We should post a bunch on here and have a vote. The first one sounds good. He probably won't tell us his real name.


Well I mean "real" as in what's the character's real name, not the PM's. Just not one of the anagrams.

I meant the character not the PMs....he said something about being undercover so we'd have to blow the character's cover.

Sorry ive not been around the last day or so, Doctors appointments and all.

Anyway good questions!! I have a feeling he might tell us his real name in the package, if hes trusting us enough to help him Im guessing he can trust us enough to tell us his name.
I was going to say if there was a website, etc, but I just decided that was stupid question so ignore that xD

Id like to know why he was recruited so young, but again Im guessing that will be spoken about in the package

I'll try to set up a poll somewhere so people can vote on the options. Bear with me though, I've not done it before

EDIT - I've set up the poll on my site. You will find the right page at http://bes-t.co.uk/node/177 (or "Poll" in the menu from the homepage).
It's set to run for 2 days, people can vote for up to 5 options, and should be able to add comments if they want to suggest other questions. Hope it's ok, now get voting Very Happy

Just voted....i don't know if we can campaign for specific questions, but I'd focus more on the questions about his father. I'm going to assume that if kid wants to come clean, the package will contain information about London Operations, so we won't need to waste one question on what london op actually does. Secondly, is the kid's real name that important?

As far as the rest of the questions go, I'd change the format of some of them so that the kid can't answer them in short yes/no answers.

Finally, i think we should ask why the kid contacted us in the first place.

Lol! I didn't mean that my questions had to be law per se! XD I was just giving ideas. Especially since I agree with Hyexistenz in that no question should be left in a format that he can answer with only a yes or no answer. But I guess we can do that after we decide what questions we really want answers to. So, voted ^^

I may close the poll a little earlier than the full 2 days, so we can work on rewording whatever the top 5 questions are. I know you didn't mean for your offerings to be the final ones, it's just I needed something to start the poll off with, and was trying to get it going as quickly as I could!

Need more votes though - come on you lurkers, get clicking

Oh, dudes, i'm sorry, i guess my question "why did you decide to email us in the first place" is pretty much the same as the other question "why did you email us." I think i even voted for the question "why did you email us." Sorry about my brain taking a vacation.

Damn, I thought I was on to a lie then, when he said "Why would she recruit her 16 year old son..."

Because I remember him saying
Quote:
17:48:17: I mean, I'm just 17, and I'm already involved in lies and deceit. It shouldn't be like that.


But he said JUST 17, so I was actually on to nothing -,-

You could be onto something, it could be read into two ways.

Just 17 as in ive only just turned 17
or
Just 17 as in 'im only young'

Did that make sense?!

I took it to mean that he's 17 now, and was recruited when he was 16 (so just at some point before his last birthday). I don't think it's significant (but I'm usually wrong!)

I don't think it could be significant either to be honest, how's an age going to help in anyway Razz

Right, I'm going to close the poll now so I can get the questions to him in the next few hours. As it happens, there were 5 that came out in the lead, so the final selection is
  • What does London Operations actually do?
  • Why did you go to meet with your father?
  • How is your father involved in this?
  • What is your real name?
  • Did you really send us the emails?

Do any of them need rewording in any way? I think the last one probably does, as it could just give lead to a yes/no answer, but I can't think of another way of putting it. Suggestions/comments by 21:00 please (giving a little over 2 hours from the time of this post, for those in foreign parts Very Happy ) Otherwise I'll send them off as they are.

Incidentally, has there been any further contact about tomorrow? I've not had any more details about the where or when. I'm still able to go if required, assuming the trains are running.

Id probably say something like 'Did you really send us the emails and why did you sign it JF' or 'Did you send us the emails and why?' perhaps?
