ATTN: Resurrection Movement - Nov. 13

Team, I think you should stay away from "The Castle" for the time being. Yes, it is your assigned destination in just over 2 weeks, but you must keep your decisions quiet, until the time comes, as to which of you from both the Holy Quintet and Codename Fortress will meet up there. Just make sure both groups are represented.

-the fugitive

ATTN: Resurrection Movement

Team, I know things got messed up 5 months ago, but now I want you people to help again. Within the next 5 weeks, decide who's gonna meet up at the location specified in some stuff I privately sent to you. This goes for each of the two groups of the Resurrection Movement: Holy Quintet and Codename Fortress.

Please make a decision as soon as you can. Just make sure at least one from each group shows up.

Twitter broke my mind again on October 10

This is a compilation of the tweets on the FugitiveStatus roleplay account as well as the resulting Twitter spree on my regular account during and after the "Who to follow" list incident on the morning of October 10, 2014.

Nov. 29, 2014: positives and negatives

In considering any attempt at abandoning the finality of the [5161814] final mission, I've tried to list several factors as to why I should or should not go back to yet another Otafest-related event... aside from the 2nd pin trading party on Oct. 4, 2014.
This list should be updated regularly until late Nov. 2014 or when a decision is made.
Contents last updated: Nov. 12, 2014

More bad news (Op/Res)

UPDATED AT 3:19 PM

I think another character's gonna become hostile in Op/Res episode 4 now! (Click "Read more")

AFFECTED MEDIA: 
-Opposition/Resurrection episode 3 "Excessive rotations can prove dangerous"
-Opposition/Resurrection episode 4 "Echoes of forbidden nostalgic entities"

Who's part of the Opposition now? (Op/Res update)

NOTE: The events of [5161814], as well as development of Op/Res fiction, has no relation to the May 2014 killings. While Op/Res is loosely based on events from June-Dec. 2012 and April-May 2013, any similarities to other events are coincidental.

There could be a drastic change as to which characters are Opposition members in Opposition/Resurrection if my mind goes unchecked. Click "read more".

AFFECTED MEDIA: 
-Opposition/Resurrection - unspecified future episodes

[5161814] phase 3 (May 18) STATUS REQUEST

NOTE: The events of [5161814], as well as development of Op/Res fiction, has no relation to the May 2014 killings. While Op/Res is loosely based on events from June-Dec. 2012 and April-May 2013, any similarities to other events are coincidental. Due to increased transparency, it has since been clarified that "fictional counterparts" are involved in future episodes.

UPDATED
May 19: new tweets listed, and all tweets linked.
May 20: Even more tweets combined and listed.
July 12: Links provided to the Otafest debriefings REDUX, released on July 29, 2014.

Data cannot be fully extracted at this time. However, what we did extract can be classified as not only a change in status quo in the fictional dramatization Opposition/Resurrection, but as a possible form of retribution. Maybe considering 2010 and 2014 as "book ends" according to TV Tropes isn't enough. Click "Read more".

AFFECTED MEDIA: 
-Opposition/Resurrection - unspecified future episodes

[5161814] phase 2 (May 17) STATUS REQUEST

Minor info corrected May 19, 2014. Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate was released in 2012, not 2013. I should have remembered that inhibitor filler episode named "august 4 total corruption".

This is a list of data as it was interpreted at the time, including some completed objectives and info about a brink-of-AUTOMATIC-FAILURE situation at the time. Click "Read more".

[5161814] phase 1 (May 16) STATUS REQUEST

Minor info updated May 19, 2014.

This is a list of initial interpretations about objectives at the time. Click "Read more".

Op/Res episode 3 sneak preview [5161814]

Due to how long it's taking me to actually start working on (let alone animating) the final scenes for Op/Res episode 3 "Excessive rotations can prove dangerous", and the fact that I have my (hopefully) final [5161814] mission at Otafest 2014, I have decided to release a sneak preview to the episode. Click "read more" to see the video right on this blog site.

May 15: A first-encounter objective

In keeping with the idea of possible first-encounters for certain characters, I reveal a cosplay character objective while discussing minor changes between Madoka Magica and its first movie, Beginnings....

May 14: An on-camera message

A video log was posted earlier today... Click "read more" for some further info and a link.

May 8 fugitive report update

Here is an update we received about the fugitive's possible... appearance, so to speak.

Paranoid tweets on May 7

I found myself quite paranoid today and Twitter-spreed a bit. To see the tweets, click "Read more".
4:14 PM: New tweet from 4:12 PM posted.

"@Nenshi segment"

We've also gotten reports that there was a video segment intended to be linked via Twitter.

April 25 fugitive report

UPDATED 12:19 am
[This post was made due to the paranoid belief that any appearance of me (Jack Y.) was leaked to the public and due to a severe lack of self-esteem.]

We are getting reports that the so-called "fugitive of society" may have been spotted and filmed on local television (without his knowledge, obviously) in the area throughout the morning and afternoon of April 25.

Clue drop, April 25, 2014

An interactive page with short descriptions of each of the 11 items can be found here.

Since I'm being leaked, I figured it's time to drop some clues. START SPECULATING. @Otafest #unfinishedbusinessNMD pic.twitter.com/6yxR353A2D

March 24 status report available

This document has now been removed since the victory in the [5161814[ final mission. Thank you for your cooperation.

"First encounter" policies

Over the past few years, I've seen more than one person show up at Otafest as a particular character. I'm open to this idea. Although, this kind of situation has been somewhat detrimental for recent personal objectives during 2013's fear/survival mission and its overtime extension.

Status report, February 9

The fugitive had been on the loose for the past few hours.

He was believed to have attended a theatre screening of Anohana the Movie.
Days before, he declared a potential case of "jumping into it knowing nothing about the series". Luckily, this had not occurred. However, here is a list of status results....
