Sure but this page was supposedly left here by one the six who wrote the codex, not by theo himself (well... according to theo, right, but still)

i think that the arrow marked on the page, is to mark the bottom of the first labyrith ring?? mabey

Has anyone else got the 'mission comleat' message yet, or just us two (me and khaos)

anyway, i know TheO are surpose to be the bad guys but, what if they do trust us now, i think that this might lead to a hidden codex page, mabey theo wants us to find it before the rest of the players do.

i think the next step should be to contact Theo, khaos you can do the honours as u've done the most work. Just ask them what is the next step for thier lastest minions.

matt.

Nevertheless, that person was "the first counter-agonotheta", according to Theo, and Theo's members "believe it is an artifact of the first counter-agonotheta's work". Either that supposed counter-agonotheta had an uncanny talent for being misunderstood and starting movements s/he didn't actually want to start, or her/his instructions are intended to increase desynchronization.

Or that first counter-agonotheta figured something wrong in the six theory and theo is really the good guy Wink

(Actually, it's what the last Ariadne's videos seem to mean too)

Code:
Legend has it that in 1920, one member of the original six was left behind -- and this lost agonotheta became the first counter-agonotheta. This document, which has been in Theo's possession for the past four years, was allegedly created five years after the original agonothetai left – and today members of Theo believe it is an artifact of the first counter-agonotheta's work. It passed into the hands of the Theo network when an agonothetai of the 2004 team defected to work with us. He recovered it at an abandoned Codex hiding spot.

Is this card that you are doodling the 7 circuit on a scan of the "artifact of the first counter-agonotheta's work" or is there another artifact out there that TheO has?

And who do they mean by the "he", the agonothetai of the 2004 who team defected? A pal of Renata's? someone new to track down? or James? Or?

I guess the artifact mentioned is that "kiddies of the canyon" pic. But maybe Theo has some more of those artifacts, and who knows what's in there...

And the defector could have been even Renata herself, as the 2004 group was hers, right?

Wasn't the Olympics postcards that started everything (trailhead?) also from the 1920s Olympics?

Theo's uninitiation missions certainly seem more attractive than the training labyrinths at the moment, since they are personal and more or less easy to fulfill (while it seems impossible to find enough people for a training labyrinth at my place).

[META] But if this ARG is supposed to culminate in the Olympic Game, and Theo=Theodosius (Theodosius being the guy who BANNED the Olympic Games), Theo must be the bad guy.
Although the fact that he or one of his people i quoting Bacon on Markus's blog still makes me doubt that theory as well. Extremely confusing. How are we to know whether we are on the right side? (Is there a "right side", anyway?)

As long as we don't have any more DETAILED information, the right side can only be with the six. Why ? because they're the only ones with a whole codex backing their theory.

Bring me an "un-codex" wrote by the counter-agonothethai or Theodosius family and then i'll start to wonder if my side is the good one.

Until then, i'll stay with Lucie. (and i'll continue my infiltration to stab Theo from behind whenever i can)

Well, it's all about labyrinths, even for us, even meta, isn't it?
