    Trust is a Commodity

    These are dark times fellow Citizens! With the recent disappearance of a key witness the Citizen Elite are cracking down on us, their Citizen Soliders!

    What Citizen One said does make sense. Anyone can join so infiltrators or double agents are a real threat.

    They mean to say background checks haven't been a concern up to this point...?

    I KNOW I am trustworthy, but how to prove it?

    looks like the numbers on the faces might lead us to something

    Hmm Might be a substitution code perhaps the hats have something meaningful about them

    Looks like Citizen 13 is under questioning. http://www.citizenskywatch.com/intel...0/testimony_13

    I don't know about this. If you cant trust Citizen 13 then we are all suspect. Who's gonna be next up for questioning? You, me, all the citizen soldiers?

    I think we need the whole transcript to decide for ourselves.

    So the reward 13 gets for providing us all with some answers (incomplete ones, even) is a knife in the back? Skywatch openly advertised his operations... This doesn't sit too right with me. I'm hiding my TomatoPowderKeg evidence ASAP.

    With what was said in the transcript it made this line from SpyWatches message a little clearer: "You lovelies taped all his confetti together, but you never asked what party it came from. "

    Citizen Swami, I'd recommend going underground for a while. With what happened to 13 I fear anyone connected with his operations will end up in the same boat with him. I know you're a good man and a great member for our cause but Citizen One doesn't seem to be rational right now. If you need any assistance let me know what I can do.

    This is a good point, Citizen Illusion. Citizen One is NOT being rational right now. Trust may be a commodity that is earned, but that earning goes both ways. What has Citizen One actually done to gain our trust beyond saying "trust me, I'm in charge?"

    I don't like this. I don't like it one bit. For safty's purposes I think I'm going to change my location again. It kept people from following me after Operation PAX, though they seemed to be more interested in Citizen 13 anyways it seems, but it could never hurt to go out there and just move.

    I don't like the way you're presenting yourself, One.

    Glad to see some of us are in agreement. We've got nothing to hide, but this might turn into a large scale witch hunt or something.

    Remember guys it was just a debriefing. Those kind of questions often get asked in that case. Don't jump the gun just yet till we see how this all pans out.

    I wish I could share your optimism, but the big picture of 13's ID with the big, bold "SUSPENDED" stamped on it just doesn't give me any comfort.

    There has always been a sense of distrust in this organization, but previously it was always directed outward. With this strong feeling now directed inwardly into the organization it may tear us apart. This may be exactly what Citizen Spywatch wants, he is manipulating Citizen One more than us! Remember fellow citizens, Citizen One is a man just like all of us, not a god. Lord help me if they disapprove of me saying this. I'm going to have to watch my back from both sides now but haven't we always said that truth is paramount?

    It looks like Citizen One and the Elite are going to throw us a bone. https://www.citizenskywatch.com/inte...nknown_enemies

    Maybe an attempt to regain the trust of those who are losing faith? Either way I am interested to see what kind of restricted material they have to share on this unknown enemy.

    Looks like things are getting interesting between Spywatch and SkyWatch. Pretty bold to leave a note on the doorstep of HQ if ya ask me and Citizen Q being given broad and sweeping powers to hunt down a possible communist mole sounds alarming to me. What happened to Citizen 13 I wonder?

    Hmmmm, Well I'm glad were gonna get rid of whoever the commie rat is.

    Hurm… this is sounding more and more like a witch hunt every day. I really want to trust the Citizen Elite, particularly Citizen One, but all of this paranoia and mistrust within our ranks has me unsettled. I hope whatever is at the bottom of all of this gets resolved quickly, because I'm beginning to question the objectivity of our Citizen Elite.

    I agree. I don't like the sound of the Inquisitor Citizen Q.

    Skywatch's own attitude is putting me on edge. Since when was McCarthy a member of our ranks?

    Lay low, friend. Let this wave of paranoia pass.

    I hope it does indeed pass...

    It seems strange Citizen One isn't on the situation. Busy? With what?
