Good morning to you, Heather.

I woke up with a "feeling" today. Something was telling me that we
might recieve a message from Patricia Moore (Cathy Kuttner now) and
Dwin (Kevin). I know they are packing today to leave, but I have a
feeling they may call us from the road with their goodbye. If I get
any more feelings about this, I will let you know.

We will speak again in the very near future.

One final email exchange with T. "Peeps" Walker...

I wrote:

Peeps,

I just wanted to write a quick note to say that I am glad that you are safe and are making plans to move on with your new ordinary life. Even though I didn't agree with all of your actions (or inactions), no one deserves to have their freedom taken away from them due to reasons they cannot control. I also think that you and I both feel that maybe, just maybe, Mr. Alan Johnson forgave you and the Walkers just before he died. Mr. Johnson needed peace from his inner demons. It was those demons, and the spectre of his his unhappy childhood, that prevented him from doing the right thing even when he wanted to. I hope that he has found that peace.

Peace to you too.

Dante

Peeps wrote:

Hello Dante,

Thank you for your kind note.

I do agree with you. I believe Mr. Johnson, my brother, Alan, was truly sorry. When he asked me, Thomas, to forgive him, his eyes were very gentle and he seemed full of remorse. This is not something I have, in the many years that I had known him, ever seen. I do believe my brother would have liked to been able to do the right thing and to change from wrong to right, but his state of mind did not allow it. I know many people in this world have many reasons to hate Mr. Alan Johnson, but I cannot. I want to remember his wit and his charm. I have forgiven him. And I have him to thank for teaching me about true forgiveness.

I know you meant a great deal to my brother. He was quite sincere when he asked me to tell you, "Goodbye". Mr. Alan Johnson's last day was full of him speculating and planning his wedding. You were a big part of his plans. You were, in the end, his only friend. Thank you for being a friend to him, Dante. Even the bad guy needs someone to be there for them.

And thank you again for taking the time out of your very busy life to stop and help an ordinary man, me, and a not so ordinary man, my brother, Mr. Alan Johnson. As my brother would say, Cheers to you, Dante! Cheers to our World!

A final message from Jen Moulin. I sent this:

Quote:

Dear Jean,

Now that the world has been saved I guess we won't have many opportunities to talk. I just wanted to thank you for all the help you gave the Sammeeeees and for protecting Mrs. Paul Foucher. You are a brave and handsome knight and I will never forget you. Please have a happy and handsome life.

Love,
Dashcat

Jean replied:

Hello to you, Dashing Dashcat!!!!! I am still the One and the Only Jean Moulin! Yes, I will wander on into my new life and be very, very handsome and very, very brave! I would like to thank you, too, for helping me with Mrs. Paul Foucher. I know she became very fond of you. How could she not? You are the One and the Only Dashing Dashcat! I hope for you all the beauty and the happiness in our new world without Spoocheeeee! You and the Sammeeeees saved the five and the world! We all thank you! I was thinking last night, Dashing Dashcat, about our statue. It makes me weep when I think about how handsome and beautiful we will all be! I was thinking maybe our horses should be rearing up! It will make us seem like the mighty good hearted warriors that we are!!!!!
Please take care my beautiful friend. Thank you again to you and the Sammeeeees for being so helpful, brave and very handsome!
I am the One and the Only
Jean Moulin

I am really going to miss Jean Moulin most of all

Message from Cathy and Kevin

Quote:

Good afternoon to you, Carol.

Sometimes a "feeling" is more than a "feeling". I just received
word that Cathy Kuttner and Kevin left the Sammeeeees a message.

http://www.gabcast.com/index.php?a=episodes&id=5587

I hope we do meet again in the not too distant future.

goodbye from Cathy and Kevin... after you listen to this, please go to christmaseve1956.blogspot.com

Our story began on Christmas Eve 1956 and it ends with you.
I would like to formally thank all the Sammeeeees. This has been an amazing few months. Your response to the story and the characters in the story was wonderful. You took us down avenues that not only made the story richer, but also better. This story and the ARG was plotted out a great deal before launch. I had worked on it for a year and half, but there was a lot that was created off of your choices and your feelings. I also had a few endings prepared, but in the end it was up to all of you and your decisions as to where it would all lead to and finally resolve. This process was exhilarating for me as a writer! Thanks for NOT being audience. Each of you played an enormous part in the life of the story.

I would like to thank my amazing cast! You were all so supportive and creative and fabulous, makes me melt! Smile

How lucky am I to have so many buds that happen to be some of the best character actors around?! Without you guys, this would not have been possible!

I want to thank Space Bass and unfiction for hosting our story. And thanks, Space, for making the launch so full of suspense. You were great for doing all that work. You rock.

And finally, there is the gang known to we behind the curtain as the Sammeeeee posse! You all were more than amazing! You truly became characters in our drama (sometimes comedy). It was wonderful to have you all along with us. You know who you are..... but we would like to mention you anyway. Heather (our fearless leader), Dante, Sallyyyyy, Jenna, Enaxor, Tess, Drizabella, Dashcat, Mapmaker, Randomeis, Red Hatty, Celina, Katya, Axys Denyed, Jetamo, Mountain Girl, Ariel, Grumpy boy, and Esteed. (if we forgot anyone we apologize - let us know and we will add them to our grand list)

I had not really thought I would do a chat. I do like the mystery behind story-telling and ARGs, but if this is something the Sammeeeees would like, please email me. I would be more than happy to hang out and chat about our journey together. We could pop a bottle of champagne and toast to the end of Spoocheeeee! Cheers to us! Smile

You can reach me on UF via a pm to my account. (labfly)

Cathy Kuttner and Kevin- On the Road
transcript of their gabcast

Quote:

Cathy: Hi, Sammeeeees! Kevin and I are on highway 40. I think we just passed by the area where Jack and George, the twins, used to live. It's wild and beautiful out here and we wanted to call and thank you all for helping us. We could never had had this happy ending without every one of you. um. Kevin and I are headed back East. I don't know where we will settle but I'm thinking somewhere in Massachusetts or New Hampshire and yes(?) we just spoke to Peeps, or Thomas, it'll be hard to call him Thomas, anyhow, Thomas has invited Kevin and I to spend Christmas with he and his family in Amherst. It should be a wonderful holiday for everyone this year. And one more thing before I go, I want to thank you Heather. I saw your video. You go girl! That was very brave of you to go out there without White Rose protection. You're an amazing woman. Thanks for being a good friend to me, as well. Oh, OK. Hold on. Kevin wants to say hi.

Kevin: Hey, Sammeeeees. It's me Kevin. I just wanted to say, um, thanks for everything. Thanks for saving the Five, and the world, and Peeps. I can't believe we did it. We destroyed Spoocheeeee! I'll never forget you guys and what you did for my mom and me. And after everything calms down and we get settled and stuff in our new home you may catch me playing a game, so keep an eye out for Dwin.

Cathy: Give me the phone.

Kevin: I, I gotta go. Bye, Sammeeeees.

Cathy: uh. Me again. If you do see Dwin on any of the game forums, will you please email me immediately. He's only fourteen and he gets so involved in these games. Ya know, I worry what might happen. After all, I am his mother. I better go now, we need gas. Take care, Sammeeeees. Bye.

[2:47am] <Mapmaker> there are still unresolved questions.....
[2:47am] <xnbomb> ain't there always
[2:47am] <Mapmaker> such as the disappearance of Mr Abbott
[2:48am] <Mapmaker> there has never ever been an ARG with unresolved questions
[2:48am] <xnbomb> some would say it is realistic
[2:48am] <xnbomb> that not all loose ends in life are sewn up at any point in time
[2:48am] <Mapmaker> I, of course, kid
[2:48am] <xnbomb> this is actually being debated in some meta thread

[2:49am] <Mapmaker> I am a vaporlofts veteran
[2:49am] <xnbomb> just how much closure is good
[2:53am] <Mapmaker> well, part of it is that I can't exactly tell what happened in the critical moments
[2:54am] <Mapmaker> I can discern that AJ fell on his knife
[2:54am] <Mapmaker> while going to get the gun
[2:54am] <Mapmaker> with Dwin in tow
[2:54am] <Mapmaker> and there was much screaming
[2:55am] <Mapmaker> I was also expecting to hear a Shakespearean quote out of AJ with his final breaths :-/
[2:57am] <Mapmaker> A+ on the gun-sliding-across-the-floor sound effect
[3:01am] * Mapmaker waits for the (presumed) Epilogue
[3:02am] <Mapmaker> filling in such plot holes as
[3:02am] <Mapmaker> How will Dwin catch up on his homework?
[3:03am] <Mapmaker> Should I take the elevator tomorrow?
[3:03am] <Mapmaker> How freaked out with Higgs be after reading his Myspace messages from Kona?
[3:04am] <Mapmaker> Can Addison & Keely get a real web page for their company?
[3:06am] <Mapmaker> Should I be worried that there are now thousands of newly-unemployed highly-trained ruthless killers?
[3:07am] <Mapmaker> What kind of person spells Jane with a Y?
[3:07am] <Mapmaker> Can Spoocheeeee headquarters be flipped and rezoned to lofts, or would they not sell in this kind of housing market?
[3:08am] <Mapmaker> Why won't the Smithsonian return my calls about an ancient disk that has recently become available?
