 		Okay, someone told 45459 to split. Uh oh. Anyone know what was said? Anyone know where he's going? From Netspec:
Quote:
Before anything else, I'd want to ask what you guys told Kid. He left. Gone. We have no idea where he went or when. I suppose someone told him to go away or something? I don't know, but him running around would be much dangerous.

How'd you get that word "Byruniuku"? Seriously how? That word is in fact the name of the group we're trying to follow. They've been around for quite a while and when this FAILTECH company came around, they started to focus their attention to it. I don't know anything about the other word, but the Byruniukus have been in the company nearly since they started. In fact, they've been around even before the company and we've been following them long before. Seriously, where did you get that word?

And, where did you tell Kid to go?

Also FYI been in talks with Jean & Dan about Orkudusu and Byruniuku -- they are unfamiliar with the words. Debating about telling them what they mean, too much explanation is involved. I'm pretty busy today but I'll see if I can get to it.

EDIT - Also I heard back from the anonymous texter, note that the phone number has changed:

 		Oh crap! That's just great. It wasn't me! I told them to sit tight.

 		I wish there was some way to give these characters a test to see if they are Afyg or not. I guess we could send every single character an email that just says, "I am the Jhuku! If you want me, come and get me!" I sent emails to 45459 and the NetSpec. I'm trying to find out if we can trust the NetSpec. He could be our feet on the ground so to speak if he can be trusted. What do you guys think?

 		I told Jhuku to bail, just to see his hosts reactions. So far, I got the information I wanted. I hope no one is mad at me.

Also, I've been texting the Afyg on that new number... let's see where this goes.

 		It's fine, punxtr. So what do you think? I think Netspec's ok, not really seeing the alarm bells go off in my head when reading his emails. But I honestly don't know who to trust at this point. Haven't seen a "bad" Afyg so I can't guess what their personality is like.

If you ask me, I think the anonymous texter is Byruniuku -- pretty sure he's an Afyg, but he insists he's not the one behind the recent disasters. However, he really really wants to find 45459...

 		Try asking the anonymous texter if he know Genus... or suppose even the guys who got 45459...

 		Well, here is the reply from the NetSpec...
Quote:
Sure whatever. Since I already let it out anyways, I hope we can work things out together symbioticly.

Ok, the Byruniukus has been tis group of people whom, as far as we know, have banded together since way back in the past, like I said, like the illuminati but not the illuminati. Anyways, We still have to figure out what their main goal is. I and my teammates work for an international organization that mostly profits out of selling information in and out of someone or a company. And then our organization encoutered the Byruniukus so the organization was lead to believe that they have something that we should have. An information that is so big we just have to know.

That's basically who we are. People of information, like messengers, except we make profit out of it. Now, that sounds wrong. Always is. However, that was in the past, recently the entire organization has devoted itself to trackdown these Byruniuku. They're hard to spot and quite good in blending it with other people, however, one of the most noticeable obective they have is to infiltrate FAILTECH, at that was like since FAILTECH has started.

If you ask me, there's something about this group of people and this company that makes things quite unworldly. It's like there's this relationship between them. They don't exactly work together but it's like the company benefits from the group the same way that the group benifits from the company. They are like two inseperable entities.

It's quite hard to explain, however, our objective has always been figuringout what kind of information this group has. We know they know something. And information makes our organization run. As long there's something hidden needed to be figured out, we will try to get to it.

Ok, your turn, anything you know that might help? Also, any ideas where Kid could have gone? I know we sound bad and all wrong that he shouldn't go along with us, but trust me if he's that important it's better he's with us that anyone else. Especially now that we're trying to work together on this thing and we have this common goal about the Byruniuku.

It sounds to me like these people don't have any idea what is really going on. Do you guys think we can trust them?

I'm on the fence for sure. I'm leaning toward trusting them, but I want this to be a group decision.

 		Maybe just keep the ball rolling, and I do think would be ok if 45459's with them for now... Seems like they really have no idea what 45459 is for. Maybe let's just not give them too much information for now and make them give out more information.

 		Yeah, I think the same thing zeighy. I don't want to show all my cards too soon. I may give them just enough to get them to help, but not enough to tip them off in case they are crooked.

 		I accidentally deleted some of my messages with the texter, but here are the recent ones:

 		So Netspec may have found a hypothetical way to track 45459:
Quote:
Any news about kid? I am worried, I don't think he safe out there with his abilities disabled. I won't mind him running around town to town if he had his abilities, I bet he can handle himself well. But as a regular human who doesn't even know who he is? I don't think so.

Anyways, we were able to extract some data from the nano-particles kid had. Of course, some of the data were scrambled and we had to reassemble it and make sense of it. We are able to find a ID number in the data, which maybe of help to you. We all know FAILTECH can trackdown EVERYONE who works for them using their ID tag. And each ID tag has their own number. Using this number, you can query the location of the person. Now, Kid's case is different. His nano-particles had an ID number in them, which is unusual and the first time we encountered such. FAILTECH had never added ID numbers to the data in their nano-particles.

My point is, if kid has an ID number, it should mean that we "theoretically" should be able to track him. However, this still needs to be proven as we don't think nano-particles have enough signal strength to broadcast a location signal strong enough to be picked up by long range sensors. However, since you did state that kid is important for FAILTECH and that he might attract some attention, we haven't sent the number, yet, to our friends inside FAILTECH to try and see if LAINSY can track him down. Besides, LAINSY right now is unresponsive to everyone so if we did send the number over, it would be of no use right now.

Are you interested in the number? Might come in handy for you since kid is of such importance for you guys. I don't know for us, but we're just trying to be good guys for Kid.
I've asked for the number, it could be useful further down the line. I hope the Kid can still contact us.

 		I did too. Here is what he sent me...
Quote:
45459 Which is a weird ID number since it's only 5 digits. Employee ID numbers are usually 6 digits. I hope you have some use for it, because for us it's useless right now until LAINSY is ready for queries. Also, we're still trying to piece together some of the other data we were able to get. Of course if did get into a facility, much more thorough inspection can be done. But right now, only the freely available data is what we got. If we get to piece something else together, I'll tell you.

I told him thanks, but we already know that. And we can't get any info out of Lainsy about him right now anyway.

Edit: I also asked him about Genus. He only knew what we already know about him.

 		I got an email from Daniel...

Ok, so seems like we're up to something. We've initiated a reboot, and we'll take over the boot process to uncover some data. Basically while we do this, LAINSY will be offline and only be accessible physically. Might take a while, after this she should be back to normal and we'll have some valuable data.

 		Here is an email from Ryan Bruno. I'm away from the computer right now. Maybe you guys can work on this some.

While the board is busy with their stuff, Daniel told me to pass over this chunk of data we have recovered from LAINSY. We tried our best, and we ended up with garbage. Maybe you can take a look and work on it. We know it has something.
