Got into my mail. Got one in the inbox and one in the trash. Don't know how to link up the mail (since this is the first time I have actually gotten swag) to you guys so as soon as I do I will tell you. Basically, they said that they gave me the wrong address for Mr. Caszinski (its 9400) and not to use such high explosives.

The best part is the one in the trash.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
We request that you maintain observation over your counterpart in the West Wing. Although he has shown a remarkable ability to do his job, he has gotten to be rather unpredictable.

If you see him get out of control, and potentially jeopardize the security of other staff as well as civilians, you are authorized to use whatever force necessary in order to control the siutation.

Thank you for your cooperation. Good night.

I took screen caps of them and send them up in a manner so appear only here.

Got a response back from the Cheerleader:

"Please provide additional information on the status of our friendship so I may set your status accordingly. I must know more about your intentions."

Um. Creepy. Trying to figure out how to approach this - all I can think of is the middle school "My friend really likes you but he doesn't really want to tell you" approach, but 1.) I like to think I've grown past that stage and 2.) the creepy wording makes me think that some imposter is running her facebook, and probably wouldn't take that as a suitable answer. But for lack of a better idea, I might try that one come morning, give the ol' subconscious a night to put it on a slow boil.

Wasnt sure if that is spoiler so I tagged it.

Ok here is the badge, the 2d bar codes and the emails. Pardon me for my stupid question about the upload. I never saw the add attachment function until just now. So looking forward to how this progresses!

Alex Murphy is, of course, RoboCop. And here are the emails in text form, just for completeness...

@Jelloarm>> I think we had the account closed by CorpSec, right? So I'm assuming they are running the account at this point, for whatever reason. Still, the love smitten high-schooler is probably as good an approach as any. Maybe play stoopid (you're getting so good at that Twisted Evil ) and see what it buys.

Um. Creepy.


I got the same thing, jelloarm, and I also thought it was a little creepy. The grammar is way too formal to be an 18-year old girl. Clearly someone is monitoring her account.

I went ahead and replied with something like:

I'm a friend of Gibson Case. We're working on a project together and he said you might be able to help.

I'm not sure if the vague wording and the name dropping will help or hurt, but I figure if it doesn't work for me, someone should try another approach and see what happens..

one thing that piqued my interest

someone....or something maybe? like a world class AI system.

Inspired by "V", one thing i've been trying is to "hack" the site. Unlocked some of the locked login forms but none of the username/password combos work. I've been through all the source code, and apart from comments from "V" nothing seems out of the ordinary.

I've tried logging in to the mail system, and then visiting the pages that end up redirected to the 501 page on the site, while still logged in, no luck. (for the record, a 501 error with a web server generally means "Not Implemented" or "The server does not support the functionality required to fulfill the request."...are we being laughed at??)

I just sent of an email to Joan Wilder, posing as Michael Loncaster, a lawyer representing a client wanting the services of deceptech...maybe we can get a client login of our very own Very Happy

The only other thing i can think of that i'm not sure we've tried yet, is "baiting" V somehow to see if we can get him to open it up for us...

Ok, sent my message back to the Bionic Cheerleader -

Quote:
Well, we dont' reaaaaally know each other, lol, but I'm a friend of Gilbert's and he like really likes you, like, Likes you, but he's such a shy dude, you know, and I'm his friend so I really want to help him but I don't want him to come off as a creeper, you know? So he totally doesn't even know I'm doing this, I'm just like, trying to find out what you think so I can be really sneaky and be like "Yeah dude, you should totally go for it" or "I don't know dude she just doesn't sound that interested" and be like some sort of spy wingman for him and totally help him out no matter what your answer is.

So... Friends Plz?


Soooo now we'll see.

OK, got creepy robo response from Jen. Decided to try a totally different route, something I've been wanting to do ever since I got that package in the mail Smile I'm posing as Ilsa.

VaWood wrote:
My name is Ilsa Lund. I work in Public Relations at DecepTech. This is simply an alias that I use so that only select people will be able to contact me through this site. I was just popping on to see how you are feeling. I noticed that your bright smile hasn't been at the front of the building to greet me in the past few days. When i saw you here on Facebook, I thought it would be a good idea to pop in and see if you were alright or needed anything.


EDIT: Totally tempted to write to Gilbert/Gibson as Ilsa, maybe offer him some inside help into finding her. I'm wondering if he'll open up if he thinks he's got a contact on the inside who will not only be able to help him find her, but also give a good word in to get him that job...... What do you think? Too much?

Is it just me or has Jennifer's Facebook page opened up? I can see it and yet I'm not one of her Friends.

Check it out:
http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=1626371395

Granted, I don't see a whole lot of new info there, but maybe I'm missing something, too.

I like the angle you're thinking about going with. It's definitely worth a shot.

I answer daddy's phones. Otherwise, I do nothing all day and get paid pretty well for it. Woohoo!


So let's look for Daddy's information. Any ideas?
