Re: Real-Life Weirdness
To be filed under "I don't know what happened, but PCs must have been involved somehow", a 200 foot radio mast in Alabama was stolen (or, at least, has disappeared). Despite the fact that the mast was supposed to have been actively broadcasting, no one noticed the loss until over a week later when a crew was sent to do routine brush trimming.
Your gaming angle can be either the heist itself, or the nature of the interrupted transmissions- were people prevented from noticing their cessation by the same force that prevented them from properly noticing their nefarious contents in the first place?
