I'm pretty sure this is a sequel to Red Monday. The PM is saying, "What if the game is a cover up?" makes sense to me cause I played the game but I can't explain it in a way that makes sense. I'm sure the other players will be around soon and can do a better job of explaining than I can about what to expect from this and how Red Monday might be it's foundation.


Gotcha!

Guess I'll sit on this one until more Red Monday vets chime in on what to do next.

 		I played Red Monday. If I remember correctly, we had to match up the different locations on the map that were color coded in order to see which spot they were going to strike first... or something like that Razz.

 		There is a similarity to the Red Monday maps, but if I remember right, weren't those maps based on that-tv-show-that-I-just-can't-remember-the-name-of-right-now

I'll remember the name in an hour and edit this post lol.
EDIT: lol the tv show was Jericho and it was never confirmed whether it was coincidence or on purpose.

EDIT: Here's the list of cities pinpointed on the Red Monday map

 		I thought about this last night and I'm not really sure if the PM of Red Monday would use the anonymous tool thingy to start a trail or not. So I can't say for sure. I do hope this isn't someone playing a silly prank but nothing surprises me any more.

If we can figure out what this means:
Quote:
cover up the thing you fear


If we put the map over (cover up) w/e we are suppose to fear, I think the X's and/or the O's might make sense. But I can't figure out what we are suppose to cover up with the map.

Oh a side note: I will try to check in as much as possible but I'm going to be pretty busy for the next couple of weeks.

 		I really need to get off the News and Rumors pages before I decide to play every new game on here. I guess i don't need to say it's peaked my interest... Hello Everyone!

I googled stegdetect, and the only working site I can get it from gives it to me in a stupid .gz fileformat. And the GZ unzipping program for it doesn't work right. Do you know of a working site where i can Download stegdetect?

Attached ZIP file contains stegdetect, stegbreak, jphide, jpseek, jphswin (jphide/seek in a Windows GUI; crashes often) and all related DLLs.

It's for Windows, and I don't remember what site I got it from. It's what I used to create the LGL scrabble puzzle. Smile

collecting a group was easy leading them astray was easy but the internet is a cop out the real world is where we look now the game is a cover up.

 		I got failed delivery notice for the first e-mail. It would seem that our new server doesn't like Toolground. I'm near one of the letter O areas.
