Johnny Exploits is OOG; he's also playing the VS ARG that I'm involved in.

On another side note, if there happens to be another live drop around Dallas/Denton TX area, I could probably make it out. Just sayin' Razz

I wouldn't put it past Theresa (if that really is her,) to be feeding us misinformation, but at this point, it seems like just about everything that she's said to any of us has been speculation. I don't think that she's given us any hard facts that we haven't backed up with other evidence.

Agreed. More like helping us (or me, anyways) to connect the dots.

Maybe an attempt to get more of us to interact with the characters?

this is what i got

Quote:
a few of us got these ripped up parts of blue prints. does any of this look familiar. look at load bearing walls and structures, does any of that look familiar to a part of the building you work in? maybe an off site area even. or if not a basement perhaps an 'attic'? we also got a list of access codes. what kind of door security do you have? badge entry, pin, fingerprint matrix?


Theresa to me
show details 10:03 PM (23 minutes ago)
I'm no architect. I mean, at first, I thought it did look familiar, some of the shapes of the rooms. But it certainly looks bigger than the rest of the building. If I had to guess, I'm assuming this is actually in my building. There's two sublevels in this building, so if there was a secret level, it would be the third. Doesn;t seem like a coincidence to me.

All of our keypads use a pin number.

I just had the joy of trying to convince Brandon that there actually was a Subbasement 3
ETA: Transcript
Quote:
[Brandon Mass]Just wanted to make sure everyone is still safe and accounted for.
Please let me know.
[You]
I'm still here
Did anything come up?
I know about the Theresa thing
[Brandon Mass]
No, not that I know of.
Theresa?
Volunteer lady?
[You]
Markovich. She emailed us
Yes
[Brandon Mass]
Okay. I didn't hear about this yet.
[You]
Sasha and a few others know more than I do.
[Brandon Mass]
Sorry, I've only met her a couple times.
[You]
I just got her first email. They responded before I did
You know about the IRIS packets too, right?
[Brandon Mass]
uhhh
I've heard about IRIS
not about packages
[You]
Some of us got a package from IRIS with some documents in it
[Brandon Mass]
shit...this is the same IRIS that had watermarks on those desk pictures?
[You]
Yes.
They were Veil security codes, including subbasement 3
[Brandon Mass]
Wait...
3?
[You]
Yes "There is no subbasement 3"
Theresa said the same thing
[Brandon Mass]
Correct
Well, she's right
[You]
We have blueprints
also from the package
[Brandon Mass]
Dude...trust me. I've been in that elevator a thousand times.
[You]
There's no button, right
[Brandon Mass]
Right...
What the hell
Are you screwing with me right now?
Seriously
[You]
No.
[Brandon Mass]
Cory is missing this is seriously not the time
[You]
This is why
This is why he's missing
[Brandon Mass]
Why?
What?
Why is he missing
[You]
Veil's 3rd subbasement
Project-77
Alec Veil's wife and daughter
[Brandon Mass]
I don't get what you're saying. You're telling me there's a secret level underneath our building?
[You]
Yes
[Brandon Mass]
And Cory is there?
[You]
Maybe
[Brandon Mass]
What makes you think that?
[You]
IRIS or DS3 might have him
He disappeared at work
[Brandon Mass]
I know that
I'm his best friend
[You]
We received a transcription of a journal that was left on his desk shortly before he put his name into the packet
The reason why he did that
[Brandon Mass]
I heard about that
[You]
The journal was from a test subject. I haven't read it, but from the blueprints we were given, and the descriptions, It's safe to say they take place on sb3
[Brandon Mass]
wow...okay
So wait....what's theresa have to do with this
[You]
She emailed a bunch of us today, telling us that it was all her fault
That is, Cory's disappearance
since she reported him to Miller
[Brandon Mass]
Well, I mean Cory is my best friend, but he was the one that hid his name...
But I guess I would feel guilty if I was her too
I'll be back soon.
[You]
Okay

Can someone prepare a .zip with everything for sending to NPCs or new players? I'm missing stuff like the journal so I can't do it.

Ok, so here's what I got..

Theresa wrote:

Sorry. I was on my way home from work.

I don't know if this is going to work. I can't go up during work. It's too easy to be seen. Too many people, too many cameras. And if that's how Cory went missing, I'm no good to help if I'm missing like him.

Sorry to get your hopes up, but I don't think I can get to any of those offices.

Now I'm starting to think finding a way down there is the best option. I just don't know. I'll need a few days to figure out how to get in there, unless you have any better ideas. Ideas to help me get down there work also. I don't know of any way down there, based on what I know now.

What do you think about the off-site data center? That's another option. Won't be crawling with Veil employees. I'd need to get in, but it would certainly be easier than the other two options. I might need your help coming up with a plan. I also need to find out where it is. Who works there. I can think of a million ways this could go wrong, but if I get some information, I could probably get in there long enough to find something about Eve.


Those were 3 separate emails that she basically sent back-to-back to me, but I'd gotten off the computer for the night. She's starting to confuse me heavily - she's changed the focus like 3 times.

I'm going to write her back about the off-site here in a moment, but if anyone can think of something else for me to say, let me know, cause I'm in a daze after reading that.


Also, to whomever asked: there is a compiled ZIP folder I sent to Theresa containing everything we've found so far. As for the packet that Cory found, which Leslie found, then sent to me, I'm working on getting copies made. I get paid Friday.. yes, I am broke, hence why I haven't fulfilled my promise yet. Scanning them, I can do today, because I'm off work. So expect a 72-page scan folder sometime today.

I got the initial letter from Teresa too, but haven't responded yet. Was gone until this morning. I've read everything everyone had written with T. so was wondering if I should follow a new or different path, or carry on. What do you all think?

Also, about the off site security center -- do you think it's possible that cameras and things are controlled from there? Like maybe if someone could hack/or get in we could view the levels (SB3) from a security camera?

Just a thought.

I want to respond to T. but don't want to just repeat the same things -- any ideas?

Also, if there is any drop in NWC FL, I could pick it up. Just putting that out there since FL and TX were mentioned.

Korinthian - If you wouldn't mind posting a link for the packet again, I could use it. I seem to be not included as a mail recipient. I never got the original recruitment package, nor any other mailing. I get all the emails tho.

This is only semi-on-topic, but I had to send Joseph Silva a copy of my "Article" that I used as a means of breaking the ice with him and talking to him. Which was a neat trick, since I didn't intend to actually write any articles... at first.

He's still being closed-mouthed about what's going on, and specifically, his last missive to me read:

Quote:
J Silva to me

show details 10:43 PM (15 hours ago)

I did. I'm not happy that my possesions have been taken from me. I'm not happy that my office was broken into.


Which I guess means that by playing it straight with him I've been failing epically. I think I screwed up, guys. ><!

Regardless, I'm a man of my word, so I put together a basic article and sent it out to him. Who knows? Maybe it'll get me back into his good graces. Maybe it won't. At the very least, I didn't break my promise... to a fictional entity... that we need information out of...

Ok, maybe I've gone mad. Or something.

Anyways, it's not really any new information, but if anyone's interested, here's the article I wrote for him:
Joseph Silva CBALtech.doc
 Description   Containing the interview I had with Dr. Silva WAAY back when. Maybe useful for a recap on his character?

Here is a question for you: where is the surgery for the chip insertion supposed to happen? Looking the access code sheets, there is a scrub room listed on SL3, but not the others? I emailed TM about where this would be taking place, but did not mention SL3. Am awaiting response.

Veil nanoscience- reply to e-mail that I received
File sent via e-mail from veil website

I used one of the contact e-mails and they replied with this file. I notice that it is posted on other forums but not in this one. Hope it helps. By the way, I am a newbie to all of this (i.e., using this kind of forum, ARG etc.).

Eve Randall Missing
Response to an e-mail I send to Veil Nano

Hi guys. I'm a newbie, but I believe this is not a double posting. I e-mailed one of the links in contacts and received photocopied note ('memorandum') that has previously been posted. Then I did a google search for the e-mail address and it led me to this:http://findeverandall.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Hope it helps.

@ Rob: Total Compilation

After giving Theresa the few physical descriptions of Cassandra's testing facility that I gathered from the packet, here's what I got back.

Theresa wrote:

Not that I'm aware of.

That actually sounds quite similar to what I've heard about the facility in Florida. It looks abandoned. It might even be now. I don't know.

The off-site facility that I'm thinking of isn't a Veil facility. It's basically a data center. It houses our servers and research. Also our security footage. And trust me, there's a lot of it.

The issues:

I don't know where it is. Once I find out where it is, I won't be allowed in. If I get in, I'll need to know exactly what to look for.


Just a data center.. If it's not a Veil facility, then who's is it? Government's? CIA's? IRIS's?

Houses the security footage.. that could be interesting. Need to find out where exactly it is, too..

EDIT: OK I TOTALLY MISINTERPRETED THERESA.

She wasn't looking for another Veil site in Florida or wherever. She's hinting at trying to get into the facility where Veil keeps its data servers, and all its security. A lot of security, as she said - security footage easily dating back to the Ward 5 testing.

What she's asking is where to find it, how to get in, and what to look for. Have we been given hints or anything of another Veil facility that might do all the data handling?

i tend to concur. I was talking to her about the data storage and she specifically mentioned it houses their research. Its in San Francisco but she doesnt know where. Maybe at the presidio institute? maybe connected to the security breach there?
