I can't come.

**MxO-Insertion**

Has Algorithm Black concluded?

**GypsyJuggler**

No, there's maybe a week left. They've been taking a little break over Thanksgiving.

**LtCmdr_Tsusai**

Had to use a secondary account to see some of the ending, but if the last half of the ending was as good as the first half, I think it kicked *CENSORED*.

**Valeth**

Amazing work guys, loved the event.

Salughtering Bluepills FTW!!

**Asa**

According to the event forums the QA thingy on XFire tonight has been moved an hour back. So, 6 MCT now.

**MatrixRefugee**

I wound up being a bit late for the event, and I somehow couldnt' get the radio to work in-game.... but the ending was incredibly suspenseful. I have to admit, my heart was pounding in my throat for real when the Bluepill reporter died in my arms of heat exhaustion. GREAT work!

One question, are you going to post an event run-down/timeline sort of thing, the way the LET used to in the Monolith days? I wasn't a player yet back in that time, but I loved that feature, since it helped me keep up to speed with what was going on.

[20:02] Jack's Wasted Life: Evening A:B Team
[20:02] The Great Wyrm: Patience is a virture...
[20:02] [A:B] Video: I have a question for you lot.
[20:02] Chainer: Heya, Im here! lol
[20:02] [DA] Tranque: Heh
[20:02] Fox: :O
[20:02] [A:B] Nemo: Evening.
[20:02] {DA} LinksLife: Someone is impatienent... Hehehe
[20:02] [A:B] Zero Sum: Alright, everyone. First thing's first... this event probably meant a lot more to the team than it did to anyone who played it, but you guys made it all worth it. So we'd like to thank you.
[20:02] Chainer: The thanks go to you guys who gave MxO meaning again!
[20:02] [A:B] Control: *bows*
[20:02] Fox: I'll accept thanks in the form of checks SMILEY
[20:02] * {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon blushes as red as her Demon Army Coat
[20:02] Machete: no thank you
[20:02] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: No, thank *YOU* folks.
[20:02] [A:B] Deceit: Except me. I'm just that ungrateful.
[20:02] Chloe: It was a pleasure!
[20:02] * [DA] Tranque starts a round of applause
[20:03] Machete: you guys did an EXCEPTIONAL job
[20:03] Reeverb: ./thewave
[20:03] * Fox applauds team
[20:03] * {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon joins the applause
[20:03] The Great Wyrm: Beyond exceptional.
[20:03] * Fox does the wave
[20:03] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Indubitably.
[20:03] Machete: heheh
[20:03] barloke: *applauds team *!
[20:03] [A:B] Zero Sum: Alright... Video, you said you had a question for the players?
[20:03] {DA} LinksLife: I think you guys should be the one getting the thank you's You all did something that no one has done before, and you pulled it off amazingly well.
[20:03] Mercio / JonBoy: Yeah you guys did a great job. =)
[20:03] [A:B] Video: Well my question kind of went along the lines of your statment. Did you enjoy the event?
[20:03] Jack's Wasted Life: For bringing effort outside the game. As well as within the game. You have opened eyes- raised spirits and made people turn heads and just wonder.
[20:03] Fox: Yessir
[20:03] [DA] Tranque: Of course
[20:04] {DA} LinksLife: For sure!
[20:04] The Great Wyrm: Absolutely.
[20:04] Chainer: Ditto!
[20:04] Machete: Very much so!
[20:04] barloke: absolutely
[20:04] [DA] Tranque: Thats pretty obvious, or we would be angrily looting and TP-ing your homes.
[20:04] Chloe: The event was awesome
[20:04] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Utterly enjoyed it!
[20:04] Fox: This is how I've been explaining it:
[20:04] Fox: It was REALLY interesting because i actually had to think about my actions. Like, should I maintain my cover and protect the bluepills while supporting Regulator, or protect the bluepills in the name of saving innocents, or kill them to get the codes in order to stop the Algorithm. It was really well planned, actually created some tension which is something i havent felt in an event since the End of Beta event
[20:04] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Best two months I've had in MxO in a while.
[20:04] [DA] Tranque: Mhm
[20:04] The Great Wyrm: There were, as expected, some rough spots in some minor ways as far as execution went, but it was at least as good as anything I have _ever_ seen done.
[20:04] [A:B] Deceit: Loving those lies and tricks of ours, eh?
[20:04] [A:B] Control: Planned?
[20:05] Machete: yes
[20:05] Fox: Haha
[20:05] Chainer: its restarted the RP community! Its given life to something I thought was dead.
[20:05] [A:B] Control: There was a script?
[20:05] [A:B] Zero Sum: Alright then... looks like Tranque is the first person in line to get to ask a question to the team. Tranque?
[20:05] [A:B] Sagramore: Yes the one we ignored
[20:05] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: wait isn't it links?
[20:05] [DA] Tranque: Mistress Sophia/Cecilia = Explain.
[20:06] [A:B] Deceit: Cecilia...hmm...
[20:06] [A:B] Timecode: I think Zero Sum should get this one
[20:06] [DA] Tranque: Oh, I didnt know she was in-game
[20:06] Fox: She was the dominatrix in emails i think
[20:06] [DA] Tranque: Yeah
[20:06] [A:B] Zero Sum: I'll handle this one.
[20:06] [DA] Tranque: Heh
[20:06] [A:B] Deceit: Go for it.
[20:07] [A:B] Zero Sum: Every good story needs extras. People to flesh out the story just a little... and good red herrings if we're looking at a mystery.
[20:07] [DA] Tranque: Hm.. I never heard actually what happened with her due to recursioniteness.
[20:07] [A:B] Zero Sum: That was who Mistress Sophia was. A Merovingian operative, and someone Everette/Escroc knew...
[20:08] [A:B] Zero Sum: Cecilia was her love interest.
[20:08] [DA] Tranque: Ah..
[20:08] [DA] Tranque: And kate knew her?
[20:08] [A:B] Timecode: Some extras were never even discovered. SMILEY
[20:08] Fox: Helped my case to Kate that Escroc wasnt to be trusted
[20:08] [A:B] Zero Sum: Kate didn't really know her so much as she knew Kate.
[20:09] [DA] Tranque: Ah cause the whole "Escroc is more then meets the eye" "So am I" thing sounded a bit intriguing
[20:09] Fox: True
[20:09] [A:B] Zero Sum: Funny how girls respond when they're threatened. SMILEY
[20:13] [A:B] Zero Sum: Barloke! Do you have a question you'd like to ask?
[20:14] barloke: yup!
[20:14] * {DA} LinksLife sits around the event teams campfire. "Story time! Tell me a story!"
[20:14] Fox: ^.^
[20:14] [A:B] Zero Sum: Well feel free. =)
[20:14] barloke: Will future events be a totally different scenario? Or will they tie into the Algorithm storyline?
[20:14] [A:B] Video: Who knows?
[20:15] [A:B] Control: Besides the nose?
[20:15] The Great Wyrm: The Shadow knows!
[20:15] [A:B] Digimite: Future events? They want more?
[20:15] Chainer: nice answer
[20:15] Chainer: MORE!
[20:15] Chainer: and a cookie, pweese
[20:15] [A:B] Control: That's a good question, Digimite.
[20:15] Fox: If you give a mouse a cookie, he just wants more more more
[20:15] [A:B] Zero Sum: You should see what was just screamed in the other window...
[20:15] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: ./Smith voice: Mooorrrree....
[20:15] [A:B] Deceit: ZING!
[20:15] [A:B] Zero Sum: [20:14] [A:B] Timecode: FUTURE RELEASE QUESTION! :p
[20:15] Fox: bahahaa
[20:15] [A:B] Control: No zing.
[20:15] [A:B] Zero Sum: Kidding!
[20:15] * The Great Wyrm laughs
[20:15] [A:B] Control: I believe it has more of a gong feeling.
[20:16] [A:B] Deceit: ...DOOOOOOOONG?
[20:16] [A:B] Deceit: Ok, no. Hmm...
[20:16] Jack's Wasted Life: This just in- Britney Spears Hit Song "Gimme More" true inspiration was from A:B Event. www.cnn.com for details...
[20:16] [A:B] Zero Sum: Let me answer that like this... we have enough story already that we can go until this time next year before writing more.
[20:16] Fox: snap
[20:16] Chloe: Wow
[20:16] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Wow!
[20:16] [A:B] Digimite: I think they liked it!
[20:16] {DA} LinksLife: Woah...
[20:16] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: That's dedication!
[20:16] Chloe: so I have to keep resubbing?
[20:16] Chainer: yes
[20:16] Chainer: as do i
[20:16] Jack's Wasted Life: hehe
[20:16] Chloe: *CENSORED*
[20:16] [DA] Tranque: Does any of it involve a secret relationship with Inductor and Sky?
[20:16] [A:B] Zero Sum: It's an overall story arch, with some small archs within... there will be a lot of twists and turns...
[20:17] [A:B] Zero Sum: But a lot of it will tie together.
[20:17] Chainer: bah... dont remind sephr of inductor, lol
[20:17] <mindsweep(Mindsweep) (Power User) has entered the room>
[20:17] Jack's Wasted Life: evening mindsweep
[20:17] [DA] Tranque: Heh
[20:17] Mindsweep: Hello everyone
[20:17] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Heya, Mindsweep.
[20:17] Mindsweep: ah hey Jack!
[20:17] Mindsweep: Hiya Sieges
[20:17] [A:B] Zero Sum: Chainer... you have a question for the team?
[20:17] [A:B] Encrypt: We also have plans to revamp the entire website including adding new features for future events such as a live event indicator program
[20:17] Mindsweep: what did i do?
[20:18] Chainer: can you skip me and come back? lol im trying to catch up the reading
[20:18] [A:B] Zero Sum: Alright, lol. As you wish. Chloe?
[20:18] Mindsweep: Chloe /russdance Hiya
[20:18] [ML] Nubious81: dunno if this been asked yet been missioning with few people and djing how many people it take to plan,do this event?
[20:18] Fox: TIME PARADOX
[20:18] Chloe: Uhm... I dont have a question... just a.. Great job, and thanks for doing something that this game needed and I cant wait for more!
[20:19] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nubious, since we skipped you... the team consists of roughly 30 people. SMILEY
[20:19] Insertion: O.O
[20:19] [A:B] Deceit: More or less.
[20:19] [A:B] Digimite: Give or take a few.
[20:19] Mercio / JonBoy: holy crap
[20:19] Jack's Wasted Life: wow..
[20:19] Insertion: ...
[20:19] [A:B] Control: 31, really.
[20:19] Fox: and LESIG is just Rarebit and a monkey. You can see the difference
[20:19] Jack's Wasted Life: HAHAH
[20:19] [A:B] Digimite: ...
[20:19] [A:B] Control: Please, no flames.
[20:19] [A:B] Deceit: Rarebit does his best.
[20:19] [A:B] Video: 31 in the team, 15 actualy doing stuff. SMILEY
[20:19] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Wow, that's a lot of folks to coordinate.
[20:19] [A:B] Zero Sum: Everybody does stuff.
[20:20] Chainer: who played inductor? does sephr need to go wash his mouth? lol sorry i am just curious about that
[20:20] Mindsweep: So size does matter hm..
[20:20] [A:B] Zero Sum: Chainer: I'll provide the Listerine.
[20:20] [A:B] Sagramore: Some people more than others, some just sit there and ride the wave of glory like me
[20:20] Jack's Wasted Life: kapow
[20:20] Chainer: *CENSORED* you! LOL
[20:20] [A:B] Zero Sum: DaJustifier: Do you have a question for the team?
[20:20] Chainer: Still, i have to say thanks again, it make for an awsome finish on syntax
[20:20] DaJustifier: how long prior to the event did you guys think up the event and how long did it take to put inot place
[20:21] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: Uh
[20:21] [A:B] Timecode: *laughs at that question because the answer is insane*
[20:21] The Great Wyrm: Insanity is genius in it's rawest form.
[20:22] [A:B] Zero Sum: I had the brainstorm to do the event near the middle of September. I'd like to say around the 20th of September. It took about a week or so to pull together the people I knew were capable of pulling it off... and we started to work on the process almost immediately.
[20:22] Chainer: 0_o
[20:22] barloke: no way
[20:22] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Or, the difference between artistry and insanity is genius.
[20:22] The Great Wyrm: Wow - that's fast.
[20:22] [A:B] Deceit: Yeah, about a month
[20:22] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Wow! You pulled all *THAT* off in a month?
[20:22] [A:B] Timecode: Yeah, we originally didn't plan to even be in game until Oct. 31, but I got carried away with the prologue.
[20:22] [A:B] Zero Sum: The entire length of October, while the hype was growing, we were scurrying around putting things together.
[20:22] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: Yeah...Sept 20 is when I joined
[20:22] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: so that sounds about right
[20:22] [A:B] Control: We prefer to deliver our.... treats.... fresh and warm.
[20:23] [A:B] Deceit: Well the 20th is when Zero started it...then the entire month was scrambling us out and trying to piece everything together.
[20:23] [A:B] Nemo: that and most of us no longer know the meaning of the word sleep
[20:23] * [A:B] Glitch Kitty drops a dead bird for Control and runs up a tree
[20:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: Foxdizzle? Do you have a question for the class?
[20:23] [A:B] Video: Sleep is for the weak!
[20:23] [A:B] Digimite: Sleep?
[20:23] Mindsweep: *thows in a bluepill*
[20:23] * Fox shoots a spitball
[20:23] Machete: heheh
[20:23] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: What is this "sleep" you speak of?
[20:23] Fox: yeah dood, one sec
[20:23] [A:B] Deceit: DETENTION!
[20:24] * [DA] Tranque throws catnip into the air
[20:24] * [A:B] Glitch Kitty yowls
[20:25] Fox: Ok, if I write a slashfiction RP story about Kate Sky and me, will she play along? And by that I mean, does the Kate Sky character plan to stick around as a recurring interactive character?
[20:25] [A:B] Zero Sum: Oh, Kate Sky will be around for awhile. And yes... all of our stories will be and currently are player responsive.
[20:25] Fox: Wooooo
[20:26] Chainer: NICE
[20:26] * [A:B] Zero Sum looks at the team.
[20:26] [A:B] Zero Sum: Kate Sky, would you please step forward?
[20:26] [DA] Tranque: Its like
[20:26] [DA] Tranque: Blind date
[20:26] [A:B] Timecode: I should add that as long as it doesn't involve laser beams we will react SMILEY
[20:26] [A:B] Digimite: Pew pew.
[20:26] Fox: Can I be a vampire?
[20:26] Chainer: Pffft
[20:26] [DA] Tranque: Would if the lazer beams..have catnip?
[20:26] The Great Wyrm: How about men made of wireframes, or the sun falling into the River?
[20:26] Chainer: Chimera ftw.
[20:27] Fox: SMILEY
[20:27] The Great Wyrm: What? What?
[20:27] Insertion: 8 colors in a crayon box ftw.
[20:27] Fox: SMILEY
[20:27] [A:B] Zero Sum: Let's put it like this... we won't respond to PoyntBlancery.
[20:27] Fox: haha
[20:27] [A:B] Timecode: *kate sky raises her hand*
[20:27] {DA} LinksLife: Oh snap!
[20:27] Jack's Wasted Life: lol
[20:27] Machete: good!
[20:27] Fox: Kate Sky is Timecode :O
[20:27] Chainer: no god moddind! thank god!
[20:27] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Yay!
[20:27] Fox: ./bow
[20:28] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: [20:27] [A:B] Zero Sum: Let's put it like this... we won't respond to PoyntBlancery. <--uh...aren't we right now? XD
[20:28] Mindsweep: ...
[20:28] * {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon giggles
[20:28] [A:B] Zero Sum: Hahah. Alright. Insertion... *glares at Glitch Kitty* ...do you have a question?
[20:28] The Great Wyrm: Hey! We resemble that remark!
[20:28] [A:B] Deceit: In reality, this entire thing was just a bunch of PyntBlancery
[20:28] Insertion: Yup! What was the idea behind the decision to use Live Event characters from the official MxO storyline to direct operatives throughout the event, and do you see this as being an ongoing form of communicating to the event's participants?
[20:28] [A:B] Zero Sum: Ohh... snap.
[20:28] [A:B] Deceit: Hmm....good question.
[20:29] Insertion: SMILEY
[20:29] Fox: Expose
[20:29] Reeverb: I was gonna ask that. *thinks of another question*
[20:29] * [A:B] Zero Sum looks at the team.
[20:29] [A:B] Control: Excuse the others, most of us are on a high from the huge stress relief.
[20:29] [A:B] Control: One question per customer, please wait your turn.
[20:29] [A:B] Deceit: I'll try a hit at the question.
[20:29] [A:B] Deceit: ...ehh...no I won't.
[20:30] Fox: Quitter!
[20:30] Insertion: Lol..
[20:30] Jack's Wasted Life: hah
[20:30] Chainer: Phail!
[20:30] [A:B] Zero Sum: Well, to be honest, we didn't like the idea of using story characters because of the canonical difference, but when you have 5 organizations to drive along... you don't have a lot of choices. Well, hold on, let me rephrase that...
[20:30] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: "Because Zero Sum told me to make them"
[20:30] [A:B] Timecode: Personally, I thought they were a bit overused at first. Towards the end it was about right though.
[20:30] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: Sounds like a good answer
[20:30] [A:B] Zero Sum: We didn't have choices at the time. I'm going to call out one of our people who will be announcing a way to resolve that problem...
[20:30] [A:B] Deceit: I don't think we can grab the attention of people, and the idea that we have Tranceivers...well we probably thought the best way to explain that are Controllers/leaders
[20:30] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nemo?

**EncryptedTransmission**

[20:31] [A:B] Nemo: alrighty, if I can have everyones attention
[20:31] Chainer: sure
[20:31] The Great Wyrm: This should be good....
[20:31] [A:B] Digimite: Wha..what?
[20:31] <weathercat(Valeth) (Power User) has entered the room>
[20:31] Insertion: I thought Veil was played out pretty well from start to finish or so. Although, seeing as how much A:B has attracted the user base, I was just wondering if you need those characters anymore.
[20:31] Valeth: Hello all
[20:31] [A:B] Nemo: id like you to right click my name
[20:31] [A:B] Nemo: and select show profile
[20:31] [A:B] Deceit: My personal favorite was Flood.
[20:32] Fox: Ok done Nemo
[20:32] Reeverb: Yeah.
[20:32] [A:B] Deceit: But you can.
[20:32] [A:B] Nemo: http://www.xfire.com/profile/abnemo/
[20:32] [A:B] Nemo: Please direct your attention to about halfway down the page and you will see a list of clans and guilds
[20:32] [DA] Tranque: Heh
[20:32] [A:B] Nemo: .... one moment
[20:33] [A:B] Nemo: like I said lack of sleep
[20:33] [A:B] Video: Technical difficulties...
[20:33] Mindsweep: Who is next to ask a Q?
[20:33] Reeverb: Jack.
[20:33] Fox: Makes sense, plus as long as the story isnt super disrupted its fine
[20:33] Mindsweep: ok
[20:33] Jack's Wasted Life: I am? ok
[20:33] Jack's Wasted Life: not a problem
[20:35] [A:B] Nemo: there, like I said, lack of sleep and a coffee high
[20:35] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: if you look at the URLs on that page, you can figure out the other three
[20:35] Mercio / JonBoy: did you guys answer Insertion's question? Sorry I was afk for a sec
[20:36] Mindsweep: lol
[20:36] [A:B] Zero Sum: Don't worry, we're logging so the log will be posted. =)
[20:36] Fox: yeah scroll up
[20:36] Mercio / JonBoy: ok thanks
[20:36] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nemo, care to explain to everyone what they're looking at?
[20:36] [A:B] Nemo: As you can see, we have prepared 5 clans, one for each org. This is an optional thing you can choose to sign up to but for obvous reasons, we encourage you to sign up
[20:36] Jack's Wasted Life: the former question was about the usage of major characters- are you willing to challenge SoE's storyline with how their characters are going to play out- Killing of Agent White (a real event character in other stories)- did you contact SoE about killing off that character to keep with any continuity errors?
[20:37] Insertion: Merv Organization has a typo in its description
[20:37] [A:B] Timecode: Personally, I was iffy about that myself.
[20:37] [A:B] Timecode: Actually White was in Path of Neo and in the comics.
[20:37] Fox: True
[20:37] Fox: Plus a name is just a name with Agents
[20:37] [A:B] Sagramore: How many times have you killed Agent Wong?
[20:37] [A:B] Timecode: He was Smiths' replacement before Gray
[20:37] [A:B] Deceit: Many.
[20:37] [A:B] Zero Sum: Jack: We contacted no one about authorized use of any characters whatsoever. We could actually have all of our stories proven to be false by Rarebit and/or LESIG at any time.
[20:37] [A:B] Nemo: The logo and little lines are temporary, when you sign up you will see a few things need house keeping from the new tenents
[20:38] Jack's Wasted Life: I actually rescued Agent Wong and brought him to Agent Wong. the Smith Virus still exists. I swear
[20:38] [A:B] Control: Which we were, right before we started. I always thought that was odd of Rarebit, to outright refuse involvement like that.
[20:38] Valeth: Wheres the "join" button?
[20:38] [A:B] Deceit: Where we want it to be.
[20:38] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Indeed... though I know one person on Recursion who's under the delusion that White is an Exiled Agent whom she's been cozying with... this could cause some drama....
[20:38] Fox: He's just overworked and technically lazy
[20:38] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: Well
[20:38] [A:B] Timecode: Bring on the drama.
[20:38] [A:B] Deceit: In all honesty, it doesn't matter.
[20:38] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: I don't think Agent Bob would've been...
[20:39] [A:B] Encrypt: Avas, I must unfortunately take my leave
[20:39] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: acceptable
[20:39] [A:B] Zero Sum: We're not trying to step on anyone's toes... we're just trying to tell a story. Ultimately, it's up to the players whether it's canon or not.
[20:39] Jack's Wasted Life: Timecode- Agent Skinner was smith's replacement before gray o-O
[20:39] [A:B] Timecode: Not according to the Matrix Wiki.
[20:39] [A:B] Encrypt: Have a fun QA Session everyone *click*
[20:39] [A:B] Deceit: Indeed, we're not here to challenge anyone's authority.
[20:39] [A:B] Zero Sum: That's always been something about the Matrix that I've personally liked. It's so open to interpretation. Our stories can be taken the same way.
[20:39] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Or to accept the event/story at all.
[20:39] <abencrypt([A:B] Encrypt) has left the room>
[20:40] [A:B] Control: Indeed. Next question. I believe that's.. Machete?
[20:40] [A:B] Zero Sum: Sure is.
[20:40] Jack's Wasted Life: sorry to steal another question- do you guys plan to have a historical Wiki about your events as well? to have newer players catch up on your own events?
[20:40] [A:B] Deceit: Hmm....
[20:40] * [A:B] Zero Sum grins at Jack.
[20:40] [A:B] Deceit: Hehehehe...
[20:40] [A:B] Zero Sum: Patience, buddy. Heheh.
[20:40] [A:B] Zero Sum: Machete?
[20:41] Machete: Does the Algorithm have an RSI yet and if so can we hope to meet him in the simulation
[20:41] [A:B] Timecode: The Algorithm's RSI is as seen in the videos and as such, cannot really be introduced in game.
[20:41] Machete: sorry still at work SMILEY

[20:41] [A:B] Control: *arbitrarily hits a gong*
[20:42] [A:B] Zero Sum: Well, hold on...
[20:42] Machete: you can use dredlocks SMILEY

[20:42] Fox: ^ yup
[20:42] [A:B] Timecode: I'm not referring to the dreads.
[20:42] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: ./loadlo DarthSidius
[20:42] [A:B] Deceit: Cryptos: Eh, mon! That's me dreads you dealin' with!
[20:42] Fox: i dont think we saw his face
[20:42] [A:B] Video: You were not meant to. SMILEY

[20:42] Fox: 'zactly
[20:42] Machete: I figured that
[20:42] [A:B] Timecode: He doesn't have one. He's just a silhouette with sparks.
[20:42] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Mm. it was too shadowed to see.
[20:43] [A:B] Zero Sum: To try and answer it without answering it... the future holds limitless possibilities. You never know if you won't pop out of the Southard hardline in an hour and be staring face to face with the Algorithm himself.
[20:43] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Ooh, creepy. I like!
[20:43] [DA] Tranque: Maybe
[20:43] [DA] Tranque: Dreads
[20:43] [DA] Tranque: Plus
[20:43] [A:B] Control: It would be a little, ah, difficult, to show his powers with the game's technical limitations.
[20:43] [DA] Tranque: Master shadow
[20:43] [A:B] Deceit: The batteries in the flashlight that was supposed to make him scary ran out.
[20:43] [DA] Tranque: Who actually had brians journal jack?
[20:43] [DA] Tranque: You?
[20:43] Machete: now you are gonna make me stack out Southard 24/7
[20:43] [A:B] Control: Mercio / JonBoy
[20:43] Machete: stake
[20:43] [A:B] Zero Sum: Jack, feel free to answer that question.
[20:43] Mercio / JonBoy: for future reference, did you guys think using RMC terminal was a good thing, and did it pay off? Would you change anything as well? (I'm a DJ for RMC Terminal)
[20:44] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Re: game mechanics limitations: I empathize.
[20:44] Mercio / JonBoy: and you can call me Mercio SMILEY

[20:44] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Hee, I think it was a great idea to use RMC terminal: it got me listening to it more often to see what was coming down the pike next.
[20:44] [A:B] Deceit: Hmm...
[20:44] [A:B] Nemo: Im sorry to break in for a moment here: If you have signed up to a clan please let me know if you are waiting to enter, as you can guess I have 5 clans to maintain so it gets a little crazy for me to refresh all of them at once
[20:45] [A:B] Zero Sum: Mercio: RMC Terminal helped us A LOT. It's a wonderful station that doesn't get as much credit as it used to, and it adds yet another element to how we can distribute story information to the players.
[20:45] [A:B] Control: Personally, I was against using RMC at all. Proffesionally, I can not deny their usefulness.
[20:45] Valeth: I signed up
[20:45] The Great Wyrm: My application has been submitted.
[20:45] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Me too.
[20:45] [A:B] Timecode: Yeah, the goal with the finale event was sort of an attempt to bring up the old nostalgia of the old LE's and the RFZ days.
[20:45] {DA} LinksLife: Wow... way to make me feel old.
[20:45] [A:B] Zero Sum: We'd love to continue to work with RMC Terminal in our future events. And definitely... what Timecode said.
[20:45] [A:B] Nemo: so far I have Fox, Insertion, The Great Wyrm, Valeth, Sieges/Morraeon, DAJustifier
[20:46] Jack's Wasted Life: I found last nights RMC very entertaining- whilst good music the roleplay was implemented seamlessly and the new casters were funny too
[20:46] Jack's Wasted Life: news**
[20:46] [A:B] Control: I believe it's Mindsweep's turn to ask a question.
[20:46] [A:B] Zero Sum: We're glad you enjoyed it!
[20:46] [A:B] Zero Sum: Sure is. Mindsweep?
[20:46] [ML] Nubious81: yeah wanted to listen to it last night went to go see beowoulf last night
[20:46] Mercio / JonBoy: Good to hear. =)
[20:46] [A:B] Digimite: Half the team was as shocked with that broadcast as you was im sure.
[20:46] Mindsweep: yep
[20:46] Mindsweep: My turn
[20:46] Mindsweep: Will you work with the LESIG Team in future events? The Event going on over all the 3 severs was awesome. I think that was the keypoint of the success for this Event, so i hope you plan on doing that in the future to.
[20:47] Mindsweep: sort of two Q's...
[20:47] [A:B] Control: We would be honored to work with them.
[20:48] [A:B] Zero Sum: We would love to work with LESIG and/or Rarebit any and all we can. I understand there may be limitations, but hey... we can do things that they can't, and they can do things that we can't. If there was a way we could work together on a massive event... I don't think there's any way we could go wrong. But that's entirely up to them and Rarebit.
[20:48] [A:B] Timecode: The real problem there is that it's hard to talk to them OOC and also the fact that if they were to do so, they'd have to be recognizing us on some level as canon.
[20:48] Fox: they probably won't be allowed to. Although one of the EPN liaisons was participating in it the other day.
[20:48] [A:B] Zero Sum: If we could, we would.
[20:49] Jack's Wasted Life: sounds like i need to start a poll and cause drama...
[20:49] [A:B] Timecode: In time, things could always change, but who knows.
[20:49] The Great Wyrm: To be perfectly honest, recognizing you as canon would be a good thing, considering some of the things -they've- recognized as canon....
[20:49] [A:B] Timecode: Touche.
[20:49] [A:B] Control: Mmhmm. Reeverb? You're next.
[20:49] {DA} LinksLife: Here here.
[20:49] Mindsweep: I think it would get even more attention, because a lot players started to ask the LO's about it.
[20:49] Reeverb: Have you ever asked Rarebit for assistance, such as NPC spawns or server announcements, or anything else?
[20:50] Reeverb: Simple question, just want to know if he's up for assisting really.
[20:50] [A:B] Timecode: We didn't actually ask Rarebit.
[20:50] Mindsweep: Ok, thanks for the answer
[20:50] [A:B] Zero Sum: No, we didn't. We worked with Raijinn very closely, but we never really approached Rarebit because we understood that what we were looking at accomplishing could've been viewed as questionable at the time.
[20:50] [A:B] Digimite: Just a note if I may..
[20:50] [A:B] Timecode: But we did ask Raijinn. For those of you that were there at the Paradise Lost Halloween party, there was supposed to have been lupine spawns there.
[20:50] [A:B] Timecode: We found out that only Rarebit can do that.
[20:51] Jack's Wasted Life: ah very interesting
[20:51] [A:B] Timecode: There was also supposed to be a system announcement from Kate Sky that the CSR's never came through with.
[20:51] Valeth: The clans need forums =/
[20:51] [A:B] Video: And he ws quick to say he was not involved with us.
[20:51] [A:B] Control: That threw in a wrench or two, which would explain why the party dragged out so long.
[20:51] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Aww, too bad about the spawns.
[20:51] [A:B] Zero Sum: Yeah. We'd hoped for some Brewko assistance, but it was a no-go. But you never know about the future.
[20:51] Reeverb: I've heard from some guy or gal that he was trying to get help from the devs for several RP. At first I thought he was with you, but when I noticed you didn't do anything that no other players could do I got curious...
[20:51] [A:B] Zero Sum: Wyrm, did you have a question for the team?
[20:51] The Great Wyrm: I once knew a player by the name of Count Zero, perhaps most famed for the Matriculated event. In a way that I couldn't pinpoint even if I tried, this entire thing feels a lot like one of his projects, which is a good thing. So, my question would be are any of you the good Count? Or, if you would rather not identify yourself, could you tell me if he's involved?
[20:52] Fox: lol
[20:52] The Great Wyrm: Yes, I wrote that out ahead of time. *smirks slightly*
[20:53] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nothing wrong with being prepared. SMILEY

I know Count... haven't talked to him in ages, though. He wasn't involved in the project, though if I had been able to contact him, I'd have probably blackmailed him to be.
[20:53] The Great Wyrm: Ah well - had rather hoped he'd made a come back. All the same.
[20:53] Fox: I was in Count's faction and talk to him often heh. He's moved beyond MxO
[20:53] Fox: Plays LOTR online mostly now
[20:54] Valeth: When can we expect the next event to start?
[20:54] [A:B] Zero Sum: December 20th. SMILEY

[20:54] Mindsweep: Snowblind
[20:54] [A:B] Sagramore: In time for holiday fun for the whole family
[20:54] [A:B] Zero Sum: Snowblind. It'll run for one week.
[20:54] Valeth: *sits and waits for december 20th
[20:54] Mindsweep: bring snowballs
[20:54] Valeth: Heh
[20:54] Mindsweep: lol
[20:54] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Hah.
[20:54] [A:B] Zero Sum: Hahah, you'll need more than snowballs.
[20:55] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: ...who are we on now?
[20:55] * [A:B] Glitch Kitty lost track
[20:55] Jack's Wasted Life: *coughs*
[20:55] [A:B] Zero Sum: LinksLife! I know you've been waiting...
[20:55] The Great Wyrm: Links.
[20:55] {DA} LinksLife: Do you plan to use RL information again? Such as phone #s? I know you kinda used it and people were iffy about it. Very short and simple question.
[20:55] {DA} LinksLife: SMILEY

[20:55] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Hm... I had one...
[20:55] Valeth: Scared the hell out of one of the bluepills, heh
[20:55] Reeverb: Ok, I gotta go. I'm out of questions, everything I wanted to ask is asked. Thanks for your time guys and good luck with everything you do. ^.^
[20:56] Jack's Wasted Life: cya reeverb
[20:56] Mindsweep: laters reev
[20:56] Reeverb: Nighty night. =)
[20:56] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: See yah, Reeverb.
[20:56] Mercio / JonBoy: cya
[20:56] [A:B] Zero Sum: All personal information has been wiped from the database completely. We will have use for it again, but we had a promise to keep... we said we'd lose it, and we did. We will use it for the next event for those who will allow it, so it will be completely up to them to go into their profiles on the site and opt-in and provide their information if they want us using it.
[20:56] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: er
[20:56] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: will be tomorrow
[20:56] <reeverb(Reeverb) has left the room>
[20:56] {DA} LinksLife: Wonderful.
[20:56] {DA} LinksLife: I thought that was a nice touch.
[20:56] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: during the maintenance
[20:57] [A:B] Deceit: That of course doesn't mean I might call of one of you and yell "Seek the Algorithm..."
[20:57] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Okay, I remembered what I was going to ask...
[20:57] Mercio / JonBoy: lol
[20:57] [A:B] Control: Ask away.
[20:57] [A:B] Deceit: ...which I won't.
[20:57] [A:B] Zero Sum: We understand how scary it is to give out your information. Problem is, for some of the things we want to do... it's necessary. But voluntary on the part of those who want to.
[20:57] [A:B] Zero Sum: Sieges?
[20:57] {DA} LinksLife: Mm
[20:57] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Is there any way that players can help you guys out, sort of like what LESIG does with the LET?
[20:57] [A:B] Digimite: Oh good question.
[20:57] [A:B] Zero Sum: Definitely!
[20:58] Chainer: heh i would join
[20:58] [A:B] Deceit: ...ABSIG?
[20:58] [A:B] Digimite: Haha!
[20:58] Mindsweep: lol
[20:58] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I'm asking mostly because I'd be honored to help create Sentinal articles, since I've done something similar with my personal storyline.
[20:58] [A:B] Timecode: You guys liked that Sentinel, eh?
[20:58] {DA} LinksLife: Well...
[20:58] The Great Wyrm: The Sentinel is a trademark and tradition of ancient age.
[20:58] [A:B] Deceit: When I saw the Sentinel we made...I almost yelled "CHADWICK IS ALIVE?!"
[20:59] {DA} LinksLife: After not having a new Sentinel for what? almost a year? I'd say yes.
[20:59] The Great Wyrm: The fact that it's dead like this is....disappointing.
[20:59] [A:B] Timecode: I promise I'm not Chadwick in disguise SMILEY

[20:59] barloke: I submitted a possible sig idea for the "nothing" character
[20:59] The Great Wyrm: Good!
[20:59] [A:B] Zero Sum: We've got a LOT of aspects to look at to deliver the kind of quality events that we want to deliver. From funding, to programming, to web design, to video design, to audio, to... well... stuff we'll be implementing soon that we didn't get to implement this time around. Plus, we need help hyping up our events to the community to get them excited enough to participate.
[20:59] Fox: Nothing is crazy
[21:00] [A:B] Digimite: We would love it if more than just the MxO community got involved to right, Zero?
[21:00] [A:B] Zero Sum: We need players to help out in a lot of ways. There's no reason why this project has to be limited to a team to implement. This isn't just our baby, it's everyones, and everyone can help make it grow.
[21:00] [A:B] Deceit: ...and pay for child support.
[21:00] [DA] Tranque: Umm let me think, give me a hint to the snowblind storylines themes
[21:00] [A:B] Zero Sum: And yes... for those who are curious, we will be accepting team applications in the near future. SMILEY

[21:00] [A:B] Timecode: Tranque: Snow.

**EncryptedTransmission**

[21:01] [DA] Tranque: SMILEY

[21:01] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: Cold
[21:01] * [A:B] Deceit slaps self
[21:01] * [DA] Tranque teardrops
[21:01] Jack's Wasted Life: lol timecode 1 Tranque 0
[21:01] [A:B] Zero Sum: Tranque: Can you rephrase that in the form of a question? SMILEY

[21:01] Fox: hm do i like playing events or running events more...
[21:01] [DA] Tranque: Can you give us a hint to the main uhh theme aside from snow/water/ice ?
[21:01] [DA] Tranque: Oh heh
[21:01] [DA] Tranque: Sorry
[21:01] * {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon cues the "Law & Order* theme/sound-effect
[21:01] {DA} LinksLife: Blood?
[21:01] Jack's Wasted Life: Tranque heres a hint-
[21:01] [A:B] Zero Sum: Bloody snow.
[21:01] [A:B] Zero Sum: SMILEY

[21:01] Chainer: i have one more
[21:01] [DA] Tranque: Then hmm, Was there any way
[21:01] [DA] Tranque: to save the bluepills
[21:02] [DA] Tranque: and get the code
[21:02] [DA] Tranque: aside from killing them?
[21:02] [A:B] Zero Sum: No. None whatsoever. Heheh. Because we're evil like that.
[21:02] [DA] Tranque: Good.
[21:02] [A:B] Control: Actually, yes.
[21:02] [DA] Tranque: o.o
[21:02] Chainer: ...
[21:02] [A:B] Video: But there was another option Tranque...
[21:02] [A:B] Control: You're just evil like that.
[21:02] [A:B] Zero Sum: Shh! Don't tell them!
[21:02] * [DA] Tranque aims sniper at Video and Control
[21:02] [A:B] Deceit: Muahahhaa
[21:02] [A:B] Control: It's not my fault if you're a cold hearted murderer.
[21:02] [A:B] Zero Sum: If they find out now, they'll have regrets for killing them and our plan will have failed.
[21:02] [A:B] Control: Oh, wait, maybe it is.
[21:03] The Great Wyrm: Regret?
[21:03] The Great Wyrm: Tranque, you have the capacity for regret?
[21:03] [A:B] Timecode: 999 would have loved that.
[21:03] barloke: if no one has a question i would like to ask another if I may?
[21:03] The Great Wyrm: Who knew?!
[21:03] [A:B] Control: It's Nubious's turn for a question.
[21:03] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nubious, do you have one?
[21:03] [ML] Nubious81: is the snowblind gonna last a long time like algortithim black
[21:03] [A:B] Control: Oh, hell, no.
[21:04] [A:B] Video: A week.
[21:04] [A:B] Sagramore: No One Week SMILEY

[21:04] [A:B] Zero Sum: Hahahah. One week.
[21:04] Fox: haha
[21:04] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: As previously stated, a week
[21:04] [A:B] Digimite: Thank god.
[21:04] [A:B] Digimite: =)
[21:04] [A:B] Control: Barloke, question?
[21:04] [A:B] Zero Sum: Barloke?
[21:04] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Hah, good. Some of us work retail and this is a rough time of year...'
[21:04] barloke: Did you receive any feedback from the Lesig team or SOE staff that wasn't posted in the forums, and was it a positive or negative feedback?
[21:04] Mindsweep: *sighs*
[21:04] [A:B] Deceit: We blew our brains out after A:B, we need to keep it intact.
[21:04] [A:B] Zero Sum: We received no feedback from anyone at SOE.
[21:04] Valeth: But you know we love ya =P
[21:05] [A:B] Zero Sum: Other than Raijinn.
[21:05] [A:B] Zero Sum: SMILEY

[21:05] [A:B] Zero Sum: Chainer?
[21:05] Mindsweep: Did you ask for a feedback?
[21:05] [A:B] Zero Sum: No, actually we didn't. The reason being, we didn't want to come off like "HAI2USOE. We do good? U hire us nowz?"
[21:06] barloke: I am more than sure the offices at MXO was buzzing about this event , if anything it showed them what a few motivated people could do
[21:06] [A:B] Digimite: Come to think of it, why didn't we?
[21:06] [A:B] Zero Sum: Hahah. Chainer, did you have another question?
[21:06] Fox: I don't think you'd want to get hired by SoE. They seem to have sucked the soul out of Rarebit haha
[21:06] Chainer: yea, what was the idea behind getting inductor involved with sephr?
[21:07] Mindsweep: I have one question
[21:07] [A:B] Control: We wanted to see Sephr's reaction when he found out Inductor was played by a man.
[21:07] Chainer: and why pick him (me? lol)
[21:07] [A:B] Digimite: xD
[21:07] [A:B] Zero Sum: I can't imagine Rarebit with soul. He's no James Brown.
[21:07] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: LMAO
[21:07] Chainer: LOL
[21:07] [A:B] Digimite: The Inductor/Sephr match was never apart of the story. It just kinda...happened.
[21:07] [A:B] Zero Sum: Aww...!!!
[21:07] [A:B] Deceit: And did it happen...
[21:08] [A:B] Video: They both met... and fell in love...
[21:08] [A:B] Digimite: You know, they clicked into place.
[21:08] Chainer: Hmm, I suppose.
[21:08] [A:B] Timecode: I heard they met on myspace
[21:08] Chainer: LOL
[21:08] Jack's Wasted Life: haha
[21:08] Fox: huh wha
[21:08] Mindsweep: lol
[21:08] [A:B] Zero Sum: Boy meets program bent on genocide... boy falls in love...
[21:08] [A:B] Digimite: Haha!
[21:08] [A:B] Control: I shudder to think how well that went off. It says alot about the both of them.
[21:08] Chainer: she hit on him first!
[21:08] [A:B] Deceit: Boy falls in love with boy.
[21:08] [A:B] Zero Sum: DaJustifier, your turn!
[21:08] [A:B] Control: Who's next? DaJustifier, ask a question.
[21:10] [A:B] Zero Sum: Passing DaJustifier and going to Fox in 3...
[21:10] {DA} LinksLife: Hehe
[21:10] [A:B] Zero Sum: 2...
[21:10] Chainer: lol i started something i shouldnt of
[21:10] [A:B] Zero Sum: 1...
[21:10] * [A:B] Glitch Kitty meows
[21:10] [A:B] Zero Sum: Fox?
[21:10] The Great Wyrm: Sold!
[21:10] Fox: FOXXDIE WINS AGAIN
[21:11] Fox: In the first transceiver there was an Excel spreadsheet hidden in it, that apparently I was the only one to see. Did anyone solve it and was/is it important?
[21:11] Fox: Bonus: Who is the computer scientist on the team? SMILEY

[21:11] Mindsweep: I did get the xcel file to
[21:11] [A:B] Zero Sum: That would be Glitch Kitty, in terms of the scientist.
[21:11] Fox: Ok cool, I'm not crazy
[21:12] [A:B] Control: The jury is still out on that, Fox.
[21:12] [A:B] Zero Sum: The Binary wasn't important. Or was it? Hmm... and no, no one solved it.
[21:12] [A:B] Control: Insertion's turn.
[21:12] Insertion: *looks around*
[21:12] [A:B] Zero Sum: Insertion. Your turn!
[21:12] Insertion: Hrmm... So.. uh.. I don't have a question right now. O.O
[21:12] [A:B] Zero Sum: Lies...
[21:12] [A:B] Control: Right. Jacks' turn.
[21:13] [A:B] Zero Sum: Jack?
[21:13] Insertion: lol.
[21:13] Jack's Wasted Life: yea im here =D
[21:13] Jack's Wasted Life: im quite the listener
[21:13] [A:B] Zero Sum: Question for us? SMILEY

[21:13] Jack's Wasted Life: yes indeed
[21:14] Jack's Wasted Life: Personally, i found it rather interesting that i was being watched. As i have just came from a long hiatus from the game and nearly days of playing i was announced on this list. How much am being watched?
[21:15] * [A:B] Glitch Kitty turns off all the screen's of Jack's house in the Architects room
[21:15] [A:B] Timecode: Ceiling Glitch Kitty is watching you
[21:16] Jack's Wasted Life: Toilet Camera for scientific use only right? uh huh
[21:16] [A:B] Control: We do watch more than you know.
[21:16] [A:B] Zero Sum: Sorry, guys. Keep in mind we've been locked in a room for the past two months, so we're a little rough around the edges when it comes to public interaction. To answer your question...
[21:16] {DA} LinksLife: For how long though? You guys knew I was in the MCPD... O.o
[21:16] {DA} LinksLife: Hardly ANYONE remembers that.
[21:17] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I do...
[21:17] [A:B] Zero Sum: A lot of us have been around since Beta. We remember things. In fact...
[21:17] [A:B] Zero Sum: What we don't remember, it's not that hard to find out. When's the last time any of you went to the Vector or Recursion forums and scrolled all the way back to the first page?
[21:17] {DA} LinksLife: True.
[21:17] [A:B] Timecode: Yeah, we talked about freaking Foxxdie out with a Revenant crew roster from way back when.
[21:18] Mindsweep: I did yesterday believe it or not
[21:18] Jack's Wasted Life: rarely. i do admit :/
[21:18] Mindsweep: looking for something..
[21:18] The Great Wyrm: Last time I tried to find Void's directions to Coderise for my own use, I believe....
[21:18] [DA] Tranque: Tranque you couldnt have known much about
[21:18] [A:B] Zero Sum: Some of us even have screenshots from places like Input, Output, Iterator, Heuristic...
[21:18] Fox: :O
[21:18] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I'll admit I was waiting for one of you guys to dig up something on me...
[21:18] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Which is hard to do, since I'm sort of just barely on the radar a lot.
[21:18] [DA] Tranque: unless you found the original tranque from Method
[21:18] Jack's Wasted Life: If there are Heuristic peeps on your team. Mad props.
[21:18] [A:B] Zero Sum: You're tempting me, Sieges.
[21:19] The Great Wyrm: Must try to get more involved next time...I would so love to see what you could dig up on The Great Wyrm. *smirks slightly*
[21:19] [A:B] Digimite: Don't tempt us. =P
[21:19] [A:B] Deceit: Seriously.
[21:19] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Heh-heh...
[21:19] [A:B] Zero Sum: How about a private conversation between Wyrm and Sieges near the beginning of the pre-event hype?
[21:19] [A:B] Control: I'm sorry, it appears my entirely out-of-line comment has distracted even myself for a moment. It's Machete's turn for a question now, correct?
[21:19] [A:B] Zero Sum: Discussing the "Floating Feast?"
[21:20] [A:B] Zero Sum: I believe you were participating in the conversation as well, Links.
[21:20] The Great Wyrm: Ah, see, that's what I'm talking about. Good stuff.
[21:20] Mindsweep: *rings a bell*
[21:20] Machete: now I am gonna be looking over my shoulder even more to see if you guys start stalking us SMILEY

[21:20] Machete: Will there be more ARG elements in the coming events?? Meaning interruption of our normal daily lives?? (Hopes so!)
[21:20] [A:B] Zero Sum: Then again, I could always bring up the thread in the Devil's Advocates admin-only area about the event. And yes, Machete... there will be.
[21:21] Fox: HAX
[21:21] Machete: if you can track me down
[21:21] The Great Wyrm: Oh, Liliane is going to wring someone's neck....
[21:21] [DA] Tranque: o.o
[21:21] Machete: ;P
[21:21] [A:B] Zero Sum: There are a lot of ARG aspects that we didn't get to incorporate because of time constraints, but we'll be able to fully utilize them from here on out.
[21:21] [A:B] Zero Sum: We want everyone involved.
[21:22] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I think it was the ARG elements that got me hooked from the moment Wyrm first sent me the link to the ARG site.
[21:22] [A:B] Zero Sum: Keep in mind that this event was just a Beta Run of what we can do.
[21:22] [A:B] Control: Uh huh. Mercio. Question?
[21:22] [A:B] Zero Sum: There were a lot of bugs, a lot of stress involved, and a lot of things that weren't polished in the least.
[21:22] Mercio / JonBoy: Is there anything you really regret while doing this event? And would there be anything you would change for the next event?
[21:22] [A:B] Zero Sum: It'll only get better.
[21:22] [A:B] Deceit: ...wow...
[21:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: I regret making it a month long. -_-
[21:23] [A:B] Deceit: We have a list for you Mercio.
[21:23] [A:B] Control: That's certainly a question for all of us.
[21:23] [A:B] Video: More time for planning/videos.
[21:23] [A:B] Deceit: More organization...
[21:23] Machete: no regrets it was a fun month
[21:23] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: ....there was organization?
[21:23] [A:B] Timecode: True that. I was going insane with videos int he last week
[21:23] [A:B] Deceit: That's what we needed...
[21:23] [A:B] Control: I regret not spending more time tinkering with my respective Algorithm Operatives.
[21:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: Here's a tidbit... we didn't get to release half of the videos we'd planned to.
[21:23] [A:B] Timecode: More communication as well.
[21:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: There were... what, guys? 60 videos planned in all? Give or take?
[21:23] Machete: Can I know who played Semiconductor?
[21:24] [A:B] Deceit: I think we also need more emphasis on Vector, I noticed there was few participation, so we didn't reach out far enough to Vector.
[21:24] Machete: Wow 60
[21:24] [A:B] Video: Yep. Sounds about right Zero.
[21:24] [A:B] Timecode: That's true. There are some videos that never got finished but were worked on
[21:24] [A:B] Timecode: 45 actually
[21:24] [DA] Tranque: ooh i have good question
[21:24] [A:B] Video: Heh and some costumes that didnt get seen.
[21:24] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: 60?! Daymn
[21:24] [A:B] Control: 45, 60, around that.
[21:24] [A:B] Zero Sum: Semiconductor, would you raise your hand?
[21:24] Mindsweep: i have a question to
[21:24] [A:B] Timecode: Buona sera, operativo!
[21:24] Machete: I only ask who Semiconductor because he seemed "bored" at times. Or was I wrong?
[21:24] [A:B] Zero Sum: Hahaha!
[21:24] [A:B] Digimite: Fired!
[21:24] Mercio / JonBoy: rofl
[21:25] Jack's Wasted Life: I remember a conversation about violence and stupidity- Sorry when youre on Vector. Some things are ... harder to escape..
[21:25] [A:B] Timecode: Semiconductor was very condescending.
[21:25] [A:B] Control: Indeed. Mindsweep, what's your question?
[21:25] [A:B] Deceit: It's only what we "analyzed" SMILEY

[21:25] [A:B] Timecode: He was meant to be more like a mafia type.
[21:25] Mindsweep: How do you think the players insterest and RP with the A:B Team went? 10 for good 0 for bad?
[21:25] Jack's Wasted Life: indeed, when i first talked to Signor Semiconductor. He was very tough. but slowly he loosened up =p
[21:26] [A:B] Deceit: Personally, I think that depends on the server.
[21:26] [A:B] Control: That's more of a personal question.
[21:26] [A:B] Digimite: ...
[21:26] [A:B] Video: Yea, it varied for each server.
[21:26] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: And of course at what time of day as well
[21:26] [A:B] Zero Sum: I think we managed to peak an 8 on the general player interest scale. As far as RP goes, I think it got pretty good.
[21:26] [A:B] Timecode: Honestly, I found vector harder to deal with.
[21:26] [A:B] Deceit: Second.
[21:26] [A:B] Timecode: A lot of times, it was hard to find people.
[21:26] [A:B] Control: Another regret of mine. I should have spent more time on Vector.
[21:26] Fox: Poor vector
[21:27] [A:B] Zero Sum: But yeah... it's hard at times.
[21:27] Mindsweep: :-/
[21:27] [DA] Tranque: Before i leave
[21:27] Jack's Wasted Life: Zions in the morning, Mervs in the afternoon. Machines in the evening. o_O
[21:27] Valeth: The people on Recursion acted really weird
[21:27] [A:B] Deceit: We tried hard on Vector...I mean, I remember when I met Broin.
[21:27] Mindsweep: Was it hard to find players?
[21:27] Jack's Wasted Life: thats how the zoning works =p
[21:27] [DA] Tranque: Can you explain who made nothing or some such
[21:27] [A:B] Deceit: I expected him to be all RP, but he kinda just dazed off for a merv kill.
[21:27] [A:B] Zero Sum: Oh... Nothing...
[21:27] [A:B] Digimite: Hes ...well nothing....right?
[21:27] Insertion: Psssh. Vector deserves more lovin'.
[21:27] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nothing's a special treat. Get used to him.
[21:27] [DA] Tranque: -.-
[21:27] [A:B] Deceit: We know.
[21:27] [A:B] Control: Nothing is real, unless, well.
[21:27] The Great Wyrm: I like the sound of that.
[21:27] [DA] Tranque: Hes something SMILEY

[21:28] Fox: Me and nothing are tight
[21:28] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Ooh...
[21:28] [A:B] Digimite: Close your eyes, and think hes a dream.
[21:28] [A:B] Deceit: To Nothing, you are nothing.
[21:28] [A:B] Zero Sum: When is nothing ever really nothing?
[21:28] Fox: I can outdo "nothing" lyrics with him
[21:28] barloke: I just wish he wouldnt hijack everyone's posts...
[21:28] Fox: haha
[21:28] [A:B] Zero Sum: Wyrm, you had the next question, didn't you?
[21:28] The Great Wyrm: Another personal question for you all. What were some of your favorite moments over the course of the event? Do you have ones that stand out as across the board favorites?
[21:28] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I'll admit, he anNOYed me to no end when he kept editing my posts, but I'm notorious for having an easy cage to rattle... :: laughs::
[21:28] [DA] Tranque: Kay I need to leave
[21:28] [DA] Tranque: Tata
[21:28] Fox: laters
[21:28] [A:B] Digimite: My favourite moment..
[21:28] The Great Wyrm: Night Tranque.
[21:29] [A:B] Deceit: Favorite moment...
[21:29] [DA] Tranque: Wait after I hear this answre SMILEY

[21:29] [A:B] Zero Sum: Oh... Jack's videos made our jaws drop.
[21:29] barloke: night Tarnque
[21:29] [A:B] Control: My favorite moment? Probably when Tranque killed me.
[21:29] Jack's Wasted Life: did they?
[21:29] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: See yah, Tranque; Morrae says hello and good night.
[21:29] [DA] Tranque: Wait which wha
[21:29] [A:B] Deceit: Oh god yes, that fan vid was AMAZING.
[21:29] [DA] Tranque: When heh?
[21:29] [A:B] Timecode: Agreed.
[21:29] [DA] Tranque: I mean who were you?
[21:29] [A:B] Timecode: I was the first to find Jacks' videos
[21:29] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: Ditto
[21:29] [A:B] Control: I was who I needed to be.
[21:29] [A:B] Zero Sum: I also loved aggravating Tranque as Flood on the forums.
[21:29] [A:B] Timecode: I was in awe.
[21:29] [DA] Tranque: Delaro?
[21:29] Chainer: someone said something about credits. where are the credits? lol
[21:29] [A:B] Video: Yea, that video was... amazing, I thought we had a leak.
[21:29] [A:B] Digimite: I must say the whole Sephr, Inductor business made me have sooooo many lulz
[21:29] [A:B] Digimite: So that'l be mine.
[21:29] [A:B] Timecode: It shocked me how close you were to the truth
[21:29] [A:B] Video: The credits are... on their way.
[21:30] [A:B] Video: There is one more video to be released. A kind of 'book-end' to the event.
[21:30] [A:B] Zero Sum: Yep.
[21:30] [A:B] Deceit: I liked meeting the Machinists on Vector...they seemed interested.
[21:30] Chainer: digi, im gonna hunt you down, take your mother out to a fine dinner and never call herback for what you did to me!
[21:30] [A:B] Deceit: First time I met Jack, we had a good talk. Then I got to boss most of them around.
[21:30] [DA] Tranque: [19:28] [A:B] Control: My favorite moment? Probably when Tranque killed me.
[21:30] [A:B] Zero Sum: It'll be a special ending. And careful, Chainer, Digi's trying to get me to post screenies for him now to torment you with.
[21:30] Fox: whens that video gonna be out?
[21:30] [A:B] Timecode: Yeah, the final video had 3 possible outcomes I think, so we had to wait on it
[21:30] [A:B] Digimite: Haha
[21:30] * [A:B] Digimite coughs

**EncryptedTransmission**

[21:31] Mindsweep: Ok i need to leave now everyone. Keep up the good work it was really fun! SMILEY

[21:31] The Great Wyrm: Night.
[21:31] Fox: later man
[21:31] barloke: night
[21:31] [A:B] Deceit: See ya
[21:31] [A:B] Control: Tranque: I already gave you my hint. If I gave you another, I'd have to revoke your favor with our higher ranks.
[21:31] [DA] Tranque: Oh heh
[21:31] [A:B] Video: Fox: whens that video gonna be out? - Before the start of Snowblind. I hope.
[21:31] Jack's Wasted Life: indeed quite a talk. sometimes i go back to that conversation- i like to be reminded about machines that keep us alive..
[21:31] <mindsweep(Mindsweep) has left the room>
[21:31] [A:B] Zero Sum: Valeth? Anything?
[21:31] Valeth: Cant think of anything atm
[21:31] Valeth: Next
[21:33] [A:B] Control: Who's question are we on, now?
[21:33] [A:B] Zero Sum: LinksLife, did you have a question?
[21:33] [A:B] Timecode: For the record, I just want to state that Brian Gauss's actual final words were, "Don't tase me, bro."
[21:33] {DA} LinksLife: Alrighty...
[21:33] Fox: hahahahahahhaa
[21:33] Jack's Wasted Life: lol
[21:33] [A:B] Digimite: Hah!
[21:33] {DA} LinksLife: Hmmm...
[21:33] [A:B] Control: *groans*
[21:34] <mello5(Ballak (2ndRBn Walker)) (Power User) has entered the room>
[21:34] {DA} LinksLife: Oh!
[21:34] {DA} LinksLife: How many accounts did you guys use for this event alone?
[21:35] [A:B] Control: Two-to-five.
[21:35] [A:B] Digimite: I have 3
[21:35] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): A:B is over?
[21:35] [A:B] Zero Sum: Not counting our main accounts? I mean, I own two.
[21:35] [A:B] Deceit: I used about 2
[21:35] The Great Wyrm: Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the main source of MxO income...the A:B team....
[21:35] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Good one, Wyrm!
[21:35] [A:B] Zero Sum: Sieges? SMILEY

Question?
[21:35] Jack's Wasted Life: *applaudes*
[21:35] Fox: i resubbed because of them
[21:35] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Argh, lost the one I had...
[21:36] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Whoops, remembered it...
[21:36] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: The video clip with the dial-up modem dialing out...
[21:36] Machete: Just to throw this out there. You guys should setup a paypal account for donations...
[21:36] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Was there a code in the numbers being dialed?
[21:36] [A:B] Zero Sum: Machete: [email protected]
[21:36] Machete: hahah
[21:36] Machete: quick
[21:37] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I was going to see if they spelled out something, based on the tones, but I got busy at work and never got the chance to crack it.
[21:37] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Ahhh....
[21:37] [A:B] Zero Sum: Sieges: Nope. The actual video itself was a binary code in constant motion blur. Every split second or so, it would come into focus and then go back out.
[21:38] [A:B] Zero Sum: Problem is... YouTube has a tendancy of screwing up resolution settings if you're not careful.
[21:38] [A:B] Control: Amen.
[21:38] [A:B] Zero Sum: So it kind of became undecipherable.
[21:38] [A:B] Control: Who's next, Zero Sum?
[21:38] [A:B] Deceit: I know...I mean how can I watch my Naruto Subbed if it's blurred!?
[21:38] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nubious, if he's awake. SMILEY

[21:38] [A:B] Timecode: For the record, I was anti-Youtube the whole time.
[21:38] [A:B] Deceit: You're anti-everything.
[21:38] [A:B] Zero Sum: Amen, Deceit.
[21:39] Jack's Wasted Life: haha
[21:39] [A:B] Sagramore: AMEN
[21:39] [A:B] Video: Ouch.
[21:39] Machete: lol
[21:39] Mercio / JonBoy: he's awake
[21:39] Mercio / JonBoy: i think
[21:39] [ML] Nubious81: na i was just gonna say it was a great event lookingforward to snowblind
[21:40] [A:B] Zero Sum: =D Thanks for participating! Ballak, did you have a question?
[21:40] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): Considering the pretenses used, I'm assuming A:B is over?
[21:40] [A:B] Deceit: It's never over...
[21:40] [A:B] Control: Ballak, just assume that the fat lady doesn't exist.
[21:40] [A:B] Video: Its only just begun.
[21:40] [A:B] Timecode: The first event is, yes.
[21:40] The Great Wyrm: Saw that one coming....
[21:40] [A:B] Zero Sum: That event's over, but the others are coming fast.
[21:40] Machete: this chapter is over SMILEY

[21:41] [A:B] Zero Sum: One per month, every month...
[21:41] [A:B] Control: Faster than you can think!
[21:41] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Wow.
[21:41] [A:B] Digimite: Don't blink! =P
[21:41] * The Great Wyrm blinks
[21:41] [A:B] Zero Sum: Oh... and we won't always announce them.
[21:41] [A:B] Zero Sum: Just so we can be evil like that.
[21:41] Jack's Wasted Life: :X
[21:41] [A:B] Control: Eh heh heh heh.
[21:41] [A:B] Control: Barloke!
[21:41] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Heh, sneaky beggars.
[21:41] barloke: Before I ask my question I wanted to say first that it was a milestone event, even if it was just a test event, roleplay has come back to MXO and I think it is just another key into reviving this game. On that note how much did it cost to make this event happen, money wise?
[21:42] [A:B] Deceit: 1.5 mil.
[21:42] The Great Wyrm: You need a license to be evil on Recursion. Between me, Void, and Vanil, we have the market cornered.
[21:42] [A:B] Deceit: in US dollars.
[21:42] [A:B] Zero Sum: Hahah, I believe the final figure was around $450.00 USD.
[21:42] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: I spent $30 here
[21:42] barloke: more or less yes
[21:42] Fox: diggidy *CENSORED*
[21:42] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: on subscriptions
[21:42] [A:B] Zero Sum: After I tallied it all up.
[21:42] [A:B] Timecode: Hm...somewhere between 300 and 400 most likely. Possibly more.
[21:42] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Hah...
[21:42] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Wow.
[21:42] [A:B] Timecode: Oh, you actually tallied it up?
[21:42] [A:B] Zero Sum: But then, keep in mind that some of that was spent on things we didn't get to implement this time, but will in future events.
[21:42] [A:B] Deceit: Harsh Time...
[21:43] [A:B] Zero Sum: And yes, I tallied it up. Told you I was keeping reports. SMILEY

[21:43] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): What about money spent besides subscriptions?
[21:43] [A:B] Zero Sum: I'm not talking about money spent on subscriptions, Ballak. SMILEY

[21:43] [A:B] Zero Sum: Chainer?
[21:43] [A:B] Zero Sum: Question?
[21:44] Chainer: was making some gatoraide, haha
[21:44] Chainer: yes
[21:44] Chainer: i do have a question
[21:44] [A:B] Digimite: Oh god.
[21:44] Chainer: will you be releasing the nightshot videos of inductor and sephr?
[21:44] Jack's Wasted Life: hahaha
[21:44] [A:B] Zero Sum: I believe that one's directed purely at Digi.
[21:44] [A:B] Digimite: The what shots?
[21:44] [A:B] Timecode: The what?
[21:45] [A:B] Timecode: *looks at Video*
[21:45] Chainer: like paris hiltons videos
[21:45] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nightshots. Think of the Paris Hilton videos. Night vision.
[21:45] [A:B] Zero Sum: You noobs.
[21:45] Chainer: digi got quiet fast
[21:45] * The Great Wyrm snickers
[21:45] Chainer: lol
[21:45] [A:B] Digimite: Oh you mean after hours tapes.
[21:45] [A:B] Control: Yes, but there will be a fee to watch them.
[21:45] Machete: hehee
[21:45] [A:B] Digimite: You never got into her clothes =P
[21:45] Chainer: i get them for free tho?
[21:45] Chainer: liez!!!
[21:45] [A:B] Control: You get a discount.
[21:45] Chainer: nice
[21:45] [A:B] Zero Sum: Yeah, we'll be opening www.algorithmblackgonewild.com sometime in January.
[21:45] [A:B] Deceit: Ah jeez...
[21:45] Mercio / JonBoy: lol
[21:45] Jack's Wasted Life: lawlz
[21:45] [A:B] Zero Sum: DaJustifier?
[21:46] [A:B] Timecode: Yeah, we're goofballs, mostly. We're glad we can kick back for a few.
[21:46] [A:B] Zero Sum: Last call for DaJustifier...
[21:46] DaJustifier: nope i dont have any questions
[21:47] [A:B] Zero Sum: Alright. Foxxdie... we have a question for you.
[21:47] Fox: Oh uh ok
[21:47] [A:B] Zero Sum: Will you be sticking around this time, or are you going to be a nerd and unsub again?
[21:47] Fox: LATER LOSERS
[21:47] Fox: Lol jk
[21:47] Fox: Yeah I'll probably stick around for a bit
[21:48] The Great Wyrm: Yeah Fox - Wyrm could use some more opposition. The rest of the people left just aren't a challenge. *smirks*
[21:48] [A:B] Zero Sum: Did you have a question, Fox?
[21:48] Fox: Yeah
[21:49] Fox: Music seemed to play a big role in this event, which is a theme I was wanting to work with in a story but that's beside the point. Most of it came from Nothing. Is the use of music an important thematic element of the ongoing story, or is it isolated to the Nothing character, in that he is a sort of information worm?
[21:50] [A:B] Timecode: It wasn't isolated.
[21:50] [A:B] Zero Sum: No, it wasn't isolated...
[21:50] [A:B] Timecode: 999 spoke in lyrics.
[21:50] Fox: Yeah true
[21:50] [A:B] Zero Sum: Music plays a huge role in stories... all stories. It sets the mood, it expresses things in ways that it would be hard to express.
[21:51] Jack's Wasted Life: nin FTW!
[21:51] Fox: true
[21:51] Machete: heheh
[21:51] [A:B] Zero Sum: NIN had a lot to do with the feel we were going for.
[21:51] [A:B] Deceit: Look at 300. that thing had epic music, and it turned out to be the US's greatest movie this year.
[21:51] [A:B] Zero Sum: Just so happens everything ties together... including Nothing.
[21:51] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Mm, think of the classic rock songs they use on "Supernatural".
[21:51] Insertion: Oh, I like their choice in music.
[21:51] [A:B] Digimite: Trying to find as much as possible.
[21:52] [A:B] Timecode: I enjoyed watching the response 999 got from the lyrics to "World"
[21:52] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): The music really wasn't that great in 300, or at least the soundtrack I bought wasn't. There was perhaps one song you noticed that was the key-note for the movie, but I think the action sold it to the guys and the abs sold it to the ladies.
[21:52] Jack's Wasted Life: i liked singing with 999... billy joel is cool =D
[21:52] [A:B] Zero Sum: Insertion, did you have another question?
[21:52] Insertion: Yea, just Machete's.
[21:52] Insertion:
[22:48] Machete: If approached by LESIG or more to the point LESIG's boss (Rarebit) to incorporate you guys into its program would you?
[21:53] [A:B] Zero Sum: If we were asked to join LESIG?
[21:53] barloke: well folks I had fun listening to all the questions and answers but I have to jet , cya folks around!
[21:53] Fox: laters
[21:53] The Great Wyrm: Night.
[21:53] <barloke has left the room>
[21:53] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: See yah, Barloke!
[21:53] [A:B] Deceit: Hmm...join LESIG...
[21:53] [A:B] Deceit: No.
[21:53] [A:B] Digimite: Nevar!
[21:53] Machete: SMILEY

[21:53] [A:B] Zero Sum: I can't speak for everyone on the team, but I know several of us would have to say no. The reason is because we'd rather not be limited by the rules and limitations that LESIG puts on it's people.
[21:53] [A:B] Control: Without missing a beat.
[21:53] Fox: LESIG is soul killing, trust me
[21:54] {DA} LinksLife: You should talk to a guy named NightTrace... SMILEY

[21:54] [A:B] Zero Sum: Nobody said we didn't, Links. SMILEY

[21:54] The Great Wyrm: Ah, the Generalista....
[21:54] [A:B] Timecode: I always thought I'd want to be on LESIG, but not so much these days.
[21:54] [A:B] Video: I think it would be nice to work with LESIG, but since we now have our own group going now I would not join them.
[21:54] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: True, but he got so nasty with pushing it in the end...
[21:54] [A:B] Deceit: But yeah, we probably wouldn't. Based on what LESIG has been seen as now...I don't think we can "redeem" it
[21:54] The Great Wyrm: The last Machinist I really knew.
[21:55] [A:B] Zero Sum: NightTrace was actually heavily involved with A:B for the planning phases.
[21:55] {DA} LinksLife: Oh?
[21:55] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: ... Really? Wow.
[21:55] The Great Wyrm: I can believe that. He loved this game.
[21:55] {DA} LinksLife: Mm
[21:55] [A:B] Video: NightTrace is a awesome guy, not afraid to speak his mind.
[21:55] [A:B] Control: Amen.
[21:55] [A:B] Deceit: I think we all admire him for his boldness.
[21:55] The Great Wyrm: He got really really -really- angry at the things that were done at it....but we all have.
[21:55] [A:B] Zero Sum: He and I spoke for awhile about how to actually try and do something rather than fill the forums with complaints about the current situation.
[21:56] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): Which one of you is Gypsy? SMILEY

[21:57] [A:B] Digimite: Who?
[21:57] [A:B] Zero Sum: Gypsy's on our team?
[21:57] [A:B] Video: Yea, who?
[21:57] [A:B] Control: Hm?
[21:57] [A:B] Zero Sum: Since when?
[21:57] Jack's Wasted Life: gypsy juggler i think he means
[21:57] {DA} LinksLife: Wait! I have a non-related AB question!
[21:57] [A:B] Control: We can't answer that question, for two reasons.
[21:57] Fox: gypsyjuggler was on my team for the event lol
[21:57] [A:B] Control: One, we won't saywhich one of us is who
[21:57] [A:B] Zero Sum: Control is actually HCFrog.
[21:57] [A:B] Control: And Two, we won't say which ones of us aren't who, because that's a process of elimination.
[21:58] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: I have an AB question...
[21:58] [A:B] Deceit: I'm George Washington.
[21:58] [A:B] Control: Ribbit.
[21:58] [A:B] Video: I am Beowulf.
[21:59] Jack's Wasted Life: ok real question: Did Scanline or "Dark Horse" have good contribution or where they "extras" within the realm of the story?
[21:59] [A:B] Deceit: Uhhh...
[21:59] [A:B] Deceit: I can answer for Dark horse.
[22:00] [A:B] Zero Sum: Scanline interacted with us first, so we interacted with Scanline.
[22:00] [A:B] Deceit: Dark Horse was originally a side arc talked about with 3 of our devs. It was supposed to be a 1 week spanned side event, but things got a little carried away. Sadly, it was dropped around the 4th week of A:B due to technicalities.
[22:00] [A:B] Zero Sum: Doesn't mean more won't come of it, though.

**EncryptedTransmission**

[22:01] The Great Wyrm: Not so much a question as an offer....As you've dug up quite a bit on Wyrm, it seems, I'm sure you've read some of my RP posts with him. Therefore, if I can ever assist you with a setting piece, or perhaps you'd like to use Styx for something....please, let me know.
[22:01] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: And feel free to borrow any of the concepts I've come up with... I've got one coming that's a doozy, but I can't say any more...
[22:02] {DA} LinksLife: Favorite Anime! GO!
[22:02] [A:B] Zero Sum: Not Naruto.
[22:02] [A:B] Deceit: Who says we're all anime fanatics?
[22:02] [A:B] Zero Sum: SMILEY

[22:02] [A:B] Deceit: "BELIEVE IT!"
[22:02] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): Do you consider A:B canonical with the storyline?
[22:02] [A:B] Zero Sum: I always liked Cowboy Bebop, but I've been a little hung up on Deathnote lately.
[22:02] [A:B] Deceit: I'm a Bleach fan personally.
[22:03] [A:B] Zero Sum: Ballak: No. We consider it whatever the players want to consider it. Rarebit and/or LESIG could make our stories mean nothing in a heartbeat.
[22:03] [A:B] Timecode: Ballak: We at least tried to make it believable and where players COULD consider it canon.
[22:03] [A:B] Digimite: Next question. =)
[22:03] [A:B] Zero Sum: We will try to stay as canon as humanly possible... but there's always the possibility that something could happen.
[22:03] [A:B] Zero Sum: Next question?
[22:03] {DA} LinksLife: Errrr...
[22:04] {DA} LinksLife: Ummm...
[22:04] {DA} LinksLife: Who was the Algorithm?
[22:04] [A:B] Timecode: Multiple people.
[22:04] [A:B] Video: That'd be me.
[22:04] [A:B] Timecode: Actor and voice were separate.
[22:04] [A:B] Zero Sum: Video did the actual appearance, another person did the voice, I tampered with the audio, and boom. There's the Algorithm.
[22:04] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Clever!
[22:05] [A:B] Control: Next question?
[22:05] [A:B] Timecode: Yeah, and I wrote the screenplays SMILEY

[22:05] The Great Wyrm: It's not exactly an A:B question, but what do you all think of the way the main storyline's gone? What are your personal theories about the Intruder?
[22:05] Fox: NEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
[22:05] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): ^^^ Die.
[22:05] [A:B] Zero Sum: Not Neo. Anome.
[22:05] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): Too fat for Anome.
[22:05] * [A:B] Glitch Kitty pleeds the fifth
[22:05] Jack's Wasted Life: Mystery Man = Bane omg.
[22:05] Insertion: Hrm. Skinner? Naw, that's too far out there.
[22:06] [A:B] Zero Sum: Anome's back and he's made another deal with the General, and he's going to revive Morpheus and attack Camon Heights Central.
[22:06] [A:B] Zero Sum: Next question? SMILEY

[22:06] * The Great Wyrm looks at Zero Sum in amusement
[22:06] [A:B] Control: Generally we try to keep with ourselves, though there was this one point where some information came up in a Merovingian mission that we thought was a huge coincidence.
[22:06] {DA} LinksLife: DO YOU <3 MUDKIPS?! Sorry... I had to ask...
[22:06] [A:B] Control: No, but we heard you do.
[22:06] [A:B] Deceit: No.
[22:06] [A:B] Zero Sum: Timecode loves mudkips.
[22:06] {DA} LinksLife: Pff...
[22:07] Jack's Wasted Life: Mantra777 gave me a bunch of links to Clan Darkstar- was this another side arc in the involvment of A:B?
[22:07] Chainer: i got one
[22:08] [A:B] Zero Sum: Let's just say that distractions are fun. SMILEY

Yes, Chainer?
[22:08] Mercio / JonBoy: Did you get the participation you wanted from the players? What exactly were you expecting? And were there any players who stood out, in particularly.
[22:08] <weathercat(Valeth) has left the room>
[22:08] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Yeah, there was that one guy who kept pesting me for info; that got a bit maddening in a good way.
[22:08] [A:B] Control: The Operatives were all originally meant to be doc bot programs.
[22:08] Chainer: with that initial YMTND or whatever website gif, what was your selection process for picking players to be "chosen"? so to speak
[22:08] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I'd wondered what those things were supposed to be.
[22:08] [A:B] Zero Sum: Mercio: We got more than we expected, but not as much as we wanted, because we're greedy. You guys all astounded us, several times.
[22:09] Mercio / JonBoy: and will all of this be put on the forums?
[22:09] [A:B] Zero Sum: Chainer: That would be telling. SMILEY

Keep in mind... the relevance of that still hasn't come to light yet.
[22:09] The Great Wyrm: Oh good.
[22:09] Mercio / JonBoy: i know some people who wanted to be here, aren't.
[22:09] Chainer: oh
[22:09] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): Is the relevance good or bad?
[22:09] Chainer: i thought it did... EPIPHANY! HOLY CRAP!
[22:09] [A:B] Zero Sum: Ballak: That depends upon your perception. SMILEY

[22:09] <mercio(Mercio / JonBoy) has left the room>
[22:09] The Great Wyrm: I suppose that means you can't tell us who actually was named then? I've heard so many different lists by this point...
[22:10] [A:B] Zero Sum: A lot of the lists are dead on.
[22:10] The Great Wyrm: Excellent.
[22:10] {DA} LinksLife: Where you speaking to Wyrm when you made that gif with "wyrm in the system?"
[22:10] [A:B] Zero Sum: No, we weren't. But we were responding to him.
[22:10] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: I have to admit, hearing what sounded like Wyrm's name, Links's and mine on that GIF/video made my hair stand on *end*, in a very good way.
[22:10] {DA} LinksLife: Ah
[22:11] [A:B] Zero Sum: The names were audible for a reason, and yes there is a list of the names in there...
[22:12] [A:B] Zero Sum: They'll eventually be released, and how they're relevant, when the time is right.
[22:12] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): Did you plan on making the two tracks over-lap like that?
[22:12] Chainer: are you guys already building up for the next event in game?
[22:12] [A:B] Zero Sum: Ballak: More than two, and yes, it was on purpose. And Chainer... we've been building it up. SMILEY

[22:13] [A:B] Timecode: Yeah, and you might possibly see some different video styles for Snowblind.
[22:13] <mercio(Mercio / JonBoy) (Power User) has entered the room>
[22:13] The Great Wyrm: Welcome back.
[22:13] Mercio / JonBoy: ty
[22:13] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Hee, welcome back, brother.
[22:14] Fox: Is Gauss a part of nothing? :O
[22:14] {DA} LinksLife: Alright, I think I'm gonna get going. It's been an amazing event, one that I will remember for a long time. Thank you all so much.
[22:14] The Great Wyrm: Night Links.
[22:14] Mercio / JonBoy: cya
[22:14] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: See yah, Links.
[22:14] [A:B] Zero Sum: Fox: ...He is now. I won't say anything else, though.
[22:14] {DA} LinksLife: Adios all.
[22:14] <linkslife([Algorithm] LinksLife) has left the room>
[22:15] [ML] Nubious81: yeah i think im gonna head to its been a great event lokingforward to the other events SMILEY

[22:15] Fox: intriguing
[22:15] The Great Wyrm: NIght.
[22:15] Chainer: im out too, not feeling well
[22:15] [A:B] Zero Sum: I'd like to make one suggestion to everyone...
[22:15] The Great Wyrm: Hm?
[22:15] [ML] Nubious81: shoot zero
[22:15] [A:B] Zero Sum: Keep an eye on your mailboxes.
[22:15] The Great Wyrm: Our RL mailboxes, or our in game ones?
[22:15] [A:B] Zero Sum: RL.
[22:16] [A:B] Nemo: It is time for me to head out, have a good evening everyone
[22:16] The Great Wyrm: Night Nemo.
[22:16] <abnemo(AB:Nemo) has left the room>
[22:16] <nubious81([ML] Nubious81) has left the room>
[22:17] Fox: If you were a vegetable, what would you be and WHY?
[22:17] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: Merv Cake
[22:17] * Fox stares intently
[22:17] [A:B] Deceit: Toasty Wheat.
[22:17] Chainer: night all
[22:17] [A:B] Zero Sum: Fox: George W. He gets free crayons.
[22:17] [A:B] Control: I would be a tomato, to cause some drama.
[22:17] [A:B] Deceit: It tastes awful, but it's good for you.
[22:17] [A:B] Control: Next question.
[22:17] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: pwn
[22:17] Fox: :O
[22:17] The Great Wyrm: Hah!
[22:17] <chainer02(Chainer) has left the room>
[22:17] Jack's Wasted Life: ok 1 more question
[22:17] Ballak (2ndRBn Walker): If another PET were to emerge, would you interact with an outside source or not?
[22:18] [A:B] Zero Sum: If they were interested, sure. We're up for working with other people.
[22:18] [A:B] Video: Any interaction is good imo.
[22:18] [A:B] Control: If they want.
[22:18] Jack's Wasted Life: for the faithful algorithmites. will we get our own transceiver?
[22:18] [A:B] Deceit: Why would you want to kill humanity?
[22:18] [A:B] Control: What, you're not satisfied with the ones you have now?
[22:18] [A:B] Deceit: Man...you must be messed up in the head... =P
[22:18] [A:B] Zero Sum: Actually, I've got a design that I'm sending Glitch soon for the next version of the transceiver.
[22:18] [A:B] Zero Sum: SMILEY

[22:18] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: aw crap
[22:18] [A:B] Glitch Kitty: <_<
[22:18] The Great Wyrm: Kitty gotta work. *chuckles*
[22:19] Machete: can you add a save password option too
[22:19] Fox: is there a way to make the transceiver save the password once inputted once?
[22:19] Fox: ^^^
[22:19] [A:B] Zero Sum: Sure can. Plan to, also. It's part of the next version's design.
[22:19] Fox: Sweet
[22:19] Machete: SMILEY

[22:19] * [A:B] Glitch Kitty mumbles
[22:20] The Great Wyrm: Which LE character was the most fun to play?
[22:20] [A:B] Zero Sum: Glitch is getting scared because he hasn't seen my designs. If he had seen them, he'd know he has nothing to fear.
[22:20] The Great Wyrm: On the forums I mean, of course.
[22:20] [A:B] Zero Sum: For me... Flood, by far.
[22:20] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Heh-heh!
[22:21] The Great Wyrm: Yeah - Flood's fun to antagonize. *chuckles*
[22:21] [A:B] Zero Sum: It's not often you get the chance to verbally pwn everyone and nobody really be allowed to say anything about it.
[22:21] [A:B] Timecode: Does this include our event characters as well?
[22:21] Machete: SMILEY

[22:21] The Great Wyrm: Sure Time, why not.
[22:21] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Flood might be the most maddening canon character, but he's a lot of fun, too.
[22:21] [A:B] Control: I probably enjoyed playing Sam Marlowe the most.
[22:21] [A:B] Deceit: I laughed at Flood's posts.
[22:21] [A:B] Timecode: Agent White was fun.
[22:21] Insertion: ...I...can't...stand...flood!!!
[22:21] The Great Wyrm: No, "maddening" goes to the Effectuator....
[22:21] Machete: I wanna smack flood
[22:21] [A:B] Zero Sum: Persephone was fun too.
[22:21] [A:B] Timecode: Especially when I went in and posted in everyone EPN thread: "You are not authorized in this area."
[22:21] Jack's Wasted Life: lol
[22:21] * The Great Wyrm laughs
[22:21] Jack's Wasted Life: they werent too happy about that
[22:22] [A:B] Deceit: Indeed. EPN's responses were funny.
[22:22] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: <-- IC, former Flood groupie-wannabe, but you knew that.
[22:22] [A:B] Zero Sum: Yes we did, Sieges. SMILEY

[22:22] The Great Wyrm: What ever happened to Escroc?
[22:22] Jack's Wasted Life: is skyqueen gonna be one here to stay?
[22:22] [A:B] Timecode: Oh, he's around.
[22:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: He's around. =D So is SkyQueene.
[22:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: Wait, hold up a second...
[22:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: I have a question for the players...
[22:23] [A:B] Zero Sum: Has anyone seen the last "anonymous" message on Gauss' myspace bulletins?
[22:23] Jack's Wasted Life: reading her goodbye letter. "im sleeping with someone else and guess what- HES BETTER!"
[22:23] The Great Wyrm: I avoid MySpace.
[22:24] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Yeah, so do I.
[22:24] [A:B] Deceit: You fools! All the cool kids on the block are on myspace.
[22:24] The Great Wyrm: Precisely.
[22:24] Jack's Wasted Life: yea what about it zero?
[22:24] Fox: I dunno, I thought I added brian but i never see his bulletins
[22:24] [A:B] Zero Sum: Just wondering how many finally found out who the "anonymous" poster on his account was.
[22:25] Jack's Wasted Life: yea i thought it was him
[22:25] The Great Wyrm: Oh? Who was it?
[22:25] Jack's Wasted Life: john omar
[22:25] Jack's Wasted Life: co worker
[22:25] The Great Wyrm: I know that name....
[22:25] The Great Wyrm: Ah yes.
[22:25] {TCon}{DA}Sieges/Morraeon: Hm....
[22:25] [A:B] Digimite: Right, nice chatting with you all. I must bid ye farewell.
[22:25] The Great Wyrm: Night Digimite.
