 		Well, I guess we can officially call this dead then. Sad Sucks because I found it interesting.

 		Not Dead!
Well, not the game anyway...
New e-mail from James:

Quote:
Dear All,

Life sometimes gets in the way of progress. It's all just far to real and in your face than you expect.

On October 27th my mother passed from this world. I apologize for not informing anyone of my whereabouts, but it was all kind of sudden. I've just got into my Aunt's place up in Baltimore. The funeral's tommorow and they expect me to speek. What am I supposed to say? If I tell them all that it was "Them" who did this to her they'd probably think I'm crazy.

Wes is here too, that bastard. Only he would have the nerve to show up like this. She wasn't even his mother! It was probably him that did it that snake.

Just wanted to say that I'm still alive,
-James



Something in Baltimore?? =D I'm in Baltimore! I will offer to travel and get anything, if it's needed!

 		wow, at first when I was reading it I thought, "aww, the PM's mom died" but then I realized it was James. Woohoo! Looks like the game is still on.

eegleburger, that was from the long email exchange back on p.1. I think ppl are just specing on where James/PM has slunk off to.

I thought you had to eat infected seafood or something for the red tide to "get" you.

EDIT: Just sent this to Wes:
Quote:
Hello Mr. Hargrove,

I came across your site and would like to hear more about the Church. There does not seem to be much information available, but what is there is extremely interesting to me. Is there more of this Living Text? Who are the Others, and the Cloud Saint? Is the time of Redemption coming? I have so many questions.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

petunia


I did the same back then, forgot to post it. Haven't received a reply. How 'bout you?

Seems the game carries on. I wonder if James'll ever use spelling correcting software... xD

 		New email from James.

Quote:
Up at my aunt's place I've been going through a few things she had of my father's. I actually found that letter! It was kind of faded and crumpled wedged between a few of his old books. It reads mostly like this:

"Dearest Archael,

We are pleased to inform you that [the smile post?] that you requested is open.
The Cloud Saint has reviewed your work and...[?] has been found to be good indeed.
It is important that you and...[?] immediatly. We await your answer.

Yours Within and Without,
Dendauk"

I don't know if that would be of any help.
-James

Achael? Dendauk? Have I missed something? Looks like Dendauk (possibly his father?) tried to get into the Coud Saint's organization... Maybe that's why he knew so much. Or perhaps it's the other way around, he wanted to infiltrate into the "Church".

EDIT: Also, I didn't get this e-mail....

 		I didn't get the email either
Nor, have I got a Reply from Mr. Wes(t)
Lame joking aside, I guess I called this dead a little early, eh? Yeah I didn't get the "Aunt" Email from James either, maybe he hates me?

 		Just got this from James. I asked how he knew it was THEM who killed his mum. Looks like this game is going to progress a bit.

Quote:
Thom,

It's always Them, at least in my life. They know me very well and pretty soon they'll know you just as well.

They say it was a freak heart attack. My mother, unlike my siblings and my father, was never sick. Even in her age she ran every morning. She even played tennis for God's sake! It could've been poison...who really knows? That bastard Wes probably knows. I met with him today. The freak was smiling when he offered his comfort. What a snake! I'm going to try and get in his hotel room tonight, he's probably at some bar drinking with his other Cultists...

-James


Haven't got a reply from him yet after I told him to be careful.

Yeah, I got one quite similar. Told him to be careful, too. I also asked him how did Wes get in touch with Them and how do they communicate.

I wonder when he'll be back from the trip to the hotel. Hope he doesn't get caught xD

Nope, haven't heard anything from Wes... maybe his ego won't allow him to respond to emails from anonymous wannabe followers. That, or he's hungover, or otherwise busy being a rat bastard of a half-brother to James. Twisted Evil

 		Hello, all. I'm back. Busy stretch of school is over. Looks like I really didn't miss too much. I did manage to send James an email and get a reply very similar to what's been posted already.

Here's mine, just in case it has different information:

Quote:
James,

My sincere condoloences on the loss of your mother. Your mother was killed? Wes did it?!? What happened? You have been vague my friend...please explain what's happening.

Doug


============

Quote:
Well Doug, I can't say for sure who did it. I know that she was always in good health...I never expected her to have a heart attack. That bastard Wes probably poisoned her somehow. I saw him again today...He was smiling! Can you believe that?

-James

 		I think we're gonna have to tag it as dead already. It sucks, 'cause I still wanna know what James found in Wes' hotel room.

Hey guys, I'm sorry that James dropped off the face of the earth, as the PM I just got so busy and I was doing it alone so there was no one I could fall back on. The good news is that I now I have two associates who are working hard to help me write what I hope will be an enjoyable experience for everyone. The bad news is that I'm not sure if anyone is going to want to play after I dissapeared without explanation. I would understand if you all just said no, but I hope that is not the case.

What you can expect if you are still interested:
-Live In Game Phone Calls
-Live In Game Chat
-Video Blogs
-Plenty of Email
-Snail Mail
-A live action Climax

Please tell me if you're still interested. Just call me Masque.

Cheers.


I told him I was game. You should too. =) It isn't easy to PM.
