 		That gibberish ROT-21s to "thescreenisusandweretv"
Some of the stuff he was saying is strongly reminiscent of 1984

hk, maybe you should consider changing your AIM name Laughing

 		I have confirmed from an inside source that this is an indie ARG. The designers wanted to let everyone here know that there is no reason to be afraid if you get contacted via AIM or other methods. They were worried that either fear or lack of interest was affecting how many people were getting into it. They assure me that this will be an ARG that has an immersive story-line, and while the content may be odd at times, it's nothing to fear. I hope this helps generate a little interest, there are many good things to come for AVP, and you definitely want to be a part of them Smile

 		Hmmmm....sounds Matrixy to me...I like it!

But what I don't like is how these new arg's seem to rely WAY to heavily on AIM conversations and for the individuals to pass them along....

Thanks for being an outlet HKDL...and thanks for spoonfeeding us the info when the PM's decide it's feeding time...lol...

 		Just spoke to AVP3797:
Quote:

miss seph nz: I hear you are the person to talk to about reality. or not reality.
miss seph nz: And you need help
AVP3797: Hello
AVP3797: Are you from the group that sees reality but calls it something else?
miss seph nz: Yes,
miss seph nz: I would like to help you
AVP3797: I have a question though
AVP3797: Do you call it alternate reality to disguise your knowledge of true reality, or is your group not any more aware than most?
miss seph nz: We call it alternate reality to alay the fears of those that are not yet ready to know the truth.
miss seph nz: The bulk of our group are completely aware.
AVP3797: I see. I understand your tactfulness, and am glad to see that you are aware.
miss seph nz: thankyou
miss seph nz: So how can our group help you?
AVP3797: There is something that is much bigger than all of us, and we must fight it. But to fight it, we need to ally ourselves with as many people as we can that understand it.
miss seph nz: you would like me to gather a large number of our group and any others that we can find?
AVP3797: Yes, but you have to be careful who you recruit. The opposition tends to infiltrate even the most covert organizations.
AVP3797: There has to be a level of secrecy, and it will become evident just what should be said, and what shouldn't be said.
miss seph nz: who are the opposition? If I know who they are, I could perhaps know what to look for to identify an enemy, or at least, a person that has been converted to the 'other' side.
AVP3797: The opposition is the majority of the world's population. However only those in power have the knowledge to fight us.
AVP3797: Most people aren't aware, they are blind to the reality. Therefore, they aren't at odds with us, they can be given the truth, and if they are willing to accept it, they will cross over to our side.
AVP3797: Do you regard yourself as empathetic at all? or do you have the ability to see someone's real motives and read between the lines?
miss seph nz: I generally understand a person's real motives. Can usually see through people if they have a hidden agenda.
miss seph nz: Do you know who the person known as 'M T Reznor' is?
AVP3797: HOW HAVE YOU HEARD OF HIM?
miss seph nz: He messaged my friend, another aware person.
AVP3797: Good, whatever you have learned from him, take it very seriously, even though he often speaks cryptically. It is our way
miss seph nz: He is a good person then?
AVP3797: WAS a good person....so sad what happened to him
miss seph nz: what.... happened...?
AVP3797: He was taken, and he probably resisted enough for them to just take his soul.
AVP3797: He was a steadfast individual, and I'm confident that even unspeakable torture wouldn't lead him to tell them anything.
miss seph nz: Taken by whom? And to where? I take it he is of great import to our kind?
AVP3797: He was the one, along with myself, that started to inform the public.
AVP3797: He had more knowledge than even I did.
AVP3797: He left me several clues, but I haven't been able to decipher them yet.
AVP3797: It might lead to a wealth of knowledge.
miss seph nz: what clues? Me and my friends haved solved lots of clues before.
miss seph nz: we could help you solve these.
AVP3797: I am so happy to hear that. His way of informing people without the information being destroyed often involved very complex puzzles and cryptic writing.
AVP3797: Let me find the file he sent
AVP3797: Then there might be hope after all...
AVP3797: 3797, I have little time left. I leave you this because I fear they may find me soon. Our efforts have recieved unwanted attention, so it is important that I give you the key. ymjxhwjjsnxzxfsibjwjya
AVP3797: If you choose to take this further, you have to make a choice. Red Pill: rvyew3jxkrb7lbwwb9uzslx7 Blue Pill: consider me insane and forget everything I said
AVP3797: That was the note he left for me
miss seph nz: ok.
AVP3797: There must be something there
AVP3797: He also said this...
miss seph nz: ?
AVP3797: The red pill may be more than you can handle, I will pray for your countenance. Goodbye 3797
miss seph nz: is that all you have received from him?
AVP3797: I fear that Alis Volat Propriis will fail without him, but if your group is as savvy as you say, then we may be able to fight them.
AVP3797: I have recieved other things, but they were stolen from us.
AVP3797: We have a team working on getting them back right now, and their last report indicates that they may be able to return the items soon.
miss seph nz: Alis Volat Propriis - that is the name of our mission here?
AVP3797: That is the name of our organization, it has great meaning to it. Those words alone are enough to make a person aware in some instances
AVP3797: I must go now. There are others who need this secure line for a brief communication.
miss seph nz: When will we meet again?
miss seph nz: How shall I contact you when we solve the clues?
AVP3797: Thank you for offering your help, let me know if you come up with anything from Reznor's clues.
AVP3797: You can contact me here, or through email.
miss seph nz: what is your email address?
AVP3797: AlisVolatPropriisSPLATgmail.com
AVP3797: Goodbye


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Alis Volat Propriis is Latin for 'She flies with her own wings' apparently.


o.O

Edit so as not to double post -
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I tried using "ymjxhwjjsnxzxfsibjwjya " as a key to decipher rvyew3jxkrb7lbwwb9uzslx7 as a vigenere and got tjphp3nobzo7oczrj9myjpo7 as output.


thoughts?

"You must get the word out."
ymjxhwjjsnxzxfsibjwjya ROTs to (as we already know) thescreenisusandweretv
rvyew3jxkrb7lbwwb9uzslx7 (which, by the way, contains 3797, as in AVP3797) is Vigenere, with the key "thescreenisusandweretv", for "youmu3stget7thewo9rdout7," or, minus the 3797, "youmustgetthewordout"


... That's kind of a crappy red pill.
