 		HOAX: Phillip Vector NOT in-game, please read
Quote:
Phillip Vector (5:34:11 PM): Hello.
Phillip Vector (5:34:23 PM): I understand you are a chess player.
Magesteff (5:34:25 PM): Hello... what can I do for you?
Magesteff (5:34:41 PM): Not a very good one...
Phillip Vector (5:35:19 PM): I see.. Do you happen to know anyone who might be on a higher level then yourself then? I need a challenge.
Magesteff (5:36:22 PM): Lett me ask around I may know a few who might give you a good run
Phillip Vector (5:37:01 PM): Thank you. I do hope that you can.
Magesteff (5:39:29 PM): Newbie 645 said he'd be interested...
Phillip Vector signed off at 5:41:32 PM.
Phillip Vector signed on at 5:52:22 PM.
Magesteff (5:54:30 PM): Back again I see.
Phillip Vector (5:54:44 PM): Yes. Unfortunally...
Magesteff (5:55:00 PM): How unfortunately?
Phillip Vector (5:55:18 PM): My life is games you may say..
Phillip Vector (5:55:33 PM): and without an opponent of my level, it's quite useless.
Magesteff (5:56:09 PM): Sorry I don't know any grandmasters personally. Wish I could help you.
Phillip Vector (5:56:39 PM): It's understandable. My quest continues. Perhaps Red Knight would be interested in a game later.
Magesteff (5:57:11 PM): If you can find him. He doesn't check in very often.
Magesteff (5:57:45 PM): And it was my understanding he doesn't play chess.
Magesteff (5:58:30 PM): If you can find Jake, I understand he is a good player.
Magesteff (6:00:31 PM): A few more are going to be home from work soon if you stick around I'm certain one of them would be of suitable caliber to match you.
Magesteff (6:01:09 PM): Say, do you know Reggie?
Phillip Vector (6:03:25 PM): Yes. I know of him.
Magesteff (6:04:07 PM): Poor Reggie, I'm worried about him. He got very upset a few days ago and attacked one of the other patients
Magesteff (6:06:08 PM): I wish there was a way for me to help him more.
Phillip Vector (6:06:27 PM): There is.
Magesteff (6:06:33 PM): How?
Phillip Vector (6:06:35 PM): lose allot.
Magesteff (6:06:45 PM): Heh... I usually do.

Magesteff (6:07:02 PM): too bad I get booted fromt he room as soon as I do.
Phillip Vector (6:07:31 PM): GO AWAY!!!!
Phillip Vector signed off at 6:07:52 PM.


***EDIT***
I left for dinner just after this conversation. this came in while I was out...

Auto response from Phillip Vector (6:43:55 PM): I'm looking at something else, I'll be right with you.

Phillip Vector (6:47:41 PM): I'll contact you some other time..
Phillip Vector signed off at 6:47:50 PM.

 		My Convo with Phillip Vector
RAMiles29: Hello there
RAMiles29: I here your looking for a Challenge
Phillip Vector: Yes.. But unfortunally, no one seems willing to offer one.
RAMiles29: Before I play..
RAMiles29: Some questions need to be answered!
RAMiles29: Do you know who red knight is?
RAMiles29: answer that and I shall play your game
RAMiles29: are you going to answer me
Phillip Vector: I'm here.. Doing other things as well.
RAMiles29: ok
Phillip Vector: I do not know RK personally. But I have played with him before.
RAMiles29: what kind of chess game does he play
Phillip Vector: It might be described as a Blitz game. He tends to move fast and sometimes gets careless.
RAMiles29: Is there a way to beat RK at his own game
Phillip Vector: There are always ways
RAMiles29: can you help me beat RK
RAMiles29: is RK Mesphito
Phillip Vector: Perhaps..
Phillip Vector: GO AWAY!!!

 		SOLVED: Phillip Vector is red herring
Sorry guys, but Phillip is a fellow player who was trying to spice things up... Here's the convo for anyone interested. Congrats to several in #acheron, especially addlepated, who picked up on the fact that he was a real guy, and NOT in-game:

Quote:
<snip part where I was asking in-game questions>
(00:00:26) dishboy: hey phillip I need to ask you a question
(00:00:35) Phillip Vector: yes?
(00:00:46) dishboy: I don't think you're really part of this game... so why are you pretending to be?
(00:00:54) dishboy: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=%22phillip+vector%22&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=3b4f9a36_1%40news.pacifier.com&rnum=9
(00:00:57) dishboy: check that out...
(00:02:10) Phillip Vector: What game?
(00:02:25) Phillip Vector: *nods* That's something I wrote a long time ago.
(00:02:50) dishboy: yep... but you contacted magesteff pretending to be somebody you were not
(00:03:43) Phillip Vector: *sighs* ok. You caught me. I was hoping to spice some things up in the game. Another personality isn't that unreasonable.
(00:03:49) dishboy: Smile
(00:03:57) dishboy: nice try phillip Wink
(00:03:58 ) Phillip Vector: Sorry for the trouble.

...

(00:10:32) Phillip Vector: Well, good work. I'll monitor and perhaps join in as a member of the white side. Smile Thanks for not being upset and since you will probably post this.. *waves to MageSteff*

 		So Vector is possibly Joseph Palser.
http://www.cyberspace.org/~vector/files.html

Sigh. The game didn't need spicing up. I disagree that it "wasn't unreasonable."

If you want to make it interesting, solve some of the damn thing so we can move on to other portions. THAT would spice things up.

 		Please don't impersonate in-game characters. Please don't claim to be an in-game character when you are not. Doing this just makes it uber-confusing for the rest of us.

It's just common sense. Flames not welcome.

 		I Can not believe we have been had by a IMPOSTER!!!!

How Gulible are we immeaditly assuming he is in game. We must be in pretty bad shape..

Phillip You have had your fun..

NOW LETS FIND THE DAMN SOLVE TO THIS>.. and FIGURE OUT Why Reggie is throwing these Movie QUOTES out at us and find what he is pointing to..

He's playing chess for fun now, So i think dont need to look for a game, but to get him to talk.
