it's been said before but THIS SITE IS OOG.
I think we have just a few teensy more important things to be working on than communication methods which are non-inclusive.

Mokey I agree - we definitely did something 'wrong' (although actually I have the feeling we were SUPPOSED to do something 'wrong') but not on this board. It simply wouldn't be a game if that were the case. It's only direct communication with the game that counts.

Sorry for rant love you all really xx

No offense taken! Your post said exactly what I'd been thinking, only in much better wording. Very Happy Let's move on with the puzzles of Perplex City without worrying about our posts. Cool

 		I apoligize for my lack of knowledge in forum/ARGs( being this is my first of both) but isn't this to a prewritten an extent? The "us versus the PMs" mentality doesn't sound very fun and if a mole is part of the story there is really nothing to do about it because they can just join the forum. This game seems so well thought out that I'm sure that most problems will have been run through.

 		Smile I still don't think the update means they are reading these threads as In-Game information. Instead, I believe the update is a heads up to us that we'll need to know code words, wear specific clothing, etc., to show we're part of their group. It reminds me of I Love Bees, when we had to prove to the Operator we were part of her crew.

they are *not* spying on us here or in the IRC channel. ok we know mind candy as game designers probably read them and react to them both, but mind candy as in game characters, along with all the other characters in the game, should never acknowledge that, or openly act on it without there being some other way they could have got the info, of which there are plenty.
as the quote shows, they have not detected our presence by eavesdropping in the IRC or reading the forums, they have analysed the type and volume of traffic their website trails have been receiving. presumably they expected much lower bandwidth bills ;) maybe they even saw us at either imperial college or in manchester, and the receda-chat IRC channel during the text game was surely not secure, BUT THIS PLACE IS so stop worrying!
seriously, do you really think if we did try and hide or code our posts, or secure our communications, that they wouldnt be able to hack them if they wanted to anyway?
rach =)

I Agree with you on that point so much i will also throw this bit we got from Kurt during our talks with sylvia/monica:

Quote:
...In even simpler words, there seems to be a higher amount of chatter going on between Earth and Perplex City, and it can't be accounted for by normal Academy traffic. I know what you're going to ask me - Can you work out what it is? The answer is no. It would be impossible for me to work out the 'extra stuff' that is being said just from the raw stream, for a whole bunch of different reasons. That's not something worht worrying about. What you should be concerned about is the fact that someone in Perplex City is doing a lot of talking to people in Earth, and none of those people have anything to do with the Academy.

 		And I hope you won't think me presumptuous if, at this point, I lock the thread. One more time:

Unfiction is OOG.

:Locky!:
