 		Closing the discussion thread makes me SAD. We were on a roll there. Sad

 		It seems to me that it would be useless, because when Furikku tried to post anything about it, Love deleted her posts...

 		Dono what to think. But why the rebellion all of a sudden. Sounds like they were talking about a conspiracy of some kind. But if the children are BEK's then who are the people that they are afraid of??

I am just amazed at how many people got screencaps and records of this stuff when most of it only lasted on-screen for a matter of less than a minute.


I think given the habit of bits of the trail to suddenly disappear without a trace (eg, I never did see GMiller's original blog) people are (wisely) making records of anything that might be deemed... controversial.

As for confronting love about the children's messages - i doubt that this will be tolerated. at best posts will be deleted, at worst the "three strikes rule" mentioned in the "NOTHING IS HAPPENING" thread will be enforced.

I don't know how much we should trust the children, or anyone else for that matter. When it comes down to it, after all, the most obvious unifying impact of their varying statements has been to further feed the paranoia that's been growing since this began...

edit: how has thosedamnapes managed to post into a locked thread?

It is more ilovetofix's response to c12's post about "you ungrateful shits" and "you'll never go home" that makes me wonder.

So, let me take a different hypothesis this time. Take the current events at face value -- let's say there is no "Dark Muses" or "Father Paranoia", at least not in a mystical sense. Instead, you have a cult, dedicated to causing fear through experimentation or whatever. The cult abused Donald Wilson as a kid, the cult turned ilovetofix from a psychiatrist into a brainwashed member, and the cult has abducted children. The videos, and the whole project, summoning, etc. are just a method of experimenting with fear.

(Note, I don't think this is REALLY happening, but I think maybe that is what is happening in the ARG at this point.)

Good point, it could be love doing it. The only other replies to locked threads have come from the children and love: so I guess the only other explanation is that thosedamnapes is IG.

 		We're talking in chat, and apparently he got his 'three strikes' and is banned from there....we're guessing Love hijacked his account and making posts for him now.

 		So I guess confronting ilovetofix about the children's statements is a bad idea.

Any other way to go about digging into this? Assuming we are supposed to realize at this point that the whole Dark Muse thing is an evil plot that we want to foil, where else can we go? I'm trying to think of where we might have alternative unfollowed leads, but I'm coming up empty:

-the two not-dead former cubers have no email addresses
-we've tried to contact Jaime with no luck
-no way that I know of to contact Wilson and he's probably dead now anyway

The only unfollowed leads I have are the whole Pembry/Squeedleklotch connection, but I think that may be out of game. Anyone else have an angle outside the cube boards?

 		During the whole rebellion incident, I PMed Love to ask what was going on, and he sent one back saying "Nothing is happening.". Other people got the same responses from him when they PMed him.
I wonder if these count as strikes?
Thosedamnapes was never on my list of players who I suspected were also in-game. If he really got his account deleted, I feel for the poor guy.
What about Jamie's twin brother that they can't find? I just can't think of anything we could use to find him, when we aren't even sure of his name.

 		I was planning on trying to take advantage of the mention of them loving stories with liberal use of creepypasta from /x/.

Since the discussion thread is closed (GO TEAM LYRICSPAM!), I may have to find a new place to do that, though.

RE: the twin brother- I wonder if anyone involved on the cult side is really the twin?

I didn't thinkthey were IG either - I only mentioned it to try and exhaust what I saw as options. Evidently the first - that it was the children or love - was correct.

And it does appear that they really did get banned. It's harsh, but again, I guess the intention is to add to the atmosphere of creeping paranoia (see "What are you trying to hide"'s post in the guest discussion thread!)...
