 Once all of the triangulating agents are in position, the actual games can begin. Two "friends" of the target might get in a [[tactics:kayfabe|fake fight]] with each other, pressuring the target to take sides and in turn providing pretense for the losing side to attack the target directly. A "mediator" agent might pretend to diffuse the situation, while covertly pushing the target further into the narrative bubble with more red herrings. Once all of the triangulating agents are in position, the actual games can begin.

-This phase is where the agents make an active push to disorient the target. They do this by bouncing the target from agent to agent in the middle, while keeping the target clueless of the agent's true relationship with one another. Agents may also engage in [[tactics:sealioning]] to push the target into a defensive posture, and encourage them reveal more information about their views or personal life that can be exploited for [[tactics:dox|doxxing]], [[tactics:swatting]], and other forms of harassment.+This phase is where the agents make an active push to disorient the target.

 The target at this stage will usually realize something is amiss. However, if the setup was done right and tracks were covered, it can be very hard for them to pinpoint all of the actors involved. As long as at least one agent can maintain their position, they can keep feeding red herrings to the target to prolong the game. The longer the game continues, the more the target will lose their sense of grounding in reality. The target at this stage will usually realize something is amiss.

 The longer that the charade is able to continue, the deeper the agents are able to embed themselves into the target's surroundings. Obvious signs may present themselves at this point //(the aforementioned downward spirals, increased isolation, continual career sabotage, etc)// but be aware that you are now fighting symptoms of a deeper rot. The longer that the charade is able to continue, the deeper the agents are able to embed themselves into the target's surroundings.

-You will have to examine these destructive synchronicities and identify everyone involved, as well as those who were sighted on the sidelines at the time. Once you have that, **//you will need to trace all of them back to their points of origins to weed out the good from the bad, in order to find the connections to other agents still unidentified//**. [[tactics:go-dark|Going dark]] and throwing out red herrings of your own can also be very useful tricks to flush out these agents.+You will have to examine these destructive synchronicities and identify everyone involved, as well as those who were sighted on the sidelines at the time.

   - **The Rescuer:** The Rescuer's line is "Let me help you." A classic enabler, the Rescuer feels guilty if he or she does not go to the rescue, and ultimately becomes angry (and becomes a Persecutor) as his or her help fails to achieve change. Yet the Rescuer's rescuing has negative effects: it keeps the Victim dependent and doesn't allow the Victim permission to fail and experience the consequences of his or her choices. The rewards derived from this rescue role are that the focus is taken away from the Rescuer, who can also feel good for having tried, and justified in his or her negative feelings (to the other actor/s) upon failing. When one focuses one's energy on another, it enables one to ignore one's own own anxiety and troubles. This rescue role is also pivotal because one's actual primary interest is really an avoidance of one's own problems disguised as concern for the Victim's needs.   - **The Rescuer:** The Rescuer's line is "Let me help you."

   - **The Persecutor:** The Persecutor insists, "It's all your fault." The Persecutor is controlling, blaming, critical, oppressive, angry, authoritarian, rigid and superior. But if blamed in turn, the Persecutor may become defensive and may switch roles to become a Victim if attacked forcefully by the Rescuer and/or Victim, in which case the Victim may also switch roles to become a Persecutor.   - **The Persecutor:** The Persecutor insists, "It's all your fault."
