 		New email to Eva from Keir
http://www.evamcgill.co.uk/email/kj10.html

Quote:
From: Keir Jones | Subject: Sorry

I'm afraid so. I just don't know how they tracked you. It goes back further than SRI but I can't say where yet. I'm so sorry Eva. I'm doing everything I can for you.

Which was Keir's response to Eva's question (see above post) http://www.evamcgill.co.uk/email/em9.html

FROM:Eva McGill to Keir Jones | Subject: Is it true?

Are you sure it's Prof. Wilson??? How did they know everywhere I shopped at Christmas? I didn't always use my credit card, I used cash!

 		What are we thinking?
drizjr, updated the Story So Far tonight. As I was reading over it a thought came to me as I read the email from Professor Wilson to Eva, more specifically the part in bold below.

Quote:
Dearest Eva,

Don't worry about not finishing your assignment, it was a means to an end.

Eva, I have been looking at your blog and I have read the messages from your friends. I can see what you are going through. My dear girl, I am sorry. I've known this day would come for many years and please believe me, I have been dreading it. I will try to come up with a way of helping you more in two days time. Please take care of yourself.

Yours,

Bryan Wilson


I don't think we should leave important stuff on her comments any more.

drizjr suggested, and i agree, we only leave comments to support her and if needed to misdirect Prof. Wilson.

All other contact with Eva should be done via email.

Did we mess up? I hope not. But we must be more discrete from here on.

Side note: I wonder what is going to happen in two (now one) days time.

 		Although you say to leave out important information in the comment space on Eva's blog, and I concur, people will still do this.
Either because they haven't read this or they've decided to do so anyway.

Consider this:
Keir Jones is possibly helping Eva and he doesn't want anyone to find out who he is. He also didn't want anyone other than Eva to find out about the "ipcressfile" webpage, which obviously we had to find. When we did find it we posted the webpage onto a PUBLIC website (Eva's blog) which is a serious error since we don't trust Prof. Bryan Wilson and the SRI.

Keir then sent a password protected .zip file which we were meant to crack, but then we posted the bloody password on the blog!
Think about it, if this was a real life scenario who would do that?!

I request that we first consider our actions through this forum (Not IRC because not everyone is online at the time of discussion) before posting sensitive information.

Now I'm not trying to cause offence to anyones intelligence, but ARG's is a game that's meant to simulate real life consequences. If we post information that's obviously going to, for instance, uncover Keir to the wrong people; things will seriously go tits up.

Sorry for the long post and the serious lack of basic grammar Razz

In the section ive highlighted above, do you think that the 'means to an end' that Prof Wilson is talking about is getting Eva to drink the Youshi...perhaps 'they' needed Eva to ingest the contents of Youshi as part of the tracking/experimentation/insertappropriatewordhere that they are doing on Eva?

I think the PMs wanted us to do this--obviously, it's a huge blow to us, but I imagine it's written in (or at least planned for).

Regardless, I agree. We definitely need to start being more careful from now on. I think I'm going to start a thread regarding potential consequences so we can OK certain "big" things before carrying them out.

 		Bryan Wilson sent this to Eva's private email.
Quote:
Dear Eva,

As you know, your parents and I were very close. When first your father died so suddenly when you were small and then your mother tragically succumed to her long illness, I promised I would take care of you. I have in one way or another been watching your progression all your life and I have seen you grow into a special person. You must know I would not want to cause you any distress. If you look at me more closely you will see the bigger picture; you will find out the truth from there.

Yours truly,

Bryan Wilson.



The puzzle portion has been split off to to this thread.

I just wanted you to see them.

Nothing new or exciting, but keeping the story going.

 		Eva has send an email to Prof. Wilson but will she get an answer? Prof. Wilson seems to be dissapeared.
Quote:
Dear Professor Wilson,

My friends on-line have worked out the clues you left on your photo. This has helped me to look at your private files, I think this is what you wanted me to see. Why did you think you were about to betray me and the memory of my Mum and Dad? I'm so worried for you. Who is funding SRI and forcing you to do things you don't want to do? Have you really resigned?

It's strange for me to see those photos of me as a child, I haven't got any pictures from that time.

I'm wondering what's happened to you - have you gone away to think what to do next? Are you coming back at all? Please get in touch.

Eva.

 		Emails from Eva:



Quote:
Subject: Shall we meet?

Dear Keir,

Haven't heard from you. Are you OK? My foot's got a lot better suddenly and I can't wait to get out of here! Where do you live? Do you want to meet?

It's weird someone took pictures of you. I know it must be really worrying for you but if what I think means anything at all, you don't look quite how I thought you would - you look nice.

Yours

Eva

Subject: Dear Doctor

Dear Dr Francis,

Thank you for sending my bear Voiphe to me and the birthday card from my Mum and Dad - it really brought back a lot of old memories and strong feelings when I saw them again. You say you found them in the house I used to live in when I was little - do you live there now? You also said to contact you if I needed anything. I don't know what kind of doctor you are but certain things have happened recently, I think I've just been depressed but maybe you could give me some advice?

Yours,

Eva.

From: Frankie Francis | Subject: Call Me Frankie




Dear Eva,

I'm so pleased to hear from you. I don't exactly live in your old house in Springs but I've been staying here. It's been empty since you left, did you know that? I hoped you might get some comfort from seeing your old bear again and remembering how much your parents loved you. I'm really concerned - what things are happening to you at the moment? I'm not a medical doctor but you can tell me anything, woman to woman as it were and please call me Frankie. Of course I know you might quite rightly be cautious of a stranger like me but please reply as soon as you can.

With very best wishes,

Frankie Francis.

I think this supports the theory that Eva has a thing for Keir. Certainly not the romance I expected, but whatever. :p Also... We still have the unresolved mystery of how Keir got Eva's private email in the first place. Is he just that good with computers? Or is there something more behind Keir that we don't know about yet? (With his recently revealed connection to Youkin, I'm not sure what to think of him anymore.)

 		I agree Rekidk, I don't know what to think of Keir at this moment either. It's all becoming so convoluted.

Subject: A Date

OK I'll think of something and let you know where and when in a few days. I'd be happy if it was a date. Me, I'm too normal. You're special - to me anyway.

Subject: Something's happening

Keir I'm going totally mad I'm hallucinating or something and I'm really shaky - I need to get out and talk to someone who knows what's going on.

Subject: Next Weekend

That's such a long time away but OK it would be nice to do something on my birthday Sunday 18th. Not that it has to be like a date date or anything but we could at least pretend for a minute that we're normal and having a nice time.

Subject: Ball of light
