 		I'll try that Smile

Sent this to Noblesse

I received an email from an apatedolos. They said they are a 9, and chatted with me. Should I trust them? I assumed 9's weren't supposed to communicate with the 8's, or maybe it's the 8's that shouldn't communicate with the 9's


Got this back
Quote:
Communication is fine all around, just some things must stay specifically within your group. Thank you for your service. Should Apate and Dolos become a hassle, you can simply say "Stop that immediately." and they will leave you be.


If Apate and Dolos are one physical being, there must be some "multiple personality" stuff going on since they are referred to as "they"

 		Apate and Dolos has said on different occasions that it's struggling with itself for control; that it worries its doppelganger will take over, etc. So yea, something is going on there. Also, Aisa ignored my question of Apate's gender, so that might be a hint towards something.

And still nothing on the damn i's. Frustrating, lol.

I said:
Quote:
An 8 that's exciting!!! That's like a B right? Oh.. But what are the numbers for?


They replied:
Quote:
They just symbolize where you were born! You know how like, reincarnation makes it so you're born better or worse? It's kind of like that. A long time ago most people were basically born 6s or 7s. Since then we've generally gotten better.

 		I am so late to the game!! So I sent a reply Very Happy I am well aware that when I write properly I sound like an idiot.

Quote:
1. I have never been fired from a job.

2. I am English, although I was a member of the Air Training Corps for 5 years.

3. I have never left a job by mutual agreement following allegations of misconduct.

4. I have previously visited Australia, France, Germany, Spain, including within that header the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Portugal, Norway, New Zealand, Greece, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, Netherlands and Belgium.

5. I would say I have experienced synchronicity as dictated by Jung. Whilst my mind might see that the events were technically acausal, I did at the time feel that they were definitely linked, and I decided not to deny the apparent meaningful coincidence.

6. My sister is an employed member of the teaching staff of the Air Training Corps. My mother has worked through her company as a consultant with the government.

7. I have never engaged in acts or activities designed to overthrow any government by force, whether demonstrations or otherwise. I have not yet had cause to choose to do so.

8. I have never used a hallucinogenic drug.

9. I hold what is in England called "Pass Plus." I also have taken three cycling proficiency stages, and have the ability to control a glider, although I have never flown alone.

10. I have never been delinquent on any debts of had any debt placed for collection.

11. I have never been a member or associate of any group considered to be totalitarian, fascist, communist or subversive. I would not rule it out were the necessity to arise.

12. I consider myself a member of the Royal Society of Friends, or Quaker subsect of Christianity, however I am a great believer in the spiritual nature rather than organised religion.

13. No, I believe that previous experience would lead my relatives, friends and close associates to say that I am a private person who is hard working, empathetic, a good listener and who often works in charitable organisations. I believe they would also say that I keep secrets well, and am highly loyal to those I have chosen to be close to or confide in.

14. I have previously drunk, however I now have a "tea-total" partner and no longer take any joy in drinking, so have since ceased to drink alcohol other than at special occasions.

15. I understand, although I would prefer some form of closer information on the nature of these activities before committing myself fully.

16. <redacted>

17. I have never been declared bankrupt.

 		I'm still trying to find out exactly what the numbers mean, too. She hasn't given me much to go by, but I did just get this:

Aisa wrote:
I was born a 7. I'm an 8 now!
Apate and Dolos is troubled, like I said. And I am certainly not their partner.

So you can climb the ranks, so to speak? You don't have to stay a certain number? How do you do that? What kind of criteria or requirements are needed to go up the ladder?



No reply.. waited a good while, too.

 		So I tried to mail Aisa as well. I didn't really get anything interesting, though.

I wrote:
Great! Nice to meet you, Aisa. I hope I'm not being a bother.

Do you work for the Quobe Group? I'm rather interested in what work they usually do, since I've never heard of you before.
How often can we expect these "assignments?"
Also, the only advertising I've seen for this project was a post at a forum, but it quickly got deleted. Why so? Isn't there other, more effective ways? After all, you'll not get many replies if the word doesn't get out



Aisa wrote:
Yep, I work for Quobe! We do a lot of different things, trying to make the world a better place. Do you read PopSci at all?

Assignments will come in as you're all ready for them. I know some of you are, but the rest really aren't, and we are still waiting on a few people to join!

There are more affective ways, yes, but there are good people on those forums that we know would do well here. We watch a lot of image boards and other forums. The internet is especially rich with people like us.

Should you know of others who would be interested, or should you be willing to get the word out, I'm certain Quobe would be appreciative.


I wrote:
I haven't read PopSci specifically (We don't get that one in Europe!), but I've read other magazines about science. They're really fascinating. Have you appreaded in one of those? If so, I'd love to read the article.
What exactly shows if you are ready for the assignments? Also, what kind of assignments will they be? Will we need any other equipment than a computer, like a camera?
Ah yes, there are loads of interested people on forums on the internet. What kind of demographic were looking for with the questions, anyway?


No reply after that.
So some of us are ready for the assignment, but some aren't.

 		@korinthian The rain thing you mentioned is interesting. They told me to "Be patient, this is the calm before the storm."

 		@theAutomaton: That is peculiar, though I imagine they're just hinting that things are about to get heated.

 		They way I am taking the number ranking in is this:

Basically 7's and 8's have the most room for improvement. 9's are almost "perfect". I guess us lowbie numbers are gonna have to work extra hard Twisted Evil

 		Apate and Dolos said it wished it could be an 8 [or anything else, I think is what it meant] rather than being a 9 because we have it easier. Or something. So I'm expecting for you 9s to have a shitstorm headed your way (pun very much so intended with "calm before the storm", "after the rain falls").

 		I don't know if this has been discussed yet but Aisa and I talked numbers.
Apparently:
Quote:
Very few people are a 5 or 6. The majority are 7s or 8s. Some are 9s. Only 1 or 2 in this world are 10s. Anything below a 5 is more for animals than humans.


This means 1-4 animal, 5-9 human and I suppose 10 is more godlike.

Quote:
More people are being born 8s than 7s now, actually, which is really cool. But the natural course of things would make it so very few people move up, and some actually move down! But with more of us 8s around, we're starting to try and fix that.


I found this interesting. Apparently, they are going to be working with us to fix our number. Who knows.

 		That's what I got out of it, too, Hipster - as if they were trying to get us to climb the ranks. I asked her specifically if that was possible, and their intent, but I haven't gotten a reply yet - she went quiet on me.

Same. Since you are an 8 like me I imagine you asked more or less the same question I did.

 		Our dear friend Apate Dolos is replying to emails again.

Quote:

Quote:
Me: Hi. I'm actually not a 9 so I wonder why they gave you my email address? Must have been a mistake. But, anyway, I haven't had any experiences with paranormal activities

Quote:
Apate: No mistakes such are things only coincide. Maybe they were wrong? Or maybe right and you assume wrong the nature
of this message

must contact who/what I can as best as I am able

no expriance with the paranormal? Welll simply put you've either
totally closed yourself off or haven't yet remembered it

Quote:
Me: I'm not sure what the nature of this message is. You speak in riddles. I do remember seeing a ghost once, but I don't know if I dreamt it. Like I said in my application to Quobe, I sometimes get my dreams and real life confused.

Quote:
Apate: Good that's good, very good indeed!

and spirits love dreams so in either case you may have seen something

Quote:
Me: wasn't aware spirits love dreams. Makes sense. I don't even know how I'd begin to tell if I saw something

Quote:
Him: Time is long to you short to me as you can't see but should hope you
feel the diffrence in it

Learn patiance learn much and you may only go but to where?
