UPDATE: chat between Jake and Dr. Zeladzny (dated Dec 8)

New file in Jake's NRU Research page (under "Personal"). It's a chat between Jake and Zeladzny about possible unauthorized hops:

> You there?
<KZELADZNY> Yes, what it is
> I found something odd I need to run by you
> in the logs
<KZELADZNY> hop logs?
> well, yes, but in the plant logs too-electric power load reports
<KZELADZNY> we have documented the power load already
> this is different, listen
> I was trying to get a handle on the logs so we can write that report HCRD is screaming for
> I needed the exact figures for the power loads so I started comparing the hop logs to the plant logs
> As we expected, there are significant power spikes each time the machine was used to hop
<KZELADZNY> Yes, the folding of quantal space continuum would cause significant power fluxes due to overlapping milliseconds as we suspected
> but that's not all---I matched up each test date with its corresponding power spike, and there are *extra* power spikes that don't correspond with any of our scheduled tests
<KZELADZNY> you think someone using machine without our knowledge? I think it would be hard to do so
> Hard but not impossible-we're not there 24/7
<KZELADZNY> No one else know how to set controls, we have not released any of our data
<KZELADZNY> there must be another explanation for this
<KZELADZNY> check against Catalina power grid reports, use my clearance code to get into their system
<KZELADZNY> trace back to Tucson if need be
> ok, but if there are unauthorized hops, there will be fingerprints in the timestream
> as soon as the protocol is approved, I can go look
<KZELADZNY> is too dangerous, we are not ready
<KZELADZNY> wait for protocol
> OK, I'll check the power grid stuff first
<KZELADZNY> yes, good
> but if there is nothing there, we will have to look into this further and find out what's going on

Did Jake discover one of the unauthorized "hoppers" on Dec 12th, four days after this conversation?

No, it's the time of the log, and is in 2002.

What day did Jake disappear?

I looked to find this, but didn't Jake disappear around this time?

That is correct. The date is listed on the police report (check Meg's website).

NRU's login not responding

Well I am not sure if its me, but when I went to the site to try to see this for myself I could not. I do have the correct passwords as posted in the guide link. I am VERY new to this type of interaction. Yet I am not sure if I am doing something wrong or if the "writers" have closed the logins due to too many logins and noticed security issues. BTW: If I have broke any protocol I appologize now, please let me know how not to next time.

Nash, I had the same problem last night. I had to delete my cookies and then finally reboot my computer before I could login thru the research page. I hope this helps.

I guess that means I am out of this one.

I have tried everything I know to get into NRU research. And I have the correct passwords. I have contacted technical support, and the the promise of a response in 24 hours has been broken. So with the technical difficulties, me being in Iraq, and using a govt computer to try this, I can no longer play unless something can be done. See you all on the next ARG.

Nash, I know how frustrating it is when you can't get to ingame sites, but we who can, usually post all the information for all to read and use, so that could be a way for you to continue playing Acheron. Please don't quit just yet, maybe technical support will come thru. If there is something you've read about from the research pages and the actual info hasn't been posted, let me know and I will see to it that it gets posted or that you get the info needed.

Nash it also might be a matter of resetting the cookies and clearing the cache files, it could be that if an invalid login was used previously that is stored on the cookie or how the browser stores the frequently visited web sites for quick viewing again. The browser must be able to check for new information each time the web page is visited and not use only what is in the cache, and clearing out the cookies and letting them be reset is a good idea to do from time to time anyway.
