Makes it sound like she's learning to speak in proper English... Is that good or bad?

EDIT: I also tried grenAID.ca, just to be safe. Non-existent.

I was looking at the email. Maybe the t_30 points to the 30th? Could be wrong, but they may have been pointing out when the game starts.

Edit: It also seems my email made them post something else:

I also emailed Tsilon back on the 22nd and got a slightly different reply than what cherrytree got.

http://www.grenaid.ca is now up, it is a comments board, I'm guessing a way to interact with the "AI"

Well, I guess I was right about the grenAID.ca thing...
Also, who else has noticed this thing with colors on these websites:
Bleu Wizard
Redo Support
Yelodyne
GrenAID
?
I don't see why it would be important, but you never know.

I guess this latest development means that we're now supposed to communicate something else to the AI through this new site. The question is: What?

EDIT: Just to see if it might get us a hint when Tsilon gets back to answer everyone, I posted:

Tsilon apparently logged on at some point yesterday. No indicator of when. She is no longer online.

She seems to have, vaguely at least, answered everyone's questions. Well, everyone's except mine. Nothing really helpful at this point, but her "answer" to my question was at least interesting:
Quote:
duke9509: ERROR // ('purpose_statement') UNCOMPILED!

This AI will retrieve purpose entry during next compile routine. !PRIORITY REQUEST

An AI that doesn't even know its own purpose... this is strange... this is all starting to look more like an ARG than just a simple viral campaign as I first thought.

Oh, and, to whomever asked if grenAID was the "g area," I just thought I'd let you know (in case you didn't) that != in
Quote:
grenAID • AI Interface Utility != g.area
is a way of writing "not equals to" in computer code.

That was me who asked. I actually figured out that it probably wasn't since the 'RGBY gate' probably means the different site colours, and perhaps they somehow lead to this g.area(game area?).

Ok, perhaps then you could follow up with something like "What/where is this g. area? How does one get there?" Might get us somewhere. I'm grasping at straws figuring out what to do here.

Well, a key is usually used to unlock something or at least corresponds to something, right? My current speculation is that the keys are used to open the 'RGBY gate' that leads to the g.area. I guess all we can really do now though is wait for Tsilon to get back to us. At least we'll know what her purpose is!

Ah ha! There's a link to a login/signup page in the source!
http://grenaid.ca/entry/signin?Target=discussion%2F1%2Ftsilonai.lang-complete-test_phase

I think this is simply because they used Vanilla Forums to make the site, and it didn't have a way to get rid of the login page. So they just hid the link. You can also get to what would normally be the thread listing at http://grenaid.ca/discussions I'm a little conflicted about using the sign-in at this point. They probably hid it for a reason.

Also, you can click on Tsilon's name to get to a "profile" page that says:

which might just be the default "there's nothing here" filler text.

New tweet/facebook:
Quote:
Compile schedule partially de-crypted. Next downtown - 6pm PST..

One, I'm pretty sure that's a PM typo and is supposed to be "downtime."
Two, I guess that means that we're going to get some responses from Tsilon again.

Well, 6PM PST came and went, and I didn't see any change with grenAID.
It didn't give an end time, so, I guess we wait.
