From a Pharmament page: http://www.gunspiracy.com/dansblog.asp (emphasis mine)
Quote:

Hi Dan, you might not know me. Sorry to have hacked your blog to gain entrance.
My name is Dante, my organisation is suspecting Pharmament to be up to some very dangerous things.
I am currently in the finishing stages of my masterpiece. A self aware computer, or better an AI. This computer can gain access to anything (even your blog, as the Beta has shown Wink.
I can use your help with testing it.
Be aware, the computer sees itself as a living being. I have named him E.Y.E., because he sees everything that's happening on the Internet.

Good news of the day: EYE is in fact an AI. I never bought the fact that it was a specific person although they all referred to EYE as 'him'.

hello all,

well given the developments tonight, looks like i am in proper on TSO just in time for april 1st.

forgive me if this has been mentioned but in the 40 pages i have just read i didn't see it, and it's probably new because we only just found out about pharmament...

the newspaper headline about the killer virus, with the blacked out segments...can we assume the name of the doctor involved in the spread of the virus, which people felt began with an M, is in fact mandelstrom, from pharmament?

will try to catch up more tomorrow, after a good night's sleep

Wow...
I think this was the best midgame show-down I have ever seen.

And it was perfectly designed. Even from a technical point of view. Using totally different web ressources (email provider, myspace, twitter,...) really let people think that both things are not related. And than simulatanously they resolve the relation.

PM's if you read this: I am overwhelmed Rock On

Hey mycroft Smile
As far as the article, it was speculated that the name could have been 'Mandera' (http://tso.wikidot.com/the-secret-organization-myspace#may01-microbe) - of course our friend Henry Mandelstrom might fit better...

Now if it had been a Happiness Microbe rather than a Happiness Potion...

Looks like I need to catch up on all the Pharmament information now. Also say "Hello!" to all the pharmament folks who weren't already cross-over players...

It seems deliberate that this was made to seem like two games, and thus two groups of players with a few playing both. Perhaps Pharmament has some connection to STV?

Holy.
Monkey.
Poo.

This just went from 'personal experience' notes on my paper to front and center. And just... yes, PMs, you are made of win.

I have some backlog to read.

All right.. while I'll take at least a short break from wiki editing right now (AUZ is updating a lot of stuff on TSO Wiki), here's how we think we'll handle the merging.

TSO Wiki will probably become the main wiki for this, since it has been around longer and has more users.
We'll retain Pharmament wiki with all the info it has so far, but the two wikis will probably get cross-linked as needed.
So, I guess if you want to fix or add to the wiki, you should do it on the TSO Wiki side. Thanks.

I am still somehow confused about the connection of the two games. Everything that happened on Pharmament in connection with Dante and E.Y.E. has happened before January 3rd.
E.Y.E. became active on February 8th.
Even though Pharmament is probably a bad organization I do not see a connection to the virus (yet).

#Pharmament

Hey folks, I've been playing with the #Pharmament because I thought it was a relatively 'young' arg...I can see that this is more in-depth than I realized - haven't taken time to read all the backlog on TSO, don't know if I will yet or not (lurking in several games right now + RL keeps me busy).

What I would like from you guys is this - I set up #Pharmament on chat-solutions, and while I have no problem admin'ing the chan, i'd like/appreciate it if some of you regular IRC users with registered nicks who'd be willing to chanOP let me know in the channel, and I can op you up. If I didn't work all day long, I'd not worry about it and just op you in as you came in, but since I usually have a limited window of opportunity (pun intended) to take care of my hobbies, I thought I'd go ahead and extend the invitation.

Tal
