What do I say to that?

[TheLurker]

Well, from text-adventures I'd say the answers are obvious:

Inventory

1| 1. INT. OFFICE. AFTERNOON

2/1&2| : STANLEY CULPA' proclaims a nameplate, lying along the front of an office desk, beside a monitor screen and computer keyboard. A frail old man, STANLEY, sits leaning towards the screen from a leather chair, his eyelids sagged in a bored expression.

3| Framed awards for 'Employee of the Month' and '20 Years of Service' hang on the concrete wall behind Stanley's bald head.

4/1&2&3| The old-timer's gaze slowly drifts from the Solitaire game on his screen to the adjacent room, visible through a large glass pane. In the centre of this dim adjoining chamber, an empty electric chair waits, with thick cables running from its base, through the wall of Stanley's office, into his computer.

5/1&2&3| Opposite Stanley, the handle of the iron door leading into the execution chamber rattles. The door slams open, and Stanley straightens up with a jolt. Uniformed prison guards drag a stony-faced man into the chamber and begin strapping him to the electric chair.

6/1&2| Stanley watches the task from his office in silence, until a BEARDED GUARD draws a red curtain closed, covering the glass window between the two rooms. Text flashes on Stanley's monitor screen:

7| INMATE #162315.

8| CRIME: MASS MURDER.

9/1&2| Stanley pushes the 'execute' button on his keyboard without hesitation. Muffled screams echo through Stanley's of fice as the lights flicker for a few brief seconds. Maintaining a poker face, Stanley returns to his game of Solitaire.

10|

11| 2. INT. DINING ROOM. EVENING

12/1&2| Stanley sits alone at the end of a long table in an ornately decorated dining room. Harpsichord music plays softly. A suited BUTLER enters, places a roast dinner before Stanley, and hands him a newspaper. Stanley reads the headlines:

13| CAPITAL PUNISHMENT SUPPORT GROWING IN EFFORT TO REDUCE PRISON OVERCROWDING. PRISONS TO SAVE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ANNUALLY.

14| BUTLER

15| The warden called about another pay rise for you, Sir.

16| Stanley smiles and starts carving his meal.

17|

18| 3. INT. OFFICE. MORNING

19/1&2| Stanley arrives at his office's ebony door, to find the prison guards already waiting in the next room, with an inmate sitting in the electric chair. The prisoner stares Stanley down, tapping an imaginary wristwatch impatiently.

20| BEARDED GUARD

21|(shouting through the glass)

22|Where've you been? They're piling up!

23/1&2| The guard pulls the red curtain closed before Stanley has a chance to reply. Looking slightly shocked, Stanley swiftly executes the inmate for 'TERRORISM'.

24|MONTAGE BEGINS (WITH SHOTS AND SOUND EFFECTS GRADUALLY INCREASING IN SPEED, BECOMING RHYTHMIC)

25| -The guards bring in a new prisoner and strap them down.

26| -The bearded guard pulls the curtain closed.

27| -Stanley glances at the inmate's crime on his screen.

28| -Stanley pushes the 'execute' button.

29| -Muffled screams, lights flickering.

30| -Repeat.

31/0&1&2| (This sequence repeats several times, getting faster and faster, with the new inmates' on-screen crimes appearing in the following order: ARMED ROBBERY, ASSAULT, DRUG TRAFFICKING, FRAUD, TRESPASSING, EXCEEDING THE SPEED LIMIT, GRAFFITI, PUBLIC URINATION, PARKING OFFENCE, CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT A PARKING OFFENCE.)

32|MONTAGE ENDS (ABRUPTLY, WITH THE SOUND OF SCREAMS ECHOING INTO THE NEXT SCENE)

33|CUT TO:

34|

35| 4. INT. LIMOUSINE (DRIVING). MORNING

36/1&2|Stanley sits in the back seat of a black limousine, with his head in his hands. He looks up (AS THE SCREAMS FADE AWAY) and peers out the car window at a passing billboard. 'SAVING FOR YOUR RETIREMENT?' it asks, accompanied by a photograph of an old

37/1&2|Stanley's now-gloved butler, acting as chauffeur in the front seat, smiles at him via the rear-view mirror. Stanley forces a weary smile in return.

38|

39| 5 EXT. ROAD OUTSIDE PRISON. MORNING

40/1&2| The limo pulls up to the roadside opposite the prison. Stanley steps out onto the pavement, grasping a cane. He watches the vehicle drive up to a red traffic light, beside a waiting police car.

41/1&2&3| Stanley looks down the road to the crosswalk, then to the flimsy cane supporting him. Then he looks over to the prison. Stanley grins determinedly and struts across the middle of the road. Reaching the other side, at the gates of the prison, Stanley spots a street sign:

42| JAYWALKING STRICTLY PROHIBITED ON PENALTY OF DEATH.

43/1&2| Stanley glances around worriedly, to notice two police officers emerging from their car, approaching him. Stanley drops his cane and raises his shaking arms above his head.

44| 6. INT. PRISON CORRIDOR. EVENING

45/1&2| Now wearing a bright orange prison jumpsuit, Stanley is being dragged down a narrow corridor in chains, by the same guards that were yesterday his co-workers.

46| BEARDED GUARD

47/0&1&2| You're the last person I'd have expected to endanger lives like that (SHAKING HIS HEAD). We'll be hard-pressed to find a replacement for you. But hey, on the bright side, you won't have to worry about any hard labour, (CHUCKLES) just one last job, and you're good at it. Special warden's orders...
[/quote]
48/1&2&3|A confused expression twitches across Stanley's face. He and the guards arrive outside the ebony door that yesterday led to his office. The bearded guard unlocks the door, and Stanley gasps. The door swings open, revealing that the comfortable leather chair at his desk has been replaced by an electric one.

49|

50|7. INT. OFFICE. EVENING

53|CRIME: JAYWALKING.

56| (sternly)

57| Go on. Do your job.

58| Stanley slowly hovers his hand above the 'execute' button. He closes his eyes.

59| CUT TO BLACK.

QUANTITATIVE METRES EXCEED IAMBIC FEET

ENTER CALL SIGN (8 char. max):
ENTER DIRECTION (N, E, S, W, NE, NW, SE or SW):

Quantitative measures and iambic feet? Poetry now? Or was that some sort of Shakespeare-style joke?

Okay, call sign...like a radio call sign? CGPM? Is that a call sign?

Twitter says AMNA-A ACTIVE again. Someone able to record might want to tune into that, though we didn't sort out the meaning of the last one.

We've also learned that Stanley is inmate #162407.

[onearmedscissor]

Hey guys, new here, but I've been lurking for a bit. I've been listening to the AMNA-A stream for a while. Unfortunately, no recording, but it has been going on for about a half hour or so since I accessed it. It was a femal computer voice deacribing part of the story of sid, where his parents forced him outside into a hole and only fed him bread. He came out and went to his parents and asked for forgiveness, I think, and his parents forgave him for whatever it was he did wrong. Then some classical music played, the femal voice came back a few minutes later, rattled off a long line of code, followed by a male voice Naming off what sounded like directions. That pattern (not necessarily the exact same code and directions) repeated a few times, followed by more classical music. The female voice came back with what I guess was a poem, followed by that strange repeating tone you heard in the Kanye Quest 3030 hidden level. After the tone repeated a minute or so, with a little bit of the distorted voice you also may have heard in the hidden level, the classical music played again. My memory gets hazy because this is my second draft of this (laptop burned out on me - it's a POS and will do that), but the "I am a real person" clip from earlier in this thread also made an appearance, repeatedly, for maybe two minutes. The last 10-15 minutes have just been classical-type music.

[onearmedscissor]

The woman came back with a story about how she thought about leaking info online, but it didn't have any direct references to ascending or anything like what you've all been discussing, but I'm tired, so I could be forgetting details. After a few minutes of that story, it went back to classical-type music, but this sounds very frantic in pace. I really hope someone is recording this.

[onearmedscissor]

The classical-type music kinda sounds like what Ascension Records put out under Nick Lyons on Youtube, but I can't confirm that's what's playing during every interlude. It might be, though.

[onearmedscissor]

Now it's back to the female computer voice talking about pushing a boulder up a hill and struggling, which I heard when I first accessed the stream. It might be an hour-long loop.

[onearmedscissor]

Sid's mom caught him trying to mail her car keys and his dad caught him trying to take stuff out of his wallet. Sid's parents forced him to dig his own hole. Sid kept digging a hole and filling it back in for days, then knocked on his parents door. Sid said "I'm sorry," and the parents welcomed him back, with Sid learning the lesson that it's always better to apologize than to keep digging holes. A few bell tolls and we're back to the code. I'm going to bed, again, I hope someone is recording this.
