Help me! I'm desperate!

We have a winner!

And here's some links to the stories connected to this game:
The Life and Death of My Pets
Excerpt

Now that it's beginning to pull together, we've gotten into some of the specifics. Thus, I will not accept too general a guess (already happened; hint-hint). So, if you put all of the answers together, what do you get? The following paragraph has remained untouched, just to explain why I put this statement here.

Refer to Games Help for rules. There is one slight difference. If a question that is not formatted as a guess, but simply a general question, turns out to be correctly guessed it will count as winner. The reason: it is specific, but nobody would truly know about it, so the guess can be general (hint). As before, YOU ONLY GET 20 QUESTIONS, INCLUDING GUESSES. After the first 20, guesses only.

Another reminder about the game, as seen in a previous version:
Maybe: Sometimes, there is an in-between answer. This response means either that it is in between or it is invalid to the object, and therefore unanswerable. This response does not necessarily make sense to the object in question.

To ask a question, click here. Otherwise, be sure to place in the subject "20 Questions 061705 YOUR NAME GOES HERE!!!" COPY AND PASTE THE SUBJECT! Don't send me a message subject '20 Questions', telling me that there was a huge 6-digit number that you couldn't memorize (it's a date, not a random number, just so you know). It's a simple procedure, and most computers, as far as I know, have the capacity to do copy-and-pasting.

The subject is The Future: Imagine
Hint: try PicoSearch

The basic answer was, in fact, the introduction of this new story!

It looks like ya'll need another hint. So, what kinds of questions are being asked? So far, it's always on one side of the two extremes: either the question is asking about a general topic, or it's basically a guess. 20 Questions are for narrowing down! So, for example, instead of asking "Is it the time you got Twister?", ask "Does it involve the time you got Twister?" (No offense to Elaine)
    There are hundreds of hints lying around. If you try hard enough, you will figure it out.
