Yes, that's the one I use. It was the transcription that was holding me up until I realized that Madhouse had that nice post of the 1's and 0's... cake walk from there Very Happy

Why? I assume you have a reason since the rumkin takes 1's and 0's and I want to know... heck I NEED to know

 		**while I was sleeping** Y'all rock and thanks,esp. SuperSlug and kninjite.

chiarac--m.r.mulders is my game email used to hide from strangers that they're mailing a female. Way before the Baconian blog entry I'd asked Providence about her sister(who I find somewhat suss). So, no mystery name there-just me. Smile

it sounds like you are asking why they replaced the 1's and 0's with A's and B's

the reason is because we were working under the idea that it was binary and so put it all in 1's and 0's

someone else thought it may be baconian (and in retrospect we were receiving hints that it was) baconian requires a's and b's instead of 0's and 1's

 		You know, I really should have gone with my gut on this one you guys... but I'm pretty sure I'm massively effed-up.

Ok, so apparently I'm not meant to be trusted InCharacter. I'm not used to the whole not lurking thing yet. I guess negative progression of the game is better then no progression at all.

Any idea where to go from here?

 		Thank you for quoting Jurassic Park by the way. Cool

Gonzo- Don't worry, this was part of the game. If he didn't get it out of you, he would have from someone else.

Now I guess we either wait to see what "reformed" means, or try to warn her and see if she can stop it.

Not a single clue unfortunately. It that anyone in the unfiction forums.

P.S I'll second on that Jurassic Park reference. That was golden.

You're welcome. Glad someone noticed it. Smile

Now that Dr. Green has access to the blog and to the email addy of Providence, is there any way to contact her without Green seeing it?

Thanks. I wanted to antagonise him (For some reason, I dont like Dr Green since I started talking to him the first time I spoke to him) but do it subtly enough so that he wouldnt just storm off.
