Lying, in no way explains your lack of concern.


> What is this anyway, Q&A? Can I ask some questions back?


So you're actually going to play along now?

> Who even are you?


My online alias is Azure Wolf. ******* I also discovered a web site touting an ideal of helping everyone everywhere by changing the world in our own backyards. On this web site myself and a few acquaintances (I'll get to them later) discovered some "secret" goings on, and found that these people, CFG if you will, we're doing more than local good deeds. They were attempting to take down a corporation that has gone way beyond it's authority. Of course you know this company as Blackwell Briggs. The actions of BB are way out of line, likely even more so than I know. Something seriously wrong is going on in Zambia with their Pipeline project (You don't know what that is either do you? Or maybe you do but will entertain yourself with unclear, circular answers?). Now the former leaders of CFG are missing and we'd very much like to know why.


> I'm going to be frightfully embarrassed if it turns out you've been The Man all along.


I am A man, not The man.

> Who are your friends?


Those who fight evil (yes it does exist, in the most vile of forms) and wish to do good in the world are my friends. If you mean acquaintances: Cyngs, Phyxius, Shizzire you've all spoken to. There is also AgentLex and Grindboy who reside in the UK, then there is SamuelofR247, B-mot, DayOfTheZen, JCHillerup, and Rinflame. All, as far as I know, in the same boat I described above. Acquaintances with a common cause, does that make us friends?

> No. I did not.


Heh so you did get hacked by KC then. No wonder you're jealous of Bieber.


> No, not at the moment. But I know she's not in the UK.


Do you know where ANY of the former leaders are? Specifically, Argyle North, Greenmarine, Vauxhall, Kestrel, Baleen, TKAT, and the infamous KC?

----

Well thanks for finally giving me some straight answers, glad to see you are capable of being direct. BTW how's that favor coming? I'd be glad to do something to earn it, just name your task.

Knave to me

That's ...really beside the point, but whatever.


I know there is a pipeline project in Zambia, but there are projects everywhere. Multinational, etc. I haven't got any specifics, but not everything that happens there is bad, you know. Should I look into this for you? Would that annoy anyone? Will there be cake? I just don't know.

Oh I have, have I, okay, which one is Phyxius? Common causes make excellent friends! If temporary. (You shouldn't trust all of these people you mention, I'm just saying. Of course you shouldn't trust me so that's kind of pickle isn't it, maybe I should just be quiet.)


> Heh so you did get hacked by KC then. No wonder you're jealous of Bieber.

I can neither conform nor den- eh, to hell with it: he's probably brilliant but whatever; he forgot the first rule of anything: don't get caught doing it. (Bieber? What's with the name calling? Look I'm supposed to be the ~*villain*~ of this little show I thought.)

Getting any confirmation out of anything here is harddd. No one wants to talk about this! Bright ideas are going around here about changing everything from communication policies to security protocols. I do wonder who exactly will be stuck working on this, I do. But enough about me, I guess some of them have been arrested, and I guess some of them disappeared of the radar. I heard someone got killed, but I don't know. (And I certainly hope not, tyvm.)


Give me a few days, mkay.

Oh and this is for you:
http://knowyourmeme.com/i/000/050/351/original/tilt-at-windmills-slay-giants.jpg


The pic is awesome, I'm going to use it for my avatar on CFG I think. Anyway, so fess up. Either Shizz or Cyng is playing for the other side, since he didn't know phyx, it could only be one of you two. I know Shizzire already did once, but he showed remorse. And Cyng...well maybe your relationship is a little more serious than it seems Twisted Evil

ETA: Fixed a few formatting c/p errors.

i really don't appreciate being called out like this as some sort of test of loyalty; as far as i'm concerned, the damage is done to my reputation, what little of one i have

i held back my emails with jack simply because i got the idea that certain members did not care for the tone of them.

i'm laying all my cards down now for everyone to see (i'll make sure to announce to everyone when i *fart* next time too):

from me:

subject You've made me blush pink (and in soooo many places)

How noble of you to fall on your spade, and for little old me. I'm hardly worth it, if you haven't dedeuced it.It's also admirable how you are willing to handle the Black Bitch (and other BB's) so close to the palm of your hand. But Be careful, Jack. I wouldn't want you to get burnt, especially now since we are Becoming Fast FriendS.

What were we playing for again?Love of the game?That game was just a dummy hand. You need to toss your ante in if you want to play for realz. I'll throw in any chips you desire if we are playing for keeps.

The real question is, what are the stakes? Perhaps you should ask your stakeholder friends to please advise.

I have to say that I'm quite puzzled over the cipher contained in your image name. FU4CAS???

F me please!!!

but 4 CAS? Cuddles and sexsies???

dull jack makes work a poor boy

Let the Friar flagellate himself in his austere cloisters over your enigmatic codes.

Kiss Kiss Keep It Simple Spade,

cyngs

p.s. Feel free to break my rules (and my bed) but promise not to break my <3s.
p.s.s. I noticed the BB card came from your own deck. Haven't you found mine yet? You do know what a deck looks like? Don't look at me: I'm just a tweet wittow biwd in a diwded cage.
p.s.s.t. As for: You've got a nice pair of hearts though -- I'd say thank you from the bottom of my <3 but I don't have a camera handy and I don't think your pulse could handle it (and perhaps I have SOME shame after all (perhaps?))



he didn't answer this one, so I sent another:

I fear I have left you with a bad impression. Perhaps you can sympathize with what it's like to have a bad rep.

I don't mean to play the t<3t (i'm practically a born again virgin-- the friar would be so pleased) but that is just the hand that was dealt to me (I only have the two hands as it is)

btw, should I have hadmore by now? perhaps I'm not that clever after all...or will you be dealing out more hands yet?

My charming flower,

I can sympathise with what it is like to have a bad rep, and I know also what it is like to work for one just to have it spoiled. Life is hard, what can I say.

It is my ever so sincere hope that you haven't felt neglected as of late; as it happens I have been frightfully busy what with absolutely everything.

I appreciate our communications very much! They are vastly entertaining and different from the usual mill.

I don't know! Things are getting a mite hectic around here. I doubt it though. Far as I can tell you are still very clever.

Ah, I rejoice in your kind words, sir. They mean much to me.

As for feeling neglected, I was beginning to get downright pouty (it is my temperment to wilt easily from neglect). I had crafted a very curt, yet amusing, note to you, which I guess I will tear up now (or save for later--how i hate to waste witty words). Very Happy

I can only summise what "absolutely everything" is. Your position must be extraordinary delicate. Many have their theories, but I feel you have been somehow misjudged.

Your faithful,

Madam, as long as there is dullards, wit as sharp as yours is never wasted. Why no, pride yourself on your ability to keep entertained in the face of utter dullitude. Etc. If not then at least rest assured that I read it.

How so?

Dearest Rogue,

I've heard a ridiculous rumour that you are a mere boy. I dare not believe it. For one, I'm certain that the Azure Wolf is (as usual) barking up the wrong tree (as well barking mad). He underestimates your worth. I do not make that mistake.

And although I have no qualms in being called the "cougar" (RAWR), I would hate to have "corrupting a minor" and "distributing pornography" added to my growing list of crimes. I'm in enough hot water as it is.

Boys certainly have their charm but to satiate my appetite, well... 3QFu8SD4sqE

Be "straight" with me, J-Boy (hopefully J-Man) -- 2/2\6| 4/ 4|2\7/ 2/4|3|3|0/3|2|8|7|4\3|7|?

cynged,

Kittens


ETA: He responded this morning:

Kitton,

I'm twelve years old and with is this.

You are welcome to form your own theories, of course. I know yours mister Wolf seem to have spec'd in something other than savoir faire: internets, and that's okay. He's also very generous


ETA: I was going to post my latest correspondence as soon as he responded, and apologize for being mean to Azure Wolf...it's not me, it's totally the character, Deucey, that I'm playing. However, now I won't bother to apologize ;D

[META] What happened with this game? It started fantastic - with a high quality videos, perfect web sites, ....
And now since some time "only" emails with two players. Is there anything other people could do (I personally do not like reading those emails or blog logs Sad) or have I missed something.
I fear that soon their player base will consist of AzzureWolf and cyng.

please don't give up hope yet

I have a feeling, that the PM's had to get their bearings again, as the rabbit hole did not attract as many players as they expected. We've had several in-game hints that things would be a little quiet for a bit before this thing blows its top open.

Hello! I'm trying to get into ARGs (which is why I signed up here), and am currently attempting to get my bearings in this game. Looks fantastic from what I've seen. I hope it isn't too far along for me to find out what's going on and join the fun.
Don't mind me for now, I'm still utterly confused. Wink

[06:58] <M> hhhmmmm?
[07:00] <cyngs> the G+3=J
[07:00] <cyngs> it's another code to decrypt
[07:01] <cyngs> look...we've already had 2 codes that were 5 digits long
[07:01] <cyngs> just look at it G*3*J
[07:01] <cyngs> it even looks like one of the codes
[07:01] <cyngs> we just have to figure out what the other two digits are
[07:02] <cyngs> gawd, i can't believe we've been so blind
[07:03] <cyngs> and I can't believe noone is around to help me figure it out
[07:04] <cyngs> okay so the plus sign was originally a P
[07:04] <cyngs> so GP3*J
[07:05] * M[a]gesteff confusedly asks "How do you figure it is a P and not some other letter?
[07:06] <cyngs> it could be another letter
[07:06] <cyngs> but I looked up the plus sign on wikipediea and says before the + sign the P was used
[07:06] <cyngs> so it could be a p, it might not be
[07:06] <cyngs> but it's better than nothing
[07:06] <cyngs> we wont know until we enter the code
[07:07] <cyngs> and we can't brute force it because we only have 5 tries a day and i've already used up several
[07:09] <M> Also: J a negative number is denoted by an underscor
[07:09] <M> under the computing section
[07:11] <M> WHich could also designate a code
[07:13] <M> I also have to wait until later to try
[07:14] <M> so maybe GP3MJ? If the _ is really a minus sign?
[07:16] <cyngs> didn't work
[07:17] <M> Ah well can't say it wasn't tried
[07:17] <cyngs> okay....here is what i tried for anyone who comes in later because I have to go in 15 minutes and wont be around to tell them
[07:17] <M> ok
[07:20] <cyngs> G838J, GA3EJ, GP3AEJ, GP3EJ, GP3MJ, GP3OEJ, GP3OJ, GP3ZJ

Received 3 emails from Jack today. I posted the other two as ETA's in a post above.

Here is the third:

First my response to him, for throwing Shizzire and me under the bus; This one contained a picture, which I am NOT sharing Razz :

Bray, don't play the JackAce with me, sir. Couldn't you have guessed that I would literally shoot the moon over this tomfoolery...

Love, what did I do to deserve to be thrown to the dogs?? After all I have done to earn their trust, one casual word from you and it's sawn ass-under. Just remember the games you play with others, clouding the fields with your "smoke", can cast it's gloomy haze over innocent bystanders (namely: moi).

Shouldn't you know better than to play with hearts?

(or trifle with red-heads?)

Shameless as ever,

Red

p.i.s.s.e.d. and YES, that was my ace to you, SIR! You can KISS it!


his response:


Quote:
Never trust your ♥ to a mind looking for a ♦
You'll end up with a ♠! to dig your own grave with
Join the ♣, etc.

Madam,

I realise you charming individuals all, shall we say, breathe together, and I realise anything I say is in an of itself suspect, but. I confess I didn't realise to what extent.

Anyway, gloomy haze? I am sorry. I will (somehow) do a better job of keeping quiet in the future.


so if you don't hear from Jack, i guess you know who to blame Sad
