If Gdogg628 is several years old, like Mark told me, then I think they've done an excellent job of blurring the lines


I just used a google search for Gdogg628 and found it on someone's forum profile where they registered in 2004 -- that doesn't mean the AIM nick is that old, just that an existing person on the internet has it as their IM today.

Quote:
[10:04] MY SCREEN NAME: who is Gdogg628?
[10:05] NephilimsMessiah: Gdogg628?
[10:08] NephilimsMessiah: It's Greg. Who no one has talked to at all since at least 2004.


This is confirmed by the profile i found which says his name is Greg.

whew, I can stop editing.

That was wild, with the pics and all.

OK, PandoraLeviathan updated his profile with a quote "Mistform Dragon: i'm...uhm...something's wrong with me". I asked him who that is and he said it's Darron's friend, and he'll freak out of someone randomly messages him. Unfortunately, he's not on.

Damien says he's gonna have Darron come on and IM me. That should be fun.

Also, Catherwood, that's cool that Gdogg628 really is from 2004, it seems. I don't know what to think right now... Is this some kind of game that someone is making out of their own life, or has this been in development for quite a while, or... Greggyboy has a few thousand posts... I for one don't want to go read them all, but I'll skim.
======================

OK, Mistform Dragon.

... i don't know if this is important, but what the hey.

xanga leads to
--> http://www.fictionpress.com/~zacharyreiner
which leads to
--> http://myspace.com/zacharyreiner

This seems too real... but then, again, why was the screen name in the info, if we're not supposed to find it? I don't know what to think.

Mark sent me this, this morning -

I would decipher, but have like a thousand other things to catch up on first Wink

I wonder how

j y k t y v k y b b e z u 7

relates to

v k w f k h w k n n q l g 7 |

I'm not too good at this kind of thing, unless I know what I'm looking at.

They are the same thing - just different letters used.

Code:

j y k t y v k y b b e z u 7
a b c d b e c b f f g h i 7
 
v k w f k h w k n n q l g 7
a b c d b e c b f f g h i 7

OK, now where are we supposed to use that? good catch that it's the same pattern, by the way.

GDogg628 just signed online. I talked to him, but when I said that I'm a friend of Mark and Damien's, he signed off.

Or maybe blocked me.

I'm really confused about where the ingame/outofgame line is here. Greg didn't seem to want to talk about them AT ALL, so are they real and he has a beef with them, or... I mean, I could see if we had to socially engineer info out of him, but to just block me completely?

I'm lost. Anyone?

Maybe he is part of the circle that ends?


Last night Mark said to me, "To acquire more information, you must find a circle that ends." He said he is a piece that broke off.

He said he lost his life - his social life when the circle ended. He's still within orbits, though - on a circle right outside the one he was once a part.

He said it all mirrors a solar system, a universe or an atom.

The first orbit -> damien darron amelia ryan <S>tom and elise -- the adhesive, so to speak.

He said he wants us to find the Dark Truths.


The circle of friends which ended because of these Dark Truths?
Damien, Darron, Amelia, Ryan, Tom (deceased) and Elise. And Mark. And what about Paul ? Mark said that he wasn't really a friend. And Darron laughed when he learned Paul was dead, so....

Color Legend:

At the same time, I was talking with Damien. He was giving me info about Greg and the stuff Greg was saying. So... umm... here's the chat. Sorry I didn't summarize, because I don't know what to make of this.

Quote:
[16:09] PandoraLeviathan: I understand you're talking to Greg?
[16:09] myscreenname: ... yeah
[16:09] myscreenname: how did you know?
[16:10] myscreenname: he says you're all dead...
[16:10] PandoraLeviathan: He IMed me
[16:11] myscreenname: really?
[16:11] myscreenname: that's odd... I thought you hadn't spoken to him in years?
[16:11] PandoraLeviathan: He IMed me because random people are IMing him saying things about me.
[16:12] myscreenname: well, I was mostly talking about Mark
[16:12] myscreenname: I just said I knew you
[16:12] myscreenname: ... is it true you're all dead? lol
[16:13] PandoraLeviathan: Yeah.
[16:13] PandoraLeviathan: lol
[16:14] PandoraLeviathan: He's making stuff up based on what he knows, which is next to nothing
[16:15] myscreenname: ah
[16:15] myscreenname: is the college video shoot true?
[16:16] PandoraLeviathan: It was a horror film, I think
[16:17] PandoraLeviathan: About a school built on the grounds of a destroyed mental hospital. Mark used Eva Ridge as the basis for it.
[16:17] myscreenname: Greg says you were actually at the school built on the grounds of Eva Ridge
[16:21] PandoraLeviathan: Greg also says we all died
[16:21] myscreenname: true... true
[16:22] PandoraLeviathan: And he refers to "Butch."
[16:22] myscreenname: yeah
[16:22] PandoraLeviathan: Who doesn't even exist.
[16:22] PandoraLeviathan: Actually, that was Tom's character.
[16:23] PandoraLeviathan: Damn... I haven't even thought about this stuff in a while now
[16:24] myscreenname: sorry for dredging up old memories
[16:24] myscreenname: ... he says he doesn't know you
[16:24] myscreenname: or ryan
[16:24] PandoraLeviathan: Greg?
[16:25] myscreenname: yeah
[16:25] PandoraLeviathan: What a douche.
[16:25] myscreenname: umm ok
[16:26] PandoraLeviathan: Didn't I say not to message him?
[16:26] PandoraLeviathan: lol
[16:27] myscreenname: no you said not to message Zachary
[16:31] PandoraLeviathan: Sorry, I should have told you Greg would just pull things from his arse to throw at you.
[16:31] myscreenname: oh
[16:31] myscreenname: eh, no problem
[16:33] PandoraLeviathan: How'd you get his screen name, even?
[16:33] myscreenname: it was in mark's info

i hate this game more and more as it progresses.....


what is the point?

it's just pointless AIM conversations.

the "puzzles", when solved, serve very little in progressing/adding information.

anyways...ill stick around for a little longer...but im getting sick of reading everyone else's aim conversations :p

Wow. The first post on this game was yesterday at 2:13 pm, and here a whole 24 hrs and 50 min later, you are complaining it doesn't unfold fast enough. Rolling Eyes

i agree that it is early to be "complaining" but am I the only one that finds this kind of weird and tiresome?
