"At last we shall reveal ourselves to the Jedi, at last we shall have revenge."
Should we reveal it eventually....It will be like the Jedi's discovering that the Sith orchestrated both sides of a war just to beat them.
It will be....glorious!

Right now, I have no intention of revealing our plans, however, that may or may not change as we progress with the operation.

If you eventually do own up, can I suggest you do it like 'Anonymous' supposedly did here: link. Because that is hilarious. XD

QBMP, would you be so kind as to send the final copy on 3rd as well? I think it's appropriate that it be sent by you, as it was your email that caused Apt to start commenting.
Um, the only thing I'd say is that it's my opinion that the final email should read as if it's just another pestering message. We shouldn't give the impression that we're not sending any more, rather we should leave Apt expecting more messages to turn up...except they won't, but he won't know that.
What say you?

Have about we do an end of year annoucement stating all the sneaky things we did this year? It could list all of our Operations and Campaigns.

The Facebook event (devilishly set up by Loki) is a skype-linked round-the-world Goodkind fan meet-up. I suggest our UK bretheren collude to track down and put a bag over Illy's head, tie him up and transport him to a secret location where he shall be released into a room with a skype connection just in time for the meet-up. Put a Goodkind's Goodfolk sign over the screen and I'm sure there will be a delicious rant forthcoming with which to greet the many fans across the world who logged in to tout the 'glory' (...threw up in my mouth a little) that is TG.

I wouldn't be so sure yet......rhulad was just making a guess......there's nothing to suggest they know it's a fake group.
I recoomend the next person to send out an email metions that whilst our forums are currently in the process of being established that Apt might like to join our Facebook community by searching for Goodkind's Goodfolk and requesting to join/be added as a friend.
Also, if we keep sending them from different email accounts it may look a little like a troll before we want it to - which I why I have established our administrative email account - goodkinds.goodfolk@yahoo.com
I propose that all new emails that we are sending out should be sent from this email. High Seeker Kitty should still use her own for the final email though.
I suggest that when whoever it is that is sending the email completes it that they should email it to the goodkinds.goodfolk@yahoo.com email and then I will send it to Apt and BCC in the original sender as well.
What do you think?

He may have sent it already which is fine since he was simple sending a membership deal advertisment thingy. He's our promo guy

Oh right, well I'll cross him off then. I'm next -- no idea what I'm gonna say!
EDIT: We also need one more person to compose a message for 26/05/11.

Seem Apt isn't going to take the bait, perhaps we should continue to force him to receive emails.
"We have chosen you to the representative, you have no choice in the matter!'
Ect. ect. with more ebook copies.

Have you guys seen Apt's update? PRICELESS!
The question is what do we do from here? I think we should continue to send him emails but they should look as if their just standard emails that get send to everyone -- perhaps we should spread out the schedule so that we're not bombarding him with books and it'll look more convincing so maybe a book a week, or something?. I also think we should wait to see if anybody else replies to 'High Seeker Kitty' and then proceed to troll them instead.
EDIT: I would have the Knight Commander's view on the progression of Operation Goodkind, please.
