from the conversation transcription, it seems that the awakened "F" will be used as decoy, maybe puting him on reflection mode can help??


Looks like you were right. I just got this.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Enough with the games. If you and your colleagues ever want to speak to "F" again, then set him into reflection mode. How to do that is another matter.


Here we go.

If you go to the site now http://www.dfgsecurity.x10.mx it will quickly redirect to a new page titled "Failure" with a message that says UU will not succeed... Cooperate! You have to get the password in fast as hell. I went ahead and set F to reflection mode. You get a message with the letters "xFZ777iEP" that you have to email to F.

 		Okay, hi, wow.

So what is going on? I've just got back from work and suddenly things are going crazy and the PM's showed up but the game's not over..?

Putting him on reflection mode, from what I remember of that five-hour session last night, only serves to allow his controllers to get ahold of whatever it is we are saying during that period, and they may or may not have control over whatever it is being said back to us.

 		When I asked him why he randomly repeats and capitalises letters he said that it's because the silenced him, and when I said how can he talk he said perseverance is the key...?
And he also said that his emails aren't being monitored, but that mine are

Aah I am sufficiently creeped. What is it I'm supposed to know?

Edit: PM's one post here said that
Quote:
Also, only one player knows about F's current state (thankyou for providing a name for him, by the way )


Uh. Apart from an email I have stating that F 3927 was wiped, and that he is the test case.. I don't know much else and all my emails have been posted on the thread for clarity.. and I don't know that I gave him a name..

Anyone's real name start with C? Perhaps that's a help?

The caps in the sentence are Z H E U S E T R O U H E G U I E H E O O W R M E G I N C

Time to go play with some anagram makers and see if that does anything.

EDIT: Yeah, not getting anything but nonsense.

Maybe changing my vocabulary will help a little.
Tell Ceribri that she already knows what she is "supposed to know".

WHere can she be fOund?


And I got this:

Oh, I do hope you're not mocking me. And she can be found, if you look
hard enough. You are already acquainted with her, after all.


HA! Nice. So I'm acquainted with this person, apparently...

 		Ahaha oh crap, way to put me on the spot, F.
So in the words of Topher Brink, I know what I know. Lovely.

Anybody wants to shoot me questions, go for it.

What I apparently know had to have taken place between the start of this game and that last reply I had before the PM showed up, I was asleep/working while you guys were emailing F/DFG.

 		Whaaaat. Spooky. xD

I sent them the reflection code and got this:
Quote:
Target reflection already initiated.
yoU kNOw thE sEECReT


If it means that I caught on to the whole
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
robot test-subject thing...
, that was fairly obvious and doesn't seem secret anymore.

I'm looking at the wrong time? So it's something that happened after I went to bed? It's confusing.. I don't know whether the PM is reading our responses here and reflecting the answers to refer to our questions/theories in this, or what...

The only other reference to 'time' that I've been given that I'm aware of is this, which seems to also refer to our own goal, even?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Jonathan was the leader of a riot that 3927 and many others also
participated in (see: Jan09Riot) hence why he was terminated, and
3927's memory was wiped. 3927 is the test case, if we cannot fix the
freedom issue, the whole model range will be terminated and scrapped


EDIT: Any documents referring to Jan09Riot?

EDIT2:
New email.
Quote:
Sorry for confusIng you. Good job at using the anagram, trying to look
at the puzzle with an X-ray, but sadly : For you, that's just not
enough to solve thIs mystery! i wish i could stop, and let the robots
liVE like you want, but sadly For you, I can't do that. let them liVE?
what a stupid suggestion.
And I'd give up looking for hidden messages, numbers, or even
something so stupid as TIMEs in these emails. You won't find it.

I can't help but notice the capitalizations.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
FIVE FIVE TIME.

No way it's coincidence.

 		Ok

I sent this:

Quote:
No. I'm not mocking you at all. I just don't know anyone associated with this game other than a certain person on a certain forum...


And I got this:

Quote:
And this certain person from the certain forum, just like you, also
enjoys meddling in matters that does not concern them! So I will
continue to lead them astray, down many a path.


So DFG is talking to us. The reflection definitely records OUR emails and we are being led astray down "many a path".

I went back and looked at previous posts and I came to the same conclusion as you, Ceribri. It has to do with the riots.

as pleased as i was when i Saw that you had discovered the hidden
words, It made my heart sink when i noticed you had only found 3/4,
and you missed a symbol! you missed out the first word - how
unfortunate! after i spent so long telling you the story about the
X-ray, and including the colon ( : ) you didn't take it all in. ah
well, have fun trying to solve the puzzle.


Uh.. SIX.

Going back to the previous email, if I include every single capital letter and the colon, I get this

SIGX : FIVE FIVE AI TIME
The AI is from proper capitalization but AI also means Artificial Intelligence so I won't rule it out based on that. The G is also from proper capitalization (the first word of a sentence), and combining that with the second clue telling me I only got 3/4ths of the words..

My final guess is SIX : FIVE FIVE TIME.

EDIT: Yeah, no clue what that means yet.
*headdesk*
It means 6:55, being a time. Now THAT is confusing.
What timezone is F on?

 		Yep, it's 6:55.

It's also a bunny trail, misleading us and making me get fairly frustrated (in good fun).

Quote:
Congratulations! You solved that quicker than I thought! Now to put it
into practice and discover the secret! Oh wait, you can't. I lied.
What could 6:55 TIME have to do with anything? Better luck next time!
I might even give you something with a real result.


EDIT: I just got this.
Quote:
Me: Is something supposed to happen before seven PM?
DFG: No, something has already happened at 6:55.


Again with the timezones.. I'm EST and it's 9:40 here, but I don't have any real frame of reference for what 6:55 I'm looking for.

Quote:
This is fun for me! I just wish that I had actually linked something
to 06:55, and then told you it was a "red herring", so you would leave
the case, miss the evidence and quit meddling! But sadly I didn't, I
would never do that.


Now I'm double-guessing myself. Laughing
If I thought 6:55 was in the notes on the website, I'd say it's a valid thought. However, for my timezone, neither this entire thread nor my email have any timestamp of 6:55 on them. So I'm beginning to believe that it's just a red herring, but it's all we have to go on right now.

 		And he is watching to board:

Quote:
Me: So, if I put F 3297 into reflection mode, which apparently allows you to gather info from target emails... what happens if I take him off of reflection mode?


Quote:
DFG: If you take him off of reflection mode? He becomes useless to me, and
I incinerate him.

Just kidding, I removed the feature from the terminal - you didn't
think I'd noticed the fun you were having, the power you thought you
had?

And I'm glad you found the joke so funny. Hopefully it takes your mind
off the fact that your friend is doomed.
