So I’d like to ask the attendants of this event a few questions. I am not sure if this is the section in which one would do that, but if it’s not, my apologies, please sentries feel free to move it to whatever section it belongs in.
1. Did anyone do any research on the location (if this is even allowed)? Does anyone know who the building is owned by, if it’s being rented, the age of the building, the last time it was brought up to code? Is it the same address or near the same address as the last event?
2. @atticus360, did you ask for Cello girl’s name and she refused to give it to you, or did she just say something when you walked up to avoid that question altogether? Was she wearing a nametag? Did anyone else attempt to talk to her? Where did she go after she finished playing on stage?
3. Besides @atticus360 and @mkarrett, did anyone else attending the event not get their names X-ed out?
4. Out of curiousity, how many of you were told to tell lies (like @halfgreekgoddess) and how many were told to tell truths/secrets (like @monkeymuffin333)? Might be an interesting comparison.
5. This is going to sound completely random, but did anyone catch the name of the girl in the Pastor joke? Many remember the cars, and you’ve said she’s 16. But when the man told the joke, did he mention the girl’s name?
Just some inquiries. Let me know if you can. It was fun reading about the event in such detail from so many different perspectives. You all sound like such lovely folks! Thank you for your time.

Well @sovereignskies, let it be known I have no intention of dividing the group, I merely speak my mind. I had not seen the other statement, alluding to more content yet to be pulled from the analysis of what has already been posted by Tension, and I 100% believe that is possible, even probable. My only response is that in this particular case with these numbers alone that perhaps we are spinning our wheels. I know there is much left to find within Tension. I just don’t know if any of it can be found within these numbers, at least not with what information we have been given thus far. Perhaps their relevance will be revealed later? Still, I would never discourage you to give up your search. If you find meaning behind them I will gladly admit I was mistaken.

I originally thought the string of numbers might mean something too @sovereignskies, back when I was first solving the puzzle. But after sitting on the analysis for a long time and playing out all possible scenarios, I believe @thegilded is right in this case, and there is nothing more to see here. If there is some hidden meaning behind said numbers, I believe it will come to light only when the OOA wants it to, not when we dig hard enough. I am absolutely open to being wrong about this, there are certainly many things I’ve been wrong about before. Hell, it’s one of the reasons I seek enlightenment. But I believe the next puzzle will come when the OOA is ready to release it, that it will be something that is obviously new and yet to be analyzed, and that the only reason they are tracking us so closely is because they want to monitor our involvement so that they may decide who is worthy of moving forward, particularly so close to their upcoming event. Just my two cents.

Personally I have my fingers crossed for @erin. Though she hasn’t been one of the most active on the forums recently, she was one of the first to join the movement. She’s made plenty of contact in the past, has been one of the biggest advocates in spreading the word publicly, and has always been willing to lend a helping hand in solving the puzzles. Plus, she’s just a spectacular girl to be on a journey to enlightenment with. So OOA, if anyone is lurking around or listening on here, I nominate her. Glory be.

I received an e-mail this morning from LOVE as well telling me I seemed like “such an honest person” and asking to “get to know me better”. I’m glad they’ve been properly dealt with.

[Iris HalliwellParticipant]

Creepy as hell but so visually enticing. Well done.

I REALLY want to try a live escape game, I’ve been aching to give it a shot for months. I’ve heard the options in LA are a scream. House of Leaves is brilliant and I’d recommend it to anyone. I’d recommend Godel, Escher, Bach (it’s a single book title) for anyone with a logician type brain. Also I don’t know if any of you have played The Room, as in the video game, and The Room 2, but they were both quite enjoyable for me. Might be a bit quick for some of our puzzle masters, but they’d still get a rush from completion. Any more suggestions on logic puzzle type video games are greatly appreciated, I’m a *little* obsessed.

I seek enlightenment because my entire life has been a slow realization that this world is not for me, and that for whatever reason, I have never been happy and honest at the same time. I do not want to believe this is because happiness in itself is a lie. I think that for me to experience happiness while in the ambiance of the nefarious nature of human beings and the sickening social constructs they have created, I had to shut myself off from everything around me, almost pretending it didn’t exist. But this is incredibly isolating, not to mention unsustainable. So rather than shut myself off from it to maintain a falsified happiness, I need to rise above it to achieve enlightenment.

“Last night I lost the world, and gained the universe.”

I know enlightenment is a destructive process. It is essentially the degradation of every untruth we cling to, the discomfort of shattering every facade that keeps us safe. But God, it has to be better than the empty happiness that lies provide.
