From Lucy's profile:
Quote:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The habit of perception was so automatic for Lucy that her conscious mind barely registered the clues: the parade rest stance, the gun holstered on the wrong hip, the faint medicinal smell of dandruff shampoo, the pale band of skin still showing on his left ring finger, and the hundred other little tells that gave him away. What grabbed her conscious attention was that he was wearing fine-grained black leather gloves. She didn't know for sure what the gloves meant, but they made his hands look awfully big, and she was guessing they weren't a good sign.
Okay, so
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
if the man was wearing gloves, how could she see the pale band of skin on his left ring finger
?

I saw an ad for this on Gamefaqs.com. That makes me think that it's a commercial thing. I found it, and I'm not religiously into ARGs (though I obviously know what they are and stuff - and from ilovebees ), so somebody is obviously trying to get that out.
Any clue what it's promoting? I've found at least three references to cell phone networks failing, so perhaps it's an ad for vonage or skype or something like that.

Got invited to a private table by thedealer at 7:30 pacific time. Told that any other high-rollers I could get ahold of should show too.
Just to let you guys know.

I find myself rapidly becoming addicted to poker. Should I be worried?

Okay, so there was this private table thing, and I cleaned up there. That's not the point. thedealer and hikerd00d were there. thedealer just kept saying that hikerd00d had all the info I needed. So I wrung hikerd00d out and got that he's dead.
He was hiking on some mountains and got stuck, didn't have any cell phone service because 'of that hacker kid' and died. Now he really wants to know who 'that hacker kid' is.
That's really all I've got. That and thedealer is one creepy guy.

So where did you guys find all these profiles from? I mean, I got all the obvious ones, but there's a couple that I have no idea what the origin is. Like that preacher guy.
