Whoa! That message is crazy! I figure he says something like "If you want to play this game, leave your name, number and a brief message"

So who's the first brave soul? I have to admit I backed out of leaving my number... but then again, I'm in Europe and I don't want to wake up in the middle of the night to THAT CREEPY VOICE!

Judging by the fact that it only rings once before going right to the answering machine, I'm guessing that this is a one way street. We can leave messages for Keymaker, but I don't think we'll be able to talk to him one on one. (All of that voice modulation might be difficult to do live.)

So, what do we do with this number? (Other than leaving sarcastic messages, of course. Razz )

So James, you're taking the sarcastic message angle....I'm going for the alright...we're calling, pick up the phone angle....

I don't know if i want to leave a number tho.....yikes. although...i suppose I could deal with leaving my cell number. It might be exciting to get a call from this guy when I'm out with my friends...who knows what will come out of my mouth then.

WHo else is calling? and should we keep calling or is once enough?


EDIT: and ten bucks to whoever records him/herself leaving this message: "aaaah, yes....this is the gatekeeper speaking, are you the Keymaster?"

You know hyex (can I call you hyex), Keymaster does sort of sound like that nasty she-demon from Ghostbusters that they meet at the top of the building, who asks them "Are You a God?", and when they reply "no", she starts chanting all this really dark crap and summons The Destroyer in the form of, of all things, a giant marshmallow man. Just thinking about the ridiculousness of it all is making me chuckle right now.

HAHA, maybe i'll leave a message tonight that says "there is no keymaker, only ZUUL!!!!"


EDIT: I just called again and have come to the conclusion that I don't understand a word of the message except "name number after the beep" and then HEH HEH HEH HEH HEH!!!!

You know I alway wondered if I needed therapy because I thought she was sexy when she was possessed...

that's my weakness for bad girls I guess.

On the whole leaving a number thing I'm really not up for that. I'd do it for a professionally run ARG like PXC, but when it's low level like this, nah I'll pass.

That's ok, the message in the pic was the phine number.


I'm arguing with myself about leaving a phone number....I'm moving out of the country in a few months, so I guess it won't hurt

Heh. You know, the message actually reminds me of the creepy little mannequin clown dude in SAW. "Would you like to play a game?!" Either that, or the Joker.

ZOMG. Jack Nicholson is the Keymaker!

I think I'll go back to that pirate chat room. Maybe Hunter/Jason has some new info for us.

And Hyexistenz - thanks for the laugh. I needed that. Very Happy

Had this conversation with jason earlier:

Quote:
Hunter What's going on?
Hyexistenz alright alright....i called the keymaker
Hyexistenz yikes
Hyexistenz he's scary
Hunter yeah.... got a weird call from Keymaker
Hyexistenz another one?
Hunter yeah.... he is "enjoying his new friends".....
Hyexistenz when did you get it? tonight?
Hunter and "timmy's dead" or something like that
Hunter Yeah..... like 3 hrs ago....
Hunter oh he also said "Keep them comming, I have found my Mount Vernon" ...... ish......
Hunter What... I dont know......
Hyexistenz huh? very odd
Hyexistenz have you had any luck getting in touch with trent?
Hunter Yeah..... he wants to borrow the other papers........
Hunter He's well quiet.... not like him......
Hyexistenz what do you mean?
Hunter Weird........ very .....cold......
Hyexistenz trent?
Hunter Yeah


then, i got this email from keymaker:

package_tracker

get to the next key beforehand, k?


My game is not as amusing anymore.


So I went here:

And discovered the town that I live in on the source page. Sort of freaked about this...but I guess you can get that info from the phone number i stupidly didn't block before I called the keymaker. I guess it wouldn't hurt to leave my address and phone number now.

So who here lives in the twin cities?

If you google Mount Vernon it takes you to a site for George Washington's estate.

Don't really see how if fits in this context though?

EDIT> The countdown takes us to midnight on Thursday (GMC)

But...but...but...I BLOCKED MY NUMBER! Shocked

Drats. Foiled again! Well, bravo, people in charge. I don't know how, but you've managed to figure out the general area I live in. As for the "Timmy is dead." comment, that's referring to one of the messages I left Keymaker. Something along the lines of...

"Just calling to see how you're doing. How are the kids? Is little Timmy getting any better?"
