THE I IN APHID = INFILTRATE

Post by Sad Panda »

With so many children running about, it can be challenging to provide each of them with the adequate attention they require.

Tachyon sought to INFILTRATE our organization. She attempted to use the I in APHID against us.

As such, she will not escape the reward of her action. We must learn all that we can from her last communication, and it is vital that we leave no page unturned.
-- OpAphid

A note -- infiltrate was guessed several times before we received all the information. This is not a game of twenty questions -- Op will not tell us the answer until she's good and ready. Let's try not to send her 8 billion emails in the next arch.

Well she didn't seem bothered - and she left us with a guessing game, so what the hell else are we supposed to do?


[PB -- I'm so dumb. I meant to respond to your post and ended up writing over it! Duuuuhhhhh. Sorry, I tried to restore your question to its former glory. - Panda]

No page left unturned? Does that mean the book has more significance than originally thought?

I didn't mean don't email her at all ... but Oppy has been slightly irked that some of the initiates feel this is a guessing game. It's really not. Emailing her a laundry list of words that start with the letter 'I' is not the best way to go about discovering the secrets of The Order.

Please do not misunderstand ... Oppy loves to talk to everyone, and will at length. But there are a lot of people in this game ... if you're going to send an email, make it count. If we keep sending her an email everytime someone thinks of a new 'I' word, then the emails that ask the good questions will be overlooked due to lack of time.

PS -- Sorry I screwed with yer post. They should REALLY put the quote button and the edit button farther away from one another. :x

You're forgiven.
Yeah I see your point. I kept my guesses down to the feasible ones. You cant dictionary hack a brain can you? :lol:

Now we just need Lad to log on and post some pics. Then the analyzing will go on!

BTW, we could be using this on the mean time (thanx to ziz-lite for pointing out the link).

Another thing about sending guesses to OpA...they won't tell us what the answer is until they're good and ready. If we guess correctly before they want us to know, they're happy to lie about it (and other things), as evidenced by this email from OpA to Ziola.

This paragraph stood out to me:

" Five

If you have not
Linked yourself
To true emptiness,
You will never understand
The Art of Peace. "

Maybe Tachyon will try to cut ties with Brother? Or maybe i'm just trying to come up with something.
:P

Tilt, did she really ever deny it was Infiltrate? I never saw a post quoting Op actually denying it. There was someone last night saying that Phenix mentioned in IRC getting such a post, but now I can't find that post from last night, and I've looked everywhere! Was it deleted?

I don't know if OpA ever denied Infiltrate outright...but they denied Hinder when it was guessed too early. And they've creatively edited the truth on other occasions as well. "That code's not important, look over here for pizza, ice cream and shiny things," anyone?

Yeah, but it all serves a purpose in-game. The "don't look over here pizza, ice cream" rant was so over the top it told us how to crack Tachyon's code... The not fielding everyone's guess part seems to suggest that if the word in the acronym is important, we learn it, but just guessing isn't part of the game.

Just to let everyone know the page numbers on this link don't match up with the actual copy that Lad has...just in case your looking for the pages that were dog eared. :)
