DECK'ARD, I've made my own bitlink to the OP - http://bit.ly/U5kGCl. Is it OK to use this one instead of the one you provided, since it has all the info in it?
Yep, good idea actually.
The one I'm spreading being the short one to get people to start asking questions, and then a second with everything to confirm it.
Cheers mate, you're exactly the sort of person the game was made for.

Only problem with Anonymous is that they've got a terrible image. The press would just use it as an excuse to smokescreen a lot of the info as the ravings of crazed hackers... and the public would buy it.
Good point actually.
I'd like to think we can just rely on a butterfly-effect of concerned citizens, but Facebook testing suggests people are struggling with the enormity of this. One person even wanting to wait for proof of the whistleblower's car being sabotaged. Could be a long wait for that one!
I'm picking sources to send it to with a good track-record in this area already, some independent journalists in particular look promising. But it would still require the wider platform of a publication or television channel to get it out there.
Online is by far the most promising to force an issue, but it needs the loudest voices.
Or Tom Watson, or any MP, taking advantage of Parliamentary Privilege in the House Of Commons. That would blow the whole thing sky high.
AMAZING.

Anyone on here from Rochdale?

Otherwise I hope his curiosity gets the better of him with the email subject.

His website says he's MP for West Bromwich East. There's an interesting constituency name.
Just title it "concerned constituent" lol.
I'm going with 'The public have a right to know', no politician or journalist can resist that.
Anyone posted it on Somethingawful yet?
They should go crazy with it.
Up to you, depending on who you are aiming at.
They have 2 different effects, some people can't seem to comprehend #1138 but others get overwhelmed by all of #923 and #1138 in the OP.
You need both to work, but #1138 is the smoking gun that should make people wake up and start asking questions.
Edit: Once they can comprehend it, the 2 articles on this page are then the independent confirmation of what they are thinking.

Thanks guys, that first post is so informative.
Glad you found it helpful, information is power.
People should also note that information has been suppressed for decades, and that when people came forward with more information all manner of strange things started happening. Such strange things having a habit of getting in the way of finding the truth and getting justice for the victims of child abuse.
I repeat my call, and the opposition's, and the whistleblowers from the previous scandals, for a full overarching public inquiry that can collect all the information together to assist with getting to the truth, identifying the perpetrators, and encouraging as many of their victims to come forward as possible knowing their safety is assured with it being conducted in public.
If that call is not heeded then let that overarching public inquiry continue here, on the Internet.

Team17 deleted my post from the Worms Facebook wall. How sad, I wouldn't want to go into the backstory of me and them as it would distract from what we are doing here.
My post has also been deleted from the Independent's Facebook wall despite them running an article about a 50 year old "establishment cover-up" of child abuse.
I have yet to receive one reply to the emails I have sent to people or organisations with the summaries since I started doing them.
It's up to you GAF to ensure justice is seen to be done, and the rest of the Internet.

You're coming across a bit obsessive here, so maybe take a step back for awhile. Everyone understands how tragic and serious the whole saga is, we don't need you and your hyperbole and nitpicking dominating the discussion.
It's depressing enough as it is.
I'm not concerned with how I'm coming across, I'm quite happy with what I've achieved in my life.
And I can't think of much better a cause to get obsessive about anyway, this is ONLY information. Information that is ALREADY out there. Not really much to fear from that, unless you happen to be implicated or complicit. So let's spread the information far and wide because none of the people who should seem to be doing so.

Hmm, I missed two whole pages of posts before posting that. I can see why you'd be frustrated but parts of my outlook stand.
I don't really think he's going about it in an effective way, his approach is very militant and I think that stifles discussion and discourages people to get involved, hence my suggestion to step back a little.
I did not intend to derail, I apologise if you think I am.
Do bear in mind that the more public places will have to be cautious about avoiding anything that could be seen as libellous in the light of what happened to the BBC - to some extent, it's a chilling effect in action.
No problem with that as long as the pressure is kept up until it finally blows.
Obsessive, and a bit grandiose. You are doing great work in this thread, but you're starting to come off as Alex Jones at his craziest. I feel like you're going to work yourself into a breakdown because news outlets aren't taking posts from a random person on a video game message board seriously enough to run on their shows or in their publications. Seriously. There are some pretty well researched and documented posts on Above Top Secret, but no news organization is going to run it as a story. Or any news organization running a story researched by an amateur sleuth on a message board.
I think you need to take a step back and get some perspective of YOU and how you relate to this case. Which is that you don't. At least, in any kind of official capacity. In fact, I'm sure it is probably against policy of pretty much every news outlet in the world to take information from strangers unconnected to a case in any way, no matter how accurate their research is. You're just a random guy on the internet. I think you are skirting dangerously close to thinking you are a part of the case, and that isn't healthy.

Sorry but disagree.
Alex Jones deals in speculation, I'm dealing in facts and linking them together because I coded videogames. Don't get it? Not surprising really considering the scale and implications of it. No need to have a pop at me though, there's a lot better targets.
Have you found the holes yet? Because I keep asking everytime someone says I'm mad.
Are you okay? Genuinely. Claiming to be the only one who sees the truth because you've coded video games: these aren't the words of someone who is okay. You might want to take a step back from this whole thing.
It was saying a logical approach to things, but feel free to twist it.
On a more relevant note it's still there on the Independent's wall this time.
I'm not even saying what you are posting isn't true or factual or good work. In fact, I said you were doing a great job. It just seems like you are getting overly invested in your role in the case. Which is that you don't have one in the official capacity. It isn't about the work, it is about how you view your work and role in the grander scale of this whole mess. That's not taking a pop at you. It's genuinely worrying how invested and manic you seem to be getting with it all. I don't know you, I've never played Worms, I've never followed your posts. It's still weird to see someone appear to be slipping into obsession and mania. Maybe you aren't at all, but that is how it is appearing to multiple people in this thread. That's what they are trying to tell you. Not that you are doing terrible work (although I think someone did). People are concerned that it seems like you are getting dangerously obsessed in such a short time.
I've been trying not to, but it's handy when you are trying to psychoanalyse someone you don't know over an Internet forum.

Don't like the message smear the messenger. I commend the job thats been done here and am happy someone is in here doing it. Everyone I've shown this thread has appreciated it.
Don't worry, got a flat inspection at 2 and off to BK for King Of The Day.
I will have my breather
Thanks, appreciate that.
It hasn't been easy, on multiple levels.

It really is breathtaking but, even more amazing, I would have pretty much NO IDEA of any of this going on if it wasn't for the good work by Deck and others in this thread.
It's feels kind of paradoxical in that the more this... 'situation' grew the easier it seems to have been to cover up. Usually letting more people in on a scheme leaves more avenue's for it coming undone and exposed, but if this really has panned out to the degree that Deckard's home-brew investigation suggests, then the complete opposite has happened here.
