I got the same exact email. Must be a form letter......hopefully it's still really Ron and not someone else using his account.

That sounds vaguely ominous. Any thoughts as to whether Ron would put a puzzle in an E-mail?

Yay, I got quoted!
Hurm. Tim, Ron did say that he is a fan of encryption, and we've sent him encrypted messages which he's responded in kind to. I wouldn't put it past him to send a message through, say, a form letter if he was in trouble.

Great job! Maybe Kona can send something back with the same type of encrytion. Something to the effect of posting the other disks somewhere!

Good job dmon_man! I swear I tried that and got something like IMST and didn't go any further than that. I guess I should learn to double check my work
Maybe since he said he'll have more time to talk this weekend he'll be able to either email us more freely because no one will be looking over his shoulder or he can email us from home.
I just sent this off to him...

I really think that Your Money or Your Wife looks good too. Urban Hunt still seems to interest me a bit more though. Not sure exactly why. Don't know if it's because Urban Hunt sounds a bit more mysterious to me - the title of Your Money or Your Wife pretty much gives away everything - no secrets there. Every reality show has to have some sort of twist - hopefully Your Money or Your Wife will too. Reality TV shows just seem to suck me right in no matter what the subject matter. Series like Survivor suck me in because of the competition aspect. Trading Spaces interests me because of the do-it-yourself design tips. Average Joe was one of the best just because it was so funny and made fun of the whole genre. Not that I don't like regular tv too, I've got a couple of favorites I watch. Don't get me wrong, I don't sit around all day and night watching tv
What kind of shows do you watch? How could you possibly find the time to watch tv when you working for a tv production company though, hehe? Ever get to watch Nip/Tuck? Really I'd have to say it is one of the best non-reality shows out there. Even my mom watches it, although I can't bring myself to talk about it with her due to all those steamy parts.
Can't wait to see all the site updates! Along with the Urban Hunt and Tomorrow's Talk site I'll keep an eye out for the Your Money or Your Wife site. Not that I wouldn't keep a close eye on the sites anyway, I'm dying to learn more about those shows! What kind of updates are you working on? Eventually, I hope more details about the shows will be released like some juicy hints as to what will happen.
Tomorrow's Talk seems to be on an upswing then? All these new shows coming out has to be a good thing for the company. Looks like it may be time for people to really start talking about Tomorrow's Talk!
Kisses...

I'm so impressed with this crew (I just thought it was a form letter, and here he was, answering me in the same style to which I created our secret messages).

Your wish is my command (I've got to make sure he can 'chat' or something else in order to explain about how I was able to open the disks; too hard to do with our first letter method). By the way, he already has my phone number if he listens to his voice mail. But looks like Varin is also turning up the flirt buttons. We're double teaming him!

Hi Ron,
Usually I'm not a fan of the relationship shows. Sorry, the premise of Your Money or Your Wife sounds a little bit dorky to me (but I know it wasn't *your* idea, you just work for TT). In fact, I wasn't even going to watch it. Now that I know *you* are working on a new page for it, maybe I'll have to take a peek. The current state of reality tv suggests that it will generate a large audience. Even men will probably watch it, and I can guess what they will be doing:
Rooting for the guy to take the money, I'm sure. Never would a woman make that kind of choice. Even for a million dollars (if she was truely in love).
There are a number of chat boards around the internet that discuss, critique and support all the different reality shows. Can you take a look at them on company time (it would be researching potential audience demographics). Another idea to drum up interest in TT's shows would be for you to create a producer's blog for 'behind the scenes' commentary (like Rhett Reese did for Joe Schmo2) on the show's website. For example, someone could let the audience in on any 'behind the scenes' tidbits or alerts for dates and times when shows are going to be on tv.
Ever yours, with sugar on top,
Heather

Wow, I was sure I'd tried the first letter thing too but clearly wasn't looking hard enough as I got rubbish
Ron rocks, we need to make sure he doesn't end up being a casualty of the TT regime

If Ron's secret messages can be found pretty easily in his emails and his communications are being monitored, what's to say the monitors can't see it too?
Not that they have much of a reason to look for a secret message, but he is under suspicion...

True. But if he is assuming that we should assume the same.

That's why this time I stayed away from any talk of dread house, conspiracies, deaths, secret disks, etc. My secret message to him is still innocent and wouldn't really indicate anything to the monitors except that I would like to talk to him in a more private setting.

hehe, the only reason I used "Kisses" at the end was because I need a sentence that started with a K. For the life of me, I couldn't think of anything else. Well at least if my secret message is caught by whoever is monitoring him, they'll think I'm interested in talking with him privately for other reasons.

OK, it's probably not the best time to have him snooping round the offices but if one of you outrageous flirts gets Ron alone, could you ask him about the missing tapes in this image from the TT site:

because they've been bugging me. Thanks.

Wow, I never saw that full rez. image. One thing that's interesting to me is the style of the '1's. It's written in a way that I've only seen used by Europeans, especially Eastern Europeans. Anyone else know about this?
