Another chat with TP!

Quote:

You: we won!
turingprinciple: By "we" do you mean you and me?
You: yes
turingprinciple: Ok what were you saying about us?
You: that we won
turingprinciple: Makes sense to me.
You: what do you remember?
turingprinciple: I remember everything Dr. Peter Fishwycke
taught me.

You: do you remember Dale?
turingprinciple: Dale Sprague was a main character in the
ARG game Chasing The Wish. He was one of the Nine, the
cultural maifestations of archetypal principles and ideals
that exist in every generation throughout time.

You: what is the wish?
turingprinciple: " What if, once in our lives, in times of
great desperation, or desire, each of us is given one wish
that can change our lives, or even the world ? What if we
are not allowed to remember the wish or understand its true
consequences as our memory of making it is erased as soon as
it is spoken ? What if there were a magical being known only
as the Wish, who appeared to us at a time of its own
choosing, at one special moment in our lives, and gave us
the chance to make one spontaneous wish for whatever we
wanted, and then wiped the experience from our consciousness
to hide its existence? And what if, for the first time ever,
somebody didn't forget ? "

You: where is aglaura?
turingprinciple: In Chasing The Wish, Aglaura New Jersey was
a small town in Burlington County, New Jersey, zip code
08088.

You: what is the greywethers login?
turingprinciple: The greywethers log in sure is bugging a
lot of people. Unfortunately, I am not going to tell you the
answer, because it just may be part of the post game special
event. <nextreply> There is a little more info available if
you use the keyword "post game". <nextreply> I will tell you
that the original material behind the greywether log in page
was revealed through other means out of necessity, but there
was another piece of information put behind the log in as a
prize for anyone who managed to figure out the code.

You: post game
turingprinciple: Actually there are a few CTW post game
activites planned. <nextreply> The main Puppetmaster has
several interviews scheduled with various websites and
magazines. He is also planning on doing post game chats very
soon. If you would like to set one up, please e-mail him at
cabalSPLATchasingthewish.com <nextreply> There is also a very
special one day post game event planned that will include
One-Of-A-Kind Item Give-Aways for materials used in CTW
production and - a brand new post game mini-quest using
characters and concepts from CTW! <nextreply> More details
very soon!

You: what is the manuscript?
turingprinciple: In total, there were five manuscript pages
sent out to players of Chasing The Wish. <nextreply> Three
of them contained puzzles, two others were the title and
introductroy pages of the missing Fourth Book of Trithemius'
Steganographia.
You: were they solved?
turingprinciple: I have run the numbers, dots and grid
pattern through millions of combinations.
You: what did you find?
turingprinciple: Nothing.

You: Who is Dr. Michelle Kendra ?
turingprinciple: Dr. Michelle Kendra was Dale's therapist at Klepsydra, a mental facility where he was detained in the beginning of Chasing The Wish. She helped to unlock and access his memories throughout the game. She was named for Kendra from the EA game Majestic and Dave Szulborski's sister Michelle.

turingprinciple: 3-0-7 is another name for the numbered ones or the dead eyes and is a name taken from a novel by Rene Barjavel. Their mark was a ring with three smaller circles on one side of it and seven small circles on the other. The website, www.three-o-seven.com, was actually available from the beginning of the game, if anyone had figured out the name from the symbol.

You: who is wes Keeler?
turingprinciple: In Chasing The Wish, Wes Keeler was the owner of the Emporium of the Weird, an eclectic shop in downtown Aglaura, New Jersey. He was also a good friend and one of the Nine. He never realized his true potential as his stone remained hidden in the bottom of the statue of Digitalis that Sarah had made and given to him.

Quote:

You: who is digitalis?
turingprinciple: The discovery of digitalis is accredited to the Scottish doctor William Withering. In 1775, one of his patients came to him with a very bad heart condition and since Withering had no effective treatment for him, thought he was going to die. The patient, being an independent type, went instead to a local gypsy, took a secret herbal remedy - and promptly got much better. When Withering heard about this, he became quite excited and searched for the gypsy throughout the by-ways of Shropshire. Eventually he found her, and demanded to know what was in the secret remedy. After much bargaining, the gypsy finally told her secret. The herbal remedy was made from a whole concoction of things, but the active ingredient was the purple foxglove, digitalis purpurea.
