Ok slight change of plans. Instead of writing down notes we are going to use PCSX2 to take snapshots in game. We'll loosely follow the debug events listed below, but it isn't critical that we follow it to a "T".
The goal is to take a snapshot of each textbox used. Some overlap may occur which is fine, but if you remember seeing a textbox from before feel free to not take a picture.
If you have a PS2 -> PC adapter then taking snapshots is really easy. Once you configure the joystick download the program JoyToKey.

Set button 11 to be keyboard F8. Now you can push down the right analog button (r3) and a snapshot will be saved.
I will also give out a patched "ZeroGS KOSMOS 0.97.dll" that does not leave watermarks on the snapshots.
Here is an example archive of snapshots.

Make sure you turn on floor number display
Press select, left, pick game status, change floor num to On
Use pcsx2svn343.exe
Old FAQ
============================================================================
Here is a quick example of what context finding beta testers need to do.<br>
1. Enter an assigned "Event Flag"
2. Note the current town.
3. If you have party members try talking to each one immediately (without talking to anyone else in town)
4. Write down the textbox number
5. On the next line put "Default party chat - Character name"
6. Talk to each character in the town/cave/etc.
7. For each character
a. Write down the textbox number.
b. Talk to each party member. If they say anything place "-> party chat textbox" after the associated textbox.
Example:
Sarabona - After Wedding (B)
MKOUT = Outside
202F
Default Party Chat -> Bianca
MHYF2 = Bar
0C33 -> 2035
Bunny Girl sitting -> Bianca
0C31 0C32 -> 2034
Drunk man sitting (wearing red) -> Bianca
0C34 -> 2036
Bartender -> Bianca
end example
