Haven't seen this posted yet. I was BCC'd it, so it wasn't addressed to me. However...
Quote:
I'm being asked by numerous people about a fake Korporation website or
phone number or something to that effect. I have no time to be tracking
everything the Korporation (or one of their factions) does. All I know is
this, people are spending far too much time feeding the wrong wolf. The
more time people spend dwelling on the Korporation and their activities,
and the more time people spend trying to get information out of them
(which is like getting blood from a stone), the more powerful they become.
They feed off of energy and attention, whether negative or positive. The
amount of time people are spending on dealing with the Korporation is
staggering. Imagine if that time was spent doing something else, or
dealing with something positive. The possibilities are amazing.

Much Respect,
2C (Jonah)


I was kidding about e-mailing him everything, btw...

Well I guess we could. I still don't understand the Korp at this point. Hmmm... Maybe I don't want to understand them.

Oh. Hey. Hi. Best day of my life. Read from the bottom:

Quote:
YES. PERMISSION TO RICKROLL. TODAY IS SURELY THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE.

XDDD
I am so amused by this.
Jonah, you should rickroll them, too!

I'm bad at ignoring the trolls... as is obvious, just ask Nikki. But I'm
great at trolling them back! And so are you, that had to have been the
most amusing thing I've read ever.

X3 I love you!

There has been some talk in the chat room about this being cultish so I asked 2c if this was a cult, I also asked if this was an Arg (a topic also brought up in the chat room). These were his answers

Quote:
1. Cult? Scary. Please don't worship us. There is indeed a higher
power
in this universe, and it is not us.

2. There is extreme individuality within a deck that is uniform only in
shape, size, and sometimes... purpose.

3. The Aces have asked that we not define SL. We don't want to put
this
in a box. If the Passengers care to put walls up and paint them colors
they find pleasing, so be it. You won't find us defining much outside
of
Art, Information, Chaos, and Love.

Hmmm... 3.) Someone seems to be leaning on the 4th wall a bit, and it looks like it's made of glass. Wink

You know what, I was actually thinking about the previous post and this one where 2C's quoted as saying
Quote:
"Our eyes don't wander where they shouldn't. We have morals and ethics. We don't need to go about gathering information through deception. Not our style. We hear what we hear and see what we see through many of you coming directly to us on the few websites where we are out in the open. We're not like anyone you've dealt with before.

Much Respect,
2C (Jonah)"

Both mentioning ARGs on our part, and alluding to the existence of uF just seems like a tear in the curtain if you will.

I've never heard 2C (or any of them, for that matter) ever use the term ARG, game, or mention anything about UF or forums whatsoever. I don't think they broke any rules. The emails I've sent to 2C where I've used the terms game, ARG, etc., he wouldn't even repeat those terms back to me when he responded. Actually, based on some things they say sometimes, I wonder if this even IS an ARG in the traditional sense.

I don't think the deck has violated any PM ethics.

Is that what you're saying?

I'm not saying violated. Just a bit of stretching by allusion. Make sense?

Well, I'd like to know your name if it already hasn't been ask. We know
Jonah and Athena and Jane (because she signs her bulletins) but I don't
think we are aware of your name. It's nice to make your aquaintance.

Can I ask if you are the card the represents chaos or art? I just can't
figure you out yet, since well, I don't know you! Smile

I'm so glad that we will be getting to hear more from you! I was afraid
that 2C would take all of the time (just kidding, I love him!)

Well, I really don't know what else to say and I'd hate to waste your
time. I just wanted to say hello and actually send you and email.

Take care,

Jae

I have no idea if this is important, but it involves my take on the ALICE theory, that chaos cannot be the Korp, because chaos is essential to love. I wrote a haiku about it and sent it to 2S. I sent a few other haiku, but her responses don't seem to mean anything beyond their face value.

So, what I'm wondering about is "fish for clues". Should we be looking for something? Confused

Eh, Spades is like that. She has random answers and or responses to stuff I've sent and written her.

Kinda like me a little.


I love it! Smile
