Hey, I just jumped in!

In the forum there is this post:
Quote:
I've noticed that folks have been registering with spurious names.

Those that I deem suspicious I will first try to contact the owner by email and if he/she does not respond I will delete the account.

We take ourselves and our cause very seriously and ask you to be respectful by registering with a proper name.

If this continues, I might have to close access to the articles for the volunteers.

Pacem Technical Manager


Should we all back-up or download the articles while we can?

I also asked for details on the security breach...

Three things that make themselves noticed to me:
- Sometimes the E in PACEM stands for Evolving and sometimes for Emerging (like in heading of http://www.pacemblog.org/). Possibly/probably just a mistake.
- There's a stray D at the bottom of the volunteer page on Pacemblog, here: http://www.pacemblog.org/1_4_Volunteers.html. Again, prossibly a mistake (but I would like to go on the record saying that I feel strongly against poorly proof-read ARGs, since they'll be scrutinized and sloppy mistakes can be disasterous). Hopefully it's something, though.
- The president of Darklight Interactive is friends with Thane Joie on Facebook. I don't like that at all. I like my curtains so closed and thick you wouldn't know if it's 2am or 2pm.

That being said, this seems like fun!

Anybody going to the Practical Peace:2012?

Not positive but i think me starting this post and having people sign up who didnt get the snail mail letter is causing confusion with the architechs of the ARG.
Did i make a boo boo?
Plus i just noticed my name has been added as a volunteer on the pacem site, so i am gonna shoot an email to SQN to inform them and see what happens next.

All of this has been fixed (well, apart from Darklight Interactive and I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to be fixed..), so I guess none of it was hidden clues after all Wink

I looked at the http://sqn.wikispaces.com, specifically the /translation. It appears to say the ground never actually existed.

And the "facts"
Quote:
In spite of the historical record, there is no sign of that organization ever existing. As far back as 892 A.D.



I'm not sure what to take from this. That the group is a front? Maybe for part of PACEM itself? Not sure.

OOG
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Don't look at members, you will see trueplay which I think has a bunch of other games as wikis as well.. or this game is wayyyy bigger than it seems!


OK now I'll look at the crossword... [/quote]

Okay consider me a noob and try to explain that slowly... This little game is bigger than it seems and I was one of the first to recieve a letter?
So what do we know: pacem wants peace between all religions while SQN, who has been around over 600 years, is trying to cause strife within religions?
One member who doesnt seem to be real was "killed" by sqn or so they say.
Oct 21 is the first meeting of the volunteers for pacem
And sqn has given us a crossword puzzle to work out.
What have I missed?
