On December 15th, 2017, Alice & Smith released the Whitechapel DLC for The Black Watchmen, a PARG (Permanent Alternate Reality Game). 4 days after the release, a live event began, known as Operation TidalVortex.
The mission began as the situation room previewed a Dagaz rune, and the event was officially classified as live.

Briefing
On December 19th, 2017, at approximately 1:54AM UTC, a briefing email was sent out to all Black Watchmen agents. This email contained a classified document from site 7361, which proves that Mr. Whitechapel is behind the mysterious occurrences in New England. The email also contained the following instructions:
- Take your cell phone and go to map.blackwatchmen.com
- Record yourself reading the following incantation:
A custodia matutina usque ad noctem
- The Situation Room will broadcast a symbol in real-time, draw it on your cellphone to submit your voice recording.
On December 20th, at approximately 1:50AM UTC this intercepted broadcast was found in the in-game situation room.
After agents received the briefing, the Black Watchmen Map along with the in game map began to fill up with symbols indicating an agent in that area had recorded and submitted their chant. Soon after these symbols appeared, audio cues of agents chanting began to play, each audio cue being repeated after ending.At approximately 1AM UTC on December 21st, the in-game situation room updated to show what looks like a nebula on one of the screens. When clicked on, it opens up this link to Signal Intercept Attempt #2 uploaded by Dispatch. As of now, it hasn't been solved yet. Even though this is a different signal to the first one, both seem to be connected.
As of now, this is all that is known. This page will continue to be updated as more of the event plays out.
