What about after the Cube is found? What's going to happen after the Cube is found? Even if the info given to us now is enough to find the Cube and someone does, we still don't know who V is, or who V's boss is. Is Mind Candy just going to end the game?
Will Season 2 involve clearing up that mystery, or will there be a whole new one to discover?

l00ks like you just gave them enought to do season 2 with. i thought the 3P would "steal" it from the winner, and rehide it, or something. who knows, but MC's smart enought, i'm in for the long ride!

I am under the impression that there are two possible paths for season two:
If we find the Cube, season two will be about getting it safely back to PXC.
If we do not find the Cube by the time season two starts, 3P or some other antagonist recovers it, and we get to try to recover it from them (for $400,000, perhaps?).

I think we should send an open letter to the 3P basically saying "Neener neener, we have the cube and you don't! Earth rules, 3P drools! Neener neener!"
(Of course, we'd say it in a slightly more mature manner . . . but that's the sentiment.)

Duh, season 2, the Brotherhood lose the immensely powerful sacred protractor.

I for one, think that would be bloody hilarious, as it'd give them the impression that they were beaten by 70,000 odd 7 year olds

Okay, you can write the "neener neener neener"-ing letter!

I'd LOVE to write a neener-neener letter to the 3P, as soon as we find out who the heck they are.
Anyway, I hope they don't use another lost-object-reward scenario if they do another season (major risk of formulaicness there), but MC is probably smart enough to think up something cool.

I was thinking that we'd treat the letters as sort of an open letter deal, much the way we did with the criticism of Earlywine's ham-handedness.
And since they now know that the Third Power is real, I don't think they'll be calling us crackpots anymore.

I'd like to put this out there..
I'm not going to find the cube. I've come to accept that (AAAAHHH!!!!!!), but I'd like to remind the person who does find it, that a lot of blood has been spilled over this thing. We don't know what it can do, and before we just hand it back to mind candy (we can't trust everyone), we need to examine this thing to know what kind of power we are dealing with.
200,000 dollaz is a lot, but if you give up the power to someone who is going to misuse it, that money is blood money.
Also, there should be some way to alert everyone that the cube has been found without putting the crosshairs on any one player (all our information can be found through our profiles... we don't want to let secure information fall into unsecure hands).
Might I suggest that the person who finds the cube post pictures of it on unfiction or perplexorum under a guest or new screenname?
just sayin..

Oh c'mon, some of us have been involved with this game for over two years. They'd piss off so many people if they decided on doing that

Thats almost as bad as my (fake) plan for the cube, hold it hostage for more money Keep in mind ths was a complete joke at cubefest and I have no chance of finding the cube so no chance of using the plan if I wanted to.

Not bad.
If I'd found it, I was considering keeping on top of the TV at home, or maybe here in my cubicle... At least to see how long it took some one else to discover that it wasn't where was supposed to be burried and to really start asking questions. The $200000 would be too tempting in the end though.
Oh well, it looks like I won't have that oppotunity this time. Maybe the Mysterious Tetrahedron will end up in Canada. Or the Wonderous Dodecahedron. Or even, the Fantastic Klein Bottle!!
Ok, that got a little silly...

I'm hoping they put enough pictures of the cube up (either whoever finds it, or MC) to give a good idea of whats on it. I've got a 10x10 block of ally, a CAD program and a super duper CNC machine that is just itching to make me my own copy.
Not for anything nefarious you understand, just cause after all the energy i've spent looking for this sucker, I'd like a souvenier to put on my desk.
I do hope they've got somethign cool planned for season 2, part of what i love about it is the how enigmatic the cube is.
Does that make sense? can an inanimate object BE enigmatic?
EDIT: Oh, and here's hoping they throw a party

Ah, an OPEN letter to 3P. That actually sounds like a pretty good idea, assuming there's enough left of 3P to read it. Most of them were caught or killed in the Ascendancy raid after all, and the ones that are left might be working for some other group (read the latest Quirky Acuity thread for speculation about that). Perhaps we could write just an open letter to "Caine and his associates" (assuming Caine doesn't turn out to have been set up). Picture him getting a "neener neener" letter behind bars, that would REALLY sting.
