PM's can definitely read the board and modify their game based on what we say, but they can't repeat things we say to us or other players, or acknowledge its existance.

If they do ( or at least do it after being told) I think they might remove the game? I don't know how strict they are on it though.

That's not true AT ALL. In one of my games I openly admitted to reading these boards. The TOS for this site can not control anything that happens off-site, in anyway. If they are saying through email that they read the site, there is nothing anyone can do about it.

It's just disappointing, that's all.

So I've been watching for a bit and have been trying to figure out these reports.

A Google search on Jonathan Clulow just pulled up a photographer. It seemed to be nothing important.

"J" says that he needs us to figure out how Razoah remains unseen. Supposedly the documents are going to help us figure that out. While I don't see how he does it, I did notice some interesting things. From the dates on the documents it would appear the cross realm movement occured exactly 3 months prior to the attack on the soldiers. They're off by 38 minutes. The case numbers drew my attention as well. The case number for the cross-realm movement was the same as the date it occured however the case number on the second one is one month AFTER the date it occured. Don't know what the means, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

It seems like Razoah opens these "anomalies" and maybe uses them to travel so he can pop up out of nowhere unnoticed. I still have no idea how he would be standing in front of someone and only that person can see him.

OMG IT'S HIM!

Quote:
The Office of Inter-Realm Communications is an organisation masked by shadows. Since the first cross-realm event in ancient times, they have maintained an eternal vigilance against those who seek to harm us. Since then, they have pulled the wool over the eyes of many people, maintaining a system which they claim protects us, when in reality in incessantly monitors us. I believe now is the right time to reveal them to the world, and to wake the masses.


In spite of this warped turn of events, I think I mighta figured out who the Him is....it was all so obvious!


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It's Dick the Ghoul Cheney!!!


Shocked


Well I did at least find the angel1.jpg and ran all the images through stegspy (it never finds anything), and it didn't find anything.

Whatever the hidden text was, game over....thanks for that. Question

A lot of games have imploded recently, guys, you really shouldn't take it personally. I've learned a lot from the games I've PM'd that imploded. Just let the PM have their learning experience, and be content knowing that this made them that much better at running games.

Unresolved Plot Points

Just to wrap things up since I couldn't do it like I wanted to:

The Razoah is indeed a supernatural assassin from Altessia. His mission is to eliminate the three guardians of the barrier between our realm known as the Trinity Children, of which two are already dead (murdered in the Hilton). Eventually, J would have died as well, but he will have left enough information to find the final Trinity Child, after which he would have to be found and warned. Details of the Razoah's weakness would have to be given to him, and eventually the Razoah would face the Trinity Child and be destroyed.

The OIC would go public with the existence of the other realm when evidence about the Razoah is leaked, and from then on there would be no more need for assassins (Hence there have been 33, there will be no more), since public awareness effectively means it's impossible for the Altessians to covertly break the barrier between our worlds. Peace would be maintained, and everyone lives happily ever after.

The use of numbers is simply mind games, the constant use of 3 was to invoke the hole religion thing.

Anyways, thanks for playing! No more religion in my next game, promise.

Well, I hope the game didn't implode just becasue of the 'religion' thing. Honestly, after The Da Vinci Code, nothing really offends me all that much.

Too bad; the story was interesting, the website was neat, and the writing was high-quality.

To the PM: thanks for letting us know rather than just leaving us hanging. I appreciate the honesty.

BTW, FWIW: Unfiction may be referenced in-game. It's just considered poor form. The only 'absolute' rule is that PMs may not post in the forums for their games. This is the official ruling from SpaceBass himself. Smile

Besides, lots of games have referenced Unfiction just to help potential players find us, i.e. I Love Bees.

Even so, if you decide to add a religious aspect to a future game, I would be willing to play it. I'm a godless heathen, so I won't get offended. I actually enjoy a religious element in my args... Very Happy

Anyways...bummer about the ending. It was fun while it lasted!!!

How unfortunate, and I was just getting really into this game myself... oh well, guess I'll just have to go back to obsessing over Eldritch Errors... (A good ARG that requires some input right now after such a big event if any of you are interested in joining me back on my main game) Similar supernatural themes involved in it since we're dealing with the fictional world of HP Lovecraft. /plug for EE... lol... Regardless you had excellent writing going on Le Juridique and I look forward to enjoying whatever you end up creating in the future, as you can tell I love getting THs so I will jump right on board anything else interesting that you may create! Good luck to you in your future endeavors!
