In Response To: Captain, not everybody is blowing you off... (ISitInA)


First, a bit about myself so you don't get the idea that I'm a random account made to perpetuate an ARG.

My name is Guy, I'm a long time lurker on all things games, but mostly Halo the last 10 years.

My XBL tag is Guywiired, it's my second account, my first being Guywired. Both were/are bungie.net accounts.

Some time in Sept 2010 I started lurking about the Waypoint forums, and the otherday a thread over there, pointed me to this thread over here.

Normally I would have been content with just reading the updates about this ARG, but this time I caught the fever.

I e-mailed Hive yesterday:
--------------------------------------------
Hive,

Current time and date please.

I don't want to be late for any appointments.

-Captain
---------------------------------------------

Today I get the reply:

---------------------------------------------
bzzt! The date is currently 03/15/2612, 1723 SST
---------------------------------------------

So I e-mailed back:

---------------------------------------------
Hmmm,

Hive, I'm going to miss my appointment with XO McAllister at the air lock. Can you have her file a report with you regarding our meeting instead? Let her know I'll reply as soon as I can.

Also, can you resend me the updates for you which XO McAllister had previously submitted for my approval?

Please and Thank you,

-Captain
-----------------------------------

I'm probably heading down the wrong path on this, but I thought you guys would appreciate an update.

I'll let you know what else I find.

: Captain,

: I recently came across your request for information on Orion F484. How you
: even came across his name is beyond me, let alone what few salient facts
: you seem to possess. Considering the classified nature of the events
: surrounding everything that transpired, it's no surprise that your request
: was shot dead. I'm going to give you a gentle word of advice – keep up
: your requests, and you'll be the same way.

: But there are two types of people in ONI. There are those who work behind a
: desk and whose monitors are tinted rose, or there's people who work in the
: field enough to know when to let the rules occasionally slip by the
: wayside. Sometimes by leaking information to select individuals you can
: get a return on your investment, so to speak. Other times... Well.

: Your rebuttal to the initial denial is surprisingly detailed. The reasons you
: listed are, in fact, valid. Surprisingly so. The people in charge of these
: things may have said no, but I feel that the risk is worth it.

: While I have access to all the information that you've requested, getting it
: to you will take some time. I have to move slowly. The combination of
: files, audio reports, and reconstructed footage from troopers can't be
: moved instantly without drawing attention. It would do neither of us any
: good if I were to be caught. I've set up a site that you'll have to log
: into in order to gain access to the information.

: If you need to contact me for some unknown reason, I've set up an account.
: Most of the time, don't hold your breath waiting for an answer. But when I
: can, and when I feel like it...

: And, obviously, all of this remaining a secret shouldn't even need to be
: mentioned.

: Sincerely,

: Chair

: ***********
: Note by Hive: BZZT! Captain, I have encountered additional encrypted data
: within this message using a separate key. The encryption keys are old
: enough to be added to my own databanks upon my creation due to our
: frequent status in the outer regions of humanity's occupied zone, in case
: we encountered any of the number of missing ships from the war. Below is
: the unencrypted message.
