Non-existant.

I'm sure Max or Nate would know where Oddmobb is.

I can imagine OWI like the Enemy's Secret base off the Bond films. As we speak. Lorne is making CS inside a Volcaino.

I imagine if they even have a base of operations yet, it would be in California.

OWI was in Lorne's basement for a while I don't know where Oddmobb is but I suspect it isn't too far from it.

Either a sub carrier disguised as a gigantic oil tanker or an underwater base. There is also the possibility of a space station but that movie sucked so I really hope not.

They are hiding within the electric eye!
Here's what lorne sent me in an e-mail:
Up here in space
I'm looking down on you
My lasers trace
Everything you do

You think you've private lives
Think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape
I'm watching all the time

I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean

I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye

Always in focus
You can't feel my stare
I zoom into you
but You don't know I'm there


What we know from this: lorne is a robot and is hiding within the electric eye in the sky!

I'd base my operations out of a skyhook, but that's just me. I'd acquire the funds from my Steam sales. No discounts or special offers with me in charge!

Though as of April 2008, their old offices still had 'Oddworld Inhabitants' written on the front and back doors.

I think Citizen Siege sounds very cool, not boring, but I still want to see more Oddworld.

And please, I know it can be hard, but please use at least proper spelling. You can get spelling-checkers and these will tell you that "be4" isn't a word, and that "dont" should contain an apostrophe; if you have a good grammar-checker, it should notify you that "their" should be "they're", as well.

It will take some practise but I'm sure you can manage it. It makes it so much easier to read nice grammar and spelling.



Also, the Valet Slig rocks.

I'm so glad that somebody was twattish enough to point that out. I can't fucking stand poor spelling that clearly isn't a result of inexperience, but laziness.
