When I read what the challenge was going to be, this idea popped in my head almost immediately. Created some "official" DPC site council name tags and set up the shot in our conference room with the assistance of some of my co-workers (Mike, Kelly, Zia, and Roy).
With all the talk in threads about the "secret group" or "the click" or "SC going to the Double Rainbow Ice Cream house to share ice cream and talk about members", I figured this would be a great image to convey that "idea". I just hope the image conveys a sense of conspiracy and everyone gets it.
I'm probably not the only one who's thought about this but I just hope the rest would get a kick out of this. Just hoping to place in the top 70% for this challenge.

The biggest problem with this (and why I couldn't vote on it or leave a comment originally), is that you have portrayed the SC as humans. And, well, it just ain't so. :)
I really did want to comment on this one before the challenge ran out, but ran out of time (imagine that)
The real conspiracy here loooks like the guy sitting at the laptop at the end of the table. Maybe thats the point? I'm a little bit confused, but its not a bad shot.
Creative concept, excellent composition & models. I do however have trouble with your, IMHO, overuse of blur. I think it doesn't add anything to an otherwise excellent image. Good work.
I really like the expression of the guy in the background, the man in the forground hushing. The only thing I don't care for is the plant that seems to be "growing" out of the woman's head. Other than that - great office shot!
