Re: How does Josh know there has been an update on STIES?

So, once again, I am confused about this..

How is Josh supposed to know that there has been an update to the PDP11 unless he has one?
The only way to access the new badges is to have access to this terminal..
but unless Josh is like us and checking every day how would he know to look for the new .dat files? The Mystic dude didnt post any alert about an update..and Josh hasnt posted anything on his blog in almost a month..
With the Braegen and Audio files, they were posted on the desktop so we could see them..
But what alert system is being used?
And if the Mystic Dude wanted Josh to find these new files, why dosent he tell him there is new stuff for him to look at?
There is something basic missing from this area it seems..

Yep I 100% agree Melodyman.

I have to mention this again, I belive the files were posted to Josh at the time the chat took place, he states to Josh "ill share more of what i have and maybe it will help you" or maybe the commnet of Josh stating "i didnt understand what you sent before this is crazy"

Now why are we seeing these later? I still have not hashed this out fully in my own mind, but i think time has somthing to do with it. Old computer new files..etc.. will see where this leads

On May 6, when Josh asked for assistance to "authenticate something" on the ATS site, I think we've all inferred that at some point afterwords Mysterio contacted Josh, perhaps by means of a private message on that site.

Josh has not tried to lay low and go "underground"--far from it, the craigslist postings led to his HLM site where Josh had posted his e-mail address, and some here having e-mailed Josh, have received e-mails back.

As someone helped me with, perhaps it was Twodten (can't recall), a mechanism of e-mailing Josh is what we've been privy to on STIES. Whether Mysterio is e-mailing Josh at Josh's yahoo address and is then posting it on STIES (or perhaps STIES has that function that we've yet to uncover), or someone is watching and copying the whole works and posting it on STIES, who can tell. But Mysterio does have other means by which contact with Josh can be facilitated if such course is considered prudent, and we would never know what is being discussed unless Josh, Mysterio, or Another wishes.

And as you've reminded us, Jane, Mysterio's offer to "share more of what i have and maybe it will help you" may be the images of the badges, and Josh's remark "i didn't understand what you sent before. this is crazy" could very well be what has been discussed somewhere on the forum before, but Josh's question "buthow will i know it if i find it?" is the quest (and question) we keep beating our brains against the wall seeking!
