I thought the '3p_agent' and '3p_not_agent' were in the list of identities in the room... he was pretty close to the top because it was in alphabetical order. Have no proof and wouldn't swear to it though!

Perhaps someone still has screenshots of the end of the game?? I checked makomk's flickr shots (see the Revenge thread) but the userlist was scrolled to the bottom, thus obscuring the users.

Given that the 3P are a lot more likely to give us a link to an audio file of Anna being horribly tortured in a sewer, rather than make slightly smug comments, I suspect this may have been event induced over-excitement.

They were on the list. I wasn't paying attention to the official chat, but someone in #syzygy made a comment about 3p_not_agent which caused me to quickly flip over to the official chat... and yes, scan the list of participants to see if there actually was someone there with that name.

I'm very unnerved by the idea of in-game stuff happening in chatrooms. It's one thing to watch a "voice-to-text" interface like Kurt has previously set up, because at least we know for sure that it's in-game. But this... how do we know for sure that this is in-game? I don't think we can. And it just blurs the line too much. I'm very much hoping that this was just someone fooling around.

Grrrr.

The screenshots I've got are all stored on my PC, which decided to die, so I can't have a look at them. If only I'd uploaded them somewhere, or put them on my laptop. Gah!

I'm ALMOST certain this was a joke in the chat room by players, nothing in game at all, I won't put money on it but tbh I'm just putting it down to a joke and nothing more.

Alright, question:

If 3P was going to communicate with each other:

1. Why would they do it in a chat room with dozens of Cubehunters reading all the chat messages?

2. Why would they do it under the user name 3P agent??? Wouldn't that be the biggest give away?

Come on guys, use your heads. This is so clearly a prank, it's not even funny.

Unless that's what they want us to think...
