[Solved] The Callback(s): What was being asked of us? 10/31

Post by covedweller »

In light of the phone calls some people received, this message now has some perspective as an instruction, does it not?


Well done.

But remember, each success only buys an admission ticket to a more difficult problem.

It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.

Mistakes are the portals of discovery. Alas, never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.

It is possible to fail in many ways, while to succeed is possible only in one way: Do what’s right, the right way, at the right time.

A story is told as much by silence as by speech...except in this case.

And then wait for further instruction.




It seems that those who said nothing got a pass. Those who revealed secrets got a failing grade.

Anyone who actually got a call care to offer their take on this in hindsight?

I got a call, and I completely agree. I didn't give away any info and I passed. Also, the part about allowing your enemy to make a mistake....he let a few mistakes slip, himself! For instance, he called his sister his partner a few times...

That is exactly how I saw it, as well. One thing that was not shared in the forums, to my knowledge, was something that Noava22 mentioned. The phone was tapped and the call was being monitored by Operation Aphid. So it truly was a test of loyalty to their organization. However, it appears that not many were prepared to choose a side until they learned more.

Vmail is definitely more clear. And I must say it was awsome to yell at the guy and demand answers from him. I appriciate them using an actual guy, not a recording. 8)
