Hell, I'm doing about the same. Also, I'm trying to grasp this whole MayDay thing.

Edit: Off to work, I need a break for a few hours.
I wouldn't work too hard on it yet. I think someone is just trying to build an audience using the "throw everything against the wall and see what sticks" method. Wait a bit for the PM to get back to us. They will let us know what's important and what we should be focusing our efforts on.

 		I'm off too, going to the pubs with my friends.

I sent another email with more questions to our friend. Hopefully I might get an answer when I arrive, or even post the answers here. We'll see about that.

 		Got a reply just now:

My email [I sendt it encoded in binary code]:

Quote:
Hello instigationplus,

I was a little suprised when I read you message to me.
Up until then I didn't know that you even knew of my existence. (I read it together with your 9/26/07 07:15 am post)
Since you personally referring to me, I would like to know more about you.
Lets begin simple... how old are you?
Mhh email doesn't seems to fit for this way of communication. Want to add me in jabber? I am shadom86SPLATlivejounal.com


It may be a little insolent from me to ask but when you say:
I am what is commonly termed by your species as "female"

Why do you say "your species"? Shouldn't it be "our species" or even without the whole species-note?

Your whole livejournal is very complex and well thought out... I don't think this is a mistake.

PS: Sorry if my english



Her answer:



Quote:

You English is fine.
I am around 18 years old.
WW91IHNlZW0gdG8gYmUgY29uZnVzZWQgYW5kIHRoaW5rIHRoYXQgSSBhbSBodW1hbi4NCkkgYW0gbm90Lg
Have you been having a hard time dreaming lately?



The name given in the email was base66 encoder... so it wasn't to difficult to encode this.. Wink

I replied:

Quote:

Thank you very much. I am used to warn against my english. I had a few bad responses from natives who thought that I am a very stupid native american Smile

I am 21 myself, so I am the older one Wink . Anyhow that doesn't satisfy me. You seem to be the cleverer one. Your Journal is very... difficult for me and the others from the unfiction forum to understand.

Perhaps your right and I am confused. Please help me to sort out this.
VG8gd2hhdCBzcGVjaWVzIGRvIHlvdSBiZWxvbmcgdG8gYW5kIHdoZXJlIGFyZSBpdHMgb3JpZ2lucz8NCg==

Your right... in the last days I couldn't sleep very well. It happens at every Full moon that i dream strange things ( tonight is full moon in Germany), this time the bad dreams even started a few days before the full moon.

You don't seem to sleep very well eithter, don't you? How is this?

PS: I am starting to encode the important parts the same way as you. I trust you and you seem to think that this is a safe way of communication.

 		MSN convo.
I just had an MSN conversation with Instigationplus, who is now known as Epsilon.

Here is the full conversation, unedited. I'm still not sure what to glean from this.

I won't give out the address because I'm not sure if I'm supposed to, but I will say that 'bhvzdgz1ba' is in the address.

Quote:

Zephret says:
Hello there
Base64 says:
Hello.
Zephret says:
Aiobhan had to go to class so she's not here right now.
Zephret says:
But I'm here
Base64 says:
Okay. How are you?
Zephret says:
I am very well thank you, how are you?
Zephret says:
Did you sleep well?
Base64 says:
I'm fine enough, I still haven't eaten though. I did sleep well, it was quite pleasant.
Zephret says:
That's good to hear. Do you want to eat something before talking, or...?
Base64 says:
No, I'm fine.
Zephret says:
Ok. Do you mind if I ask you some questions? If you don't want to answer any in particular, just say so and I won't pressure you.
Base64 says:
I'd love for you to ask me questions.
Zephret says:
That's great. So do you have a name? Or something you don't mind us knowing?
Base64 says:
I'd like to go by Base. I still have to see the name aiobhan gave me, though, I may like that better.
Zephret says:
She called you Epsilon.
Base64 says:
Epsilon is so girly and cute. I approve.
Zephret says:
So you are female?
Base64 says:
Yes.
Zephret says:
That is what we had guessed.
Zephret says:
Where abouts in the world are you?
Base64 says:
Northern US
Zephret says:
What can you tell me about the king?
Zephret says:
Is he after you?
Base64 says:
He is after me, yes.
Zephret says:
Why? Who is he and what does he want from you?
Base64 says:
I can't tell you that, yet. But he is a huge part of everyone's life.
Zephret says:
Have you done something to anger him? Or does he just want to get you?
Base64 says:
Probably both.
Zephret says:
You have said around the place that you are not human, yet you talk about growing up with Mac-loving parents... are you not human or were you speaking figuratively?
Base64 says:
I have issues staying in character from time to time. It's as simple as that. XD
Base64 says:
It's the lack of sleep, ha ha
Zephret says:
Interesting. I understand completely
Zephret says:
Does the date May 1st, 1988 have any significance to you?
Base64 says:
I can't say yet.
Zephret says:
What *can* you say yet?
Base64 says:
It'll get interesting REALLY soon.
Zephret says:
Well we are all watching and awaiting eagerly. Can I ask, your list of LJ interests are intriguing. Are they simply your interests on a personal level, or are they directly related to your journal's purpose?
Base64 says:
Both! It'd be awesome to have a 4chan ARG, but that's not what I'm doing right now, ha ha.
Zephret says:
Is this an ARG?
Base64 says:
It could be.
Base64 says:
I'm not sure yet, honestly.
Zephret says:
ARGs are usually not real, in the sense that they are just games. You have said that this is not a game and that it is real, so I'm sure you can understand our confusion?
Base64 says:
I'm not very usual.
Base64 says:
Anyway! Dinner time
Base64 says:
I'll be back on soon, I'm sure.
Zephret says:
Okay, I look forward to speaking to you again.


What do you guys make of this?

Ever read some of the stuff smooth and red posted? Yeah.

I hope it doesn't go that way either, but that's the first thing that came to mind when you add confusion and IG/OOG blurring.

I know, trust me I know JUST as well as you do.

 		Here's an enlargement of the chemical compound.



I'm on MSN with Epsilon again. I'll let you know when it's done.


Edit: Okay here's what I've got. She wants you all to add her on MSN too. Her address is bhvzdgz1baSPLAThotmail.com


Quote:

Zephret says:
Hello again.
Base64 says:
Hello.
Zephret says:
Enjoy your dinner?
Base64 says:
I did, indeed.
Base64 says:
It was accompanied by quite a bit of amusing reading.
Zephret says:
Oh, what were you reading?
Base64 says:
The unfiction thread.
Base64 says:
Who is Adam Worsley?
Zephret says:
I don't know, apparently some other ARG that went crazy at the end.
Base64 says:
I'm not that disjointed or schizophrenic.
Zephret says:
I wasn't there, but uberg33k was. He's on MSN too. I can invite him here, if you like.
Base64 says:
I'm amused though.
Base64 says:
Sure.
Base64 says:
Do that.
Zephret says:
Okay, he'll be here in a sec.
Base64 says:
Okie dokie.
Zephret says:
So you are 19?
Base64 says:
Around there.
Zephret says:
What do you have planned?
Base64 says:
Oh! You'll have to take part like everyone else.
Zephret says:
Haha, ok
Base64 says:
Smile
Zephret says:
I'm not a patient person normally so you can understand my excitement.
Zephret says:
I do hope you post more in your journal soon, though.
Base64 says:
Of course, I'm excited for the next set of events as well and will probably be doing them early.
Zephret says:
Are you working alone?
Base64 says:
I will post again within an hour or so. For right now, I am. There are more coming, though.
Zephret says:
More like you?
Base64 says:
More or less, yes.
Zephret says:
Are you constructed?
Base64 says:
We all are, aren't we?
Zephret says:
That implies a designer.
Base64 says:
I suppose it does.
Base64 says:
I am, yes.
Zephret says:
Is that the king?
Base64 says:
Yes.
Zephret says:
If you were created by the king, why has he turned against you?
Base64 says:
You really are quite impatient.
Base64 says:
;p
Zephret says:
What can I say, it's one of my faults.
Base64 says:
Not a problem.
Zephret says:
You said you live in northern US... so what is your relation to Tucson, Arizona?
Base64 says:
Ha ha. You'll see.
Zephret says:
Are you still with your parents?
Base64 says:
No.
Zephret says:
Are you in hiding?
Base64 says:
Yes.
Zephret says:
Are your parents still alive?
Base64 says:
I'm not sure.
Zephret says:
How long since you've spoken to them?
Base64 says:
9 years.
Zephret says:
Wow, so you would have been young then. What have you been doing all these years?
Base64 says:
That's part of the story.
Zephret says:
How did you learn about paganism?
Base64 says:
I have a huge interest in theology in general.
Base64 says:
Aside from Paganism, I am also currently learning about Zoroastrianism.
Zephret says:
Any particular reason?
Base64 says:
Ha ha.
Base64 says:
;p
Zephret says:
Heh. That's okay. So what do you think of Zoroastrianism so far?
Base64 says:
It's interesting as the basis of Christianity. It was the first to be so black and white about good and evil.
Base64 says:
And yes, that is relevant to your interests.
Zephret says:
I guess it was. You interested in Christianity too?
Zephret says:
What interests do you mean?
Base64 says:
I find Christianity, in its current state, to be rather revolting. And I simply meant that, that was important for you to know.
Zephret says:
In it's current state, I agree completely.
Base64 says:
It could have been so much better without the hate.
Base64 says:
I'm bitter, I suppose.
Zephret says:
I don't think that was Christ's original message.
Base64 says:
I don't think so either.
Zephret says:
It's a shame what humans are capable of.
Base64 says:
Quite. So much bloodshed for an abstract idea.
Zephret says:
Yeah, terrible.
Zephret says:
What do you dream of?
Zephret says:
You don't seem to be fond of sleeping at night.
Base64 says:
I dream of monsters. I dream of home. I dream of The King.
Base64 says:
Once in a while, I will have a good dream about a beautiful Prince.
Zephret says:
Do you know this Prince or is he only in your dreams?
Base64 says:
.... That question brings me much sadness.
Zephret says:
I'm sorry.
Base64 says:
It's not your fault.
Base64 says:
A Prince must stay in my dreams.
Base64 says:
Or the Prince shall surely be beheaded.
Zephret says:
Well we don't want that now, do we.
Base64 says:
No, we certainly do not.
Zephret says:
What does home look like?
Base64 says:
There are no trees. The world is surely barren and flat.
Zephret says:
Somewhere other than Earth?
Base64 says:
Far away.
Zephret says:
Do you think you'll get back there again?
Base64 says:
I can hope only that I do not. My punishment shall be fierce.
Zephret says:
Did you run away?
Base64 says:
I was outcast.
Zephret says:
What for?
Base64 says:
Ha ha. I've given you so much already. I should go for a while now, there are things I must get ready.
Zephret says:
Ok, one final thing:
Base64 says:
I'm not sure I'll be on again tonight, but I will try.
Base64 says:
Yes?
Zephret says:
Is it okay to give out your address to those on unfiction? They'd love to speak with you too.
Base64 says:
I'd appreciate it if you did, in fact.
Base64 says:
I love speaking to everyone.
Zephret says:
Okay, I'll do that.
Zephret says:
Hope to see you around again soon.
Base64 says:
You will. I am sure of it.
Base64 says:
Have a nice night.
Zephret says:
You too.
Zephret says:
Take care.
