No secret text in mine yet but I hope I get some soon.
I wonder if I colour code my text to orange what they would do.

And "they" replied

You are special.
stay safe
We will return to you tomorrow in this hour.

I'm guessing I'm a +1 on the waiting list. Wonder why 100kfireflies got all the tasks and all and we didn't.

Let me reread the posts, see what I'm missing.

I asked for the alternative task. If you re-read your email, do they give you the choice?

nope. nothing. the only thing they say is if I have questions on how to begin on my path, I can contact them. So I did:

I have the desire to begin on my path. What should I do?
What/where is the tower? And what is The Pristine Fiend?
Waiting for the next step.
I believe you.

And they replied:

You are special.
stay safe
We will return to you tomorrow in this hour.

Guess they've closed the office for the night Wink

Okay, folks, I need assistance. So I sent that story and received this response:

"While this does bring me happiness, it does not bring me joy. Give me a story that brings me joy.
make your cry from the tower"

The italics are the hidden message.

So I sent a second story and got this message:

"While this does bring me happiness, it does not bring me joy. Give me a story that brings me joy.
tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower tower"

What do you think the tower is????

What I recall is the man from the tower was telling us to go back, wasn't he?

Go back where? To the guy's posts? Maybe the photos of his day at the park or reserve or something will tell us what the tower is?

There's also the "notacode" from one of your emails, 100kfireflies!

So if I recall this correctly, we have (from the accented letters):

NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND
and
NOTACODE

What do we do with that?

EDIT: duh! NOT A CODE. what is not a code?
EDIT2: maybe NOT A CODE means the hidden messages? prolly

The Tower

Just emailed Will, asking him what the tower is.

And I added a hidden message too Razz asking him if he's the guy sending hidden messages.

OK. I'm playing...

My original e-mail:

Quote:

To Whom it may concern,
I received your flyer and I'd like to inquire more about your church. Specifically I'm wondering how I can find Joy, Purity and Life?

Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated!


Their reply:
Quote:


Greetings. We are sorry about your difficulties, we do not have as many representatives in as many locations as we had in the past. We can serve as your representative at the moment.




I hope that I can help you in your struggles to find enlightenment, and I know that the best joy will find you if you continue on in pursuit of our truth.





I know that there is a way to be pure again and use the gifts of the Glass Heaven that have been given to us in a just way, and if you'll join us, we can train you in these gifts.





The greatest of all is life in enlightenment. I hope and pray that you will continue to seek out enlightenment through your entire life.

make your cry from the tower


If you have any questions about how to begin on your path, please do not hesitate to write again, but understand that only you can start on this path. We cannot do it for you. You must have the desire.




Joy • Purity • Life


My reply:

Quote:

Nice to meet you.



I also hope that you can help me with my struggle to find enlightenment.


what is your truth?


How do I begin my training to receive these gifts?



I will continue to seek enlightenment through my entire life.


What tower?


I do have the desire to continue down this path. I appreciate your assistance.


Their reply:
Quote:

Is this you? You always did try to copy us.



We told you that you couldn't tell them the truth. We had to cut you off for a reason.

I tried seeing what would happen if I tried to go and earn purity first because green said they could earn us purity. This is what I got back.

Quote:
Purity is the last to gain.

I will be the first to gain. To earn joy, you must experience joy. It is the greatest happiness there is. One of the teachings we have learned is that if we remove all sources of insecurity and doubt, we can experience joy.
earn it, don't live it
Do this, and you will earn my pillar. If this is too difficult, there is an alternate task you may complete instead.


I think I'm going to see what will happen from asking what I must do to remove my insecurity and doubt.

Wow! This grew up pretty fast. I had to go through 5 pages! Pretty excited about this one. My third ARG overall.

So-- I sent my email and got the reply. No special characters or hidden text; nothing weird whatsoever. Anyway, I'm writing my reply to them now, any suggestions?

I'm thinking about sending this...

I'm not sure who you're referring to.


Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.


What was your reason for cutting this person off?

This is getting very awesome. I replied to the last email with hidden text that said: I believe you. I trust you. Can you tell me what the tower is?"
