 		Hehe, I thought it might be the bag mentioned in the leaked emails, although the coat works well.

There's so much we don't know about the earth-based 3P. I guess in PXC they're assuming that if you cut the head off the rest can't function. But with it looking increasingly likely that V wasn't captured (they still haven't mentioned him)...

It also concerns me about what kind of earth-PXC link they have. They obviously have some control over our datalink but... I was going to post about this 3P email exchange as pointing to some kind of pre-san-fran matter transfer (as we specced at the time) but tbh, I'm not convinced. What has struck me is that so much of what they were saying in those Groupware emails still makes no sense. For example, doppleganger? There is so much more to the 3P than we know and I really don't think PXC should be underestimating them. They still want the Cube and do have a way of transporting matter to PXC; furthermore they may want revenge.

Oh my!!

What's to be revealed at the S1 party?

If the blogs were Earth-only, you'd think they could have been a bit more straightforward, or at least not played so utterly dumb this whole time. And not cracking after over two years of running and dodging and fiddling with lives? That's either excruciating, or those two are some cold-blooded mother Censored ers, I'll tell you what.


But Vi suspected Earth based 3P agents. And then we discovered that these agents existed. Who knew what kind of access they had. They probably monitored the blogs in the same ways that we did. Therefore, Vi and Kurt couldn't be blunt about the whole thing.

And think of the game, man. What would've happened to the game? Didn't we have a great time together? All those long, lonely nights, discussing Risk, or number strings. And let's not forget Billion to One; there's a puzzle that still hasn't been solved. Vi and Kurt did what they had to do to keep the Cube (and themselves) safe. I'm sure they thought it would keep their loved ones safe, as well, but they were proved wrong on that account.

I agree!
The whole Perplex City experience has been awesome. I think all that was done to construct the storyline, incorporate mystery, create characters, and add life to this 'game' was amazing. (game seems too small a word). I had a wonderful time keeping up with the whole thing, trying to solve the puzzles and the mysteries. (albeit, I was a little shy giving my 2 cents online because my ideas didn't usually seem to hold their own). It has been fun to read how things played out behind some of the scenes, and to hear some why's and because's.
Cheers to Mindcandy for all the fun they brought our way. I can't wait for more! Now that they've had some practice, I have a feeling their going to blow us away with season 2. And I really hope they can add more widespread action to the US this time 'round.

(edit: whoops I had credited the quote to the wrong player - fixed now)
