I don't know why, but I think that you are talking about Lal, don't ask my reasoning...

Nope, it isn't Lal.

Maybe I should make it easier:

"Dwelling in the conspiracy."

How's that?
:D

I would guess Roa_Aoife.

No.
Should I give a hint?

Farael is who comes to my mind because of his conspiracy theories during WW, but I am likely off. A hint may be helpful.

The conspiracy is in the person's location, isn't it?

Not Farael.

Here's a hint - it has to do with the RL location.

Wow, this is really holding things up. Ok, step by step:

1. Search for the thread that gives the real locations.
2. Pick someone who's an active downer (I didn't pick an obscure one.)
3. Google the place along with "conspiracy."

And now you really should be able to get it. ;)

Sorry, too hard, I guess.
Whoever wants to can take the thread... *sigh*

Nope...don't quit. Is it in or out of the USA?

Out of the USA.
(In fact, some would say it isn't anywhere...)

Nope - in the spirit of mirth, it's a joke conspiracy I have in mind... (it should be one of the first results on Google)

Rune?

Nope.
I really did hide this one in plain sight, you know. ;)

Yes, but do you know why? ;)

Because it dawned on me when you said you were hiding it in the open that you were refering to Mac. I googled his town (I can't remember the name now) and it stated something like the biggest consiracy is if this town actually exists. That coupled with your other clues allowed me to know it was him.

Is a hint needed?

Thorongil perhaps?

Negative...but why do you say him?

Thorongil was Aragorns name when he raided the Corsairs of Umbars.
