He has a new away message:

Away Message: The tolling of the bell calls me to Meifumado, that which some might call Hell. I have drawn the veils of time and space aside, and am withdrawing beyond the illusion, albeit temporarily. Truly, the answers are hidden amongst the shadows.

I hide amongst the shadows as well.

(This is me, not the away message)

Direct or indirect link?

yx mentions the "powers that be" in his conversation with one of you.

this page: http://www.channel51.org/void.htm#

says the same thing, in " I hope by publishing these videos, I'm causing the Powers That Be to sweat many a bullet."

The same person? Or a cabal? We must find more.

good call, it was a chozo lore logbook entry:
Exodus

"We Chozo are departing now, after so many years in peaceful seclusion here on Tallon IV. When we came, this place was a refuge for our spirits, a civilization built from native materials, bereft of the trappings of our technology. We were linked to the land here, kindred to the plants and animals, far away from the machines we had become so dependant on. And so we leave it now, pristine, a testament to the mortal forms we no longer need.We have drawn the veils of time and space aside, and are withdrawing beyond the illusion. But we will never forget this, the most sacred of our homes. And we will remain ever watchful"

EDIT: moved bold tag

We (my friend and I) don't think the character of YX455 would want us sharing his conversation with anyone else. It kinda remains to be seen whether or not he actually does care though. I missed today's convo with him... but i'm not gonna miss the next one. I'll ask him then...

ok i found out something else about the strange away message:
apparently Meifumado is the "path to Buddhist hell" or the "road between heaven and hell" or something like that

this makes sense because he says he is being called to "Meifumado, that which some might call Hell".

so here's my theory:
1. the meifumado part means he is going to do something evil
2. in the chozo lore, the sentence after the one he uses says "we will never forget this, the most sacred of our homes" so maybe hes going to betray and/or leave something but not forget it
3. the "i hide among the shadows" part means hes going to hide or something until he does whatever hes going to do

Something interesting I found searching the Channel 51 site:
If you follow their link about the glasses/MP3 player, it takes you to a site about the glasses. Click "Next>>" and it takes you to a story on the Nintendo DS. Sneaky, Nintendo.

Now I'm just waiting for YX455 to come online.
I'll try turning the conversation towards her relation to Orbis Labs. Could she be working there? Spying on them?
And to gain her trust, hmm... Something that would prove that we're not the "Powers That Be..."
Maybe sending a picture of yourself could help, or starting an audio chat.

NGC is an actual naming standard for galaxies/star clusters. That half-shoots down the gamecube theory; and also gamecube is one word, not two.
