[trailhead?] "The Death"
postcard sent via email

Ok, so this is strange because it's something that doesn't really lead anywhere...

got an email sent postcard from Dark Postcards...

Quote:
To: The Dying
(img)

Hmm..
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (x60 rows of this)

*THE DEATH*

The "HA" lines are 67 characters long, wit an extra A as the 29th character.

The image included was this one - reading "K is for Kate who was struck with an axe"
It's from the Gorey Gothic Alphabet gallery of DarkPostcards.com

Best I can think of is tat other people will be sent similar postcards with different letters to spell something out.

and FYI, darkpostcards.com (whois) is fairly NSFW

The image this time is this one - no real letter, but the filename contains "aad" (the previous was "aak") from the "Ronan" gallery

Awman, Edward Gorey is like, my big love. Gorey ARG would've been the shiz. Still, looks interesting, in a...really cliched way.

will "be watching".

 I'm truly saddened.

Bemoaning the loss of anything resembling intelligence in most of the recent game attempts.

If that last was player-generated, I'd say the cause is already lost.

I'd at least edit that if I could. Sadly, I can't.

ETA: Thanks for wrapping condensing that, thebruce.

lol.

The HA thing reminds me of WhySoSerious, but that's about it.

Plus, the email is spoofed since death.com is a spam page.
