 **[[wp>Gough Island]]** is a tiny island in the South Atlantic Ocean, halfway between South America and Africa. Its only population is the personnel of a South African weather station.
-This weather station has been contracted to Emtanon since 2018, which used it as a front for **Goughcom**, a communications facility elsewhere on the island.
+This weather station has been contracted to Emtanon since 2018, which uses it as a front to maintain communications equipment on the island, an operation known as **Goughcom**.
-In December 2022, an Emtanon employee suggested hiring "interns" to keep up with the South African requirements. The recruiting was done through Craigslist, advertised as a 6-month assignment starting in May 2023. Among those hired was [[characters#felicity_love|Felicity]], who escaped barely a month later. In September 2023, the remaining interns were drafted into the [[organizations#marine_org|Marine Org]].

-In October 2023, Goughcom was blown up by [[characters#jeff_a|Jeff]]'s electronics planted a few months earlier. This disrupted nearly all activities for the next ten days, as Goughcom was the single point of failure for much of the Emtanon infrastructure. New equipment was placed in a shipping container elsewhere on the island, and the operations resumed.
+In October 2023, Goughcom was blown up by [[characters:jeff_a|Jeff]]'s electronics planted a few months earlier. However, the disruption caused by this lasted only about ten days, as new equipment was quickly installed in a shipping container.
+In February 2024, construction began on a new facility called "Gough North", which is a mystery as of yet.
 ===== Leskov Island =====
-**[[wp>Leskov Island]]** is a subantarctic desert island. In late 2022, Emtanon started a project to construct a shortwave radio station there, which will be used to control backdoored home appliances.
+**[[wp>Leskov Island]]** is a subantarctic desert island. In [[:xorfs:18000-18049#section18043|October 2022]], Emtanon started a project to construct a shortwave radio station there, which will be used to trigger power blackouts on demand using a backdoor in home appliances.
+The bulk of construction work was done in June 2023. However, the commissioning has been repeatedly delayed due to mysterious hardware failures, leading to opinions that the site is "cursed". In April 2024, unknown parties broke into the location and caused mayhem.
+It is said that Leskov's inaugural broadcast will include the song //[[We Promise You]]// and a speech by [[characters#Dr. J Marvin Blackweather]].
