But not publicly to either case. Preemptive disaster control before it comes out.


Well, Henry referred to

in his Internal Investigations memo to VIP's announcing the hiatus. I guess this is semi-public?

do they know (the characters) that we know ( the vips) about these emails and videos yet? (the ones from the locked boxes)

because im assuming those boxes got hacked.

*AS FAR AS IM AWARE this wasnt a leaks effort. ( the box contents being so juicy and being hacked) leakers re distributed it, after being told about it , but they didnt mess with the box contents. fact.

The VIPs - new that evening and pre-existing online prior to the event - present at the Launch on Thurs. July 12 saw copies of the emails, so knowledge of them was spread via the live streaming and our communication with each other since then. The characters should be aware of that.

It appears to be an inside job - somebody on the ByoLogycs staff hacked the boxes. I'm wondering what was supposed to be in them (and thus removed/switched?), since this was an "official" Challenge for the VIPs online and onsite to collaborate for free ByoRenew subscriptions as a reward!

No, the white thing folded on top was just the instructions in a clear plastic that was attached to the boxes upon being found. the smaller envelope is what the keys were in. We never knew the original contents of the boxes as far as I know.

Please be aware the interruption experienced during the VIP Launch Party has been handled, and we have ruled out any outstanding issues.

@ByoLogyc Can you tell us the original contents of the VIP Challenge boxes before they were hacked? #curiousVIPs
Hoping we might find out! Smile

I received my packet. I found inside the two primer pills were there but empty.

Black Light resulted in negative results.

Dahlia sent me an e-mail with this song attached.

meta: the pills will always be empty - technically speaking, they'd probably get into lots of trouble if they actually had us ingesting some non-approved compound aside from the pill casing Razz

did anyone every mention what the original content of the box was ment to be rich? i noticed your tweet asking byologic. But iwasnt sure if they replyed and i missed it.

At present the insider could really be anyone, ive not heard many of the characters refer to the hacked boxes, except perhaps bernice when she made the tweet about slanderous remarks going through her lawyer.... i thought it was a big enough thing for there to have been more mention of it....

VERY EXCITED FOR THE RETURN HOWEVER!

I asked Dahlia what I should do about my swab and I got a surprising reply from her that I just Love.
