Nope that wasn't it. Access denied, message automatically discarded.

Edit: Oops. Tried it again with the correct spelling of wizard.


Hahah, I was going to ask about that. XD

Fingers crossed that you've got it right! Very Happy

 		Still no reply on the second email. I wonder how we will know that it worked. I sent another email simply asking lainsy if she was functioning correctly. No reply to that either. Fingers crossed....waiting....

 		Well, remember:
Quote:
It takes her about 24 hours to reboot
when triggered. However, rebooting her is risky as it will reset all systems,
and by ALL I do mean ALL. So then I can get out and find another way to
communicate with you.

So we may have to play the waiting game again.

 		No, it should tell you. LAINSY only discards the first email you send her. After that, you won't get a response period. So, our poem is a little off. I might have another look. I trashed my image files because they suck. I'm going to try and make new ones, and I'll upload them if I can.

Trying to keep this one every page:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
The rain falls from the sky
And the sun rises before noon
The girl who waits
No wizard shall save
Dorothy and her shoe
The Oz is such a clue

I keep seeing 'gave' as 'is' or 'as' when I look at it.

Hey, at least we're in - all it took was a bit of photoshoppery and a convincing enough message claiming that I was the holder of a masters' degree in Computational Linguistics from Cambridge...

Oh yeah, and apparently I work for FAILTECH now.


Wait a second. Attachments work now?

 		These messages are not supposed to be getting through to Genus. I think we need to restart LAINSY very soon. He needs to upload a better scan or something... no way anyone could read this better than us!

Edit--That's what I was referring to, zeighy. I get a strange vibe from Genus lately, but we have no choice but to help him at the moment.

 		readme on L3 has also been updated...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I think FAILTECH has now personally acted on this. I'm getting these weird codes
getting through my terminal. I'm blocking them out right now so that they can't
get in. Please reboot LAINSY soon, please! I need to get out! I don't want FAILTECH
to know what I know. I don't know if those ones outside are allies or not. So,
please restart LAINSY and all of the blast door will unlock giving me a path to
get out. Don't worry, I have my way out where FAILTECH can't find me. All I need is
just to get past this blast door.

Maybe he caused all of this? and Failtech is after him?

 		New email from Daniel Miller...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hello agent! Yes, you read that right, I am re-assigning you as one of
my personal agents. I'm still working your access codes so be patient on
that. Read the next sentences carefully as it will be your briefing.

I have reassigned you as my personal "out of the company" agent as no
one else in the company will know you work for me now (your previous
workplace has been "taken care of"). I have arrived a few moments ago
(based on the time and date of this message) at our troubled facility.
Be advised that the next batch information you will be reading will be
classified as top secret between you and me. If you feel you are not fit
for this job feel free to delete this message and read no further. If
decide to join me, you will then be following orders from me and nobody
else. Everything you do after this will have an impact. If you join or
not. This will be the last sentence you will be reading before any
confidential information will be disclosed, delete this message now and
decide not to join or read further and follow my instructions.


This sentence marks the beginning of confidential information that will
be disclosed to you as my personal agent.

I have arrived in our Antarctica Facility which unknown to majority of
"standard" FAILTECH employees and some in the administrative department.
Our Antarctica Facility houses all of the highly unstable and very
dangerous (and powerful) experiments to date. To oversee this, we have
placed LAINSY in-charge. All of the Board of Directors and the Founder
and Owner of FAILTECH Fred Don has unanimously voted to place her
in-charge. We never thought it was a mistake, and we still agree to that.

LAINSY has detected a compromise in the FAILTECH staff which can bring
down the company as a whole. That's why she triggered a Protocol 6 :
Security Lockdown. She did it as she saw it fit, and we agree. However,
one small mistake has lead to some major annoyances. You see, Protocol 6
has never been tested and the lockdown design has not yet been
completed. We didn't expect it can be triggered this early in the
process of developing High Level Company Protocols.

Right now, I stand outside our Antarctica Facility and our technicians
were able to tap into LAINSY's secure connections. We can monitor what
she does, however, we can't inject commands or communicate with her. All
entry to the facility has been sealed off by LAINSY so getting in is
still a problem. Our technicians also disabled all email through out the
company as I was on my way here, so it will be a very dark moment for
the company as the last line of communication is down. Luckily, I
transferred by email access to my personal network that is out of
company and LAINSY's control while on my way here so it is unaffected.

Right now I am still waiting for our technicians to be able to tap in to
the facility's internal communications to be able to contact people in
there. And right now, I want you to be on standby for any further
instructions from me. It is a priority that you be able to respond as
soon as you can. This situation is dire if left unchecked so be at
attention.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Daniel Miller
Board of Director, FAILTECH
