OK, should be close on the transcript:

January 22nd, 2008

Every day I watch these campaigns turn more and more negative, more and more severe. If I were leading, I would bring our people to harmony, not cacophony, There ought to be a leader who leads for the people. A man of science, a man of intellect, a man of honesty, a man of empathy. He should not ever run on his own name, because these are the qualities that are lacking in the people today. These are the qualities that must be revitalized in the people. This man should not be a man who runs on his own steam - this should be a man of the people.

So is The Scientist throwing his hat in the ring for President? Does he, in fact, want to be The Man?

I actually ask my self, why this pages are called stolen journal.. who's journal is that? if it's the scientist's one, why is it called stolen, he shows us these pages..
and how was it possible for him to put the signs on our shirts?

That is the big problem I have had so far. I am trying to figure out how The Scientist would have been able to put codes on the shirts. There is much mystery surrounding him. The stolen journal could belong to The Man, but again, how would he have obtained it? So many questions.

Considering that the Scientist is pretty clearly opposed to the Man, and that the entry seems to support his ideas, I think we can safely say that he didn't write it. Between this (presumably it is the Man's journal) and the shirts, we could assume that the Scientist is someone close to the Man. Kate, perhaps? It would explain her paranoia... But that might be a stretch

Randy - Week 4

Task this week is to shoot a commercial for Man of the People. Webcam, powerpoint, or even a wikipedia page(!). I may just make a PP for them! Also, congrats to Telphi and Lairosiel - you guys got a mention!.

The video has some damn good music, in a hillbilly kinda way. Smile

EDIT: Do we upload our ads straight to 'video' section? I'm sure we do, but I don't really want to mess-up my first contribution to the campain; even if it isn't all the wonderful...!

Uploading straight to the video section is your best bet. We've uploaded all of our pictures to the photos page, so I think you'll be ok to do the same with videos. I think I too will be making a powerpoint show. That video was by far the best one yet.

Going back to the topic of the journal pages, I am really caught up on the last line of the first page. "It sickens my heart and leaves me cold to the human one". Is The Man an alien? Is Kate the "human one" he speaks of? Kate seems to be out of the picture with way Randy was talking. It just leaves me puzzled and curious. Just a thought.

First: I think the Journal Definitely Belongs to the Man.

Second: While it is possible that the Scientist is someone close to the Man and that is how the code was placed on the shirts, It is equally possible that it is a red herring and the code was placed on the tags just because that is a pretty cool way to send an IG Message. As I have been reminded in the past: When dealing with an Alternate reality there may be small inconsistancies that should be ignored. Not everything is a clue. But then again you never know for sure....

Got a new message from the scientist, in binary..
decoded it reads:

Quote:
I am very concerned. Things are getting serious, and time is running short. It is difficult for me to give too much information without risking everything. I will be in touch soon.
