Random thoughts. We knew III was going to be killed, and I’m pretty sure we expected Four to die or disappear at some point due to the nature of being a Gatekeeper, and it was a surprise that she was still around while III was active.

We rooted for Four while her and Addison made the pill to kill III. I don’t remember anyone speaking up against it, but I’m also not in a position at the moment to dig through the forum.

We were shocked when Addison killed Four, but we anticipated her becoming @gatekeeper2 due to the drop for @111error, and therefore room needed to be made.

To me personally, the most shocking thing was @thebuz actually doing the killing. But if we weren’t expecting the death of both Four and III, and we’re not expecting the death of @gatekeeper2 to make room for @gatekeeper1, then we’re just kidding ourselves.

This post is not a celebration or condonation of murder or death, and maybe we didn’t expect it to happen this way, but it was inevitable, right? Gatekeepers seem to have a pretty short shelf-life.

@regent7 it is wonderful to hear that knowledge is incoming and that @atticus360 will deliver it.

@electrichippo: next list of allegiances, mark me down as a fan of 7?

[Addison BornParticipant]

@gatekeeper2 – When you went by Addison, I stood by your side. The last time I saw you at the mixer, you were terrified, and told me to not appear to involved, to not be influenced, to avoid getting too close to the OOA. You’d been through their ringer and shared knowledge for us to get through as well.

We all watched as you were dragged out, against your will. A man we still assume was your father screamed about uncovering what the OOA has been doing to his Addi, and how we were all at fault.

We heard what happened to Mark, or Benny, or however he wishes to be called, and it was a result of the OOA’s influence. He was desperate for answers and now he’s dead.

Weeks later, we watch you murder @gatekeeper4 in broad daylight, as an apparent oath to the OOA.

What changed for you? The longer you wait to share some sort of knowledge, the stronger BoS’s following becomes. They may exist in a grey area, but they at least seem to be providing clarity for their members. Enlightenment may come later, but with no answers, the number of members here willing to continue to pledge blindly to the OOA are reducing.

[Addison BornParticipant]

@reaton Agreed. I can’t imagine anyone looking forward to this regardless of affiliation, but the cards are on the table..

The only way for the BoS to end the OOA is by ending their gatekeepers. The only way for the OOA to continue is by ending GK2. This is something she must have known when she took the mantle, at least that’s what we’d expect. I can’t imagine Four taking Addison under her wing and not telling her the outcome of being a Gatekeeper?

Our one possible out – we know that word that may snap her out of it, but at this point would it have any effect? Or is she too far removed for it to be meaningful?

[Addison BornParticipant]

Whoa. I figured it was a resolution issue but yeah, taking another look it’s definitely a different box. Apart from the markings, the box pictured is sorta crushed, vs the clean, more structured box in the video. Very very sus.

[Addison BornParticipant]

Thinking about this – III (or someone on III’s account) asked that it be Periscoped, and if the assassination didn’t occur, it would have been a largely uneventful meeting. Buz came in, dropped the box, grabbed a beer, and was led back out.

Something’s pretty sus here, to me at least. I feel like III knew something was going down here.

[Addison BornParticipant]

Yeah, I was expecting it to be a much longer meeting!! That was definitely a quick one, but seemingly effective.

[Addison BornParticipant]

…eh

[Addison BornParticipant]

I didn’t receive a call yesterday so this may be different, but with literally any correspondence with Tension where discretion may possibly be appreciated, kayfabe is broken, or any sort of private or possibly private info is shared, maybe we as a community make it our responsibility to ask explicitly if the info is to be made public rather than assuming that because they didn’t say it’s a private conversation that it isn’t? Maybe it was implied?

Happy for you to have gotten a call though.

[Addison BornParticipant]

Whoa, literally on the same brainwaves.

Before, we wondered who 242 was, and now we wonder who 1 will be – what if they are the same? The OOA and their numbered are acting in a cycle. “The New Dawn” being the beginning/ending of the cycle, the sun rises (ascension) and we enter the light.

[Addison BornParticipant]

Dude don’t talk shit about Hackers. HACK THE PLANET!!

[Addison BornParticipant]

Knowing @atticus360‘s love of stirring the pot.. I can’t imagine he’d keep this info to himself for very long. At least we can only hope it’s information he’s allowed to share.

@gatekeeper2 I understand what’s going on and the difficult position you’re in. However, it’s difficult to follow someone with the OOA without any reason. Exactly what’s behind the door aside, for what reason should we trust you to even lead us to someone that can open the door? The last Gatekeeper turned out to be a fraud. The Gatekeeper before him is dead. The Gatekeeper before her has been silent.

The OOA’s track record over the past few months has been spotty. And with you, many of us have history. You’re not one of the faceless Gatekeepers, we know you used to be one of us.

In the past, you trusted us and we trusted you. But I think before we can follow you (or at least before I can follow you), you need to show us why we can trust you.
