Right now i guess i am not so much concerned about seeing this as much as if this is actually relevent to our subject matter, or just a fake set up by someone who would obtain his humour from setting up a hoax on something that could be considered "suspicious" by many.

Is there any indication if this person's video is legitimate? I also noticed it said it was added ONE month ago. A tad odd...

I found it suspicious for a few moments, but I am now convinced it is a... fan video, if you will. I can sense a decent amount of Paranoia in it, but it is not a genuine creation by any of the muses.

Sir,

Thank you for your patience with us.

Somewhere, a woman is reading a story to her son. He does not speak. He cannot hear her. He seems to be staring at a cross on the opposite wall. He has not spoken for almost half of a year. The doctors say he may never get better. Every now and then her voice cracks, and she begins to cry. She continues the story.

Gregory Miller.

In a lonely town, a couple have begun seeing strange people in their own house. Strange shadows... only seen in the corner of their eyes. They whisper a name. A long, Greek name. The couple know what they want, they simply do not where it is. No one does, it seems. They can't tell anyone. Maybe I will.

I am uncertain who these are. Maybe the Masons.

Two men, both of whom were once friendly acquaintances with one another, are now too familiar with loneliness. Their pack has disappeared, and they now have nobody they can speak of their hobby to. They have been slowly realizing what they are. They are afraid. They are alone.

The two remaining Cubers.

A man sits by a gasoline torch. He scrawls notes to himself. He writes down contact information, suspicious events, anything he believes can lead him to who he wants. He does not even realize what he has become. He does not even realize that he is dead. He will not sleep tonight; his plans are too important. This vision may be old. I cannot tell. He has many way of getting around my observations.

Donald Wilson?

A powerful figure sits upon a throne of books. He is everywhere there is madness. He is practically immortal. He controls the minds of so many. He is afraid. He is afraid not only for himself, but for an entire plane of existence.

Father Paranoia, possibly.

There is another. A person who does not fully understand their purpose in all of this. A messenger for a side he believes to be good. It would appear he is misled. I do not know who he is or where he is. I can only feel his paranoia, his fear.

Jaime?

I sit alone in my station. I am going over the plans. Looking at the schedule for next week, I realize that I will have to speak for the first time in years. This makes me uncomfortable for some reason.

It seems you have at least one connection with humans...you gotta do what you gotta do, like it or not.

Thank you for this update.

Would it be fairly safe to assume that when an official video for, whatever we would be calling these, that it would be announced, hinted, or posted here by yourself love, or even one of the other "higher ups?"

That is a definite yes.

It seems that some are trying to debase the importance of the videos by creating their own versions.

[jimko]

excellent

Heh, all of this is making me think about how insignificant everything is. Also, i keep seeing things flash by in the sides of my eyes. Not necessarily the corners, but just enough that its outside of my immediate view. It's a little annoying, but im not worrying.

Pretty humorous. ;D

I prefer the ketchup is a vegetable one, myself.

I did have a good laugh at the end of that one i must admit, but now we know what to expect, at least I think so...

I don't think so, because these are decidedly fake, and Love was going to inform of the next video's release.

Also, in terms of trying to emulate the real videos, the one I had posted was a little better done in that respect.

[loque]

I think NotAgentClark videos are nice. The last one reminds me of Waverley Hills.

I wasn't able to view this earlier today, but now I can. I'm interested in your thoughts, Love.

'tis a private video nadeline, i dont know if that is just for love, but just to tell you my good sir/madam.

Those clips come from some old educational movie about schizophrenia on archive.org, sans soundtrack, of course. That is very peculiar.

TELL ME NOW, WHAT IS CUBING?

See, it all goes back to geometry.

A long time ago, this Greek guy named Euclid decided that he wanted to know the volume of a cube--a Platonic solid with six sides, each side a square.

(Protip: Platonic solids are the ones whose faces are all exactly identical.)

Now, Euclid sat down and thought about it, and this is what he came up with: the volume of a cube can be calculated by measuring one edge, and multiplying the number by itself, then by itself again. For example, if you had a cube that was 2 inches on an edge, its volume would be 2"*2"*2", or 2 inches to the power of three--2 cubed.

Therefore, cubing is the mathematical process by which you multiply a number by itself three times, so named because it is also the process by which you calculate the volume of--you guessed it--a cube.

Any questions?

[Faustus]

No, no, my friend. Cubing hearkens back to the artist, Cézanne (but made famous by Pablo Picasso), who took objects in his paintings and represented them in a "cube" form, from multiple angles, creating a new viewpoints from which to express his art.

[snowfox090]

Bah, my version existed first. Heretic!

[furikku]

Cubing is also a cooking term referring to cutting ingredients for a meal into cube-shaped chunks.

Now we have three definitions! Hurrah!

[Faustus]

We could also be Gleaming the Cube.

Let's not forget nature's harmonic 4-day Time Cube!

But on a serious note, I still can't tie all this cube business together- from the 333-333-333, to the 9 brothers & sisters, to the name of this forum (speaking of which, anyone know that puzzle game called the Happy Cube? Probably just coincidence). The only guess I'm willing to make from all this is that there will be 9 videos.

Read the News post. The number of videos has already been discussed.

It's sort of a recurring theme, is all. Makes things nice and neat and pretty for us, having a lovely pattern to connect it all.

Though a thought strikes me... 333-333-333- nine threes, each in three sets. Nine brothers. Paranoia has an alliance with two others. Could there be other alliances?

I'm now wondering if there's any honorifics I should attach to their names. I know Love calls Paranoia "Father," but he's not mine, so that would probably be improper...

[agent47]

i have arrived here for my interest in the orginal intent of this board.
Is there any estimated date of the surving cubers return?

[seanstrife]

So far agent47, we have all of nothing as it comes to the surviving cubers.

[Witness]

The original cubers are not needed even if they do return. They were failures and nothing more than gluttons.
