I'm back! with nothing, yet so far... and oh, what interesting development here...

If you ask me, I'm torn, again, as usual. I like to perter the thing and see what will happen if we do interfere and so forth. But I am also interested to see how he will pull off to get out... can't both just happen? hehe

I want to have a vote.

Have a thumbs up or down as your message icon.

Thumbs up means email Genus.
Thumbs down means do not.

Once we have our decision, we should have someone email him, although I'm not sure who will volunteer. I'm up for it, obviously.

While we ponder whether or not to email Genus...

3 ciphertexts left:

ITERATION (in WHISPHER/blue)
OREIN (in WHISPHER/blue)
emily (in proto)

Did anybody else notice that there was a mispelling here in NOTES/thewire...

I was talking to one of my team members about what sort of wire colors to
use for the whispher prototype. I said, it doesn't matter, as long as it
works. Although the wiring could make it easier, does it really make sense
to waste resources for that? Not to mention time? Rediculous, I say.

Rediculous should be Ridiculous. On purpose or not?

Ok. I've let the curious scientist part of me take over. I want to see how this will unfold. I wonder if the future Genus will start to disappear like Marty McFly. Although, we don't necessarily have to try to disrupt his plan I suppose. I guess we'll have to decide what to say to him.

I changed my vote to no based on Alex's email.

Well, as far as active players, I think I just counted 9 throughout episode 3. We might have to wait a while so enough of us have time to vote.

Well since everyone is saying yes i'm going to assume that's the loop that's been activated. (Yay to time paradoxes!)

Anyways i'm going to try to make a different move hopefully this may solve our problem. I asked LAINSY if she can solve the time paradox problem. She said she's allowed to, but if she get's stuck safety protocols activate. So I hope I don't break LAINSY with my question.

Dang it! I just knew that was gonna happen. She must be using up all her power to solve the paradox. Of course the answer could be nothing since the paradox can not be solved at the center of the problem. Thus an infinite amount of actions on an infinite amount of loops.

Edit: Site's online for me, but it seems the directory has been shut down I get redirected to the main page.

You just made her hiccup Cherry! Has anyone emailed Alex about hearing from Genus?

Response:
Quote:
LAINSY SAYS: QUERY FAILED

Sorry, I failed to process that query. The process performing the operation was terminated prematurely. I wasn't able to gather any data on the operation.


I emailed Alex about getting the email. I guess we could ask Alex to shut down the safety protocols and see if given more time she spits out an answer, but I doubt that will work.

Edit: Reply from Alex:
Quote:
Yes, I got an email from him, too. And as he says, if not contacting him will make his plan suceed, I'll just leave it that way. Anyways, LAINSY did had a minor problem a while ago, and so it was you? hah, don't worry, nothing really bad happened. Just a short minor lapse in services that resumed fast.

And I bet Alex wouldn't be too keen on shutting down the safety protocols considering Lainsy's recent aggression.

I think we should follow Orein's instructions and refrain from contacting him. If we're wrong we know what to do in loop #8.
