Wow.

So, I've looked through my comments, and I've looked all over the web... and frankly, I'm a little blown away...

I've already got a problem with my videos!!


This may be recap for those of you at the bleeding edge of the story - but, before my blog even went live, my first video was out there, all over the web, for EVERYONE to see. ...(etc.)

I think mel0drama might be a troll.

I don't know, but there's a point where they seem to be drawing out the conversation to a stupid degree that it can't possibly be part of the game.

Funny. PMs can think of anything to make all this advertising plausible.

But whatever, as long as they don't start putting Sprite and Jeep ads in the beginning of the videos.

At least they were somewhat apologetic about all the ads...

*shrug* I don't care, either way. We're the folks (as in: the players) who bitched and moaned because they weren't acknowledging the video's existence In-Game, and now that they are, and actually trying to roll with those punches, the advertising seems completely acceptable for me.

Added: Anyone else getting really annoyed by these comments? Not the Rachel and Mel one, but everything else? I haven't sat around watching the Speaker or the other Official blogs, but the comments in this are ridiculous. Trolls, people trying to mislead, it's horrible.

Mel0Drama:
Rachel... I don't know if you really look through all these
threads, but if you do, I NEED to talk to you.

Mel:
>>Rachel... I don't know if you really look through all these
>>threads, but if you do, I NEED to talk to you.
>>Hello?
Rachel? Hi? Hello?

Rachel Blake:Hey, Mel0Drama - what's up?

Mel:Call me Mel.

RB:What's up, Mel?

Mel:Nobody ever listens to me. This is stupid.

RB:I just looked back through the posts. You say you NEED to talk. About what? you got info on Hanso? Mittelwerk?

Mel:No... not really. I can't specifically link either of them...

RB:So... what, Mel? Girlfriend problems? Need a stock tip?

Mel:Don't. make. fun. of. me.

RB:This conversation is about ten seconds from over.

Mel:He's in our heads, Rachel.

RB:Who is?

Mel:Hackett. Dr. Hackett.

RB:Okay... I've never heard of a Dr. Hackett.

Mel:I used to work for him. He's here, with the rest of them. In Atlanta. At the EDC. They sneak it in, we lap it up. I have proof!

RB:Mel, it's been fascinating. Truly.

Mel:WAIT!! You need safe passage for your videos. You said so yourself. Places you can hide them. Places THEY can't find them. I have a place. Nobody can get to it but ME. I have all the keys. Your videos will be safe for all to see.

RB:What are you talking about?

Mel:I work in the archive of the Engineering Development Center. It was a punishment. I asked Hackett too many questions. But he never could have guessed... the ARCHIVE was the last place he should have sent me to work. I have the proof. The DOCUMENTS are all there. Sealed in a vault. Untouched by human hands. Ready to convict. And, I need you to help me expose them.

RB:So, why don't you just post your evidence here and get done with it?

Mel:BECAUSE NOBODY BELIEVES ME. They have to see for themselves. They have to see the documents. Sitting in the company vault. On the company mainframe. Please.
It's a fair exchange.

RB:What is?

Mel:I'll hide your video, secure it for your users to access online. Password-protected. On a CORPORATE mainframe. Untouchable. All you have to do is tell your followers to go to my archive portal and hear my story... once they do, I'll place your video in the archive vault. They can watch it through my portal!

RB:No. Here's how I work. You host my video, keep it secure.
If I'm satisfied people can see it, that The Hanso Foundation can't hack it, that YOU'RE not part of the Foundation yourself, THEN I'll put the word out to my friends to check out your "evidence" about Hackett and whatever the heck you think he's doing. Deal?

Mel:... Deal.

As someone said, it seems far too scripted to just be a troll. I guess we'll find out in the next few days or weeks if anything has come of it

Seems less troll-like when it's compiled like that.

Confused

Did anyone else look for, and find, Rachels Blog on Saturday?

I only ask because there has been some changes since then. There where more entries, (from memory, didn't realise it would all be gone two days later Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad) - Iceland (mentions going to Vik), San Remo Italian Riviera, Paris (mentions a list of tourist spots (Eiffel tower etc. )) maybe Spain.

The following links are from my internet history (all inactive) -
http://tacosalad-rachel.blogspot.com/
http://tacosalad-rachel.blogspot.com/2006/06/
http://tacosalad-rachel.blogspot.com/2006/06/iceland.html
http://tacosalad-rachel.blogspot.com/2006/06/sanremo-italian-riviera.html
http://tacosalad-rachel.blogspot.com/2006/06/copenhagen-denmark.html
http://tacosalad-rachel.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_tacosalad-rachel_archive.html

One of these, Paris, had two comments - one from AlohaPrincess http://www.blogger.com/profile/23834922 who said 'have fun'? or some other banality.

The other was from Administrator http://www.blogger.com/profile/7838451 - who said 'be safe Rachel' - Maybe someone should ask him if there is a reason for the loss of the destinations?

Denmark also had a comment from Yakobus1 http://www.blogger.com/profile/24540122

Apart from Administrator, could the other two be in-game? Both created in May 2006 and both with blogs that can't be found.

I'm confused as to why they would change the Blog so soon after releasing it and taking out the details listing her following of Alvar Hanso's last known route.
