The big thing about the conversation....

It seems to relate to the creepy.wav file, where Durga and Jersey are talking about people listening in on people that are listening in on other people. It then talks about the fact that she's in Group 1 there, and the possibility that someone could be listening in on her, and someone could be listening in on people listening in on her.

At which point, we have either a high-end conspiracy theory or a comedy sketch. You pick.

It could also point to SP being Durga, due to the similar reaction. But that's just [SPEC] on my part.

Extern proc 2 is the label the princess uses at the end. I think she is telling us there is another enitity inside the computer, we only had extern proc 0 and 1 before. Those were the flea and the princess. She says it is another spy program, so I wonder if this is Durga? Although it doesn't seem right.

To point out something obvious to some but probably surprising to others, "the eaten path" is probably a reference to Bungie's game Marathon Infinity, which had a level called " Eat the Path. "

She doesn't say it's another spy program. She says she found another spy-spot not bot. I think it's in reference to the coordinates moving.

But I see what you're saying as regards another process running.

At first blush, I took it to mean that we are listening to the SP and someone is listening to us.

Wow, it was so nice of you to stick the spoiler in the subject tag. Good work!

spec : some thoughts

When I read that last bit by the Princess (she is not sleeping) I get an image in my mind where the mirror refects itself over and over and you get the receeding boxes. From an audio point of view, does that mean these repeating hearings are echos?

another thought: If recipies are in the kitchen, then the honey is in the pantry.

The extern proc 2 thing might hint to another .wav file maybe involving Durga finding out that others actually ARE listening to her and Jersey's conversations. As of now it's just [SPEC], but I guess we'll just have to get more hot axons to figure anything else out.

I have a question, if the SP is so disgusted by the flea, then why is she talking to him at all, especially since he seems to be on the Queen's side? Also, by the flea saying "creepy" at the end, does this mean he is capable of learning other languages (without the whole computer language thing)?

Moving SPEC to other thread

Hate to do this to you guys, but it would be really great if we could keep the speculation on what the conversation is about/means/etc in the "General/Updates" thread on the Princess/Flea conversation found HERE in order to cut down on double posts and two lines of spec going on the same topic.


I'm going to lock this thread in order to facillitate that.

Cheers and thanks!
