Ok. I am posting this response because I feel like some of you players have a right to know what is happening in your game Wink

There are Two curtains (possibly more) in play at this time. There are players who have been given permission by the original PM to create a game within a game type thing with Wuf. I just wanted to post some sort of bulletin that alerted my fellow players of what type of game this has evolved into. I think Sandbox is the term. There is a serious discussion on it going on inthe META thread if any of you have questions.

We also chat in the IRC if any of you are interested in discussing things.

That discussion involves a LOT of issues. Relevant to us starts here.

I've got a code to the WUF-Reporter blog:

Any idea? (First I thought, it were substitution, but only 24 letters).
ROT seems not to work (even if in the ROT-2 is the first sequence "MOVME" [="move me"?])

So! Our intrepid PM is attempting to assuage any hurt feelings and miscommunication. I received (as presumably did others) the following e-mail:
Our Puppetmaster wrote:
A doctor always says to apply pressure to a wound when it opens up, so I'm pushing. Scheduling a mini-PM chat to try to stop this bleeding. This will not reveal anything outside of addressing the current MrKrop storyline, and for that matter, won't really reveal anything there. This is just to get out in the air what exactly is going on here, and to try to settle some of the stomach that the whole story isn't sitting as well with. Long story short, 3:30 PM - ? today, EST(that's 12:30 for you west coast-ers), we'll- as my grandpa would say- "Cuss and discuss this out." If you can make it, terrific, if not, that stinks, just make sure I or someone has any questions you would want to ask if you were in attendence. Note: NOTHING outside of MrKrop will be discussed, so some thin version of TINAG can still stand. If you don't want to participate, I'm sure logs and relays of what happens will be available after we've ended the session.

Server: irc.chat-solutions.org
Channel: #wuf
PM nick(so there are no questions whatsoever): wuffie

Alas, I'll probably be asleep (it's 9:30 AM out here when that'll happen) but lemme know what goes on.

Ran the letters at Cipher Clerk as a Substitution Cipher with keyword and got:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
CATCH ME IF YOU CAN FOOLS JACK

keyword: mrkrop

TY for the links etc. but clueless about the META discussion til I've have about a gallon of java. Coffee

META

OK, even if it's a little ARG crisis, we can survive it. I hope I can participate on a chat, but if not, could you people please bring the message to the PM (is a little bit META):

we can use the whole thing with MrKrop as a legend of the island. A non existing ghost etc. etc. (I mean, this small meta crisis can be avoided by us, if we declare it as it is).

And even if PM is known now (if it were so) - it doesn't matter. I personally enjoy highly this game, so curtain can be closed again and we can continue to make our experiences at the island. Because even a gamejack (if it is a gamejack) can be used in the IG mythology [it's the best way to handle with gamejacks btw. If I were Cloverfield PM I would use the Ethan Haas stuff IG, it's postmodern entertainment after all]. The WUF reporter can also handle with press manipulations etc. Smile

Anyway, I hope, I can participate, can just somebody say me please, what GMT of a chat is it? (I'm in Europe).

I think EST is 4 hours behind the UK, so I make it 7:30PM for the Brits. Most of Europe is an hour ahead of the UK as far as I remember, so it'll be 8:30PM. You may want to check that though - I don't want various angry Europeans after me because I got the time zones wrong!

ROFL@myf: More an ex-pat than an "angry European" and 3:30 EST is 9:30 PM (2130 hours) in most of Western Europe. Smile

Good job someone here knows what they're on about, as I clearly don't! Timezones always confuse me, especially around the daylight savings clock-moving faff Confused

Looks like I was wrong. The vultures are circling overhead for Nighthawk. The sniper marker is over his head in Alfie's signature now.

Alrighty then kiddies...I can't make it to chat (damn job Evil or Very Mad ) so if someone could be a love and grab the logs, I would be most appreciative. Honestly, I don't really care and I'm just having fun with this, gamejack or not.

I am in the same boat as Ziola. No Chat at work. Logs would be greatly appreciated. As for all the meta stuff, feh I am having fun being a lazy corrupt Mayor.

Tried a free IRC client on my iPhone and it does not connect to Chat Solutions. So fail for me. Sad
