balancing sync and de-sync

[Khaos]

Personnaly, i'm quite sure that i am "de-sync proof". Since when i was young i was always doing unusual/nonsensical/stupid things (and encouraging others to do so too). So i have already created so many other self that this one time won't make a difference.

By the way, if you create a lot of parallel selves, the odds that you do something none of the others will do too are quite low.

Being already a particle of chaos (yeah that why i'm named like that), that theo mission won't change anything for me.

Hrm, I just realized the best way to defeat this initiation desynch. Actually coordinate the story on why it would be something you wouldn't do, but in reality it really is.

That's the double cross.

By making it appear as if you'd never do it, you can get Theo to believe it, yet, it's something that you could do/have done so it can prevent the desynch.

I don't think Theo would have any way of monitoring it. For example, if the run graph starts to dip, we could always say its because of the increase of personal labyrinths.

So we'd have to do something that seems outrageous, but isn't, and then tell our partner to suggest that as our task. Just the very act of telling them what task to give you would avoid the desynch.

Make sense?

Hi guys,

I'm entirely new to ARGs and whatnot, and this would be my first one. I have read all of the Beginner Data, the Timeline, etc. etc., and I'm completely up to date. I was wondering if I could help in the desynching/deceiving Theo process. Having never contacted any of the six, or Eli, or anyone else related, I am a completely clean slate - the perfect double agent, if you will. Someone/thing like Theo would never suspect someone like me.

So yes, please, I'd be willing to help in any way that I can. I'm Chariton, btw.

I've been writing to Kai about this and he thinks that the infiltration is a good idea, so I'm gonna go ahead and submit the ideas I've come up with, for momonga to do.

Kai also seems aware of the James thing and is asking for evidence, but he said nobody's been willing to pass along the alleged photo. Diego encouraged me earlier to get to Kai before James does, so I guess it's okay to send it on, at this point?

If everyone is worried about the desynchronization messing up the six's plans, then maybe we should only have a select few go through with this mission? Or even one person? One pair would be enough to collect information without potentially upsetting the balance at all, I'd think. A pair of double agents to send information back and forth.

Just a thought.

So finally elite.fencer and I are partner and received a mission mail from theo. Same text as posted before but with a different picture attached.

elite.fencer will try to play a double-agent (trying to lower the effect of our desynch event), whereas I am actually "playing" on the Theo side and will not do additional efforts for synchronizations (I hope you still like me )

Nevertheless we both will discuss our tasks before we send them to Theo (which is against Theo's rule).

BTW. Have I understood the mission correct: The players choose their location themselves whereas the task is choosen by the other partner?
e.g. Partner A chooses a (for him unusual) location where he wants to perform the desynch and Partner B defines the task Partner A has to do.

Gah, I KNEW that guy was being suspicious.

AUZ505, did Theo give any reason for sending you that picture?!?

The guy in the photo is me. That's the back of Ariock's head on the left.

This photo was taken when Ariock, hmrpita and I met Noriko at South Park here in San Francisco. There was this hella suspicious blond guy taking pictures of us, ducking behind trees when I would look at him etc. but since we were so worried about Noriko actually showing up, when she did I totally forgot about him. So it's likely James was at the park, taking photos/gathering intel on us during that meeting.

They are watching indeed.
