*You have entered Edgewater.*
*You are now using the Self Defense martial arts style.*
Deffdog: Hey Merrit.
*You target [Door]*
Merrit: Evening.. I just about forgot what day it was.
*You are now using the Spy Style martial arts style.*
PS10N: hello Deffdog, Merrit
*You activate Hyper-Dodge.*
*You activate Hyper-Deflect.*
*You begin to sneak.*
*You stop sneaking.*
*You begin to sneak.*
Merrit: I think Nomii did too. I barely made it.
PS10N: I saw Rylet Jacked-in, and assumed he'd be taking your place
PS10N: Welcome, Merrit, it's good to see you safe and sound
Deffdog: Hes not in anymore.
PS10N: Will RedBindi and the rest be along, Deff?
Merrit: Anyway, good to see you. Really not much to say lately, so I don't know how much of a meeting we could have here anyway.
PS10N: I've missed several in a row
*TheBee has joined the mission team.*
*You are now the leader of your mission team.*
*Mission team created.*
PS10N: but managed to assist Niobe, Ghost before the snow started falling, and Colt afterwards.
*Character data for TheBee has been written to the database.*
Merrit: It's hard to scrounge up things to talk about to fill a meeting with as quiet as it's been. No word of the Intruder still I assume.
Fenshire: Howdy.
Merrit: Hello again.
Fenshire: How've you been, Merrit?
Merrit: Not bad. How is everyone?
Fenshire: I'm alright.
JDilla: hello everybody
Fenshire: Hey Daemon Contingency!
Merrit: Hello there.
chopperj: Hey guys
[Tell] To TheBee: 0
[Tell] TheBee: 0
Merrit: Didn't expect anyone to show this week, actually. I almost forgot myself. I apologize that I am unprepared and have nothing really to report that could fill a meeting.
PS10N: hello, my friends
Fenshire: Ha, that's okay.
PS10N: it's good to see so many still gathering
RollsRoyce: i think its time to pick a new spot
PS10N: I appologize for my absence at the past few meetings
Merrit: Why?
RollsRoyce: cause this place looks ugly
Deffdog: Your point?
*Craint is in The Matrix.*
RollsRoyce: we need a nice place
Fenshire: Then look at Merrit.
JDilla: mack daddy fen
Deffdog: Seriously we ain't machinist herem we ain't going to find a nice place.
RollsRoyce: and why is everyone wearing black, when did zion go emo???
RollsRoyce: we should start a new fashion trend
RollsRoyce: like pink
Merrit: You'd have to take that up with Nomii, but I doubt she cares that the building isn't easy on the eyes.
RollsRoyce: neat
JDilla: so whats new Merrit?
Merrit: Not a lot it seems. I was asking you all the same.
RollsRoyce: yea, wats goin in new zion
RollsRoyce: whats it look like???
PS10N: You haven't been back? The free fall drop entrance is the adrenaline rush of the century
RollsRoyce: nice
JDilla: whats going on with La Somba?
JDilla: or something like that?
PS10N: When the engineering level was planned, they used the foundry to manufacture new equipment as well as using as much salvage from Old Zion as could be transported
RollsRoyce: most efficent
PS10N: The new Cypherite Faction? I can't imagine how they manage to recruit new people, but it happens.
Deffdog: Were Dealing with those Cypherites.
RollsRoyce: yea those cypherites are bad
RollsRoyce: :(
PS10N: Is everyone aware that EPN is carrying out operations in Old Zion now that the Machines have pulled back to their borders?
Fenshire: I gotta run. Deff, can you keep me up to date in faction?
Merrit: They've sort of made it their home.
RollsRoyce: hmm... maybe they're looking for something??
RollsRoyce: or maybe its just a sentamental move
Merrit: Tired of running, perhaps.
JDilla: there would be alot of rebuilding to be done to make that place safe again
Merrit: I don't think the Machines are going to do anything about it with the intruder running around.
*Craint is offline.*
RollsRoyce: wonder what the intruder knows about the machines
JDilla: this intruder fella is very nosey
PS10N: At a recent meeting with Shimada, the EPN captains weer all given the green light to dock in Old Zion, and those of us in the Amassadorial delegation from Zion are welcome to dock, too
PS10N: Just make sure you open a frequency and transmit your ship authentications while still outside the perimeter
PS10N: I'm afraid to say, nothing was salvagable from Outpost One. The Trust did a very good job of blowing the hell out of every Sentinal in and around the base
Merrit: Sounds like you made Command proud then.
PS10N: Our cryptologists have been working in the Intruder problem, and we have a theory.
Deffdog: Didn't have much of a choice their, couldn't leave anything behind to be used against us.
RollsRoyce: does anyone know what happen to commander locke???
RollsRoyce: i heard the sentinel ripped him apart
RollsRoyce: but that can't be true
Merrit: He's still missing. No evidence to show he's either alive or dead at this point.
RollsRoyce: and the hammer commander guy, hes doing okay??
*Syntax.Haigen is in The Matrix.*
Merrit: Seems to be. Your opinion of him may vary.
RollsRoyce: never met the man
RollsRoyce: oh but i heard he is a redpill
RollsRoyce: maybe he can jack in
RollsRoyce: and put a hurtin on the machines
*Syntax.Trepetia is offline.*
PS10N: If the encryption lock on the old Zion mainframe needed Morpheus' AND Lock's patterns, then the Machines have Lock. If it was an OR situation, then we have no new information.
Merrit: I suppose he feels he can do more hurting in the end being the Commander.
PS10N: I haven't heard much from Roland, but Colt's been about.
PS10N: We got him a nice Santa suit a few weeks back
Merrit: It was an "or" situation. Only Morpheus and Lock had access to that RSI signature database.
PS10N: The theory on the Intruder...
RollsRoyce: oooo... intruder
[Tell] To TheBee: .
[Tell] TheBee: .
PS10N: perhaps some sentient from a future version of the Matrix (which the Machines have been working on for some time - a new version where Awakenings and Redpills are obsolete, and the Machines handle the 1% which reject) ...
PS10N: ... so some sentient from this new version, got curious as to exactly WHAT was going to be replaced
[Team] TheBee: 0
JDilla: interesting theory
RollsRoyce: i think hes older
RollsRoyce: malphas and the mero seem to remember him
RollsRoyce: but they wont say :(
Merrit: If he were, why wouldn't the Machines be able to deal with him?
RollsRoyce: ah.. now thats the question
PS10N: didn't Veil's investigation reveal that he's from a newer version? A higher version number....
PS10N: but, trusting the Cypherites to get it right is like trusting a Sentinel to watch your back
PS10N: Interesting question, Merrit
RollsRoyce: oooo.. didn't know veil investigated i would very much like to see what she found out
RollsRoyce: must take everything with a grain of salt however
PS10N: What if this Intruder is some sort of artificial One from the new version? A new contingency for handling rebellion....
Deffdog: If ti were why would it be talking to us, rather than attacking us.
PS10N: Take the whole salt shaker.... not much turns out to be what it seems at first.
Merrit: He doesn't seem concerned that much with the fact that humans are enslaved in here.
RollsRoyce: hi andy
andywatts: hi rolls
RollsRoyce: merrit we should take you out on some training missions, raise your level and stuff
PS10N: So, the theory is, that the intentional anamoly of the new version has come to see what it is that is being replaced, that the Machines can't control him because, in eseence, he the Next One, by design.
*Syntax.Gitano is offline.*
PS10N: I'm eager to hear other theories or input on that one. We need to get some facts together and see what fits the fact
Merrit: But even they controlled Neo, to an extent. Smith is the one who threw all that into chaos. They're treating this as if it was never suppposed to happen. But yes, all this is just speculation at this point.
Merrit: It's all we can do for the moment.
Deffdog: We really don't have any facts thats the problem.
PS10N: What do we know about it? It's from another version. It's not compatible with this version. It's impervious to Machine control. It can take over the will of Exiles. it can Accellerate and Decellerate Matrix programs including Redpills.
*Could not add waypoint, player is not online or available on your client.*
PS10N: what else... it's curious
RollsRoyce: hi jeasey
JEasy: hell all
JEasy: o
Merrit: He's also freeborn, which doesn't explain how he could be an anomaly in a system he was never part of.
Merrit: It also doesn't explain how he can have a presence in this one, unless he's been modified, or using some kind of outside equipment.
PS10N: A freeborn jacking in? I'd not heard that... please explain
RollsRoyce: like maybe the girl the machines freeed
PS10N: One of these enhanced Machine Awakened?
PS10N: They have been doing their own extractions, of particularly talented individuals
DuIux: Hey all sorry i'm late.
Merrit: Not much to explain, that's about all we know. He also seems to know the actual human man the Machines based the Merovingian's appearance from.
*Syntax.Haigen is offline.*
RollsRoyce: hi dulux
RollsRoyce: woa, really??
DuIux: Oooh TDC-arama.
Merrit: Mating them, you think? Selecting humans and breeding them?
RollsRoyce: wonder who they based the mero off of
RollsRoyce: but don't they do that already??
DuIux: Well if he still looks the same, maybe they have been cloning the same guy over and over.
PS10N: see this is good, please anyone feel free to throw out any rumours, facts, opinions or questions about the Intruder.
PS10N: so... this Mystery Man in the surveilance footage... an enhanced Machine Awakened?
Merrit: Yeah, to an extent. I just can't think of any reason someone like Mary MacHenry would have been extracted. She wasn't rejecting the system.
PS10N: Because the Machines want her abilities and talents working for them in the Real
PS10N: They are at a time when they need to adapt and respond to a free humanity and who knows what else
[Tell] Aeolon92: '-_-
DuIux: Could the machines have a 'one' of sorts?
*Aeolon92
*Found 1 players.*
DuIux: Hey Aeo
RollsRoyce: a machine 1?
PS10N: or a custom awakened and trained army of enhanced redpills.... no, not a whole army, that's paranoid. A Special Ops team
Aeolon92: Hello,
PS10N: hello
[Tell] Aeolon92: You should go.
PS10N: maybe the Machines have trained, awakened and enhanced some former Bluepills who showed exceptional knowledge or skills
Merrit: What would they need humans to do that they can't?
JEasy: when was intruder last seen?
DuIux: Or maybe like with Neo who had some code in him, this woman has something similar in her the machines need.
Merrit: Hmm.. a few weeks ago. He ran off to search for the Morpheus sim.
DuIux: For some other purpose.
RollsRoyce: thats a good idea jdilla, i've never thought of an alien lifeform jacking in
PS10N: That's a great question. Why do Machines need Humans.
PS10N: Historically, it would be to invent, maintain, repair and improve them.
JEasy: energy right?
PS10N: Yes, and keep them powered.
Merrit: Advancement. Remember the Merovingian's examination of the Taskmaster, compared to the Machines of today?
DuIux: Machines were built to aid humans, and so maybe they are still trying to do that, in there own funny way.
Merrit: There's a clear difference in behavior and expression.
*CAUTION: Agents are homing in on your location!*
Agent (shouting): You are not authorized in this area.
Merrit: How that relates to Mary MacHenry though, I can't really guess.
RollsRoyce (shouting): bah you agents, think you run the place
[Tell] To TheBee: 0
[Tell] TheBee: 0
DuIux: He's a go getter.
RollsRoyce: yea, can't fault them for that
JEasy: brb
PS10N: The Machines are adapting. They are evolving. But to take the intuitive leap forward, maybe it takes a human mind.
PS10N: A mind less bound by the parameters of perfection.
RollsRoyce: but aren't humans perfect??
Deffdog: Well I am afraid I must be going.
DuIux: Cheerio.
PS10N: Will you recap the Story of Ms. MacHenry for those of us who have not heard it all, please Merrit?
Aeolon92: Auf Wiedersehen
DuIux: Narf, Deff can't find the exit.
JEasy: cya deff
Merrit: Sure, where's my data on Mary here...
RollsRoyce: oh i gotta write an email, brb
DuIux: A likely story.
RollsRoyce: k im done
JEasy: does anyone know when intruder may resurface?
RollsRoyce: and i just found out, i got a bazillion new emails, lol
JEasy: and if we need to worry or be happy?
DuIux: Jeeze, faction chat just won't stop over here.
DuIux: Can't get a word in.
RollsRoyce: oh sory, please continue
*Merrit Level 23 Gunman*
*Found 1 players.*
RollsRoyce: we should start planning next rave in the caves
Merrit: The Merovingian's investigation into the Machines and their power source revealed.. according to him... that birth rates in the Matrix far exceed death rates, but...
Merrit: ...if the Matrix is a system built on stability, the population growth would throw that out of balance.
*Stanten is in The Matrix.*
Merrit: The Coroner hinted that the Machines make people "disappear" to cover that up, which apparently was the case with Mary MacHenry.
JEasy: maybe adustments are somehow being made to made maintain stability
JEasy: agent
RollsRoyce: here we go
Agent (shouting): You are not authorized in this area.
Agent (shouting): Escape is impossible.
Agent (shouting): Escape is impossible.
Agent (shouting): Escape is impossible.
PS10N: I have res for those who may die
PS10N: n00bs...
etoxic: i would kill but ..bad knee and all
*Stanten is offline.*
PS10N: no, I don't actually... I'm k--fu
PS10N: anyone else with res? brb with it
DuIux: Maybe all these extra folk who get taking out are for experimentaion
Merrit: Further investigations showed the Machines altered history a little to show that Mary died in an accident, but they later found logs from her caretaker program that showed her muscles were rebuilt, and she was removed from the pod intentionally.
DuIux: ooh, i'll just lie down here for a while i think
JEasy: me too
Merrit: She definitely did not die in any sort of accident.
[Tell] To TheBee: 0
[Tell] TheBee: 0
DuIux: After all you can't experiment on new cloned bodies to find out how to improve the system
DuIux: thanks PS.
Merrit: Persephone claims Ms. MacHenry is not the only person this has happened to.
RollsRoyce: alright, agent wilson is a punk
PS10N: A specially trained team, being used by the Machines for ... ?
PS10N: For the next version of the Matrix?
DuIux: Where you getting this team thing from?
DuIux: or is this just speculation?
Aeolon92: thx
*odj3 is offline.*
Merrit: I couldn't begin to guess.. but you'd have to think that the Machines have probably been trying to perfect the Matrix constantly, even before this one was put into place.
chopperj: Thanks
Merrit: Maybe they did have a breakthrough? I don't know.
etoxic: bad agent
PS10N: Aeolon92 seems to be bugged on my client, neither dead nor alie
andywatts: anyone have res?
PS10N: alive
DuIux: Which makes sense at why they'd take out folk who have spent there whole lives in, to see if they can improve it.
Merrit: The intruder, I suspect, does.
etoxic: ty sir
PS10N: tandby res
andywatts: Thank you
DuIux: Though it would make more sense to run em down with a bus or something, than just stealing them away. Less suspicious.
Aeolon92: im sorry friends I must go
PS10N: The Machines have rebuilt and awakend a "group" of people
chopperj: take care buddy
DuIux: Cheerio Aeo.
Aeolon92: Good-Bye
PS10N: if they are meant to work together, then they would be considered a team
Merrit: Good evening.
*Syntax.Pyroclasam is offline.*
andywatts: brb
Merrit: Until we know more, it's all just guesswork I'm afraid to say.
DuIux: So any news of anything big on the horizon?
*You stop sneaking.*
*You begin to sneak.*
Merrit: I don't know, I think all this is pretty big myself. I don't know if we're going to like the truth when we get to it.
RollsRoyce: no chopper we can't kill the intruder
chopperj: huh?
RollsRoyce: we need to trap it and ask it questions
RollsRoyce: huh, oh im sry
RollsRoyce: wups
PS10N: We should uh... stay frosty... for the end of Winter Holiday event(s)
Merrit: Well, I've got an errand to take care of that I'd better handle before too long. Thanks everyone for coming. I shall be back tomorrow evening.
PS10N: keep your eyes open around the city for any boxed presents (gifts) which may be dropped in the Archive Constructs or the city itself
DuIux: Smashing, whats happening tommorow?
Merrit: Feel free to call me if you have anything else you'd like to talk about.
PS10N: And there will likely be something or other going on just before the snow stops again.
Merrit: Enjoy your evening, everyone. It was good to speak with you all again.
DuIux: Cheers Merrit have a good one.
chopperj: have a goodnight
