W3 LIVING ENCRYPTION PARTY

[dropoffs]

[ And into this hall we are that somehow fits everyone alive. There are instructions on the whiteboard... Which are...

As a group, create and decide a phrase to use as an encryption, which will be used as a port for enhanced private communication. When everyone decides and agrees, submit your proposal here by 8 PM PST / 11 PM EST. Ideally, we are looking for something not too long! Maybe 2-4 words. If the consensus is that we prefer an ooc funny phrase, then there will be a way to use that (it sent over the wrong way, got filtered incorrectly, etc.).

ICly, you guys can brainstorm on what you want the phrase to be. ]

That's what I would assume. Could use another language ...

[roseoftexas]

... Okay, but if we all need to remember it maybe we keep it in the common tongue. [ wait. ] Aren't we being translated anyway?

[tombtaker]

Only aloud. There's plenty of Draconic writing around here ...

[drymonster]

Is anyone even going to be able to type that??

[tombtaker]

It's a related alphab-- I'm not getting into linguistics. It's not going to work here, I'm only pointing out there's other languages floating around this place. You aren't all speaking and writing Common.

[drymonster]

I know, I'm just saying I don't think that's going to work for a password unless everyone has the Draconic keyboard installed on their I.R.I.S.es.

[roseoftexas]

We can read the messages people send over the IRIS though, right?

[tombtaker]

I believe if we put in effort, it would stay, but you're right. There's the chance of it getting garbled in the translation.

[roseoftexas]

[ i can't wait for it to get garbled hehe ]

So... something appropriately secure, but not so secure we can't replicate it. [ dryly: ] Easy.
