we are turning it into something else.

"Tracing her steps is a complete direction change, so I'd need a LOT of help from you all if that's where you feel I should go."

If we change the course in a completely different way than was intended initially we may not get any answers.

I think I agree with Luminous, get some input from Arscott before changing plans so significantly.

A bunch of us are helping you out with this right now! By tomorrow, you'll hopefully have something to look at that will give you a better understanding of this and we wholeheartedly hope it will make things easier for you.
