How would you prepare your fish to eat?

I hope my response is acceptable.


Oh. Yall think perhaps she's back?

LISA did say her Pomona question to me sounded "vaguely familiar" We'd talked about her escaping to Pomona in prev. chat. Below is my session. *le sigh for so little*

Ah ok, I don't know why I didn't remember the name, but we do know a bit about the Astraeus Project. The Assassinations sparked my memory. From the timeline:
Quote:
September 18, 2112
The United Nations, the organizing body of space programs around the world, announces the creation of the Astraeus Project. With global sea levels rising, pollution at dangerous levels, as well as overpopulation, the UN believes the time is now to take actions that will ensure the long-term survival of humanity. The Astraeus Project is an initiative to research and develop the ability to travel to planets both in and outside of our solar system.

Quote:
April 21, 2142
Feelings on expansion to other worlds are split between Earth citizens. Some believe that expansion is the only answer, and that it is our duty to ensure the long-term survival of our species. Others believe that any time or money spent on anything but ensuring the survival of the current generation is a waste. Both have their points, but the divide slows progress, and in some cases produces violent outbreaks. In 2142, an extremist anti-expansion group assassinates two senior Astraeus researchers.

Quote:
March 12, 2143
Continued violence slows the project to a halt. In 2143, the project is officially put on hold by the United Nations.


I'm unclear if the Pytheus Project came first or not though. Looks like it did, based on the info you got, which would mean it's from before we colonized other planets, not after.

Finally found some spare time to access LISA fully. Here's my FIRST round.
Quote:
-Data Upload: upload badge ID #09161226
-Memory Inquire: How long after Adam Everest's trial until execution?
-Memory Inquire: For the second intrusion records state there was no memory wipe. What information did LISA gain from the intruder?
-Other: I need to perform physical maintenance on LISA, confirm exact location of your mainframe inside the Horizon facility?
-Memory Inquires: Where can I get a physical copy if the Elevator docking schedules?

LISA wrote:
-Badge #ID Uploaded. 9/10
Please get confirmation 1/10 to complete upload.

Execution date not set for ADAM EVEREST. Trial not concluded. Average time from trial to execution: Nineteen days.

Diagnostic Report: No information recorded to memory core. Some systems corrupted, leading to slight personality routine defects.

Physical Location: Basement Level Seven.

Please contact superior for a request of physical documents.


And I squeezed in one last item at the end.
Quote:
Other: President Sparrow might shut you down if another intrusion happens. I don't want that to happen.

LISA wrote:
Diagnostics Mode: Personality cores unavailable. Information noted for future reference.

Nice work guys. So, for starting a second round, do you merely start firing off requests to LISA again? Also, are we limited to one request per email or have others bundled more together?

I'd like to know the answer to this. I was firing off individual emails like crazy during my 10 minutes.

I sent my five questions in one email, and got five replies in one response email approx 7 minutes later. Then I sent one last message hoping to get in before the 10min deadline.
I suggest sending as many questions as you can come up with in the initial email and let the PMs decide how many they can answer in 10min. Very Happy

Nice work indeed!

OK..so...what hasn't been asked that needs to be? 90percent of my questions I was going to ask tonight..have already been asked..

I'm literally at a loss as what I should ask. Ideas?

I put all of mine in one too, like they are in my post.

Yea, I've been wondering why there are instructions for how to perform physical maintenance in Wallaces folder. Y'think perhaps we should arrange for Allison to pay basement level 7 a visit once she's in?

My gut tells me not to use all of our chances just yet. Allison said we still need to plan some for the mission. Might be some Q's for LISA regarding that.
And Monday is the trial, maybe after that we will have to ask more Adam Q's regarding DOE.

This is true. We only get three times before the access code resets. I think ill save my other two.

I think being conservative is a risk too. We already know that Captain Jack President John Sparrow is ready to pull the plug on LISA.

Oh and we are 10/10 now.

1) Query for grounded ADVs and their maintenance reports.
1) Query for executions scheduled in the month of October upon pending conviction.
4) Random info dump (Parameters: First found file John Sparrow or Aegis 1 file – Access file and send contents)
2) Access log – Unauthorized extraplanetary connections past 4 weeks tracert
1) Security report from last assesment of Horizon Compound security vulnerabilities
1) Query profile on Tanner Wallace

Also, Nice! We're done!

Yeah, I did hear that that there were still 5 on ground today elsewhere, but that is okay.

I wonder what that bit is supposed to mean about Tanner Wallace. Is he going through some sort of PTSD or is he going mad dog?
