The Syndicate

On February 27th 2009, a image of an eye was posted on the message board 4chan. The picture came with this brief message:

"Hello. We represent a group interested in finding the top 0.00000051 intelligent people in the human population.

A message is hidden in this image.

Follow the clues, and you will find eternity."

This cryptic message spread like wildfire among the Internet community, inspiring an almost cult-like group of people obsessed with finding out what any of it meant. The image lead to a audio file, which lead to a website, which lead to a set of coordinates, which led to a single phone number.

You are one of the first seven to call that number, and have therefore been allowed into stage two of testing.

The first stage was designed to focus on cryptology and general knowledge. This stage will test social skills, resourcefulness, and logic.

For those who make it to the end, eternity awaits.

Three Chambers is an interactive social online text RPG. Eight people awaken trapped in a bunker, forced to work together in order to solve increasingly complicated puzzles. But, one of them is not who they say they are. One of them is a mole hired to weed out the weaker candidates. Everyday, the mole will kill one member of it's choice. His/Her job is to mislead and spread misinformation among the group. Your job is to identify, isolate, and eliminate the Mole, while solving the puzzles in under a week. If you eliminate the Mole, the killings will stop. But, keep in mind that the Mole can also choose to not kill someone.

How to play:

You interact with the landscape by using one of four commands. Post these in the thread whenever you want to do something.
This will make me give more information on the item you mention.
This will make you interact with a certain item. Note that you don't have to write "interact". If you want to flip a switch, you could just write "flip switch". You can be as specific as you like.
This will make you pick up an item and put it in your inventory. You can only carry one item at a time.
This will make you use your inventory item on something. You can also use your inventory item on another player. For example: "use gun on insertnamehere" would cause you to shoot me.

You don't have to say these exact words, but these are the only four abilities you have.

These interactions will only be responded to when the Acolyte, the person who is in charge of this particular challenge is on site. Translation: I'll only respond when I'm online. When my signature says "The Acolyte is In", I'm ready to respond to posts. When my signature says "The Acolyte is Out", I'm not available, and any interactions will have to wait until I'm online to be processed.

That was one of our earlier trials. The results were disastrous.

This looks insanely complex, but i think it will be manageable for me since it is such a small game. I will give it a go

Contrary to the rumors, this game still exists. Please sign up.

Alright, I am in!!

If I weren't hosting, I would do this for sure. Running a big game is more work than I imagined it would be, though.

Only three more, and we can start! Hopefully we can begin tomorrow or Wednesday.

Fantastic! We only need two more, and we can get started!

The last person to sign up will receive a free gift basket.

Hopefully, we'll start tonight!

Correction!

Roles will be sent out tonight, but the game will start tomorrow morning. Be ready!

I'm sorry that I have to play with your emotions like this, but contrary to what I believed earlier, I have some extra time tonight, so the game is definitively starting tonight.

PM's are sent out, if you have not received one, PM me.
