Wow, aquarius, I don't know how you find time for games with four little ones running around! I think that previous interactions with characters revealed that they're based in the UK, which meant that most of us stateside were interacting with them in the morning or at night. It looks like the Intueor system allows interaction via email as well as Facebook, so perhaps email will be a better option for you.

Also, I just got home from watching the maddening Red River Rivalry, and found another message from VS waiting for me:

Well, I went ahead and responded "Yes" to the chat and he eventually logged back on:

I also had a chat with VS version 3.1 last night. The chat went like this

The word doc is not gibberish but Welsh.
Tri Thlws ar Ddeg Ynys Prydain translates to the "Thirteen Treasures of Britian" aka Albion. It is a late medieval Welsh tale.

The items on the doc are the items on the list with their Welsh names listed first. There are a number of sites about them.

Here is the wiki link for background.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirteen_Treasures_of_the_Island_of_Britain

As a side note: Albion always reminds me of King Arthur mostly because of the MMoRPG Dark Age of Camelot which was based on that time and backstory and based in part in Albion.

One of the sites mentions some of the magical items being mentioned in King Arthur lore.

Edit: Circadian, by the way, in case like me you didn't know, means relating to biological variations or rhythms with a cycle of about 24 hours

I've never actually posted on UnFiction before, but the puppetmaster asked me to make this chat record public. So it has to be at least kind of important, right? I got the files sent on the Circadian I project, and he said he would send all files related to Intueor as soon as power allows. Nothing so far, though.

As soon as/if I get the files, I'll post the information for you guys.

- Q.

Just got another email from Vlad. Reads:

Nicely done, and welcome, Quintus! That's the first bit of information we've obtained on Intueor, as far as I know.

I believe that the last bit in the document referring to Agent Sirin is talking about Vlad. A quick search of FWHMeyers returned information on a prominent poet/philosopher, Frederic William Henry Myers. Although the last name was misspelled, I think it's probably a close enough match to warrant further investigation Smile

Myers had great influence on some prominent psychologists due to his writings on the unconscious mind. He was also the president of an organization, The Society for Psychical Research, which researches supposedly supernatural phenomena using a scientific approach.

I think that maybe the FWHMeyers Module may be a method of uploading or connecting a human consciousness to a computer system. Perhaps the Intueor system that we're interacting with has Vlad's consciousness acting in the background to interfere or send us a message or something. Maybe the references to HAL are an attempt to indicate that the computer system is more than meets the eye?

Definitely makes sense. Especially when you throw in the fact that two agents were terminated with The Machine. I think we have to assume some connection. Does that paragraph about The Machine make any sense to you? It's a lot of nonsense to me, and research hasn't helped.

The other thing that's leaving me a little confused is all the Alice references. The "virus code" from the email was a jumbled up Wonderland quote, and he kept spamming a Looking Glass quote all over his facebook wall when people asked him things.

I'm going to try to catch him on chat tomorrow or the next day to find out about Agent Sirin, the Machine, and the difference between the Mother and Father branches of the organization.

Just a little more backgound info I came across. The word doc mentions that the file is under Mairan43. Jean-Jacques d'Ortous de Mairan was an early 18th century geophysicist and a chronobiologist. He is the Father of the study of biological circadian rhythms.

In 1731, he also observed a nebulosity around a star near the Orion nebula. This was later designated M43 by Charles Messier.

Mairan also refers to a crater on the moon named in his honor. I'm sure coincidently its longitude is 43.4 degrees west.

Just posting to say that i have been lurking, but should come into full playing soon. HAHAHA. I don't have a Facebook Sad

, but I do have some theories that I can give. A little busy now, so I'll edit this later.

Can someone tell me what Vlad's e-mail is? And for whoever has the documents, can you upload them as attachments so that everyone can have a look?

Contacted by Vladimir again today, this time on Yahoo! Messenger.

Nice work QuintusSeptime. The code in your post is the principal Square root of 2. BTW no need to spoiler anything but 'solves'.
