If we're talking about getting the word out, you can get 250 free business card sized... errr... cards for free (maybe a few bucks for postage) at vista print, I did this for Aware2 before it got cancelled Confused

I dumped handfuls of cards at my local starbucks, shopping malls, book stores, every where really. I don't have time to do it now, but we could all try:


(p.s. no, I'm not on commission Smile )

Are we still making flyers? I made a few bases that people could use to write whatever they wanted on it, as well as my own writing, I was thinking of doing some website buttons or something too.
What do you think?

I talked with her this afternoon and brought up the 'protect her'. Sharon's not worried. She and Des have discussed it and feel like it refers to someone 'back home'.

She seems to be in a good mood Smile

That sounds a bit ominous, given that she is specifically mentioned in the video, should we suggest Gracesmom (Sharon) that she may be in danger (and Nico), perhaps that is why he specifically asked to meet Gracesmom to pass on further information?

Or not, don't want to spook her, more than she already is?

I was also wondering why he used iniscool as a name to post his photos.

I think that anyone who logs off right away after you IM them is a real person and not a character in the game. Matching AIM names with characters doesn't seem too straightforward in this game. Smile

I hope we find out some more on Monday.

Translation

Sorry I jumped the gun all. But here is the translation of A Message For Nico:

- Look, I've used every contact I could. You sent Andreas on a wildgoose chase... Very funny... Now I'm left holding the bag/ in a no- way situation/ in a pickle too. Just make your point clear. At a certain moment the company weakened/ yielded its position drastically. We are at your side. We claim that a wise move. But your support will make a big difference. Espesially if you are there to protect her.The door is closing, Thomas. Get inside or you'll get stuck on the outside... in the cold... for a very long time.


Andreas? ANDREAS! Who is Andrea? And why does she refer to the listener as Thomas? And: "especially if you are there to protect her." Protect Grace? and who protects her, Nico or Thomas? Lot's to mull over, but there's the info.

Iwondered if he had an amateur interest in astronomy. Perhaps that is why he called them eclipse 07?

so has anyone asked why iniscool's photobucket pictures are all named eclipse07?


There is an aim user called Eclipse07, but I've gotten no reponse, and they immediately logged off when I attempted to chat to them?

May be OOG?


yeah sadly when i tried to search more about it it's a very common name due to the eclipse and what not. it'd be pretty hard to figure out what's oog and what's not.

I too talked to Sharon. nothing worth mentioning just casual talk. baseball and what not came up. Talked about Nico for a little while. she mentioned that he had discarded his cell phone, credit cards, etc. (anything that could be traced) So i suggested that since he ditched that stuff he should pick somewhere and lay low.

Not sure if its important or not but...

"Captainz2005: yeah. i wonder how hes getting around without those things
gracesmominnh: he said there are still payphones around, and he used public internet when he could find it
gracesmominnh: his friend in Maine gave him some money"

So apparently he has a contact in Maine. don't know if its of any importance but thought id mention it in case.

I had conversations with both Sharon and Gala. There wasn't a whole lot worth repeating, but the conversations were very nice. I'm very impressed with their 'realness'. I mentioned to both the concept of the community being able to hide Nico or arrange a false trail and both seemed interested in that as a possibility. I told Gala all she had to do was let me know.

So since worldwithoutoil.org says "This Is A Game," let's all agree here that it's Out Of Game?


Personally, I think it's firmly in-game. It has little blips of meta (eg. bottom of 'world without oil' link), but a lot of the info has been IG and important (eg. Nico chat). On top of that, the little button in the upper-right hand corner says, "made by dessum9," which would be very odd to say if it was meta or OOG. Finally, on the 'teach' page, it says that it was compiled by Gala (and someone else, can't remember who right now). So long story short, you don't need to worry about referencing the WWO page (in my opinion, at least).

Had a chat with Gracesmom. It was very comfortable. I was doing other stuff in the background and felt like we were just having a pleasant conversation, like real people. Whoever is playing her in chat, good job. Smile
