Not cheating should be the result of a choice and not because you just don't know that you can cheat. The trouble is that in real life chosing not to cheat has always worked against me...well I guess I'll make the same choice, so I'll stick with my true score.Anna Chanouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13406886350082343843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-23890151877979044622008-08-23T06:59:00.000-04:002008-08-23T06:59:00.000-04:00A little off topic - but am I the only one who has...A little off topic - but am I the only one who hasn't gotten ARG related emails from Hans Van Whatshisface?<BR/><BR/>Im registered and all - I log in - I test...but no emails have ever come my way.<BR/><BR/>Has anyone else NOT received email about/from the ARG?<BR/><BR/>I'm starting to feel as loved as Nikki and PauloEGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07156013404462601382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-44385843311978184952008-08-23T04:25:00.000-04:002008-08-23T04:25:00.000-04:00I think the cheat is intentional, and, furthermore...I think the cheat is intentional, and, furthermore, TPTB had to know it would be all over the web in a matter of a day or two. The anagram "patience is bitter" could be a clue. It sounds similar to "patience is better". The anagram could be telling us that it is better to be patient and play the game by "the rules". Those that do not use the cheat may be rewarded. Those that do use the cheat may even be kicked out of the Dharma Initiative recruiting drive completely. In other words, this first test MIGHT be more an ethics test than anything else. "Press Space Judgment" means those who press the space bar will be judged.-https://www.blogger.com/profile/00234160590925540241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-65303433287321655422008-08-22T23:57:00.000-04:002008-08-22T23:57:00.000-04:00I'm gonna take a chance and not "cheat".

I dare say that this post is no spoiler at all, and that those of us just finding out about this now are screwed -- the true "leaders" are the first ones who got a 99 (or 100) and I expect that the board will show names in order of who reached 99 (or 100).<BR/><BR/> - mnwDr. Strangemondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15415824094236493555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-2599936790475914872008-08-22T11:24:00.000-04:002008-08-22T11:24:00.000-04:00It's a "Press Space" Judgment Evaluation.

It doesn't seem to make sense to put the word Judgment in there, really.

First three times I managed to do it I got only 52 points, then I got couple of times 96 points and then I was very surprised when I got 100. So it's possible to get 100 using described trick - you don't have to fool the server :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06852249754585345657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-67855756120660605932008-08-22T08:58:00.000-04:002008-08-22T08:58:00.000-04:00Well it seems pretty certain to me that it is in-g...Well it seems pretty certain to me that it is in-game. "Pressurized spatial" is a clear hint - notice that the pieces are not even spatial (3D) but only planimetric (2D). Anyway, I wonder how has anyone found out about it...<BR/>And the score you get after pressing spacebar is the same as the seconds remaining WHEN you press spacebar (I waited, pressed it at 75 and got 75 points). Therefore I think you can get 100 if you press it REALLY quick, which I have not managed so far - always takes one sec and I get 99 at most.matochachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10170096595986843843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-36825103497689695272008-08-22T08:54:00.000-04:002008-08-22T08:54:00.000-04:00Zachary I agree.

If Dharma are looking for people with the top scores, then this is the way to do it. In my opinion I believe that this is a mistake in that there were no "clues" given to find out this cheat. But Hoodlum mistake or no it shall have to be written into the ARG storyline, no doubt with RuckusGuy as the culprit. I shall still attempt a full score but there has been no contact from in-game (Dharma) or outside (Hoodlum) as to the intergrity of cheating, but I advise everyone to do so because they can not go back over this. The site has been glitchy since it was put up so I say write it in and let us get on with the ARGAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01265629148684181270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-20292853599028881402008-08-22T08:32:00.000-04:002008-08-22T08:32:00.000-04:00Here therehere is my 100http://img396.imageshack.u...Here there<BR/><BR/>here is my 100<BR/><BR/>http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/6210/59470388pt8.jpgbigsimpsinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12175391083648523785noreply@blogger.com
