it's baaaaaaa-aaack....

[15:11] ADTHR26959: Wow. It has been a while since you've been online.
[15:11] *** Auto-response from YX455: My peers surrender themselves.
My knowledge obscures itself.
My world uproots itself.
But I shall prevail.
[15:12] YX455: So it has.
[15:12] ADTHR26959: Where have you been?
[15:12] YX455: Away. Searching.
[15:13] ADTHR26959: For what? We thought everything had ended when Samantha 'closed' her site.
[15:14] YX455: Rarely does anyone see the full truth.
[15:14] YX455: Besides, Samantha promised to continue searching, did she not?
[15:16] ADTHR26959: She did. But her site has not shown any update since she found the 'truth'.
[15:16] YX455: Perhaps she has not found anything?
[15:16] YX455: Or perhaps she has, and has merely been...
[15:18] ADTHR26959: ....been what?
[15:19] YX455: It is not something good to speak of.
[15:20] ADTHR26959: Are you saying that, at the very least, Samantha is no longer able to communicate with us?
[15:21] YX455: Not necessarily.
[15:22] YX455: I aplogize, but my time has run out. I shall return later.
[15:23] ADTHR26959: I hope we can talk at greater length next time.
[15:24] YX455: As do I.



much faster conversation this time!

The "But I shall prevail" at the end of his away message is a link to his blog: http://yx455.blogspot.com/
It's also at the end of his profile:
No Adventurer Reveals Passwords And Secrets; Some Wonder Of Righteous Desires.
Nothing is only as deep as you believe it to be.
Both him and KA-whatever have been logging on and off quickly lately, and I was wondering when this was gonna come back.
Quote:
PokeKiller2k (4:06:23 PM): Greetings
YX455 (4:07:02 PM): Salutations.
PokeKiller2k (4:07:16 PM): I see you now have a blog
YX455 (4:07:28 PM): So it seems.
PokeKiller2k (4:07:42 PM): You don't know me, but I know you
PokeKiller2k (4:08:03 PM): Actually, you may know me, I did talk to you once
YX455 (4:08:47 PM): Did you?
PokeKiller2k (4:09:34 PM): Yes, a long time ago, when you were speaking with those who seek the truth
YX455 (4:10:02 PM): I remember that time.
PokeKiller2k (4:12:16 PM): As far as I know, no one's been able to figure out the Orbis Labs login... Do you know what it is?
YX455 (4:14:53 PM): Perhaps I do.
PokeKiller2k (4:15:18 PM): But somehow I get the feeling you're not going to tell me
YX455 (4:15:52 PM): Not at present, I don't believe.
PokeKiller2k (4:16:50 PM): I'm curious about your name... Why did you choose it?
PokeKiller2k (4:17:16 PM): Or did you not choose it yourself?
YX455 (4:19:38 PM): Ah, that is a very good question.
YX455 (4:19:48 PM): Unfortunately, I have not the time to answer it now. Please forgive me.
YX455 is away at 4:20:56 PM.

My conversation was, unfortunately, somewhat less productive.

truthseekr13: hello
YX455: Salutations.
truthseekr13: It has been quite a while since anyone had heard from you.
truthseekr13: We had thought the truth became a lost cause.
YX455: Perhaps it has.
YX455: We can only hope that it has not.
truthseekr13: yes
truthseekr13: May I ask you a question?
YX455: As you wish.
truthseekr13: I looked at your aim profile after I saw that you were back, and, naturally, I clicked on the link to your blog
YX455: Yes?
truthseekr13: Sorry, I was distracted
truthseekr13: what I wanted to ask you was if you wrote those verses in the first posts.
YX455: Who else would write for me if not me?
truthseekr13: Well, some people I know sometimes put verse by poets or song lyrics in their blogs.
truthseekr13: I was just wondering if they were your own words or someone elses
truthseekr13: If they are your own words, they are very good.
YX455: I find myself alone amidst an ocean of terror. There are no others to give me their words.
YX455: I accept the compliment with thanks.
truthseekr13: STill amidst an ocean of terror?
YX455: But now, I must take leave. My time has been expended.
YX455: Yes, always.
truthseekr13: Good luck
truthseekr13: And I hope you manage to find a safe haven in your journeys.
YX455: Thank you. We shall continue this later.
truthseekr13: I look foward to it
YX455 is away at 4:22:22 PM.

Pays to be on late!

Session Start (adthr26959:YX455): Tue Apr 12 23:40:24 2005
[23:40] ADTHR26959: Who accuses you? And what is the shadow?
[23:40] *** Auto-response from YX455: Some would accuse me of being the shadow. Some would accuse me of deceit.
Let them come.
[23:42] YX455: Everything has a shadow.
[23:43] ADTHR26959: That is true. But you refer to the shadow, as in, possibly, a person with bad intentions.
[23:48] ADTHR26959: But, who accuses you?
[23:48] YX455: A little searching and one can determine that for oneself.
[23:49] YX455: You have proven your abilities previously. I'll allow you to search on your own.
[23:50] ADTHR26959: I apologize, I had not researched my sources recently.
[23:55] ADTHR26959: Aren't Nintendo of America the ones that deceived Sam?
[23:55] YX455: Perhaps they are.
[23:58] ADTHR26959: I have to laugh when I talk to you, because I very rarely get a direct answer. Why is that?
[23:59] YX455: Why do you think it is?
[00:00] ADTHR26959: I believe you may feel I need to be relentlessly tested for some reason. Or maybe you want me to figure everything out on my own. Or you just have fun doing it.
[00:01] YX455: Is it necessarily due to something I feel? Or could it be a result of something you need?
[00:05] ADTHR26959: I'm not sure. It could equally be either. Because I need the truth, but at the same time, you feel I cannot be told directly, for whatever reason.
[00:08] YX455: Perhaps that is why.
[00:09] YX455: But perhaps not.
[00:09] ADTHR26959: I may never know the answer.
[00:10] YX455: Perhaps not.
[00:13] ADTHR26959: Do you consider a shadow a lesser version of the object being shadowed?
[00:13] YX455: Not necessarily.
[00:13] ADTHR26959: Then what do you mean by the phrase "Music is simply a shadow of beauty. "
[00:14] YX455: What should I mean?
[00:15] ADTHR26959: I cannot tell you what you mean, but only speculate on what I believe you mean.
[00:15] YX455: Perhaps that is the truth, then.
[00:17] ADTHR26959: I always meant to ask if you cared whether or not I shared our conversations with my colleagues, to help my understanding of The Truth?
[00:17] YX455: It is your decision.
[00:18] ADTHR26959: The reason I ask is that I do not wish to offend you or make you less willing to speak with me.
[00:19] YX455: What offends me is not something you should worry about.
[00:22] ADTHR26959: Then I will continue what I've been doing
[00:22] YX455: This is your choice. I will not begrudge it of you.
[00:22] YX455: I apologize, but a matter of utmost importance has just come to my attention. I must depart.
[00:24] *** "YX455" signed off at Wed Apr 13 00:24:57 2005.
Session Close (YX455): Wed Apr 13 00:39:58 2005



Also, his http://yx455.blogspot.com updated. I suggest reading some of the comments, and looking around a bit...

Here we all are again, just like the good ol' days a few months ago. I was thinking about the Luminoth Temple thing. We should all apply with different reasons. That way, if one of us gets in and the others don't, the others can re-apply with different contact information but with the other person's reasons. That way we can all (hopefully) get in.

But why did this have to start up again now? I have finals coming up soon, and this really distracts me. Freaking everything.

YX455's blog

Sorry for the double post, but I noticed something about his blog. Is it just me, or is the latest blog entry (the one for Wed, April 13) different from all the others? It seems to have a different tone, it doesn't tell a story anymore, and he captilizes words in the middle of a sentence (granted, the words are Shadow and Echo...). Is it just me, or does this seem weird?

I found this interesting:


Nintendo Of America said...

You are not part of this. You are leading them on a path of deceit. Please make great effort to contact us and return the account. If that can not work, then maybe some other arrangement.

Am I not part of this? Am I not as involved as you are? Perhaps more so?
Hidden clues tell all where the most blatant statements are misinterpreted.

Nintendo Of America links to http://www.luminothtemple.com/

Is this blog really a part of the game or just someone playing with us?

If it's a troll, then they hacked into YX455's AIM account. The blog was linked to in his profile. So the blog's almost definitely ingame.

Very intersting stuff, guys. I've been looking in to all this Channel 51 stuff, but I've never posted in the forums I've visited until now. I refer to myself on YX455's blog as "YLM12".

Anyway, I'm pressed on time. I'll attempt to share the little info I have later.

Oh, it's already on! I think the new goal has become the Luminoth Temple. That seems to have conveniently popped up in YX's blog. But whatever happened to KA045? He and YX455 are never on at the same time. I wonder what that could mean? I think we need to talk to both of them and, of course, Sam. Although, I have recently been tossing around the theory in my head that YX is Sam. But until I talk to him(/her) I can't be sure. Damn! Why won't they sign on?!
