Yes, I suppose this applet is out of date, I hope somebody from Unfiction admins could update it. Otherwise you always can open every webbased (or standalone) irc client and enter

Yeah... I've been stuck on the Gary Mitchell bandwagon for a while now... Thought for sure that Alice Eve was going to be Dehner based on the haircut alone, but oh well.


Even Dr Carol Marcus could have a link to Gary Mitchell, if you use your imagination. Take this conversation between Kirk and Mitchell from "Where No Man Has Gone Before":

Mitchell: The first thing I ever heard was "watch out for Lt Kirk! In his class you either think or sink."
Kirk: I wasn't that bad was I?
Mitchell: If I hadn't aimed that little blonde lab technician at you...
Kirk: You what? You... you planned that?
Mitchell: Well you wanted me to think, didn't you? I outlined her whole campaign for her.
Kirk: I almost married her!

Yeah, that's why I still haven't given up on the theory altogether.

Also I'm just assuming that the next time we're going to hear something is January 17th because that's 01/17 (or 17/01)

I had the same thought with the date! Also it's close to the 18th , the cloverfield beginning.

Yes, people, both things sound really reasonable...
Alas...

IRC, the final frontier...
These are the voyages of the website unFiction.com, its ongoing mission to seek out ARGs and virals and puzzle trails - to boldy go nuts like no fan has gone nuts before...*

For Mac friendly, dedicated IRC clients:
X-Chat Aqua (open source, free, a bit old, still works)
Textual (no longer free, trial version available, fairly well maintained)
Colloquy

For Windows, in the 'not mIRC' world:
ChatZilla (addon for Mozilla Gecko products like Firefox or Thunderbird, free, open source)
HexChat (open source, free)

Oh, and yes - I signed up on the site. Live drops/events in Oregon, please. Very Happy

*When Trek fans are involved, that's a tall order.

OK, now sorry for doublepost, and perhaps this is one of my most useless posts ever, but I've got some spam-alike comment from somebody "Anonymous" to my blog about Star Trek ARG.

The text looks pretty well as spam, especially because of second part of the message. Strangely, I am clueless about the first part, since, well, here it is:

Code:
Digital mitosis, my friend. IT is such a wonderful THING. Merge: 4x3_101+7 and she is on you.
[.:)^(:.]


Looking for "Digital Mitosis" I found some art-science-esperiments
http://www.bryanwaddell.com/2012/11/10/in-process-digital-mitosis/
etc. (Surely, fully out of game)

It may be:
1) Spam
2) somebody is making some fun commenting my blog
or 3) hint?
(Even if there is a rule of the non-penetration of realities for PMs)

(Lack of updates let me see a hint everywhere, hehe)

Hmm, at first I thought those pictures were just compression issues.
I'm not sure now though.

It could be someone messing with us... most likely.
Just in case it is a hint, any ideas what 4x3_101+7 could mean? 4x3 could be the circles 4 across and 3 down?

Is there any way of checking the IP of the poster on your blog?

So I asked @boborci about the whole "Digital mitosis" thing as a joke, and he replied...not really sure what to think about this:

Does the term "digital mitosis" mean anything to you?" no. should it?

I'd hazard a guess that 108/12 being nine is a funny way of saying "No" in German rather than anything ingame.

Of course it could be an episode reference relating to either TOS episode "The Enterprise Incident" or TNG episode "Brothers"

But unless it's posted with a link to a web page I'd take it as being OOG.
