    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    once in a session the auditor was out of the room and I was warming the cans before she came in. I used to stik them down the front of my pants to warm them best.
    They did come out really hot infact.
    I sort of thought she knew I did do that and later fantasize about her maybe warming the cans down her knickers before I had a session with her.
    Anyway, before session you get your rudiments 'flown' and one question is:
    'has a withhold been missed'
    meaning, did somebody almost find out something about you...

    I kept thinking of my fantasy with the cans and told her and my needle was probably 'rockslamming', so I had to tell her.

    She was only a student practicing her audting skills.
    In any case she went totally red in the face and was totally 'out-tr's' and we ended up finishing the session early.
    I never did get any more aditing with her....funny that...wonder why?

    "Rock slam: a rapid, irregular, jerky motion of the needle, varying in width. ``The needle goes crazy.'' Significance is unexplained here, but in other literature it is revealed that a rock slam indicates that the pc has an Evil Purpose. "

    Wouldnt have an "Evil Purpose" just get the auditor to end the auditing and tell you to gtfo?

    Personally i'm far more in favor with the trick that gives you a static, unmoving needle. I can see myself having much more fun with that.

    The closer the better.....Be open with it....Why???Cuz you can.....Hell get two people on each side of the test and talk to each other....

    Depends on antenna and what not. But close proximity is determined by xmission power. Law of squares and what not (The effect of RF increases in an inversely square relation to distance).

    But, looking at up to about 50ft. I play havoc on neighbor's TV all the time.
  6. Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    It would be quite funny to put little smoke canisters in your hands as you grasp the cans to make it look as if you're being electrocuted. Well maybe funny for 0.00 seconds anyway.

    Smearing an e-meter with Vaseline and pubes would make lulz.
    Watching the fool who did it get tossed into the party van would make even more.

    A winner is I, but sucks to be the fool.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    This is teh best thread I've seen upstairs in a long time and I feels it haz epic lul potential.

    Has anyone experimented with how having on like, magnetized rings on your fingers or something would effect it? Or maybe some kind of ring that has a little watch battery on the palm side. I know not about such things but maybe I'll give someone a brainstorm.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    I'd vote for some kind of way to introduce voltage into the meter. I'm somewhat of an electronicsfag, not an electrician but i work with electrical circuits all the time professionally.

    Someone actually almost friend my ohmeter because they set it on ohms, and then hooked the leads up to a car battery. Luckily, the meter had a fuse in it that blew to protect the meter. Still, i had to pay 30 for a new fuse (as opposed to $400 for a new meter).

    I wonder if scilons are smart enough to put a fuse in them? i kinda doubt it. Those meters are like 4 grand now arent they?

    Now...for it to actually fry an emeter i think you'd need quite a bit of amps going through it, not necessarily voltage. You'd probably have to use a 9 volt battery, or bigger, maybe one of those big ass brick sized 9 volts you can get at radio shack. You'd also have to have a fairly hefty piece of wire, or some sort of solid metal conductor, to carry the amps into the meter. a "microthin" piece of wire would probably just melt. Plus you might accidentally shock yourself.

    Not sure how it could be done, but just throwing ideas out to anyone who wants to try...

    A 0.5 F capacitor charged up. Will kill it real quick.
  11. eddieVroom Member

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    That would give you a real good kick too. Even if you're very good at hiding insulated conductors running to the palms of your hands, since your hands will be on the cans, you're in the circuit damn near any way you do this.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    You're all thinking too hard. As pointed out, this <ahem... cough, gasp, wheeze> religious artifact only measures resistance. The highest electrical resistance in the human body comes from your skin. Change that, up or down, and be at effect over Elron's great discovery.

    For example, if you coated your hands in a thin polymer (remember covering your hands with Elmer's in kindergarten?) it would greatly increase the resistance. If you put a dab of conductive grease on a fingertip, you would be in complete control. Lift the finger when you want a low reading. Put it down when you want a high reading.

    I only post this information out of heartfelt concern for the poor clams who are having difficulty with their auditing. I wouldn't want them to waste good money on valuable church services.



    Smoking an e-meter with an RF transmission is pretty lulzy but I could never condone such behavior. That would be wrong. I would never, ever do it. Nope, not in 45 trillion years.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    Um...... yeah.... what he said.

    The pop when the capacitor smokes the cans and your hand might be a dead giveaway.
  14. Archangel6606 Member

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    what about getting a magnet and taping that to the bottom of the table?

    if the idea of resistance is what drives the meter then it should play havoc for everyone who uses it.

    i think the wire running under the jacket between each hand is probably the safest and most effective if done well. i wouldnt charge it with a set of batteries that could totally break the meter and you could be charged.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    My specialty is digital electronics :) If I had some e-meter specs I could build something that would let you do what ever you wanted with that needle :p
  16. Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    this = win. I'm guessing caked glue on hands = skyrocketing needle?
  17. Archangel6606 Member

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    that might work. but it depends what your aiming to do.

    you could piss of them scilons for like a minute but thats it. it'd be more effective to be able to mess up the Emeter not only for you but for others a well. but only temporarily (like covering the cans with glue or something)

    The e-meter is a stupid toy. However, it is their stupid toy.
  19. Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    and if we show everyone that it's uncool and stupid others won't go play with them. They'll stick to cool toys like GF masks.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    Magnetic fields only affect current when they're in motion. A stationary magnet wouldn't have any effect. Don't waste your rubles on this idea. Oscillating RF transmissions will have an effect, if they're strong enough. But you might permanently damage their relic. As I said before, we wouldn't want to ruin any sacred devices. Although...... a low power transmission might be enough to cause the needle to go haywire..... just sayin'.


    <inner thought>I wonder what would happen if Revolta's cans did a "rock slam" when he was being audited for Jett's bad PR. RPF?? It was simply bad manners for Jett to exteriorize like that. It caused bad PR.
  21. eddieVroom Member

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    That's why I propose hanging the magnet on about an inch of string, so it'll wobble whenever the table gets bumped or whatever. Put it right under the emeter. It may induce just enough random current in the meter's armature coil to confound the crap out of the operator.

    Simple, elegant, requires only elementary sleight-of-hand.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    Are we talking about stress tables or inner sanctum BS or both?

    "My" org sucks and doesn't do stress tables. :(

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    I like the idea with wire connection. You could tap your foot and make the needle move to form · · · — — — · · · · · · — — — · · · · · · — — — · · ·. Guess that would confuse them a bit...
    But the idea lacks merit beyond own amusement - Whatever the meter will say, you will be told that you have a bad result, and need to buy a book. Even if you manage to use em field / radio waves to disrupt the meters for a prolonged effect of time, it won't have an effect on clams trying to meet their targets.
    Other thing to note: Doing this and raising clam suspicion = facefagging.
  24. SwordSworn Member

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    I was looking over what I have the parts to make and I could make a device that would allow you to control the current allowing you to control the needle but I need the specs for an E-meter to see what resistors I need.
    I was also thinking a magnetic oscillator could be placed outside the org to disable all the meter inside while its on. down side to that was I know for sure that breaks a few FCC guidelines. so I suggest no one makes a magnetic oscillator big enough to disrupt an entire org.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    I agree. That wouldn't be good.

    Just as a matter of curiousity, how would the rebar and other metallic structural members of a building affect such a signal? I don't think it would have much effect unless the entire building was made of (or sheathed in) metal.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    Well, if you're looking for a prank with campus-wide range:

    subsonic whistle - Google Search

    but that would be wrong...

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    Are there any local laws against setting up a Gullibility Test table right beside them?
  28. SwordSworn Member

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    I would do this! I always keep my mask in my car :p

    C'mon guys, the Marcabian Princes handed us anharmonic resonance inducers for a reason. We need to put them to good use.

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    how bout just grabbing it and smashing it against a wall or the ground?
  31. Archangel6606 Member

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    we pretty much can just wait until somone actually has the balls to risk it.

    so we have the wire between two hands running under the shirt.
    the glue or paste on the hands to increase resistance.
    magnets in motion under the table.
    and volt guns.

    somone needs to test em!!!!

    Re: How to Disable/Screw up e-meters

    How about a blotto box? Would knock out the entire exchange, with the org :D

    * This post in completely satirical in nature. Any person who decides to build and put into use a blotto box is a complete and total moron.
