I have a simple question:
How did you get DEA if the third letter of Pizza is Z?

 		For the record, I got the email as well:

Quote:
BUBBLE GUM

Now I've got your attention, I wanted to say Hi.

It's Pali emailing you.

"Who is Pali?" I hear you asking yourself. Don't worry, I don't know who you are either. Actually, I was just randomly emailing people, while I have an internet connection, which won't be long.

But, I am so bored here, and really want to talk to someone outside the centre. So, pleeeeease reply.

I'm going to ask again, really nicely, because I've emailed a lot of people, and none of them want to reply to me, so, pleeeeeeeeease with a merry cherry on top reply. And, if you have any friend could email me, get them to.



Is this a scam? Is this spam?

No, it's not, and I will prove it to you by describing what's happening in this room right now.

Tom A is playing tag with Kite, and messing up the beg which Nics so furiously made earlier.

Nics herself is just staring into space. Wonder what she's thinking about.

Dengo is staring at Nics. Hmm…

And me, of course, well, I'm emailing you.



Pleeease reply!

Thanks!



Pali


My response...

Quote:
Sorry... What?

Hello, I guess. You caught me a little off guard as I seldom receive unsolicited emails on the Internet. This is a first, and it's got me intrigued.

I know the feeling about being bored... So what do you want to talk about?


'cause, you know, I never get random emails sent to me. I must research this phenomenon further!

 		Capital letters in the subject equal TINAG btw.
my convo so far:

'Lo

You don't know me, but my name is Pali.

I don't know you either.

I just decided to email you, because frankly, I'm really quite bored.

If you're bored, or even if you're not bored but you just exist, you should reply, just so I can talk to someone outside the centre. Also, if you know anyone who is bored, or exists, tell them to email me too.



I will give you proof that I am real. I will tell you what's happening in this room around me.

Nics is playing chopsticks with Kite. They've been going round in circles for ages.

Tom A is reading this over my shoulder, and looking at me all disapprovingly.

Dengo isn't here right now, but we're supposed to see him later, maybe.

And I'm on gmail.



So, you should email me back. I've got something fun we should do, if you decide to.

Thanks!



Pali

I'm bored and I exist, what's chopsticks?

You're bored and exist, I'm bored and exist... We must be soul mates!
Chopsticks is just this game, I think it has other names, but chopsticks is what we always call it.
It's really easy to play.
Basically, you both start with one finger on each hand, and you take turns picking a finger to tap.
So, say I was Nics, and you were Kite, and we both have one finger on both our hands.
I would tap your left hand. Then your left hand would have two fingers. Then, you might use your left hand to tap my right hand, then my right hand would have 1 + 2, so three fingers. Etc. You win, when you make both the other person's hands add up to 5 exactly. If they add up to six, then it's circular, and they go back to one.
That's a pretty crappy explaination, but you get the idea.

If you like games, maybe you will like puzzles?
I make puzzles in my spare time (because it gets sooo boring here),and I'm always looking for people to try them out on.
If you get three right.... then Iyou get a link to where you can find out more about me.
How about that?

Or, we could just chat, which is fun too.

Thanks for replying!

Pali

chopsticks sounds interesting, i've not heard of a game like it before, and I love puzzles.

That's the perfect grid to solve this puzzle, but I just realised I forgot to send everyone one really important clue!
I (Pali) am not the one who likes Omelettes.
I'm so sorry!


Back to the drawing board.

 		This one has me pretty intrigued. I work 12 hour shifts at a computer so if you need a puzzle man then I'm your guy. I'll be working this grid for the next 8 hours.

 		Well, I've asked Pali for another hint, we'll see what happens. Here is my progress so far.

ETA - Success!

Pali wrote:
Hmm...
Alright, just because I like you.
Clue 10. Dengo has black hair.
Hope it helps!
I've got to spend more time making sure these puzzles work!


ETA2- Updated the graph.

 		Some communication:

Pali wrote:

Hi there!
Yep, puzzles and communicating are my two favourite pastimes. Great to find someone else who likes them both too!
I'm Cat A - category A. It's, I think, originally a security level or something, but Tom A, Kite, Nics and I (we're the Cat. As) have kind of adopted it as a name for us all.
Category B... Is like other people who work at EMA. Our tutors are cat. B. I think Annabell is cat. B (that's Farren's secretary). I'm sure there are other cat. B people - from what I know, there's atleast twenty five of them. But I haven't met most of them.
Nice to hear from you,
Pali

I do like communicating!
I've been at EMA for... since I was ten... five years now...
I'm pretty sure there's only selected people.
Most of the people here have been working here for ages.
I think they "find" people, rather than "hiring people", at least in category A, B, and C.
