 		Acheron Think Tank
This is the Brainstoming thread gang...
/me starts writting names on a large white board:
**GOD**
**RED KNIGHT**
**RED KING**
Who are they and where do they fit in?


Last night in chat we were kicking around a lot of things.
One of the subjects which came up is finding out the facility holding Reggie.

We are going to have to work on this a bit, so keep your eyes and ears open.

Reggie can see out into the parking lot of the facilirty, because he told me that "God" was getting in his car. Also confirmed when said car left the parking lot.
We need to get the license plate number from the car if possible to hand off to NRU SEC or to Meg so we can have someone run a DMV on it and get us the owners name and home address. Reggie is going to have to help us. Unfortunately they have him so doped up he can't think straight. Don't try a direct approach with him, I think the suits have done that too much, he will clam up if he thinks we are one of them.

Time to start figuring out where all the peices are on the board, because as Reggie said "resetting the peices will not work"

Those of you that can crack the codes from the e-mails and sites keep working on that, but the rest of us are going to need to do the legwork the old fashioned way. Time to hit the streets, listen in the back alleys and check all our sources.

(Yes, way way too many mystery/detective novels growing up)

Any other suggestions of where else we can look for clues?

 		a few ideas
Here are a few thoughts I have concerning whats going on. Reggie has been no help to me so far but I am posting all my convos with him anyways. Here are some thoughts though: We have seen there there is the existance of a group known as Landau, Luckman, and Lake. A very very famous referance to a popular comic called Wolverine, supplied by Marvel Comics Group. Here's the deal, there are other groups like the interdimensional time trippers that these men were in the comics. There was also a group known as the Hellfire Club. The group of social manipulators each took a role in anonymity by taking on the name of a color and regal name. Such as The Black King, The White Queen, and The Red King. There was at one point, though im not entirely sure, a Red Knight as well, but i will ask someone to check up on that for me. As for god, I think that requires a little more thought.

I think God is simply his psych-doc. He runs Reggie's world.

 		More clues...
For anyone interested, go check out my most recent convo with Reggie. He reveals to me the name of the White Knight, and the fact that there is a Black Knight as well. It's in the YIM Messages with Reggie posting.

Yes that was confirmed in one of the chat Monday Sept. 15. Drives a silver car with a coyote sillouette tag on the front, may not be a piece on the board, but something to keep in mind should it pop up in an unusual spot later.

We can also start keeping a record of the pieces that Reggie can tell us about...

Red Knight - visits Reggie regularly. The impression I get is that Dr. God will not bother Reggie while he is in the building. Confirmed the answer to the Earn.TXT is SPECTRUM, the russian Time Travel Experiment that leveled a town in the late 1970's. Strongly implied Caretaker is Red Knight, I suggest we lable all subsequent interactions as such.

White Knight - Removed from board (Jake? unknown Reggie would not say.)

Black Knight - active and moving. Reggie says Wants to be the Black King. this is the dangerous one folks.

Reggie - a pawn that has not been removed from the board. He does not want to be rescued, and recuing him may remove him from the board before he can be useful. The disk recieved pre-game is his work. Reggie called it a light to the path that leads to the door. Intended useage still up for discussion.

Squeaky Shoes are the interns and nurses at the facility where Reggie is held. They control the "Snack Cart" so far Pudding has been offered two days in a row. (no that is not a coded anything, but info to keep Reggie talking).


Most of us are familiar with the chess terms, but if you are not, just ask here and we will do our best to explain them.

We know that Caretaker is definitely Red Knight.

Thanks Cem.

A knight is also mentioned in Reggies Blog: "i don't like it. not bode well. lawyers gone. removed by knight"

Possibly the same one?

everlong978: is the White Knight Jake?
xover222: yes.
everlong978: thank you
everlong978: are the 3 Knights working against or alongside one another?

 		Random bits
katya2032: I am elsewhere. I wish to help you. But my knowledge is thin and runs to other things. Perhaps you could help me understand.
xover222: he has given you the path. you simply stop to look at other things along the way.

i.e we are stopping to smell the flowers too much lol

xover222: it listens
xover222: it never talks to me
xover222: it talks to god
mos_eisley_bartendar: I will give you a number the next time we talk.
mos_eisley_bartendar: and you shift what i say by the number I give you.
mos_eisley_bartendar: If I say "1," and type "A," the decoded message is "B"
mos_eisley_bartendar: you encrypt your lines, each one individually, with a separate number for each one.
mos_eisley_bartendar: and you don't tell me what it is.
xover222: YOU DON'T GET IT. IT IS LISTENING NOW.

Cameras and microphones. In every room… it could be the computer screen is turned so they can't read it. If Reggie supplied the Purge Disk then he knows how to wipe his tracks off the computer. They will not be able to crack a blank page, only know that something might have been there. I don't think we should push encryption on Reggie – he is having a hard enough time keeping it together.


xover222: you know a cat of sauce then? and steffmage?
midknight44x: yes

Whoo hoo Saucykat and I made an impression on Reggie!!! LOL


everlong978: do you fear the Black Knight?
xover222: i fear all the black pieces.

OK so now we know which side we are not on. If Reggie asks we are either white, red blue or brown. Never black, unless of course you happen to be Jamsi <evil grin>


xover222 (9:53:23 PM): no.
xover222 (9:53:33 PM): red knight drives a rental.
xover222 (9:53:40 PM): i see the sticker in the window.
enaxoro (9:56:21 PM): what does the sticker say?
xover222 (9:54:11 PM): alamao
xover222 (9:54:14 PM): sorry
xover222 (9:54:15 PM): alamo
enaxoro (9:57:00 PM): what kind of car does he rent?
enaxoro (9:58:58 PM): did the red knight come to see you today?
xover222 (9:58:30 PM): yes.
xover222 (9:58:40 PM): rental cars. all the same thing.
xover222 (9:58:50 PM): 4 wheels.

Ooo… smart… they know about my DMV stunt… heh.

enaxoro (10:01:52 PM): what kind of cars do you like?
xover222 (9:59:59 PM): i like nascars but i am not allowed to watch. they make me hyper.

My cousin likes them too. It gives me a different subject to talk to him about.

xover222 (10:06:30 PM): he told me the smart people found tabas.
xover222 (10:06:40 PM): he was upset with me helping.
enaxoro (10:09:29 PM): but he wasn't too upset was he?

Tabas? Was that the town that got et by the earthquake caused by SPECTRUM? Will need to go check.

enaxoro (9:22:20 PM): I hope we have earned his trust now
xover222 (9:20:10 PM): almost.
xover222 (9:20:15 PM): he says there is more.
xover222 (9:20:25 PM): someone told me the smart people call it journey

Yeah, we found the page, so I guess that is the next cipher to crack.

 		Re: Putting the pieces on the board
Mage,

See below for quote. In my conversation with Reggie last night (9/15) he confirmed that Caretaker IS Red Knight. In MidKnight's convo of the same day, He said that Jake IS the White Knight. No more speculation or guessing needed on those. Unless it becomes evident at some later date that Reggie does not have correct information. You probably have read the transcripts and realize this at this point, but since you posted this this morning after these had been available since last night, I wanted to post it so no one else would be confused on these points.

Red Knight - Strongly implied Caretaker is Red Knight, I suggest we lable all subsequent interactions as such.

White Knight - Removed from board (Jake? unknown Reggie would not say.)

[i][b]**GOD** - Principle Doctor/Administrator at the state facility where Reggie now lives

**RED KNIGHT** Caretaker, T Jones

**RED KING** Perhaps superior of Red Knight, dictating the moves

**BLACK KNIGHT** Someone we should be very wary of, not above killing if s/he feels it is needed

**WHITE KNIGHT** JAKE - per conversation with Reggie, has been removed from the board. (?Don't look for help from that quarter?)

 		WORD OF CAUTION
Guys just a little word of caution..


Reggie might be monitored... So black knight might be telling him what to say or do..

it might just be a trap.

We need to watch our steps.

and figure out how he is in contact with JAKE

Reid, He is not in contact with Jake. Jake is identified as the White Knight, which was removed from the board.

Reggie is talking to The Red Knight , (aka Caretaker, T. Jones)

And caution has always been a watchword.
