windup discovered it - i just asked a nagging question or two about it

[Tempestdevil]

Eh, Ron was fishy from the start. When he came into the IRC he was acting like, in general, a clueless schmuck, which didn't quite fit in with his whole "freelance website designer" thing. I think he planned to string his little game out a bit longer, but I backed him into a corner with questions.

Also, wulf, I'm going to PM you something that was discussed in IRC earlier. windup and grady discovered it, but I don't know if we're meant to make it public yet. It's about your package, if you know what I mean.

I checked this thread just in case, presuming not much had happened.

It's weird how everything up to the last few sentences in the chat, points to the idea that the game is over.
I don't know. Like a lot of people. But I think that Ron D. is IG too.
If this is the start of chapter 2, I'm very curious where it may lead us.

Quote:

I am a freelance web designer and tech-dude and I spent a year or so contracting for a writer named Brian Bricker to keep up his website.

If Ron is a web designer, he had a pretty easy job with Brickers site. It looks really simple and from the 90's. That site tells me "outdated" and "amateurism". Not "a web designer that spends a year on that site".

Why did he still e-mail with an IG e-mail address, even if the game should be over?

If Ron only got the book from Brian, then he should consider a career as a writer himself. I believe the blogs and character interaction are not written by someone that never does that.
How do other people feel about that? Are there any obvious differences in writing style? Or is it all just as well written as the Manuscript?

Interest meter suddenly got filled up. What a coincidence.

Agreed. After reading the transcript - wow - it kinda throws everything into another mess. But. Like temptest mentioned - being the "smart cookie" he is - the game is back on.

I seriously doubt anything illegal is going on here, but what I can say for sure, is that whomever is running this, has truly re-invented ARG's. We've all been dizzy since day one, mostly because of the meta, backstory, and even Kade. But if we look at the direct interactions with the characters - it's even more puzzling. The package I received wasn't from them? Eric being fired? The students across the nation. These guys have been trying to convince us from the beginning that TINAG, but it is, but then it's not.

Come Hell or high water, I'm sticking this one out. I hate to admit it, but I've all but abandoned the other ARG's I was playing/lurking - because this one requires my full attention.

Well done.

[Tempestdevil]

Allow me to try and clear something up, because I don't want to see anyone leave the game now that it's hopefully going to be getting somewhere. Pretty much everything about the email syn got was fabricated, as far as we can tell. "Ron" pretty much confirmed that near the end of the chat.

He says the game is on again when Bricker gets the ticket, which can only mean 2 things. Either Bricker is our PM, or Bricker has hired our PM. Either way, he is involved in this, otherwise him receiving the ticket would spell the end of our game, not the next step. Regardless of his lack of background with fiction writing, Bricker is an author all the same, and it stands to reason that if he didn't allow his writing to be used, he'd be on the horn with a lawyer the second he found out it was being used. Couple that with the fact that his site has been a breeding ground for most of our clues, seems to point that he is certainly a part of this game. Granted, the act of "disgruntled Ron" had access to Bricker's site, but that was months ago. If Bricker terminated their contract out of anger from his book being read, it also stands to reason he would change the password used to access his site and revoke Ron's access.

Long story short, we discussed this a bit in IRC, I'm of the firm belief this whole thing was to try and snap interest back into the game. Nothing illegal is going on, although some uF rules have certainly been broken, but I don't think it's nearly as bad as the email tried to have us believe.

I didn't come to get yelled at. 21:32:27 <Ron> ok? 21:32:43 <TTHSK> I don't think anyone wants to activate the cruise control 21:32:47 <Schwinn> Well you would have to expect us to be a little upset too 21:32:51 <TTHSK> But there will be questions. 21:33:21 <Ron> I figured you'd be upset 21:33:23 <windupangel> (a bunch of people are just disappointed it ends so fast like this) 21:33:28 <Ron> I feel terrible. 21:33:33 <Ron> I get it. 21:33:45 <Schwinn> So what really happened 21:33:48 <Ron> It seemed that everyone was getting bored with it. 21:33:58 <Addlepated> You know what? I thought it was a really innovative launch. 21:33:59 <TTHSK> I think it's awesome, myself, but I'm rather crazy. 21:33:59 <Ron> What do you mean? 21:34:22 <Schwinn> we werent getting bored we were looking of more puzzles 21:34:31 <Ron> It kind of came together, you know? And that's why I continued with it. 21:34:51 <Schwinn> More frustrated then bored 21:34:53 <TTHSK> Hmm 21:35:02 <TTHSK> Were the word .TMP files deliberate? 21:35:13 <Ron> I thought that the puzzles needed a reason. I didn't want puzzles for the sake of puzzles. 21:35:17 <Ron> Yes. 21:35:29 <TTHSK> The photothumb thing? 21:35:42 <Schwinn> SO is the reall Brian Bricker going to receive a ticket in the mail? 21:35:50 <Ron> Unfortunately yes. 21:35:57 <Ron> He actually is real. 21:36:15 <Schwinn> And he doesn;t know any of this happened 21:36:17 <Ron> the photothumb was an oversite. 21:36:23 <Ron> No. 21:36:32 <Ron> I don't know what I'm going to do. 21:36:50 <Schwinn> I would call him and apologize ASAP 21:37:08 <TTHSK> The only way to save your ass would be getting rid of the unfiction thread and other references strewn about, and any caches available online 21:37:12 <TTHSK> aaand that's unlikely 21:37:14 <Schwinn> cause he is probably going to find out and not be to happy 21:37:15 <Ron> I don't have his current number. And I'm not sure I want to show up at his door. 21:37:35 <Ron> "Hi man, I just kind of screwed your book!" 21:38:07 <Ron> Please don't feel that I wasted your time. That's been my big fear with you guys. 21:38:18 <Addlepated> or you just provided an ARG campaign for it for $100 21:38:32 <Schwinn> Hopfully he will see that a bunch of us enjoyed his book and your ARG 21:38:35 <TTHSK> It was fun 21:38:57 <Schwinn> I truly enjoyed it by the way 21:39:20 <Schwinn> SHit so you were "ERIC" too 21:39:31 <Ron> Thanks. I'm glad that you liked it too. 21:39:38 <Ron> Sadly. 21:39:40 <Schwinn> I felt bad for getting him fired 21:39:50 * Schwinn slaps Ron around a bit with a large trout 21:39:53 <Ron> I tried to point it away from you, 21:40:16 <TTHSK> Can you tell us what would have happened if it had reached the end? 21:40:18 <Ron> You guys figured out that I needed to differentiate between Brickers. 21:40:33 <TTHSK> Without revealing more of Bricker's story, I guess 21:40:37 <Schwinn> So was the whole thing just you? 21:40:52 <Ron> Honestly? I'm not totally sure. There were a couple of angles to go. 21:41:29 <Ron> I don't actually have much more of Bricker's story. 21:41:50 <Ron> There are some note files -- that's where I got the Oracle and Rage meeting stuff. 21:41:55 <Ron> No real conclusion though. 21:42:06 <Ron> And I still don't know who the One was. 21:42:29 <Ron> Yes. All me. 21:42:47 <Schwinn> Damn did you ever get to sleep 21:42:53 <Ron> No. 21:43:06 <Schwinn> I will say this you did do a very good job 21:43:14 <Addlepated> were you theblindgod also? 21:43:19 <Ron> No. 21:43:25 <TTHSK> DaleoftheBay? 21:43:33 <Ron> There were a lot of one-off posters that I wasn't. 21:43:35 <Ron> No. 21:43:44 <Addlepated> and not the Kade person 21:43:45 <Ron> Other than the first post I tried to abide by the rules. 21:43:58 <Ron> Kade totally blindsided everything. 21:44:08 <TTHSK> Kade's crazy 21:44:09 <Ron> I had never even heard of all of that stuff before. 21:44:11 <Schwinn> Ok What about this whole Kade/ Dreams end Cluster F 21:44:14 <windupangel> so you actually put out the flyer - and Daleofthebay found it? 21:44:24 <Schwinn> Never mind 21:44:26 <TTHSK> The DaleOfTheBay was the edited flyer, aaand it matched the photothumb image size 21:44:38 <TTHSK> aaaand filename 21:44:49 <windupangel> ah 21:44:57 <Ron> I actually did create and put out the altered flyers. 21:45:01 <TTHSK> from memory, anyway 21:45:06 <Ron> All in Union Square. 21:46:34 <Schwinn> If it werent for the Kade/DE stuff it would have been more enjoyeble, not that I didn't enjoy what we had been through so far 21:47:33 <Schwinn> that really messed up alot of people and caused a lot of confusion 21:47:43 <Ron> It confused me! 21:47:47 <TTHSK> How'd you end up with Bricker's stuff? You were friends to an extent? (sorry to pry, but it kind of only half makes sense right now) 21:47:55 <windupangel> and the book sent to wulf? 21:48:14 <Ron> I was trying to make King more real. 21:48:30 <Ron> And I seriously have two boxes of Brian's stuff. 21:48:34 <windupangel> cool prop 21:48:47 <Ron> When he moved back from Oklahoma he needed some storage space. 21:49:00 <Schwinn> I loved the watership down references 21:49:02 <TTHSK> The ring was probably the kicker for me 21:49:09 <windupangel> is the ticket real, or was that a prop you made? 21:49:09 <Ron> I actually have his mom's ashes. Couldn't work those into the story though. 21:49:20 <Ron> Was real. 21:49:20 <TTHSK> O_o 21:49:23 <Schwinn> ewww 21:49:44 <Ron> Would've really been in bad taste -- especially considering the current situation. 21:50:06 <Schwinn> OK is diana madden really dead? 21:50:08 <Ron> I like watership down, too. I wanted to use that more, 21:50:09 *** tempestdevil (TempestSPLATchat-solu-DCB7F298.fai.dsl.dynamic.acsalaska.net) has joined the channel 21:50:14 <windupangel> obviously 21:50:22 <Schwinn> Hiya Tempest 21:50:27 <windupangel> hi TD 21:50:44 <Schwinn> Getting a full house tonight 21:50:52 <TTHSK> 'tis not surprising 21:51:05 <Addlepated> Ron, can you give us any assurance that you're not really Brian Bricker and this was to promote your own book? 21:51:07 <Ron> Yes. She's definitely dead. 21:51:34 <TTHSK> Hmm 21:51:52 <Schwinn> Oh so that definatly will not sit well with the real BB 21:51:53 <TTHSK> Was the novel all originally in one file? 21:51:54 <Ron> You have what I have of the book. And if I was promoting a half-written, unpublished book...I'd be kind of dumb, 21:52:22 <Ron> the book was in numerous files. Some rewrites...some chapters. 21:52:43 <Addlepated> True, unless the book is actually finished 21:53:11 <windupangel> I think Addlepated is asking how we are supposed to trust you... 21:53:11 <Ron> I have no way to assure you. I think it will be pretty obvious when he gets that ticket though. 21:53:18 <Schwinn> Damn I was hoping to read the whole thing or at least print out the whole thing and bind it with Classi's cover 21:53:19 <windupangel> like "boy who cried wolf" thing 21:53:24 <Ron> I don't expect anyone to trust me. 21:53:27 <Ron> Honestly. 21:53:29 <TTHSK> Me too, schwinn 21:53:52 <Addlepated> I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but you have to admit there were a lot of meta swerves that make just about anything at this point hard to take at face value 21:54:17 <Ron> I hear you. A lot of synchronicity as it were. 21:54:21 <Ron> Like this... 21:54:38 <Schwinn> maybe I'll print the thread and the chat logs too and make this whole story 21:54:46 <Addlepated> I lurked through the entirety of the game, at first because I liked the launch concept but then later because of Kade implicating Dave Szulborski 21:54:56 <Ron> I had set the date at 09/09/09 and was digging through Brian's stuff and saw that the letter from Carter was dated Sept. 9 21:54:56 <TTHSK> Too much has been removed for the game (or at least the same game) to still be on; and there's probably not much point in lying. 21:55:03 <Ron> it was perfect...but not planned. 21:56:00 <Ron> Yeah, I don't know where Kade got anything. I had never even heard of Matheny either. 21:56:37 <Addlepated> it's always funny what synchronicity pops up with you're running a game 21:56:49 <TTHSK> argh I hate that word 21:56:54 <Ron> I had never run one. 21:56:56 <Addlepated> game? 21:57:05 <TTHSK> no, synchronicity 21:57:08 <TTHSK> coincidence is a lot nicer 21:57:13 <tempestdevil> good song. 21:57:15 <tempestdevil> >_> 21:57:45 <TTHSK> also my hand is a little twitchy on the enter key sometimes, <_< 21:58:00 <Schwinn> Were you getting any help while doing this 21:58:06 <Ron> No. 21:58:13 <Ron> Just from those trying to derail you guys. 21:58:17 <Schwinn> <_< 21:58:37 <TTHSK> Speaking of which, what sort of actual gamejacking/nonsense went on? Any? 21:58:38 <Schwinn> Well they derailed us quite well several times 21:58:44 <windupangel> so the "ARG students from California to New Jersey..." 21:58:52 <windupangel> ? 21:58:58 <tempestdevil> what if you're the gamejacker though? 21:59:10 <Ron> I just felt really bad when people wanted to quit. 21:59:25 <Ron> If I was the gamejacker how would I have shut everything down? 21:59:36 <TTHSK> By being a really good hacker, basically 21:59:46 <tempestdevil> your job is to tend to websites. 21:59:57 <windupangel> (Ron made everybody paranoid) 22:00:00 <Ron> But, what would be the benefit of what I'm doing now? 22:00:01 <tempestdevil> if you know the right things to do it's almost painfully easy to break into accounts on sites like blogspot. 22:00:21 <tempestdevil> especially if Bricker is the PM 22:00:23 <tempestdevil> and you're the gamejack. 22:00:24 <TTHSK> Mess with our heads, some people like to do that sort of thing 22:00:26 <tempestdevil> you had access to his PC 22:00:27 <tempestdevil> and his site 22:00:30 <tempestdevil> you could easily have his passwords. 22:00:34 <TTHSK> Anyway, 22:00:36 <Schwinn> brb 22:00:40 <Ron> wow. 22:00:46 <Munki> What the fuck am I missing! 22:00:56 <TTHSK> what were the endings you were thinking up? 22:00:57 <Munki> We get a rush and ron is here dammit! 22:01:07 <Ron> I never meant to instill any paranoia. 22:01:10 <TTHSK> 'tis how the world works 22:01:18 <tempestdevil> with all the meta you threw at us, you should have forseen this. 22:01:25 <TTHSK> The heaps of meta and themes of the game did it, I think 22:01:34 <Ron> I get it. 22:01:38 <tempestdevil> the entire game just seems a bit too well thought out to be an on-the-spot by a shafted webmaster. 22:01:43 <TTHSK> also the close adherence to TINAG 22:01:58 <TTHSK> close and convoluted 22:02:03 <Ron> Okay, what exactly does TINAG mean (besides the obvious). 22:02:16 <TTHSK> not admitting it's a game, ever? 22:02:22 <TTHSK> well 22:02:22 <TTHSK> until it's over 22:02:22 <TTHSK> and not from inside the game 22:02:31 <Addlepated> TINAG = the characters never admit they're characters 22:02:35 <TTHSK> as far as I can tell, anyway 22:02:35 <tempestdevil> if it were anyone else supposedly running the game and then you came out and said it was you all along, it might be a bit more believable.. but someone who previously had complete access to anything Bricker did, comes across as somewhat of a gamejack. 22:02:44 <Schwinn> Munki Munki Munki Munki Munki Munki Munki Munki I missed you 22:02:45 <TTHSK> also, not knowing who is running it helps 22:02:55 <Ron> I get it. 22:03:15 <tempestdevil> like, if you were Larry the Grocery Clerk from Virginia, we'd be like "oh, makes sense, if he took everything down he must be running it" 22:03:15 <Ron> So to what purpose would I jack this game? 22:03:25 <tempestdevil> to what purpose would you create it? 22:03:38 <Ron> It was a challenge. 22:03:41 <windupangel> @everybody - we'll know for sure when BB gets the ticket in the mail 22:03:59 <tempestdevil> unless this is BB we're talking to right now 22:04:01 <tempestdevil> think about it. 22:04:06 <TTHSK> Yar, I want to know about the endings, not about whether Ron's a gamejack 22:04:11 <tempestdevil> we essentially gave up. we were told contacting the writer was our last option, and we did it. 22:04:22 * TTHSK doesn't care; also, I wanted to force a lose condition 22:04:30 <tempestdevil> that's my point though. 22:04:40 <tempestdevil> we forced a losing condition, it would only make sense for the game to pack up as though it were done. 22:04:47 <Ron> So you all weren't in agreement on that? 22:04:51 <TTHSK> I meant the "Lenny wins" condition 22:04:52 <Addlepated> But the way it was put across, contacting the writer sounded more like an imperative, not a caution 22:05:08 <tempestdevil> i dunno 22:05:08 <TTHSK> heck, I'm on IRC from au, which means most people's early morning 22:05:12 <tempestdevil> we were told contacting the writer would completely change the game. 22:05:12 <TTHSK> so, I don't babble in most discussions 22:05:14 <tempestdevil> which, so far, it has. 22:05:16 <Addlepated> to me it sounded like it would open the door on a new, exciting chapter 22:05:20 <Addlepated> right 22:05:29 <tempestdevil> and we might just be in the eye of the storm. 22:05:36 <Ron> wow. 22:05:39 <tempestdevil> that's the problem, we've been fed so much meta it's kind of hard to believe this. 22:05:58 <Ron> The boy who cried wolf. I get it now. 22:06:01 <Addlepated> Ron, if you haven't, you might look into reading some of Jane McGonigal's stuff on game boundaries 22:06:05 <windupangel> basically, it was wulf, classical, and me - and we decided that 1) classical had promised to return the ticket and she wanted to keep that promise 22:06:26 <windupangel> &2) we would have to contact the writer eventually ("IG") anyway 22:06:31 <windupangel> so just get it over with 22:06:32 <tempestdevil> i didn't care what we did either way, i was losing interest in the circles we were running 22:06:42 <Ron> exactly! 22:06:49 <tempestdevil> but to me, it seemed like we were told contacting the writer was our last ditch effort, and it would change the game completely 22:06:54 <tempestdevil> and we did, and it has. 22:07:04 <Ron> interesting. 22:07:07 <windupangel> uh, yeah 22:07:27 <Ron> More syn...uh...coincidence perhaps? 22:07:59 <TTHSK> Did you just get the money today? 22:08:10 <Ron> A couple of days ago. 22:08:17 <TTHSK> That's really nasty timing 22:08:17 <Addlepated> http://avantgame.com/writings.htm - check out A Real Little Game and the section about suspension of disbelief 22:08:42 <Addlepated> it's pretty coincidental timing, considering the ticket is just set to arrive, though - see our dilemma? 22:08:58 <Ron> I see. 22:09:09 <Ron> I'm starting to get paranoid. 22:09:12 <Addlepated> lol 22:09:22 <tempestdevil> addle sees where i'm coming from. 22:09:34 <tempestdevil> After all this supposed in game gamejacking and stuff, it's very hard to take this at face value. 22:10:06 <TTHSK> I'm probably more crazy for not being paranoid, but still 22:10:18 <Addlepated> all the players have suspended disbelief for so long, we are not sure how to reinstitute belief 22:10:30 <Addlepated> or where to apply it 22:10:32 <TTHSK> Did anything go really awry while you were running it? 22:10:57 <Ron> It all did. I was always only one step ahead. 22:11:24 <tempestdevil> TTHSK: i assume, if we are to believe Ron's story, that the entire Kade gamejack was OOG 22:11:46 <TTHSK> apart from kade, I meant 22:11:48 <Ron> Right. I can gaurantee that conspiracy theories are not my thing. 22:11:48 <tempestdevil> more and more i'm starting to think anyway, even if we don't believe him, that it was OOG. we haven't seen nor heard from Kade since then about the game. 22:12:04 <Ron> He even threatened to ruin this game. 22:12:15 <windupangel> he did? 22:12:19 <Ron> So I tried to keep everyone way away from his direction. 22:12:28 <Ron> One of his DreamsEnd posts. 22:12:37 <tempestdevil> he did so to us directly too, but in his roundabout mindfuck way of speaking. 22:12:46 <windupangel> so, what exactly prompted you to pull the plug tonight? 22:12:48 <tempestdevil> he basically told us to get out of the game now because he was trying to bring it down 22:13:21 <tempestdevil> it's mostly this game in particular. If a plug pull like this had happened on any other game, it would be pretty much accepted right away 22:13:28 <tempestdevil> but this game has been skirting the line between reality and game so much.. 22:13:36 <tempestdevil> something like this doesn't really seem out of bounds for it 22:14:01 <tempestdevil> we've already had one contact, "Eric", that was acting OOG when he was really IG, if what you say is true. 22:14:14 <tempestdevil> since Eric told us he was fired from his job for giving us too much info, when if it's just you running the game, I doubt he had a job. 22:14:32 <Ron> You guys are too good. 22:14:38 <tempestdevil> this is where disbelief is spawning from 22:14:47 <tempestdevil> too much OOG-seeming IG stuff has already happened 22:15:03 <tempestdevil> you've trained us too well over this last month, now it's hard to believe. 22:15:18 <Ron> That's not a bad thing actually. 22:15:52 <Ron> Skepticism is good. 22:16:01 <Ron> Paranoia...not so much. 22:16:18 <Schwinn> Windup askes a very good question, What made you pull the plug tonight? 22:16:32 <Ron> Because you contacted the writer. 22:16:41 <Ron> And that changes everything. 22:16:41 <windupangel> that's it? 22:16:53 <tempestdevil> that's the point i was trying to make. 22:17:00 <Ron> That's it??? 22:17:07 <tempestdevil> we contacted the writer, everything changed. Exactly as we were told would happen, IG. 22:17:20 <Ron> I love you guys. 22:17:39 <tempestdevil> i'm not afraid to admit that i'm potentially way off base 22:17:54 <tempestdevil> but that is my belief right now, that we're just being fed more meta and led down another winding tunnel in the rabbit hole. 22:17:57 <Schwinn> If you dint me asking how old are you Ron? 22:18:09 <Schwinn> don't^* 22:18:10 <Ron> 41. 22:18:23 <tempestdevil> however, i'll cave, because i do want some answers too. If you were running this whole thing and it's now over, can I ask why all the Donnie Darko and Watership Down references? any particular reason? 22:18:24 <Ron> And tempest, you are one smart cookie. 22:18:35 <Schwinn> Hey another older timer like me 22:18:39 <tempestdevil> Are you saying I'm right, or just praising me? ;P 22:18:54 <Ron> Both. 22:19:09 <tempestdevil> oooh 22:19:18 <Ron> We start again when Bricker gets the ticket. Enjoy your weekend. 22:19:22 *** Ron has quit IRC (Quit: http://www.chat-solutions.org) Color Legend: Ron, bold blue

Addlepated is colorizing us up an IRC log and posting it, but I'll make a little placeholder just so you guys who aren't in IRC are aware.

Game is still on, Ron was not who he led us to believe. Worry not.

I mean the hole thing started out as an act of revenge. What if BB decides to sue you?

I am beating myself up so much more than you or Brian ever could. Believe me. And I SWEAR that I have deleted all personal info submitted. As stupid as it sounds now, I actually got to a point where I was trying to run a real game. I have no beef with anyone who was playing and all names, addresses and phone numbers were deleted this afternoon. I was only collecting them for the next part of the game. I have no reason to have or use that info now. And if he sues me, I'm the one who is liable for everything. I'm sorry.

I have since sent him a request to come to the chat room and so far no reply

[windup angel]

it was BCC'd to everybody

[syntacticAtrocity]

The email was from Maury Kelvin and it was BCC'd to someone.

@Ron D - well, I hoped you've learned something from all of this but seriously, you are full of shit, no offense intended, i mean that in a playful way - thanks for the jumpdrive BTW

everybody - just ignore him - let's keep playing - i think we're getting somewhere

[3v1L Schwinn]

OH WHAT THE @!#$^@!!!!!

Ok so this was somebody trying to get revenge on someone else and I GAVE HIM MY REAL INFO?!? Some one has some splaining to do!
