Wait a minute, how long ago was the farewell message posted the first time?

EDIT: Never mind I misunderstood he only POSTED in the TCJ thread...

Now...one last question that we need to answer...

The Philosipher: PuppetMaster or gamejack?

I think it was posted today. I made a mistake by not looking at all the data. He most likely stole the images from spacebass.

Why does he have the same images, which he claimed to have scanned himself, that the philosopher uploaded some time back?

To try and clear up a couple of things:

1. The Philoshipher is linking to despoiler.org, where SpaceBass uploaded scans of a letter he received yesterday. Because The Philoshipher attached some old event date to his post doesn't mean it happened a long time ago

2. It's unclear to me what the heck The Philoshipher is trying to say in his post, so you can guess what it means and proceed on those assumptions if you'd like, but it seems pretty unclear to me.

3. Posting on these forums by people that have inside knowledge of a game is a violation of the Terms of Service.

EDIT - Missing word added so sentence makes sense

Yeah, I got that earlier. I thought he posted the same thing on TCJ thread.

I can't tell whether he's a gamejack or the PM.

The spelling mistakes and other cryptics make my think PM, but that's what gamejacks do....

So, then he's a gamejack, eh?

Yeah, i think he's a gamejack, or he he woulda been a lot clearer about what he was trying to say in his post.

I he could have just right out said "Tom Tooman is over, it isn't finished" but he decided to be dumb and cryptic

dumb and cryptic = gamejack

if its a gamejack, yes he stole them. But if he really is the PM, then he prob sent SpaceBass a separate OOG letter explaining it a little bit and asking him to scan it for him

unless this whole letter business is just a new way to start an arg...

I found that Lame Deer, Mt is located at the intersection of I212 and I39. Maybe this is important... maybe not...

Straw grasping, now.

Ok, again. I JUST GOT ONE TOO. That is TWO admins of UF that got random letters from Tom. We are not affiliated with this game, we are not "gamejacking" this game, we are just recipients of letters from some fellow named Tom.

Contained within the letters are the EXACT ITEMS SpaceBass has already posted. Nothing more. No directives.

Finally, this is not the first time people have sent letters/packages to SpaceBass to launch a game. This happens quite often.

Thanks phyzix Smile

And if Spacebass agreed to it, this might get very, very interesting.

Well, earlier we had a discussion about the number 4. there were 4 missing dots in the letter and 4 missing numbers in the barcodes. Plus, somewhere along the lines, morse code translated to 4

4+4+4=12

hence 1212 and the fact that the guys name is 2man could point to the 2 twelves.

Its weird but it might not be important
