[SPEC] I still believe that the PMs want us to activate more people from all over the world (not only Belgium). I can not remember where I read, that we must cover each squaremeter of the entire earth (or something like that).

And there was this quote from McGonigal

I have a webpage for my (bestselling) novel, which gets about 200-300 hits/day from all over the world, so I'm going to post something on the home page. My readers are going to know my hidden geek side Geek

, but it's only temporary, and hopefully some of them will be into it.

Anyone who keeps a blog should consider posting something there as well...I know some of you have already.

Weezel - I'll have a go at writing something later today.

I've spent the week getting slowly better at trying to explain to people what the heck I've been up to with my spare time lately, and as someone who is also new to ARGs I still remember being bamboozled by the concept...

I sent an email pretty much along the lines of what you're asking for to our new friend in Sydney (who I expect we'll finally hear from today), but I think I ended up giving too much information and not enough clarification... so I'll work on it.

I think it's really important to explain things like the fact you need flash to view the omphaputer and that the "www" is necessary for viewing www.thelostring.com - people could easily get frustrated and put off...

Yes, I wrote that reply. But I'm sorry to say no one has yet replied to my own queries about this.

I'm a bit hesitant to go too public with this. Doing that might ruin everything for you, because I can easily imagine a rogue going to that restaurant, removing the clue and then vanish with it never to be heard from again.

Should something turn up still, I'll let you know immediately of course.

So where do we stand with this? I really think we're not going to get too much further until we have this chapter. All that's going on now in the forums is wild speculation about all of the clues, which isn't getting us any further towards finding the truth. Confused

I don't know that we've made much progress at all in the past week, so I think we need to figure out a new way to either find players in Brussels (or bombard the PMs with messages that we're out of ideas for how to find it.)

I've facebooked a friend who works at the European Parliament in Brussels begging her, or anyone she knows, to go to Casa Manuel to look for this document.

I'm also going to search for any facebook groups for people in Brussels and messsage on the walls.

I'll let you know if anything turns up. But I'm concerned that the ompha-puter says the artifact has been recovered. Is this then all a wild-goose chase? The people in charge of the game must know the ompha-puter setting, but still seem to give the impression through Ariadne and Lucie, that it's still worth looking.

But I'm with Elizabeth that until we do find this chapter, we're stuck.

I agree with Elisabeth. Actually people are just posting Speculations and we do not progress that much (perhaps again a PM strategie to let more people get into this before things move again).

I tried several ways to contact someone in Brussels (Forum members, Belgian forum even a mail to someone on a Belgium penpal list) but without any success up to now Sad

But what me worries more. All omphalai (is this the correct plural form?) are pending, even though all available artifacts have been recovered (assuming that Brussel has been recovered as indicated on the Secret site).
I assumed that a new omphalos become active as soon an artifact has been recovered, but that was not the case with the Brussels artifact.

Taking your lead, Chid12, I just posted a request for help in a couple of MySpace groups based out of Belgium...
