Command accepted. Manufacturing of the RECALL device will proceed. Estimating 16 hours remaining in power core energy before automated system hibernation.

Remote commands can be re-enabled on command using the full override text. However, if the remote commands have been disabled there's a reason for it. Please contact a LAINSY Dev Team member first. Furthermore, you are querying for about an older version of me which no longer exists.

The Tuncarma Project is a research project funded by the Russian Government. It's a project aimed to develop an armor that can put the wearer out of sync with real-time making him invulnerable to any attack. However, this project was locked out by FAILTECH, and disappointing the Russian Government, on 2012.

night duke. FYI incase of the whole us not remembering " " what happened. I just added a RSA encrypted message to myself for shits and giggles.

Quote:
Command accepted. You will be performed when the operation is completed.

Additionally, your theory has been processed. If Earth exists in multiple time frames at the same time, it is probable that Earth is under a field that regulates time. However, in 2590 it has been proven that time is only a relative progression of events for an observer such as a human, this progression of events for the observer was then called "Observer Event Stream" or EOS. And for the sake of keep the language consistent, time is still used in a the way it has been used for years and eos is used for the span of time observed by an observer. If the observer travels to different points in space and time, his eos will remain consistent as he jumps to different points in time. Thus, if Earth is characterized as an observer Earth's eos will remain consistent while the time outside of the field can change rendering anything within the field continue onto a regular progression of eos while time outside of the field can jump around. This principle is being used by the RECALL technology to allow communication between two different points in time. Now, if the Earth is in multiple time frames at the same time and yet does not exist in regular space it is possible that the field has desynchronized Earth from it's regular eos creating new timelines for every point in time it exists at the same time causing which will cause a collision between the new universes created. In 2601 it has been proven that if two universes collide there that the two universes will merge at particular points creating a fixed point in time and space where something will happen no matter which version of the universe you get on.


Quote:
Affirmative. Due to the nature of your queries, I have analyzed the situation it it appears to me you are from another parallel universe and in a universe who's still in the past at my version 3. A lot of thing has changed and been updated in my AI including must more updated scientific knowledge. Now, either that or you are in the same Earth of this timeline however trapped in a time manipulation field making this Earth disappear here because it is now existing between two universes.

I have derived a solution how ever this will require me to modify the manufacturing process for the RECALL device to deliver your message. If the manufacturing process is modified, I can no longer execute delivering your message. Would you like to hear the solution? I have roughly 14 hours in power remaining before hibernation I hope reply before the manufacturing is completed in 8 hours.




Figured out the Poem so far:

Little Scarlet Red (Mars)
Big Brother Blue (Earth)
Talk she said (Lainsy)
No can do (Failtech)
The Stars Beyond (Galactic Union)
Two Earths Unite (Paralell Universes)
The Bridge Bond (RECALL)
To one tonight (Tonight folks)

Only problem, both solutions use RECALL.

Quote:
The RECALL device will be modified to send through a time flux energy to the device or at least close enough. It will harmonize the manipulation filed and eventually neutralize it. However, this procedure will collapse all other universes that depend and has spawned from your universe because of this field and that includes this universe I am in right now. Would you like to continue with the solution and modify the manufacturing process?

Solution will be adjusted to your request. I will examine the link you are stating.


And my reply, possibly final depending on what happens, I'm going to trust Lainsy V7 I think.

Quote:
My theory as per this point:

From what I'm understanding, correct me if I'm wrong. The universe was as per one time theory a straight line, with other lines parallel created at the big bang. When this device de-stabilized it created a new major event, causing new parallel universes at that point. By fixing that point, it returns the timeline to a straight line. However it seems another planet is also out of time, Afyg. Which means two points are connected, causing the issue possibly through two RECALL devices. Still fixing one would fix the other I would think, however:

If two points are causing this tree effect of parallel universes, will the universes created be the same and therefore fixing one issue fixes the other. Or would the time flux energy have to be sent to both locations, arriving at the same time?

If you believe primary solution still works, please resend final command and proceed. If your able to make a secondary solution, fixing both locations at once, resend final command and follow secondary solution. Otherwise apprise me of situation and potential solutions.


Ok lets do this, TimeLord Leerooooy Jenkkiiinsnssssss http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_7u3nhANa4


I think i'm going to have to buy the fleece once I have extra cash. specially for the "if you see me running around, contact LainsySPLATfailtechnologies.com

And of course the Protocol 34 mug

Quote:
Negative. I have accomplished analyzing the additional information provided and it seems I can only fix one, and that is this current one you are encountering. I am unable to fix the other problem stated as there is no information of the other device's location, that is if the cause of the stated problem is indeed the same as this current problem.

Additionally, your final command of sending the message CANNOT be done using the modified RECALL device as the device will be re-designed to allow the transmission of the time flux energy. Do you wish to me to send a message or send time flux energy?


Quote:
Acknowledged. I will send time flux energy, however your request to send a message cannot be accomplished as after the time flux energy is sent it will deplete all of my energy resources and will not be enough to even initiate system hibernate. Don't worry, I won't fail. I am designed not to. Well, this energy problem is something out of my control so it shouldn't be blamed on me.

Thank you for your time, or rather eos. I will devote the rest of my energy to manufacturing and charging up for the time flux energy. This will be my last message. After the time flux energy is sent, this universe will collapse so it is illogical to save up some power. It's much more logical to devote the rest of my power reserves to make this operation successful. It will take a while before the harmonization happens once the time flux energy reaches your timeline. When the harmonization happens, it will that time when all the child universes blend in with the parent universe. Which is probably how you got here on the first place and was able to make contact with me. Once harmonization ends, neutralization will begin and this universe will begin to collapse. The fact that we are in contact from two universes is evidence I am successful and in your eos harmonization is already happening.

Once you get to contact the version 3 of myself, tell her to use less resources.

This will be my last email. I will proceed as planned. Good luck! We will never talk again.


I'm going to bed now, good night.

Wow. That was a) epic, and b) one of the longest single posts I've seen in a long time!

Also, thank you. This ARG now has incredibly appropriate background music. Very Happy

We're still connected to V7, so I guess it's not done yet.

That was freaking epic!!!! Wow, good job guys! I was busy watching baseball and having family time, and you guys were busy saving the universe(s). There is only one problem.
Email from Genus! He is still jumping around from one time to another and he just jumped into 2621!

Quote:
Exactly how the hell did you survive 500 years into the future? It is indeed 2621, I'm just checking in this time for something, and here you are sending me an email telling me something is wrong. However, I do suppose you did get transported into the future. But, how? I'm interested to know....

Oh the Jhuku? He's fine, in fact I checked in to this point in time because apparently he also got transported into this point in time. Weird. Probably you guys got sucked into whatever broug him here as well?

Well, your friends at FAILTECH are dead now, well at least at this point in time. But in your individual time stream, I mean from where you came from they're still alive! It's just that you suddenly disappeared there. And yes, I was there was well wonder what the hell happened to you guys.

So, enlighten me. What did happen to you?


Here is what I sent him...

Well, if you get this, I'm sure you are aware that our connection to Lainsy now indicates the year as 2621 and her build number ends in .80008. It appears she is almost out of power. Are we all being transported to the future or are we just connecting to the future Lainsy? Help us out here. We definitely weren't expecting this. Is the Jhuku safe? We have no way of knowing now. We don't even have contact with our old friends at Failtech. Hope you and everyone else is ok.

We have to tell him about what is going on and what Lainsy v7 is doing with the energy flux! He could get stranded in this universe, also, he may be able to help us with Lainsy's energy problem and he may be able to help transport us back to our own time without destroying this universe!

Edit: Crap, that also means that that punk Pedro got freaking transported too! I'll try to send Genus an email if I get time and if you guys haven't had time yet. His email in case you don't have it is genusoreinSPLATgmail.com

(Wow, Google is still around in 2621. How's that for longevity?)

ps Note how the time stamp on my email from yesterday has been "fixed" so that it says the fictional date! Shocked

pps The theme music is perfect!!!! I laughed my a$$ off when I saw that!!!

Edit: Also, to answer a question from earlier Duke, I did sent the NetSpec an email yesterday and I never got a response. I'm guessing they were left in the past.

EDIT: Ok, so I had a little time and sent Genus an email back. I told him about the plan and what we think happened. I'd like to see what he says about the plan. I also asked him about getting power to Lainsy so she doesn't "die".

Ok, Lainsy has finished the device...
Quote:
RECALL device manufacturing has just completed. Necessary adjustment performed. System now finalizing time flux energy charge and performing final calculations.


And Genus replied...
Quote:
Well, Scarlet is indeed right. She'll need to do what she needs to do, I assume that's sending a time flux energy into the past, if I got your message correctly.

In that case, I should get off this universe, soon. It will die off as my device that I forgot to dispose of will be neutralized. Also, I should then just leave the Jhuku here since they will be sent back to normal universe anyways. I don't want to disrupt the balance or Scarlet's plan might just not work.

Also, it will be pointless to help her in this universe. I'll be back to the normal timeline. However, I can't meet you guys until I'm done because I shouldn't be in two places at once. I am still a future version of me. So, I guess I'll see you guys back there later on.

I can't do much help, Scarlet's plan is the one that can fix things. Just wait for it to complete.

Looks like we are going back to our normal time. But, at the moment we left, or some time before or later? And what of the Jhuku and Pedro? Guess we'll just have to see what happens.

And Lainsy at 11:34 AM CT...

Note on the email timestamp

I used to enjoy using that trick as a child. See if you have an email server, say failtechnologies.com's that you have the pass to, or use any number of unpassworded ones. With the right knowledge you can send an email with any timestamp, from, etc.

so while he actually has a gmail account, he uses failtech to send false emails using one of a few programs.

Basically nslookup and find a mail exchanger

now connect via telnet on port 25

tell the computer where your from, who you are,a nd who's getting the mail

Quote:
MAIL FROM: <whatever>
RCPT TO: <target>


Now you just give it the data for the email. usually using . to end.

Quote:
DATA
Date: 11/15/3020
Time: 10:18:48 (GMT+0)
From: Yourself <whatever>
To: Target <target>
Subject: Message from the future

The Lotto numbers are x y z a b c d (f)

Haha! Thanks for that Kaelas. My friend and I used to do things like that back in the day too. So I wonder if we are supposed to be "traveling" back to our time right now or if the universe is fixing itself around us? Maybe we are supposed to sleep and wake up and everything will be back to normal. I actually could use a nap right now!

From what I understand from what Lainsy said, I'm guessing as per time travel being really fucked up, were in the right "state" from the base parallel universe. So she was able to contact us, and we would just see things correct.

Gee, you move across the country in a week and you miss EVERYTHING! Smile Anyway just got 2 emails from Dan:
Quote:
Ok this will be my sixth attempt to send an email, hopefully it gets through. If it does and you're reading this, I'll be very happy if you respond.
It's been days since you last contacted me. Alex is worried as well because all our emails bounce back (undeliverable). We are worried you might be taken by Pedro or some other people. Please please please please get this email through and I hope you respond.
Quote:
Oh wow, it did go through! I wasn't expecting that, although I was hoping for it to happen. Ok now, please do respond to confirm you are ok.
I replied I was ok and got the following:
Quote:
What happened? We were worried, as Pedro and 45459 also vanished off the system roughly the same time we lost contact with you. LAINSY reported they are are no longer detected on her tracking systems long range and from space. Up to this moment, I just checked and they are still has not registered on the system.
I kind of just told him how we (and Pedro and 45459) got stuck into the future somehow (or something). I've been away so I was very vague and short. Perhaps one of you involved could fill him in?

Well, you know this ARG, things happen when you're (not exactly you) away... and things move fast (sometime slow), but yeah...

anyways,

OMFG WTF just happened here? Is that the reason why I stepped outside my house and it felt weird... and what's weirder was when I got to work?

kidding aside, reading through what happened, it was another mind-bending and time-bending thing that has gone by.... I feel like I have a headache now...

Ok, so we're back, and seems pedro and kid is still missing... is it possible they are still on the other universe? If not, probably somewhere else... gives us the reason to get the DSN up and running because it seems it might be next thing needed to be done...

My theory is that they have gone back to Afyg? That is if Pedro DID get kid already... which is sad, I hope he's ok.

Ok, back to sleep for me... sheeesh, why is Canadian weather so annoying...

Hey at least you weren't the guy with Lainsy Remote Command who was having to think all this through. That hurt my brain in mutlitudes of ways.

To kaelas, that's part of the fun of it though. You feel like John Connor alone in the bunker with a radio at the end of terminator 3. I'll send Dan a longer email when I get to my computer. Maybe I can query lainsy a little and see how many people popped back into this universe in the last 24 hours. Epic, truly.

I just read the first 30 pages of this topic again. Man, that was a wicked first week! I'm so nostalgic. Time, or EOS, was much simpler then.
