mos_eisley_bartendar: Hey, Reggie. How's things? Are you on your medication right now?
*** "xover222" signed on at Mon Sep 15 19:21:05 2003.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Hey Reggie!
mos_eisley_bartendar: Can I talk to Red Knight?
xover222: red knight is not wanting to talk. you still have a cypher to solve.
mos_eisley_bartendar: We solved his first one. Why does he want us to solve both?
mos_eisley_bartendar: Why doesn't he just give us the information?
xover222: you have proved yourself worthy when you solve the second.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Very well, but can he tell me where he is leading us?
xover222: to the answers he can give
mos_eisley_bartendar: And you mean to say that he will talk to me if the second puzzle is solved?
xover222: i mean to say he will do as he pleases.
xover222: he is the Red Knight.
xover222: he found me. he can find you
mos_eisley_bartendar: How do I know he isn't leading us into something dangerous or less than ethical?
xover222: do not follow the Red Knight if your resolve is less than adequate.
mos_eisley_bartendar: I am just being cautious. What can you tell me about the second cypher?
xover222: i do no know the solve. i have not tried.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Why is Red Knight interested in you?
xover222: he knows my secret.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Your secret?
xover222: he knows what i did. he knows who i am. he found what i left behind. i think becuase of the smart people.
xover222: he used it too.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Reggie, when did you start taking your medication?
mos_eisley_bartendar: How long ago?
xover222: i have taken medication for a few years. how long have you taken yours?
mos_eisley_bartendar: How long have you been hearing voices and beeping?
xover222: are you trying to be god? I have one of those already.
mos_eisley_bartendar: I am just following a line of thought.
mos_eisley_bartendar: If you don't like these questions, that's fine.
xover222: i do not like these questions.
mos_eisley_bartendar: I apoligize.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Why do you call him "God?"
xover222: he runs my universe now. when i eat, when i sleep, when i get to do what i wish.
mos_eisley_bartendar: We were talking the other day about speaking without him being able to read it.
mos_eisley_bartendar: I suggested encryption, and I do not recall your objection to it.
mos_eisley_bartendar: What was it?
xover222: i type. it talks.
mos_eisley_bartendar: What talks?

xover222: the computer
*** "xover222" signed on at Mon Sep 15 20:00:10 2003.
mos_eisley_bartendar: But why won't encryption work?
mos_eisley_bartendar: I don't understand.
xover222: who cares who locks the doors when you can see the keys made.
mos_eisley_bartendar: What if we used an encryption you use on a piece of paper?
mos_eisley_bartendar: Then you could encrypt, and it wouldn't talk.
xover222: then what?
mos_eisley_bartendar: Then you could speak without fear of making God unhappy.
xover222: i write down my message on paper and then you get it magically.
mos_eisley_bartendar: no
xover222: you are making fun of me again.
mos_eisley_bartendar: That's not what I am saying.
mos_eisley_bartendar: I am suggesting you write it down, and we use an encryption you could convert just with paper and pencil.
mos_eisley_bartendar: then you can tell me, and they won't be able to understand what you are saying
xover222: you send me encryption?
mos_eisley_bartendar: We agree, first, on what kind of encryption to use. Something you can convert back and forth on paper.
xover222: how do i receive it?
mos_eisley_bartendar: How do you receive what?
xover222: the message from you
mos_eisley_bartendar: Does it speak when I talk to you?
xover222: it listens
xover222: it never talks to me
xover222: it talks to god
mos_eisley_bartendar: I will give you a number the next time we talk.
mos_eisley_bartendar: and you shift what i say by the number I give you.
mos_eisley_bartendar: If I say "1," and type "A," the decoded message is "B"
mos_eisley_bartendar: you encrypt your lines, each one individually, with a separate number for each one.
mos_eisley_bartendar: and you don't tell me what it is.
xover222: YOU DON'T GET IT. IT IS LISTENING NOW.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Then, apparantly, we need a new scheme.
mos_eisley_bartendar: What I want you to do, then, is tell me everything you know. And come up with some way to encrypt it. Any way. I don't care what it is. Figure it out, and then give me the encryption.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Don't do it now.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Do it next time we meet.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Anything you want to tell me, tell me.
xover222: you are not the Red Knight. you do not tell me what to do.
mos_eisley_bartendar: I am not telling you what to do.
mos_eisley_bartendar: It is simply what I would like you to do.
*** "xover222" signed off at Mon Sep 15 20:20:32 2003.
mos_eisley_bartendar: You are in control of the situation.
*** "xover222" signed on at Mon Sep 15 20:20:43 2003.
mos_eisley_bartendar: You do as you wish.
mos_eisley_bartendar: But if you are interested, if you want to share information and help us understand what is happening, then I think you ought to do it.
xover222: it is good you think.
xover222: it will keep you awake.
xover222: maybe even alive if you do not do it too much.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Maybe. Will you do it?
xover222: i will ask Red Knight.
mos_eisley_bartendar: What did I ask you to do?
xover222: tell you everything. why do you ask me things you know?
xover222: are you on meds too?
mos_eisley_bartendar: I apoligize, but I was following another train of thought.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Yes, ask Red Knight.
xover222: no trains in catalina
mos_eisley_bartendar: But there are. They only exist in people's heads, though.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Their thoughts imagine trains.
mos_eisley_bartendar: Is that any less real?
mos_eisley_bartendar: What's the difference between what I am reading and what I imagine I read in five minutes?
xover222: i do not know.
xover222: you confuse me
mos_eisley_bartendar: No, Reggie, you confuse me more than I could ever possibly confuse you.
mos_eisley_bartendar: When you learn to accept that, you will be free.
xover222: i accept everything at face value
xover222: i have to finish a game.
xover222: i will talk to you later.

My conversation with Reggie this evening, after we solved the journey puzzle.

[addlepated]

Here are the parts of interest from my convo:

[dashcat]

My chat with Reggie 9/16/03

[jamesi]

Ol' reg and I had a heated battle in the chess arena late last night after The Journey was solved. I thought I had my messaging logs turned on, but unfortunately not.

Our chat wasn;t too meaningful. At some point in the game, I wqas dominating, so I decided to use the game as a means to talk about knights and queens. I made some sort of reference about how the black knight was stronger than the white knight, which didn't go anywhere. Then I lost the game. Stupid me.

I did manahe to get Reggie to talk about The Journey a little bit. I asked him if he trusted me, and Reggie said (in essense) that if the Red Knight trusteed me, then he would too. Then he asked if I trusted the Red Knight. Not wanting to commit to any position too early in this game, I shot out some comment about trusting the Red Knight when the next Journey is available. I forget exactly what I said, but he seemed okay with it.

Again, sorry I didn't log the convo. I will in the future.

[Ehsan]

Actually it seems that the chat summary is much more useful than the entire text which doesn't get us anywhere.. I think it would be better if people just summarized like konamouse and addlepated did., but attach the entire log as a txt in case someone else wants to read between the lines.. what do you think?
