Nanofortress is unsafe due to a virus.  Please fix this as soon as possible.

This virus should not be deleted. It's the main reason Meph gets his revenue through selling your personal information to FBI. So don't panic. Move along.

Meph being an undercover FBI (or more likely CIA) agent would explain all of the low profile traveling through various countries... He could be using this forum as a cover. His posts about traveling make it so he seems to have a legitimate reason for being there, but the fact that he posts no details allows him to adjust his plans as necessary to assassinate dictators and various other people the U.S. doesn't like... My bet is if he chooses to go to Russia Snowden ends up dead...

And that also explains why Meph has a private Reddit subsection for Masterwork that nobody can get access to. He is clearly using it to receive the latest target orders...

Oh, mystery unravels.

But if he tries to "persuade" Snowden to stop being.... he might be "persuaded" himself by Russian KGB. You know those russians - always paranoic and plotting. I even think that they can be reading this thread now to be ready to meet Meph on the border with machineguns and their usual infantry zerg-horde..... It even might be that there is one among us who is russian.....

Oh wait, that's me:) And Deon too. Oops.

I don't think the CIA would use reddit to send anything anywhere. More likely some kind of dead drop, or secure satellite communication via micro transmitter built into something nobody would ever look twice at.

No matter what, it's almost guaranteed a super computer somewhere has at least glanced at these posts because of a few keywords, and possibly added Meph to some kind of list.

And now I want DF to have spies that infiltrate other civilizations to steal information and other such sneaky stuff... (with the game actually knowing what civ they are from originally)

Templar order is cool, the knights hospitalier became some great douchebags at malta though. Pirates confiscating goods.

It's a diversion!  He's going to have to "take care of" all the people on this board who have tried to reveal his secret identity!

(We all love you, Meph.)
