An idea that's been swirling in my mind. What do you guys think?

Originally shared by Mustafa Said

I'd like to shed light on a random thought that's been mulling in my mind for a long time now.

I'm considering hosting a investigation hangout event soon, similar to the one Edgar Allan Wright​ hosted during Abaddon.

It is important to state that nothing about this is concrete yet. If everything on my end works in my favor, I'll be poking some of you to appear as members of the hangout.

What do you guys think? What topics should we discuss? If I choose to go ahead about this, what advice can you give to me to help make the experience run as smooth as possible? Share your thoughts here.

-Mustafa.

    I think this would be a good thing. I support it.

    Mustafa Said I think this is a great idea! In fact, it was that Hangouts you mention where Jennifer Brozek , Jaime Quinonez , and myself first aligned as Investigators - so a fond memory for me for sure!

    I think it would be of most value if you can secure a special guest... not sure if that's possible? But certainly if you could get flint dille , Edgar Allan Wright , Hank Johnson , or possibly even Stein Lightman ?  I know that's a huge ask of them, but at the same time - you have done so much to aid in Operation Essex , perhaps it can be done?  If so - I'd say the topics may be gleaned from topics that are current on their minds ATM...

    As for how to make it run smooth - CERTAINLY I have some input there! The earlier one confused me in that I was unclear on how exactly, as an audience member, you interact.  At first I thought "text only", then I saw people using video chat - but I couldn't figure that out... THEN later I realized the people on video chat had used an early RSVP to set that up. So - just be very clear on the actual mechanics of how the Hangout works.  I think that alone will make it run the smoothest.

    Matt Stevenson Thank you for the suggestions! I'm already considering  the idea of securing guests for a potential Q/A segment, possibly towards the end of the broadcast, Rest assured, I'll leave ample time for questions from both the panelists and online questions. Granted, there are such a large amount of guests I'd like to have featured-some I'd even like to help me host the event as well, i'm not exactly an experienced host and all-but I've got not a single person guaranteed just yet. At this time, I'm trying to figure out the discussion topics and create some sort of an schedule for how the event will go before I begin poking people :) 


    I'm very interested in any ideas that can shared for potential discussion topics as well as potential Hangout members both from the community and special guests. Any help in this area will allow this idea to become more concrete and therefore, move more speedily :)

Project Isthmus and November Lima   Team Up For Some Special Missions, With Prizes! (Day 4 / Release 4 Thread) Continuing the exciting new mission contest series we started with Linda B  and Ethan Lepouttre earlier in the week as they tour NL-1331 through many great cities, on their way to the Orlando anomaly! This mission series commemorates the four Obsidian Artifact glyph images that the Project Isthmus team posted; now that we have reached the final glyph we released, this will be the final mission in this particular series.   The rules are simple: 1) The day of the NL event you will find a new mission available in your city (close to the NL venue) 2) Be first (or one of the first) to complete that mission and learn it's pass phrase  3) Return here and make a comment that includes your in-game agent name, and the pass phrase If you are quick enough, you will qualify for a first place prize to be given to you in person by Linda and Ethan at the NL event! (Yes, you must be presen

Glyph Talk 1/5: The Senders I’ve got a series of related topics and theories when it comes to the glyphs and the glyph language we see coming from the portals. In this first post, I’m going to focus on the senders themselves. Before I begin I want to set out a couple of definitions.  -- A meme is an idea or concept that spreads from person to person within a culture. -- A memetic language is a language based on units of culture.   Based on the research gathered from around the world and shared with me (thank you Agent Codon011), I want to propose three theories.   Theory 1: Glyphs are a universal memetic language. Theory 2: There are two different ideological groups of senders. Theory 3: There are some glyphs that one side will not use because it is not part of their culture.   Theory 1: Glyphs are a universal memetic language Rather than an actual written language like humans have today, glyphs impart concepts directly to the viewer’s brain where they are mulled over and considered by
