New site!
The gatekeeper contacted me directly saying
Looks like we know who has Iris, now we just need to figure out what to do about it (and who to help.)

Isn't there another ARG called "Black Awakening"?

Yes there is, LadyLovelylocks, yes there is.
But I hope this isn't that game -- I would have thought they'd learned their lesson.

I really don't think they're related.
Here're the latest emails. First Iris Eye (answers2yourquestions):
Sent:
Quote:
I saw the recording. It's quite distressing, how did you find it? The site has been changed again. It says that the place will soon be open, does this mean anything to you? Can I even trust the site anymore?
Recieved:
Quote:
Look To The Site For Clues.The ones that hacked it arent the kidnappers.They call themselves the true searchers.They are really the.....I cant say it.They want Iris for her information.I need to return the information back safely.I NEED THE INFORMATION
Sent:
Quote:
I may have information and proof of who is holding Iris but first I want something from you. What do you want with Iris? What is this information she holds and how can I be sure you will not use it responsibly? Where did you get that recording and if it tells you where she is, why have you not found her yourself? I apologise for all the questions but I have recieved the impression that this is a very delicate and important matter and I would not want to mess things up by giving out information to those who should not have it.
I was offering the information on the Black Cats from the The Place website.
Recieved:
Quote:
I want her safe and well.I need to then unlock her mind to find the information to see if it is still there.I cannot comment on where I got the recording.I am still looking for the place
Sent:
Quote:
What do you know about The Place? The current holders of Iris and their progress can be found at The Place. I know the location of the place but i'm still not sure if I should trust you as I'm not sure anyone should be looking at Iris' mind if the information is that dangerous. What happened in 1962?
Recieved:
Quote:
1962?Something happened that year that nobody knows about.Something big which was a cover up.Iris only knows.Searching is the key.Search 1962
So if anyone can think of stuff that happened in 1962 that might be something to send back. I suggested the Cuban Missile Crisis so I'll wait and see what they say.
Also I continued my correspondance with the Gatekeeper. After he sent me the website for The Place I sent:
Quote:
I've been told by someone known as Iris Eye not to contact you. How do I know who can be trusted? Who is Iris Eye?
Recieved:
Quote:
You can trust me.I have looked at the place.It seems a group called the black cats have Iris.
Iris Eye was Iris' mentor.He was fired from SAC two months ago for trying to access Iris' mind.
So now at last we know who we're dealing with (assuming he's telling the truth.)
Sent:
Quote:
Ok, I've decided to let you have the information. Iris Eye sent me the recording but would not say where he got it from. It is recorded footage with sounds of somebody beating a woman (I would preume it to be iris) The visual simply says: Transponder34 34* Transmission45 5## loc:dub all written in white on a black background. I don't know if any of that will be of use but I suppose at least it puts you and Iris Eye on a level playing field. He does not yet know the location but I believed it might be possible to deduce it from this feed and the above information.
Recieved:
Quote:
You have been in contact with Iris Eye?
Please tell me you haven't fallen for his plans.Iris Eye wants the information in order to put our organization in the public eye.He may have signed an NDA but he still wants to find a way to release the dangerous missions that the SAC have undertaken.I don't even know of these missions even though I took part.Iris knows deep down.
So in summation we're dealing with an elite military group who don't even know of their own missions, a disgraced ex member of said group, desperate for the information in Iris' head and an unknown organisation who seem to want to leak all this secrecy to the public.
Let the intrigue continue...
EDIT: there's a pic of the headquarters at The Place and also it seems that despite being kidnapped and one of the most widely sought people on the planet, Iris has also managed to start her own Blog. http://helpiris.blogspot.com (Actually I'm not sure I trust this blog at the moment. It seems very one-sided towards the figure currently most suspect)

Sac and 1962 I beagan cross searchimg the Strategic Air Command with (SAC) with 1962 and found the following info. Although I don't think any of it is of major use, thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to compile it for later use. As I find more interesting links, I'll add them

There are quite a few conspiracy theories from that time including the Mars landing, the plot to remove Fidel Castro and the build up to the JFK assasination. ooh maybe Iris knows who was behind the grassy knoll!

Just a brief email from the gatekeeper saying the blog is a fake and was made by Iris Eye. Fits in with what I already thought as it seems too pursuasive and the style of writing is very similar.
Well, it seems that blog was a fake but the next email said:
Quote:
Word has been going around that Iris is communicting through a blog about farms.I dont know nuch else
I try a brief google, get nowhere, on a whim decide to test irisfarm.blogspot.com and voi la! Lucky guesses rule
The capitals spell out
Quote:
THE KIDNAPERS ARE PlANING AN ASASINATION SOURCE OF CITYS RE
which could be trying to say check the source of citystreet. If you check the source of citystreet.moonfruit.com/welcome there's an extra line of text that doen't appear in the main page. It says
Quote:
I have hidden this message in the source of their website.I am in holland.They are keeping me in a building in a football park called jeka.
After informing the Gatekeeper, he replied
Quote:
That sounds stupid why would they keep her there.
It must be a diversion.I am sending men over to holland straight away.
EDIT: aaand he was right. No sooner had he sent me this:
Quote:
Im on my way to holland.I got a quick note that city street is updated but i have no time to check it out.Please do it for me.I will keep in contact through my PDA
and I checked the site and found this message
Quote:
Sampson we know your on our trail.We will give you no help and neither will your little friend the gatekeeper.You find how to unlock the information and iris will stay alive.
Oh and we planted that little thing about the football pitch.We hear that the gatekeeper is on his way over there right now.Soon we will have him and there will be no hope for you and the rest of your colony.The Dark Path will soon be in the open.
Black Cats
I emailed the gatekeeper to let him know but instantly got this
Quote:
Your message could not be sent.
PDA off
Darn

New post as the last one was getting huge and this one is about Iris Eye instead
Thinking he was about the only person left to turn to I sent him a message saying that i didn't believe him, thought the blog was a fake and that he should start telling me more if he wanted my trust again. It's fair to say he didn't take this too well...
Quote:
I DID NOT MAKE THAT BLOG.YOU I KNOW HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE SAC.TRUST MY ASS.YOU BETRAYED ME.YOUR JUST LIKE THE REST OF THEM.I SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN SACKED!
I tried to calm him down
Quote:
Woah, hold on. It's just that I've only heard one side of the story. If it helps, I never once contacted the gatkeeper. He contacted me and I thought considering the situation it was only fair to give him some of the information he required. It seems that what he said about your dismissal was the truth so I then trusted him when he said the blog was a fake. Since that time he has gotten himself into quite a bit of trouble (if it makes you feel better, i think i helped) When/if ever you feel like telling someone your side of the story, I'll be ready to listen.
Which seems to have worked
Quote:
Ok ok.The SAC is real.It stands for Secret American Conspiracies.Why I don't know but I do want to find out.The reason I don't know is because my memory was allways wiped after a mission.You see I used to work there until I was accused of trying to open the gate.The gate is the only way that the missions can succeeed.It is a portal,a teleporter.That is all I know except that Iris knows where the gate goes.She also knows what it is used for.Iris was chosen for this job because of her father, Michael Brandon, later called the Gatekeeper.This was because he opens the Gate.Iris has the information stored because she is the hardest to break.Only one person knows how to access that information.Who well no one knows!
So now what?

I was just about to say that Strategic Air Command has nothing to do with this, but Brat beat me to it.
However, I can tell you this much: Iris's last name is Brandon.

Latest emails from the front
Sent:
Quote:
Ok, I'll level with you. An organisation called the Black Cats have Iris. I don't know where they are but their website is at citystreet.moonfruit.com. They tricked the Gatekeeper into heading to Holland and he's on his way now where he will no-doubt be captured.
Thes Black Cats are trying to get the information from Iris' mind so they can share it with the world and reveal all of the SACs secrets. They also mention that they are in charge of the Dark Awakening and that the Dark Path will soon be open. They seem to want my help with this but there is no way I will concede. Partly because they are clearly not to be trusted and in the wrong and partly because I wouldn't know where to start anyway. Do you know anything about any of this and do you have any idea what to do next?
Recieved:
Quote:
They want the gate.As much as I dislike Michael,sorry the gamekeeper, we must warn him.Have you tried contact him?I'm sure the dark path has something to do with opening the gates secrets.Iris is the key to the gate
Sent an email asking about the countdown and whether it would be worth asking another of the 'true searchers' for help
Recieved:
Quote:
The true searchers would be sworn to secrecy.You would not be allowed to know of their identity.Regarding the countdown.That is the amount of time left to retrieve the information from Iris' mind.You see the mind only has a certain capacity.When more information comes in the hidden stuff is thrown out.The only way of renewing this is by going through the gate again.That is why every full moon Iris goes through the gate.The Gatekeeper is desperate to get her through and if I know Iris as well as love goes, well that is also what she wants.If not for herself for her father.
Also The Place has updated to say that they have the gatekeeper:
Quote:
The Gatekeeper has arrived through something called the Gate. We have him now. There is no hope left.
The following is a YIM conversation I had with a member of the BlackCats calling himself Garlo. It's a followup to one he started yesterday. Unfortunately I couldn't save yesterday's but it didn't really contain much. Basically it was about him wanting my help to unlock Iris' mind. I basically said I didn't know how but we couldn't properly finish it off.
Quote:
city_streat: You wanted to continue this conversation?
brat_sampson: yes, I wasn't sure if we really finished yesterdsy
city_streat: No where near
brat_sampson: all I can tell you is that I heard only one person has the knowlege to unlock Iris' mind and that I don't know who that is
city_streat: You?
brat_sampson: absolutely not, I only heard about all this a short time ago
city_streat: We are on level grounds there
brat_sampson: how did you find out about this then? All that you've done so far must have taken considerable planning
city_streat: I was contacted by a member of SAC.I was told that the information an innocent mother called Iris held in her mind would shake the world and lead to the dark awakening.Something my organization has been trying to do for some time.
brat_sampson: Is it safe to assume you now have the gatekeeper in your custody?
city_streat: Yes.Do you want to talk to him?
brat_sampson: would you let me if I asked?
city_streat: Certainly.He has allready spoken to another of your kind
brat_sampson: I was just making sure, I would not want to lose you trust just yet as I'm trying to keep all things in balence until I can make an informed descision
brat_sampson: Ok, let me speak with him. I suppose the least I can do is apologise.
city_streat: Network Change--------------------GK Cell 45
city_streat: Hello?
brat_sampson: hello? Is this the gatekeeper?
city_streat: Yes.Who would this be
brat_sampson: as proof, tell me your real name
city_streat: Michael Brandon sir
brat_sampson: secondly, is this line secure or are we being monitored?
city_streat: The latter
brat_sampson: I assumed so.
brat_sampson: It's me, brat-sampson
brat_sampson: the one who unfortunately got you into this situation in the first place
city_streat: Brat.I don't blame you for what happened.It was my fault
city_streat: 01000011011000010110111000100000010010010010000001110011011001010110111001100100001000000111100101
101111011101010010000001100001001000000110011001101001011011000110010100111111
city_streat: Binary
city_streat: The main computer cant read it
city_streat: i must go
city_streat: I shall be back in about 2 hours
city_streat: Garlo.Thats enough.We will talk soon
The binary reads: can i send you a file? Unfortunately, just after that, they cut me off.
Conclusions: 1. Iris is a mother ( ) and 2 SAC has a mole...
