I'm sorry this is your first experience, I might recommend testing out another ARG. Maybe you should sign up for BoL/SiD and wait for that one to start, that would be a good one that will not implode.
i started what is this game this week, just getting to the join my legacy myspace stage BUT now i have to sign up for myspace. where do i find BoL/SiD?
^^What he said.
For What Is This Game a lot of stuff happens on MySpace. Many people started a strictly ARG account for this. Let me know if you have any questions or need help catching up!
Thanks faeryqueen....I totally need help catching up, it looks like I'm WAY behind. I'll shoot u a PM or hit u up on myspace....

see i still haven't missed much. Feel free to TROUT me on this, it's kind of a stretch...but i noticed that the song lyrics in both email have question ( ?) marks, instead of apostrophe marks ( ' ).
trying to find some clue in the song, i searched many, many lyric databases.
there appears to be only one w/a script error that throws in question (?) marks instead of apostrophe marks, so i assume this is where cstrife311 copied the lyrics from:
this is also the only lyric database [that i seem to find, at least] that gives the date Jeff Buckley performed this song: Dec. 31, 1995.
If you google that date, the number one hit is about high energy X-radiation.
Perhaps there is some significance to that, or maybe cstrife311 just happened to copy the lyrics from this source and didn't noticed the ? marks.
I know I'm a newbie, but I'm guessing that using a brute-force to crack the /craig password is unethical, and I give up on trying anything else...

The last time you went out for a beer, you figured out the wax stamp puzzle on the Tanqueray bottle. Bottoms up toasty.

Heading out for a beer - maybe the lyrics will mean something more after that.

Nextday talked to Cstrife earlier and he put the same lyrics at the end of his "chat"

Last bit are lyrics to a song called 'Alive' preformed by Drugstore and later Jeff Buckley.
Toasty had the lyrics figured out.

Well, judging by the way this game's been going, I'd say we've gotta wait another 2 weeks now that you've made contact. Then, we'll get another update telling us to wait.
Alright, I'm done with my little pity party. way to go Jacks. Recognize any of that lyric stuff? I don't.

Cstrife311 (12:41:41 AM): I can't explain it.
tjacks4tw (12:41:57 AM): that's understandable.....sounds like it would be difficult to
Cstrife311 (12:42:51 AM): I must go now jacks. I am glad you were on....I was hoping you didn't give up.
Cstrife311 (12:43:04 AM): Have a good weekend.
Cstrife311 (12:43:05 AM): I
I feel the time is coming
I
I walk into your eyes
Oh, I don�t care if the clock is turning
Cause I�m going to the other side
You either die
Or you keep on burning alive
And I am burning
I
I walked a long long distance
I
I�m feeling sore inside
Oh, I don�t care if the sky is falling
Cause I�ll never get to see the light
You either die
Or you keep on burning alive
And I am burning
And I am burning
tjacks4tw (12:43:05 AM): i'm still with you, friend
Cstrife311 (12:43:22 AM): hopefully you understand what I am saying
Cstrife311 (12:43:29 AM): night
tjacks4tw (12:43:32 AM): later
I guess there's some relevance to that song.
