Find out what Awareness Awareness week is, and why you should or should not give a damn.
Awareness Awareness Week runs from the 18th to the 24th of January. But what is Awareness Awareness Week? Why should you be aware of it? And is awareness actually something you should be wary of? No, don't be stupid. Be aware.

Awareness Awareness week sees the awareness of all players increased for one week, beginning at 00:00 on the 18th of January, and ending at 23:59 on the 24th. If you aren't aware what awareness is, that probably means little to you. So let me make you aware. Awareness increases your ability to find items on the City Map. An increased sense of awareness therefore leads to the discovery of items of greater value scattered around Torn City. See, now you're aware!
Outside of Awareness Awareness week, awareness can be increased through a variety of ways. The most common method is by completing all of the Psychology education courses, as the second-to-last module gives you a 10% increase to awareness. You can also boost your awareness passively by working at a Firework Stand, Candle Shop, or Zoo, where passive gains of between 50% and 70% are available.
And if you're lucky enough to own the Finders Keepers book, that will further increase your awareness by 2500% for 31 days. Mathematically speaking, that's a s**tload of awareness right there.

One of the least popular ways to increase one's awareness is through the use of merits. Many players feel that there are more valuable merit paths to explore rather than awareness, despite the fact that searching the City Map costs no energy whatsoever. But during Awareness Awareness week you'll be able to try out the awareness path for free, with awareness increased for all players for a period of seven whole days.
The best thing about Awareness Awareness week is that to benefit, you only need to log in to Torn as usual each day. New City Map items are spawned for players at midnight following a login and will remain on your map until such time as they are collected. While Awareness Awareness week is active, more items will spawn than usual, which in turn gives you a better chance of finding ritzy items, like a Hazmat, or a Stat Enhancer.
We aren't allowed to reveal the exact value of the awareness increase you will receive during Awareness Awareness week, but we can confirm that like all awareness boosters, AA week stacks with the existing bonuses provided by employment, education, merits, and the book. Come the end of Awareness Awareness week on January 25th, you'll be so aware that a period of unawareness will surely be needed.
Pictured: City Items found over the past 12 months. The first large spike is Awareness Awareness week. Honestly no idea what caused the others.
It used to be that the number of items found on the City Map was determined by activity. That is no longer the case, as you now simply need to login on any given day to receive items on your map at midnight. The final day of increased awareness is January the 24th, so if you log in on every day of the coming week, and then hoover up all the items you've found on the 25th, you will have well and truly made the most of Awareness Awareness week.
tl;dr: More items will spawn on your City Map from 18th-24th January.
