The Adair floppy

Before the ARG began Kolya (then leveragedd) tweeted about a floppy that was being offered to him by someone he didn't know by name. Not knowing what was on the disk and not wanting to give out his address, Kolya provided the mysterious man with three different addresses. One was his own and the other two belonged to twitter volunteers and community members ZAD-Man and ecbremner.

The ARG begins
Later when Kolya started tweeting about mysterious lectures and people started suspecting the ARG had begun, ZAD-Man, being one of the potential recipients, asked again about the floppy in this tweet. Kolya then recalls that it was described as being an Adair Research floppy from 1995. This lead to the discovery of a series of twitter accounts, one of which belonged to Steven Porter who had previously tweeted about sneaking a floppy from his office which led to the the assumption that he was the person who sent the disk to Kolya.

A valvearg.com forum user by the name stevenport was discovered, as he had already posted in the thread about the burgeoning ARG, via this user one could email Steven, which proved to be crucial as he could not speak freely on twitter. Via email he then confirmed that he was the person who sent the floppy to Kolya.

The great order
In the original reply from Steven Porter (found here) Steven makes reference to a "great order" that Kolya is set to "impose". When asked about this curious expression Kolya seemed excited and soon sent the tweet that lead to the confirmation of Konzortium as the new website.

State of the floppy
According to Steven Porter's about.me page the disk is, as it should have been for a while now, on its way to Kolya. This probably means it is on the way to one of the three addresses he was given, only one of which actually goes to Kolya as noted above.
