I'm Alex Russell, and oh my god this is fantastic.

Mr. Russell,

Before we proceed, you must know that I am intensely suspicious of you. Frances disagrees. If you do indeed have information and an opportunity to engage with him, do share, but please understand that if this is a plan to destroy me, you will be the one who is destroyed, as well as any allies you may have.

best,
Armend

Could everyone try and make him think it's me as much as possible? Like, by any means necessary, trickle information down to Goldwasser and Frances too maybe, because I'm sure it'll get to Exsupero through them? However y'all think best really, you're all really good at this. I'm thinking, I could make him agree to meet me if he thinks he can kill me, and then have Andrew get him off guard. Also, it's funny as hell to me that they're engaging players like this.

Yeah, this game is well-done as fuck. I love it.

BTW, before we reach out, what kind of augments have you told them you have? Have you had the usual Zero and nothing else or are you parahuman or what? (Come to think of it, that'd make Expy's sudden hatred of paras make sense!) We all should try and corroborate what you've already said to them as closely as possible.

I'm in! Just give me more info to engage him with Smile

I've said I've had no augmentations done the whole time, so we should probably stick with that. We could say it's because I already have powers? The other scion is meant to be the old CEO's son, right? I'll have to double check, but if that's the case, maybe say I'm lying to try and avoid people getting suspicious of me, like when Frances made a fake account as Daniel to prevent people knowing my real identity? I don't want to try and take over the game for anyone so I don't want to be too specific, it's about fun at the end of the day. We're gonna rock this.

It's odd that Carlos isn't mentioned in any of Frances' dreams? I still think he can manipulate one of the main characters into changing their mind about something big....
If you still want me to narc you out, Alex Russell, let me know...I'm going to see what plays for a bit Smile
And then I looked over the forum and saw this: Is this Carlos?

Frances Tennov posted a new activity comment 4 days, 5 hours ago


My dream ended with people being shot, but then someone appeared and made them all happy again. I'm not sure who.

I have to leave for work soon. If you'll all decide what we're gonna say about Alex, I'll contact Frances tonight.

Wow, looks like a lot happened while I was gone! Shhiiiit a building collapsed and now Expy's pulling the whole 'I think we can agree' bullshit again? What the helll....

Messaged Frances as the panicked friend going 'OMG A BUILDING COLLAPSED WTF ARE YOU OKAY?!' Hopefully she'll give me some info....

Andrew wrote up what happened last night. It's a pretty long read, because a lot just happened. It was huge, I still can't believe it, and I love this story so much.
Huge thanks to everyone (especially the people who helped make Exsupero think I was the scion. He believed it until the end, and we got to catch him off guard because of it.)

Seriously, this wouldn't have been possible without you and your friends.

Man, I was hoping to jump in on this, but it looks like it's already over. Sad Heck of a story, though, and totally worth reading.

It's a shame Frances died. But at least they saved Carlos in the end.

I'm not sure if it is over, because the whole story is changing so much around us. Remember when we all thought it was about Mach Girl? Then it turned into Exsupero attempting world domination - I wouldn't be surprised if there was more to come regarding how Augcorp is going to continue after everything that's happened. God knows at this point.

Ended up joining in for the heck of it, and the Admins sent me a message:

Quote:
Hello. I am one of the administrators. I created this network to deal with the scions, and it seems to have been a success.

You seem to be going a good job talking Andrew down, so I thought I'd ask you: do you think Augcorp would accept someone who exists only in digital form as a CEO? If so, I have the perfect solution to Andrew's dilemma. I exist only in digital form. I'm not Mather, though. Mather tried to continue working when he was transferred to the server, but then he was deleted from them by Marcus Goldwasser. I'm sure it's obvious who I am.

I will be asking other people as well.


I ended up asking what he intended to do with Augcorp and he has this to say:

Quote:
I would return it to its roots. In short, I would want things to be handled as they were when I was, ahem, alive.


I'm assuming it's Anthill, right?

Got the same message and I also think it's Anthill.

I think it is, as well. I have a funny feeling about him wanting to take over the company so soon.
I still think Andrew could benefit having Carlos around to cheer him up.

Apparently not? He just made a post saying it's not him, anyways. Who else is dead that we know that had the tenth level augmentation?

The PM from the admins sounds similar to a conversation I had with Dominic a while ago:
Dominic Francon Sent 23 hours, 43 minutes ago
Here's the thing: as you've probably guessed, this is a sockpuppet account. I have another account here and we've talked on that one. It's kind of obvious who I am, isn't it? Alex figured it out really quickly. I was never employed by Augcorp, but I did get Zero done a few days ago. Anthill was the one who performed it.

I thought Dominic was Frances?
