Hey guys Theta-Sigma here! Brand new to the forums and the games! Just wondering a couple of things and was looking for clarification: Are they actually sending out these samples this month? How can I get involved? Whats a special task and how do I get it? Thanks for your time in answering my noob questions.


Welcome! The story is still ramping up, so there's plenty of time to get involved and catch up.

Firstly, start by checking out the company website, http://byologyc.com/. It has great descriptions of their different products currently available, and a history of the company.

As for how to get started, and most of your other questions, everything can be addressed at the Versatile Intern Project, http://vip.byologyc.com/. Sign up and a series of Tasks will be available so they can "gather some data".

For a background look at the company, there's a webcomic-type thing going on, http://byooptic.tumblr.com/. One of the newest parts, so still not much there.

But be careful, because there are those that disagree with ByoLogyc's premise and methods. http://byoleaks.org/doku.php have been causing mischief and letting us see behind the corporate curtain.

As far as events, there's been the 20th anniversary party and their recent panel at NXNE.

Regarding the samples, I assume they're on their way to those who qualified. They asked me for my address a few weeks back.

Don't forget, most of the characters are really active on Twitter. Not necessarily plot relevant stuff, but it's fun to gossip with these people. Razz


Thanks I'll start running around reading up on these sites! And congrats on being the VIP of the month. Added question, where can I find these Twitter questions? I can't for the life of me find them.

 		Fellow VIPs, I seem to have made a purchase error, and turns out I have a ticket for the Fringe fest show on the 7th July at 7:30pm that I can't use.

I would be more than willing to give that extra ticket to someone. However there is a bit of a catch. I need to pick the tickets up in person, and I'm only going to be in Toronto from the afternoon on the 6th, and leaving at 9am on the 7th. If you're interested, and you can make time to meet me the ticket is yours. PM me so we can work out the details.

 		So, Because I am a n00b at this, Let me ask a question... is it normal/accepted to build a persona or is it preferred to just be your boring old self?

Either way is fine I personally do a mix but it is how you would like to experience and play.

 		I find it personally easier and more fun to be myself, and actually prefer ARGs that don't ask fans to 'role play' something they're not (beyond pretending the ARG is real, of course). But that's just me Smile
I'm a VIP at a biotech corp. I think that's neat Wink

 		I find it fun playing a mix but mostly personal as I do have an unusual life to begin with.

I was board so I decided to pull up one of our unanswered questions again. What is "Sample Code WINAQKT1UC"

It is probably unrelated but it is something to consider with the mention of wine a few times. Also it does have it's humor so it doesn't hurt to add it here. I was lead to this. http://www.youtube.com/user/vat19com?v=l05OuJ8GRs8

 		Received this message from ByoLeaks on the VIP website. I'm guessing that it's people within ByoLogyc running ByoLeaks instead of them having access to the messaging for VIPs.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Dear Victims, Imps, Poseurs,

perhaps you'd like take advantage of your illustrious position to ferret out a little bit of truth. you are in a unique position. after our latest incursion, our access was compromised. yours, however, was not.

the byostatic has added a new task which requires a photo upload. we've developed an exploit to take advantage of it, but it requires multiple iterations to function. we need a bunch of you to:

1) download the file at http://byoleaks.org/uploadexe.jpg
2) complete the "decomposition study" task by uploading this file

if you don't see the decomposition task, it's because you need to complete earlier tasks to unlock it. don't worry, it's all in the name of a good cause.

we'll be in touch, kids

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

 		I received the same message, but their photo link came up as 'defective' for me (or else it has since been removed). I had already done the Decomposition task anyway. Can anyone post here what the photo was?

I don't think it is a photo, actually almost certain I believe its a download file for a hack perhaps?
