New Phone Call

OK, I emailed my number to the Transmission email address. I just got a call from the 2 of Clubs. I didn't get to the phone in time, so he left a voicemail.

He said he just got my number and wanted to touch base with me and share information that perhaps hasn't been passed on yet. He said he won't have any real important information until the rabbit hole opens. But he said he wanted to emphaszie this: "that the rabbit hole will open at silverladder.com". He said this was coming down directly from the Aces themselves, so you can pretty much bank on it."

I think this is pretty important, because we were not completely sure where the info would be given to us on 11/11.

I got the same call @ 11:06 pm EDT. spoke to him live. Said basically the ame thing.
In addition, all he would say about the time zone for 11:11 is that the site originates in the desert.
Athena is fine. Is in hot water with the Aces, but it is in her nature to be benevolent.
And that the Aces are proud.

Logical as hell, Sasuke. Smart as always. ^-^

Also, the phone numbers are from Washington, which is West Coast time anyway. So it makes sense.

To play devil's advocate, there's a good chance it could be in Arizona as well. There were lots of references to AZ in Silver Ladder, Bad Scary Place, and one of the deuces live there.

I agree
Az was my first thought as well.

Call from 2C, roughly translated.


Quote:
2C:Evan?
Me: Yes?

2C: This is the two of clubs how are you.
Me: I'm doing pretty good.
2C: Good. I'm going to try something different. I'm going to try being quiet, and let you talk for a while and if you need to ask question, go ahead, and if you need to make a statement you can do that as well. Before we do that, I'll let you know this, and I'd appreciate it if you'd pass it on: The two of diamonds is going to start contacting people pretty soon and I'm going to be going away for a while. Having said that, go ahead.
Me: Okay. I've was wondering, for a long time actually, about Raven's Claw…
Disinformation. The korp. was putting misleading info out there before they even announced their presence. People realized they existed when they stated their name. They were trying to lead people astray prior to that, though.
Me: Oh, okay. Uh, is there a certain type of person who you would want us to recruit? Because being on a college campus, I could easily put a message on a bulletin somewhere and get a lot of people, but they might not be the type of person you want…
2C: We want to include as many people as possible, we're pretty acceptant, but there's a certain type of person, you know, a lot of artists, a lot of people who listen to good music, thinkers, people who ask a lot of questions. people who aren't just pleased with "okay I'm gonna spend my Saturday at the mall" not that there's anything wrong with that. You, lisa, the waitress, forumluker, scaremonger. There's a certain thread running through you, there's a certain similarity. There's a type of person who will succeed more.

Pardon the silence, I'm doing something outside my nature. I tend to information dump sometimes and I tend to alienate people.
Me: I don't feel alienated
2C: Okay.
Me: Uh…where would you be going?
2C: Rephrase that, it could be taken in a lot of ways.
Me: I mean when you go away and 2D takes over, where will you be going then?
2C: I'm going to let someone else do the talking for a while, it's about personal growth, it's about the two of clubs being different from what it's always been. I thought you were asking where this was all going.
Me: Well, if we all knew that it wouldn't be any fun.
2C: yeah, and if we all knew, there'd be no point.
Me: That's all the questions I have, really.
2C: Some people have been concerned that a lot of outsiders don't understand, laughed about, if it makes them unhappy, don't do it. If something doesn't make you happy don't do it
2C: I hope that I helped, and later on the road the two of diamonds will start contacting people, and he's a lot different from me.

Ok, I am going to try and summarize my conversation with 2c last night.

I asked him why it seems that contact now is so redundant and not very informational.
He answered that this is all just motivation to keep us around until 11/11. They have passed on the information they have and they havent gotten anymore.
So then I asked why they began contactng us so early.
The aces wanted to find people that fit a certain mold. The current core is incredible and they are looking for quality in quantity. The spaghetti on the wall analogy was used.
I asked about 6c.
He responded by saying that 6es are interesting in their nature. All of the suits have a nature but so do each of the ranks. The nature of the 6es is no so great, it seems. There is good and bad in people and people can fool you.
In regards to 11/11: At silverladder.com something related to 2c will surface. 2c is the first card to be (properly) introduces. He will hang around for a week and then 2d will be (again properly) introduced. The cards will still exist after their week is over.
2c spoke again about one of us doing something that caused everything to turn 90 degrees. The aces have always emphasized flexibility. You can walk into a room and there will of course be walls, but we are the paint. This puzzle is made of liquid.

much respect

I got a message on MS from 2c saying the Athena that was in chat last night is fake and all deck members that appear live now have to point you back to a page at SL that proves who they are.

related to a phone call..
e-mail response from 2D...

ok.. Last night I got a phone call from Arizona... Phoenix, Arizona..

it's all in the IRC chat log..

I e-mailed 2D, and 2C for that matter... and I just received a reply.

here it is:

Quote:

ForumLurker,

I have been contacted about this and a few other things, by multiple
people. The phone call that you received is not from one of us. You will
never see the number that one of us is calling from. We apologize if it
seems impersonal, but due to the potential Korp presence anywhere, it must
be that way. It is highly unlikely that the Korp will ever call you from
a visible number either, as everything about them is highly shrouded in
secrecy.

Also, the "Athena Snows" that appeared to some of you last night, in the
form of an electronic vision, was false. She was either a Korp ruse, or
someone trying to get in good with The Korp by deceiving you.

I will tell you this much: until the rabbit hole opens, any cards that
speak with you live in an electronic format must furnish proof that they
are who they say they are. That proof will come in the address of a
unique verification page at Silverladder.

--

2D

Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy
them that hate me.
Psalm 18:40

Figured she was a fake. IT didn't seem very "card-like" to let that go down and then not post a bulletin or something to go along with it. While this is all liquid, there are still patterns so far Smile

Yeah, I had suspected as much.
Names in IRC are easy to steal.
And the King of Spades had given me a generous gift (something I needed, details in the original SL thread) earlier. I didn't trust the fake Athena from the start.

I'm about to leap headfirst into this game (Thanks, Lurker!)

Now, the website talks about a trip between Phoenix, AZ, and NAU in Flagstaff.

About timezones - Arizona is currently on Pacific, but we don't do daylight savings time, so when all of you guys are setting your clocks an hour back, Arizona will become Mountain time.

I just thought you'd all want to know that, since I live here and all. Smile
