well, our crack team in the IRC chat (mostly schwinn and burrito) figured out what we're almost certain is the correct response to JDM's little riddle. syntactic stepped out right before we figured it out, so I figured I would update JDM on our progress

disclaimer: I don't think anything about the holocaust was nice, interesting wouldn't fit though because twitter has lame character limits. please don't hate me, i'm not an anti-semite.

New tweet from JDM literally about a minute ago:

Hmm...didn't think I could stump the folded brood so easily. It's good to be home.

Also, Port King's blog has a "new" picture up.. It's the Empress card, once again. The URLs are different though, so it is a different file. Time to figure out what's different, I suppose!

Woah, two hours? Shocked

I'd be exhausted too. Whatever you can do to help out the catcher-uppers will be greatly appreciated, but don't worry about it if you don't have time, it's no big deal. Smile

Btw, welcome to unFiction! Very Happy

FYI: if y'all remember, Kade linked me to timetunnler's flounce before via email, since he seemed convinced it had something to do with something. I'm not sure what to make of it--the character TT might just be based off the poster, but nothing more.

But yeah, I am also in agreement that we're kinda stuck waiting right now. The flyer is still bugging me (who posted it? who defaced it? what did JDM see that made him so angry in it?) buuuuut since I can't make heads or tails of it with what we have right now, I assume we'll find out soon enough.

re: JDM's tweet
... so we didn't find the right place?

that being said, there is discussion on erecting a Wiki.

also, there is a new twitter post from JDM:

Though the reflecting pool is impressive, as is the Survivor Tree, you need someone 35,000x more evil that T! (Just couldn't help myself)

Hi all. I've been following along as you guys discover things. It sounds like a great game. Hopefully I'll have some time soon to jump in, but in the meantime, I hope you don't mind if I ask a couple of favors... Very Happy

For someone like me who is extremely "patient impaired", it would be great if you could do a little recap of your IM sessions with the ingame characters. And for those who like to read every word of the IM or IRC transcripts, this handy dandy tool will highlight and colorize the text differently for each person.

syntacticAtrocity · Posted: Tue Apr 14, 2009 10:17 am

That is my presumption - some don't agree and are investigating the META further.

Investigating the IM with JDM and some other suble hints I have come to the conclusion that our interaction of the game is strictly character driven right now.

Cripes - sign out for a few hours, and get totally behind again. I'm back more or less, still in TN, but will be able to check in periodically. I've also let the wife know, that if I get any strange mail to call me immediately.

So, if I've read everything correctly, we're just in a holding pattern at the moment?

From Grady:

BTW - someone called timetunneler, who others call TT, made a flamboyant exit from RigInt forum on saturday. I don't want to stir up any sidetrack shit, as it is probably way way OOG, but you might want to check it out. The thread's called THE FINAL SECRET OF THE "ILLUMINATI"?

Also, Lenny Bruce, of Live at the Curran Theater Fame, was married to a stripper named Honey Harlow - FWIW - her birth name was Harriett Jolliff - Harriett = Ari - it's a stretch - just throwing it out there (JJ likes repetitions - notice all the repeats in Harriett Jolliff - also initials HH - something for an out of the way corner of the data dump - don't loose sleep over it)

I've been listening to Live at the Curran Theater at work - I'll let you know if anything rings a bell

BTW - there were NONE of those flyers around the Curran or Union Square when I was there the other day - but hey, San Francisco is "One Clean City" - anyways, keep that in mind if DaleoftheBay posts again

Latest twit from JDM. Boys and girls, we have ourselves a puzzle.

Latest floating 'foot' turns out to be a hoax

syntacticAtrocity · Posted: Mon Apr 13, 2009 8:15 pm

Ok, JDM sent me a direct tweet telling me to be careful or else you guys will think I'm odd. Obviously our plan to cultivate a forbidden love with TT is not going to work.

Rofl.

Burrito · Posted: Mon Apr 13, 2009 7:51 pm

I think the Ari lead needs to be pursued. If we know who JDM cares about, we can figure out how to find him.

I've been searching for crimes that have taken place at the Curran, and dancers and strippers named Ari, with no luck on either end.
