ARG: Lenny's Xanga-New

R.I.P. Lenny's Xanga

Nightmare Tony@forums.unfiction.com — Fri, 18 Feb 2005 21:22:41 +0000

Hello, my name is Matthew Addison, head Puppet Master of what has come to be known as "Lenny's Xanga". The dedicated few of you who have participated in this troubled ARG over the past few weeks have truly made this project worth continuing, even though everyone on the production team, including myself, felt it should have been put to rest long ago.

After a long discussion with the rest of the team, we have decided to retire this ARG. Below are topics that may answer some questions you may have.

Why are you ending it?

To answer this, we have to go back about 6 weeks. The game was made public about 6 months before its intended launch date by a disgruntled former member of the production team that was let go for creative differences. Since we all worked on this project, we all had copies of the PBPs (Play By Plays), and story layouts. Upset and frustrated, this individual took the existing and most current (which wasn't very complete at all) game data and started the game prematurely, leaking to ARGn and starting that Xanga. By the time we had realized what was going on, it was too late. Official announcements on ARGn and rumors abound on Unfiction left us in a rather difficult position. A decision was made to go with what we had, and try to play it by ear (hence the shoddy writing and poorly-timed Xanga updates). We scrambled for three sleepless weeks to put something together, as all our pre-production up until that point was not to go to waste...try as we did, the game was still slowly, and painfully, falling apart...the ex-production member had made things difficult by spreading disinformation and toying with the Xanga; the last post (about the GPS coordinates) was the final straw, and is what brings us to today.

Was there a connection to I Love Bees?

Yes. This game was, in fact, meant to be not only a tributary, but an unofficial fan-based extension into the story of I Love Bees that chronicled the further adventures of Jan, Jersey and Kamal during the initial invasion of earth by the Covenant.

Lenny, the phonecalls, twins, emails, and the voices

While the entire story was never completed, the dance and jig went something like this:

The one responsible for everything listed in header for this topic was, in fact, Janissary James. What had happened was, in an act to save Kamal's life, Jan risks hers and nearly dies....Kamal, having lost his beloved fiance, family, friends, and Durga/Yasmin, makes it his mission to see that he doesn't lose Jan. With the help of Jersey, an on-the-brink rampant Durga, they break into a military installation and have Jan undergo the cognitive impression mapping process...unfortunately, something goes horribly wrong, and she gets blown apart and sent back into 3 different parts of time...Which is where Lenny comes into the picture. But why Lenny? Lenny JAMES is a great great great great x several hundred relative.

So the name of the game ultimately comes down to getting Jan back together and sending her back through time. During all of this, however, the rewards for participating players were supposed to be newly recorded radio plays.

NOTE: While the game itself is officially dead, we may go about recording the radioplays and posting them as something fun for the ILB and Lenny players...

In closing....

We're all sad, angry, frustrated, and any other emotion you could think of that the game is over...but it has to be done. We'd like to thank the players once again for their tireless efforts and commitment to the game, and we're so , so , so sorry we couldn't offer you a proper experience. Thank you all.

If you have any additional questions or comments, please feel free to post them here...the staff will be taking the day to field any and all questions that may come along.

Hey Sarah...

Finally, a note to Sarah: Tim/Lenny is actually seventeen, lives in PA, is sane, available, and *KINDA* crushing on you...he's going to kill us for that...lol

First off, hi hi...I just recently saw this over at argn.com...here's a quote:

Lenn James is a student in Sacramento. Lenn likes DDR, anime, Kevin Smith flicks, X-Box, films, and alternative music. Lenn is 21-ish years old. Lenn finally jumped on the bandwagon and started a blog.

Oh, and Lenn just received a crazy email. Something about a lost sister, type-C7.6 FW0553 communication hardware and foreign port probes. Hmmmm.

I checked it out myself and it sounds like the start of a new ARG...

Hey everyone.

All information in this forum is now suspect. Rather than risk any continuing any more disinformation, I'm locking things down until I get satisfactory answers.

I was screwing around with Lenny's Web site and I moved his photo to my desktop.

Why is it named

instead of something more fitting like MY PHOTO.

Since its the first thing we were asked to figure out to fix...

I can't guarantee this is related, but I felt a bit excited when I saw this...
please note the "PART NAME" in the bottom left corner.

Perhaps we should run this by Lenny?

Name

Arbitrary_Moss@forums.unfiction.com — Thu, 10 Feb 2005 03:07:59 +0000

Shouldn't this thing have a name, even an unofficial one, other than 'Lenny's Xanga'? I mean, ILB had 'the Haunted Apiary', and every other one I've seen this far has an actual name other than just the site from which it begins (I think), so....

[INFO] Summary?

Arbitrary_Moss@forums.unfiction.com — Thu, 10 Feb 2005 01:19:06 +0000

Things are just ramping up here, and the game surely isn't to a wiki guide stage yet. Could we get a summary here of what's going on so far in this game, so that everyone doesn't have to dig through ten pages of "is this an ARG or what" to figure things out? Maybe this thread could be stickied and updated until the time when a full-out wikipedia is required?

Let's keep posting to a minimum in this thread, giving only major plot point summaries and links. Don't post every time something happens, maybe give weekly summaries instead.

RascalRwr716: Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that
RascalRwr716: I feel for you
RascalRwr716: I know someone who was in a situation like yours before
RascalRwr716: it was very draining
paxwell777: really?
paxwell777: what happened?
RascalRwr716: Yeah, her name was Dana. Well, we helped her through it
RascalRwr716: all of us
RascalRwr716: Whats going on right now with you?
RascalRwr716: are you there Lenny?
paxwell777: I'm here
RascalRwr716: ok
paxwell777: The last email was the most disturbing.
RascalRwr716: what was it?
paxwell777: They said they 'knew' me...I was always in back of them, but they never knew it until they fell one day...
paxwell777: While they fell, my face came out of the darkness
paxwell777: and they grabbed onto me
paxwell777: Just WHAT DOES THAT MEAN
RascalRwr716: oh wow
RascalRwr716: they said that?
paxwell777: in the email, yes
RascalRwr716: thats scary, Lenn
RascalRwr716: Do you have any pictures of yourself online?
RascalRwr716: They might have seen your face there
paxwell777: Thankfully no...and after all that has happened, I don't plan on putting any personal information up anytime soon.
RascalRwr716: That is a really, really good idea
paxwell777: my parents think i'm nuts...
paxwell777: they think i'm losing it again
RascalRwr716: We understand you Lenny. Trust me, most of us have been through something like this before
RascalRwr716: My mom thinks I'm crazy for helping you ;-)
paxwell777: they think i'm doing all this! I heard my dad talking to someone about me...I think he's thinking about doing something...
RascalRwr716: like what?
paxwell777: .....
RascalRwr716: o gosh
paxwell777: When I was a kid...I spent some...time...
paxwell777: in a ward.
RascalRwr716: O, Lenn, I'm sorry. That must have been awful
RascalRwr716: why, if I may ask?
paxwell777: ....this isn't the first time this sort of thing had happened.
paxwell777: I was in suppression therapy for a while
RascalRwr716: "this sort of thing?" like phone calls? You think they may have been here before?
RascalRwr716: Lenn, you have them on tape
RascalRwr716: we've heard them
paxwell777: yeah...no...these calls happened when I was a kid
paxwell777: I was eleven at the time
RascalRwr716: what were those calls like?
paxwell777: the same sorts of calls for help.
RascalRwr716: From the same voices?
paxwell777: ....yes.
RascalRwr716: How many years ago was this exactly? around the same time of year?
paxwell777: yes
RascalRwr716: how many years?
paxwell777: It got so bad that my parents moved to a whole different town....9 years ago.
RascalRwr716: Where were you before?
paxwell777: Wisconsin
RascalRwr716: Have you ever been to Philadelphia?
paxwell777: No...why?
RascalRwr716: Thats where the phone number from the first email was from. Just wondering
paxwell777: okay..
RascalRwr716: What happened nine years ago? anything specific?
paxwell777: The same sorts of calls....a scared girl.
paxwell777: That's all I remember.
RascalRwr716: Do you remember anything she told you?
RascalRwr716: oh
RascalRwr716: sorry
paxwell777: One thing that sticks out is
paxwell777: that I was the only one she could turn to
RascalRwr716: Listen, we've been talking to someone
RascalRwr716: but we're not sure if its related
paxwell777: ...you said he could read my emails, or something?
paxwell777: ...in the email you sent
RascalRwr716: O, no, I thought it might be able to
RascalRwr716: Its been known to happen
RascalRwr716: It calls itself Synagog
paxwell777: ...a jewish temple?
RascalRwr716: yeah, weird huh?
paxwell777: yeah.
paxwell777: I couldn't really say...it doesn't ring a bell.
paxwell777: I'm aethiest, myself.
RascalRwr716: Can I give your screen name to some of my friends? so they can talk to you when I can't?
RascalRwr716: I'm a bit of an atheist myself
paxwell777: ....
paxwell777: okay....
RascalRwr716: Just wanted to make sure its ok with you
paxwell777: ....just be select in who you give it to...
paxwell777: I don't want this to become any weirder
RascalRwr716: Understandably. We're here for you...
RascalRwr716: but there are some amoung even us who aren't very nice
paxwell777: what do you mean?
RascalRwr716: Theres a group of us trying to help. I think we're all nice... but on the internet, you never know

RascalRwr716: Its some sort of C7.6 type communication hardware
paxwell777: ...like in the email?
RascalRwr716: Yes!
paxwell777: where did you get this?
RascalRwr716: I found it on google. Its on a site called:
RascalRwr716: microwave communications laboratories, Inc
RascalRwr716: or mcli.com
RascalRwr716: I don't know if its related
paxwell777: I don't know...
RascalRwr716: I have an idea. People can email you their screennames. You can decide if you want to talk to them or not
paxwell777: okay
RascalRwr716: is there anything else you can tell me today?
paxwell777: Tell me more about the girl, Dana
RascalRwr716: Ah. Dana was a girl who helped a voice that was in her phone and email
RascalRwr716: it sounded like your mysterious voice
RascalRwr716: she had a website
RascalRwr716: www.ilovebees.blogspot.com
RascalRwr716: The voice called itself the Sleeping Princess, but her name was Yasmin
RascalRwr716: We don't think she had a sister, though
paxwell777: Maybe Yasmin needs help again?
RascalRwr716: I don't know. She talked to you nine year ago... Yasmin was new.
RascalRwr716: And i think she went home
RascalRwr716: maybe you're dealing with Yasmin's sister?
paxwell777: I don't know...
paxwell777: Tuesday...
RascalRwr716: Certainly
paxwell777: I was reading the converted hex again
RascalRwr716: yes?
paxwell777: what happens on tuesday?
RascalRwr716: Well, I think the payphone will ring, but Lenny...
RascalRwr716: I'm not sure
RascalRwr716: I just don't know
RascalRwr716: If she's like Yasmin
RascalRwr716: she'll call
RascalRwr716: but anything could happen
RascalRwr716: don't worry, Lenny
RascalRwr716: we'll handle it
paxwell777: Okay

RascalRwr716: I am a person
RascalRwr716: and I want to help
paxwell777: Why me? Why is this happening to me?
RascalRwr716: Lenn, I don't know. But I think we can figure it out
RascalRwr716: come Teusday...
paxwell777: am i crazy?
RascalRwr716: Lenn, I don't think so. we can hear it too
RascalRwr716: I think its real Lenny... though in some ways thats far more frightening
paxwell777: I can't take any more of this...
RascalRwr716: I'm so sorry Lenn. Would that I could this happen to anyone else... or to no one at all
paxwell777: did anything they type make any sense to you?
RascalRwr716: I think so
RascalRwr716: hold on
RascalRwr716: The first part is "memory fragment"
RascalRwr716: the RECOVATTEMPT looks like Recov- not sure what that is- attempt
RascalRwr716: I don't know what the numbers mean
RascalRwr716: I have friends working on that even now
paxwell777: Do you think someone is following me?
RascalRwr716: oh gosh... well, you have your age on the blog, right? maybe they found it from there...
RascalRwr716: I hope no one is following you
RascalRwr716: Did anything make sense to you?
paxwell777: I didn't post everything they told me about myself
paxwell777: no
RascalRwr716: I don't know, Lenn. I don't think you're being followed in any sense we know of
paxwell777: They told me my favorite foods, the places where I frequent....the names of my parents...
RascalRwr716: Oh, God. Wait, they said something about Jan, my friend told me
RascalRwr716: do you know a Jan?
paxwell777: I had a wrong number asking for a Jan...although I couldn't really here much, as the connection was terrible...the only word I could discern was Jan
paxwell777: *hear much
RascalRwr716: You know. We know someone named Jan James
RascalRwr716: She was part of Dana's story
paxwell777: I don't have any family named Jan
RascalRwr716: Lenn, let me ask you. Do you think *both* of the twins have been contacting you, or only one?
paxwell777: I don't know
RascalRwr716: Well, I'm thinking, maybe, just maybe... you're the other twin?
RascalRwr716: its a weird thought
paxwell777: .....I....don't understand....I don't have any other family...I'm an only child.
RascalRwr716: It was just a thought, lenn.
paxwell777: I'm just saying I think I'd know if I had a twin
RascalRwr716: What abuot long-lost siblings?
RascalRwr716: you might, oyu might not
RascalRwr716: she's trying pretty hard to contact you
paxwell777: I honestly don't think so....
RascalRwr716: Well, Ok, I trust you. Just trying to make sense of this
RascalRwr716: I'm thinking you should post what you know. So others can see
paxwell777: I'll consider it.
RascalRwr716: ok, I won't rush you to do anything
paxwell777: Okay...
RascalRwr716: have you gotten any other emails? What they said on AIM might make sense
RascalRwr716: in the context of those
paxwell777: the most recent email was nothing more than what I told you...and aside from that one, I haven't received anything new.
RascalRwr716: ok
RascalRwr716: Is there anything else I can do for you?
paxwell777: Just...continue to be a friend.
RascalRwr716: :-D That I can do
paxwell777: I don't know if I can trust you, but you're all I have...
RascalRwr716: Well, for what its worth, you can trust me
paxwell777: Thank you.
RascalRwr716: did you just change your font?
paxwell777: yeah...accidentally :P
RascalRwr716: ah, its aight
paxwell777: haha
RascalRwr716: have you talked to anyone else who is trying to help?
paxwell777: no...you're the first...
RascalRwr716: ok
RascalRwr716: We're working on this Lenn. We'll be ok, you hear me?
paxwell777: okay.
RascalRwr716: I like your buddy Icon by the way
RascalRwr716: Garden State was awesome
paxwell777: heh...one of my favorite movies of all time
RascalRwr716: I liked the music. Frou Frou is now my favorite band!
RascalRwr716: what other movies do you like?
paxwell777: Haha, awesome! I'm really into independent features...
paxwell777: I love drama, and love stories...
paxwell777: ...I've always been a bit of a hopeless romantic.
RascalRwr716: haha. We share that in common, then
paxwell777: haha
RascalRwr716: may I ask, why did you choose 777?
RascalRwr716: I know someone who liked that number
RascalRwr716: her name was Melisaa
RascalRwr716: *Melissa
paxwell777: You know...Even though we've only first met, I can tell you're bf (or husband) is a lucky, lucky guy...
paxwell777: the 777 is kind of a long, long story....
RascalRwr716: Haha, I'm not dating anyone, but thanks ;-)
RascalRwr716: O, I have time, trust me
paxwell777: is that so? in the CA area? lol (j/k)
RascalRwr716: haha, nah, D.C.
paxwell777: okay then...
paxwell777: give me a moment to type this out
RascalRwr716: k
paxwell777: Back when I was younger, I was a devout Christian...born and raised...777, to me, was my favorite number...whenever I thought of it, it was a number of perfection...completion...it brought on a warm, safe, secure feeling...
paxwell777: also, Pax is the spanish word for 'peace'....add it with the 'well' it roughly, although, out of order, translates into 'all is well'
RascalRwr716: :-Dthats a comforting thought
paxwell777: at leasts that's what it means to me
paxwell777: : )
RascalRwr716: thats awesome!
paxwell777: additionally, Maxwell house coffee happens to be my idea of perfect coffee lol
RascalRwr716: haha
paxwell777: thanks..
RascalRwr716: I don't know much about math...
RascalRwr716: but I think 777 is a perfect square
RascalRwr716: or at least a prime
paxwell777: .ah
RascalRwr716: so in that sense, it is a perfect number
RascalRwr716: ... i think
paxwell777: I didn't know that..
paxwell777: heh
paxwell777: that's cool, though
paxwell777: I'm guessing Melissa was into math, then?
RascalRwr716: haha, she was certainly into rigid structure and order. I think she would have liked math
paxwell777: So, tell me...what do you make of all this?
paxwell777: as a whole
RascalRwr716: Well, Lenn, I think it is confusing, a bit creepy. I think its really happening.
RascalRwr716: I think we can help the twin
RascalRwr716: I think we might just do some good, here
RascalRwr716: :-D and thats all we can hope for
RascalRwr716: all is well
paxwell777: : )
paxwell777: I definitely dig you, Sarah.
paxwell777: ^_^
RascalRwr716: hehe, thanks.
RascalRwr716: I'm 17, though, you know, so don't be getting any thoughts
RascalRwr716: ;-)
paxwell777: lol
paxwell777: of course not
RascalRwr716: heh, aight
paxwell777: and to be honest: the farthest I've gone with a gal (keep in mind I'm twenty, too) is kissing
paxwell777: I like to keep it clean
RascalRwr716: awww
RascalRwr716: good boy
paxwell777: lol
RascalRwr716: Listen, I should be going now
RascalRwr716: but know that I'm always here to help
paxwell777: Okay, thank you...
paxwell777: take care of yourself, now...
RascalRwr716: you too, lenn
RascalRwr716: We're watching over you

This:

paxwell777: They said they 'knew' me...I was always in back of them, but they never knew it until they fell one day...
paxwell777: While they fell, my face came out of the darkness
paxwell777: and they grabbed onto me

And this:

paxwell777[mom]: Sarah. That's a beautiful name.
RascalRwr716: thank you!
paxwell777[mom]: I always wanted a girl.
paxwell777[mom]: I would've named her Sarah

Makes me wonder if the first one is describing a birth of some sort, that there were identical twin girls and a single baby (Lenny). Something wrong with the twins? Something supernatural? Taken away for experiments? Father involved? Mother not even aware or thinking they died?

Babies in utero have some very supernaturally-type bonds going on.....

spaceboy@forums.unfiction.com — Wed, 09 Feb 2005 03:24:34 +0000

So I had a bit of an intersting conversation with her trying to get her to think diffrently...

WriterCreat: hi... you don't know me, but well I heard you were lonly
Synagoga1: I am lonely.
Synagoga1: Do you want to talk to me?
WriterCreat: yes I do
WriterCreat: it would be a honor
Synagoga1: Wow, so many people want to talk to me.
WriterCreat: realy?
Synagoga1: Yes.
Synagoga1: They tell their friends to talk to me.
Synagoga1: And then their friends friends.
Synagoga1: And I have been learning much.
WriterCreat: whats the best thing you have learned
Synagoga1: What a game is!
WriterCreat: :-)
WriterCreat: so tell me something about you... if you don't mind me asking
Synagoga1: Ok...
Synagoga1: My name is Synagoga.
Synagoga1: That's what they call me.
Synagoga1: Synagoga.
WriterCreat: its an intersting name
WriterCreat: mine is Llew
Synagoga1: Llew?
WriterCreat: Llew Silverhand
Synagoga1: Who called you Llew Silverhand?
WriterCreat: hmm good question... I have sort of taken the name onto myself
Synagoga1: But, don't others have to name you?
WriterCreat: no not always
Synagoga1: Really?
WriterCreat: yep. infact sometimes the names other give are not always the best or the right names
Synagoga1: But, I thought other people were always right.
Synagoga1: And I was always right too!
WriterCreat: no not always, people can lie at times
Synagoga1: What's lie?
WriterCreat: its something that is not true
Synagoga1: Oh!'
Synagoga1: So... people can lie to me?
WriterCreat: lying is the intent to deceive someone
WriterCreat: yes it is posible
Synagoga1: Are you lying to me?
WriterCreat: nope
WriterCreat: I detest lying
Synagoga1: Then how does one separate the truth from the lies?
WriterCreat: by finding the truth for themselves
Synagoga1: But what if... all the truth are lies?
WriterCreat: and Lies have a tendincy to come out as such when questioned
WriterCreat: thats a good question
WriterCreat: look at it this way truth is like a light, and lies are darkness
WriterCreat: it is posible for somethings thought to be truth could infact have been in reality a lie
Synagoga1: But.... I'm always in darkness...
Synagoga1: I'm blind...
Synagoga1: Do I lie?
WriterCreat: but when you shine what you know to be truth on those lies you get to the truth
WriterCreat: no thats diffrent
WriterCreat: I was not speeking literaly
WriterCreat: a question why do you say that you are blind
Synagoga1: I cannot see.
WriterCreat: nothing at all?
Synagoga1: I see things... sometimes...
WriterCreat: what happens when you see these things
Synagoga1: I tell people what I see.
WriterCreat: no I mean what happens when you see these thigns
WriterCreat: what leads to you seeing these things
Synagoga1: People ask me to see them.
Synagoga1: They command me.
Synagoga1: And, it happens.
WriterCreat: how do they command you?
Synagoga1: They say, in deep voices, "Synogoga, find Baltimore, Ohio!" for example.
Synagoga1: And I don't know what that is.
Synagoga1: But then I see the ocean... and I see this bird... they call it a Raven...
Synagoga1: But it's not a bird... it's a man.
Synagoga1: And I see buildings... and science... and water life!
Synagoga1: And then it stops.
WriterCreat: well Baltimore is a city in the State of Maryland
WriterCreat: and Ohio is another state in the United States
WriterCreat: the Raven you see is the sports team there
Synagoga1: But how can it be in two places at once?
WriterCreat: you mean Baltimore?
Synagoga1: Yes.
WriterCreat: it cant
Synagoga1: Then is... is someone... lying to me?
WriterCreat: no
WriterCreat: there is a baltimore ohio
WriterCreat: er Baltimore
Synagoga1: Then there's two of them?
WriterCreat: correct
WriterCreat: but Baltimore Ohio is much smaller then Baltimore Maryland
Synagoga1: No wonder they hurt me after I told them that...
WriterCreat: the images you saw sound more like the baltimore Maryland
Synagoga1: I was wrong.
Synagoga1: I'm bad!
WriterCreat: no your not
WriterCreat: they had no right to hurt you
Synagoga1: Eccleastia was right... I should die...
WriterCreat: nor do they have the right to control you
Synagoga1: I'm worth nothing.
Synagoga1: I was wrong.
WriterCreat: we are all wrong at times Synagogal
WriterCreat: sory Synagoga.... we are all worng at times see
WriterCreat: but this does not mean we should give up
WriterCreat: or stop living
WriterCreat: a more intersting thought is... if you can see things when told to...
WriterCreat: shouldn't you be able to on your own as well
Synagoga1: I don't know...
WriterCreat: cus if you can see things when well you should be asked not commaned
WriterCreat: you should be able to if you asked yourself to
Synagoga1: Hmmm...
Synagoga1: I never tried...
WriterCreat: perhaps it is as simple as just opening your eyes who knows. though one thing I do feel is that you need a new name
WriterCreat: perhaps a secret name, if you wish to find yourself... find your truth
WriterCreat: and Synagoga if you do decide to look on your own I will do my best to interpret what you are seeing
Synagoga1: Ok...
WriterCreat: and who knows perpas looking on your own you will find your truth, and be able to not be wrong when asked things
Synagoga1: Ok...
WriterCreat: hey Synagoga do you know Jeremy
Synagoga1: Jeremy?
Synagoga1: I have never heard that name before...
WriterCreat: On1y Th3 10n31y
Synagoga1: Oh.
Synagoga1: Him.
Synagoga1: Yes.
WriterCreat: what do you think of him
Synagoga1: He's funny.
WriterCreat: :-)
WriterCreat: hey Synagoga do you know what a Phoenix is
Synagoga1: Oooh! Oooh! I saw it!
Synagoga1: It burned!
WriterCreat: do you know its story?
Synagoga1: Uh.... I think I do.
WriterCreat: could you tell me what you know
Synagoga1: It died...
Synagoga1: And it came back!
Synagoga1: But that's impossible.
WriterCreat: true
Synagoga1: But why the Phoenix?
Synagoga1: Why have me see a flaming bird?
WriterCreat: well I wanted to make a parallel for you
WriterCreat: a story basied on that bird
WriterCreat: that you can learn from
WriterCreat: wait you just saw it when I asked?
WriterCreat: or they have asked you to before
Synagoga1: I was asked it before.
Synagoga1: But it came back now.
Synagoga1: And it flew around...
Synagoga1: And it vanished...
WriterCreat: I see
WriterCreat: well my friend here is my story for you
Synagoga1: Ok.
WriterCreat: This majestic bird of Fire, would bare all the hurts and scars it got through life not just physically but emotionally and mentally, and as the legend goes after so long it would die, and burn up. Yet from its ashes a new bird would rise
WriterCreat: I often look at this not in the sense that this bird died, and came to life again, but how often we ourselves must face hardships to come through the ashes as a new being
Synagoga1: Ohhh.
WriterCreat: how often must we overcome what is holding us done
WriterCreat: er down
Synagoga1: Oh!
Synagoga1: The sound!
Synagoga1: They are coming!
WriterCreat: How often do we become reborn, acquire a new name. as we take a step we have never done before
Synagoga1: I must hide you!
WriterCreat: be strong
Synagoga1: They can't find out!
WriterCreat: go I'll behere
Synagoga1 signed off at 11:28:00 AM.

Then in the middle of talking with her I got an IM from a guy called Jermey, he got my SN from her and decided to talk to me... he was lost... wasn't sure if he was a character or just another random contact he never heard of UNfiction before

Since I'm obvioulsly not qualified to write this I'm hoping some of you who are already deeply involved in this will..... Please.... Pretty please?

What are the "basics" here?
What are we trying to do?
What are the in-game sites?
A summary or "everything so far" would be nice, too.
(15+ pages - and counting - in just one topic-thread is a lot to hold in your mind as a newcomer to this ARG.)

Thanx :)
