 		Setting up an alternative means of communication
I have two minutes before I have to leave.. I just had this thought..
Can we set up an IRC channel that the characters could also speak in?

I would do it , but I just thought of it.

I think that SO may be going down and we will need another place to be.

If anyone has other ideas, let me know.

We can always use the despoiler wiki site I guess. If someone wants to just set up a simple page there?

Sorry to not be more help. :/

have fun.

 		I'd put in a vote for an IRC channel that the characters can go to. Not that I know how to put one of those together or anything.

It's not too hard, and I'm sure someone more skilled than me could get it registered and whatnot.

#sentryoutpost on chat-solutions, perhaps?

 		I guess a problem with this is that Sentry Outpost itself is a public form of communication, viewable by the baddies. So should we tell the remaining sentries through PM? If it is one of them behind this, then if info we only share in a private way pops up again, we could narrow it down.

Would we be able to pretend to give up the fight publicly, but secretly continue the investigation on the new irc, and maybe a private forum? We can only assume that the baddies have the login details of their victims. Sad

Or is this overcomplicating things?

 		I could totally make a new forum for us that's well-protected if we want... IRC works fine, but I would need a link to the host. I'm really bad with IRC.

 		and why bother with an easily infiltrated IRC, when we can create a secure one of these:

http://www.boutell.com/perlmud/

in which we could also replicate the scenes we've run across in the choraz muds, and maybe make some sense of them..
