According to Saranna:

IRC chat wrote:
[20:22] <Saranna> One more thing, this is VERY IMPORTANT. He is being monitored. He doesn't know this.
[20:22] <Mensvenatus> By whom?
[20:23] <Saranna> I don't know.
...
[20:23] <ddl> Being monitored by, an enemy? Or a friend?
...
[20:23] <Saranna> I am not getting a sense of goodness or evil from those monitoring him.


If it was the Gestapo or an "enemy" I think Saranna would definitely get an evil sense. The SOE however, may not be good or evil in their purpose, they could just be watching him.

I rather like Rich Reder's idea from several pages back that we may in fact be his "monitors".

It appears to me like he is in the process of "becoming", not fully formed yet, but rather identifying with certain historical and fictional characters that mirror his present condition.

I dunno. I feel that if we were "monitoring" him we would have more access to him than just communicating with him through Twitter and e-mail.

Erin replyed to me, the twin is "Unna (one of buchenwald camps, twin town of Kirklees)"

Wow, I was so far off I should get some kind of award for being wrong. Just call me "Wrong-Way Ofiuco".

I was pretty far off as well.

Anyone know what to do now? We were supposed to gain "an understanding", and while I understand the meaning to the riddle/poem I'm not sure if I'm getting what Forest wants me to get... I sent him an e-mail about Unna, hopefully he replies with some more information.

Edit- The Reply

Forest wrote:
Maybe - we do not know, we only recall that ... alphabetically, it makes sense...


That was in response to me asking if his namesake was held in Unna. Don't have much time to work on this little piece of cryptic information, so I figured you guys should be able to figure out what he's talking about.

DDL, I'm not sure how else besides Twitter and e-mail that we might connect with FFEYT. Using Skype or some such might be too revealing on his part!

No doubt there's a good reason why there's no website for the game. He did send a package to Ofiuco at the end of Chapter 1, and I seem to recall he promised something would be sent out at the end of last week to those who solved Chapter 2's puzzles… Has anyone received anything yet?

I have yet to receive any packages as well.

Also, I figured out the alphabetical thing, on Wikipedia the sub-camps are in Alphabetical order and number 131 is Unna.

Nice. Thanks for sharing.

Re-reading the vala log it seems ambiguous (not evil or good) but I would agree the monitors are not an ememy as such.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
[20:21] <Saranna>At first his acces was limited to information contained in the computer, but his...higher brain...broke through the security, letting him into the larger internet.
[20:21] <Saranna> *access
[20:22] <XS4> That explain why he seems to possess more knowledge than any one person normally ever has.
[20:22] <Saranna> He is both part of the computer and separate from it. I don't really understand.
[20:22] <Mensvenatus> Do you think he is a person, or a computer?
[20:22] <Saranna> One more thing, this is VERY IMPORTANT. He is being monitored. He doesn't know this


I have been thinking about how he could be part of the computer... can he interface with it? Is he attached to it? Is he an AI himself, he is the computer so to speak, yet able to move around independantly like a robot?

He's not AI, according to Saranna-

Quote:
[20:23] <Saranna> He is definitely...human.


Being able to interface with it does sound like a possibility, reminds me of this:

Yeah, I had that in mind too!


EDIT
: Parcel came today. Just waiting for verification from Forest that I may share the contents. If so, I will dig out some batteries and post up pictures for y'all.
Guess I received it first since I am UK.

I still have not received my package...

Saranna put some new stuff up about Forest. It seems he sent in another card.

http://tarotbysaranna.blogspot.com/2011/04/daily-draw-x-2.html

The card is Temperance/Alchemy. Image of da Vinci's Vitruvian Man, a pentagram, possibly a bolt of lighting and some chemical bond image. Unsure of what the molecule is.

Found part of the info on the Alchemy tarot card.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Took a while, haven't done chemistry for 20 years!

C16 H21 O2 N1 (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propanolol



Also, when asked if I should share the letter from Forest I received this reply:
"every person's actions are their own..." so I am just waiting for some camera batteries to charge then I will post it up.

At first glance it seems to be 1/4 of a puzzle.

Oh! That's brilliant! Looks like Erin will be getting another 1/4, and I'll get the last half.

Propranolol seems to have a lot to do with helping headaches, and other mental issues.

As soon as I receive my parcel, I'll alert you. I am in Canada, so I was not expecting anything to arrive too quickly! Smile
