Here's a random thought; what if this isn't a terrorist attack, a hit on the president or some scientific bio-chemical meth lab gone bad kind of scenario. What if, hold on to your cheeks, it's a coordinated attack by blind people to make the world 'see' their side of everything. I have no idea whether this can make sense in any direction, but I guessI feel that if this is true I can see why the gold ward is gold(en). I dunno, just a thought. Also, if this were true, the blind would effectively become the most important in the world instead of the disregarded, neglected perceived niche they are today. The only people that seem to care about the blind are the blind themselves, their families, people who can make a buck out of it and friends of blind people. That's about it, there are very few people outside of those groups that actually give two ... blarghs about blind / deaf / terminally ill / etc. people.

I GOT A REPLY!!

I just got a reply from Them!!

Quote:
"Saki,
Thank you for your assistance and turning in your teammate. It will not be
forgotten. In choosing to work with us you are privileged to certain
information. The data about The Gold Ward is very sensitive. Your
teammates are trying to retrieve it. We are not pleased about this.

This photograph gives you a more detailed view of where the data is
located should you decide to work with us further. However, if you release
the data or the exact location to your teammates we will not look so
kindly upon you in the future.

The choice is yours, Saki."


Here's the photo: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y161/Saki-kun/TGWData.png

I think this proves there is something in the bushes! Also, I'm apparently a double agent now XD

Well jelly beans, there ya go! And you don't have to worry about 'releasing' the information to us and getting in trouble, since you won't be the one retrieving it anyway. Of course, you did post here...but this is kind of off-limits ain't it? Anywho. Cool stuff.

so something reddish looking is buried behind that bush? Tell your dad to bring a shovel, Ineffabelle. Wink

Now we see what happens to Evanly...?

Well, that's why I posted it here and not on the IG forums...'They' made it pretty clear that I'm not to release that information to the rest of you...and as far as They know, I'm not Razz

Evanly, please let us know what happens, yeah??

Just an update on the pictures. I ran Camouflage, stegdetect, stegbreak and a few other applications to see if there were any images or other forms of steganography in the previously posted files. Came up empty. Only by adjusting the sensitivity of stegdetect to above 2.34 did it find something. And that doesn't mean anything because that's a pretty high sensitivity rating, that would probably find jphide traces in any picture you throw at it. So basically, nothing. Tried every algorithm I could find. I'll run it on the liberty statue picture, but I doubt I'll find anything. So much for that.

EDIT: SOMEBODY JUST RECEIVED SOMETHING IN THE MAIL, HE'S CALLED GRICKILY ON THE IAMBLIND FORUMS!

I find it very odd he doesn't seem to know about the movie or anything that's going on...he joined the board today. Why on earth would he get a package? Think he's a mole or something?

Let's just say that caution may very well be in place here. He did post pics, that's good.

NOTE: Bl is sometimes used in Catholicism to denote the prefix "Blessed", maybe that's something because the braille on the envelope says "I AM BL".

So... I am blessed? lol. Could be, good info. Do you think grickily should open the letter, or deliver it to the location listed?

EDIT: looks like agentspunky got the package too, same stuff. Guess it's reliable. I wonder who else will get it now?

Even though agentspunky got the same package, I don't trust grickily. I mean, he JUST started posting and he got a package?? I checked his info and his profile was just registered today. It could be legit, but I don't think so...

Exactly, I don't trust him either.
Why would they have his address if he didn't know anything about the game?
In the words of the great captain Mal,

"TRAAAAP!"

Firefly FTW!

I'm so pissed...my mail office on campus isn't open until Monday, so I don't even know if I have a package waiting or not!! DX

ETA: coljnr9 on the IG forums says the Infection is starting to spread...what's going on?!

ETA again: Never mind. I fail at reading. XD

Wow...agentspunky and grickily. So packages=infection. But the voice(mod?) was who sent us the packages, which means it was an intentional spreading of the infection...which they told us they wanted us to stop. I don't know about grickily, but does agentspunky have a proxy? I hope so, I'm eager to learn where the infected are being directed to.


in unrelated news, JOSS IS BOSS! O:

I have a theory here...perhaps those two were "intentionally" brought into this (i.e. plants) to move the game along? It does seem a little quick to get packages if they were just shipped on Friday.

In more unrelated news, PLEASE tell me you've seen Dr. Horrible. Very Happy

True. I'm definitely suspicious of grickily...it's possible that agentspunky was a plant...or at least that they contacted him/her separately to ensure they recieved the package and kept things going.

Unrelated news 3: Oh hun. I was at the ComiCon screeing...and forgive me for saying this but...I shook Joss Whedon's hand. While I was dressed as the Horrible doctor himself.
Best. Moment. Of my life. :DDDD
Are you ready for massive sing-a-long screenings to take over America?!?!

Ok cool.... now my dad will know exactly what to look for! This is exciting... I'm going to send him all the pics and prep him tonight Very Happy

I haven't really posted anything on the IG forums.... and I think perhaps I should lay low on there if I'm going to be the one retrieving the drop....

Also I'm hanging out on our irc channel #iamblind right now if anyone wants to discuss or coordinate anything....

EDIT: Thanks Saki for the pic!!!! I will post pics as soon as i can tomorrow (though I might have to take them w/ my iSight and they might not be the best quality...)
