Since we got experience points and information boosted, is it possible to boost the mission rep gain so some of us can actually reach 127 rep?

Just curious.

Party!!! Party hardy! ^-^

... makes me wanna party! I'm going to Dave & Busters and Gameworks for ten days straight and eat nothing but Taco Bell during that period. ^-^

Uh oh. I just checked the official Matrix site. It seems to have been completely converted into a site for the upcoming Bluray release of the Ultimate Matrix Collection. I can't seem to find a way to access the old site, assuming it still exists.

I guess it's not a complete surprise. The site's been sitting in disrepair for a while now. Many of the videos and Quicktime VR files were missing. And the last Matrix-related news on the site was about the release of MxO, after that it was just some news about V for Vendetta. It's still sad, though. SMILEY

Edit: Well, good news is that I can still access the "missing comic", so something of the site still exists.

Anyone else having a problem with the mission system? I keep getting the "Sorry, I don't have any missions for you in this district" message. I've tried different districts, logging off and back in, and different servers, and I'm still getting this.

How about a mission ticket that immediately opens up a mission area with an REP (Redpill Extraction Point) for roleplaying uses? Currently, if one is trying to extract a bluepill, they either have to bring them through the white hallways, or one would have to know of a surefire way to get an REP mission area through the mission system.

   Two more logs, and the site will have hit the 1,000 logs mark (note that this number includes the entries for the various character/item details, documents, unarchived missions, etc.)

   I'd like to use this time to inform everyone that the site now has free screenshot hosting. Plus, there's a new search system, so you don't have to rummage through a mountain of logs to find something you're looking for.

   And I'd like to remind everyone that absolutely anyone can contribute to the site. The logs can be for old or current events. And if you feel the need to keep a log or screenshot to yourself for the time being, then that's perfectly all right. My site isn't going anywhere anytime soon. ^_~

   Maybe this would only interest me, but I think it would be nice to have such a command. Like "/viewdetails [name]" or something like that.

   This would be a great way to view the Details of storyline characters who are dead (such as the Scanner, or practically all of the Unlimit lieutenants). Or characters that have rarely appeared so far (such as the Messenger, who has been used about twice so far).

   Maybe it could also work on NPCs. There are several Exile gang member ranks that were removed from the game when the Richland/Westview reflow came. Those ranks occasionally appear during live events, but it would be nice to view them without having to wait for such an occasion.

Now, as far as I know, there's no way to take a in-game screenshot of an in-game email. Yet I've seen plenty of email screenshots. I assume some program is being used to take a picture of whatever is on the desktop at the moment? What's a good program or method to use? Because it would really help me.

Thanks in advance.

   Since I've had several people ask me about this already, I've decided to post my findings here.

   As last Friday's event pointed out, Wright used alphadecimal (aka base36) encryption on her messages.

   http://www.translatorscafe.com/cafe...mal-to-base-36/

   Set the left column to "decimal" and the right to "base 36". Then enter the numbers you've found in the critical missions.

   Every period indicates a complete word. So "1185544" is "Perse".

   First message, encoded ...

   "1185544.17237.899540.483668.717988

    54565250.51734109.43273886

    2016350948.21153695.600"

   First message, decoded (and please note that all decoded messages are in shorthand) ...

   "Perse dat JA38 AD78 FE04

   White usual price

    Xcheck clean go".

   Second message, encoded ...

   "23.1657175.22.31886967253

   1398002.3112882819701219

   1734798830.80111597088940"

   Second message, decoded ...

   "N Zion M encoded

   Type unfamiliar

   Source searching".

   And ... that's all I have since I only have access to screenshots of the first two messages. In fact, I can't remember if there were any more of these. ^^;;;

Recently, Rylet, Merrit, and Harkee have all mentioned Roland and his crew. Apparently he's commanding the Mjolnir II now. According to Harkee, his ship crashed when the Machines' virus hit old Zion's database. The ship was still running off of old Zion's systems. They've had to make it back to New Zion on foot. Roland and Colt have made it back so far, but AK and Mauser are still missing.

Makes me wonder if they're actually going to show up in-game.

Okay, I realize this will probably interest only two of you out there, but the Unclean now have text in their Details. It's nice to finally see some background on those characters. I checked the Ethereals and the Spinnerettes real quick to see if they had anything in their Details, but they're still blank. The Unclean probably have text in their Details now because they were related to the recent update.

Oh, and I like the Details for the Headless, which say that they are rumored to be "simple script routines in an early test version of the simulation". It's a nice beta reference. I remember the headless clients. They were used during a beta stress test. But unlike the NPCs we see now, they actual had heads (if I remember correctly, the term "headless" referred to the fact that there were no players controlling them, just scripts). They just ran around randomly and used emotes every so often. I seem to recall that they were naked too. ^^;;;

   I know this will probably interest only a handful of you guys. But the dialogue for the NPCs that stand next to the org collectors have finally changed. They haven't changed since just after "Death of the Destroyer" ended.

   Most of the new dialogue occurs when you speak to the NPC whose organization corresponds with yours. The only other changes I've seen so far occur if you speak to Poretta (located in Southard) as a non-Machinist, where he says the exact same thing except that "the Assassin" as been replaced with "the General". And Pierre's (located Sai Kung) dialogue when you speak to him as a non-Merovingian, which is completely different from his previous text.

   I'll add every new piece of dialogue to my NPC Dialogue section when I update my site with my 7.3 transcripts.

   I've been wondering about something lately. Does anyone know of any in-character explanations for the disappearances of at least some of the LESIG characters? I realize that not every disappearance has an explanation behind it. And I don't mean ones that have been documented, like TaeCross', Keterina's, and SAMUAL's. Here are a few examples of what I mean ...

   Inundiation: According to Ookami (and I believe one or two other characters), Inundiation literally "fell apart". Which is interesting, because wasn't she supposedly made from Flood's code?

   Diversus: Itarrot said that Diversus was an EPN conspirator who tried to lead the Cypherites in the wrong direction. He was killed, and I believe it was Itarrot himself who did the deed.

   Itarrot: He's not listed in the liaison page, but according to Haigen, he's only on temporary leave to do some soul searching.

   I'm curious about something. In Rickshaw's final mission, you go up against an Exile whose title is "the Gambler". He gives you a choice ...

   "Let's play a game. Give those plans to one of these ladies of luck - one will unseal the door where Amalasunth waits; the other will open the door to your destruction."

   Amalasunth is the name of the NPC I'm supposed to interact with to finish the mission, in case you were wondering.

   When I first did this mission, I was able to open the door to Amalasunth. So I redid it to see if I could choose the other door. However, I still opened the same door.

   I'm curious if anyone has opened the "door to your destruction". The problem is that, dialogue-wise, there's no difference between the two ladies, so it's hard to choose the "other lady" on a redo of the mission. However, both times I did this mission, one of the ladies wore a dress like Persephone's in Reloaded, while the other wore an Asian-style dress (i.e. the dress that the Sisters of Fate wear) and a program launcher. I'm not sure if this is intended or a coincidence.

   I'm assuming that you can't actually choose the wrong door since, in the context of the story, it seems to be a one shot deal. I'm not going to complain if this is true, I'm simply curious if the wrong door can be chosen. If no one knows for sure, I guess I could ask Rarebit, who would probably know better than any of us.

   Forgive me for a negative thread, but tonight's farce has left me in a bit of a sour mood, and it's pretty much my own fault anyway, so this isn't an attack on anyone.

   Tonight wasn't a good time for me. You'll understand this more when you see the event post tomorrow. But basically, I never got to catch any of Fullstream's dialogue or her details before she was killed by a Twin, and I didn't get any dialogue from the Twin either.

   Then I was caught in a situation where I could either catch the liaisons' dialogue or Veil's dialogue, but not both. Though I easily could have missed a spot where both were possible.

   I just have to ask: am I one of the few people who actual bothers to make transcripts of these events so we're not stuck with a live event post full of holes? I'd probably feel better knowing that there were more people out there, because it really sucks to think that there will be nothing better than the incomplete transcripts I make. -_-

Some time ago, Romav mentioned that he was making a highly detailed storyline site which would contain live event and mission transcripts. He supposed got obtained several live event transcripts from players, and even I sent him a transcript when he asked for it (in fact, I sent him this one). It was his site that inspired me to create my live event transcript website.

Anyway, I was wondering if someone here knew how to get in touch with him. I'm not sure what the status of his site is, or if he's even working on it. If he's stopped working on the site, then I'd like to put the transcripts he has on my site, if he'll let me. I'd hate to see them go to waste.

   I'm wondering if there are anymore LESIG character blogs out there that I don't know of. I know of Tygrvason's, Salera's, Baelroth's, TaeCross', BloodlustV's, Keterina's, and Cremizi's.

   It doesn't matter if they're active or not, or if they have anything on them or not. I'm just curious if there's any I've missed out on.

   Edit: Ah, just found SIMLO's. Any others?

Forgive me if this has been mentioned before. But today I noticed that Seraph's eyes are not the only place that's leaking gold code. It's also coming from two points near his shoulders. I'm guessing it's coming from the scars where his wings used to be.

Yes, this is a real product. I saw it myself yesterday.

Has anyone seen, or remembered this speech? I was reading through it and it seems to foreshadow the events of the current storyline. At one point he says, "My back bears the scars which prove I will sacrifice that which is most precious to me in order to follow my heart". This seems to be a reference to his wings, which were removed by the Merovingian, and also seems to be relevent to what's happening to him now.

Because I've used it, and the effects aren't being toggled off. I've even changed keybindings related to the F key. O_o

I call it "Archival Science in a Post-War Simulation". It contains transcripts that I've collected over time. Before you head over there to check it out, I'd like to point out two things ...

(1. This is my first web site. Visually, it's very barren and contains mostly text, since I'm currently more interested in the informational value of the site. Plus it could contain mistakes or glitches. If you see anything wrong, feel free to inform me. Please be gentle with me and don't yell at me for any HTML mistakes, bad web hosting choices, etc. I've made. I know I'm a website noob. SMILEY

   (2. Currently I'm up to chapter 2.3, along with transcripts of loot documents, and transcripts that I'm currently unsure of on the subject of their placement in the overall scheme of things. Very few of the ones currently on the site are mine. I only copied them because I didn't want to see them lost if the sites they were originally on went down (and some of them have).

   I am not trying to take any credit for them. In fact, I have credited those who made the transcripts (or at least the ones that I know of) along with the ones I've made. If you have any problems with this, feel free to contact me about it. But let's keep it civil. I mean no harm, and I'm just trying to make another MxO storyline site.

   Please read the FAQ and feel free to send me any coments, criticism, suggestions, etc. And if you choose to, I would appreciate any transcripts you'd like to donate.

   *deep breath* Okay, here you will witness my wobbly first steps into the world wide web.

   Edit: The link now goes to the new location.

I don't think this has been mentioned yet. So I posted this in case anyone was interested in hearing about it.

Kinda guessed we'd get one soon. I think I'm seeing a release schedule pattern now.

Cryptos was on Syntax tonight, and at one point he basically hinted at a new Sentinel issue. Look for yourselves.

I'm using the Merovingian 3.3.1 ticket, and I'm currently encountering NPCs that are one level above me. In the past, this would happen if you used an archive ticket without disbanding a previous mission team, but that doesn't seem to work anymore. I've also tried jacking out and jacking back in again.

And before anyone asks, no, I have no problem with the difficulty. It has to do with the fact that I prefer to gain levels at my own pace, and fighting NPCs that are one level above me gives me a bit too much EXP for my liking. ^_^;;;

You know the bug that causes NPCs to leave the mission area? Imagine how funny it would be if Morpheus or the Assassin left the area of an archive mission and walked to where people would find him. XD

I've been wanting to see something like this since at least the late Monolith days. I was extremely happy to hear that you were working on it. And now that it's here, it's great. ^_^

Honestly, I would have gone through the mission archive even if it didn't have a reward system attached to it.

And it's here just in time for my birthday, which is tomorrow.

Thanks devs. And keep up the good work. ^_^

I'm having trouble with the cutup picture that holds the solution to the second gateway. I don't have any good image programs. SMILEY

Why do people send me tells when they stand well within Area Chat range, /who shows no one else in the neighborhood, and the subject matter is by no means private?

Reminds me of those humorous "Why are we whispering?" scenes in some stories.

Most, if not all, fads and subcultures have wannabes. In the post-Revolutions Matrix, the general bluepill population sees the large amount of redpills as an emerging subculture. This got me thinking recently: are there poser redpills? And if there are, what would they be like?

In any case, the poser redpills would probably be in a great deal of danger if they were mistaken as real redpills. SMILEY

I've been wondering about this since beta. There are several mission music files marked with an "M" (like MisZionM, MisMachinesM, etc.). I was wondering if these files are ever played at some point. All I've heard in missions are the "L" and "H" ones.

First, it seems that they're rather worn out and dirty now. Which makes sense, seeing as they've been up for almost a month (or maybe this effect is just my video card ... anyone else see this?).

They've also added the mysterious "person in the background" that has been appearing in event banners on DN1 lately.

And they've added the "Under Armour" logo, as if it's "sponsoring" the event.

Finally, they've put the "May 2nd to May 7th" over the old "April 25th to April 30th" date, which in turn covers the original "March 31th to April 2nd" date.

It's not mindblowing, but all in all I think it's a nice touch. Cool job, devs. ^_^

I want everyone to think about something for a moment. Would there really have been so much lag in this event if the radio stations weren't announcing where the security guards are?

Let me give you an example. At one point I was waiting around at Eshean Park. According to the /who command, there were only 24 people in the area. A security guard showed up. It was announced on a radio station that a guard is at Eshean Park, and the DJ encouraged people to head down there. It didn't take long before the /who command gave me "Too many names to display".

No offense to the radio stations. But if they weren't telling the population of the servers where the security guards are, then maybe everyone would be spread out amongst the eight concert venues. In doing so, the security guards will come to you instead of you going off to them, creating a caravan of lag.

I'm not saying I'm right, but honestly, in Eshean I didn't experience any lag until the population of the server converged on the area due to a radio announcement.

I was looking through the MxO screenshots on an Italian site when I came upon this ...

I assume this is one of the billboards that appeared during the "Race to Find The One" event, but I'd never heard of it until now. Has anyone ever seen it?

I went to an Archivist and noticed that he's now selling an item called a "Stat Hack Ticket". According to the details, it's supposed to show the address of a person in the Slums who can give you RSI stat hacks. It doesn't seem to work right now. I'm guessing this is somehow connected to how we'll buy RSI stat hack items after CR 2.0 reaches the live servers?

I was fighting some NPCs on the test server when I noticed the new $information icon in the NPCs' loot. It's a dollar sign and a lower case "i" with a purple code background.
