As a note, I did try to cheat on one of the first tests, but I was drunk and tired and completely failed to get it to work.

Maybe the system remembered that you tried, even unsuccessfully, to cheat in the past?

I myself set up two separate accounts, one for cheating and one to keep clean. Both got set to Black Swan, so I'm thinking that the one account contaminated the other, perhaps by sharing the same computer.


Yeah, that could be it actually. Ah well, I'm happy with my placement, just hope we don't have to wait too long to find out where it all goes next! I'm bored, damnit.

My cheat account got black swan, and my clean account got white. I never cleared cookies or anything like that.

Maybe Black Swan will contact the cheaters to wipe their accounts of the cheats and infiltrate the DI. It would be awesome if this continued throughout the new season.

wait a sec. In one of the emails, Han's phone number was revealed. It had no significance before, but it could lead to something later.

So he says, yes. However I, as well as several other people, are batting around the idea that Hans is not the real Black Swan, and that this is a "save-face" maneuver on the part of DI because they do not really know who the BS actually is. So while he says that he is the Black Swan, do not assume that is the truth, as the Dharma Initiative is, by nature, a deceptive group. Wink

Yeah, the way I see it, Hans posed as the Black Swan purely to catch people out. I don't think he's the actual Black Swan.

I don't think he is BS either, just covering his arse and I bet there is more to come on Oct. 7th or there abouts (since they are always a day late)

Man, that was brutal on my poor dialup.

Anyway: a White Swan is me. \o/

Black Swan here. Cheated on all but the first test, or maybe the 2nd (don't remember).

and another thing, the last email stated that the Volunteer Assessment Dossier will be available to public on December, 15.

There's no point of having us wait that long, even if its an ARG. The puppetmasters are up to something.

Watching that video, I initially got worried maybe (as a cheating Black Swan) I'd get screwed out of the 'full experience' of this game, that the White Swans would get extra stuff to do (I even thought about creating a second account) but, having thought about it, I don't think the PM's would put puzzles out there that lead to cheats, only to punish us for solving the puzzles and using the 'reward'.

I figure it's gonna be a Jedi/Sith deal, with someone (possibly Mittlewerk) making contact with the BS' to work against Hans and the WS' - what do you think?

My question is do we really have to wait until December now?

I've been a big "wait wait, it will get cool" player from the beginning. My interest in this game has waned a bit (I'm up to other things), but I STILL think it will get cool. I hope, anyway. I would be kind of sad if nothing happened until December!

Why in the world did they tape all of us at Comic Con, I wonder? There was other Lost stuff there and they didn't do a whole lot at that booth. Seems like a bit of a waste if nothing else comes of that. Then again, I'm not ABC with billions of dollars, so "waste" is a relative term! Smile

And yeah, I cheated all the way. Black Swan.

I got White Swan. How come there are two little devil smilies over there <-- but none with a halo?

Did people who didn't cheat but got Black Swan anyway maybe take the tests without being logged in first? Maybe they would have counted that as a cheat?

EDIT:
    Here's all my results:
  • Ganymede
  • Steropes
  • Antaeus
  • Helios
  • Oranos
  • Ares
  • White Swan


And I had the test with the modern architecture questions.

Another thought about White Swan / Black Swan: could it be related to Dharma Points? I have none.

Swans...

Sounds to me like we may be having a war...white vs. black, good vs. evil, although lost never really has defined the two...
