Responses From Melissa or SP re: Emailed Analog Pics

[daboking]

great idea for a thread... I am a bit surprised, though, that it is seems no one has gotten a response. I am sure we will see something on friday. Even though I am no doctor, I guess I will need more patience.

I would think it would take a bit longer to evaluate these pictures. It's a lot harder to go through things in our current time and their 2552 counterpart then it is to just look at a crew picture and decide if it's been done correctly.

NEW MESSAGE FROM MELISSA

[thunderclap8]

well so much for being discreet...

[atdt1991]

This is discreet. I do not intend to hide a major plot point from players, out-of-game. We all need to work together.

[thunderclap8]

i'm just thinking going against melissa's wishes may not be the best idea. but its your call.

[C_Brennan]

If this is discreet, then I hate to see what your obvious is. The lady said discreet, not wide open let's tell everyone.

[atdt1991]

"Please share this information with crew members you know to be loyal:"

Are you saying I shouldn't trust you? Because here I thought I could trust you.

I am entirely certain that I am not the only person who she sent this email to. In fact, I would hazard to say that the scores of people who sent in graphics all have received something to this effect, more or less.

[thunderclap8]

i received it also, i assumed it was the 'special intel' melissa spoke of in reference to the contest 'winners' on recipe6.html. I'm assuming not every submission received it. Its my understanding that 'secret' stuff like this has been part of the game before, I dunno I just think its a little pre-emptive to go spreading it this much. It might go out eventually, but Melissa wants specially loyal help first. Not everyone here supports her more than SP.

edit: I'm with del in the next post, this is a crucial threat, and i think we'll all be picking sides soon.

[C_Brennan]

If Princess is also a threat and she has been corrupted by Flea, she must be stopped immediately. And we got plenty of princess loyals here.

You and I are running on the same page, however, and I'm truly thinking what you're thinking. If we could sort this all out, we can probably use it very effectively.

[atdt1991]

So is your suggestion that I keep it to myself? Or that I just tell the boys I play with, so I've seen them in person? Do you have a specific determination for who is "trustworthy" and who is not?

[meta]Although I have widely disagreed with Weephun's comments on an in-game context, I have -never- disagreed with him out-of-game... even if he seems to have taken it a bit personally. He chose to share his communications with us, whether we agreed with him or not. I'm doing the same.[/meta]

[thunderclap8]

i would suggest you only tell those loyal to melissa. Those loyal to the SP will probably receive some equivalent communication soon. The game is making us choose sides I think.

[atdt1991]

That's a fascinating idea, thunderclap8. I still see it as a mystery where we have to determine the truth, and not something where we need to choose sides as such. Essentially, we started on this mystery to determine what was happening to the website. Once we discovered that, we were determining who Melissa was, and where she came from. Now, our goal is to save humanity, if possible. That's how i see it, anyway. Lots of different people have opinions on how this can be done, but I believe in the next two weeks we'll discover who is what.

As far as what I said to Melissa, I wasn't come from an angle, I was only being straightforward with my thoughts.

[C_Brennan]

Yeah, they're putting us up to side choosing. The question is, as it has always been, who do we listen to?

I'm still a crewmember, and that means I'm with Melissa hands down. Especially after reading that message.
