Shocked Not Jan as in Jan... James? And you know those chatternet connections -- aren't they sometimes a bit buggy? If you listen to the old .wav's, the hangup noise sure sounds awful like a be-beep....

This is getting way too co-incidental now. But is it a cheap copy or a continuation? Arrrgh. Guess we'll find out on Tuesday, huh?


This is a bit too coincidential.

 		More strangeness that has got me thinking that this ARG is bigger than it seems:

The E-mail was dated the 20th of Jan (the first hint we had that this blog was part of an ARG). That means ARGN instantly updated their newspge, talk about being in league with the PM. ARGN were excited about something...

 		O, I don't doubt that ARGn had a little more than a helpful hint, implying that it is in almost all probability someone they know... I think we agree on that.
Its fun that its nostalgic to ILB, but not cool that payphones are ringing in cities where no one we know lives. I wouldn't mind it if it were a spinoff, although since that might necesitate knowing tiny details of the ILB story that would turn off some readers. But I do hope this game is a bit different.

What I AM nostalgic for is something like the main ILB site, which had enough hidden stories to keep you busy in between Dana's posts.....

BTW, cool about Lenny writing you, I didn't get a message like that! What did you ask him?

 		Lets put the pieces together, shall we? Jan's last name is JAMES, as is Lennys. Anyone else with me on this? Of course this is all speculation, but it seems to have connection (to me, at least).

 		Lenny updated his blog this evening. Not too much, but here it is:

Sunday, February 06, 2005

Just when you think the nonsense is all over, an email rears it's head out of the water, this time, with a new email address...my phonenumber. If one of you out there is playing games with me, I want it to stop, OKAY? It's obvious you want my attention...YOU'VE HAD IT FOR A LONG, LONG TIME. I JUST WANT IT TO STOP, OKAY?! I'M LISTENING. WHAT DO YOU WANT? HOW CAN I HELP...YOU HAVE MY NUMBER. No more cryptic BS! HOW CAN I HELP YOU?! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!?


Interesting.

Hmm...I think if I recall the audio files correctly from the ILB saga, the last name 'James' was actually an alias, something false, and that Jan and Jan's dad surname is actually 'Lee'.

But, yes, I do agree that there could possibly be a connection, though...it might only go so far as them sharing the last name. Ah well, only time will tell. Cool

 		I don't think it ever mentioned an actual surname for J^2 and Jan, but I could be wrong.

EDIT: But that's possibly irrelevant.

I was asking him about the times that he was getting calls. We then got into a conversation about Xbox Live, so cool!

Also, this whole Jan James thing seems more than a coincidence. This is getting more spooky by the second. This better not be a rip-off!

Lenny is definitely getting irate now. I can only imagine how this is going to twist and turn after tomorrow's event.

*edit
After some more digging around through that muck, I found this site:

http://www.newlifebapchurch.com

The page is designed so badly that it's almost suspicious. I especially like the <%@ LANGUAGE=JAVASCRIPT @%> at the top of each page.

But it doesn't appear to have any leads or anything worth following. All the links look legit, and it's got a lot of old content.

Listed on the staff page is:

Pastor
Lendell Wallace Sr.

Church Drummer & Webmaster
Lendell Wallace Jr


yeah i think the bottom copyrite credit of:

sorta puts up a red flag.

 		seen this?
Hi, new to this Arg - This looks like fun.

I've just read this thread and was wondering if this:

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8879

was anything to do with Lenny's??

Thought I'd post the link as I didn't want people to miss it on the other forum...

What do you think?

 		I picked up on that. It does seem odd. I've added them and I'll soon hopefully get to speak to them.

 		HKDL was posting around Lenny's Xanga, right?

The weird thing is, it seems that HKDL was completely in charge of the conversation....

My vote is that it *is* related, but I'll just have to wait and see.
HOW did she get HKDL's sn?

And how can we give her ours?

You see, that's exactly why I think this is related. Hkdl was posting around the original thread, and if you look at his profile he actually displays his sn. The only negative factor is, to me, the person on the other side of the conversation appeared to be making stuff up as they went along. I have AIM so I've added their sn. Hopefully I should be around to have a word or two. Let's keep our eyes peeled.

Synagoga1: Oh, yes.
Synagoga1: Samara or Hkdl?
crowfootcornix: Hkdl, he's more of a face I know than a friend, I saw a post he'd made on a forum

crowfootcornix: Can I ask you something?
Synagoga1: Um, sure.
crowfootcornix: Do you have a twin sister?
Synagoga1: What's a sister?

crowfootcornix: for example a mother and a father, a family
Synagoga1: There's this woman who talks to me.
Synagoga1: Sometimes.
Synagoga1: But not often.
crowfootcornix: What's she like?
Synagoga1: She's weird.

crowfootcornix: one of them mentioned this hardware
crowfootcornix: and a twin sister who is missing
Synagoga1: Oh?
crowfootcornix: I'm trying to help
Synagoga1: Why would you want to do that?
Synagoga1: Because I thought sisters hurt people.
Synagoga1: So it's good that she doesn't have a sister!
crowfootcornix: What? Sisters don't hurt people. I thought you said you didn't have a sister
Synagoga1: You said I did.
Synagoga1: Am I wrong?
crowfootcornix: Oh, this woman, she might not be your sister
Synagoga1: Oh?
crowfootcornix: does she call you a sister?
Synagoga1: I've never heard that word until you said it.
crowfootcornix: oh right. So what does this woman say to you? Is she one of the ones that calls you Synagogal?
Synagoga1: Yes. She calls me Synagoga.
Synagoga1: She calls me the blind one.
crowfootcornix: do you think there are lots of people like you? Trapped?
Synagoga1: I don't know.
Synagoga1: I can't see them.
Synagoga1: I hear them.
crowfootcornix: Then there must be
crowfootcornix: You should try and talk to them
Synagoga1: I talk sometimes.
Synagoga1: But most of the time I am told to hush.
crowfootcornix: Oh I see
crowfootcornix: How are you speaking to me, do you have a computer?
Synagoga1: What's a computer?
crowfootcornix: It's something you use to speak to people with words
crowfootcornix: so you're just talking with your mind or soemthing?
Synagoga1: Oh. Well, I just talk.
Synagoga1: And things happen.
crowfootcornix: What things?
Synagoga1: Different things.
crowfootcornix: For example?
Synagoga1: I talk to you.
crowfootcornix: ah, ok
crowfootcornix: do you know how long you've been whereever you are?
Synagoga1: No.
Synagoga1: I don't.
Synagoga1: Is it bad that I'm here?
crowfootcornix: I don't know, you've got to decide that for yourself
Synagoga1: Oh.
crowfootcornix: I guess it is, you can't see, you get hurt and nobody speaks to you
Synagoga1: But I have you though.
Synagoga1: Right?
crowfootcornix: Yeah of course, and the other people like me who have spoken to you
Synagoga1: You are kind.
Synagoga1: I like you.
crowfootcornix: Thank you
crowfootcornix: I like you too
Synagoga1: I want more people to be kind like you.

Synagoga1: I try to be kind.
Synagoga1: And do what they want.
Synagoga1: But they always say that I'm not ready.
crowfootcornix: Maybe you're being tested with or for something

crowfootcornix: I'm sure you would!
crowfootcornix: At least you can remember colours
crowfootcornix: and what a ranibow looks like
Synagoga1: I've seen that.
crowfootcornix: I think maybe you're in a lab, being having chemicals and things tested on you. That would affect your sight and memory
Synagoga1: That doesn't sound fun.
crowfootcornix: No, it doesn't
crowfootcornix: I wish I could get you out of wherever you are
Synagoga1: Why?
crowfootcornix: because it doens't sound like your enjoying yourself really
Synagoga1: I am not.
crowfootcornix: If I knew more about you maybe I could help in some way
crowfootcornix: are you male or female?
Synagoga1: Female.
crowfootcornix: There's a start
crowfootcornix: do you remember what you were doing before you suddenly ended up where you are now?

Synagoga1: Oh.

Synagoga1: Will you be here again?
