I'm frustrated to say the least. Really thought this had promise. Liked the storyline a lot, but there is just not enough to keep me interested here. I don't know, anyone else have any ideas or getting a nibble of any kind?

Time Zones According to the Vamp site...
Quote:
Yes I do reside in Kentucky. So seven here would be 6in the plains, five on the west coast. And so on and so on.
Even though the west coast would actually be 4 (not 5), it appears, from that comment, that Drac is in EDT time.

Just got offline with Drac. Conversation as follows:
Quote:
epiphany_101: Hi...Drac?
Salomslot : Hello Ms....?
epiphany_101: epiphany
Salomslot : Ah
epiphany_101: I sent you the email yesterday hypothesising about the location of Mr May
epiphany_101: But wonder now if I was correct...
Salomslot : You were correct
Salomslot : The first I presume
epiphany_101: In the forest...or the caves?
Salomslot : Forest.
epiphany_101: Aha.
epiphany_101: Thankyou
epiphany_101: I have another question (if I may)...on Mr May's site it says that vampires tend to stay in a pack or in groups...are there more vampires in the forest?
Salomslot : Yes.
epiphany_101: So I take it there will be more activity? Although possibly involving them? Are they all looking for the next person involved in the prophecy?
Salomslot : Yes. She is somewhere in the north. Whcih is where I am leaving for tomorrow.
epiphany_101: How does one become a chosen one? Through birth or circumstance? And is she someone who can stop the ritual?
Salomslot : Circumstance. Yes she is.
epiphany_101: What sort of circumstance (if you don't mind me asking)? Is she aware she is in danger?
epiphany_101: Sorry...we got cut off...What sort of circumstance (if you don't mind me asking)? Is she aware she is in danger?
Salomslot : No, she has no idea.
Salomslot : I really have to get new chains.
Salomslot : He keeps breaking out.
epiphany_101: Hehe...most inconvenient
Salomslot : Yes.
epiphany_101: What will you do with Mr May when you have the girl? If he isn't the one who can stop the ritual, surely he will be useless? Or do all chosen ones have a purpose?
Salomslot : Onlycertain ones
epiphany_101: Is he one of those?
Salomslot : Sorry, I have go.
Salomslot has signed out. (12/07/2005 12:18 p.m.)
Sucks to be the girl, I guess. Looking back I should have asked him whereabouts in the North he's travelling to. I also wonder if we'll be getting another message from Mr May (because he keeps getting out).
The forest reference is essentially what I posted last night:
Quote:
I emailed drac hazarding a guess that he was holding Mr Mays in the woods/forest of either Carter Caves State Resort Park, Daniel Boone National Forest, or Tygart's State Forest (according to http://www.kentuckytourism.com/interestresults.aspx?IntID=11&IntName=Caving these are the forests around Carter Caves where Mr Mays said there had been reported sightings of a pale man).
Game on!

I can answer that one.

I also chatted with Drac. The answer to that question it North Dakota. Even though it really doesn't help us. Unless we can contact someone (maybe Bernard) if he knows of anyone there?

Drac's possible destination According to Vampire history Dracula has been to Devil's Lake, North Dakota. Don't know if this means anything. I'm sure he's been to a lot of places throughout the milleniums...but thought would throw it out there.
Let me know what you think

Googling Devil's Lake & Dracula brings up some interesting points.
According to this site , in 1934 Marvel Comics' "Dracula" ran a storyline where "Dracula bit/slew several people on his ocean cruise to the USA, during which he met Beverly Carpenter. In America, he was drawn to Devil's Lake, North Dakota, where he encountered and opposed the Devil's Heart." More info on the Devil's Heart is here .
Might just be a coincidence, but it's kind of interesting.
North Dakota seems a long way to travel from Kentucky, though

Drac travels... I think I know where this is going. While he is "in ND", we will be able to converse with Mr Mays, who supposedly will have access to the computer again while Drac is gone. That should give us the ability to finally get some information to get this rolling....
Drac, if you're reading this, you need a watch. 7PM EDT is not 8PM MST... I missed you being online again!!!

Well... My initial thought, given what we know already, is that it means "where I am going." But I still can not figure out how to decode it in order to make sure. I've tried many things, including looking at past games to find similar puzzles, but have come up empty.

possible but trout but oh well This may be totally bunk but thought I would throw it out there to see if anyone else had any similiar situations. I received an email from bibleSPLAT tsnpq.com saying that I had been selected to receive a free King James Bible. The website looked legitimate http://usa-bibles.com/?id=6735. Not that I don't get lots of junk mail, but I thought vamp killers...bible...maybe a connection. They are giving me 48 hours to claim my free gift. Any thoughts would be appreciate.

dismiss previous sorry guys. Really jumped the gun on that last post. Complete bunk. It was a survey for all kinds of prescription drugs in order to actually receive the bible. So mass advertising totally oog.
my apologies

Emails Got two more bounce replies today, the following email addresses were no good:

Let's hope Mr. Mays is on tonight, I'm thinking Drac doesn't like to give us any more information than he wants to.
