You do all realize that the escapees are now looking for a host......



They have become viral. I'm not so sure this is a good thing. Kinda like the Matrix: Although Neo is a nice guy within the matrix he's a ruthless terrorist.

We don't know how this will turn out.

We don't know if what Jordan told us is true.

When Munchen first escaped he didn't need a host. Instead he had a 'part' body because he tried escaping when his body was being 'reverted'. I don't know if Jordan would lie about it, but he's lied about practically everything else, which just makes him seem evil.

As long as we don't end up with zombies.

[meta] The Zombie idea is my own... and no amount of artistic use claims will be accepted. That means YOU jordan. Mwahahahaha. Evil or Very Mad [/meta]

They did not escape. I am on with Munchen right now. I will post the conversation on the other page.

EDIT: The conversation got hairy. Jordan is trying to dig for information on Caspian.

Not to brag, but this may be my best work as a Double Agent yet. Cool

If you haven't already, see Kris' post here.

Here's my email to Jordan:

Quote:
Jordan,

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, *FRIEND*?! I have just read a transmission log between you and Kris, one of the "Matzai Freedom Fighters" - the group that are trying to overthrow your control of the servers and free the Matzai. Why, why, why would you ask him whether I've been disloyal to you? Especially after practically anouncing that Oliver Muncen was no longer in control of the transmitter? I can understand wanting to test me, but why could you not at least convincingly pose as Oliver Munchen before doing so? If you had, you would have realized that Kris - like the rest of the MFF - do NOT know what the servers are or their purpose.

The MFF DO know you are in control of the servers because you practically announced that to them weeks ago, shortly after we discovered your Server 5 Manifest. *They* deduced that you run the servers, *I* did not tell them. *They* doubt that Jordan is your real name, because frankly it is obviousl that you have been lying to them all along. I have taken great pains to establish their trust so that I can manipulate them into unwittingly assisting you. And now you may have destroyed everything!

The MFF are in disarray. They now suspect me, with good reason, of being your "Trusted One". I needed to act quickly to quell suspicions so I said that you were merely throwing out a name to try to cause suspicion in our group and throw us off the track of the REAL spy. I may have to employ some McArthurian tactics to recover from this. I may need to make a baseless claim that someone else is the real spy and that your words were trying to make them suspect me instead of him. I may even need to make Dragkhar this black sheep instead of recruiting him as we had planned. As it is now, no one will listen to me if I try to recruit anyone.

I do not know why your trust in me has waned, but I hope that Kris' answers satisfied your doubts in me. It was obvious from the transmission log that he had no idea what you were talking about. If you need to test my loyalty again, please do so in a manner that will not cause further distrust of me. That is, if you wish me to remain your spy. I did not wish to make this point, but I now find it necessary to remind you that I know much about your operation that you do not wish to become public information. I wish to remain your loyal friend and servant, but if you continue to jeopardize the trust I have built in my efforts to assist you, I do not think that will be possible.

Assuming we are continuing our partnership: It would seem from Kris' transmission log that you have captured Oliver Munchen? Or did he escape you again? If you have indeed captured him, what is your next course of action? If not, I am working on a plan to trap him. That is, if I can regain the trust of the MFF.

I await your response and instructions and remain your loyal friend and servant,
Caspian


Let's see him deal with that. Like I said in the other thread, if I've been made, I've been made. My double agent role has served its purpose. If he no longer trusts me... oh well. Jordan can recruit someother half-wit.

EDIT1: By half-wit, I mean someone willing to ACT like a half-wit, no disrespect to my fellow Matzai Freedom Fighters

EDIT2: I just made up Matzai Freedom Fighters on the spot. Sorry Pup, it was just more self explanatory than that Q word you used. Surprised) That can still be our name if we want.

Nice artwork Puppy. There is only one thing, I wonder about: If we take the name Matzai Freedom Fighters, there is an F missing in the logo, isn't it? (MMF <-> MFF)

LOVE the new logo, Pup!!! But yeah, just change the initials Very Happy

I didn't mean to throw out your Q-word!! I jsut had to get the email out quickly for damage control, I couldn't remember what it was and what it meant, and I didn't want to have to explain it to Jordan and using "my friends" to mean you guys and "my friend" to mean him was getting all very confusing and... *breathes*

Hope you understand Cool

Love the logo though!

Actually, you could leave it as MMF for Menace-Media Fighters, although that sounds like we work for menace-media instead of oppose it... Menace Media Foes?

We can keep Matzai Freedom Fighters if we've actually decided that's what our purpose is. Have we given up on the "psych ward" theory that none of this is real? If it turns out they actually are split personalities that we have to wipe, we won't be very good freedom fighters...

Technically, I don't think it really matters what we call ourselves. But we can refer to ourselves as Matzai Freedom Fighters if that's what we've decided our purpose in this plot is. Otherwise, MFF can just be the name I use when I talk about us to Jordan...if I'll be talking to Jordan anymore, that is.

And one more try to salvage the Caspian deal. If Jordan still wants information I think I can expect him to come back defensively and try to cover his tracks on using Caspian's name.....

Email to Jordan, Subject, Betrayal:
Quote:

HOW DARE YOU?
I came to you offering my assistance in finding Munchen. You have been asking if you could trust me. You have been making me jump through hoops to gain your trust and you BETRAYED me. I thought we had a common goal, I was willing to help you. I know now you are not to be trusted.
I also know now that Caspian is not to be trusted. Thank you for telling me he was working for you. He will no longer get information from us. I will make sure of that. We trusted him, we saw him as a leader and a friend. I suppose that is what you told him to do in order for him to get closer to us. I only hope we did not give him any information that was useful to you in destroying Munchen. I feel like such a fool.


So we will see.

A reply from Jordan. Huh?? And the plot thickens............

Quote:

The other night we had a slight incident.
Munchen escaped into the real world.He took the form of Anne.You see
Anne is my
wife.I have inserted her mind into the servers through a machine I
made.She is
a helper in there.She does what I say because she is now a sort of
"program".
Anyway, he took her body.Just when I found him he had messed with the
menace
site.I am having to put it up for maintanance.It was then that the
strangest
thing happened.Munchen was bumped back to the servers.Kim had taken the
body.I
then made Kim suffer both takings thinking that it was Munchen.
He is still in the servers.


I don't even know how to reply... where do I start?? Oh man.

Oy. Just oy. I don't even know how to deal with this. Jordan is being an idiot. Now Anne is his wife?!? I thought she was an Irish Axe murderer! Ugh.

Here's the thing. No one is supposed to know about what the servers actually are or do. Supposedly, I am the only one that would even make sense to, right? So either Jordan slipped up and sent that to you by mistake, or he knows I told you guys everything and assumes you know what he's talking about. But even if that is true, what is the point of telling you that???

The way I see it, we have two paths we could go down.

A) We try to maintain my cover. You respond by saying something like "What the hell are you talking about? How can one person's mind take over somebody else's body? Just what are these servers anyway?" I then back that up by sending him an email saying that the MFF are counfused by that email.

B) We accept the fact my cover is blown. We stop the ruse. We are open about the fact that we know exactly what the servers are for. We ask him what he wants and why he is telling us about the incident from the other night.

I'm personally all for B, except that leaves us with no one on the inside. So we would never know if Jordan was lying to us. I don't know at this point. I'm going to wait and see if I get response to my "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" email. Perhaps that will confirm one of the two paths. For now, I recommend everyone just sit tight and figure out how this thing is going down. But, if you prefer to fire off an email instead, that's everyone's own prerogative.

I think for right now I will hold off and wait for a possible response to your email.
Funny thing is I think you are right.

I think he slipped up, his response had nothing to do with my email to him whatsoever. I had expected him to get defensive....
