 		[POKER]Game 11-08(And a chance to win a free copy of Gun!)
You heard right. Found this news on IGN:
IGN wrote:
On November 8th at 7:00pm PST our own Ivan "Hot Pie" Sulic will take on Neversoft guru Scott "Neversoft - Always Hard" Pease in a private no crapping or crying game of Texas Hold 'Em at Last Call Poker.com. Other participants will include Neversoft and 42 Entertainment folk. Buy-in will be something absurd, like a hundred million Dinars.

Check out the article for information on how to win a free copy of Gun.

 		Pretty cool. I'll be at work, so I hope its slow and I can pay attention Smile

But given that the e-mails from lcp seem to hit some people earlier than others, I don't imagine this is going to be an equal opportunity contest.

 		Not that it matters now, but the email address given out by Hot_Pie (aka Ivan? from IGN) was ps2_mailSPLATign.com, and the subject was "Give Me Gun"

Supposedly they will contact the winners tomorrow.

Apart from that bit of information, Ned White also gave some information to Hickock. This appears to be a hint to a cache of weapons in the game Gun.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
nedwhite: get some dynamite from the mine under the large mesa in the Badlands
nedwhite: take it to the old house ruins near there
jamesbutlerhickok: Yes, I know the house.
nedwhite: put the barrel of tnt up against the outside of the chimney
stand back and shoot the barrel

 		They went through that routine twice, so it must be important.
I hope someone got the chat logged, but did hollister ever say anything of interest?

 		I recorded the hand. but those IGN fools completely made a mess of it. I sent out the email immediately after it was given, (about 1.5 seconds) so I may have gotten a copy, but now I don't know if I really want it. I want to start tommorrow and look for that ammo dump. I have a feeling that LCP will unravel with GUN for a few weeks.

 		My EB Games did not get their shipment yesterday. But the manager is now very interested in ARGs and LCP.

I wonder if that clue in the game is for getting the Secret of the Safe?

So, if you weren't at the game last night, might as well not send the email?

 		Yeah, I believe there were plenty of submissions within 15 seconds of it getting announced to the table.

 		Secret of the Safe
I doubt that this is the secret of the safe for a couple of reasons:

1. The website mentions that you must find Hollister (the Sergeant?), but this doesn't mention Hollister at all.

2. The secret of the Safe is going to result in a code that can be used on LCP. Dan said that this trick will lead to a cache of weapons and ammunition.

I suppose I will find out tomorrow. (U2 tonight!)

 		my money's on the secret of the safe being printed on something in the game case, so as to keep it unique for each player. Just a few hours till I find out for sure!

Especially since this mentions neither a safe nor hollister.

I do like that we're getting secrets for the game in the ARG, its very cool.
