Excellent thread. Would read again.

I'm pretty sure SOE requires you to have a second account to read the thread a second time. One account per read.

-- just fair warning if u try to come back and read this again.

Previous Clue: Stand Under The Yellow in the direction of the code from the tail devouring snake.

The tail devouring snake is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouroboros

The Ouroboros monument has a big yellow crane just to the north of it (code flows north)

If you are sure you are right, but no one is there, post a screenshot to prove you were there first.

Go to http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/....m?forum_id=105 to see the final clue

Stage 2: Find the Purple Center. If you see a hair dresser away from the code flow you are correct.

Solution: Purple subways make a triangle... in the middle is a road. Just to the south of the middle is a hair dresser sign.

Code flows North. Always. (Load up some coder abilities and you will see)

Previous Puzzle: The Church of Red vs Blue

Solution: What church is between a Red subway station and a Blue subway station (right near where they cross?)

Next clue / location:

Find the Purple Center. If you see a hair dresser away from the code flow you are correct.

I'll be near the second location off and on tonight.

Rules:

TasteeWheat2 or a representative will be logged in as much as possible to be available to give the next clue AT the correct location.

After you find the first location and get the next clue you are welcome to search for the location, but the representative won't arrive at the location until after a post is made here in this thread or in the forums with the new clue (which you would already have received if you found the previous location).

There are 4 locations (1 per day?)

Point for arriving first... 1000

Points for showing up at the location... 500

Winner will get their points converted to cash (1 point = 1 cent/ 4000 points = $40. woot $40 dollars!!!!) sent via paypal.

Points taken away for constantly asking for hints cuz you cant figure out the clue... 1million

At the last day whoever has the most points wins that much cash paid via paypal. (Second place gets nothing) In the event of a tie there will be a duel. Winner gets the cash.

And then I'm out till i get sucked back in again.

First Location: The Church of Red vs Blue

Look at the representative's details for the next clue if you get no response.

I'm gonna go ahead and get this out of the way now. I won't be hacking the game or exploiting things or anything like that.

There I said it. Now I can't get banned by Brewko again.

I may do a follow the semi cryptic clues event... but some of these non-exploit ideas seem interesting... Feel free to continue to discuss SMILEY

Discuss SMILEY

I'm gonna wait a few months to see how it actually goes. Nothing goes as planned in Mxo. SMILEY

Thanks for the welcome SMILEY

I came to celebrate Mxo's 3 year anniversary (and give SOE $14.99)

I may pop in and out the next few weeks, but it you want to find me, there is updated contact info for me on matrixreport.com

3rd Anniversary party was fun. Server crashed (sorta) meatwads all around, crazy lag and so on. Par for the course for Mxo parties SMILEY

Good Times... maybe I'll be back for the 4th year anniversary.

Also. Regarding Paul Chadwick leaving and the people badmouthing him and so on..
Having actually met and talked to him in person (back at comic con way back when) I think it is a good move for him. He had some really great ideas for the game and early on was way more involved in the event planning then you would think. But his ideas simply required too much dev time to make work so they never happened. If they had been able to implement alot of his ideas, MxO would be a much different place then it is now (in a good way I think). But, writing something vs programming and coding and 3d artwork and all that are two very different things, so the team did as good as they could to bring his ideas to light.

Wish the best of luck to him in his future endeavors.

I'm downloading, I will try to make the party on syntax. Wow, 3 years. A Lot has happened. Here is hoping I can get it up and running by then.

I get that from time to time.
My Simple 3 step solution that works every time is this:

1) Exit MXO
2) Start (or restart) MxO
3) Repeat as necessary.

They realized they could make just as much money with just the forums so they sold the servers.

LOL. Ain't that the truth.

A rollback has happened before. I just can't remember what they gave (if anything) as compensation. We are on track for about 1 every year. Not too bad SMILEY

Hey, im not kidding. we all pay for this CRAP. I deserve compensation of any sort which i feel is appropriate. And ill keep on this until i get said compensation.

Make one person happy with your business, they will tell 10 people.
Make one person UNHAPPY with your business, they will tell 1000 people.

Get the idea?

Your sentiments are understood and expected.. but have you actually read the EULA you agree to when you log in? SOE doesn't owe us squat because we agreed that they owe us nothing. That being said, I'd be surprised if they didn't try and come up with something to keep people happy. SOE isn't known for being all warm and fuzzy or listening to their customers; BUT they do try when they can. Lately they seem to be trying harder to improve customer relations (note: the lighter side of Brewko for example). Rest assured we will get something. But a lot of us won't be happy with it--however it will be better then nothing.

#2 wins.. http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/..._id=36300013583

But this sucks I grinded myself and another person up yesterday. I lost 2 levels. *sigh*

Bah.. "Toon" is a perfectly respectable name for your character. Chances are MxO isnt the only MMO they have played.

Tastee i kinda wish you did buy mxo now...

Would have been a good thing (IMHO) But it isn't happening.

These are MY guesses on the near future of Mxo Regarding Server Outage, feel free to add your own.

1) Something in the patch really screwed things up and they will have to roll us all back to before the last patch.
    25% chance

2) Some *server* hardware issue that was unrecoverable and we will go back to last backup once they get a new machine up and running. (yesterday probably)
    75% chance

3) A *network* harware issue. Once fixed all is fine (not likely due to how long it has been)
    10% chance

4) Rarebit finally had it with us and paid a network guy to put a .45 or 2 in the server.
    68% chance

5) Walrus forgot to click the OK button on "Do you want MXO to keep running on the weekend? [OK/Cancel] Dialog box"
    85% chance

6) Some *server* hardware issue that was unrecoverable (but didn't affect the character database) and we will go back everything the way it was with free XP weekend or free beta clothes or some other such reward for our time.
    95% chance

Short answer: not really

I managed to get it up to the point where it tries to authenticate my account with the following:
Wine (latest version), Ubuntu, IE6 (wine hack install)

I got far enough to get some sort of "unsupported protocol error" after the login.

So unless you really feel like fighting the computer, keep a windows box around for games and such. Linux for most everything else.

Note: You can get WoW working relatively easy with crossover office (which is really just a *supported* version of wine.)

Unfortunatly not at present I'd like to look into getting it automated but it is running aslong as i can have it on and i've been keeping things running as much as i can. As i said its still in beta stage and being tested so if theres anyone that would like to help give me a shout and tell my how you can
All above names added! but pyro,arach and havo what are your orgs?

Be careful about automating it. Any sort of bot (no matter how awesome and good for the community) is against the EULA.

Your map doesn't make any sense. Can you make a non-blurry one without the lines and just the numbers?

The numbers are the approximate locations of each of Morpheus's appearances. (1 = first, 2 = second and so on)

A Non blurry PNG (1.6Meg) can be downloaded here the background will still be blurry, but the numbers and lines won't.

One of the last crits Ghost says he thinks morpheus is trying to give us a location....

If you map out his appearences You see.. an "N" (neo)
You see two distincitve places it is pointing to...

One is probably nothing but the other points straight to Neo's RSI.

The machines say they left it there for us. But we have known them to be dishonest in the past....

Perhaps Neo's RSI there is morpheus' doing and he needs us to do something there....

Here is the map.. let the Drama begin.
