Sorry, been too busy to do much more than drop in the thread for updates. Not that anything's happened. Anyway, I haven't gotten around to updating the summary. It looks like Coffeebean collated the most recent evidence, so that's a start.

Maybe we can kick the tires a bit. How about emailing Germain and asking for an update on the success of Tristan's mission? He should've have reached J2 several days ago.

Also ask about the change to passwords on the FoF site.

The Despoiler site says it's subject to a modified version of the forum's TOS. PMs and IG characters can post there? Nice to have a wiki-tool/clearinghouse available, but doesn't really help when we have an IG opponent.

There is a website for Mike the Poet, but he's located in Denmark or Sweden--site is in Danish or Swedish, go figure. Domain registered in '06, for that matter. Probably unaffiliated.

There's also a spoken word artist called Mike the Poet in L.A. Apparently his most famous work is called "I'm alive in L.A.". He has a myspace page.

Maybe they're just calling the prelude over in preparation for the release of act 1 or whatever they want to call it.

They took down the links to the Appendix and Prelude from overwatch.visualfiction.net.

Overwatch

[the_velociraptor]

The person who told me about this (one of my friends on dA) seemed to advertise it, and from what I can see, it doesn't look like an ARG. The Overwatch (and what he says) is a multi-sensory (something like that) story, using visual, audio, text, videos, et cetera. It's supposed to be based off Rook County (something like that).

royalthames made new posts to twitter last night between 8:36pm and 9:48pm. Here's what he wrote:

"A team from the main office came down to our branch about 10 days ago.
They were checking into a shrinkage problem we've been having throughout the chain.
I guess they are having a hard time getting to the root cause of the problem.
I helped them look for about a week, but I get the feeling that they weren't any closer when they left than when they got here.
Now that that are gone I hope to be able to get back to some of the other stuff.
I mentioned before that someone I knew got hurt because of what I've found out about.
It seems that he was looking into things that a fair number of people had strong opinions about.
Specifically, they had opinions about him NOT looking into the stuff he was investigating.
Along with thinking that he had more to do with the files I have found than he actually did.
So it appears that they ensured that he would not be poking his nose into any of this stuff any more.
A mutual friend sent me a copy of the last thing he wrote. It's a letter to a friend of his, and it looks like he was going to encode it, but never got the chance.
There is a code among the cleartext, though. It looks like it points to a web site that he was using. Probably at WordPress.com.
I'm not a wiz at crypto, but I have a little background. I'm going to see if I can get it, or at least part of it.
If I get anything that looks promising I'll post it here. Maybe it'll shed some more light."

I am skeptical at best about this story having picked up again. I guess we'll see where it goes. Two weeks ago we had a variety of leads, and the cypher was only one of those; now we have more or less only the cypher. We'll see what RT has to offer.
