 		What are you thinking, C.G.?

And yeah, Jeppe, I agree. The Truth is not being very chatty.

 		I'm wondering if I should attempt a side switch.

 		I'm still on the side of The Truth. I'm not sure who else is. One dilemma I'm having with this scenario is that this whole 'infiltration' thing we're supposed to be doing on our respective sides could kinda make the board IG for the players. But thebruce pointed out to me that it would probably make for a more enjoyable game if we shared information and worked together, even from different sides. Anyway, in the spirit of that, I'm gonna gather together my correspondance with The Truth and post it in a bit. Anyone else care to weigh in on this?

I'm also on the Truth's side. And I'm also in a bit of trouble when it comes to 'infiltrating the other side', it seems to me that, if the purpose of the game is to create two 'teams', then it might be more enjoyable if we kept at least some of our correspondance secret. However, I'm not certain of this at all

ok, the PM emailed me after I posted that to tell me that he/she isn't using the boards IG themselves, and to pass it on. I still feel like you though, Jeppe, that maybe we shouldn't be making all of our correspondance public, but I'm not sure either. I can see how it might hinder the advancement of the game to keep it secret. Yet, it seems like posting it would defeat the purpose of 'infiltration'. I'll see if the PM emails me more on the subject.

I do not believe that we are meant to split into two sides. I think that by infiltrating , we are not switching sides, but are to work for the truth from within the child's team. Personally, I also have not ever been involved in an ARG where it wasn't to our benefit for the PM's to know what we are doing. IMHO it is i our best interest to post openly in order to keep on track. Any PM worth their salt would never use info posted here to effect the game. That being said, I am not fond of the idea of the PM contacting "players" to emphasize that they are not posting here. Doesn't seem right in a way as it takes away from the reality in alternate reality.

 		Ah, yeah, that makes alot more sense. I think the whole 'sides' thing is confusing some of us. Thanks for clearing that up! Time for me to suck up to Ms. Princess, I guess...

Negative.


I'm also confused. And the idea of the "two teams", I'm also not sure, because, as one of you said, most of those siding with the Child are doing it for the sake of getting something for Truth. But yeah, I want to see what the PM has to say about it.

 		True enough about the two sides. When considering the two sides, it is also obvious that the Child is the bad guy, likely to hurt the players 'joining' her sooner or later. Also considering that it was the Truth who initiated the scenario, by asking players for help

 		I don't think i'm gonna hear from the PM again. He/she just sent me one really short, to the point OOG email wanting to reassure us that this board is OOG to them at least. So, I'm just gonna go with the assumption that we should all be helping The Truth and infiltrating the child's group. That being said, I asked the truth what we should be trying to find out about the child, and here is what followed:

The Truth:
Quote:
Try to find out about where she is hiding.

We sense that one among her elite is feeling a need to break away from her.


Me:
Quote:
Ok, I will try. I know she's on an island, but so far that is all I know. I have seen some pages on the web that I believe she has put up. There are various pictures and writings and poetry. I will search through these for a clue and continue trying to talk to her.


The Truth:
Quote:
Use her growing anger with the child to bring her to our side.


So, assuming that the child is 'the princess', I guess 'her' refers to the elite that's about to break away? I'm guessing this 'one among her elite' is the person behind the livejournal page, but I could very well be wrong.
