 		I got a reply from Dwayne!

Quote:
What? Is HE the asshole sending me all this crap?

I'm so angry now Id probably beat his ass if I met him. You know this guy? Who the hell is he?

I was only at the computer for a minute, got my twenty bucks and bolted. Now this guy is stalking me?!?

Is this a cult thing or something?


To which I have replied...

Quote:
Hello Dwayne!

Oh no nothing like that dude - I wouldn't worry about it - as far as I can gather, he's trying to develop his english skills and I don't think he understands the californian 'slang' - I imagine he just wanted to have to talk to you again to try and understand it a little more Smile

Like I said I don't know exactly what he would like to contact you for, but he's a friend, if it's anything - I trust him and it's not a cult or anything heh.

Regards,
Chris


Hopefully he'll calm down Smile

 		Not stereograms Sad

But just static type images...

I've got the first one decoded apart from theres a webaddress at the bottom - presumably i've 'hacked' the image to make it work - and there will be a piece of software that will remove all but the text...

The yellow picture says:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"In the truest sense,
freedom cannot be
bestowed; it must be
achieved."

I seek your help, but
you must prove yourself
worthy first...

The path shall be
revealed soon.

 		Put the images together and came up with the attached image. Sent it to Dwayne already.

ETA: BTW, each image contained one useful color channel. For the yellow image, only the blue channel contained info, green for the magenta image, and red for the cyan image.

ETA2: Reply from Dwayne:
Quote:
Look, man, I don't really care. I put those images up, the mail stopped. I dont care if the image had the answers to wednesday's test, I'm done with this.

If you find this guy, tell him id better never meet him again.

Nice.

 		I know, I've been waiting for the puzzles to start. Let's just say that interaction isn't really my forte.

EDIT:
Was this just meant for Dwayne, or are we meant to prove ourselves to Joshua with this as well?

 		Presumably for us all? it would seem that its a test for us sent to dwayne to pass onto us (as he said... show this to others)

Reply from Joshua...

So far as I can tell, it's written by an unknown author - but its certainly setting the scene for what could happen Smile

 		So, not stereograms. I suppose incoherent blobs could look like surfing if that's what you expected to see. Very Happy

Anyway, someone needs to send to this address and offer help to Joshua.

This implies that he doesn't trust the Looking Glass staff to help him achieve freedom.

 		I've had similar responses. Dwayne emailed me, asking me if I was related to "that asshole" I told him about LG labs. "Thank you for contacting Looking Glass Laboratories.

We are in the process of finalizing the website, so please stay tuned to the coming days for our official launch.

Looking Glass Laboratories - Turning Dreams Into Reality.." is what I'm getting from white rabbit now. And so the chase begins I guess.

 		LGL have made a statement saying we shouldnt have contacted Dwayne and anyone who attempts to discuss Joshua with an outside source will be released and subject to legal action. They are also watching all messages now.

 		Little late, I managed to get one question in before Q/A went down last night. Took quite a while to get an answer back.

Answer: If it violates any predefined conditions or guidelines, such as the Three Laws of Robotics, yes.
