 		I'm not sure
Something interesting has popped up over at www.triskabiblios.com/orkid
Not sure whether we're supposed to find it or not, someone in one of the almost 300 posts over at lazylaces found it.

 		Here's hoping that I didn't miss this when I searched (I can't keep up with everything. There are even 200+ comments at the lazylaces site)

Anyway, I noticed that the Dixon scribe page had a broken link in it, so I took a closer look at the source page. So it is trout - but only the link was provided before, I'll keep this here.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It has a meta tag with a huge binary string (broken up to prevent scroll):

01101000011101000111010001110000001110100010111100101111011101110111011101110
11100101110011101000111001001101001011100110110101101100001011000100110100101
10001001101100011010010110111101110011001011100110001101101111011011010010111
10110001101101000011000010111010001110011011000110111001001101001011100000111
01000101111100110001001100110111001101100101011100000111010000101110011101000
111100001110100

It translates to: http://www.triskabiblios.com/chatscript_13sept.txt

That page has a transcript between Islington and a Toby.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
toby - this is getting out of hand
islington - I'm sorry. But it's working
toby - what about my privacy! You've hacked into my server
islington - not hacked. you let me in
toby - not yet I didnt
islington - so you're not bound by contracts that you are about to make?
toby - I don't think that's got a precedent in law...
islington - you'd be suprised...
toby - so what is this? what's the point?
islington - we are creating a vortex
toby - right
islington - all of these interactions, from past, present and future, have repurcussions that are felt in other parts of time. Time isn't linear, it's a mobius strip - infinity
toby - you said.
islington - did I? will I?
toby - anyway, yeah -
islington - when the interactions, whether they be electrons leaping from a stray atom, to worldwide social interactions between people across Time - when they reach critical mass, everything will come together.
toby - so... we have to do this?
islington - theres no compunction. You don't have to do anything... There is only One Time. It's infinite. So whatever you choose to do, that's what Is.
toby - uh.... wow
toby- thats kind of deep
islington - sorry, I feel myself blinking
islington - don't forget to email the BBC to thank them for the documentary - it was very complimentary
toby - BBC?
*islington has signed away

 		As for Orkid and SixSidedSquare being scribes, they don't seem to have been assigned a page.
the orkid page not under scribes is likely a goof.
Couldn't find any others on Lazylaces.

I did finish that Treasure Hunt Puzzle and sent the email with the answer to elmo. No idea if it's a red herring, but it was fun and, if nothing else, I'm signed up for Toby's next one when it comes.

Do I detect a little PM monitoring going on, here? (The post from Shylilembrace)

The one of the two pics on xOrkid's site is the background for graeme's "tip" page. By the way, when you click on the graphics on graeme's page it no longer takes you to the "Who is Spartacus" question. You only get the monkey face.

 		Are you Sparticus?
I still get the Sparticus page.....after the monkey's head flashes.

I tried twice and got it both times.

Just you?

 		So, does the "Mission Accomplished" message I just received signal the end of this game?

 		If it does mean the end of the 'game'....then I finished hours ago!!

So, no....I do not think that is what it symbolizes.

 		Thanks, Mountain Girl.
I've been pondering it and the possible clue that may lie therein.
All I can surmise is that maybe we're not in full-blown "game" mode, yet or that maybe I'm pushing too hard in the cooperative gaming arena.

Then again, maybe he has met me in the future and is sending this as a warning to always remember to think outside the box. Dunno
