9/13 TUES

Today I slept, went to the store, learned Arabic, saw a presentation on Greenland & Denmark (G is part of D’s property) & Canada.

Nabil left this morning.

Shaker & Adel came to me to ask what we should do, so I said Arabic lessons in the morning, then lunch. After lunch. After lunch, some people went to the beach, while a few of us stayed and talked. Then Tina, Robin, Juliette & I went to the store, great.

Great news! A group of girls got together & figured out PB, and I was pissed – it’s a major no-no to do that – on your own or not at all. So I got an idea tonight – confuse & conquer. I need to get ‘em all to agree, but I think they will. What I’m gonna do is: the first thing I (or another PB) says is what it is, the dice don’t matter. We have to give them at times a number someone chooses, so there will be no suspicion.

This is a temporary arrangement.

God, what
POWER

POLAR BEAR
WE WANT TO CHANGE THE GAME, BECAUSE SOME OF THE OTHER STUDENTS HAVE DISCUSSED IT. WE FIGURED IT OUT ON OUR OWN, SO THIS ISN’T FAIR.

I’LL MAKE UP A NUMBER (OR ONE OF THE OTHER PB’S) & WE WILL ALL GO ALONG WITH IT. MAKE IT SO THEY ARE CORRECT SOMETIMES, SO IT WILL CONFUSE THEM. ONLY TEMPORARY.
MAJORITY RULES

Marian [the next is written by her] -> This has the pungent odor of a corrupt government, one in which the pursuit of elite power or knowledge is held more important than the laws (which here are asked to be altered) somewhat like a 1984 saga in which the government can change the past by erasing or changing newspaper articles. It is understood that those PB’s-in-question have ina sense, violated the “Tell no other” pact, yet it is our fault for not initiating them as soon as they discovered the secret. If we were to blatantly misrepresent our sacred game, then we have violated the core of our organization.: the essentials would be lost and we would be left a group with an identity no more. Thus, being no longer Polar Bears, we would be left –ashamedly- liars. Thank you.
