Well this thread got fun while I was at the game last night. It looks like Passacaglia is joking around out of frustration to me and a couple are taking him more seriously than they should. Just what it looks like. I am about to head out to meet some friends before going to the Florida game today. Be back around tonight.

You guys stay friendly while I'm gone

And yeah, it can seem like everyone is a mole in this game, but there is only one. It could be any one of you, remember.

This is correct. But there's no frustration -- just having a little fun. Sorry path, I didn't mean to keep you up until 4:30 sorting through all the twists and turns of my fake conspiracy theory. Although, did you notice that Brian didn't post that whole time? It's like he evaded the entire thing. I got nothing.

No worries, I wasn't serious at all either.

New Turn:
Evader-3
Hunter-4

Passacaglia · 10-04-2008, 07:27 PM

Okay spotters, where is he? And remember what happened LAST time you guys told me you couldn't see him!

But seriously -- if you could let me know whether or not you can see him when you check in without me having to ask, that would help things move along faster. Right now I could make my move, but I want to wait and see if you guys have any info for me, so we're held up a little.

Thomkal · 10-04-2008, 08:22 PM

Pass, I do try to let you know if I can see him or not when I check in. Sometimes I wait for another spotter to check in. I cannot see him, and you are not going the direction all three of us wanted you to go. If you go west now you will run into a dead end.

MJ4H · 10-05-2008, 08:27 AM

New Turn:
Evader-2
Hunter-2

Thomkal · 10-05-2008, 08:37 AM

Okay I can see him again. He is one to the east and directly north of you. Go 1 east, then north all the way.

Passacaglia · 10-05-2008, 08:50 AM

Thanks. Do you think you guys can get his coordinates, in case we don't see him again for a while?

Thomkal · 10-05-2008, 09:03 AM

I show him at 15 down, 10 across.

Passacaglia · 10-05-2008, 09:10 AM

Thanks. I've got this area pretty well mapped out, so I don't need hints on which way to go in the future -- just let me know where he is.

MJ4H · 10-06-2008, 06:25 PM

Yeah, I'll confirm right after this meeting I'm in. I probably screwed up.

MJ4H · 10-06-2008, 08:18 PM

I'll just resend current maps for everyone.

Thomkal · 10-06-2008, 08:52 PM

I can see him again at 13 down, 21 across. You need to go east at every opportunity

Thomkal · 10-06-2008, 09:17 PM

got the latest turn and cannot see him, and Pass if you are going to continue to completely ignore my suggestions for movement, I'm going to let the other spotters take over from here.

Just to reiterate this -- I'm trying to make it so that he doesn't know where I am. Telling me where he is helps, but telling me which way to go, when I know where I am, and I know where he is, just lets Brian know where I am. Giving information of the pathways (around him, not me) would help, especially when he heads to areas not in the middle of the map.

BrianD · 10-07-2008, 09:29 AM

I didn't think this was going to come up, but I am going to be heading out of town on Friday morning for about a week to an area that probably won't have Internet access. I initially thought the whole Mole game would be finished by then, but the length of this challenge makes that unlikely. I do hope this challenge can be finished by then. I'm not really sure what to do with the time off, but I wanted to throw it out there so we can talk about it.

If you want to end this thing now, I can tell you which direction to go in!

But seriously, I don't mind waiting it out.

MJ4H · 10-07-2008, 09:54 AM

Yeah I'm really sorry it is taking as long as it is. Didn't really consider that. Writing an automated update program really helped speed things along, though. We can kick it into high gear speed-wise if you guys want.

BrianD · 10-07-2008, 11:29 AM

I will try to be quick with my moves when I see they are ready. If people are OK with taking a break at the end of the week, I'm OK with that too. I just want to do my part to not make people wait if they don't want to.

well I am wondering if you really do know where he is because you are much further away now than you would have been had you followed our directions.

Thomkal · 10-07-2008, 12:07 PM

I am fine with taking a break if need be

samifan24 · 10-07-2008, 12:08 PM

MJ4H, do we have to take a quiz after this challenge or the next one? I don't remember where we stand in the cycle.

path12 · 10-07-2008, 12:23 PM

I'm fine with taking a break for Brian. Even though this challenge is a long one, it has been pretty interesting as far as giving me some ideas as to who the mole might be, so from that standpoint the length is no problem!

BrianD · 10-07-2008, 12:42 PM

I'm still hoping we can wrap this one up before I go. Speaking of which, where are we? Still on hold until we get a new number of moves?

MJ4H · 10-07-2008, 07:26 PM

New Turn:
Evader-3
Hunter-3

That's where we are. New update just sent. Quiz follows this mission to narrow us down to 4. The last few challenges are much quicker than this one, so once we are through this, we should wrap this game up fairly quickly. Sorry about this mission, I didn't realize it would take as long as it did. I guessed we would get 5 - 10 moves a day instead of 1 or 2. A lot of it is my fault. It's a busy time of year for me, but I will try to do better. Thanks for being patient, you guys have been great, and that goes or you, the eliminated players, and the observers. I have had a lot of comments and questions from observers, and I think The FOFC Mole Season 2 will be even better and with more players. I'm having a blast.

BrianD · 10-07-2008, 07:31 PM

I'm having a blast too. Even though this challenge is a bit slow, I'm very much enjoying it. Of course I'll enjoy it even more when I grab the 6th fingerprint.
