4/14 Update - The Father Revealed

The Father Revealed

In the original story, Jadusable's fate was left ambiguous at the end, but now due to the tampering and infection of the Methods file repository and what appeared to be an inner conflict in BEN itself, new footage was presented to us on the original Jadusable account - letting us see what happened after the end of the original jadusable.wmv video.

As Jadusable delved deeper into the darkest recesses of the cartridge, despite ignoring the warnings from the voices in the game itself, he finally found what he was looking for in the edge of the game's existence - The Father. He appeared before Jadusable in his true form - not using a representation within the game itself anymore - and opened his eyes to stare through the avatar at the player behind it. Jadusable was only able to gaze  dumbfounded at the monolith's eldritch face before he was consumed and killed.

A few hours later another vulnerability opened up on the Methods of Revolution website, allowing players to quickly access the site and save/backup as much as they could from what had changed. Players found several cryptic audio codes, and the opportunity to "awaken the second player,". Although there was some dissent in the consensus, the players ultimately voted to awaken the second player. Who or what that it is, though, remains to be seen. 

The cycle has been broken, and now it appears that The Father's face sits resting again at the home page of Methods of Revolution. What could this signify?

Entering the Second Phase 

As we conclude the first phase of Awakening - for now - we begin to move the story forward in a different mediums. It should be said here plainly as a disclaimer that there will be real life locations being filmed. I know how passionate and methodical some players can be, so to help ensure good working relationships with the cast and crew, it is important to note that there will never be any hidden clues gained by doxxing these locations or trying to figure out where they are geographically.  The same goes for actors appearing as well. These are meant to take place in a fictitious world. 

Catch-up Mechanics

We are going to be working on a more streamlined and effective way to bring new and returning players up to speed, and part of that will be a website that will be rolling out sometime this month. While we have a wonderfully comprehensive timeline created by CircleHunter that is an invaluable resources for the hardcore players, the sheer size of it can be overwhelming to newcomers. We are in need of people who are able to help grow the community - either by creating easy and informative summary videos or info-graphics. If you think you can help, please send me a PM on Twitter or reach out to the mods on Discord.  

Discord / What's Your Mask Contest

We're less than fifty members away from having 1,000 concurrent members on our Discord! We've recently updated the #server-rules so be sure to check those out, and help flesh out some of the other channels. 

We're currently having a What's Your Mask Contest, a non-canon event where users can create custom made masks and submit pictures of them to be entered in a prize pool (win Steam games, cosmetic rewards in the ARG, etc). 

This is a great chance to form gaming communities, share your own artwork/creations in #art-gallery, or take part in one of our many contests! If there is a channel that we don't have that you think would be a good addition to the server, reach out to a moderator. As always, any concerns you might have with the server you can always reach me on Twitter.
