A bright man does not give information easily. Tell Gabe that his report was most helpful and his preminary exam has started. Have you ever thought to look for me in different places? Maybe one that happily shouts out at you?

Wish him luck for me.

Good job. I'd pat you on the back but it might sting you a little. Your prelim exam is out there, now go find it.

On the side of the truck

edit: I wonder about the first part of the code...why all that to smack you in the face with the anwser at the end....however im kinda new to it all and i could definetly overthink this stuff

edit2: sorry to keep editing i dont know the protocol ......but i reckon the lucky charm stuff could just signify the end of the rainbow

I am enjoying following this ARG because it is one of the most interactive ones I've seen in some time. Anytime the characters in the game let you play along with them, that makes it fun to me. (like lmighty_gd)

Anyhoo, is jack "findthegold" aka "Bob"? He hasn't been available, and everytime one mentions Jack in the convos, the guy mentions anonimity.

E.g.
Quote:
The only person I haven't been able to account for is jack.
Bob says:
Care to repeat that kid?
Bob says:
Staying anonymous is tougher than you'd think ya know.

My most recent email from findthegold

Ah yes. But before I allow you to go further, you need to do what I've asked. Keep your end of the bargain and I'll keep mine. I hear ya freaked Bruce and Buck out a lot, very well done. One last thing your helpers may talk to me too but of course you'll get special treatment.

PS. The next clue will not be about sugary cereal so you won't get off easy.


Edit: I'm thinking I'm going to send my 'confession' to all three at the same time telling them to meet me in the irc channel that they had spoken to me before.
