Daily Alpha Update: The Grey Zone
Posted by Professor Prepostera on November 15, 2013 at 2:00 PM
Hello there, Toons! I'm Professor Prepostera, one of the scientists at the recently-founded science facility, Loony Labs. I was asked to write this post today due to my thesis written to get into the labs- a study on "The Grey."
The Grey is one of the quirky phenomenons of Toontown. It is a very rare sight to catch a glimpse of it, thus it's nature even being unknown to us at the labs. Some have reported getting themselves into the distoonified area by literally breaking the wacky world around us through means of antisillions or glitchinitives. Those Toons -- the ones that have come back, mind you -- say that it is endless, with nonexistent gravity and a never-ending boundary.
Some describe the Grey as an area beyond areas, undrawn and unimaginable. As all of the Tooniest of Toons know, imagination is our strongest power and the thing that created the world around us. An area that is simply unimaginable is a scary thought, but a scarily intriguing one.
Will the areas of the grey ever be drawn and revealed to us Toons? Or are they all worn out, abandoned, and unpainted canvases beyond the likes of our Tooniverse? I'm not sure myself, but these are the questions we Scientoons ask at the Labs. Enjoy your update, everyone!

Maybe we can expand our estates and add cool things like pools and stuff to get rid of part of the grey zone in estates. Or open our own shops in streets?

when i was younger, i thought that if you went WAY FAR into the grey area in goofys speedway you would find funny farm. so i got some friends and about an hour into our adventure everyone suddenly stopped... and i wondered why? meanwhile they said they were moving and no one else was. we never found funny farm, but it was an interesting discovery, to find out that there is a point where it "stops"

The Grey area was always a mysterious desert, riddled with traps (Not really) and devoid of life.... SO, it obviously needed to be explored. I also came up with a knock-knock joke.. -Finally- 'Knock Knock Who's there Gavin Gavin who I've been Gavin trouble with the doorbell, so I had to knock.' Awful, Right?

The Grey is very easy to get to... The easiest way is to go to your estate and move the closet to the wall - any wall will do - and go through it... Many toons then put the stuff they can't fit in their house in The Grey...

What about the floating areas? I think people reached them by going in the grey zone, so hopefully you guys can fix that one, where toons float.

I just hope that along with the grey zone you also have the occasional green zone, especially for when you make the estates. Because me and many of my old Toontown friends would make videos, using the green zone as the perfect green screen. I love you guys for bringing Toontown back though! <3
