un: Ganymede - Mithrun's case

[ganymed]

...What does have everyone have now?

It's been more than two days now since what happened.

Whatever everyone has been finding out, we should put it together, or something like that. Even as new information comes in.

As for me, I took a look at the bloody trail of footprints, which I confirmed to be Mithrun's. He didn't seem to be in any much of a rush, like he wasn't paying much mind or attention to where he was going either.

The trail of blood was only a mess due to the amount of traffic, as it is, without adding to any more prints as NPCs don't leave footprints.

Anyone else have anything more?

Documented?

[insinning]

it's incomplete

but he got sent the keywords from 'dv'

the same as our titles

[ganymed]

Dv. Who is this supposed to be again?

[insinning]

i don't know. they just showed up in our inboxes with titles one day

i didn't get to talk to them though zelkova stopped me

[ganymed]

...Mithrun seemed rather familiar with them.

Why did Zelkova stop you from talking to them?

[insinning]

he said not to worry about it and that it wasn't a glitch. he was still looking into it

[ganymed]

Glitches are accidental, so I would be inclined to believe that.

Though I wonder if this dv whatever proved to be more worrisome than expected.

[insinning]

mithrun was thinking it might be an advanced ai, like zelkova but corrupted

or just an internal player

if its responsible for the mirrors, then it would be responsible for the voices in the sky root town, including the one warning us about a horrible death

Mithrun was bleeding but alive before he went into the dungeon

[ganymed]

An Anti-Zelkova, basically.

...I have no idea what 'ai' means.

Well it'd make sense he was still alive when he went into the dungeon, since it seems like he was heading back to the Chaos Gate, and left a blood trail there. Though seeing as there were pieces of armor left behind there could have been a fight there too.

artificial intelligence

a program that learns the more you interact with it and feed it information, that sort of thing

scitalis said he used some potions so

it was probably then


our hp recovers over time in root areas if we're not fighting someone

crackpot theory time:

Zelkova exists and is apparently a full blown AI who only really lives in Fragment. It probably took a ton of work to program him like that, right?

So what are the chances there were prototypes or older versions that were made first that might be floating around in the game files?

If he's an earlier version of Zelkova that still somehow has admin access, it could explain why he can mess with the game so much.

[gluttoning]

user that contacted a bunch of us after a bad glitch in Mac Anu. It's why some of us have titles.

The admins were telling people not to talk to it.

[ganymed]

Did they even say why?

[gluttoning]

Not that I know of. Some people got told accounts that didn't obey would get suspended. So I guess they thought it was serious enough.

[ganymed]

...Only some?

But yeah, that sounds serious enough to me.

[gluttoning]

Yeah. I didn't get told that until later, from somebody else.

[insinning]

so were you able to talk to it?

[gluttoning]

I mean that too but

How do you know that

[insinning]

mithrun shared information with me about the game

i forgot i still had access to those files until now

[gluttoning]

Files?

So that would mean he shared that information with someone at the casino and didn't get it from them. Maybe so they could go try it?

But why would they fight?

[insinning]

It was probably 0koto

but you're right

0koto seemed like a calm person

[ Scary calm?]

it's weird. were they trying to do something with the crane?

[gluttoning]

If there was blood all over it then maybe it just was in the way of whatever else they were doing while they talked.

[insinning]

[ Pretend Sinclair went back to check everything to redo the timeline]

something happened at lumina cloth's fountain

then he went into the dungeon,

came out bleeding

went to the casino and got pushed into the glass crane by 0koto after they argued over something

[gluttoning]

And then he wandered around and went to Mac Anu after that where he ended up on the bridge?

I don't think the dungeon killed him. But I don't get what another player could have done to have any of this happen.

And it doesn't explain why he's missing in real life either because he still isn't responding and it's been almost a week

[userunfriendly]

The fountain is still strange. Did something make it... explode? There was a crater and one of the NPCs mentioned Mithrun being soaked.
