Trust me when I say this message is safe from being watched. A good friend of mine provided me with the method. However, the safety is only one way, so your reply must be vague. I have some questions to ask, you may answer "the former" or "the latter" to each, so the intention of your message isn't known to anyone watching.

I know we are looking for someone. Are they from 2007, or 2037?
Do they have a profile in the system, or will we have to contact them some other way?

Hopefully you will know what to call them.

The former is the first item in a two item list. So you need to find an agent in our time who does have a profile in the system.

i fear that i cannot keep communicating on this matter. Sooner or later dc will have enough information to work out who this man is. if i give you too much information, i Could be locked out of the system, while they investigate my susPisciousness. agentlex has a friend who is of avon, right? HE's not the man wE're looking for, but yes the one you seek is not in the system. that's out goal. we need them here.



Hi again,


Sorry about my posts since I registered, before I actually registered I occasionally had something positive to input, but I registered today and it seems that everything I now say seems to be negative, does the TOS on this forum include a Karma shift??? Laughing

** WolfHawk ** - Not sure I agree with what you have stated. Agent Lex asked two questions, but got only one answer, unless there is some sort of agreement that exists that we do not know of? (ie. the answer doubles up). The way I am currently understanding this, is as follows:

1) The answer "The Former" was a direct answer to the date question.
2) The person we seek is not currently on the Interface.

Why??

The received answer (The Former) will address one of the q's posed, and we know that Slewth is almost insistant on not repeating himself.

So working backwards :

2) "but yes the one you seek is not in the system. that's out goal. we need them here." <----- quote from Slewth
which makes,
1) 2007


This is how I am reading what has been posted so far, not sure what everyone else thinks? I trust everyone will make their view known.

AgentLex,

Here's the answer to the second question you gave me. I sent them seperately to remain under the radar.
The Latter


So yes, 2007 and not in the system.

 		ok, Stratford, north london....

could the second/third/fourth be referring to directions?

like, 1=north, 2=south, 3=east, 4=west?

another point...

Martin Luther King was assassinated on March 4th, 1968.

that's what i've got.

EDIT: might have just found something interesting... and lex, you would be the best one to look into this...

The North London Line terminates at Stratford. The fourth stop on the line is Hackney Central, and it terminates at the other end at Richmond.

dunno if that dead-ends or not, might as well feel it out now.

Morelaak.

 		Progress
Hi All,

I'm convinced I know where the guy is, I'm just trying to work out who he is and how to contact him.

The reason I hadn't disclosed this so far is that I believe that there is more information somewhere, that does not appear here. The rhyme will lead you to the place, and contrary to the early posts it's not in the UK.

So, I appeal to everyone to check their inbox, and if you have anything that's not already posted here, tell us about it or better still paste the "whole" message here.

 		Cryptic Clue
** morelaak **


If my Line of thinking is correct, which I hope it is, you are closer than you think my good friend. If people respond to my request for the information that I believe is still out there, I'm sure it will be easier to Track this person/contact down.

 		MLK Jr. speech
Alrighty, I've been looking at the IHaD speech and noticed something I think to be slightly of interest, well at least to me. The forth paragraph. It is the basis for those that were fighting for equal rights and the reason we oppose Foo.
Quote:
In a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable Rights" of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."


Oh- I'm a real stickler for this MLK and MLK Jr. are two different people. We are assuming that Slewth is talking about Jr. but maybe he he talking about the father.
Ok, so what the hell am I doing besides tlaking out of my ass? I'm guessing we need to find a lurker on the system that's not logged into the site. Someone who is supporting the cause (like MLK) but that's not making himself a figurehead and putting himself into danger (like MLK Jr. did). That's my guess.... is there anyway to see who's just a guest around here? That might be a way to find him.

AndI've had no cntact with SLewth despite my attempts to previously.

 		I just sent slewth the following message, hoping he'll help us out some more.

Quote:
sleWtH--

i Apologize for being obTuse. could you poSsibly ProvidE us with anothEr hint? i'd like to help you, but we Can't without some more Help from you.


SteveMids--if you have an idea, please share it with us--the point of the collective intelligence is using the intelligence of the collective. Someone might catch something you're missing--especially since there's been a lot of backstory in this game, and we might have missed something in transcribing the information to the wiki and forums. (*steps off the soapbox*)

 		UPDATE: Got a response from slewth.
Quote:

I really can't help you any more. I think they're coming for me. I've given to much away. And as for the message I left at the sports complex, I think that was the final straw.

Damn lack of FREEdom of speech


In the Sportscomplex, slewth wrote the following message:
Quote:
Forget the Olympics, forget the future. Look to the present.

The whole world may be talking about them, but there's really only one person's adice you seek. London 2007.

--. --- / ..-. --- .-. - .... / .- -. -.. / ..-. .. -. -.. / .... .. --


Morse code translates to
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
GO FORTH AND FIND HIM


I'm going to see how the Stratford Station might fit with this. Also, Olympic Park is being built in Stratford in 2012...but slewth just told us to forget it.

 		How can we find someone not on the system? It's not like we can just walk around a city asking about Deus City can we? Even then there's only two people in the game that are from the area. grrrr i'm confused. And who is "them"?
