[CONTACT?]News/TV/Radio - Emails/Calls & Responses

I think it's a good idea to start a new topic for all emails/letters/whatever we send to try and contact Gertrude

So here's my first attempt Smile

Quote:
I'm not sure whether this is the right place for this or whether I'm
barking up the wrong tree, however, I'm playing a "game" that's based on
experiments between the Germans and the US after WWII.

It's about The Unholy Trinity. I wont go into detail until I know you're
interested because I dont want to waste your time with details.

Basically, we need to broadcast world-wide for contact from someone who
is missing. Her name is Gertrude and that's all we have right now. She
has a TV and radio and we're hoping that you can help us find her, or
help her find us.

Please contact me if you want further details, or just to tell me I'm
wasting my time.

Thanks in advance.


and the response

Quote:
Thank you for your email.

BBC World Service radio broadcasts SOS messages only in the case of
genuine emergencies (medical alerts, death in the family), when we can
confirm where in the world the person to be contacted is located,
whether we broadcast to that region and whether the person is likely to
be listening to our service (i.e. has a short-wave radio).

So we regret that we cannot help in this instance.

Regards
Audience Relations
BBC World Service

I regret to inform you all that my School Newspaper refuses to run an ad for me Sad they said it was "too risky to run an ad that is for an ARG... whatever that is..."

Edit: I watched the /unholy movie on my mac and i paused it at about 7 seconds when you see it flash red and then show hitler... there is a man at the top right who doesn;t look human. anyone care to comment what that is?

I noticed that too. I kept pausing the clip and it looks like 2 men behind hitler look like their eyes are glowing. I read something about the big swastikas being used to transmit messages by reflecting the light. Kind of like a type of morse code.

See, this where I think making it seem like we're actually promoting a movie would help our cause. If we make it seem like we're trying to find a missing person or something (like an SOS), then people would probably be afraid to help us out.

Hi Guys,

Haven't really been playing this so don't know what it's all about but you should go to some of the film covering websites like Ain't it Cool News, Chud.com, or even send full details of what you want to appear to me for the film webzine I work on, but Ain't It Cool was where the AI Beast started, and I think Chud started up another ARG recently when they got a poster with a code on it.

A few weeks ago I sent Sheldrake (the Aint It Cool contributor who interviewed Sam Freeman and Daryl Goldberg a few weeks ago) an email describing the ARG, but he hasn't mentioned anything about it on the site.

Dread Central and Arrow in the Head have reported several of the site updates already.

I think he's just talking about the poster for Unholy which CHUD posted last week (and which led me into this is it/isn't it ARG). That poster is the same document page that's on the trailhead site with a tagline and the webaddress on the bottom. I posted a link to the CHUD story when I got here in the "Possible ARG" topic, on page 32 I think.
