No good with music, although I learnt piano when I was a kid, it's all gone now, so I'm relying on you guys..

EDIT: I'm hoping for sthg good this w/e after the lack of input from the IG characters, I'll be gutted if it's just cos the dude's had exams...

Cool I made a thread for the cods, y'know. I think it would be better to find what we're looking for if we put it there


PS: I'm pretty good with music (Being a slave to audio, and all) I play trumpet and guitar, and I took piano for a few years

Since we know that bad email Anissa got sent is only part of a message... and we've asked everyone in the free conversation forum if they've gotten anything....

Would it be worth it to have Christian either PM Immersion people or to put a post up in the staff forums, to the effect of, "Intraweb problems", asking if anyone is having problems with their email or whatever?

Thought we should come to a consensus on it before anything is done. Smile

Good idea. Since I sent a message to the Notice Board (boardSPLATrenata-isle.com) and got a response back from Justin (JustinSPLATrenata-isle.com), I emailed Justin to find out when the problems with the intraweb would be fixed (since that was the type of message, apparently, Anissa was receiving when she got the code).

Not sure how we should use the Christian account, especially since I'm not sure what Christian's status is at this point or whether or not the Immersion folks are aware of his status so would see that his account was hacked.... ??

We've had the Christian account PM both Ryan and Aimee without them thinking anything was amiss. As long as the messages we send out with it continue to appear to be from Christian (written with his point of view in mind), I don't think it'll be a problem.

It's just whether or not to PM Ryan and Aimee privately (and/or Dias and Rico) or to start a thread on the staff boards.

Sorry for the confusion guys, i'm Percy. I've been playing this game at school, and unforums is blocked. Evil or Very Mad I've been trying to get Anissa to confirm that she saw the man that we think is the composer so we can ask her more questions. you can AIM me at ndpudim when i'm home

Christian's account

Ryan still hasn't responded to my most recent message as Christian, in which I asked about the village and the satellites being down, but he still hasn't responded. Aunt Skye hasn't even read hers, so no one is logging in as her, she might be dead or something. Remember, the trouble with using the Christian account is that he's apparently missing now, right? Anissa hasn't heard from him for a while, and I think PMing Anissa from her dad's account would be a really big step (I'm not suggesting we do this now, but it is something to think about...maybe just with an "i'm okay, have you heard anything?" type of message). So yeah, posting as him might be something to think about. The PMs don't seem to be too into the "interact with us in interesting and unexpected ways and we'll reward you" since they got caught posting on unfiction, it seems that they're going more the code route (not so much my cup of tea), so I don't know if this will get anywhere. And having all the characters go "oh! the intraweb has been down!" is a real lousy excuse for huge drags in gameplay.

Is it me, or does the game respond to our input?

I mean - we have a couple of puzzles, but we're not making so much headway?

How do we get Nissa to talk about her secret diary?
Where the hell is Nuno?
Why hasn't anything been said about the speech that was delayed?

Shouldn't we be pushing for stuff too?

I haven't gotten any responses to my messages - to Trinity and Murco. I sent twice to Trinity. I also sent something to Rico and Dias complaining about the speech and some other things, just to see if I could get anything out of them.

The lack of response, from Trinity especially, is kind of frustrating, especially since Nissa, Curtis, and other IG characters have been on during that time. Has the whole Alimento opening just been halted?

I don't think Nissa is going to open up about her secret diary on the free conversation board.. maybe through messaging?

If we did message Anissa with Christian... might be able to ask Anissa about the secrets stuff that way. Lying to her dad about it might be different than lying to the random immersion people that asked her if she saw anyone.

Yeah, Karija, I was thinking the same thing, that Anissa might be more open with her father etc. But seriously, the complete lack or responsiveness is really bugging me. When is the windfall tournament, anyway? And the lack of ANY word about the speech after building it up so much suggests that the PMs didn't really have any idea as to what they were going to do with it. Haha, the most interesting that's happened so far was the missing brother episode, which apparently wasn't even in-game. He at least gave us some really genuine character interaction, and some codes and coordinates to boot. The message itself was fairly clear, if anyone remembers.
Quote:
imagens # zefr roxo

imagens is "images" in portuguese, i'm assuming the number sign should be switched to "no" which means "in the" in portuguese, zefr is probably zephyr, a wind, and roxo means "purple" in portuguese. so, "images in the purples wind," which I assume is a reference to the goings-on at the village.

and the other part of the message:
Quote:
FRANCIS – don't worry about Adelina, she's been taken care of. If you he from th Hs again, let us know.

I'm assuming "the Hs" are the Hawtons. Man, this is how bored I am with this game, that I am figuring this stuff out. I got mono, too, so I have nothing better to do. The coordinates were in Potugal, too, but I don't see what significance they had.

Another annoying thing is that I've tried multiple times to email the notice board on renata-isle.com to see if we can get something up there and maybe start communicating with people (like the people who wrote that little blue font). I sent in generic stuff like "Dias is hottt! -RHS boys" etc, but none of it has ever been posted, which is annoying considering they claim we can post to it. Does anyone else want to try this?

Well, since I can't get anywhere with the Composer code at this point, you bring up some interesting points, kenji. Too bad the missing brother stuff was OOG.

I sent a couple of messages to the notice board. No dice. I also emailed the person who replied to my messages to the notice board (Justin) and asked about the intraweb problems. No reply.

It seems to me that with the Windfall practice going on at the beach, all of the IG characters have apparently gone to watch. Maybe we'll get something new tomorrow (God, I hope so) after their supposed to be back (guess they don't have WiFi on the island).

As someone mentioned before, I hope there isn't one PM and he just had to take off for exams or something.

The thing that kills me is not being able to break the Composer code or the War and Peace code (since they look sooo similar). I mean, I know that the codes aren't supposed to be easy (cipher to binary to morse to Base64, or some such), but they should at least be breakable without a supercomputer at your disposal. And since none of the more experienced (than me) gamers were or are not able to break either one at this point, I sort of can't wait to see what comes next...

Guess I'm saying I'm hooked. Ugh.

While we're waiting for something to happen, I've been messing around the renata-isle/users site, and I came upon the following:

http://www.renata-isle.com/users/karin/index.php?memberid=1
- this points to Karin

http://www.renata-isle.com/users/karin/index.php?memberid=2
- this points to Anissa

http://www.renata-isle.com/users/karin/index.php?memberid=3
- this is for The Alimento...

Just something to keep in mind for later, I guess.

Windfall tournament is March 11th or so says the Wiki. Hope RHS gets crushed, tehe.

Good luck with the code, ya'll. I'll be away for a week or so (thank you spring break!), but if I get any response to those PMs I sent out to various characters, I'll try to post 'em up here if it is anything interesting.

Hmmm... it's all gone very very quiet. I hope something happens soon, I was expecting something this evening.

I have to say, i'm very disappointed with this game. I've contacted both Anissa and Karin- No response.

I have spent hours looking at the composer's puzzle...don't even know what i'm looking for.

NOTHING has happened today, not even a "You guys suck you can't figure out my clue"
