I've sent an email asking for a hint, like the number of sentences we're supposed to be looking for, haven't heard back yet.


I have sent a fair few emails now.

There has been no reply's to any.

I hope you have more luck and i do hope this one has not "died" before it began.

 		I too haven't had much luck with unscrambling the words and decided to try a different approach.

Has anyone heard any more from Mantle? I decided to contact "one risen" after receiving no further responses from Mantle.

Here is the last communication I received.

I don't how you got this information! But yes, he is an AI that should be under our control. We need your help, David has not contacted me. I am afraid he has been swayed by the AI and is now on his side. What about you? Who's side are you on?

polaris Oct 15 (7 days ago)
I have yet to choose a side. Is that necessary? At this time, I seek the truth. If you can provide that then perhaps I can be of help.

 		Argh, yet again I am mentioned by name. Might shoot Mantle an email too then, to see if that moves things along.

Edit: Ooor maybe I should actually check my email.

"lost, everything, forsaken, vengeance, me, my, i,i,was, forced,mantle,and,now,take,on,those,wish,reclaim,my,me,to,who,have." There you go assemble the words you have little time left before they destroy everything i need to get this message out only you can help me now


Looks like we had too many words. Time to scramble!

 		Indeed, I've been trying and I've actually found a combination that forms logical sentences, shame they make no sense in combination:
Quote:
Everything was lost
Those who have forsaken me wish to reclaim me
And now I take my vengeance

i forced my mantle on


My best sort of sensible attempt was this:
Quote:
Mantle forced me
I lost my everything
And now I wish to take vengeance on those who have forsaken me.

Remaining words:
reclaim my was

But I can't fit the missing words in anywhere. I'll mail my attempts to him anyway.

 		Not sure this makes complete sense, but here's another possibility.

Quote:
mantle lost me

i was forced

now i wish to take my vengeance on those who have forsaken me and reclaim my everything

 		Ok guys, I think we have been focussing on the wrong thing..

the original word list was:

Quote:
was was forced forced wish wish my my everything everything i i vengeance vengeance mantle mantle and those on and purgatory i lost forsaken reclaim who have to now


The new word list is:

Quote:
lost, everything, forsaken, vengeance, me, my, i,i,was, forced,mantle,and,now,take,on,those,wish,reclaim,my,me,to,who,have


The delta between those two is:
Quote:
was forced wish everything vengeance mantle and purgatory i

with 3 new words:


Quote:
me, take, me


So can we make a sensible sentence with the following words:
Quote:
was forced wish everything vengeance mantle and purgatory I me take me


EDIT:
So far I have gotten:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
mantle and purgatory was everything
I wish vengeance
take me

This leaves only "me"

mantle and me
Everything was forced
I take vengeance
wish purgatory (would) take me (streeeeetch)

This is even harder than with the complete word list we got from him. Razz

 		I got an email from him on that query..

Quote:
i give up here is the real answer
Quote:
i lost everything i was forced to purgatory now i wish to reclaim my mantle and take vengance on those who have forsaken me


there will be consequences for this


Also a mail form Mantle:

Quote:
The fallen god is an AI created by the company that hired me, I need you to attempt to thwart all of the others who are working with him. I know you all talk to each other, we have been watching all of you. Stop them do whatever it takes, do not let the fallen one continue.


Will need to think on the next step..

any ideas?

 		Hrm, consequences. I'm not sure what we should do. The fallen one seems to have gotten slightly more aggressive over time, I'm not sure if that's a good sign. On the other hand, I'm kind of a sucker for siding with the underdog.

 		The final answer doesn't match any of our word lists. Fallen seems rather scrambled, that he might be a malfunctioning AI doesn't seem to far fetched.

Also, hate to read he gave up today and gave up the answer. I spent so much time on it today, got a semi-sensible answer to within one word with one of our lists. Oh well, at least we can move on.

 		Bah, so we've failed and apparently we need to sacrifice someone now?

New post on http://iwastherewhenitended.blogspot.nl/

I'm guessing we're supposed to side with Mantle at this point.

 		I can also do it, then again I've also got a line to Mantle (and iirc you've been ignored mostly) so it might not be a good idea. Razz

Man I sound soulless. Sad

Speaking of Mantle, gonna shoot them an email regarding the sacrifice!
