Title: Gateskeeper?
Post by: Dinendae on <07-01-15/0839:24>: In the new Chrome Flesh PDF, Plan 9 mentions Gateskeeper in reference to Turbo Bunny, but I didn't catch the reference. Is Gateskeeper mentioned in another publication, or is this another 'sheep' incident, where we'll never know?

Post by: Wakshaani on <07-01-15/0856:19>: Gateskeeper has been mentioned several times, sometimes obliquely. You'll know more about Gateskeeper later.

For now, I'll let you play "Spot the references", and note that some do it without a name being involved, so a general search won't catch 'em all.

Good hunting!

Some things have a knack of finding you before you find them.

Post by: Reaver on <07-12-15/2047:23>: Lets face it, anything that can keep itself to such limited info about itself, while being "known" to the Jackpoint community?

They are a big collection of "info"whores, and manicial info busy bodies! (Hence why we love them! No them, no 'books' 😆)

So, these 'deeper' mysteries are probably either:

A: so cryptic/protected as to make discovery extremely hard.
B: actively thwarting/interceeding to stop people from looking.

Post by: The Wyrm Ouroboros on <07-13-15/0038:23>: Here's the thing, Reaver - there's a difference between 'this guy I know, Gateskeeper', and 'the Hidden Masters beyond the Veil'. The latter is a conspiracy (theory or otherwise); the former is just a guy. Gateskeeper is clearly the former. And Jackpoint doesn't usually look insanely close at many of the 7.2 billion other people on the planet, y'know?

Gates is not a metaphor, no. Gateskeeper's job revolved around protecting them. Or keeping one. It's complicated. :D
