How many disciples does PNL have now, and does he need more? I'm willing to be a double agent.

There are 4 disciples of the 36 so far.

Lots more are needed.

Just send Ludd an anti-robot email. If you like you can say that RockFish, Leatherman or Unice sent you. Wink

Ludd keeps saying that the 36 are going to be needed VERY SOON, and that we need to recruit new members and be ready for the reconfiguration.

After a few of us printed out the dice and failed miserably at taping them together successfully, rowan found the solve...

Way to go Rowan! Very Happy
When you get the time I look forward to reading all about the solve on wonder weasels. Smile
I only got as far as sticking the dice 80% together before I had to go to bed.

Pastor Ludd got back to me. Jeez, this guy can't spell for crap...

I wrote:
Dear Pastor Ludd,
I was linked several days ago to your videos on YouTube. I was skeptical in the beginning, but after the first few minutes I was completely absorbed in your words, and I watched all of them to the very end.

Thank you for revealing to me the abomination of robotics. I never realized just how devious Satan was, but now I see the truth: he is everywhere, just waiting for the right moment to strike! He has wormed his way into the thing that touches our lives the most often: robots!

I wish to be your student and your disciple and help spread the word that the AntiTech is coming!

Sincerely,
Riza Jones

Riza,

Welcome to the 36! When God decides to turn on a switch, it comes ON! yes? Thank you for heeding his call. Your perception will increase as your discipalship matures and grows. Please copy the others on the following questions so that we may begin to sense you and meditate on your role and name.

First, please tell us about the path that God led you to get here. List your special skills and knowlege for us so that we may help you to find your place. God has indded brought you here for a reason. No skill is irrelvant - This information will be compiled on your prifile and used to inspire the flock - which also brings me to your uniform - we all must make our uniforms in oranges and browns and we will need some storage and intimidation factors should we see direct combat with the robots. Please pronounce 1 of the 36 on your uniform if you have the textile skills to do so. It is important that we are a coherent force. We may be faced with the robots as we try to complete our mission. This mission is almost complette for me but I cannot risk all the details released just yet. I also need your location - city and major crossroads - please let me know whether your electrical systems near there are above ground or buried.

Disciples, please, if I have missed anything please correspond with our newcomer and welcome them to the fold. Our bonds will be forged in the great battle ahead. Know that God has brought us all together in his divine wisdom. He speaks through us now. He is going to use us as a large organ and our mission is blessed, so do not fear. There is no need.

Also, if you have not yet thought of it, you may consider holding a protest. Perhaps you can find another disciple or recruit some more near you so that we may display our righteous force and make it known that we will no longer stand still and let this roboperversion, this abomination to wash over us while we do nothing. It is time to STAND! I myself am planning to do the same.

Welcome Riza!
-PNL

I just received a really exciting message from Johnny. There will be something waiting for me at a local print shop after 1pm. Very Happy

I never thought there would be a deaddrop so close by. Very Happy I think this is a super great idea to reach players everywhere. I can hardly wait until 1pm.

As Rowan got her drop, and it came in a scrambled form, here is a proper legible copy after photoshopping all the pieces together

Awwww! @kittylope Smile

I went to pick up the deaddrop at a print shop that I've never been inside before (although I do often park nearby). At first there was a little bit of confusion as I was asked "Who is it from?", "How many pages?" "What is it?" and "When did they send it?". After I wrongly suggested that I might be there to receive a fax, I hit on the proper keyword of the day - "puzzle". Very Happy
The staff were very friendly, and the quality is good, so I'll be going back there when I have some printing needs. Smile

I'll be attempting my pick up tomorrow but I'm a little worried as Jain Hall is not my real name! When I gave my address I assumed it would be sent to my house. Wonder if I'll be required to show ID? I'll find out...

My pick up was left for "Lysithea", and I was not asked for id. However the whole idea of an arg drop was very novel to the print shop staff. Smile

Page 5 of 6 is of a medal from the 1960 Olympic games. (link)


EDIT:
I couldn't stop laughing after receiving my latest email from Pastor Ludd. Once you see my video, you will understand why. It is just missing the George of the Jungle theme song as a backing track. Laughing

RockFish,
You are a true inspiration RockFish! It is difficiult to stand alone, but believe me, in God's time, there will be more of us. You are NOT ALONE! "It is then that I carried you."

I don't mean to offend, but are you legally blind? Or perhaps the eyeholes in your intimidation vacade are too small? While it is very intimidating, I would suggest opening those eyeholes up a bit more. Just a tip.

God Bless you!!! I will have Johnny send that video uploaded soon!

I didn't have the foresight to realise that I might have to walk around in my 1 of the 36 battle outfit. In a still photograph, it doesn't matter if you are wearing a t-shirt on your head. Laughing

A translation of PostLarval's page (Found Here follows:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Was Vigenere, password was "god"

The following is formatted to avoid stretching the page and hurting people's eyes ;P
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
HELLO MY THIRTY SIX GLORIOUS DISCIPLES IN THIS PACKET ARE THE INSTRUCTION YOU WILL CARRY FORTH TO MAKE REAL MY VISION OF A WORLD FREE FROM THE SINFUL GRIPS OF ROBOTKIND
YOU HAVE HEARD ME PREACH ABOUT THE GREAT DAY OF REPROGRAMMING WHEN ROBOTS WHO ARE WIRED INTO THE GRID WILL RISE UP AGAINST HUMANITY AND DESTROY US ALL
BUT I DONT INTEND TO ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN WE WILL USE THE INTERCONNECTED GRID TO DESTROY ALL ROBOTS ON OUR OWN GLORIOUS DAY OF REPROGRAMMING
THERE ARE CURRENTLY SUBSTATIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD BY THE DAY OF REPROGRAMMING
THIRTY SIX OF THESE SUBSTATIONS WILL NEED TO BE ACTIVATED USING A CODE PROVIDED IN THESE DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO INPUT DEVICES CONTAINED IN THE SUBSTATIONS.
THESE ARE YOUR INSTRUCTIONS
PAGE TWO CONTAINS SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ONE OF YOU THAT YOU ARE WELCOME TO READ TO BE BETTER PREPARED FOR THE GLORIOUS DAY OF REPROGRAMMING
PAGE THREE CONTAINS A SIMPLE PUZZLE TO GIVE YOU THE DATE IN JULY THAT YOU WILL NEED TO ACTIVATE THE THIRTY SIX SUBSTATIONS BY
PAGE FOUR WILL HINT AT HOW TO FIND THE LOCATION OF THE SUBSTATIONS
PAGE FIVE CONTAINS THE CLUES NECESSARY TO FIND THE FOUR DIGIT PASSCODE YOU WILL NEED TO ENTER INTO THE INPUT DEVICES AND PAGE SIX CONTAINS THE KEY TO ALL OF THIS WHERE EXACTLY TO FIND THE INPUT DEVICE ONCE YOU DISCOVER A SUBSTATION
GOOD LUCK MY DISCIPLES WE WILL ALL BE SAVED VERY SOON

I corrected some mistakes I think I made while translating as well Razz

EDIT: PostLarval also pointed out nobody had posted the solve that came from Dirt_Diver's drop, so here it is just to be handy. No image, but it came from Bible passages I believe. Don't know the page number either

PNL just got back to me:

Pastor Ned Ludd wrote:
Welcome to the 36! God is great and his plan is unfolding every day. Our faith will be rewarded.

Forgive my breifness, but so much is happening I must be short. I am copying other disciples so that they can fill in the blanks if I have missed anything. I need a few things from you besiides your blind faith and trust in God's vision...

1) Where (City and crossroads) do you live? 2) Tell me about your electrical grid systems there - above ground, buried, Voltage, phases, Hz etc.

3) I need to know about your path that God has brought you down to get here. A bi of information and background regarding special skills or experience - then we can meditate about your Warrior name and give it to you.

4) Uniform - please assemble a warriors uniform of brown and orange, with storage areas for tools if need be - prominently dispalying 1 of the 36 on the uniform. Add elements of intimidation. Let your soul lead you. This will be displayed on your Warrior profile... on the myspaces on the home page

Thank you and PREPARE!!! Please consider protesting. RockFish has prepared a video to inspire you! I wil have Johnny put that up soon. FYI - Please do build into your intimidation headdress some kind of large eyeholes. Unless you are blind and accustomed to navigating without them...

God has Blessed you! Welcome to your place in history!


He needs a proof-reader.
