Hrm - now I'm wondering if I should've gone the extra step, and met Bricker in Cali like he'd originally asked/suggested when he and I first started talking about ARGfest.

He asked if I was going to meet him in Santa Rosa, or Portland. At the time, it seemed like a strange question.

Feel free to trout me if I'm stating the obvious, but doesn't it looks like the PM is keeping the ARGfest-O-Con (or at least Portland) IG?

It is an Amtrak train. It is, in fact, the exact same train that I am taking to Portland next week. Same dates, times, and all.

...

... so uh.




At least this text I got while at work today makes sense now:

Er, thanks Rage?

edit;; mails from Bricker, earlier this afternoon, before the picture Arlen posted.

North of the golden Gate Bridge
Portland is North of the Golden Gate Bridge, and so is the Brightman, since it is in in Bodega Bay, no?

Woo, Bricker's still alive, at least!
His reply (and mine) were sent in MAXA Crypt (thx Wulf, as this code makes me want to kick things slightly less :B).

You got followers, man. Rather stupid ones, but also the sorts that make vague enough death threats for me to take seriously. Reason being: dunno if Val mentioned this, but there appears to be something waiting for you in Portland next week. Something important, something these guys don't want you to have. I think we'd both prefer it if you got there in one piece to receive it, y'know?

I don't know what else to say right now other than to be careful and watch your back. And that I wish I'd thought to contact you sooner.

So uh, if 'GGB' stands for 'Golden Gate Bridge', there's a whole lotta land to cover. Where exactly is he going, now?

Man, I am glad I am not at work today, because I would not be able to keep a straight face through all this.

Ah, yes, the Templars. It plays into the whole Masonic references quite well, which is probably the only constant in this game.

Also, IT'S ON:

(707): You got quite a pair for a girl! Red wants to know if you're taken.


Okay, addendum: constants being Masonic references and Starbucks. Ahahah.

I feel like I should've done this forever ago, but I'm throwing Bricker an email. Though if I have to write in Bricker!code for much longer, I'm gonna kick shins.

Look! I even found one for him: 866 999 6358. Red can thank me later when I come to pick up the meat.


And I would not recommend calling that number. Can you feel my frustration yet? :B

Welcome adamtash!
Hi adamtash, and welcome to the brood. You had a heavy workload reading all of those pages. I feel for you, really I do.

I found something interesting that may or may not be a coincidence for this twisty, turny path that is I'm Sorry: The "last" grand master of the Knights Templar was named Jacques de Molay. He was "roasted to death" in March of 1307. de Molay dies outside of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, on the Ile de la Cite'. He and other Templars were first arrested sometime after October 13, a Friday, which is when the Pope and Phillipe the Fair issued secret orders to round up the Templars.

Interestingly, I found this information in "Secrets of the Code" The Unauthorized guide to the Da Vinci Code, it's excerpted from "The Templar Revelation", by Lynn Pickett and someone else.

It occurs to me that if the Yuan thing is a key, it has to open something. What if Port needs to take that image to someone that acts as the Gatekeeper, to get his safe passage to The Brightman and then to the Oracle? My thoughts are that bars mentioned in The Novel might be a great idea, no matterif they still exist in RL or not. PM's can use creative license, after all.

Oh no! They heard about your shin-kicking plans and wanna beat you to it!

What's driving me nuts is that there's obviously something we've missed or we're overlooking...and that I can't find it no matter how many times I go back over all of the info we have.

Well, we'll just sit here in the dark, then. :B

But um, maybe? That's not a bad idea... though, considering that piece was set in 1997, I dunno how many of those places are still there a decade later. To Google!

Maybe we should have Port go down to one of those local bars mentioned in TGATT, and just hang around to see what he can here. Maybe there will be a chance of help there....?
