I don't get how Op doesn't know who Tachy is. It makes NO sense. She knows where she worked, she knows what she worked on while there, but she can't ID this chick?

That's just it Panda, she doesn't. She never called Tachyon by that name until after the first drop. She knows that she works in the Order, and was a helper, but also said that helpers work off site and travel often. And no one has seen Tachyon's face as of yet. So since helpers are off site most of the time, they can't really say who ran off and who didn't.

I've updated the first post to contain the list of unsolved things so far. Hope that helps!

According to one of the early watchingcassie videos on Tachyon, Tach had a whole series of videos up before she wiped her account clean (and apparently reposted a few, backdated?). I saw the wiped account a few days before her vids resurfaced.

Maybe Op caught wind of her videos and knew of her position in the Order but never identified the maker?

I think Tachyon is her code name in the bureau, not her real name or the name she would have used working for OpA.

That or her parents were idiots. I could just imagine the "Tacky Tachyon" taunts.

That would fit in with the fact that Tach said "I learned my lesson" in one of the early vids. I'm still wondering what she meant by that.

ETA:

Someone mentioned this in another thread--not sure where to put it. How does Tachyon have a babysitter if Op (still) doesn't know who she is? Last we knew we were looking for Tach for Op, and now she has a tail on her?

What about Tach's obsession with the World Series?

From Op's note on Tach's latest video:
Tachyon didn't behave for her sitter...and unfortunately he will not be able to sit her again in the future (or anyone else for that matter).

We will see to it that her next sitter is a little more "proactive," and less tolerant of any bad behavior.
I'm starting to think that Tachyon might have been more aggressive than we initially thought...

you should probably add,
"d3c0d3 4 k3y / c0d3d 1n70 l337 5p34k 17 3qu4l5 'T'"
because we haven't figured out what she means by "equals t" or whatever.

T in 1337 is 7
brother = 10033 = 7

Yes, i know that T in leet speak is 7, but what im trying to get at is, we haven't figured out what she means by all this leet speak, "decode a key/decoded into leet speak it equals T". i still think it's a loose end. but whatever, all powerful mods know all. :lol:

The key was looee which in leet is 10033 which summed to 7 which is leet for T.

So we were supposed to go T in leet is 7. What sums to 7 that is meaningful to Tachyon? 10033 decoded from 1337 is looee, the key.

Did that come out better?
