The entire site seems to have gone down.. did something happen? Did somebody do something?

Anyone watched the new video? Maybe it has something to do with it. I'm in the process of watching it.

EDIT: Just static. *CENSORED*.

Did she retrieve the fragment?

We do not know.

330 has still not...

...reported in.

Find her. Now.

Yeah, I'm thinking that too, but I'm a person who can figure that stuff out

The frag was stolen by Reeverb.  Algorithm Operatives, we must retrieve that disc from him AT ALL COSTS!

You *might* be able to figure it out by comparing it to the pitches of a touch-tone phone.

Reeverb didnt steal it. Operative330 gave it to him.....

Ok the site seems to be down for me right now too. I did grab the Algorithm video from Youtube though.

Here a link to a converted wmv.

 Unknown

I believe there may be hidden Stegenography in the video static and maybe even a message in the dial tones used to dial the modem.

Operative330 gave it to him because he killed her quicker than we should have.  That data was for us to retrieve.  I was killed while trying to retrieve it.  We had to kill Operative43 because he too was malfunctioning and were told to retrieve the data on Vector by Semiconductor.  Reeverb is a known enemy of The Algorithm, and the data was not ment for him.  He has stolen it from us.   He needs to be dealt with and the data retrieved.

Also don't forget folks, it was mentioned that the Algorithm was going to be a little slow due to the upcoming holiday but should pick back up afterwards.

Status update November 20th, 2007 5:31am GMT (19th 9:31pm Pacific)

Currently, our hoster is having some technical issues, which has reduced functionality of the website.  
Forums are currently in limbo due to this, and like some of you, we are seriously pissed off.
We have been recommended by live chat support to email support with a full report.  Yes this sounds a bit silly but its been done.  
Now we wait and hope someone who doesn't think redundantly replys.

Thank you for your support throughout this event.

The Algorithm needs to be stopped. ResidentDC picked up a couple of the missing fragments the other night and from the sound of #13, The Algorithm and his people are planning to nuke the pods by removing the safeguards that regulate the fusion process.

Translation from the PM I got would be something like this:

NOTHINGNOTHINGNOTHINGNOTHINGNOTHINGNOTHINGNOTHINGNOTHING.....NOTHINGISREAL

I'm thinking this 'Nothing' charactor is real... someone we need to watch for.

Oi like i said.. Algorithm = end of a sequence to no longer loop. That so said loop was the power to the pods.... what else.. hmm.. I know ppl were denying i was not right but look now..... and sad enough i had asked doctrine holders at devry first hand and seemed a few didnt want to take note on it... *sigh* see what happens when one does alot of searching and it gets thorwn away by when trying to show fact and meaning.. the faith ppl had in a program to think it can bring peace by killing al blues thus then ending both man and mech kind all ways.... Yeah i said my peace and i had enoguh of algy boy... LOCK AND LOAD IM TAKING NAMES

Yet I guess it goes to show some... Dont always turn ones back onto one belief of logic. Cause it very well may end up being such said logic in one way or another..

The reason why I and the rest of the 20-some players from all over the game were chosen was simple once we all gathered together- We desired peace. Like I had told many people(players) privately. When I first heard about this event- I did not care. But when I heard my name called on the list- I knew there was something I personally do- that made me be seen in the eyes of others.

The people chosen, are free thinkers that were more closer to peace, than you can imagine. Wars are built on the failures of communication and understanding- we did not have such failures. We- an open minded community, can believe in finding peace- and we did, under this banner- all three sects of Operatives, looked- listened- and understood what it was they had to sacrifice in order for the current populus to obtain peace.

For those that decided to fight against the Algorithm- that is your case and you stand by it. You cannot- will not justify the deaths on the left side vs the deaths on the right side. In the end, people who are not victims are still dead. The people who played their cards died. No one was innocent.

From here on i speak for myself- not for the Algorithm or its operatives. 

As far as peace is concenred. I am a machine operative and I still have my peace with Zion/EPN before and after the Algorithm. It takes commitment and humliaty to obtain peace. Wars are built upon pride and unrelentless anger- Removing such traits from my character has allowed me to do what so many programs and players could not have done.

I approached Zion- it did not happen instantly, but over time through communication and understanding- is it possible. War only continues because people want it too- in this event there were 4 types of people. Followers of the Algorithm that wanted peace- Followers of the Algorithm that spied for their Org. People who wanted peace but without the Algorithm. And those that did not want peace at all.

Everyone has a side. The latter are probably a majority of the players because they are afraid of change- they cannot conceive of a world that is "tranquil"- a monumental failure that the Architect realized too late. I truly abandon all hope for those war mongers

Surely, Dante Allegheri had it right, the 5th Circle of Hell- a swamp where the wrathful continuously fight for no other reason than to fight. You'd find all the greatest "champions" there en masse pulling each other down into the River Styx. Truly, all of you were made for such a place.

The first message the Algorithm sent us was about responsibility. "A killer in me is a killer in you." We have all done our part planting the seeds of war into ourselves and our enemies. I first and foremost accept such responsibilities- from Heuristic to early Vector, I was a complete and utter apathetic killer.

But from this reality check- we have a "pause", where we as individuals can summarize our playing habits and have a choice to make change- Not absolution- but a betterment of the people around us.

OOC: And surely once you players decide to wake up from so much pvp, you will realize how much effort is going into pvp changes rather than expansion/extension to content itself (yes i know mxo doesnt have an animator) rest assured. More effort could be made to the world instead of creating "cool neat things" to justify using them in a war.

So like the Algorithm once said.

Is your function "War" or "Peace" ?

You decide.

We are all watching.
